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

Comparison of Financial Condition as of June 30, 1996, and March 31, 1996
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

All dollar amounts, except per share amounts, included hereafter in Management's
Discussion and Analysis are in thousands.

Primarily due to an increase in mortgage-backed securities and overnight
investments, the Company's total assets at June 30, 1996, increased to $176,310;
an increase of $10,126 or 6.1%, from total assets of $166,184 at March 31, 1996.

Securities available for sale and held to maturity increased in the aggregate
$1,500, or 10.2%, to $16,153 at June 30, 1996, primarily due to government
agency notes totalling $1,460 maturing or being called prior to maturity and the
purchase of $3,076 of government agency notes.

Loans receivable, net, at June 30, 1996, were $126,149, a decrease of $50, or
 .04%, from $126,199 at March 31, 1996.  The decrease in  loans receivable, net,
was primarily due to repayments and the origination of loans to be sold in the
secondary market rather than to be held in the Banks' portfolio.

The Banks' total allowance for loan losses were $637 at June 30, 1996, an
increase of $16 from March 31, 1996.  There was a $30 provision offset by the
net of charge-offs over recoveries of $14.

Nonperforming loans at June 30, 1996, were $1,107, or .88%, of loans receivable
which is comparable to nonperforming loans at March 31, 1996, of $599, or .47%,
of loans receivable.  At June 30, 1996, there were no loans not included in
nonperforming loans which represent material credits about which management was
aware of any information which caused management to have serious doubts as to
the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.  Real
estate owned was $34 at June 30, 1996, an increase of $22 from March 31, 1996,
as a result of one foreclosure of $27, net of a disposition of $5.

Deposits increased $10,105, or 6.9% to $155,963 at June 30, 1996, from $145,858
at March 31, 1996.  The increase was primarily related to a 60th Anniversary
certificate of deposit program implemented during the first quarter of fiscal
1997.

The Company had stockholders' equity of $17,462 as of June 30, 1996, an increase
of $231, or 1.3%, from $17,231 as of March 31, 1996.  The net increase was
primarily attributable to net income for the three months ended June 30, 1996,
of $360, or $.58 per

                                       6

share, net of dividends of $.36 per share that included a special dividend of
$.16 per share, declared during the first quarter, totalling $220.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Traditionally, the Banks' principal sources of funds have been deposits,
principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, and
proceeds from interest on and maturities of investments. In addition, First
Federal has borrowing ability from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta if the
need for additional funds arises. At June 30, 1996, the Banks had commitments to
originate and fund loans of $5.0 million.

The Banks anticipate that they will have sufficient funds available to meet
their current commitments.

First Federal is required by regulation to maintain minimum levels of liquid
assets.  The liquidity of First Federal at June 30, 1996, was 11.9%, which
exceeded the applicable 5.0% liquidity requirement.

Under applicable regulations, First Federal, First State and the Company are
each required to maintain minimum capital ratios.  Set forth below are actual
capital ratios and the minimum regulatory capital requirements as of June 30,
1996.

Results of Operations - Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 and
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1995
- ----

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1996, was $360, an increase of
$178, or 97.8%, from net income of $182 for the three

months ended June 30, 1995.  The increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in the interest rate spread and an increase in the average balance of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the period ended
June 30, 1996, when compared to the same period a year ago.  The increase in net
interest-earning assets was primarily the result of the acquisition of First
State on January 2, 1996, and the increase in cash received from the 60th
Anniversary certificate of deposit program.

Interest Income
- ---------------

Total interest income increased $796, or 33.3%, to $3,183 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996.  This increase was partially the result of an increase in
the average balance of interest earning assets during the three months ended
June 30, 1996, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1995.  This
increase was also due to an increase in the average yield to 8.1% during the
three months ended June 30, 1996, from 7.6% for the corresponding quarter of the
previous year.

Interest income on loans increased $638, or 29.9% to $2,774 during the three
months ended June 30, 1996, from $2,136 for the three months ended June 30,
1995.  The increase in interest income on loans was attributable to the increase
in the average yield on loans to 8.7% for the three months ended June 30, 1996
compared to 7.8% for the corresponding quarter of the previous year.  The

increase was also due to a 17.4% increase in the average balance of loans during
the first quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1996
as a result of the addition of First State.

