              3.SEGMENT DISCLOSURE:
                ------------------

               The holding company is considered a separate reportable segment
               from the banking operations since it does not offer products or
               services or interact with customers, but does meet the
               quantitative threshold as outlined in the accounting standards.
               The Company's segment disclosure is as follows for the three and
               six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

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, 2000, and December 31, 1999
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3,318, or 18.6%, to $14,519 at June 30,
2000, from $17,837 at December 31, 1999. This decrease is primarily related to
the decrease in deposits and an increase in loans for the same period.

                                       8
<PAGE>


Securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity decreased $322, or 1.0%, to
$30,886 at June 30, 2000, primarily due to repayments, sells and calls less
purchases totaling $1,847.

Loans receivable, net, at June 30, 2000, were $116,388, an increase of $1,984,
or 1.7%, from $114,404 at December 31, 1999. 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 $983
at June 30, 2000, from $1,038 at December 31, 1999. This decrease of $55 was due
to net charge-offs over recoveries of $112 offset by a provision of $57.
Nonperforming loans, which includes nonaccruing loans and accruing loans
delinquent ninety days or more, at June 30, 2000, increased to $2,779, or 2.39%
of loans receivable, from $2,027, or 1.77% of loans receivable at December 31,
1999. At June 30, 2000, 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 $976 at June 30, 2000, an increase of $267 from December
31, 1999, as a result of foreclosures net of sells during the six months ended
June 30, 2000.

Deposits decreased $1,719, or 1.1%, to $149,860 at June 30, 2000, from $151,579
at December 31, 1999. The decrease in deposits is primarily the result of the
maturity of certificates of deposit generated in special programs. Some rate
sensitive funds were not retained.

The Company had stockholders' equity of $19,503 as of June 30, 2000, an increase
of $523, or 2.8%, from $18,980 as of December 31, 1999. The primary components
of the change were net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000, of $821
less dividends of $.21 per share totaling $528.

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, 2000, the Banks had commitments to
originate and fund loans of $8.7 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, 2000, was 16.4%, 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, 2000.

</TABLE>

As of June 30, 2000, 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, 2000
and 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2000, was $436, an increase of
$103, or 30.9%, from net income of $333 for the three months ended June 30,
1999. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in net interest
income resulting from an increase in interest rate spread. The increase in
interest rate spread is the result of the Banks maintaining on average less
assets in short-term liquid investments, coupled with an increase in yield on
adjustable rate loans, and the repricing and movement of higher yielding
certificates of deposit.

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

Total interest income increased $102, or 3.2%, to $3,317 for the three months
ended June 30, 2000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the
average yield on interest-earning assets to 8.5%, from 7.7% for the
corresponding quarter of the previous year, offset by a decrease in the average
balance of interest-earning assets.

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

Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, was $1,532, a decrease of
$114, or 6.9%, from $1,646 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The decrease was
primarily the result of a decrease in the average balance of deposits of 9.3%
for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same quarter a year
ago, offset by a slight increase in the average rate paid on deposits for the
three months ended June 30, 2000, to 4.1% from 4.0% for the corresponding
quarter of the previous year.

                                       10


<PAGE>
Net Interest Income
-------------------

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, was $1,785 compared to
$1,569 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The average net interest spread
increased to 4.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from 3.7% for the
same period in the prior year. The net interest margin increase to 4.6% for the
three months ended June 30, 2000, from 3.8% for the three months ended June 30,
1999.

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, 2000. The Company's allowance
for loan losses is based on  management's  evaluation of 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, 2000, decreased $7, to
$223, from the June 30, 1999, level of $230. The decrease in noninterest income
is primarily the result of a decrease in secondary market fees for loans sold.

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

Noninterest expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2000, increased $35 to
$1,279 from the June 30, 1999, level of $1,244. The increase in noninterest
expense is primarily attributable to a slight increase in compensation expense.

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

The provision for income taxes increased $71, or 36.6%, to $265 for the quarter
ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the corresponding quarter in 1999. The
increased tax expense was due to the increase in pretax income.

Results of Operations-Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000, was $821, an increase of
$177, or 27.5%, from net income of $644 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the Banks' interest
rate spread. The increase in interest rate spread is the result of the Banks
maintaining on average less assets in short-term liquid investments, coupled
with an increase in yield on adjustable rate loans, and the repricing and
movement of higher yielding certificates of deposit.

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

Total interest income increased $108, or 1.7%, to $6,527 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in
the average yield on the interest-earning assets to 8.3% during the six months
ended June 30, 2000, from 7.6% during the six months ended June 30, 1999. The


                                       11


<PAGE>
increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of
interest-earning assets during the six months ended June 30, 2000, as compared
to the six months ended June 30, 1999.

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

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000, decreased $375, or
11.0%, to $3,050, from $3,425 during the six months ended June 30, 1999. This
decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in the average balance of
deposits of 8.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same
period a year ago, coupled with a decrease in the average rate paid on deposits
to 4.1% for the six month period ended June 30, 2000, compared to 4.2% for the
same period a year ago.

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

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000, increased $453, or
15.1%, to $3,447, from $2,994 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This
increase was due primarily to an increase in the average net interest spread to
4.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2000, from 3.4% for the six months ended
June 30, 1999. The net interest margin increased to 4.4% in the six months ended
June 30, 2000, from 3.5% in the six months ended June 30, 1999.

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

The Company's consolidated allowance for loan losses is based on management's
evaluation of 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 allowance for loan losses was increased by provisions
totaling $57 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. These provisions were
recorded to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level based on
management's best estimates.

Noninterest Income
------------------

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000, totaled $439 as
compared to $469 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in
noninterest income is primarily the result of a decrease in secondary market
fees for loans sold.

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

Noninterest  expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2000,  increased $161
to $2,552 from the 1999 level of $2,391. The increase in noninterest  expense is
primarily attributable to a slight increase in compensation expense.

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

The provision for income taxes increased $115, to $486 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000, as compared to $371 for the corresponding period of the prior
year. The increased tax expense was due to the increase in pretax income.
