2. New Accounting Pronouncements

Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No.  130,  "Reporting
Comprehensive  Income," is  effective  for the  Company's  financial  statements
beginning  in  1998.  SFAS No.  130  establishes  standards  for  reporting  and

              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board (FASB) issued Financial
Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging
Activities".  This statement establishes  accounting and reporting standards for
derivative  instruments,  including certain derivative  instruments  embedded in
other  contracts,  (collectively  referred  to as  derivatives)  and for hedging
activities.  It requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets
or  liabilities  in balance sheet and measure those  instruments  at fair market
value. Under this statement,  an entity that elects to apply hedge accounting is
required to establish  at the  inception of the hedge the method it will use for
assessing  the  effectiveness  of the  hedging  derivative  and the  measurement
approach for determining the ineffective  aspect of the hedge. This Statement is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
This  statement  is not  expected  to have a  material  effect on the  Company's
consolidated financial statements.

5.  Commitments

In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments that are not
reflected in the balance  sheet.  Firm  commitments  to  originate  mortgage and
commercial loans were $13.5 million at September 30, 1998.

On  June 6,  1998  the  Bank  entered  into a lease  for  1,500  square  feet of
additional  office  space.  This  space was needed as a result of the growth the
Bank has  experienced  in  recent  years.  The term of the lease is for five (5)
years, with the Bank having an option to renew the lease for one additional five
(5) year  period.  The lease  provides  for annual rent of $36,000 for the first
year and $37,500 for the remainder of the initial lease term.

The Company replaced the Consulting Agreement ("Agreement") with the Chairman of
the Board of Directors ("Chairman"),  who also holds the titles of President and
Chief Executive Officer with a new agreement effective May 1, 1998. The terms of
the Agreement  stipulate that the Chairman shall provide consulting  services to
the Company in his capacity as President,  Chief Executive  Officer and Chairman
of the  Board of  Directors  for a three  year term  commencing  May 1, 1998 and
ending on April  30,  2001.  The term  shall  automatically  be  extended  for a
one-year period beyond the then effective  expiration date on May 1 of each year
commencing  on May 1, 1999  unless the  Company  notifies  the  Chairman  of its
intention not to continue the  Agreement.  The Chairman  shall receive an annual
consulting  fee of  $120,000,  an annual  reimbursement  of  $12,000  for office
expenses and direct  reimbursement  of all other reasonable  business  expenses.
This  Agreement  may be  terminated  by the Board of  Directors  at any time for
cause. Should certain events constituting a change in control occur, the Company
shall pay the Chairman a lump sum payment  consisting  of the  aggregate  amount
payable  under the  Agreement  had he  continued  to  provide  services  for the
remainder of the term of the Agreement.

6.  Stock Option Plan

Effective  May 1, 1998 the  Company's  Board of Directors  adopted the Home Port
Bancorp,  Inc.  Directors  Restricted  Stock  Option  Plan  ("Plan").  The  Plan
authorizes the grant of non-qualified  stock options to "Participants",  who are
defined as Directors of the Company who are not  employees or paid  consultants.
The Plan is administered  by the Company's  Compensation  Committee,  which must
include at least two non-employee members of the Company's Board of Directors. A
total of 25,000 shares of the Company's  Common Stock ("Common Stock") have been
reserved for issuance under the Plan. Options are granted pursuant to a formula.
The  formula  provides  that each  incumbent  member of the  Company's  Board of
Directors be offered a grant of options to purchase up to 5,000 shares of Common
Stock, 20% of which vest upon grant, with the remainder vesting ratably over the
next four years.  Options are to be granted at fair market value,  calculated by
averaging the bid and ask price of the Common Stock over the twenty trading days
prior to the date of the grant.  Options  granted expire ten years from the date
of grant (the Board is  currently  reviewinlg  the  provisions  which  relate to
events which will permit  exercise of the  options.) In the event of a change of
control,  as  defined  in the Plan,  all  options  granted  under the Plan shall
immediately become fully vested.

