ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Management's discussion and analysis includes certain forward-looking statements
addressing,  among other  things,  the Company's  prospects for earnings,  asset
growth and net interest margin.  Forward-looking  statements are accompanied by,
and  identified  with,  such  terms  as  "anticipates,"  "believes,"  "expects,"
"intends,"  and similar  phrases.  Management's  expectations  for the Company's
future necessarily  involve a number of assumptions and estimates.  Factors that
could cause actual results to differ from the expectations expressed herein are:
substantial  changes in  interest  rates,  changes in the general  economy,  and
changes in the Company's  strategies for credit-risk  management,  interest-rate
risk  management and investment  activities.  Accordingly,  any  forward-looking
statements  included herein do not purport to be predictions of future events or
circumstances and may not be realized.

Comparison of Financial Condition as of June 30, 1999, and December 31, 1998

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

Cash and cash  equivalents  decreased  $8,180,  or 18.7%, to $35,455 at June 30,
1999, from $43,635 at December 31, 1998.  This decrease is primarily  related to
the decrease in deposits for the same period,

                                        8
<PAGE>
net of an increase in loans and securities.  The Banks had 14-month and 19-month
special certificate of deposit programs and these certificates matured primarily
during the first half of 1999. Some rate sensitive funds were not retained.

Securities  available for sale and held to maturity  increased $3,825, or 16.2%,
to $27,410 at June 30, 1999,  primarily due to purchases  totaling  $12,252 less
securities totaling $8,130 either maturing,  being called prior to maturity,  or
payments being received.

Loans receivable,  net, at June 30, 1999, were $111,277,  an increase of $2,068,
or 1.9%,  from $109,209 at December 31, 1998. The increase in loans  receivable,
net, was primarily due to an increase in the  origination of mortgage loans that
were retained in the Banks' portfolios.

The  Company's  consolidated  allowance  for loan losses  decreased  slightly to
$1,071 at June 30, 1999,  from $1,081 at December 31, 1998. This decrease of $10
was due to net charge-offs  over recoveries of $67 offset by a provision of $57.
Nonperforming  loans,  which  includes  nonaccruing  loans  and  accruing  loans
delinquent ninety days or more, at June 30, 1999,  decreased to $1,291, or 1.16%
of loans  receivable,  from $1,735, or 1.48% of loans receivable at December 31,
1998.  At  June  30,  1999,  there  were  no  material  loans  not  included  in
nonperforming  loans which  represented  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 $224 at June 30,  1999,  a decrease of $500 from  December
31, 1998,  as a result of the sale of several  properties  during the six months
ended June 30, 1999.

Deposits  decreased $4,354, or 2.6%, to $162,903 at June 30, 1999, from $167,257
at December  31, 1998.  The decrease in deposits is primarily  the result of the
maturity of certificates of deposit  generated in special programs as previously
discussed.

The Company had stockholders' equity of $18,445 as of June 30, 1999, an increase
of $242, or 1.3%,  from $18,203 as of December 31, 1998. The primary  components
of the change were net income for the six months  ended June 30,  1999,  of $644
less dividends of $.21 per share totaling $521.

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, 1999, the Banks had commitments to
originate and fund loans of $8.6 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 ratio of First Federal at June 30, 1999, was 23.8%, which
exceeded the applicable regulatory  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, 1999.

As of June  30,  1999,  management  was  not  aware  of any  trends,  events  or
uncertainties  that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect
on the Company's or the Banks' liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Results  of  Operations - Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 1999 and
1998

Net income for the three  months  ended June 30,  1999,  was $333, a decrease of
$43, or 11.4%, from net income of $376 for the three months ended June 30, 1998.
The decrease was primarily  attributable  to an increase in noninterest  expense
related to upgrades in technology including preparation for Year 2000.

Interest Income

Total interest  income  decreased  $168, or 5.0%, to $3,215 for the three months
ended June 30,  1999.  This  decrease  was  primarily  due to a decrease  in the
average  yield  on   interest-earning   assets  to  7.7%,   from  8.2%  for  the
corresponding  quarter of the previous year,  offset by a slight increase in the
average balance of interest-earning assets.

Interest Expense

Interest  expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, was $1,646, a decrease of
$161, or 8.9%, to $1,646 from the quarter ended June 30, 1998.  The decrease was
primarily  the result of a decrease in the average rate paid on deposits for the
three  months  ended  June 30,  1999,  to 4.0% from  4.6% for the  corresponding
quarter of the previous year, net of a slight increase in the average balance of
deposits.

Net Interest Income

Net interest  income for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, was $1,569 compared to
$1,576 for the quarter

                                       10
<PAGE>
ended June 30, 1998. The average net interest spread increased  slightly to 3.7%
for the three months  ended June 30, 1999,  from 3.6% for the same period in the
prior year. The net interest margin was 3.8% for the three months ended June 30,
1999 and June 30, 1998.

