NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(A) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of First Alliance
Corporation and its Subsidiaries ( the "Company") for the six month period
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited. However, in the opinion of the
Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected therein.
Certain financial information which is normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but which
is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been omitted. The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995. Certain
reclassifications have been made in the prior period financial statements
to conform with the current year presentation.
(B) Subsidiary Operations
The Company's wholly owned life insurance subsidiary, First Alliance Insurance
Company ("FAIC"), was formed on December 29, 1994. Operations did not commence
until November of 1995. Additionally, the Company's wholly owned venture
capital subsidiary, First Kentucky Capital Corporation ("FKCC"), did not
commence operations until April of 1996. Accordingly, the condensed
consolidated financial information for the six month period ending June 30,
1995, reflects only results of the Company during its initial public offering.
(C) Investments
The Company classifies all of its available-for-sale fixed maturities at the
current market value. Adjustments to market value are recognized as a separate
component of shareholders' equity net of applicable federal income tax effects.
The following table details the investment values at June 30, 1996:
Gross
Amortized Unrealized Fair
Cost Loss Value
U.S. Government Obligations $ 7,574,367 ($ 248,666) $ 7,325,701

Corporate Obligations 1,783,308 ( 41,208) 1,742,100
$10,360,198 ($ 306,708) $10,053,490
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(D) Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
Certain costs related to the acquisition of life insurance have been deferred
to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues and gross profits. These
acquisition cost are being amortized over the premium paying period of the
related policies. Deferred policy acquisition costs are summarized below:
June 30, 1996
Balance beginning of year $ 51,212
Policy acquisition costs, deferred 423,119
Amortization (108,018)
Balance at end of quarter $366,313
(E) Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per share for the six months ending June 30, 1996 and 1995 are based on
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods.
During the Company's public stock offering, shares sold were assumed outstanding
for 1/2 a month in the month they were sold. Shares issued prior to January 1,
1995 are assumed to be outstanding for the entire year. During January,
February and March of 1995, the Company sold 33,184, 23,594, and 23,328 Units
respectively. During April, May and June the Company sold 31,943, 24,372, and
35,696 Units respectively. At October 31, 1995, the public stock offering
had been completed and all Units sold are considered outstanding. On April
28, 1996, substantially all of the 550,000 preferred shares were converted to
common stock (see Note F). Accordingly, the weighted average common
shares outstanding are 5,579,840 and 3,101,140 at June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
(F) Conversion of Preferred Stock
Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements, a subscriber could elect,
at the time of the sale, to convert their preferred stock shares to shares of
common stock. The subscriber was allowed to revoke this conversion during a
six month period starting on the date the offering was completed. The
offering was completed on October 28, 1995 and conversions were allowed until
April 28, 1996. Each share of preferred stock could be converted into four
shares of common stock. On April 28, 1996, substantially all of the preferred
shareholders converted their preferred shares to common shares. Accordingly,
the total number of common shares outstanding increased to 5,579,840 on
April 28, 1996.
(G) Federal Income Taxes
Federal income tax expense is calculated based on the income of FAIC. During
interim periods, federal income tax expense is estimated based on annualized
earnings. Federal income tax expense at June 30, 1996 was estimated at $38,800
of which $24,400 is currently payable.
(H) Capitalization of FKCC and Acquisition of Medical Acceptance Corporation
On April 12, 1996, the Company capitalized FKCC by purchasing fifty shares of
FKCC's Common Stock for $50,000. Additional capitalization will be provided as
determined by the Company's Management.
On April 12, 1996, FKCC purchased 51% of Medical Acceptance Corporation, ("MAC")
of Lexington, Kentucky. Accordingly, the acquisition will be accounted for as a
purchase. The purchase price for MAC's common stock was $50,000. Goodwill,
which totaled $10,500, is amortized over a period of sixty months.
MAC purchases receivables from medical providers at a discount. The receivables
are in the form of contracts in which the patient makes monthly payments of
principal and interest directly to MAC. MAC retains all of the principal and
interest paid. The contracts are for terms of six to thiry-six months and have
an annual percentage rate of nineteen percent. In the event of default, MAC
has total recourse against the medical provider for the amount of the
patient's unpaid principal balance. FKCC will provide MAC a $200,000 line of
credit for the purchase of receivables.
The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations reflects operating results of
MAC from the date of acquisition. The following pro forma Information presents
consolidated operating results as if MAC was purchased at the beginning of the
periods presented:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial Condition
Total assets increased by $159,853 from December 31, 1995 to June 30, 1996.
During 1996, deferred policy acquisition costs increased $315,101 net of
amortization. Fixed maturity investments were adjusted to fair market value in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115. These
adjustments have no earnings effect. The valuation allowance reducing fixed
maturity investments totaled $306,708 at June 30, 1996.
Liabilities increased by $457,069 during the period from December 31, 1995 to
June 30, 1996. The increase in liabilities is primarily related to the insurance
operations of FAIC. At June 30, 1996, life insurance related liabilities
totaled $691,936 which includes $200,329 of reserves and $246,827 of annuity
contract liabilities.
The minority interest represents the 49% ownership by other shareholders of MAC
which was acquired in April of 1996 by FKCC.
Liquidity
Other than normal operating expenditures, the Company does not anticipate any
significant capital expenditures. The Company may make investments in two other
companies, however the total of both investments will not exceed $150,000.
These investments will be made sometime in the third quarter and the Company
will own less than 10% of both companies. Management believes that the funds
provided from operations and the working capital available from the public
stock offering will adequately meet the Company's cash flow needs.
Results of Operations
A comparison of the results of operations during the first six months of 1996
and 1995 is not meaningful since the Company was in the development stage until
October 28, 1995. During 1995, interest income was the only source of revenue.
During 1996, FAIC provided additional revenue from the sale of life insurance.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, revenues totaled $732,033 of which
$420,462 was related to FAIC's insurance sales. Revenues increased by $348,323
over first quarter of 1996 results which includes $191,924 of FAIC's premium
income.
Associated with the sale of insurance policies, is the establishment of a
reserve in the event of policyholder deaths. The increases in policy reserves
are recognized as an expense. For the six months ending June 30, 1996, policy
reserve expense totaled $ 175,057. Certain expenses related to the acquisition
of life insurance, such as commissions and policy administration, are
capitalized and amortized over the premium paying period of the policies.
During 1996, $423,119 of these expenses were recorded as assets. Amortization
of deferred policy acquisition costs totaled $108,018 during 1996 of which
$76,689 was in the second quarter. Costs related to FAIC's sales
agency increased by $29,884 over the first quarter to $64,878 during 1996.
These costs include health insurance, agency meetings and other costs directly
related to the sales agency. Costs related to the administration and issuance
of life insurance policies totaled $82,646 for the six month period ended June
30, 1996, and are classified as other insurance benefits and expenses.
The insurance administration expenses increased by $46,306 over the first
quarter of 1996. There were no insurance related expenses for the same periods
in 1995. Professional and other fees totaled $63,222 as the result of
additional audit expenses of $19,250 that were not accrued at
December 31, 1995 and fees of $16,362 payable to the Company's Advisory Board
Members.
Also included in operating results is the Company's share of the losses of MAC
since the date of acquisition. The Company's portion of MAC's revenue and
expenses reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of income are
$348 and $8,504, respectively.
