                      HOMEFED CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
               NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements,  which reflect all
     adjustments  (consisting  only of normal  recurring  items) that management
     believes are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
     operations and cash flows,  should be read in conjunction  with the audited
     consolidated  financial  statements  for HomeFed  Corporation  for the year
     ended  December 31, 1999 which are included in the Company's  Annual Report
     on Form 10-K,  as amended by Form 10-K/A,  for such year (the "1999 10-K").
     Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
     annual results of operations.  The  consolidated  balance sheet at December
     31, 1999 was derived  from the  Company's  audited  consolidated  financial
     statements in the 1999 10-K, and does not include all disclosures  required
     by  generally   accepted   accounting   principles  for  annual   financial
     statements.

     During the third quarter of 1999, the limited liability agreement governing
     Otay Land Company,  LLC ("Otay Land  Company") was amended and as a result,
     the Company now has the ability to control Otay Land Company.  Accordingly,
     effective  September  20, 1999,  Otay Land Company has been included in the
     Company's  consolidated  financial  statements.  The Company previously had
     accounted for this  investment  under the equity method of accounting;  the
     noncash effects on the consolidated financial statements were a decrease in
     the investment in Otay Land Company of $9,988,000,  an increase in minority
     interest  of  $10,928,000  and an increase in land and real estate held for
     development and sale of $20,976,000.

2.   As of August 14,  1998,  the Company  and  Leucadia  Financial  Corporation
     ("LFC"),  a  wholly-owned   subsidiary  of  Leucadia  National  Corporation
     ("Leucadia") entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement,  pursuant
     to which the Company and LFC amended the original loan agreement dated July
     3, 1995 and restructured  the outstanding 12% Secured  Convertible Note due
     2003  held  by  LFC.  The  Restructured  Note  has a  principal  amount  of
     approximately  $26,462,000  (reflecting the original $20,000,000  principal
     balance of the  Convertible  Note,  together  with  additions  to principal
     resulting  from  accrued  and  unpaid  interest  thereon to the date of the
     restructuring, as allowed under the terms of the Convertible Note), extends
     the  maturity  date from July 3, 2003 to  December  31,  2004,  reduces the
     interest rate from 12% to 6% and eliminates the  convertibility  feature of
     the  Convertible  Note.  Interest  only  on the  Restructured  Note is paid
     quarterly and all unpaid principal is due on the maturity date.  During the
     six-month  periods  ended  June 30,  2000 and June 30,  1999,  interest  of
     approximately  $790,000 and  $787,000,  respectively,  was expensed for the
     Restructured  Note.  As a result of the  restructuring  of the  Convertible
     Note, the Restructured  Note was recorded at fair value and the approximate
     $7,015,000  difference  between such amount and the  carrying  value of the
     Convertible  Note  was  reflected  as  additional   paid-in  capital.   The
     $7,015,000  difference  between the fair value of the Restructured Note and
     the carrying value of the Convertible  Note will be amortized over the term
     of the Restructured Note using the interest method.  Approximately $445,000
     and $393,000,  respectively,  was amortized as interest  expense during the
     six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999.

3.   Basic loss per share of Common  Stock for the three and  six-month  periods
     ended  June  30,  2000  was  calculated  by  dividing  the net  loss by the
     56,807,826 and 56,715,793,  respectively, weighted average shares of Common
     Stock  outstanding.  Basic  loss per  share of  Common  Stock  for all 1999
     periods was  calculated  by dividing the net loss by  10,000,000  shares of
     Common Stock.

     Diluted loss per share of Common Stock was  calculated as described  above.
     The number of weighted  average  shares used to calculate  diluted loss per
     share  for the  three  and  six-month  periods  ending  June  30,  2000 was
     56,807,826 and 56,715,793,  respectively.  For all 1999 periods  10,000,000
     shares of Common  Stock was used in the  calculation  of  diluted  loss per
     share.  The  calculation  of diluted loss per share does not include Common
     Stock  equivalents of 180,000 and 46,557,826 for all 2000 and 1999 periods,
     respectively, which are antidilutive.