As of September 30, 1998, options to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock were
outstanding,  of which  5,000  shares  were  vested.  No  shares  are  currently
available  for future  grant  under this Plan.  Stock  option  plan  activity is
summarized in the following table:

</TABLE>

The  Financial   Accounting   Standards  board  issued  Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 123,  Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation  ("SFAS
123"). The Statement encourages companies to adopt a new accounting method based
on the  estimated  fair value of employee  stock  options and other stock awards
under which  compensation  cost is measured at the grant date based on the value
of the award and is recognized over the service period.  The Company applies APB
Opinion No. 25 in accounting for stock options and, accordingly, no compensation
expense has been recognized in the financial statements.

7. Loss on "Check-Kiting"

In March 1998 the Company  announced  that an  investigation  by Nantucket  Bank
management revealed an apparent  "check-kiting"  scheme by one of its customers,
whereby  checks drawn on Nantucket Bank were timed to be covered by checks drawn
on another  bank while  checks  drawn on that other bank were  covered by checks
drawn on Nantucket Bank. The consequences of the described "check-kiting" caused
an overdraft of $518,000.  A charge of $560,000,  which included estimated legal
and other collection  expenses,  was recognized in the first quarter of 1998. On
July 3,  1998  Nantucket  Bank  entered  into a  settlement  agreement  with the
customer.  Pursuant to the terms of this settlement agreement, the Bank received
funds of $100,000,  which was  recognized as a recovery in the second quarter of
1998. In addition,  the Bank also received a second  mortgage on two  properties
owned by the customer and a promissory note of $447,200.  Under the terms of the
promissory note the customer is required to make monthly payments  beginning May
1,  1999  and  continuing  through  October  1,  2018.  Proceeds  from  both the
promissory  note and second  mortgages  will be recognized  on a cash basis.  No
additional proceeds were received in the third quarter of 1998.

8.  Earnings per share

The Company has adopted the  provisions  of SFAS No. 128,  "Earnings Per Share."
This statement  establishes  standards for computing and presenting earnings per
share (EPS) and applies to  entities  with  publicly  held  common  stock.  This
statement  replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic
EPS. It also requires dual  presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of
<PAGE>
                    Home Port Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

the income  statement  for all entities  with  complex  capital  structures  and
requires a  reconciliation  of the numerators and  denominators of the basic and
diluted EPS  computations.  This  statement  also requires a restatement  of all
prior-period  EPS data  presented.  At September 30, 1998 there is no difference
between  the  Company's  computation  of basic and  diluted  earnings  per share
because the effect of stock options issued and unexercised is anti-dilutive.
At December 31, 1997 the Company did not have a complex capital structure.

Preliminary Note in Regard to Forward-looking  Statements. This quarterly report
on Form  10-QSB  contains  forward-looking  statements.  For this  purpose,  any
statements  contained  herein that are not statements of historical  fact may be
deemed to be  forward-looking  statements,  within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended.  Without  limiting the  foregoing,  the
words "believes,"  "anticipates," "plans," "expects" and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. There are a number of important
factors that could cause the  registrant's  actual results to differ  materially
from  those  contemplated  by such  forward-looking  statements.  These  factors
include,  without  limitation,  those set forth below under the caption "Certain
Factors That May Affect Future Results." These and other risks are also detailed
from time to time in the  registrant's  filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     Certain  Factors That May Affect Future  Results.  The following  important
factors,  among others,  could cause actual  results to differ  materially  from
those contemplated by  forward-looking  statements made in this quarterly report
on Form 10-QSB or presented  elsewhere by management from time to time.  Defined
terms used elsewhere in this quarterly  report have the same meanings  herein as
therein. A number of uncertainties  exist that could affect the Company's future
operating results,  including,  without limitation, the Bank's continued ability
to originate  quality  loans,  fluctuating  interest  rates,  real estate market
conditions  on  Nantucket,  general and local  economic  conditions,  the Bank's
continued ability to attract and retain deposits, new accounting pronouncements,
and changing regulatory requirements.

