                           Forward Looking Statements

         This Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q")  contains  statements
which constitute  forward looking  statements  within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of
places in this Form 10-Q and include  statements  regarding the intent,  belief,
outlook,  estimate  or  expectations  of the Company  (as  defined  below),  its
directors or its officers primarily with respect to future events and the future
financial  performance  of the Company.  Readers of this Form 10-Q are cautioned
that any such forward looking  statements are not guarantees of future events or
performance  and involve risks and  uncertainties,  and that actual  results may
differ  materially from those in the forward  looking  statements as a result of
various  factors.  The  accompanying  information  contained  in this  Form 10-Q
identifies  important factors that could cause such  differences.  These factors
include  changes in interest  rates,  loss of deposits  and loan demand to other
savings and financial  institutions,  substantial  changes in financial markets;
changes in real estate values and the real estate market; regulatory changes, or
unanticipated results in pending legal proceedings.


                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1.  Basis of Presentation
The  consolidated  financial  statements  include the  accounts of Home  Federal
Bancorp (the "Company") and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Home Federal Savings
Bank (the "Bank").  These consolidated interim financial statements at March 31,
1998,  and for the three and nine month periods  ended March 31, 1998,  have not
been  examined  by  independent  auditors,  but  reflect,  in the opinion of the
Company's  management,  all  adjustments  (which  include only normal  recurring
adjustments)  necessary to present fairly the financial  position and results of
operations  for  such  periods,   including   elimination  of  all   significant
intercompany balances and transactions.

These statements  should be read in conjunction with the consolidated  financial
statements  and  related  notes  which  are  incorporated  by  reference  in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1997.

2.  Reclassifications
Some  items  in  the  financial   statements  of  previous   periods  have  been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.


 3.   Adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
The Company adopted SFAS No. 128,  "Earnings per Share," effective  December 31,
1997. This statement established new accounting standards for the calculation of
basic earnings per share as well as diluted  earnings per share. The adoption of
the statement did not have a material  effect on the  Company's  calculation  of
earnings per share.  The following is a  reconciliation  of the weighted average
common shares for the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

 4.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), "Comprehensive
Income",  was  issued in June 1997 and  becomes  effective  for  fiscal  periods
beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS 130 requires reclassification of earlier
financial  statements  for  comparative  purposes.  SFAS No. 130  requires  that
changes in the amounts of certain items,  including foreign currency translation
adjustments and gains and losses on certain securities be shown in the financial
statements.  SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific  format for the  financial
statement in which  comprehensive  income is reported,  but does require that an
amount  representing total  comprehensive  income be reported in that statement.
Management  has  not yet  quantified  the  effect  of the  new  standard  on the
consolidated financial statements.

Statement of Financial Accounting  Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131"),  "Disclosures
about  Segments of an Enterprise  and Related  Information,"  was issued in June
1997 and is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 1997. This
statement will change the way public companies report information about segments
of their  business in their annual  financial  statements  and requires  them to
report  selected  segment  information  in their  quarterly  reports  issued  to
shareholders.  It also requires  entity-wide  disclosures about the products and
services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and
reports revenues, and its major customers. Management has not yet quantified the
effect of this new standard on the consolidated financial statements.

5. Stock split

On October 28, 1997 Home Federal  Bancorp  declared a three for two stock split,
under which  every two shares of its common  stock  outstanding  at the close of
business on November 10, 1997 were  converted into three shares of common stock.
No fractional shares were issued.  Cash in lieu of fractional  shares,  based on
the market price of a share of Home Federal  Bancorp's  common stock on November
10, 1997, was paid to shareholders.  All per share information has been restated
to give effect to the stock split. Concurrently with the stock split the Company
increased the number of authorized shares of no par common stock to 9,500,000.

Part I, Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
                 Condition and Results of Operations

Home Federal  Bancorp (the "Company") is organized as a unitary savings and loan
holding  company  and owns all the  outstanding  capital  stock of Home  Federal
Savings Bank (the "Bank"). The business of the Bank and therefore,  the Company,
is to provide  consumer and business  banking services to certain markets in the
south-central  portions of the State of Indiana.  The Bank does business through
16 full service banking branches.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Quarter Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1997

General
The Company  reported net income of  $2,752,000  for the quarter ended March 31,
1998,  compared to $2,171,000  for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, an increase
of $581,000 or 26.8%.  Basic  earnings per common share for the current  quarter
were $0.54  compared to $0.43 for the quarter  ended  March 31,  1997.  Dilutive
earnings per common share increased $.09 to $.50 from $.41 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1998 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income before  provision for loan losses  increased by $251,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 1998,  compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
The increase is primarily due to the total  interest  sensitive  assets  growing
faster than interest  bearing  liabilities.  The increase in net interest income
due to volume growth was offset by a slight decline in the interest rate spread.