4.   As of October 14, 1998, the Company and Leucadia  formed Otay Land Company.
     The  Company  has  contributed  $11,300,000  as capital  and  Leucadia  has
     contributed $10,000,000 as a preferred capital interest. The Company is the
     manager  of  Otay  Land  Company.  Otay  Land  Company  has  acquired,  for
     approximately $19,500,000,  approximately 4,935 acres of land which is part
     of a 22,900 acre project located south of San Diego,  California,  known as

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, (continued)


5.   Pursuant to administrative service agreements,  LFC provides administrative
     services to the  Company,  including  providing  the services of two of the
     Company's executive officers.  Effective March 1, 2000, the Company and LFC
     entered into a new one year  administrative  services agreement pursuant to
     which the  Company  pays LFC an  administrative  fee of  $276,000.  For the
     three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, the Company expensed
     $67,000 and  $141,000,  respectively.  For the  three-month  and  six-month
     periods  ended June 30,  1999,  the Company  expensed  $74,000 and $148,000
     respectively.

     The Company's  corporate office is in part of an office building  subleased
     from Leucadia for a monthly  amount equal to its share of  Leucadia's  cost
     for such space and furniture.  For the  three-month  and six-month  periods
     ended  June  30,  2000,   the  Company   expensed   $58,000  and  $105,000,
     respectively,  for rentals from Leucadia. For the three-month and six-month
     periods  ended June 30,  1999,  the Company  expensed  $53,000 and $90,000,
     respectively, for rentals from Leucadia.

6.   On March 8, 2000,  options to purchase an  aggregate  of 180,000  shares of
     Common Stock were granted to eligible participants under the Company's 1999
     Stock  Incentive  Plan (the "1999  Plan") at an exercise  price of $.75 per
     share  (market  price) and an  aggregate  of 250,000  shares of  restricted
     Common  Stock were  issued to  eligible  participants  under the 1999 Plan,
     subject to certain forfeiture  provisions.  Of the 180,000 options granted,
     50,000 were granted to non-employees, resulting in deferred compensation of
     $36,000 based upon the estimated fair value of these options at the time of
     grant,  using  the  modified  Black  Scholes  model.  This  amount  will be
     amortized over the five-year  vesting period of the options.  In connection
     with the  issuance  of  restricted  stock,  the Company  recorded  deferred
     compensation  of  $188,000  representing  the value of stock on the date of
     issuance  based upon market price.  This amount will be amortized  over the
     three-year  vesting  period  of the  restricted  stock  at  which  time all
     remaining forfeiture provisions will end.

7.   On July 12,  2000,  options to purchase  an  aggregate  of 6,000  shares of
     Common Stock were  granted to members of the Board of  Directors  under the
     1999 Plan at an exercise  price of $.70 per share,  the then current market
     price per share.

     On July 12, 2000,  the Company's  Stockholders  approved the Company's 2000
     Stock  Incentive Plan pursuant to which options to purchase an aggregate of
     1,000,000 shares of Common Stock were granted to two key employees on April
     27, 2000 at an exercise  price of $.61 per share,  the then current  market
     price per share.  The  options are subject to  achievement  of  performance
     goals as determined by the Board of Directors  and are  exercisable  over a
     six-year period.  Options and any stock issued on exercise of an option are
     subject to  forfeiture  if the  performance  goals are not met within three
     years from the date of grant.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
        and Results of Interim Operations.

The following  should be read in conjunction  with  Management's  Discussion and
Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and Results of  Operations  contained  in the
Company's 1999 10-K.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the six-month  periods  ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999,  net cash was
used in  operating  activities,  principally  to fund  interest  and general and
administrative  expenses. The Company's principal sources of funds are dividends
or  borrowings  from its  subsidiaries,  and any fee income  earned from the San
Elijo Hills  project.  The Company is dependent upon the cash flow, if any, from
the sale of real  estate  and  management  fees in  order  to pay its  expenses,
including debt service payments.

The Company  expects that its cash on hand,  together with cash  generated  from
sales of real  estate  will be  sufficient  to meet its cash flow  needs for the
foreseeable future. However, the Company's ability to fund the cost of providing
services  required  under the  Development  Agreement  for San Elijo  Hills will
depend significantly upon the receipt of fees under the Development Agreement as
described  below.  If, at any time in the  future,  the  Company's  cash flow is
insufficient to meet its then current cash requirements,  the Company could sell
real estate  projects held for  development  or seek to borrow  funds.  However,
because  all of the  Company's  assets are pledged to LFC to  collateralize  its
$26,462,000  borrowing  from  LFC,  it may be  unable  to  obtain  financing  at
favorable rates from sources other than LFC.

The Development Agreement provides that the Company will receive certain fees in
connection with the project. These fees consist of marketing, field overhead and
management  service  fees.  These fees are based on a fixed  percentage of gross
revenues of the project, less certain expenses allocated to the project, and are
expected to cover the Company's cost of providing services under the Development
Agreement.  The  Development  Agreement  also  provides for a success fee to the
Company out of the project's net cash flow, if any, as described  below, up to a
maximum  amount.  Whether the success fee, if it is earned,  will be paid to the
Company prior to the  conclusion of the project will be at the discretion of the
project owner.

