Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
- -----------------------------------------------------------

     On May 1997,  the Issuer was formed for the purpose of  becoming  the stock
holding  company and sole  stockholder  of Alamogordo  Federal  Savings and Loan
Association  (the "Bank") and the Company was formed for the purpose of becoming
the mutual holding company parent and sole stockholder of the Issuer. On May 15,
2000, the Company became the beneficial  owner of 918,000 shares of the Issuer's
Common Stock,  and the Issuer sold 357,000 shares of Common Stock for $10.00 per
share  in an  initial  public  offering.  The  Company  did not  pay  additional
consideration to the Issuer for the shares it received.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction
- -------------------------------

     The primary  purpose of the Bank's  conversion to the capital stock form of
organization in 1997 and the establishment of the Issuer, and the Company as the
Issuer's  sole  stockholder,  was to establish a structure  that will enable the
Bank  to  compete  and  expand  more  effectively  in  the  financial   services
marketplace.  The purpose of the initial  public  offering  completed on May 15,
2000, was to enable the Bank's depositors,  employees,  management and directors
to obtain an equity ownership  interest in the Issuer. The public offering gives
the Issuer  greater  flexibility  to  structure  and  finance the  expansion  of
operations, including the potential acquisition of other financial institutions,
and to diversify into other financial services.  Because the Issuer has publicly
sold only a minority of its  outstanding  shares,  the mutual form of ownership,
and the Issuer's  ability to remain an independent  savings bank holding company
and  to  provide  community-oriented  financial  services,  is  expected  to  be
preserved.

     However,  while the  Company  intends to  exercise  its rights as  majority
stockholder,  neither the Company nor the Insiders  currently  have any plans or
proposals  which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person
of additional  securities of the Issuer or the  disposition of securities of the
Issuer;  (b)  an  extraordinary   corporate  transaction,   such  as  a  merger,
reorganization or liquidation,  involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) a sale or  transfer  of a material  amount of assets of the Issuer or any of
its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management
of the Issuer,  including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors  or to fill any  existing  vacancies  on the board;  (e) any  material
change in the present  capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;  (f) any
other  material  change in the  Issuer's  business or corporate  structure;  (g)
changes in the Issuer's charter or bylaws or instruments  corresponding  thereto
or other  actions which may impede the  acquisition  of control of the Issuer by
any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be deleted from a
national  securities  exchange  or to cease to be  authorized  or  quoted  in an
inter-dealer  quotation system of a registered national securities  association;
(i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination
of  registration  pursuant to Section  12(g)(4) of the Exchange  Act; or (j) any
action similar to any of those enumerated above.

     In the future,  the Company  and/or the Insiders may  determine to purchase
additional  shares of the  Issuer's  Common  Stock (or other  securities  of the
Issuer) or the Company  and/or the Insiders may  determine to sell shares of the
Issuer's  Common  Stock.  Any such  determination  will  depend  on a number  of
factors,  including  market  prices,  the  Issuer's  prospects  and  alternative
investments.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer
- ---------------------------------------------

     a. As of May 15, 2000, the Company directly and beneficially  owned 918,000
shares of the Issuer's Common Stock,  which  represented 72.0% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock on such date.

     b. The  Company has the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of
the shares of Common Stock owned by it.

     c. Other than the issuance to the Company of the shares of Issuer's  Common
Stock as of May 15, 2000,  the Company has not effected any  transaction  in the
Issuer's Common Stock within the past 60 days.

     d. No person or entity other than the Company has the right to receive, or
the power to direct the receipt of,  dividends  from,  or the proceeds  from the
sale of, the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock reported in this Schedule.

     e. Not applicable.

Item 6.  Contracts,  Arrangements,  Understandings  or  Relationships  with
Respect to Securities of the Issuer
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     As of the  date  of  this  Schedule,  neither  the  Company  nor any of the
Insiders is a party to any contract, arrangement,  understanding or relationship
among  themselves or with any other person with respect to any securities of the
Issuer,  including  but not  limited to  transfer or voting of any of the Common
Stock,  finder's fees,  joint  ventures,  loan or option  arrangements,  puts or
calls,  guarantees  of  profits,  division  of  profits  or loss,  the giving or
withholding of proxies,  or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of
which  would give  another  person  voting or  investment  power over the Common
Stock.

Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits
- -----------------------------------------

     None.


                                    SIGNATURE

undersigned,  the  undersigned  certifies that the information set forth in this
Statement on Schedule 13D is true, complete and correct.
