ITEM 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 March 31, 2000, and December 31, 1999
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
All dollar amounts, except per share amounts, included hereafter in Management's
Discussion and Analysis are in thousands.
Interest-bearing deposits and fed funds sold increased $5,727, or 48.9%, to
$17,432 at March 31, 2000. The increase is primarily the result of a slight
decrease in loans, securities and cash.
Securities available for sale and held to maturity decreased in the aggregate
$668, or 2.1%, to $30,540 at March 31, 2000, primarily due to maturities and
repayments.
Loans receivable, net, at March 31, 2000, were $113,887, a decrease of $517, or
0.5%, from $114,404 at December 31, 1999. The decrease in loans receivable, net,
was primarily due to a slight decrease in demand for adjustable-rate loans not
sold into the secondary market.
The Company's consolidated allowance for loan losses decreased slightly to $984
at March 31, 2000, from $1,038 at December 31, 1999. This decrease was primarily
due to charge-offs over recoveries of $83 net of a provision of $29.
Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2000, increased to $2,723, or 2.39% of loans
receivable, from $2,027, or 1.77% of loans receivable, at December 31, 1999. At
March 31,2000, 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 $879 at March 31, 2000, an increase of $170 from December
31, 1999, as a result of the addition of several properties net of several
dispositions.
Deposits increased $1,886, or 1.2%, to $153,465 at March 31, 2000, from $151,579
at December 31, 1999. The increase is primarily the result of fluctuations in
checking and savings account balances.
The Company had stockholders' equity of $19,198 as of March 31, 2000, an
increase of $218, or 1.1%, from $18,980 as of December 31, 1999. The increase
was primarily attributable to net income for the three months ended March 31,
2000, of $385, net of dividends of $.14 per share. Included in such dividends
was a special dividend of $.07 per share, which was declared during the first
quarter.

<PAGE>
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 March 31, 2000, 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 March 31,2000, was 19%, 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 March 31,
2000.

Results of Operations - Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and
1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000, was $385, an increase of
$74, or 23.8%, from net income of $311 for the three months ended March 31,
1999. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the Banks'
interest rate spread.
9
<PAGE>
Interest Income
- ---------------
Total interest income increased $6, or 0.2%, to $3,210 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the
average yield on interest-earning assets to 8.2% from 7.5%. This increase was
partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of interest-earnings
assets.
Interest Expense
- ----------------
Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, was $1,518, a decrease of
$261, or 14.7%, from $1,779 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The decrease
was primarily the result of a reduction in average rate paid to 4.0% for the
three months ended March 31, 2000, compared to 4.3% for the corresponding
quarter of the previous year, in addition to a decrease in average balance. The
decrease in the average rate paid on deposits is primarily the result of the
movement of rate-sensitive funds.
Net Interest Income
- -------------------
Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, increased $267, or
18.7%, to $1,692 from the quarter ended March 31, 1999, level of $1,425. This
increase was due in part to an increase in the average net interest spread to
4.1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to 3.2% for the same period a
year ago. The increase was net of a decrease in the average balance of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the first
quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to the same period a year ago. The net interest
margin increased to 4.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
Management increased the Company's total allowance for loan losses by a
provision of $29 during the quarter ended March 31, 2000. The Banks' allowances
for loan losses were based on management's evaluation of possible losses 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 March 31, 2000, decreased $23, to
$216, from the March 31, 1999, level of $239. 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 March 31, 2000, increased $126, or
11.0%, to $1,273, from the March 31, 1999, quarter of $1,147. The increase was
attributable to slight increases in employee costs and other operating expenses.

Income Taxes
- ------------
The provision for income taxes increased $44, or 24.9%, to $221 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2000, as compared to the corresponding quarter in the previous
year. The increased tax expense was due primarily to an increase in pretax
income from the same period a year ago.