Interest earned on mortgage-backed securities decreased $5, or 5.6%, to $84 for
the three months ended June 30, 1996, from $89 for the corresponding three
months ended June 30, 1995.  The decrease was primarily attributable to a
decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities during the quarter
ended June 30, 1996, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1995, a result of
principal repayments and prepayments.

Interest and dividends on the securities portfolio increased $104, or 89.7%,
during the first quarter of fiscal 1997 from the first quarter of fiscal 1996,
reflecting a 107.7% increase in the average balance of securities.  The increase
in securities was the result of the acquisition of First State.

Interest Expense
- ----------------

Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, increased $405, or 30.7%,
to $1,724 during the quarter ended June 30, 1996.  The increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in the average balance during the quarter ended June
30, 1996, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1996 as a result of the
addition of First State and a 60th Anniversary certificate of deposit program.

Net Interest Income
- -------------------

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, increased $391, or
36.6%, to $1,459 from the first quarter of fiscal 1996 level of $1,068.  This
increase was due in part to an increase in the average net interest spread to
3.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 from 2.8% in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996.  The increase was also due to an increase in the average balance of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the first
quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1996,primarily as
a result of the addition of First State.  The net interest margin increased to
3.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 from 3.4% for the first quarter of
fiscal 1996.

Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------

Management increased the Banks' total allowance for loan losses by a provision
of $30 during the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

The Banks' allowances for loan losses were based on management's evaluation of
possible losses inherent in the loan portfolio and considers, among other
factors, prior years' loss experience, economic conditions, distribution of
portfolio loans by risk class and the estimated value of the underlying
collateral.

Noninterest Expenses
- --------------------

Noninterest expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 1996, increased $265 to
$1,068 from the fiscal 1996 first quarter level of $803.  The increase was
primarily due to the addition of First State.

Income Taxes
- ------------

The provision for income taxes increased $68, or 53.5%, to $195 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1996, as compared to the corresponding quarter of the prior
fiscal year.  The increased tax expense was due primarily to the 79.6% increase
in pretax income from the same period a year ago.

Recent Events

First Federal's savings deposits are insured by the Savings Association
Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), which is administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC"). The assessment rate currently ranges from 0.23% of
deposits for well capitalized institutions to 0.31% of deposits for
undercapitalized institutions. The FDIC also administers the Bank Insurance Fund
("BIF"), which has the same designated reserve ratio as the SAIF. On August 8,
1995, the FDIC adopted an amendment to the BIF risk-based assessment schedule
which lowered the deposit insurance assessment rate for most commercial banks
and other depository institutions with deposits insured by the BIF to a range of
from 0.31% of insured deposits for undercapitalized BIF-insured institutions to
0.04% of deposits for well-capitalized institutions, which constitutes over 90%
of BIF-insured institutions. The FDIC amendment became effective for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995. The amendment created a substantial disparity in the
deposit insurance premiums paid by BIF and SAIF members and could place SAIF-
insured savings institutions at a significant competitive disadvantage to BIF-
insured institutions.

A number of proposals are being considered to recapitalize the SAIF in order to
eliminate the BIF/SAIF premium disparity.  The most common discussed proposals
considered by the Congress provide for a one time assessment of approximately
80% of insured deposits to be imposed on all SAIF-insured deposits held as of
March 31, 1995.  Also under consideration is the merger of the BIF and SAIF into
one fund as soon as practicable after they both reach their designated reserve
ratios.  At this time, it is unknown whether any proposal will be implemented or
whether premiums for either BIF or SAIF members will be adjusted in the future
by the FDIC or by legislative action.  If a special assessment as described
above were to be required, it would result in a one-time charge with an after
tax impact to First Federal of up to $600.  First Federal would continue to
exceed all regulatory capital requirements if such a special assessment were
required.  If such a special assessment were required and the SAIF as a result
were fully recapitalized, it could have the effect of reducing First Federal's
deposit insurance premiums to the SAIF, thereby increasing net income in future
periods.

On August 2, 1996, Congress passed the Small Business Job Protection Act that,
if signed by the President into law, will among other things, repeal the tax bad
debt reserve method for thrifts effective for taxable years beginning after
December 31, 1995. As a result, thrifts must recapture into taxable income the
amount of their post-1987 tax bad debt reserves over a six-year period beginning
after 1995. This recapture can be deferred for up to two years if the thift
satisfies a residential loan portfolio test. The impact of this proposed
legislation, if any, is not expected to be material to the consolidated
financial statements.
