                         STATEFED FINANCIAL CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           For the Three Months Ending
                    September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998
                                   (Unaudited)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATIONS

     These consolidated  financial  statements are unaudited (with the exception
of the Consolidated  Statement of Financial  Condition for June 30, 1999). These
consolidated  financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions
for Form 10-QSB and therefore,  do not include all  disclosures  necessary for a
complete  presentation of the statements of financial  condition,  statements of
income  and  statements  of cash flows in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  However, in the opinion of management,  all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated  financial statements have
been included.  Results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
results  expected for the year. The interim  consolidated  financial  statements
include the accounts of StateFed Financial Corporation (the "Corporation"),  its
subsidiary,  State Federal Savings and Loan  Association  (the  "Association" or
"State Federal") and the Association's subsidiary, State Service Corporation.

     These  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with  the  consolidated
financial  statements and related notes,  which are incorporated by reference in
the company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-KSB for the year,  which ended June 30,
1999.

2.   EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK

     Basic earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted-average shares
outstanding during the period,  less shares in the ESOP that are unallocated and
not committed to be released. Weighted-average common shares outstanding totaled
1,459,591 at September 30, 1999 and 1,493,089 at September 30, 1998.

     Diluted  earnings  per  share is  computed  by  considering  common  shares
outstanding  and  dilutive  potential  common  shares  to be  issued  under  the
Company's stock option plan.  Weighted-average  common shares deemed outstanding
for the purpose of computing  diluted  earnings per share  totaled  1,497,935 at
September 30, 1999 and 1,541,737 at September 30, 1998.

3.   REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

     Pursuant  to Federal  law,  savings  institutions  must meet four  separate
capital requirements. The Association's capital ratios and balances at September
30, 1999 are as follows:

                                  PART I ITEM 2

                         STATEFED FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                       Condition and Results of Operations

General

     The  accompanying   Consolidated   Financial  Statements  include  StateFed
Financial  Corporation  (the "Company") and its wholly owned  subsidiary,  State
Federal  Savings  and Loan  Association  (the  "Association").  All  significant
inter-company  transactions  and balances are eliminated in  consolidation.  The
Company's results of operations are primarily dependent on the Association's net
interest  margin,  which is the  difference  between  interest  income earned on
interest-earning   assets  and  interest   expense   paid  on   interest-bearing
liabilities.  The  Association's net income is also affected by the level of its
non-interest  expenses,  such as employee  compensation and benefits,  occupancy
expenses, and other expenses.

     When used in this Form  10-QSB and in future  filings  with the SEC, in the
Company's press releases or other public or shareholder communications,  as well
as in oral  statements  made by the  executive  officers  of the  Company or its
primary  subsidiary,  the words or phrases  "will likely  result," "are expected
to,"  "will  continue,"  "is  anticipated,"  "estimated,"  "project"  or similar
expressions  are intended to identify  "forward-looking  statements"  within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties,  including,  among other things,
changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, changes in policies
by regulatory agencies,  fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the
Company's market area and competition, that could cause actual results to differ
materially  from  historical   earnings  and  those  presently   anticipated  or
projected.  The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on
any such forward-looking  statements,  which speak only as of the date made. The
Company  wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect its
financial  performance  and could cause its actual results for future periods to
differ  materially  from any opinions or  statements  expressed  with respect to
future periods in any current statements.

     The   Company   does   not   undertake--and   specifically   declines   any
obligation--to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to
any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or  unanticipated
events.

Financial Condition

     The Company's total assets decreased  $600,000,  from $90.8 million at June
30, 1999 to $90.2 million at September 30, 1999. This decrease was due primarily
to a decrease in cash and amounts due

                                     - 10 -

<PAGE>


from  depository  institutions  of $4.3 million and a decrease in investments in
certificates  of  $199,300,  partially  offset  by  an  increase  in  net  loans
receivable   of   $2.9   million,   an   increase   in   investment   securities
available-for-sale  of  $976,000  and  an  increase  in  real  estate  held  for
investment of $163,300.

