NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-
QSB and therefore do not include all disclosures necessary
for a complete presentation of financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows in conformity with general
accepted accounting principles.  Such statements are
unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all
adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature,
necessary for a fair presentation of results for the
selected interim periods.  Users of financial information
produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the
footnotes contained in The Annual Report to Stockholders
when reviewing interim financial statements.  The results of
operations for the period ended December 31, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected
for the entire fiscal year.

2.    Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Security Federal Savings Bank of South Carolina
(the "Bank") and its wholly owned subsidiary Security
Financial Services Corporation.  The principal business
activity of the service corporation is real estate sales and
development.  In consolidation, all significant intercompany
items and transactions have been eliminated.

3.    Securities

In November 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a Special
Report, "A Guide to Implementation of Statement 115 on
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities," which allowed entities a one-time
reclassification of their investment securities without
tainting their portfolio.  This was to be done before
December 31, 1995.  In accordance with this Special Report,
the Company reclassified $27,900,000 of its held for
investment portfolio to its available for sale portfolio.

         Security Federal Corporation and Subsidiary
           Management's Discussion and Analysis of
        Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Recent Developments

Congress currently has various proposals or bills they are
evaluating concerning the premium differential between BIF
and SAIF funds in the FDIC.  Commercial banks who primarily
have BIF insured deposits are currently paying a
significantly lower amount for deposit insurance premiums
than thrifts, including Security Federal, who primarily hold
SAIF insured deposits.  The current proposal calls for a one-
time assessment of approximately 85 to 90 basis points per
$100 of SAIF deposits on March 31, 1995.  Both funds would
then, going forward, have the same, lower deposit premiums.
If this should become law, Security Federal would incur a
one-time charge of approximately $600,000 if the expense
were to be tax deductible.  Future FDIC premium expense
would then be reduced in future periods.  Management
anticipates the Bank, after consideration of the one-time
assessment, would continue to exceed all regulatory minimum
capital levels.

In October 1995, Security Federal received permission from
the Office of Thrift Supervision to open a full service
banking facility at the Wal-Mart Superstore on Whiskey Road
in Aiken, SC.  The branch will open in February 1996.

Changes in Financial Condition

Total assets of the Company increased $6.0 million or 2.9%
during the nine months ended December 31, 1995 primarily due
to an increase of $2.9 million in loans held for investment
and a $3.2 million increase in cash and cash equivalents.
Investments and mortgage-backed securities increased
$157,138 due to the securitization of $1.1 million of single
family home loans into mortgage-backed securities offset in
part by maturities and principal repayments on mortgage-
backs.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock increased 11.1% during the nine
months ended December 31, 1995 due to an increase in Federal
Home Loan Bank advances.  Real estate acquired through
foreclosure decreased by $555,123 mainly due to lot sales in
an acquired real estate development.  Real estate acquired
for development decreased $99,308 during the period due to
sales of real estate and an increase of $45,000 in the
valuation allowance on real estate acquired for development.

Deposits increased $1.9 million or 1.2% during the nine
months ended December 31, 1995, while Federal Home Loan Bank
advances grew $1.8 million or 6.8% in order to fund the
Bank's growth.

The Board of Directors declared the eighteenth, nineteenth,
and twentieth consecutive quarterly dividends of $.05 per
share in May, August, and November 1995 respectively, which
totaled $61,577.  Cash realized from the exercise of stock
options increased paid in capital by $39,380 during the
period.  Unrealized net losses on securities available for
sale increased by $64,011 during the nine months ended
December 31, 1995 due to the transfer of $27.9 million in
Treasuries from investments held to maturity to investments
available for sale during the "one-time reclassification"
allowed by FASB in December 1995 under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard 115.  Net income for the nine
month period was $561,540.  These items combined to increase
the Company's stockholders' equity by $475,332 or 3.3%
during the nine months ended December 31, 1995.  Book value
per share stood at $36.22 at December 31, 1995 compared to
$35.40 at March 31, 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In accordance with Office of Thrift Supervision regulation,
the Bank is required to maintain a liquidity ratio at
specified levels which are subject to change.  Currently, a
minimum of 5.0% of the combined total of deposits and
certain borrowings must be maintained in the form of cash or
eligible investments.  During the nine months ended December
31, 1995, Security Federal maintain an average liquidity of
6.25% compared to 8.14% for the same period in 1994.  This
decrease is due to an increase in loans held for investment.
The Bank's current liquidity is in line with management's
objectives and deemed adequate to meet requirements of
normal operations, potential deposit outflows and loans
demand while still allowing for optimal investment of funds
and return on assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources  (continued)
Loan repayments and maturities of investments are a
significant source of funds to the Bank, whereas loan
disbursements are a primary use of Security Federal's funds.
During the nine months ended December 31, 1995, loan
disbursements exceeded loan repayments resulting in a $3.3
million or 2.2% increase in total net loans receivable.