                           Consolidated Balance Sheet

The Company's  total assets grew by $55 million,  or 26.3% during the first nine
months of 1998 to $263.8  million at September  30, 1998 from $208.8  million at
December 31, 1997.  For the comparable  nine month period in 1997,  total assets
increased by $11.1 million, or 5.8%, to $201 million from $189.9 million.  Major
balance sheet categories are discussed in detail below.

Net loans  outstanding  (including  loans held for sale) were $216.2  million at
September 30, 1998, an increase of $41.3 million,  or 23.6%, from $174.9 million
at December 31, 1997. For the comparable  period in 1997,  loans increased $15.9
million,  or 10.5%,  to $167.2 million from $151.3  million.  Loan sales totaled
$28.8 million  during the first nine months of 1998 as compared to $10.5 million
for the corresponding  1997 period.  Mortgage loan  originations  totaled $114.4
million during the 1998 period and $52.1 million in the comparable  1997 period.
The increase in loan  originations  in 1998 is  attributed to strong real estate
sales activity on Nantucket,  an increase in  refinancing  activity due to lower
interest rates and the Bank's marketing  efforts.  The Bank's lending activities
are conducted solely on Nantucket.

Total  deposits  increased  by $57.5  million,  or 40.4%,  to $200.0  million at
September 30, 1998 from $142.4 million at December 31, 1997. For the nine months
ending September 30, 1997,  deposits increased $7.8 million,  or 5.8%, to $142.9
million.  The increase in deposits in 1998 is attributed to the strong Nantucket
economy  and the  Bank's  marketing  efforts.  Substantially  all of the  Bank's
deposits  are from  Nantucket-related  individuals,  businesses  and  government
entities.  Brokered deposits, a minor funding source,  decreased to $1.3 million
at September 30, 1998 from $2.6 million a year earlier.

million at September  30, 1998, a decrease of $4.3 million from the December 31,
1997 total of $41.7 million.

Total  stockholders'  equity  increased  by $1.5  million  to $23.4  million  at
September  30,  1998 from $21.9  million at December  31,  1997.  This  increase
reflects  net  income of $2.5  million  less  cash  dividends  declared  of $1.1
million.

                              Results of Operations


For the quarter  ended  September 30, 1998,  the Company  reported net income of
$1.0 million or $0.57 per basic and diluted share compared to net income of $822
thousand or $0.45 per basic and diluted  share for the quarter  ended  September
30, 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998 net income totaled $2,512
million,  or $1.36 per basic and diluted  share,  compared to $2.4  million,  or
$1.32 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable 1997 period.

Net income in 1998 has been affected by non-recurring  charges,  which primarily
consist of the  previously  announced  check-kiting  loss.  The Company has also
incurred  certain  non-recurring  expenses in conjunction  with the formation of
it's  subsidiary N. Realty  Corp.,  which intends to elect to be taxed as a real
estate  investment  trust for  federal and  Massachusetts  tax  purposes.  These
non-recurring  charges  have  reduced  net  income  for the three and nine month
periods   ending   September  30,  1998  by  $80  thousand  and  $450  thousand,
respectively, on an after-tax basis.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income  increased $609 thousand,  or 27.6%, in the third quarter of
1998 as compared to the prior year quarter. For the nine months ending September
30, 1998, net interest income  increased by $1.1 million,  or 16.9%, as compared
to the prior  year.  On a fully  tax-equivalent  basis  this  increase  was $1.2
million for the year-to-date periods. The increase in net interest income is due
to an increase in the average volume of loans and deposits offset by a reduction
in the  interest  rate  spread.  Additional  information  on  average  balances,
interest and yields is included in the following two tables:

Non-interest income

Non-interest income increased to $318 thousand in the third quarter of 1998 from
$272  thousand  in the  comparable  1997  quarter.  For the  nine  months  ended
September  30, 1998  non-interest  income  increased to $842  thousand from $720
thousand in the comparable 1997 period. These increases were due to increases in
deposit service fees as a result of increases in deposits, increases in merchant
credit card processing fees as a result of additional  volume and an increase in
gains  from  the  sale  of  loans  resulting  from  a  favorable  interest  rate
environment.