     Cash and amounts due from depository  institutions  decreased $4.3 million,
from $8.5 million at June 30, 1999 to $4.2 million at  September  30, 1999.  The
decrease in cash and amounts due from depository institutions occurred primarily
as a result of an increase in net loan  receivable of $2.9 million,  an increase
in  investment  securities  available-for-sale  of  $976,000  and a decrease  in
deposits of $335,000.

     Net loans receivable increased $2.9 million, from $72.3 million at June 30,
1999 to $75.2 million at September 30, 1999. Repayment of principal totaled $2.7
million  for the  three-month  period,  while loan  origination's  totaled  $3.5
million and purchased loans totaled $2.1 million for the same period.

     Total deposits decreased by $335,000 from $54.7 million at June 30, 1999 to
$54.4 million at September 30, 1999.  Passbook accounts  decreased  $420,000 and
certificates  accounts  decreased  $764,000,  while money  market fund  accounts
increased $819,000 and NOW accounts increased $30,000.

     Total  stockholders'  equity decreased  $56,500 from $16.12 million at June
30, 1999 to $16.07  million  September 30, 1999.  The decrease was primarily the
result of the cost to  repurchase  the  Company's  stock of $148,600,  dividends
declared of $112,800,  and a decrease in  unrealized  gain (loss) on  investment
securities  of  $93,700,  partially  offset  by the  result of net  earnings  of
$245,200 and accounting for employee stock awards and options of $53,400.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ending September 30,
1999 and September 30, 1998

     General.  Net income  increased  $20,200 to $245,200  for the three  months
ended  September 30, 1999 from $225,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1998.  The  increase  in net  income was  primarily  due to an  increase  in net
interest  income of $31,100  and a decrease in  non-interest  expense of $7,000,
partially offset by an increase in income tax expense of $19,000.

     Net Interest Income.  Net interest income  increased  $31,100 from $667,600
for the three months ended  September  30, 1998 to $698,700 for the three months
ended  September 30, 1999.  This increase was primarily the result of a decrease
in  interest  expense of $73,700,  offset by an  increase in interest  income of
$42,600.

     Interest Income.  Interest income decreased $42,600, from $1.71 million for
the three months ended  September 30, 1998 to $1.66 million for the three months
ended  September 30, 1999, as a result of a decrease in other interest earned of
$42,500 as well as a decrease in interest on investments  of $23,000,  partially
offset by an increase in interest earned on the loan portfolio of $22,900. Other
interest  income  decreased  primarily  because of a decrease  in the balance of
other interest earning assets.

     Interest Expense.  Interest expense decreased $73,700 from $1.04 million in
the three months ended  September 30, 1998 to $964,800 in the three months ended
September 30, 1999. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in interest
paid on deposits of $54,600 and a decrease  in interest  paid on  borrowings  of
$19,100. The average interest rate on deposits and borrowings decreased slightly
from the prior period.

     Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses remained unchanged
in the three  months  ended  September  30, 1999 as compared to the three months
ended September 30, 1998. The provision  during the three months ended September
30, 1999 was based on  management's  analysis of the  allowance for loan losses.
The Company  will  continue to monitor  its  allowance  for loan losses and make
future  additions  to the  allowance  through the  provision  for loan losses as
economic  conditions  dictate.  Although the Company maintains its allowance for
loan  losses  at a level  which it  considers  to be  adequate  to  provide  for
potential  losses,  there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed
estimated  amounts or that  additional  provisions  for loan  losses will not be
required for future periods.

     Non-interest Income.  Non-interest income increased $1,100 from $161,800 in
the three months ended  September 30, 1998 to $162,900 in the three months ended
September 30, 1999.  The increase was the result of an increase  $2,900 in other
income, offset by a decrease in income from real estate operations of $1,800.

     Non-interest  Expense.  Non-interest expense decreased from $493,200 in the
three  months  ended  September  30, 1998 to $486,100 in the three  months ended
September  30,  1999.  This  decrease  of $7,100 was  primarily  the result of a
decrease of $15,700 in real estate operation expense and a decrease of $8,700 in
data processing expense, partially offset by an increase of $11,800 for salaries
and benefits and an increase of $4,000 in other non-interest expense.

