Corporation is engaged in the mortgage banking, commercial banking, home equity
lending, and equipment leasing lines of business.  Intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Significant accounting
policies followed by the Corporation are consistent with those followed for
annual financial reporting.  The information furnished reflects all adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
the results of interim periods.

Reclassifications:  Certain amounts in the 1997 consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the 1998 presentation.

Comprehensive Income:  On January 1, 1998, the Corporation adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".
This statement established standards for reporting comprehensive income
in financial statements.  Comprehensive income is defined as the change in
equity during a period from transactions and other events from nonowner
sources.

      The mortgage banking line of business consists of Irwin
Mortgage Corporation and the related activities of Irwin Union
Bank.  The business is headquartered in Indianapolis and
originates, packages, sells, and services residential mortgage
loans throughout the United States.

      Net income for the first quarter was $5.7 million, up 44.2%
from the same period in 1997.  Mortgage banking results were
affected by a favorable interest rate environment during the
quarter.  Mortgage loan originations  were up 81.7% to $2.0
billion. A significant factor in this increase was the rise in
refinancing activity.  Refinanced loans originated in the first
quarter of 1998 accounted for 55.1% of total originations, up
from 23.3% during the same period in 1997.  Loan origination fees
increased $4.4 million or 51.5% from the first quarter of 1997.
This increase is a result of the increased production in 1998.
Gains from the sales of mortgage loans were $8.8 million in the
first quarter of 1998, up from $3.4 million in 1997.  This
increase was due to the increase in 1998 production combined with
better market pricing than in the previous year.

      The mortgage banking business maintains the flexibility to
either sell servicing assets for current cash flow or retain
servicing for future cash flow.  The decision to sell or retain
servicing is based on the current market conditions balanced with
the interest rate risk tolerance of the business.  During the
first quarter of 1998, $0.9 billion of mortgage servicing rights
were sold, compared with first quarter 1997 servicing sales of
$1.2    billion. Gains on the sale of mortgage servicing totaled
$10.0 million in the first quarter of 1998, up from $6.8 million
a year earlier.  The increase reflects an improvement in pricing
in 1998.

      The mortgage servicing portfolio totaled $10.8 billion as
of March 31, 1998, an increase of 0.6% from December 31, 1997.
Mortgage servicing assets capitalized on the balance sheet
totaled $88.0 million at March 31, 1998, compared to $81.6 at
December 31, 1997 and $68.2 million at March 31, 1997.  Included
in first quarter 1998 expenses is $5.0 million of amortization
expense relating to the mortgage servicing assets, up from $3.3
million in the first quarter of 1997.  The increase in
amortization expense reflects the growth in the mortgage
servicing asset.

      As a result of the increase in mortgage loan closings from
the same quarter in 1997, net interest income was up in the first
quarter of 1998.  Net interest income after the provision for
loans losses was $4.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 1998, up 23.4% from the first quarter 1997.

      Operating expenses, excluding mortgage servicing asset
amortization expense, were up $9.9 million or 40.1% from the
first quarter of 1997.  The most significant increase occurred in
salaries and benefits which were up $6.2 million or 40.3%.  This
increase resulted from the increased production activity during
the first quarter of 1998.

     Community banking activities are conducted by Irwin Union
Bank through locations in eight counties in Indiana. Net income
was up $195.8 thousand from 1997, or 14.5% to $1.5 million.  For
the first quarter, net interest income improved $928.5 thousand,
or 18.3%, from 1997. The increased net interest income is
reflective of a 23.5% increase in the loan and lease portfolio
from the first quarter of 1997.  The growth results from the
community bank's continued penetration of new markets in Indiana.
The provision for loan and lease losses was $570.0 thousand, up
$128.7 thousand from a year earlier.

     Following is an analysis of the community bank's net
interest income and net interest margin computed on a tax
equivalent basis:

</TABLE>

     The improvement in net interest margin reflects a shift in
the community bank's asset concentration to a higher percentage
of loans and a lower percentage of cash and investment
securities.

      Other income in the first quarter was up $477.8 thousand or
19.7% from the first quarter of 1997.  Sales of consumer and
mortgage loans generated a gain of $280.3 thousand in 1998
compared with a gain of $102.0 thousand in 1997. Additionally,
since the community bank continues to service the loans it sells,
servicing fee income was up 57.9% in 1998 to $407.7 thousand.