Non-interest expense

Non-interest  expense  increased by $398 thousand,  or 35.2%, to $1.5 million in
the third quarter of 1998 from $1.1 million in the comparable  1997 period.  For
the nine months ended  September 30, 1998  non-interest  expense,  excluding the
effect of the "check-kiting" situation, increased by $899 thousand, or 28.0%, to
$4.1  million  from $3.2  million in 1997.  Approximately  one-third of both the
quarter and year-to-date  increases are due to  non-recurring  costs incurred in
conjunction  with the formation of N. Realty Corp.  The remaining  increases are
due to  staffing  and other  costs to service  the  additional  loan and deposit
business in 1998.

Return on Equity

Return on average equity  decreased to an annualized rate of 14.95% for the nine
months ended  September  30, 1998 from 15.64% for the same period in 1997.  This
decrease is the result of the previously described non-recurring expenses.

Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1998 was $3.1 million or 1.41% of
total loans compared to $2.6 million,  or 1.47% of total loans,  at December 31,
1997.  During the nine months  ending  September  30, 1998 the loan loss reserve
increased by $490  thousand due to  recoveries  of $393 thousand and a loan loss
provision of $113  thousand,  offset by  charge-offs  of $16 thousand.  The Bank
believes its current level of loan loss reserves to be adequate.  Any unforeseen
future  economic  problems,   however,  could  lead  to  the  Bank  experiencing
additional delinquencies that may require additional provisions for loan losses.

Non-performing Loans and Other Real Estate Owned

The Bank's non-performing loans totaled $278 thousand at September 30, 1998, all
which  were  accruing  loans  with  payments  past  due  ninety  or  more  days.
Non-performing  loans at  December  31, 1997  totaled  $10  thousand of past due
accruing  loans.  None of  these  loans  were  to  affiliated  persons.  At both
September  30,  1998 and  December  31,  1997 the Bank had no other real  estate
owned. The Bank had no loans which were considered "impaired" within the meaning
of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 114 and 118 at
either June 30, 1998 or December 31, 1997.

At September 30, 1998  management  has  identified  $891 thousand of loans that,
while currently performing, may pose potential problems due to some doubts about
the ability of the borrowers to comply with all of their present loan  repayment
terms.  The  resolution of these loans is not yet known.  The Bank believes that
its  allowance  for loan losses is adequate to absorb any losses that may result
from these loans.

Income Taxes

The Company's effective income tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 1998
was 34.9%  compared to 39.2% for the quarter ended  September 30, 1997.  For the
nine months ended  September 30, 1998 the effective tax rate was 34.7%  compared

              Unaudited Interim Information for September 30, 1998

to 39.2% in the comparable 1997 period.  The lower effective tax rate in 1998 is
reflective of the proportion of income earned by certain  non-bank  subsidiaries
that is taxed,  for state tax purposes,  at lower rates. In 1998 more income was
generated through non-bank subsidiaries as compared to 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Substantially  all of the  Company's  funds are  generated  through  its banking
subsidiary,   Nantucket   Bank.  The  Bank's  sources  are  customer   deposits,
amortization  and payoffs of loans,  advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Boston,  sale  of  loans  in the  secondary  market,  maturities  and  sales  of
securities and positive cash flows generated from operations. As a member of the
Depositors'  Insurance  Fund,  the  Bank  also has a right  to  borrow  from the
Depositors  Insurance Fund for short-term cash needs by pledging certain assets,
although it has never  exercised  this right.  The Bank's  liquidity  management
program is designed to assure that  sufficient  funds are  available to meet its
daily needs.