     Income Tax  Expense.  Income tax expense was  $121,200 for the three months
ended  September  30,  1999  compared  to $102,200  for the three  months  ended
September  30, 1998,  an increase of $19,000,  primarily  due to the increase in
taxable income.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company's primary sources of funds are
deposits,  principal and interest  payments on loans,  FHLB Des Moines advances,
and funds provided by operations.  While  scheduled loan repayments and maturity
of short-term  investments are a relatively predictable source of funds; deposit
flows are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and
competition.  Current  Office  of Thrift  Supervision  regulations  require  the
company to maintain cash and eligible investments in an amount equal to at least
4% of customer accounts and short-term  borrowings to assure its ability to meet
demands for withdrawals and repayment of short-term borrowings.  As of September
30, 1999,  the  Association's  liquidity  ratio was 13.52%,  which  exceeded the
minimum regulatory requirement on such date.

     The Company  uses its  capital  resources  principally  to meet its ongoing
commitments,  to fund maturing  certificates  of deposits and loan  commitments,
maintain its liquidity, and meet its foreseeable short- and long term needs. The
Company expects to be able to fund or refinance, on a timely basis, its material
commitments and long-term liabilities.

     Regulatory   standards  impose  the  following  capital   requirements:   a
risk-based  capital  standard  expressed as a percent of risk adjusted assets, a
leverage ratio of core capital to total adjusted assets,  and a tangible capital
ratio expressed as a percent of total adjusted assets. As of September 30, 1999,
the Association exceeded all fully phased-in regulatory capital requirements.

     At September 30, 1999, the  Association's  tangible equity capital was $7.4
million,  or  8.86%,  of  tangible  assets,  which  is in  excess  of  the  1.5%
requirement by $6.2 million. In addition, at September 30, 1999, the Association
had core capital of $7.4 million,  or 8.86%,  of adjusted  total  assets,  which
exceeds the 3% requirement by $4.9 million. The Association had total risk-based
capital of $7.7  million at  September  30, 1999,  or 14.19%,  of  risk-weighted
assets which exceeds the 8.0% risk-based  capital  requirements by $3.4 million.
The Association  had tier I risk-based  capital of $7.4 million,  or 13.73%,  of
risk-weighted assets which exceeds the 4.0% capital requirement by $4.1 million.

     As  required  by Federal  law,  the OTS has  proposed a rule  revising  its
minimum core capital  requirement  to be no less  stringent than that imposed on
national banks. the OTS has proposed that only those savings  associations rated
a composite  one (the highest  rating) under the MACRO rating system for savings
associations  will be  permitted  to operate at or near the  regulatory  minimum
leverage  ratio of 3%.  all  other  savings  associations  will be  required  to
maintain a minimum  leverage  ratio of 3% plus at least an additional 100 to 200
basis points.  The OTS will assess each individual savings  association  through
the  supervisory  process on a  case-by-case  basis to determine the  applicable
requirement.  No  assurance  can be  given  as to the  final  form  of any  such
regulation,  the date of its effectiveness or the requirement  applicable to the
Association.  As a result of the prompt  corrective action provisions of federal
law discussed below, however, a savings association must maintain a core capital
ratio  of at  least  4% to  be  considered  adequately  capitalized  unless  its
supervisory condition is such to allow it to maintain a 3% ratio.


Regulatory Developments

     As  of  September  30,  1999,  management  is  not  aware  of  any  current
recommendations by regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented,
would have or are  reasonable  likely to have a material  adverse  effect on the
Company's liquidity, capital resources of operations.


Impact of Year 2000

     General.  The year 2000  ("Y2K")  issue  confronting  the  Company  and its
suppliers,  customers,  customers'  suppliers  and  competitors  centers  on the
inability of computer systems to recognize the year 2000. Many existing computer
programs  and  systems  originally  were  programmed  with six digit  dates that
provided only two digits to identify the calendar  year in the date field.  With
the impending new  millennium,  these programs and computers will recognize "00"
as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.