      Other expenses were up $972.8 thousand, or 19.9%.  The
increase was principally due to expanded operations in new
markets.

      The home equity lending business includes Irwin Home Equity
Corporation and the related activities of Irwin Union Bank.
Irwin Home Equity is located in San Ramon, California.  It
markets home equity loans through direct mail and telemarketing
and currently markets in 22 states.

      The home equity lending business recorded pre-tax income of
$0.8 million in the first quarter of 1998, compared to $1.2
million in 1997.  During the first quarter of 1998, the home
equity lending business originated $55.2 million of home equity
loans, up 23.1% from 1997.  Gains recognized from the
securitization of home equity loans totaled $5.2 million in 1997
compared to $4.7 million a year earlier.

      The home equity lending business continues to service the
loans it has securitized.  The servicing portfolio, which
includes loans held on the balance sheet as well as securitized
loans, increased 45.5% from the same date in 1997.  The business
earns a servicing fee equal to one percent of the outstanding
principal balance of securitized loans.  As a result of the
increase in the servicing portfolio, servicing fee income
increased 69.2% to $0.7 million in the first quarter of 1997.

      Interest-only strips are carried at their market values
which are determined using assumptions about the duration and
performance of the securitized loans.  At March 31, 1998, the
assumed annual loss rates ranged from 0.50% to 0.64%, prepayment
speeds ranged from 30% to 40% CPR (conditional prepayment rate)
per year, and the discount rate was 15.0%.  Included in other
income during the first quarter of 1998 was an unrealized gain of
$1.4 million recorded to adjust the carrying value of interest-
only strips to their market value.  This compares to an
unrealized loss of $4.0 thousand recorded in 1997.

      Net interest income before loan loss provision was $0.9
million in 1998, down from $1.9 million a year earlier.  Included
in interest income is income earned on the interest-only strip,
net of amortization expense. The decline is due to the timing of
loan securitizations in 1998.

      The business will maintain the flexibility of either
holding the loans it produces or securitizing them.  Management
will evaluate these options throughout the year in light of
market conditions and financial objectives.

      Operating expenses were $7.0 million in the first quarter
of 1998, up 19.8% from 1997.  The increase reflects the increased
production activities of the company.


Equipment Leasing

      The equipment leasing business recorded pre-tax income of
$9.6 thousand during the first quarter of 1998 compared to $5.3
thousand in the first quarter 1997.  Net interest revenue was up
$258.7 thousand, or 23.0% year over year.  Total net revenues
increased 9.1% to $1.2 million.  Operating expenses were up $93.4
thousand or 8.8% to $1.2 million.  Lease and loan volume totaled
$11.0 million during the first quarter of 1998, up 33.2% from
1997.

      The equipment leasing business has developed a strategy to
expand its operations during 1998.  Alternatives to be considered
will include becoming more active in the upper end of the medical
equipment price range, hiring additional field sales
representatives to cover manufacturing accounts more effectively,
and moving into new lines of equipment.

Parent Company (including Consolidating Entries)

      For the period ended March 31, 1998, the parent company
recorded a net loss of $0.9 million compared with $1.3 million a
year earlier.  The improvement was due in part to the income tax
expense or benefit generated at the home equity lending and
equipment leasing businesses which is recorded on the parent's
books.  For the first quarter of 1998, the parent company
recorded $322.0 thousand of income tax expense relating to these
lines of business.  During the same period a year earlier, the
parent company recorded an expense of $476.7 thousand.


Consolidated Income Statement Analysis

     Net interest income for the first quarter of 1998 totaled
$14.1 million, up 11.7% from the first quarter of 1997.  The
increase was the result of increased loan volume throughout the
Corporation.

     The loan and lease loss provision was $1.6 million for the
first quarter of 1998, compared to $0.9 million for the same
period in 1997.  See the section on credit risk for further
discussion.

     Noninterest income was up $16.4 million or 42.4% in the
first quarter of 1998 to $55.1 million.  This increase was driven
primarily by mortgage banking activities.  Total income from
mortgage loan originations, loan sales, servicing, and servicing
sales was $44.4 million during the first quarter of 1998, up from
$30.7 million a year earlier.

      Operating expenses also increased in 1998 as the first
quarter was up $13.6 million or 33.4% from 1997.  This increase
is due to the increased loan production activities throughout the
Corporation.

     The effective income tax rate for the Corporation was 40.9%
in the first quarter of 1998 compared to 40.2% in 1997.