Deposits and other borrowings are also an important source
of funds for the Bank.  During the nine months ended
December 31, 1995, deposits increased $1.9 million while
Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $1.8 million.  At
December 31, 1995, Security Federal had $78.3 million of
certificates of deposit coming due within one year.  Based
on previous experience, a major portion of these
certificates will be redeposited.

Capital resources at December 31, 1995, were sufficient to
meet outstanding mortgage loan commitments of $14,400 and
unused lines of credit of $26.9 million at that time.
Management believes the Bank's short-term and long-term
liquidity needs will continue to be supported by the Bank's
deposit base and borrowing capacity.

Accounting and Reporting Changes

FASB Statement 107, "Disclosure about Fair Value
Instruments" became effective for the Bank for the fiscal
year ending March 31, 1996.  FASB NO. 107 will require the
Bank to disclose the fair value of financial instruments.

In May 1993, the FASB issued Statement No. 114 "Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan"  which became
effective for the Bank beginning April 1, 1995.  This
statement requires a lender to consider a loan to be
impaired if the lender believes it is probable that it will
be unable to collect all principal and interest due
according to the contractual terms of the loan.  If a loan
is impaired, the lender will be required to record a loan
valuation allowance equal to the present value of the
estimated future cash flows discounted at the loan's
effective rate.  This accounting change will significantly
change the troubled debt restructuring accounting by lenders
presently allowed under FASB Statement 15.  Adoption of this
statement did not have a material adverse impact on the
financial condition of results of operation of the Bank.

In October 1994, the FASB issued SFAS 119, "Disclosure about
Derivative financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial
Instruments."  The Statement requires disclosures about
amount, nature, and terms of derivative financial
instruments.  The statement amend SFAS 105 "Disclosure of
Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-
Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments."  The statement is
effective for the Association for the fiscal year ending
March 31, 1996.  In light of the Bank's current portfolio,
this statement is not expected to have a significant impact
on the Bank.

In May, 1995, the FASB issued Statement 122, "Accounting for
Mortgage Servicing Rights, an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 65."  The Statement requires that rights to service
mortgage loans for others be recognized as a separate asset,
however those rights are acquired.  The Statement also
requires that an entity assess its capitalized mortgage
servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of
those rights.  The Statement applies prospectively in the
Bank's fiscal year ended March 31, 1997 to transactions in
which an enterprise sells or securitized mortgage loans with
servicing rights, retained and to impairment evaluations of
all amounts capitalized as mortgage servicing rights,
including those purchased prior to adoption of the
Statement.  Based on the Bank's current mortgage banking
activities, this Statement is not expected to have a
material impact on the Bank.

companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities
of a financial institution are monetary in nature.  As a
result, interest rates generally have a more significant
impact on a financial institution's performance than does
the effect of inflation.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Income

Security Federal's net income decreased $88,962 or 26.7% and
$314,258 or 35.9% for the three months and nine months ended
December 31, 1995, compared to the same periods in 1994.
The decreases are attributable to decreases in net interest
income and other income offset partially by a decrease in
general and administrative expenses.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income decreased by $235,975 or 11.4% for the
three months and $423,000 or 7.3% for the nine months ended
December 31, 1995, compared to the same periods last year
primarily due to increases in interest paid on certificates
of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances,
offset in part by an increase in interest earned on loans
receivable.

Total interest income increased $201,528 or 5.3% and $1.2
million or 11.1% for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1995, compared to the same periods in 1994.
Interest income on loans increased $256,696 or 8.0% and $1.4
million or 15.6% during the three and nine month periods due
to higher yields and a larger average loan portfolio.
Interest income on investments decreased $42,691 or 7.6% and
$154,448 or 8.9% due to some adjustable rate securities
adjusting downward in rate and a lower average balance
outstanding in securities during the periods.