Net interest  income after  provision  for loan losses  increased by $433,000 or
7.9% for the quarter  ended March 31, 1998,  compared to the quarter ended March
31,  1997.  The  provision  for  loan  losses   decreased   $182,000  due  to  a
corresponding  decrease in loans  receivable net of $10.4 million over the three
month period ended March 31, 1998 as opposed to a $16.0 million  increase in the
balance of loans  receivable,  net over the three month  period  ended March 31,
1997. At March 31, 1998, the loan loss allowance  covered 108% of non-performing
loans,  real  estate  owned  and  other  repossessed  assets.  To  the  best  of
management's knowledge,  and in its opinion,  classified assets do not represent
material  credits which would cause  management to have serious doubts as to the
ability of such  borrowers to comply with their loan repayment  terms.  Based on
management's  analysis of classified  assets,  loss histories and current future
projections, the allowance balance appears adequate at March 31, 1998.

          Quarter ending March 31:               1998        1997
          ------------------------               ----        ----

          Allowance to Nonperforming Assets       108%        119%

Interest Income
Total interest income for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, increased
$813,000,  or 6.3%,  over the same period of the prior year. The increase is due
primarily  to  a  corresponding  increase  in  the  average  balances  of  loans
receivable,  net and investment  securities for the quarter ended March 31, 1998
as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

Interest Expense
Total interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 increased
$562,000,  or 7.9%,  as compared to the same period a year ago.  The increase in
interest  expense for the three month period  ended March 31, 1998,  compared to
the same period  ended March 31,  1997,  was due to  increased  deposit and FHLB
advances average balances for the same two comparative quarters.









                                      -8-
<PAGE>

Other Income
Total other income for the  three-month  period ended March 31, 1998,  increased
$1,097,000 or 65.3% over the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily
due to the gain on sale of  loans  increasing  $1,161,000  for the  three  month
period ended March 31,  1998,  compared to the same period ended March 31, 1997.
The  $1,425,000  gain on sale for the quarter  ended March 31, 1998  reflects an
increase in refinancing activity as well as the gain from the sale of $8,747,000
seasoned  adjustable and fixed rate  mortgages.  These increases in other income
were offset by a decrease  in loan  servicing  income of $184,000  for the three
month  period  ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the three month  period ended
March 31, 1997.  This decrease was due an impairment  charge of $202,000 for the
three month period ended March 31, 1998 on originated  mortgage servicing rights
resulting  from the lower rate  environment  of fiscal third  quarter of 1998 as
compared to the fiscal third quarter of 1997.

Other Expenses
Total other expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998,  increased
$580,000  over the same period ended March 31, 1997.  Compensation  and employee
benefits increased $360,000. Increases in compensation were due to normal salary
increases and increased loan activity and related compensation costs.  Occupancy
and equipment expenses increased $38,000 primarily due to increased depreciation
charges associated with the purchases of a new building, software and computers.
FDIC insurance  premiums increased $65,000 due to a $62,000 credit being applied
to the  insurance  premium for the quarter  ended March 31, 1997.  Miscellaneous
expenses increased $110,000 due to a variety of expense categories.

Nine-months Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Nine-months Ended March 31, 1997:

General
The Company reported net income of $7,900,000,  or $1.55 per basic common share,
for the nine-months  ended March 31, 1998,  compared to $4,768,000,  or $.95 per
basic common share,  for the same period a year ago, an increase of  $3,132,000,
or $0.60 per basic  common  share.  The nine month  period  ended March 31, 1997
included  an after tax charge of  $1,726,000  to help  recapitalize  the Federal
Deposit  Insurance  Corporation's  Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund (SAIF).
Comparing  the current nine month  period to the same period last year,  without
the SAIF charge, net income increased $1,406,000 or 21.7%.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income before  provision for loan losses  increased  $1,259,000 for
the  nine-month  period ended March 31, 1998,  compared to the same period ended
March 31, 1997. The reasons for this increase were primarily the same as for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1998.

Net interest income after provision for loan losses  increased by $1,241,000 for
the  nine-month  period ended March 31, 1998.  The increase is primarily  due to
interest  sensitive assets growing faster than interest bearing  liabilities for
the two comparative nine month periods.

The change to the loan loss allowance for the nine-month  period ended March 31,
1998 is as follows:

             Nine months ending March 31:    1998       1997
             ----------------------------    ----       ----
             (in thousands)  
             Allowance beginning balance   $ 3,649    $ 3,061
             Provision for loan losses .       831        813
             Charge-offs ...............      (553)      (471)
             Recoveries ................        75         55
             Loan Loss Allowance .......   $ 4,002    $ 3,458



Interest Income
Total interest  income for the nine-month  period ended March 31, 1998 increased
$3,185,000 or 8.3%,  compared to the nine-month period ended March 31, 1997. The
increase was due  primarily to the same reasons as discussed in the  three-month
period  ended  March 31,  1998.  These  reasons  include a changing  mix of loan
products  and an increase in average  loans  outstanding  for the two nine month
periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.