Consolidated Balance Sheet Analysis

     Total assets of the Corporation at March 31, 1998, were $1.6
billion, up from December 31, 1997 total assets of $1.5 billion.
The increase in assets was accompanied by an increase in deposits
of $112.3 million or 15.6%.  A portion of noninterest bearing
deposits is associated with escrow accounts held on loans in the
servicing portfolio of Irwin Mortgage.  These escrow accounts
totaled $325.0 million at March 31, 1998, up from $218.7 million
at December 31, 1997.

     Shareholders' equity grew to $130.1 million, or $11.93 per
share, a 6.2% increase over the $123.5 million, or $11.23 per
share at the end of 1997.  The Corporation's equity to assets
ratio ended the quarter at 8.32%, compared to 8.55% at the end of
1997.

     Prior to the adoption of a new mortgage banking standard in
the second quarter of 1995, mortgage banking accounting did not
allow the full value of mortgage servicing assets to be reflected
on the balance sheet.  Since a significant portion of the
Corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio was generated prior to
the adoption of the new accounting standard, the Corporation's
mortgage loan servicing portfolio represents substantial economic
value which is not recorded on the balance sheet.  The following
table includes the estimated after-tax value of the servicing
portfolio at the end of the current quarter as well as the past
two year ends.

With the implementation of the new accounting standard in 1995,
this off-balance sheet value will decline over future years and
eventually be reduced to zero.

     In January 1997, the Corporation issued $50.0 million of
trust preferred securities through a trust created and controlled
by the Corporation.  The securities, which are publicly traded,
were issued at $25 per share with a cumulative dividend rate of
9.25%, payable quarterly.  They have an initial maturity of 30
years with a 19-year extension option which the Corporation can
exercise at any point during the first 30 years.  The securities
are callable at par after five years, or immediately, in the
event of an adverse tax development affecting the Corporation's
classification of the securities for federal income tax purposes.
The securities are not convertible into common stock of the
Corporation.

Credit Risk

     The assumption of credit risk is a key source of earnings
for the community banking, home equity lending, and equipment
leasing businesses.  In addition, the mortgage banking business
assumes credit risk despite the fact that the mortgages are
typically secured.  The credit risk in the loan portfolio of the
community bank and home equity lending business has the most
potential to have a significant effect on consolidated financial
performance.

     The community banking and home equity lending businesses
manage credit risk through the use of lending policies, credit
analysis and approval procedures, and personal contact with the
borrowers.  Loans over a certain size are reviewed prior to
approval by a loan committee.   The equipment leasing business
manages credit risk in a similar manner through the use of
lending policies, credit analysis procedures, and personal
contact with lessees.

     The adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses is
critical to the fair valuation of net loans and leases recorded
on the Corporation's balance sheet.  Management evaluates the
creditworthiness of significant borrowers, past loan and lease
loss experience, and current and anticipated economic conditions.
The allowance for loan and lease losses is reduced by loans and
leases which, in the opinion of management, are deemed to be
uncollectible.  The allowance is increased by provisions against
income.  The ending allowance at any reporting period reflects
management's opinion of the future loss potential of all loans
and leases currently recorded on the Corporation's books.

      As of March 31, 1998, the allowance for loan and lease
losses as a percentage of total loans and leases was 1.54%,
compared to 1.44% at December 31, 1997.  For the three months
ended March 31, 1998, the provision for loan and lease losses
totaled $1.6 million, 88.9% higher than the amount recorded in
the first quarter of 1997.  The increase in the provision for
loan losses results from an increase in nonperforming loans as
discussed below.  Net charge-offs for the quarter were $525.0
thousand as compared to $382.8 thousand in 1997.

     Nonperforming assets (loans 90 days past due, nonaccrual,
and owned real estate) were $11.8 million or 0.75% of total
assets as of March 31, 1998, up from $9.5 million or 0.64% at
December 31, 1997 and $9.4 million or 0.72% at December 31, 1996.