     Financial  institution  regulators recently have increased their focus upon
Y2K compliance issues and have issued guidance  concerning the  responsibilities
of  senior  management  and  directors.   The  Federal  Financial   Institutions
Examination Council ("FFIEC") has issued several  interagency  statements on Y2K
Project Management  Awareness.  These statements require financial  institutions
to,  among other  things,  examine  the Y2K  implications  of their  reliance on
vendors and with respect to data exchange and the

                                     - 13 -

<PAGE>


potential  impact of the Y2K issue on their  customers,  supplies and borrowers.
These statements also require each federally regulated financial  institution to
survey its  exposure,  measure risk and prepare a plan to address the Y2K issue.
In addition,  the federal  banking  regulators  have issued safety and soundness
guidelines  to be  followed  by  insured  depository  institutions,  such as the
Company, to assure resolution of any Y2K problems.  The federal banking agencies
have asserted that Y2K testing and  certification  is a key safety and soundness
issue  in  conjunction   with  regulatory   examinations   and,  thus,  that  an
institution's  failure to address  appropriately  the Y2K issue could  result in
supervisory  action,  including the reduction of the  institution's  supervisory
ratings, the denial of applications for approval of mergers or acquisitions,  or
the imposition of civil money penalties.

     Risk. Like most financial  institutions service providers,  the Company and
its  operations  may be  significantly  affected  by the  Y2K  issue  due to its
dependence on technology and date-sensitive data. Computer software and hardware
and other  equipment,  both within and outside the Company's  direct control and
third parties with whom the Company  electronically or operationally  interfaces
(including  without limitation its customers and third party vendors) are likely
to be  affected.  If computer  systems  are not  modified in order to be able to
identify  the  year  2000,  many  computer  applications  could  fail or  create
erroneous  results.  As a result,  many  calculations  which  rely on date field
information,  such  as  interest,  payment  or due  dates  and  other  operating
functions,  could generate results which are  significantly  misstated,  and the
Company  could  experience  an  inability  to  process   transactions,   prepare
statements or engage in similar  normal  business  activities.  Likewise,  under
certain  circumstances,  a failure to  adequately  address  the Y2K issue  could
adversely effect the viability of the Company's  suppliers and creditors and the
creditworthiness of its borrowers.  Thus, if not adequately  addressed,  the Y2K
issue could result in a significant  adverse impact on the Company's  operations
and, in turn, its financial condition and results of operations.

     State of Readiness.  During November 1997, the Company  formulated its plan
to address the Y2K issue.  Since that time,  the Company has taken the following
steps:

     o    Established senior management advisory and review responsibilities;

     o    Completed  a  Company-wide   inventory  of  applications   and  system
          software;

     o    Completed  renovation  and testing of the  Company's  mission-critical
          systems;

     o    Built  an  internal  tracking  database  for  application  and  vendor
          software;

     o    Developed compliance plans and schedules for all lines of business;

     o    Monitored vendor compliance verification;

     o    Provided  awareness and  education  activities  for employees  through
          existing internal communication channels;

     o    Continued  a process to respond to  customer  inquires as well as help
          educate customers on the Y2K issue.

     o    Completed a detailed contingency plan in the event of interruptions of
          service from our outside vendors and service providers.

The following paragraphs summarize the phases of the Company's Y2K plan:

          Awareness Phase. The Company formally established a Y2K plan headed by
     a senior  manager,  and a project team was assembled for  management of the
     Y2K  project.  The  project  team  created a plan of action  that  includes
     milestones,  budget estimates,  strategies,  and methodologies to track and
     report the status of the project. Members of the project team also attended
     conferences and information  sharing sessions to gain more insight into the
     Y2K issue  and  potential  strategies  for  addressing  it.  This  phase is
     complete.