Interest Expense
Total  interest  expense for the  nine-months  ended  March 31,  1998  increased
$1,926,000 or 9.1%,  compared to the nine-month period ended March 31, 1997. The
increase was due  primarily to the same reasons as discussed in the  three-month
period ended March 31, 1998. These reasons include  increased  deposits and FHLB
advances outstanding.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

Other Income
Total other  income for the  nine-month  period  ended March 31, 1998  increased
$1,842,000  as compared to the same period one year ago. The increase in gain on
sale of loans is  reflective  of the  third  quarter  increase  detailed  above.
Insurance,  annuity income and other fees increased  $86,000 primarily due to an
increase in annuity  commissions  of  $122,000,  for the nine month period ended
March 31, 1998, versus the same period ended March 31, 1997. Service fees on NOW
accounts  increased  $206,000  or 16.7% due  primarily  to two  factors:  1) the
introduction  of an ATM surcharge fee in fiscal 1998;  and 2) an increase in the
number of checking  accounts.  Miscellaneous  income increased in the nine month
period  ended March 31, 1998  compared to the same period  ended March 31, 1997,
$190,000. This increase was due primarily to three factors: 1) the $107,000 gain
on sale of the Salem  branch  building  which was  relocated;  2) an increase of
$48,000  in net  appraisal  fees;  and 3) a $67,000  increase  in the  dividends
received  on FHLB  stock.  These  increases  in other  income  were  offset by a
decrease in loan  servicing  income of $197,000  for the nine month period ended
March 31, 1998 as compared to the nine month period  ended March 31, 1997.  This
decrease reflects the impairment charge on originated  mortgage servicing rights
discussed in the quarterly results.

Other Expenses
Total other  expenses for the  nine-month  period ended March 31, 1998 decreased
$2,151,000.  This  decrease  reflects the SAIF  insurance  charge of  $3,001,000
assessed  in the nine  month  period  ended  March 31,  1997.  Without  the SAIF
assessment  in 1996  other  expenses  would  have  increased  $850,000  or 7.9%.
Compensation and occupancy  expense  accounted for the majority of the increase.
The increased  compensation  and occupancy  expense were the results of the same
factors discussed in the three month period.

FINANCIAL CONDITION:
Total assets increased by $22,379,000 from June 30, 1997, to March 31, 1998. Net
loans  receivable  decreased by $6,838,000  with loans held for sale  increasing
$9,135,000. Securities available for sale (including mortgage-backed securities)
increased $18,328,000.

Total liabilities  increased  $15,447,000 from June 30, 1997, to March 31, 1998.
Senior debt decreased $6,325,000, while advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank
increased $18,125,000.

Shareholders'  equity  increased  $6,932,000  during the same  period.  Retained
earnings increased  $7,900,000 million from net income and decreased  $1,385,000
for dividends paid. Common stock increased  $205,000 for stock options exercised
during the period and decreased $4,000 for fractional shares redeemed  resulting
from  the 3 for 2 stock  split.  In  accordance  with  Statement  of  Accounting

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The OTS amended the regulatory  liquidity  requirements in the second quarter of
fiscal 1998.  The minimum  liquidity  level was reduced to 4%, the lowest amount
allowed by law,  from 5%. In addition to reducing  the  percentage  of liquidity
required, the OTS eliminated the 1% short term liquidity requirement, as well as
changing the  definition  of liquid  assets to include all  maturities of Fannie
Mae,  Freddie  Mac and Ginnie Mae  obligations  which were  formally  limited to
obligations with maturities of five years or less.  Institutions were also given
the option of excluding all deposits  with  unexpired  maturities  exceeding one
year  from  the  liquidity  base  or  continuing  the  previous  liquidity  base
calculations.  At March 31, 1998, the Bank's average liquidity ratio was 15.24%.
Historically,  the Bank has  maintained  its liquid  assets  which  qualify  for
purposes of the OTS liquidity regulations above the minimum requirements imposed
by such  regulations  and at a level believed  adequate to meet  requirements of
normal  daily  activities,  repayment  of maturing  debt and  potential  deposit
outflows.  Cash flow  projections  are regularly  reviewed and updated to assure
that  adequate  liquidity is  maintained.  Cash for these  purposes is generated
through  the sale or  maturity  of  investment  securities  and loan  sales  and
repayments,  and may be generated through  increases in deposits.  Loan payments
are a relatively  stable source of funds,  while  deposit  flows are  influenced
significantly   by  the  level  of  interest  rates  and  general  money  market
conditions. Borrowings may be used to compensate for reductions in other sources
of funds such as deposits.  As a member of the FHLB system,  the Bank may borrow
from the FHLB of Indianapolis.  At March 31, 1998, the Bank had $98.1 million in
such  borrowings.  As of that  date,  the  Bank  had  commitments  to fund  loan
originations  and purchases of  approximately  $34.0 million and  commitments to
sell  loans  of  $26.5  million.  In the  opinion  of  management,  the Bank has
sufficient  cash flow and  borrowing  capacity to meet  current and  anticipated
funding commitments.
