Note 1.  Basis of Presentation
- ------------------------------

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Fund American Enterprises Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") and its
subsidiaries (collectively, "Fund American"). Fund American's principal
businesses are conducted through White Mountains Holdings, Inc. and its
operating subsidiaries ("White Mountains") and Source One Mortgage Services
Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Source One").  White Mountains is an

accepted accounting principles and include all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to fairly present the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Fund American.
These interim financial statements may not be indicative of financial results
for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1995
Annual Report to Shareholders.

Note 2.  Earnings Per Share
- ---------------------------

Primary earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of
common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding of 8,320,959 and
8,190,455 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, and 8,342,831 and 8,545,624 for the six month periods ended June
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Fully diluted earnings per share amounts are
based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, assuming full
dilution, of 8,320,974 and 9,245,268 for the three month periods ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively, and 8,342,859 and 9,596,395 for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
- --------------------------------------------

Results of Operations -- Three-Month and Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 1996
and 1995

Fund American reported net income of $32.3 million, or $3.87 per share, for the
six month period ended June 30, 1996, compared to net income of $75.1 million,
or $7.82 per share fully diluted, for the six month period ended June 30, 1995.
For the 1996 second quarter Fund American reported net income of $3.5 million,
or $.42 per share, versus $43.3 million, or $4.68 per share fully diluted, in
1995. Net income for the second quarter of 1995 includes three non-recurring
items: (i) a $46.2 million pretax charge to compensation expense related to
previously outstanding employee stock warrants,  (ii) a $66.0 million favorable
tax development relating to the sale of a former subsidiary, and (iii) the
receipt of a $9.7 million breakup fee, net of related expenses, from Home
Holdings, Inc.

Book value per common and equivalent share increased to $86.92, an increase of
$3.64 from the December 31, 1995 book value per share of $83.28.

Insurance Operations. Property and casualty earned insurance premiums for the
1996 second quarter and year-to-date totalled $25.8 million and $45.3 million,
respectively. Earned premiums will continue to substantially lag net written
premiums until 1997, since Charter Indemnity Company ("Charter"), which writes
about $80 million of non-standard automobile insurance in Texas annually, began
for the first time in 1996 to retain virtually all its written premium. The
operations of Valley Insurance Company ("Valley"), a northwest, regional
property-casualty company which writes personal and commercial lines, posted a
combined ratio of 98.2% for the 1996 first half. Valley had $34.0 million of
earned premium for the 1996 first half and had net written premiums of $37.5
million.  Charter posted a combined ratio of 99.1%

                                      -6-

for the 1996 first half. Charter had $11.3 million of earned premium for the
1996 first half and had net written premiums of $41.6 million. Valley and
Charter were acquired by White Mountains on December 1, 1995. A summary of White
Mountains' consolidated insurance operating results follows:

Fund American holds a 24.9% economic interest in Financial Security Assurance
Holdings, Ltd. ("FSA"). FSA continued to post strong results for 1996 through
the second quarter. From insurance operations alone, FSA's adjusted book value
per share grew at an annualized rate of 15.1% driven by the addition of $117.3
million in present value premiums originated during the first half of 1996.
FSA's adjusted book value ended the 1996 first half at $32.45, up $1.29 from
$31.16 at December 31, 1995. The actual 1996 growth in book value from FSA's
operations was muted by unrealized investment losses caused by increasing market
interest rates. On June 17, 1996, Fund American purchased an additional one
million shares of the common stock of FSA in a private transaction for $26.5
million.

The increase in mortgage loan production and payoffs for the 1996 first half
versus the comparable prior year period reflects lower market interest rates and
a corresponding increase in refinancing activity during the 1996 first half
versus the comparable 1995 period.  Additional information regarding Source
One's mortgage loan servicing portfolio is shown below:

(a)  Includes loans subserviced for others of $3,884 million, $4,039 million and
     $4,190 million as June 30, 1996,  December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995,
     respectively.
(b)  Includes loans in process of foreclosure.

Source One's net mortgage servicing revenue increased to $21.8 million and $53.2
million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively,
from $11.1 million and $38.3 million for the comparable 1995 periods.  The
increase in net servicing revenue during the 1996 periods is primarily the
result of $7.5 million and $27.5 million in pretax recoveries of Source One's
valuation allowance for the impairment of mortgage servicing rights for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively.  The 1996
recoveries reflect an increase in market interest rates which resulted in an
increase in the fair value of Source One's mortgage servicing rights from year-
end 1995 levels.  Gross mortgage servicing revenue, however, decreased during
the 1996 second quarter and year-to-date periods due primarily to decreases in
both the size of the servicing portfolio and average servicing fee rates.

Source One utilizes interest rate floor contracts to mitigate the effect on
earnings of higher amortization and impairment of the capitalized servicing
asset caused by changes in market interest rates.  Mortgage servicing revenue
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 has been reduced by $1.9
million and $4.9 million of pretax net losses, respectively, which represents
declines in the market value of Source One's investments in interest rate
contracts.  Source One's total losses on its interest rate contracts, as of June
30, 1996, cannot exceed their original cost of $5.5 million.

