Preliminary Note in Regard to Forward-looking Statements. This quarterly report
on  Form  10-Q  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 Form 10-Q 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  definitive  agreement  by which  Seacoast
Financial Services Corporation will acquire all of the outstanding shares of the
Company,  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.

Recent  Events.  On July 21,  2000,  the  Company  announced  that its  Board of
Directors had signed a definitive agreement by which Seacoast Financial Services
Corporation  ("Seacoast"),  holding company for  CompassBank  for Savings,  will
acquire all of the outstanding  shares of the Company in a cash  transaction for
$37.00 per share, for a total transaction value of approximately  $68.5 million.
The transaction,  which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors
of the Company  and  Seacoast,  was  approved  by to Home Port  shareholders  on
October 20, 2000. The transactions remains subject to regulatory approval and is
expected to close by the end of 2000. Seacoast is a $2.3 billion holding company
based in New Bedford,  Massachusetts with significant operations in southeastern
Massachusetts.

Seacoast will keep Nantucket Bank operating as a separate  subsidiary  retaining
its own name and charter.  The present  Board of  Directors  and  management  of
Nantucket Bank will continue to oversee the operations of the Bank. The staff of
Nantucket Bank will remain in their current  positions to insure that the day to
day operations of Nantucket Bank will not be changed.  Additionally,  one member
of the Board of Directors of Nantucket  Bank will be added to the Seacoast Board
of  Directors.  There  are no job  eliminations  expected  as a  result  of this
transaction.

In connection with the execution of the definitive merger agreement transaction,
a reciprocal  breakup fee of $3.5 million was  negotiated.  Also the Company and
Seacoast entered into a Stock Option  Agreement,  granting to Seacoast an option
to  acquire  newly-issued  shares  equal to 19.9% of the  Company's  outstanding
common stock  exercisable in certain  circumstances,  including a  third-party's
interference with the transaction.  The Company is unaware of any event that has
occurred  that would  permit  Seacoast to exercise or assert  rights  under this
option.

At September  30, 2000 the Company had  incurred  $293  thousand  merger-related
expenses.  Additional  merger-related expenses of approximately $1.2 million are
expected  to be  incurred  during  the  fourth  quarter  of 2000 and will have a
negative impact on the Company's reported earnings

                           Consolidated Balance Sheet
                           --------------------------

Total assets of Home Port Bancorp,  Inc. (the  "Company")  grew during the first
nine months of 2000,  increasing  $22.0  million,  or 9.4%, to $341.3 million at
September 30, 2000 from $319.3  million at December 31, 1999. For the comparable
period in 1999,  total assets increased $41.8 million,  or 15.2%.  Major balance
sheet categories are discussed in detail below.

Net loans  outstanding  (including  loans held for sale) were $285.8  million at
September 30, 2000, an increase of $22.6 million,  or 8.6%,  from $263.2 million
at December 31, 1999. For the comparable  period in 1999,  loans increased $29.9
million,  or 13.0%,  to $259.8 million from $229.9 million at December 31, 1998.
Mortgage loan  originations  totaled $79 million during the first nine months of
2000  compared to $124  million in the prior year  period.  The decrease in loan
originations is attributed to the higher interest rate environment in 2000. Loan
sales  decreased  to $20.6  million  during  the  first  nine  months of 2000 as
compared to $40.8 million for the corresponding  1999 period. The Bank's lending
activities are conducted solely on Nantucket.

Total  deposits  increased  by $30.2  million,  or 13.8%,  to $248.4  million at
September  30, 2000 from $218.2  million at December 31, 1999.  During the first
nine months of 1999,  deposits increased by $51.8 million, or 27.4%, from $188.7
million at December 31, 1998.  These  increases in deposits are  attributed to a
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.

Borrowed  funds,  consisting of Federal Home Loan Bank  advances,  totaled $59.9
million at September 30, 2000, a decrease of $11.5 million from the December 31,
1999 total of $71.4 million.  At September 30, 1999 borrowed funds totaled $45.4
million.  These  borrowings  are used to fund loan growth and  seasonal  deposit
outflows. Total borrowings represented 18% of total assets at September 30, 2000
compared to 14% at September 30, 1999.

Total  stockholders'  equity  increased  by $2.9  million  to $30.2  million  at
September  30,  2000 from $27.3  million at December  31,  1999.  This  increase
reflects net income of $3.7 million less cash dividends declared of $.9 million.