The Bank believes its capital  resources,  including  deposits,  scheduled  loan
repayments,  revenue  generated from the sales of loans and  securities,  unused
borrowing  capacity at the Federal  Home Loan Bank of Boston,  and revenue  from
other sources will be adequate to meet its funding commitments.

At September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 the Company's and the Bank's capital
ratios were in excess of regulatory requirements.

Year 2000 Update

     This  report  has been  issued  under  the  guidelines  of the  "Year  2000
Information  and Readiness  Disclosure Act of 1998" ("Act") and should be viewed
within the  guidelines of the Act regarding the Year 2000 problem in general and
the Bank's efforts to address the Year 2000 problem.

The Company and the Bank are subject to the  regulations of the Federal  Reserve
Bank, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Federal Financial
Institutions  Examination  Council.  These  agencies have issued Year 2000 (Y2K)
Guidelines  that  establish  minimum  standards  for  safety and  soundness  and
describe certain essential steps that each supervised financial institution must
take to become Year 2000 ready. The Guidelines require a bank to:

          ensure the involvement of the Board of Directors and management in the
          institution's Year 2000 efforts,

          adopt a written project plan,

          renovate its mission-critical systems,

          complete tests of the renovated mission-critical systems by specific
          deadlines,

          plan for contingencies, and

          manage customer risk.

              Unaudited Interim Information for September 30, 1998

The following  paragraphs  describe the Company's  current status as regards the
Y2K issue.  Both the Company's and the Bank's Year 2000 efforts are contained in
the  Bank's  Y2K  Project  Plan  (Plan).  The Plan  addresses  both  information
technology (IT) and non-information  technology (non-IT) systems.  Substantially
all  of  the  software  used  by  the  Bank  is  provided  by  outside  vendors.
Mission-critical  on-line transaction  processing and data warehousing  services
are provided by a data  processing  vendor.  Other,  less critical,  systems are
supported by purchased  applications software. The Bank has and will continue to
utilize both  internal and  external  resources to complete its Y2K  remediation
efforts.

State of readiness:
The Bank's Plan  includes an  assessment  of its computer  hardware and software
systems and vendor supplied  systems.  The Plan divides the process of achieving
Year  2000  compliance  into five  phases:  Awareness,  Assessment,  Renovation,
Validation   and   Implementation.    The   Bank   is   continually   evaluating
mission-critical vendor plans and monitoring project milestones for all systems.

For IT systems, the Bank has substantially  completed the Awareness,  Assessment
and Renovation  phases.  The Bank continues to work closely with the vendor (NCR
Corporation)  that supplies it's  mission-critical  data warehousing and on-line
transaction  processing  system. The Bank is currently in the process of testing
this key system to  validate  its Year 2000  readiness.  Other IT systems are in
either the validation  phase or the  implementation  phase.  The Bank expects to
test all but one of it's IT  systems in the 4th  quarter of 1998.  The Bank will
continue  testing  throughout  1999 to  ensure  that  systems  remain  Year 2000
compliant.

The Bank is also addressing the Year 2000 readiness of embedded microcontrollers
in  non-IT  systems.  The  Bank  accelerated  the  installation  of a  new  Year
2000-compliant  telephone and voice-mail system during the third quarter of 1998
due in part to Year 2000 concerns.  Other non-IT  systems that contain  embedded
microcontrollers  are  mostly in the  validation  process.  One system is in the
assessment phase.

Costs to address Year 2000 issues:
Included  in  other  non-interest  expenses  for the  nine-month  period  ending
September 30, 1998 are charges totaling  approximately $30 thousand,  consisting
of personnel costs, consulting fees and depreciation expense,  incurred in order
for the Bank's computer systems to properly  function properly in the year 2000.
The total remaining cost of the Year 2000 project is estimated at  approximately
$60 thousand.  It is not  anticipated  that material  incremental  costs will be
incurred  in any single  period.  The  Company  will  continue  to utilize  both
internal and  external  resources  to update,  or replace,  develop and test all
software  information systems for Year 2000  modifications.  The Company expects
that the  majority of the costs yet to be incurred  will be to replace or update
existing  hardware and  software,  which will be  capitalized  and  amortized in
accordance with the Company's  existing  accounting  policy.  In most instances,
upgrades  to  computer  hardware  and  software  are being made to  improve  the
capacity  and  performance  of the  systems  as well  as to  achieve  Year  2000
compliance. Maintenance and modification costs will be expensed as incurred.