Net gain on sales of mortgages increased to $11.4 million and $24.5 million for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively, from $2.3
million and $5.7 million for the comparable 1995 periods, respectively. The
increases are primarily due to increased production and the related mortgage
loan sales volume during 1996 compared to 1995.

During the first quarter of 1995, Source One recognized a $28.2 million pretax
gain ($18.3 million after tax) resulting from the sale of $9.9 billion of its
mortgage servicing portfolio to a third party.

Investment Operations. Fund American's investment income is comprised primarily
of interest income earned on mortgage loans originated by Source One and by the
fixed maturity investments of its consolidated insurance operations. Investment
income increased to $29.6 million for the 1996 first half, from $27.2 million
for the comparable prior year period.   Investment income increased to $15.4
million for the 1996 second quarter, from $14.3 million for 1995. The increases
are primarily due to additional fixed maturity investments resulting from the
acquisition of Valley and Charter.

During the first quarter of 1996, Fund American sold all its holdings (2,042,572
shares) of the common stock of Zurich Reinsurance Centre Holdings, Inc. ("ZRC")
back to ZRC in a private transaction for net proceeds of $61.8 million.  Fund
American also sold all its holdings (2,928,100 shares) of the common stock of
The Louisiana Land and Exploration Company ("LLX") in a series of open market
transactions for net proceeds of $125.1 million.  The sales of ZRC and LLX
represented the majority of the $29.7 million of realized net investment gains
reported for the first half of 1996.

Expenses.  Excluding the previously announced $46.2 million one-time
compensation charge related to outstanding employee stock warrants which was
included in the Company's second quarter 1995 income statement, compensation and
benefits expense increased $13.4 million to $47.9 million during the 1996 first
half versus the comparable 1995 period.  The increase is primarily a result of
higher mortgage loan production volumes experienced by Source One during 1996
and the inclusion of Valley and Charter's personnel costs in the 1996
consolidated financial statements.

General expenses increased to $21.3 million and $41.2 million for the 1996
second quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, versus $13.8 million and
$27.4 million for the comparable prior year periods.  The increases are
primarily due to the inclusion of Valley and Charter's operations in the 1996
consolidated financial statements.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Parent Company. On April 2, 1996 Fund American purchased 3,142,906 shares of the
common stock of Travelers-Aetna Property Casualty Corp. ("TAP") for $50.8
million, including related expenses.  John J. Byrne, Fund American's Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer, recently became a director of TAP.

On June 18, 1996 the Company accepted for purchase 129,279 shares of its Common
Stock ("Shares") that had been tendered pursuant to its cash offer to purchase
up to 400,000 Shares at $80.00 per Share.  Since June 30, 1996 the Company has
purchased 322,071 Shares for $26.4 million in a series of open market
transactions. All such Shares purchased have since been retired. Immediately
following these purchases, the Company had remaining authority to repurchase
17,379 Shares.

Prospectively, the primary sources of cash inflows for the Company will be
distributions received from its operating subsidiaries, sales of investment
securities and investment income.

White Mountains and subsidiaries. On June 19, 1996 White Mountains completed its
purchase, for $79.9 million including related expenses, of a 50% interest in
Folksamerica Holding Company, Inc. ("Folksamerica"). Also on June 19, 1996,
Folksamerica completed its previously announced acquisition of Christiania
General Insurance Corporation ("Christiania") of New York for $88.0 million.
Folksamerica is a multi-line broker-market reinsurance company which in 1995 had
net written premiums of $159.7 million. At June 30, 1996, following the
acquisition of Christiania, Folksamerica had $1.0 billion in total assets,
shareholders' equity of $154.4 million and total capitalization of $229.9 
million.  

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
White Mountains' investment in Folksamerica includes (i) 6,920,000 shares of
ten-year 6.5% voting preferred stock having a liquidation preference of $79.4
million and (ii) ten-year warrants to purchase up to 6,920,000 shares of
Folksamerica Common Stock for $11.47 per share, subject to certain adjustments.
Folksamerica reported a book value per share at June 30, 1996 of $11.16.

Source One. Source One's investments, mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage
loan servicing portfolio provide a liquidity reserve since they may be sold to
meet cash needs.

Source One's working capital requirements have historically been funded through
its revolving credit and commercial paper programs.  These borrowings are used
to fund mortgage loan production until the sale of such mortgage loans in the
secondary market.

In the third quarter of 1996, Source One further utilized various derivative
financial instruments, including interest rate floors and principal-only swaps,
to mitigate the effect on earnings of higher amortization and impairment of the
capitalized servicing asset caused by changes in market interest rates.  The
performance of these financial instruments is expected to have a material effect
on Fund American's future financial statements.  Source One is expected to enter
into similar types of transactions to further reduce the sensitivity of its
earnings to changes in market interest rates.