          Assessment Phase. The Company's strategies were further developed with
     respect to how the  objectives of the Y2K plan would be achieved,  and aY2K
     business risk  assessment  was made to quantify the extent of the Company's
     Y2K exposure.  A corporate inventory (which is periodically  updated as new
     technology is acquired and as systems progress through  subsequent  phases)
     was developed to identify and monitor Y2K readiness for information systems
     (hardware,  software,  utilities  and  vendors)  as well  as  environmental
     systems  (security  systems,  facilities,  etc.).  Systems were prioritized
     based on  business  impact and  available  alternatives.  Mission  critical
     systems supplied by vendors were researched to determine Y2K readiness.  If
     Y2K-ready  versions  were not  available,  the  Company  began  identifying
     functional   replacements,   which  were  either  upgradable  or  currently
     Y2K-ready,  and a formal plan was  developed to repair,  upgrade or replace
     all mission critical systems. This phase is complete.

          The Company also contacted its most  significant  borrowers  informing
     them of the Y2K issue.  Because the Company's  loan  portfolio is primarily
     real  estate-based and is diversified  with regard to individual  borrowers
     and types of  businesses,  and the  Company's  primary  market  area is not
     significantly  dependent on one employer or industry,  the Company does not
     expect any  significant  or prolonged  Y2K-related  difficulties  that will
     affect net earnings or cash flow.  As part of the current  credit  approval
     process, all new and renewed loans are evaluated for Y2K risk.

          Renovation Phase. The Company's  corporate inventory revealed that Y2K
     upgrades were available for all vendor supplied mission  critical  systems,
     and all these  Y2K-ready  versions  have been  delivered  and  placed  into
     production and have entered the validation process.

          Validation Phase. The validation phase is designed to test the ability
     of hardware and software to accurately  process date  sensitive  data.  The
     Company has  completed  the  validation  testing of each  mission  critical
     system.  During the validation testing process, no significant Y2K problems
     were  identified  relating to any  modified  or  upgraded  mission-critical
     systems.

          Implementation  Phase. The Company's plan calls for putting  Y2K-ready
     code into  production  before  having  actually  completed  Y2K  validation
     testing.  Y2K-ready  modified or upgraded  versions have been installed and
     placed into production with respect to all mission-critical systems.

          Company  Resources  Invested.  The  Company's  Y2K  project  team  has
     completed  the task of  ensuring  that all  systems  across the Company are
     identified, analyzed for Y2K compliance, corrected, if

                                     - 15-

<PAGE>


     necessary,  tested,  and changes  put into  service.  The Y2K project  team
     members represent all functional areas of the Company,  including branches,
     data  processing,  loan  administration,  accounting,  item  processing and
     operations, compliance, internal audit, human resources, and marketing. The
     team is headed by a vice president who reports  directly to a member of the
     Company's senior management team. The Company's board of Directors oversees
     the Y2K plan and provides guidance and resources to, and received quarterly
     updates from, the Y2K project team.

          The Company  expenses all costs  associated  with the required  system
     changes  as those  costs are  incurred,  and such  costs  are being  funded
     through  operating cash flows.  The Company does not  anticipate  incurring
     significant additional expense to implement additional corrective actions.

          Contingency  Plans.  During the assessment phase, the Company began to
     develop back-up contingency plans for each of its mission-critical systems.
     Virtually all of the Company's  mission-critical systems are dependent upon
     third party vendors or service providers. These vendors have been monitored
     and all have  provided  evidence  of their  efforts to comply  with the Y2K
     problem.  All that we consider as our primary  providers  have  appeared to
     have  resolved any Y2K problems  that they may have had, with the exception
     of some of the public utilities,  which have issued statements periodically
     through the local press.  As a backup plan to the possibility of electrical
     service being  interrupted,  the Company has made  arrangements  to have an
     electrical  generator  on site  large  enough to  totally  power one of the
     branch  offices.  All other venders and suppliers  that we consider part of
     our mission-critical systems have provided statements of assurance and have
     shown due  diligence  as to their own  readiness.  The Company has also put
     into place provisions to have additional  currency  available and will have
     limitations  on  withdrawals  in the event of  aggressive  pressures on the
     Company's cash on hand.