                              Results of Operations
                              ---------------------

For the quarter  ended  September 30, 2000,  the Company  reported net income of
$1.1 million or $0.57 per share  compared to net income of $1.4 million or $0.74
per share for the quarter ended  September  30, 1999.  For the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 net income totaled $3.7 million, or $2.02 per share, compared
to $3.7 million, or $2.03 per share, for the comparable 1999 period.

Net Interest Income

Net interest  income  increased  $300 thousand,  or 9.2%, and $971 thousand,  or
10.6%,  respectively,  for the three and six months ended  September 30, 2000 as
compared to the prior year.  These  increases  were  primarily  the result of an
increase in the average volume of loans and deposits.  Additional information on
average balances,  interest and yields, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, is
provided in the following two tables:

(1)  Average balances  include the assets held for sale,  available for sale and
     held to maturity.

(2)  A tax-equivalent  ("FTE")  adjustment has been included in the calculations
     to reflect this income as if it had been fully taxable.  The FTE adjustment
     is based upon the  applicable  federal and state income tax rates.  The FTE
     adjustment  included  in interest  income was $85  thousand in 2000 and $59
     thousand in 1999.

The effect on net  interest  income as a result of  changes in average  interest
rates and balances follows:

                           and Results of Operations
              Unaudited Interim Information for September 30, 2000

Non-interest income

Non-interest income decreased by $8 thousand, or 1.8% for the three months ended
September  30, 2000 as compared to the prior year.  Non-interest  income for the
nine months  ended  September  30,  2000  increased  by $33  thousand or 2.6% as
compared to the same period in 1999. The increase was primarily due to increases
in fees from the sale of non-deposit investment products offset by reductions in
net  gains  from the sale of  loans.  Gains  from loan  sales  decreased  to $39
thousand  in  the  first  nine  months  of  2000  from  $244   thousand  in  the
corresponding 1999 period.

Non-interest expense

Non interest expense increased by $642 thousand,  or 40.9%, and $1.1 million, or
24.5%,  respectively,  in the three and nine month periods ending  September 30,
2000 as  compared  to the  prior  year.  These  increases  are due to the  costs
associated  with  additional  office space  leased in 2000,  the  additions  and
renovations  to the Bank's  main office and  additional  staffing to service the
increased loan and deposit  business.  Both quarterly and  year-to-date  results
have been adversely  impacted by costs  associated  with the merger.  During the
third  quarter  Home  Port  incurred  $293  thousand  in direct  merger  related
expenses.  Operating expenses (excluding merger costs) continue to be well under
industry norms at 2.12% of average assets in 2000 compared to 2.06% in 1999.

Return on Equity

Return on average equity decreased to 17.36% for the nine months ended September
30,  2000 from 19.59% for the  corresponding  period in 1999.  This  decrease is
primarily the result of the merger- related expenses.

Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2000 was $4.5 million or 1.55% of
total loans compared to $3.9 million,  or 1.50% of total loans,  at December 31,
1999.  During the nine months  ending  September  30, 2000 the loan loss reserve
increased by $533  thousand due to net  recoveries  of $390  thousand and a loan
loss provision of $150 thousand,  offset by charge-offs of $7 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 $438  thousand at September  30, 2000
compared  to $71  thousand  at December  31,  1999.  None of these loans were to
affiliated  persons.  At both  September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 the Bank
had no other  real  estate  owned.  The Bank had no loans  that were  considered
impaired at either September 30, 2000 or December 31, 1999.

At September  30, 2000  management  has  identified  $1.2 million 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, 2000
was 33.4% compared to 34.6% for the comparable prior year quarter.  For the nine
months ended  September 30, 2000 the  effective  tax rate was 33.5%  compared to
34.8% in the  comparable  1999  period.  These tax rates are  reflective  of the
proportion of income earned by certain non-bank  subsidiaries that is taxed, for
state tax purposes, at lower rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

All of the Company's funds are generated through its 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.  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, 2000 and December 31, 1999 the Company's and the Bank's capital
ratios were in excess of regulatory requirements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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. In June 1999 the
FASB issued  Statement No. 137 which defers the effective  date of Statement No.
133.  Statement No. 133 is now  effective for all fiscal  quarters of all fiscal
years  beginning  after June 15, 2000.  This statement is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