              Unaudited Interim Information for September 30, 1998

The costs of the project  and the date on which the Bank plans to complete  Year
2000  testing  are based on  management's  best  estimates,  which were  derived
utilizing  numerous   assumptions  of  future  events  including  the  continued
availability  of certain  resources,  third party  modification  plans and other
factors.

Risks of Year 2000 issues:
While the Bank is working  closely  with its  significant  third party  vendors,
there can be no guarantee that the systems of these vendors, or other companies,
on which the Bank's systems rely, will be fully Year 2000 complaint.  Therefore,
the Bank could possibly be negatively  impacted to the extent other entities not
affiliated  with  the  Bank  are  unsuccessful  in  properly   addressing  their
respective Year 2000 compliance  responsibilities.  Specific  factors that might
cause  such  material   differences   include,  but  are  not  limited  to,  the
availability  and cost of personnel  trained in this area, the ability to locate
and correct all relevant computer codes, and similar uncertainties.

Contingency planning:
The Bank has drafted a contingency  and business  resumption  plan that outlines
the  procedures  that are to be followed in the event that any mission  critical
systems fail after  January 1, 2000.  The Bank's  contingency  plans include the
possibility  that the Bank  would not be able to process  customer  transactions
through  its  internal  on-line  system for a period of time - which  management
believes  would  not be  excessive  -  following  December  31,  1999 and for an
inability to furnish customer  statements on a timely basis in January 2000. The
inability to process  transactions  on-line  would have a limited  impact on the
operations  of the Bank  because,  historically,  transaction  volumes are lower
during the winter months. The inability to furnish account statements would have
a negative impact on the Bank's  reputation,  but in light of the growing public
awareness of the Year 2000 crisis,  management  does not believe that the impact
would be material.

The Year 2000  Committee  (Committee)  of the Bank  continues to review areas of
concern including the Bank's reliance on third-party vendors who supply the Bank
with  critical  applications.   These  crucial  third  parties  include  utility
companies  (Nantucket  Electric and  BellAtlantic),  Automated  Teller  Networks
(Express24/NYCE),  the Federal Funds Transfer  System  (FedWire) and the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Boston  (FHLBB).  The Bank's  daily  interaction  with each of
these third  parties is crucial to many of the Bank's  functions  and the loss -
even for a short  period of time - of any or all  could  materially  impact  the
Bank's short term profitability.

During the 4th quarter of 1998,  the Committee  will work to finalize the Bank's
contingency  plans.  Testing of the plans is  expected  to begin  during the 1st
quarter of 1999 and will  continue  through the end of the year.  The  Committee
continues to review updates from the various  regulatory  and utility  providers
and will evaluate  changes to the contingency  plan that may include  provisions
for the expanded cash management and short-term lending arrangements between the
Bank and the FHLBB and additional cash  availability at the branch level to meet
the emergency needs of the Bank's customers.

Impact on major deposit and loan customers:
The Bank has  assessed  the  impact of the Year 2000 issue on its major loan and
deposit  customers.  Certain  borrowers and  depositors  that could  potentially
experience a significant disruption in their business due to a Year 2000 failure
have been identified. The risks to the Bank as a result of Year 2000 failures of
these  customers is being assessed on a  customer-by-customer  basis.  No credit
losses  have  been  incurred  by the Bank to date as a result  of the Year  2000
issue.  The  potential  impact on depositors  has been  considered in the Bank's
liquidity plan for 1999 and 2000.
