                     HOMEFED CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.  The unaudited
    interim consolidated financial statements, which reflect all
    adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) that
    management believes necessary to present fairly results of
    interim operations, should be read in conjunction with the
    Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (including the
    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) included in the
    audited consolidated financial statements for HomeFed
    Corporation ("HomeFed" or the "Company") for the year ended
    December 31, 1995, which are included in the Company's Annual
    Report on Form 10-K for such year (the "1995 10-K").  Results
    of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
    indicative of annual results of operations.  The consolidated
    balance sheet at December 31, 1995 was extracted from the
    Company's audited consolidated financial statements in the 1995
    10-K, and does not include all disclosures required by
    generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial
    statements.

2.  Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and Plan of Reorganization.  On July 3,
    1995, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection
    pursuant to its court approved plan of reorganization (the
    "Plan").  The Plan was principally funded by a $20,000,000
    convertible note (the "Convertible Note") issued to Leucadia
    Financial Corporation ("LFC"), an indirect wholly-owned
    subsidiary of Leucadia National Corporation, and by LFC's
    purchase of 2,700,000 newly issued $.01 par value common shares
    ("Common Stock") of the Company for $810,000. 

    As part of the Plan, the Company settled pending litigation
    with the Resolution Trust Company (the "RTC") in its capacity
    as receiver and conservator of HomeFed Bank, F.S.B. ("HomeFed
    Bank"), a former subsidiary of the Company.  Under the RTC
    settlement, the Company paid the RTC $3,100,000 and the Company
    received a receivership certificate from the RTC which was
    redeemed by the RTC for $1,402,000.  In addition, the RTC
    settlement provides that the Company is entitled to receive
    $850,000 from any tax refunds received by the RTC relating to
    HomeFed Bank for years prior to 1992.  The Company has not
    recorded an asset related to such tax refunds and no assurances
    can be given that any such tax refunds will actually be
    received.

    Also under the Plan, general unsecured creditors, principally
    the holders of the Company's convertible subordinated
    debentures, received a pro rata share of (i) $16,900,000, (ii)
    the Company's rights to the RTC tax refund relating to HomeFed
    Bank and the $1,402,000 receivership certificate proceeds,
    (iii) 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock valued by the Bankruptcy
                                   6

<PAGE>

    Court at $.30 per share, and (iv) an interest in the litigation
    trust described below. 

    The Plan also provided for the issuance of 5,800,000 new shares
    of Common Stock to the pre-effective date stockholders of the
    Company and the old shares of common stock (approximately
    21,484,000 shares) were canceled.  As a result of shares
    received as a general unsecured creditor and shares purchased
    as described above, LFC owns approximately 41.2% of the
    Company's Common Stock, without giving effect to the Common
    Stock that LFC may acquire in the future pursuant to the terms
    of the Convertible Note.

    The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation contains
    certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Company's
    stock.  Generally, such provisions restrict a person's ability
    to accumulate 5% or more of the Company's Common Stock, as well
    as the ability of a 5% stockholder to acquire additional shares
    of Common Stock, in each case, after giving effect to numerous
    rules of attribution, aggregation and calculation. In addition,
    pursuant to the Plan, the Company is prohibited from issuing
    additional shares of stock until July 3, 1999.  The Company's
    Restated Certificate of Incorporation further prohibits the
    Company from issuing or redeeming any shares of stock as long
    as the Convertible Note is outstanding.  None of the foregoing
    restrictions will prevent LFC's exchange of the Convertible
    Note for Common Stock.

    Certain pending claims are being prosecuted by a litigation
    trust created for the benefit of the Company's creditors under
    the Plan.  Pursuant to the Plan, the Company loaned $250,000 to
    the trust in order to pay litigation costs.  The loan will be
    repaid with interest in 1996, but the Company will not
    otherwise receive any benefits from the trust.  This loan is
    included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

3.  Earnings Per Share.  Primary loss per share of Common Stock for
    all periods presented was calculated by dividing net loss by
    the 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued on July 3, 1995. 
    Primary loss per share calculations based upon the pre-
    effective date outstanding shares are not meaningful.

    Fully diluted loss per share of Common Stock was calculated as
    described above and, for the period ended March 31, 1996,
    conversion of the Convertible Note was not assumed since the
    effect of such assumed conversion would have been to decrease
    loss per share.  The number of shares used to calculate fully
    diluted loss per share was 10,000,000 for each of the three-
    month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.

