Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999

Total assets were $202.2 million at June 30, 2000 and $198.0 million at
September 30, 1999, an increase of $4.2 million or 2.1%.

Cash and cash equivalents increased from $6.8 million at September 30, 1999 to
$9.0 million at June 30, 2000, an increase of $2.2 million or 32.4%. This
increase was a result of a $2.8 million increase in deposits.

At June 30, 2000 the Company had no investments available for sale. This
decrease of $12.0 million from September 30, 1999 was primarily due to the
maturity of $10.0 million in Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") notes during
February 2000. The remaining investments available for sale were sold during the
quarter ended June 30, 2000. The proceeds from this sale were used to help fund
a $4.0 return of capital during the quarter ended June 30, 2000.

Mortgage-backed securities available for sale and mortgage-backed securities
held to maturity decreased from $4.8 million at September 30, 1999 to $3.8
million at June 30, 2000. This decrease was due to scheduled repayments.

Loans receivable, increased from $167.9 million at September 30, 1999 to $181.8
million at June 30, 2000, an increase of $13.9 million, or 8.3%. This increase
was primarily due to an increase in loan production offset by the sale of $2.3
million of loans. During the year, the Bank has increased its production of
nonresidential, home equity, and multi-family loans in an effort to increase
loan yield.

Deposit accounts increased from $160.8 million at September 30, 1999 to $163.6
million at June 30, 2000, an increase of 1.7%. This increase was mainly in
certificates of deposits, which have increased as a result of the higher
interest rate environment.

Borrowings increased by $9.6 million from September 30, 1999. These borrowings
consist of $6.0 million six-month FHLB advances and a $3.6 million note due The
Bankers Bank in Atlanta, Georgia. The FHLB advances were used to fund loan
growth. It is anticipated that these advances will be renewed as they mature.
The $3.6 million borrowed from The Bankers Bank was used to help fund the
special cash distribution of $4.0 for each share of the Company's issued and
outstanding common stock paid on June 30, 2000. The note is due on June 15,
2001. All of the Bank's stock was pledged as collateral on the loan. It is
anticipated that the note will be repaid during October 2000.

Paid in capital decreased $8.9 million from $20.1 million at September 30, 1999
to $11.2 million at June 30, 2000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the
Company repurchased 189,000 shares of its own stock for a total cost of $2.6
million. These shares were retired from issued and outstanding. Also, at the
February 2, 2000 annual meeting, the shareholders approved a Management
Recognition Plan ("MRP") for key employees and directors. The granting of the
MRP stock, 89,930 shares, resulted in an increase of paid in capital of $1.2
million, representing the fair market value of the stock on the date it was
granted, which was offset by an entry to a contra capital account, unearned
compensation MRP. On June 30, 2000 the Company paid a special cash distribution
in the amount of $4.0 for each share of the Company's issued and outstanding
common stock. The Company anticipates that the majority of the dividend will be
a return of capital to its shareholders. This distribution resulted in a $7.5
million decrease in paid in capital. Also due to the effect of the return of
capital on the fair market value of a share of common stock, the Company on July
3, 2000 adjusted the price of stock options granted to directors and key
employees on February 2, 2000 from $13 a share to $9.28 a share.

Unallocated ESOP stock increased by $532,471. The receipt of the $4.0 return of
capital on unallocated ESOP shares resulted in an increase of $657,088 which
will be used to purchase additional shares of the Company's common stock. The
ESOP trust using dividends that it had received in the calendar year 1999 made
an additional loan repayment of $35,972, which resulted in a release of an
additional 3,597.20 shares which were allocated to

                                       9
<PAGE>

eligible employees in January 2000. Also, 2,997.66 shares were allocated to
eligible employees as part of the normal repayment of the ESOP loan, which
resulted in a decline of $29,976. Unallocated ESOP stock decreases every month
due to the Bank recording the shares earned for that month that will be
allocated in the future to eligible employees.

On February 2, 2000, 89,930 shares of MRP stock were granted to key employees
and directors. Twenty percent of these shares vested immediately. The remaining
fair market value of the shares not vested, $935,207, was recorded as a
reduction to shareholder's equity. The 71,939 shares that have not vested will
vest over a 48-month period. Each month the Company records compensation and
benefits expense and reduces the unearned compensation MRP by $19,483.

Retained earnings increased by $0.8 million as a result of $1.1 million in net
income less $0.3 million in dividends during the nine months ended June 30,
2000.

Results of Operations

The earnings of the Company depend primarily on its level of net interest income
which is the difference between interest earned on the Company's
interest-earning assets and the interest paid on its interest-bearing
liabilities. Net interest income is a function of the Company's spread, which is
the difference between yield earned on interest-earning assets and the rate paid
on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as a function of the average balance of
interest-earning assets as compared to the average balance of interest-bearing
liabilities.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

Net Income. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 was $1,086,937
compared to $1,259,159 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, a decrease of
13.7%. This decrease was primarily a result of an increase in compensation and
benefits and a decrease in non-interest income which was partly offset by an
increase in net interest income.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased from $4,310,597 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1999 to $4,823,956 for the nine months ended June 30,
2000. A decrease in interest expense on borrowings accounted for $259,674 of the
increase in net interest income. Interest expense on borrowings decreased as a
result of a $3.9 million decrease in average borrowings outstanding during the
respective periods. Yield on interest-earning assets increased due to changing
the composition of interest earning assets. The Company increased average loans
outstanding by $17.5 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2000 as
compared to the nine months ended June 30, 1999. This increase in yield and
average loans outstanding accounted for the remaining increase in net interest
income.