Provision for Loan Losses

Management  increased  the  Company's  total  allowance  for  loan  losses  by a
provision of $28 during the quarter ended June 30, 1999.  The Banks'  allowances
for loan  losses  were  based on  management's  evaluation  of  possible  losses
inherent in the loan portfolio and consider,  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 Income

Noninterest  income  during the quarter ended June 30, 1999,  increased  $26, to
$230, from the June 30, 1998, level of $204. The increase in noninterest  income
is primarily the result of an increase in secondary market fees for loans sold.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest  expenses  during the quarter ended June 30, 1999,  increased $59 to
$1,244 from the June 30, 1998, level of $1,185. Increases in noninterest expense
are related to upgrades in technology including preparation for Year 2000.

Income Taxes

The  provision  for income taxes  increased $4, or 2.1%, to $194 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the corresponding quarter in 1998.

Results  of  Operations - Comparison  of  the Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 and
1998

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was $644, a decrease of $118,
from net income of $762 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was
primarily  attributable to a decrease in the Banks' interest rate spread because
of a higher liquidity position on average during the current year.

Interest Income

Total  interest  income  decreased  $344,  or 5.1%, to $6,419 for the six months
ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in the
average yield on the interest-earning assets to 7.6% during the six months ended
June 30, 1999, from 8.2% during the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease
was partially  offset by an increase in the average balance of  interest-earning
assets  during the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1998.

Interest Expense

Interest  expense for the six months ended June 30,  1999,  decreased  $201,  or
5.5%,  to $3,425,  from $3,626  during the six months ended June 30, 1998.  This
decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction

                                       11
<PAGE>
in the average rate paid on deposits to 4.2% for the six month period ended June
30, 1999, compared to 4.6% for the same period a year ago.

Net Interest Income

Net interest  income for the six months ended June 30, 1999,  decreased $142, or
4.6%,  to  $2,937,  from  $3,079 for the six months  ended June 30,  1998.  This
decrease was due  primarily to a decrease in the average net interest  spread to
3.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1999,  from 3.6% for the six months ended
June 30, 1998. The net interest margin decreased to 3.5% in the six months ended
June 30, 1999, from 3.8% in the six months ended June 30, 1998.

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company's consolidated  allowances for loan losses are based on management's
evaluation  of  possible  losses  inherent in the loan  portfolios.  Among other
factors,  management  considers  historical loss  experience,  current  economic
conditions,  distribution of the loan portfolios by risk class and the estimated
value  of the  underlying  collateral.  The  allowances  for  loan  losses  were
increased  by  provisions  totaling  $57 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
These  provisions  were recorded to maintain the  allowances  for loan losses at
adequate levels based on management's best estimates.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest  income for the six  months  ended June 30,  1999,  totaled  $469 as
compared  to $396 for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1998.  The  increase  in
noninterest  income is primarily  the result of an increase in secondary  market
fees for loans sold.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses during the six months ended June 30, 1999, increased $59 to
$2,391 from the fiscal 1998 level of $2,332. The increase in noninterest expense
is partially  related to upgrades in technology  including  preparation for Year
2000.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes  decreased  $10, to $371 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999, as compared to the  corresponding  period of the prior year.  The
decreased tax expense was due to the decrease in pretax income.

Year 2000

The Company has addressed, and will continue to address, the issue of Year 2000,
which  relates to software  originally  being  written  using a two digit format
rather than a four digit format to represent  the year.  The date change  format
requires modification to some software and computer systems so that dates beyond
December 31, 1999, will be properly recognized. The Banks have formed committees
to assess,  test,  prepare and overview the applicable  software,  equipment and
related  technologies  related to Year 2000 readiness.  This assessment  covered
both information technology systems and non-information technology systems.

                                       12
<PAGE>
The Banks rely primarily  upon a third party  processor and other vendors rather
than  internally-generated  software.  Based on the  analysis  of  software  and
equipment, in addition to ongoing discussions with vendors, the Company believes
that upgrades,  modifications  or conversion of software  planned by the Company
and the third party vendors will properly address the Year 2000 issue. The third
party  processor,  which processes all customer related data, has represented to
the Banks that the testing of the software had been  substantially  completed at
June 30, 1999.  The Banks have  adopted Year 2000 Test Plans and have  conducted
testing and evaluated results.  Management presently believes that the Year 2000
issue will not pose a substantial internal operating risk to the Company.

Additionally,  the Company has implemented a process for assessing  readiness of
various suppliers of other services.  There can be no guarantee,  however,  that
the systems of these  outside  parties  will be Year 2000  compliant on a timely
basis.  In turn,  this  could  result in  disruption  to the  operations  of the
Company.

The Banks have  adopted a Year 2000  Contingency  Plan which  would  replace its
computerized operations with a manual system, if necessary.

The Banks are educating and assisting  customers in identifying  their Year 2000
issues.  It has been  determined that this is a relatively low risk area in that
the Banks' commercial  customers have a minimal reliance on computers to conduct
business.

Total Year 2000 costs include such items as payroll  costs,  upgrading  existing
software applications, replacing certain hardware and customer awareness program
materials. The Banks do not have a system that specifically tracks all costs and
time spent on the Year 2000 issue.  The Company is in the process of  estimating
total  expense  related to Year 2000.  Externally  generated  expenses  incurred
during the quarter ended June 30, 1999, are not considered significant.