4.  Related Party Transactions.  Notes payable consist primarily of
    the Convertible Note issued to LFC and a note issued to LFC as
    part of LFC's agreement to provide construction financing to
    the Company, as described below.  The Convertible Note bears
    interest at 12% per annum payable quarterly; however, interest
                               7

<PAGE>

    is only paid if the Company has sufficient funds available, as
    determined pursuant to the provisions of the loan agreement. 
    Unpaid interest is added to the principal balance each quarter. 
    Interest accrued during the period ended March 31, 1996 of
    $634,000 was not paid and was added to the principal balance as
    of March 31, 1996.  

    The construction financing bears interest based on the prime
    rate, and any unpaid interest is added to the principal balance
    at the end of each month.  The interest rate at March 31, 1996
    was 9.5%.  Interest accrued during the period ended March 31,
    1996 on the construction financing totaled $138,000, of which
    $26,000 was paid to LFC and $112,000 was added to the principal
    balance during such period.  Payments of principal and interest
    on the loans are payable on demand, and if payments are not
    made upon demand, the applicable interest rate is increased by
    3% per annum.  A payment equal to 110% of the construction cost
    of the property being released is required in order to release
    property from the construction financing lien.  As of March 31,
    1996, the balance of the construction financing loan was
    $5,253,000.

    LFC has provided certain administrative services to the Company
    for a fee of $38,000 for the three-month period ended March 31,
    1996.  Pursuant to an Administrative Services Agreement dated
    March 1, 1996 (the "Administrative Services Agreement"), LFC
    has agreed to continue to provide administrative services to
    the Company for an annual fee of $141,000, payable in monthly
    installments, through March 1, 1997.  After March 1, 1997, the
    Administrative Services Agreement provides that LFC and the
    Company will negotiate in good faith to determine the
    compensation to be paid to LFC under the Administrative
    Services Agreement for subsequent periods.  The Administrative
    Services Agreement will terminate on March 1, 1999; provided,
    however, that LFC may terminate the Administrative Services
    Agreement prior to March 1, 1999, upon 30 days' written notice,
    if the Company and LFC are unable to reach an agreement
    regarding the compensation to be paid to LFC for periods after
    March 1, 1997.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
- - -------  -------------------------------------------------
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
         -----------------------------------

    The purpose of this section is to discuss and analyze the
Company's consolidated financial condition, liquidity and capital
resources and results of operations.  This analysis should be read
in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the
Company's 1995 10-K.

General

    The Company is a holding company primarily engaged in the
investment in and development of residential real estate projects
in Northern California, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries
HomeFed Communities, Inc. and HomeFed Resources Corporation.  The
Company's subsidiaries enter into contracts with local builders and
developers to provide construction, marketing and management
services. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    For the three-month period ended March 31, 1996, net cash was
provided by operating activities, principally from sales of real
estate.  For the three-month period ended March 31, 1995, net cash
was used by operating activities, principally for real estate
development projects and to pay reorganization expenses.  The
Company is a holding company whose principal source of funds is
dividends or borrowings from its subsidiaries.  As a result, the
Company is dependent upon the cash flow, if any, from the real
estate development projects of its subsidiaries in order to pay its
expenses.  While the Company expects such cash flows will be
sufficient to cover overhead expenses, it is not expected to be
sufficient to permit debt service payments on the Convertible Note
for the foreseeable future.  As more fully described in the 1995
10-K, no principal payments are due on the Convertible Note until
July 1998 and accrued interest is only required to be paid under
certain conditions.  Any unpaid interest is added to the principal
balance of the note on a quarterly basis.

    LFC has agreed to provide up to an aggregate of $15,000,000 of
construction financing to certain of the Company's subsidiaries and
their affiliates while the Convertible Note is outstanding.  The
construction financing is collateralized by certain assets of the
Company's subsidiaries or their affiliates, including real estate
under development.  To facilitate the sale of property to home
buyers, LFC has agreed to release property from the construction
financing lien when it receives 110% of the assigned cost of
construction as a payment towards the outstanding loan.  The
construction financing bears interest based upon the prime rate,
and any unpaid interest is added to the principal balance at the
end of each month.  As of March 31, 1996, the outstanding balance
on this loan was approximately $5,253,000.  The Company believes
that the construction financing provided by LFC will be adequate to
complete its current development plans.  Any additional financing


                               9

<PAGE>

required from a lender other than LFC cannot be collateralized by
any of the Company's assets without LFC's consent.  Accordingly,
the Company may be unable to obtain additional financing from
sources other than LFC.