To determine  "net cash flow" for purposes of  calculating  the success fee, all
cash  expenditures  of the project will be deducted  from total  revenues of the
project.  Examples of "expenditures" for these purposes include land development
costs, current period operating costs, and indebtedness,  either  collateralized
by the project ($30,565,000 at June 30, 2000, which is non-interest bearing), or
owed  by the  project's  owner  to  Leucadia  ($68,792,000  at  June  30,  2000)
(collectively,  "Indebtedness").  As a success  fee,  the Company is entitled to
receive payments out of net cash flow, if any, up to the aggregate amount of the
Indebtedness.  The  balance  of the net cash flow,  if any,  will be paid to the
Company  and the  project  owner in equal  amounts.  However,  the amount of the
success  fee  cannot  be more  than 68% of net cash  flow  minus  the  amount of
Indebtedness.  There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will receive
any success fee at all for this project.  The Company  believes that any success
fee that it may receive will be its principal  source of revenue  earned through
its  participation  in the San Elijo Hills project  pursuant to the  Development
Agreement.

As of June 30, 2000, the Company owed $26,462,000  principal amount to LFC. This
amount is payable on December 31, 2004 and bears  interest at 6% per year.  This
obligation is reflected in the consolidated  balance sheet, net of discount,  at
$21,392,000 as of June 30, 2000.  During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the
Company  paid to LFC  $395,000 in interest  and accrued  $395,000 in interest to
LFC.

In April 2000, the Company sold two clustered  housing  development sites at the
Paradise Valley project for net proceeds of $1,494,000.  The Company has certain
continuing obligations with respect to this project, including the obligation to
construct a recreation  center.  The Company  estimates that construction of the
recreation  center for the Paradise Valley Community will be completed at a cost
of approximately $1,200,000. Construction of the recreation center began in 1999
and is expected to be completed in 2000.  Cash of $1,000,000 was deposited in an
escrow  account  that is being  drawn  upon as the  recreation  center  is being
completed. At June 30, 2000, $291,000 remained in escrow.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
          and Results of Interim Operations,(continued)

In  connection  with an indemnity  agreement to a third party surety  entered in
1990 in connection  with the  construction of  infrastructure  improvements in a
development  located in LaQuinta,  California,  a  subsidiary  of the Company is
required  to  maintain  a minimum  net worth of  $5,000,000  and a minimum  cash
balance of $400,000.  Failure to meet both of these  requirements  would trigger
the  subsidiary's  obligation  to  provide  an  irrevocable  letter of credit of
approximately  $460,000 based upon current estimates.  The subsidiary  currently
meets the minimum cash balance requirement.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, as a result of
the sale of certain lots in the San Elijo Hills project,  the Company recognized
$260,000  and  $1,138,000,   respectively,  of  marketing,  field  overhead  and
management  service fee income in accordance  with the terms of the  Development
Agreement.  During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999, no
sales occurred in the San Elijo Hills project and no fee income was recognized.

Sales  of  residential  properties  increased  in  the  three-month  period  and
decreased  in the  six-month  period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same
periods ended June 30, 1999. There were no sales of real estate during the first
quarter of 2000.  During  the  second  quarter  of 2000,  the  Company  sold two
clustered housing  development sites at the Paradise Valley project.  During the
first  quarter of 1999,  the Company  sold 75  residential  lots in the Paradise
Valley project.  There were no sales of real estate during the second quarter of
1999.  Cost of sales recorded  during these periods  reflects the level of sales
activity.

Interest  expense for the three-month and six-month  periods ended June 30, 2000
reflects  $395,000 and $790,000,  respectively,  paid to LFC on the Restructured
Note and $226,000 and $445,000, respectively, resulting from the amortization of
a portion of the difference  between the fair value of the Restructured Note and
the carrying value of the Convertible Note. Interest expense for the three-month
and  six-month  periods  ended June 30, 1999  reflects  interest of $396,000 and
$787,000,  respectively,  paid to LFC on the Restructured  Note and $200,000 and
$393,000,  respectively,  resulting  from the  amortization  of a portion of the
difference  between  the fair value of the  Restructured  Note and the  carrying
value of the Convertible Note.

General  and  administrative  expenses  increased  in both the  three-month  and
six-month  periods  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same  periods in 1999
due to increased  operating  activities in  connection  with the San Elijo Hills
project and Otay Ranch project.

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.