      The first quarter 1998 increase was attributable to a $2.6
million increase in nonperforming assets at the mortgage bank.
Although most mortgages are either government-insured or conform
to the underwriting guidelines of the government-sponsored
agencies that support the secondary mortgage market, the mortgage
bank has credit risk on those loans that do not receive
government insurance or that must be repurchased from agencies
due to lack of conformity to underwriting guidelines.  Over the
last two years, the government-sponsored agencies which provide
credit enhancement on the loans underwritten by the mortgage bank
have become more stringent in their adherence to their right to
seek recourse from the originator of loans.  As such, the
mortgage bank has had an increase in the number of loans it has
repurchased from the agencies.  This has resulted in an increase
in the nonperforming loans and other real estate owned at the
mortgage bank.  The mortgage bank seeks to cure the underwriting
defect in these loans and resell them to the agencies or sell
them to alternative investors.

      Additionally, during 1997 the mortgage bank entered into
the nonprime mortgage market which is comprised of borrowers who
do not qualify under the underwriting guidelines established by
the government-sponsored agencies for conforming first mortgages.
The majority of these loans are sold on a non-recourse, service
released basis to private investors.  However, the mortgage bank
retains the credit risk on any loans that are not sold.  Of the
total increase in nonperforming assets, $0.5 million relates to
these nonprime loans.

Liquidity

     Liquidity is the availability of funds to meet the daily
requirements of the business.  For financial institutions, demand
for funds comes principally from extensions of credit and
withdrawal of deposits.  Liquidity is provided by asset
maturities, sales of investment securities, or short-term
borrowings.  Seasonal fluctuations in deposit levels and loan
demand require differing levels of liquidity at various times
during the year.  Liquidity measures are formally reviewed by
management monthly, and they continue to show adequate liquidity
in all areas of the organization.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

     Interest rate sensitivity refers to the degree to which the
Corporation's short- and long-term earnings would change due to
changes in market rates of interest.  The Corporation's goal in
addressing this risk is to manage its businesses so that
movements of interest rates have an immaterial impact on net
income and on the value of its assets and liabilities.  To
measure its sensitivity to changes in interest rates and
appropriate hedging strategies, the Corporation uses a
combination of measurement techniques including simulation, rate
shock analysis, and gap analysis.

      The following table shows in summary form the Corporation's
interest rate sensitivity based on expected interest rate
repricing intervals for the balance sheet as of March 31, 1998 (a
"gap" analysis).  For example, a 30-year adjustable rate
residential mortgage held in the portfolio of Irwin Union Bank is
included in the "4-12 month" category since that is the time
frame over which the asset will reprice.  Some items, such as
certain deposit accounts, are non-interest bearing, but will vary
in balance due to interest rate changes.  Since the Corporation
relies on such accounts in its operations and would need to
replace them with "at market" liabilities should the non-interest
bearing ones be unavailable, they are included in the gap table
and in simulations as "non-market" items.

</TABLE>
                                                                            


      As the above table shows, the consolidated one-year gap at
March 31, 1998 was a positive $215.4 million.  This compares to a
positive gap of $143.0 million at December 31, 1997.

      Since the gap was positive at March 31, 1998, it means that
the Corporation's net interest income was positioned to benefit
from rising rates, or to be harmed from declining rates. While
traditional interest rate risk focuses on the changes in net
interest income due to interest rate changes, the Corporation
engages in other activities which are also affected by interest
rate changes.  Principal among these are mortgage loan
origination and servicing. Through the use of simulations using
regression modeling and option-adjusted valuation techniques for
modeling expected customer behavior, the Corporation attempts to
analyze and mitigate the interest rate risks associated with the
negatively correlated activities of mortgage loan origination and
servicing.  For example, if interest rates decline, management
expects an increase in mortgage loan origination income and a
decline in the value of mortgage servicing rights.  Management
attempts to monitor this exposure to traditional interest rate
risk as well as interest rate influences on production and
servicing value in a comprehensive manner.


Capital Adequacy

     Capital is a major focus of regulatory attention, with the
risk-based capital standard being the principal capital adequacy
measure.  Based on this standard, financial institutions are
currently required to have a risk-based capital ratio of at least
10.0% to be considered well-capitalized.  In addition to the
requirements for the risk-based capital ratio, Tier I capital of
at least 6.0% of total assets must be maintained to be considered
well-capitalized.  Equity and risk-based capital ratios for the
Corporation are as follows:

                          March 31,   December 31,   December 31,               
                               1998           1997           1996
                                                                                
Equity to Assets              8.32%          8.55%          9.15%

Year 2000

     The Year 2000 issue is the result of practices within the
information technology industry initiated years ago to program
software and computer chips to store dates in a six digit,
shortcut format.  For example, January 15, 1998, may be written
as 01/15/98 and the computer is programmed to assume that the
first two digits of the year are "19".  As a result, certain
computer systems will not accurately interpret dates beyond
December 31, 1999, and will consider dates beginning January 1,
2000 to represent January 1, 1900.  This could result in a
computer failure or miscalculations, causing operating
disruptions, including an inability to process transactions, send
invoices or engage in similar normal business activities.  The
Year 2000 issue exists across all industries and could affect all
businesses that use computers, but is particularly relevant in
the financial services industry served by the Corporation.