Results of Operations 

    Sales of real estate properties decreased in the 1996 period as
compared to the 1995 period due to reduced sales of new home
inventory.  The higher sales in the 1995 period were primarily the
result of a sales program to complete and sell all remaining homes
at the Company's Carson Creek Project in 1995.  Sales in the 1996
period primarily consist of sales of trade homes.

    The decrease of cost of sales in the 1996 period as compared to
the 1995 period reflects the reduced level of sales.  Gross profit
percentages reflect the mix of homes sold.

    Interest expense for the 1996 period reflects the interest due
on the Convertible Note to LFC of approximately $634,000, which was
not paid and was added to the principal balance of the note as
stipulated under the note agreement.  Interest expense for the 1996
period also includes interest due on the construction financing
loan of $126,000 relating to substantially completed homes in
inventory.  An additional $12,000 of interest on the construction
financing loan relating to homes under construction was capitalized
for the 1996 period.  All interest on the construction loan was
capitalized for the 1995 period.

    Income tax expense for all periods presented principally
relates to state franchise taxes.  The Company has not recorded 
federal income tax benefits for its operating losses due to the
uncertainty of sufficient future taxable income which is required
in order to record such tax benefits.

                ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

    THIS ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is

Resources Corporation, a California corporation ("HomeFed
Resources"), and HomeFed Communities, Inc., a California
corporation ("HomeFed Communities"), with reference to the
following facts:
          A.   As a result of a reorganization under Chapter 11
of the Bankruptcy Code, HomeFed's operations have been
significantly streamlined, and it, and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, HomeFed Resources and HomeFed Communities, have one
employee responsible for managing their business, but no
employees to carry on day-to-day operations and no office
facilities from which to conduct business.  HomeFed, HomeFed
Resources and HomeFed Communities are referred to herein as the
"HomeFed Group."
          B.   Each of the members of HomeFed Group has a
continuing need for office space, office facilities, services and
administrative personnel to carry on its ongoing activities. 
Leucadia has the capability to provide office space, office
facilities, secretarial support, administrative services,
supplies and other facilities and services that would customarily

                          1

<PAGE>

be required in connection with the administration of the
operations of businesses similar to those operated by the HomeFed
Group.
          C.   The HomeFed Group desires to retain Leucadia to
provide such services for the consideration and on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.
          NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
          1.   Retention of Leucadia.  As of the effective date
of this Agreement, Leucadia is retained to provide the facilities
and services described in this Agreement in consideration of the

provide the following facilities and services, as well as any
other reasonably related thereto:
               (a)  Provide office space, office facilities, such
as telephones, telecopying, photocopying and other similar

businesses;
               (b)  Receive, deposit and withdraw all funds
received from the operations of the HomeFed Group;
                          2

<PAGE>

               (c)  Recruit, employ, train, direct and terminate
the employment of administrative personnel, as needed, in the

member of the HomeFed Group;
               (f)  Coordinate legal matters and proceedings with
the attorneys for each of the members of the HomeFed Group; 
               (g)  Provide, to the extent possible and based

payable, employee payroll taxes and insurance premiums and any
other operating expenses incurred by a member of the HomeFed
Group;
               (h)  Supervise the annual audit of the financial
records of each member of the HomeFed Group.
          3.   Compensation.  As compensation for the services
and facilities provided under this Agreement, Leucadia shall be
compensated during the first 12 months of this Agreement at an
annual rate of $141,000, payable in monthly installments of
$11,750 on the first day of each month, commencing on the first
day of the first month after the date of this Agreement and
                        3
<PAGE>

continuing thereafter for a 12-month period.  At the expiration
of the initial 12-month period commencing on the date of this
Agreement, Leucadia and each member of the HomeFed Group shall
negotiate in good faith to determine the compensation to be paid
to Leucadia under this Agreement for periods subsequent to such
initial 12-month period.
          4.   Term and Termination.  The term of this Agreement

create an employer/employee relationship, or a partnership, joint
venture or other agency relationship between the parties.
          7.   General Provisions. 
               7.1  Severability.  Each provision of this

event any provision shall be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining
provisions shall continue to be in full force and effect.

               7.3  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the
State of Utah.
               7.4  Assignment.  No party hereto shall have the