Provision for Loan Losses. No provision for loan losses was made in either the
nine months ended June 30, 2000 or the nine months ended June 30, 1999. In the
opinion of management, based on its review of specific loans and historical loss
experience, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit
losses that were incurred as of June 30, 2000 and 1999. Accordingly, no
provision for loan losses was recorded during the nine months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999.

Non-interest income. Non-interest income decreased from $300,025 for the
nine-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $159,969 for the nine-month period
ended June 30, 2000. The Company experienced a decrease in loan servicing fees
due to a decrease in loans serviced for others. Gain on sales of loans also
declined due to fewer loan sales. A decrease in other income due to a loss on
the sale of a FHLB note during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 also reduced
non-interest income.

Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense increased from $2,612,305 during the
nine-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $3,257,161 for the nine-month period
ended June 30, 2000. Increases in compensation and benefits, occupancy and
equipment, and advertising during the nine-month period ended June 30, 2000
account for the majority of this increase. The increase in compensation and
benefits was a result of an increase in the number of employees, normal annual
increases in salaries of existing employees, ESOP expenses, and MRP expenses.
The

implementation of the MRP resulted in $331,298 expense during the nine-month
period ended June 30, 2000. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased during
the nine-month period ended June 30, 2000 because of an increase in depreciation
of fixed assets, due to the installation of a local area network and an upgrade
of the Company's computer hardware to accommodate the requirements of its
service bureau's software since March 31, 1999. Advertising increased during the
period ended June 30, 2000 due to the Bank's home equity marketing campaign.
Home equity loans have increased approximately $3.3 million during the nine
months ended June 30, 2000.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased from
$739,158 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $639,827 for the
nine-month period ended June 30, 2000 as a result of lower pre-tax income.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $353,235
compared to $415,507 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, a decrease of
15.0%. This decrease was primarily a result of an increase in compensation and
benefits and a decrease in non-interest income which was partly offset by an
increase in net interest income.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased from $1,510,966 for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to $1,620,982 for the three months ended June 30,
2000. Yield on interest-earning assets increased due to changing the composition
of interest earning assets. The Company increased average loans outstanding by
$22.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the
three months ended June 30, 1999. This increase in yield and average loans
outstanding account for the increase in net interest income.

Provision for Loan Losses. No provision for loan losses was made in either the
three months ended June 30, 2000 or the three months ended June 30, 1999. In the
opinion of management, based on its review of specific loans and historical loss
experience, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit
losses that were incurred as of June 30, 2000 and 1999. Accordingly, no
provision for loan losses was recorded during the three months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999.

Non-interest income. Non-interest income decreased from $112,820 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $15,559 for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2000. The Company experienced a decrease in loan servicing fees
due to a decrease in loans serviced for others. Gain on sales of loans also
declined due to fewer loan sales. A decrease in other income due to a loss on
the sale of a FHLB note during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 also reduced
non-interest income.

Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense increased from $969,186 during the
three-month period June 30, 1999 to $1,064,774 for the three-month period ended
June 30, 2000. Increases in compensation and benefits during the three-month
period ended June 30, 2000 account for the majority of this increase. The
increase in compensation and benefits was a result of an increase in the number
of employees, normal annual increases in salaries of existing employees, and MRP
expenses. The MRP expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was $58,449. Also
during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 the Bank's hospital and dental insurance
expense increased by approximately $34,000 due to a special assessment by the
trustee for the Bank's insurance plans.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased from
$239,093 for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $218,532 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2000 as a result of lower pre-tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company's primary sources of funds are
customer deposits, proceeds from loan principal and interest payments, sales of
loans, maturing investments, and FHLB of Atlanta advances. While maturities and
scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows
and mortgage prepayments are influenced greatly by general interest rates, other
economic conditions, and competition.

                                       11

The Bank is required by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") to maintain an
average daily balance of specified liquid assets equal to a monthly average of
not less than a specified percentage (currently 4%) of its net withdrawable
deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings. Monetary penalties may be imposed
for failure to meet these liquidity requirements. The Bank's average liquidity
ratio for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was 6.66%, which exceeded the
applicable requirements. Given its excess liquidity and its ability to borrow
from the FHLB of Atlanta, the Bank believes that it will have sufficient funds
available to meet anticipated future loan commitments, unexpected deposit
withdrawals, and other cash requirements.

As of June 30, 2000, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of all
applicable regulatory requirements. At June 30, 2000, under applicable
regulations, the Bank's actual tangible, core and risk-based capital ratios were
11.8%, 11.8% and 20.6%, respectively, compared to requirements of 1.5%, 3.0%,
and 8.0%, respectively.

Due to the Company's excess capital position, the Board of Directors continues
to consider opportunities to enhance shareholder value, including stock
repurchases, special cash dividends and a return of capital. A decision by the
Board of Directors to undertake any of these activities will depend upon a
number of factors, including investment opportunities available to the Company
and the Bank, capital requirements, regulatory limitations, the Company's and
the Bank's results of operations and financial condition, tax considerations and
general economic conditions. Upon review of such considerations, the Board of
Directors may authorize such activities if it deems them appropriate and in
compliance with applicable law and regulation. However, no assurances can be
given that any of these activities will in fact be authorized by the Board of
Directors in the future.