     The Corporation is actively addressing its exposure to the
Year 2000 issue and has five teams (one at each of its four
operating entities and at the parent company) focusing on the
issue.  The Corporation has developed a six-stage project plan
that is expected to culminate in final testing and implementation
by mid-1999.  The six stages include:  (i) an awareness campaign
throughout the Corporation to raise the level of importance and
attention beyond that of a typical "information technology"
issue; (ii) assessment of the Corporation's Year 2000 problem,
including contract review, a technical audit and an estimation of
remediation costs;  (iii) remediation of non-compliant systems
through repairs, upgrades or replacements of computer programs
and chips; (iv) testing of the Corporation's systems for Year
2000 compliance; (v) implementation of the remediated systems and
(vi) auditing of the completed processes and remediation for post-
year 2000 compliance.  The Corporation has engaged a leading
technology-consulting firm to increase its level of confidence
that the methods and standards it employs to address the Year
2000 issue are appropriate and comprehensive.
     
     The Corporation, together with its consultants, is currently
in varying stages of the assessment, remediation and testing
steps of its plan and cannot definitively estimate the extent of
the problem for the Corporation or the cost to remedy it.
However, the Corporation does not currently believe that the
costs of the remediation will have a material impact on the
Corporation's results of operations, liquidity and capital.
     
     The Corporation has developed a technology strategy that
primarily uses systems developed by third parties and has very
few internally developed applications.  Consequently, the
Corporation's principal focus is on assuring Year 2000 compliance
from its commercial application vendors.  In those instances
where the Corporation believes a vendor may not be compliant in a
timely manner, the Corporation is taking additional steps to
address its needs with alternative systems.

     Financial services require exact calculations and prompt
delivery.  If the Corporation's products are not accurate and
timely, it increases its exposure to risks such as client service
failure, regulatory compliance problems and disruption of third
party operations when it interacts with third parties.

     The Corporation currently expects to implement the necessary
changes to ensure that its internal operations are Year 2000
compliant prior to December 31, 1999.  To achieve this goal, the
Corporation is reliant upon its information system vendors to
provide Year 2000 compliant systems sufficiently before December
31, 1999 to allow ample time to test the systems.  There can be
no assurance that all of the Corporation's key suppliers will
achieve Year 2000 compliance in a timely manner. The failure of
the Corporation's vendors to successfully address the Year 2000
issue in a timely manner would have a materially adverse effect
on the Corporation's ability to successfully address the Year
2000 issue.  In addition, if the Year 2000 issue adversely
affects the Corporation's customers, this in turn could have a
material adverse effect on the Corporation's ability to collect
and service outstanding loans. Finally, even if the Corporation's
internal operations and customers are Year 2000 compliant, the
Corporation's operations can be materially adversely affected if
agencies and third parties (such as the Federal Reserve) with
whom the Corporation interacts fail to address the Year 2000
issue successfully.
     
     Any of the failures mentioned above could have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition and results of
operations of the Corporation.

                             Item 1
                                
Legal Proceedings

As a part of the ordinary course of business, the Registrant and
its subsidiary companies are parties to litigation involving
claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts, the
collection of delinquent accounts, challenges to security
interests in collateral, and foreclosure interests, that is
incidental to their regular business activities.  In addition to
such claims, the Registrant was involved, as of March 31, 1998,
in the following action:

Banda et al. v. City of Houston et al.  Irwin Mortgage was served
as a defendant in a class action lawsuit initiated in the
district court of Harris County, Texas in mid-March, 1998.  The
suit alleges that a Houston housing opportunity program, in which
Irwin Mortgage was a participating lender, used inaccurate lead
paint tests that resulted in a class of homeowners being
subjected to harmful levels of lead and property devaluations.
The litigation is at an early stage and it is impossible to
predict the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or to establish
the possible extent or amount of liability or potential loss, if
any, to which Irwin Mortgage might be exposed.