For the three and nine month periods, total interest expense
increased $437,503 or 24.9% and $1.6 million or 33.1% over
1994.  Interest on NOW, Money Market and regular savings
accounts decreased $23,483 for the three months and $15,257
for the nine months ended December 31, 1995.  Interest
expense on certificates of deposit increased by $393,477 or
39.4% and $1,139,431 or 40.2% in 1995 compared to the three
and nine month periods in 1994 due to increased rates paid
on renewing and new certificates and larger outstanding
average balances in certificates during the periods.
Interest expense on FHLB advances increased by $67,509 or
16.6% and $480,674 or 54.1% due to an increase in average
advances outstanding and interest rates paid on advances
during the three and nine months ended December 31, 1995.

Provision for Loan Losses

Security Federal's provision for loan losses decreased
$45,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1995 to
$30,000.  The provision decreased by $45,000 to $180,000 for
the nine months ended December 31, 1995 compared to the same
period in 1994.  During the nine months ended December 31,
1995, the Bank had net charge-offs of $82,660 compared to
$61,316 one year ago.  The Bank stops accruing interest on
any loan that is 60 or more days delinquent.  Loans
delinquent 60 or more days at December 31, 1995

Provision for Loan Losses   (continued)

were 1.0% of loans outstanding compared to .55% at March 31,
1995.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
total loans outstanding was 1.33% at December 31, 1995,
compared to 1.30% at March 31, 1995.  The Aiken area's
largest employer, the Savannah River Site, has begun
reducing its work force which has let to some uncertainties
for the local economy and slower real estate sales.  Future
additions to
the Bank's allowance for loan losses are dependent on the
performance of the Bank's loan portfolio, the economy,
changes in real estate values, and interest rates.  There
can be no assurance that additions to the allowance will not
be required in future periods.  Management continues to
monitor its loan portfolio for the impact of local economic
changes.

Other Income

Total other income decreased $22,268 or 7.3% and $209,143 or
18.8% for the three and nine months ended December 31, 1995,
compared to the same periods last year primarily due to a
decrease in the income from real estate operations and for
the nine month period only, a decrease in the gain on sale
of loans.

The Bank's gain on sale of loans increased $10,149 or 36.8%
during the three months ended December 31, 1995 compared to
the same quarter in 1994.  Gain on sale of loans for the
nine months ended December 31, 1995 decreased by $112,844 or
57.7% compared to 1994 due to a decreased volume in fixed
rate loan originations in 1995.  Service fees on deposit
accounts increased $20,552 or 14.5% for the three months and
decreased by $2,326 or 0.6% for the nine months ended
December 31, 1995 compared to the same time frames in 1994.
Income from real estate operation decreased $61,456 and
$53,556 for the three and nine months ended December 31,
1995 compared to the 1994 periods respectively.  The
decrease is primarily caused by an increase of $45,000 in
the valuation allowance for real estate acquired for
development.  Other income, which encompasses commissions on
credit life insurance, safe deposit box rental income, and
miscellaneous fees, increased by $12,574 or 25.8% for the
three months but decreased $32,648 or 18.7% for the nine
months ended December 31, 1995 compared to the periods ended
December 31, 1994.

General and Administrative Expenses

For the three months ended December 31, 1995, compared to
the same period in 1994, general and administrative expenses
decreased $111,747 or 6.1%.  The reduction was caused by an
$80,593 or 8.9% decrease in compensation and benefits
expense, an $8,237 or 8.3% decrease in occupancy expense, a
$7,253 or 4.4% reduction in depreciation and maintenance of
equipment, a $23,937 or 21.2% reduction in FDIC premiums,
and a $30,986 decrease in other expenses which consist of
data processing, legal, loan and real estate owned expenses,
and miscellaneous expenses, offset partially by an increase
of $39,259 in advertising expense to promote new checking
account products.

For the nine months ended December 31, 1995, compared to the
same period a year ago, general and administrative expenses
decreased $94,256 or 1.8%.  The decrease was due to
decreases of $98,607 or 3.7% in compensation and benefits
expense, a $29,631 or 9.7% reduction in occupancy, a
reduction in depreciation and maintenance of equipment of
$21,291 or 4.2%, and a decrease of $14,397 or 4.6% in FDIC
premiums, offset in part by increases of $50,771 in
advertising expense and $18,899 in other miscellaneous
expenses.

Amortization of intangibles expense arising from the October
1993 branch acquisitions from NationsBank of South Carolina,
NA were $116,310 for the quarter and $348,930 for nine
months ended December 31 in both 1994 and 1995.  The balance
of goodwill stood at $1.8 million and the core deposit
intangible at $1.2 million at December 31, 1995.
