                          (Unaudited)


Note 1 -- Business.  The accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Harbor Federal
Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and wholly-owned subsidiaries,
including Harbor Federal Savings Bank ("Harbor Federal").  Harbor
Federal provides a full range of banking services to individual
and corporate customers through its subsidiaries and branch
banks in Maryland.  Harbor Federal is subject to competition
from other financial institutions.  Harbor Federal is subject to
the regulations of certain federal agencies and undergoes
periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

Note 2 -- Basis of Presentation.  The accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance
with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include
information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation
of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. 
However, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary
for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements
at and for the nine and three months ended December 31, 1997
have been recorded.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statement of
financial condition and revenues and expenses for the period. 
The results of operations for the nine and three months ended
December 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the entire year ending March 31, 1998. 
Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Note 3 -- Principles of Consolidation.  The accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and Harbor Federal, and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, Harbor Service Corporation and Bank Street
Mortgage, Inc..  All significant intercompany items have been
eliminated.

Note 4 -- Retained Income.  Harbor Federal is required to
maintain certain levels of regulatory capital.  At December 31,
1997, Harbor Federal was in compliance with all regulatory
capital requirements.  In addition to these requirements, Harbor
Federal must maintain sufficient capital for the "liquidation
account" for the benefit of eligible account holders.  In the
event of a complete liquidation of Harbor Federal, eligible
depositors would have an interest in the account.

Note 5 -- Earnings per Common Share.  The Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per
Share," during the three months ended December 31, 1997. 
Statement No. 128 establishes revised standards for computing
and presenting earnings per share (EPS) data.  It requires dual
presentation of "basic" and "diluted" EPS on the face of the
statements of income and reconciliation of the numerators and
denominators used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations.  As
required by Statement No. 128, EPS data for prior periods
presented have been restated to conform to the new standard.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the applicable
period.  Diluted EPS is calculated after adjusting the numerator
and the denominator of the basic EPS calcuation for the effect
of  all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the
period.  Information related to the calculation of earnings per
share of common stock is summarized as follows:

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

     The following discussion analyzes the financial condition
of the Company at December 31, 1997 and the results of
operations of the Company for the nine and three months ended
December 31, 1997 and 1996.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

     Harbor Federal's total assets increased by $14.1 million or
6.4% to $233.6 million at December 31, 1997 from $219.5 million
at March 31, 1997.

     Investment securities increased by $3.0 million or 6.4% to
$50.6 milluion at December 31, 1997 from $47.5 million at March
31, 1997.  Mortgage-backed securities increased by $8.0 million
or 56.8% to $22.2 million at December 31, 1997 from $14.2
million at March 31, 1997.  Loans receivable, net increased by
$3.4 million or 2.3% to $148.1 million at December 31, 1997 from
$144.7 million at March 31, 1997.  These increases were funded
by increase in savings deposits of $5.2 million or 3.0% to
$176.7 million at December 31, 1997 from $171.5 million at March
31, 1997 and increase in borrowed funds of $8.6 million or 52.1%
to $25.1 million at December 31, 1997 from $16.5 million at
March 31, 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

     The earnings of Harbor Federal depend primarily on its
level of net interest income, which is the difference between
interest earned on Harbor Federal's interest-earning assets,
consisting primarily of mortgage loans, mortgage-backed
securities, interest-bearing deposits at other institutions,
investment securities and other investments, and the interest
paid on interest-bearing liabilities consisting primarily of
savings accounts.  Net income for the nine and three months
ended December 31, 1997 increased $726,000  and $86,000
respectively.

     The increase for the nine months was primarily due to a
reduction in the SAIF deposit insurance premiums.  A one time
assessment for recapitalization of the SAIF was recorded during
the nine months ended December 31, 1996.  This one time
assessment amounted to $806,000 and reduced after tax earnings
by $495,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1996.

     Interest Income.  Total interest income for the nine months
ended December 31, 1997 increased by $740,000 or 6.5% to $12.1
million from $11.4 million for the same period in 1996.  Total
interest income for the three months ended December 31, 1997
increased by $105,000 or 2.6% to $4.1 million from $4.0 million
for the same period in 1996.  The increases in interest income
resulted from increases of $12.0 million or 5.9% and $5.3
million or 2.5% in average interest-earning assets for the nine
and three months ended December 31, 1997 as compared to the same
periods in 1996 and from an increase in the average yield on
Harbor Federal's average interest-earning assets to 7.54% and
7.55% for the nine  and three months ended December 31, 1997
from 7.50% and 7.54% for the nine and three months ended
December 31, 1996.

     Interest on loans for the nine months ended December 31,
1997 increased $1.1 million or 14.5% as compared to the same
period in 1996.  Interest on loans for the three months ended
December 31, 1997 increased $202,000 or 7.4% as compared to the
same period in 1996.  The increases were due primarily to
increases in average loans receivable of $18.3 million or 14.1%
and $11.4 million or 8.2% for the nine and three months ended
December 31, 1997, respectively, as compared to the same periods
in 1996.

     Interest on mortgage-backed securities for the nine and
three months ended December 31,1997 decreased by $200,000 or
21.3% and $45,000 or 15.2% respectively, as compared to the same
periods in 1996.  The decreases were the result of decreases in
the average mortgage-backed securities of $3.4 million or 19.5%
and $1.8 million or 10.9% for the nine and three months ended
December 31, 1997, respectively, as compared to the same periods
in 1996.  The decreases in average mortgage-backed securities
were due to normal repayments.  In December 1997 Harbor Federal
purchased a $9.9 million GNMA II package which will impact
future periods.  This purchase was funded by borrowings with a
favorable rate spread of over 200 basis points.

     Interest on investment securities for the nine and three
months ended December 31, 1997 decreased by $177,000 or 6.9% and
$62,000 or 7.3%, respectively, as compared to the same periods
in 1996.  The decreases were due primarily to decreases in the
average investment securities of $3.8 million or 7.6% and $4.0
million or 8.2% for the nine and three months ended December 31,
1997, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1996. 
The decreases in average investment securities were due to
maturities of several investment securities.  In December 1997
Harbor Federal purchased $11.0 million in United States
Government Agencies obligations which will impact future
periods.  These investments were partially funded by borrowings
with a favorable rate spread of over 140 basis points.

     Interest Expense.  Total interest expense for the nine and
three months ended December 31, 1997 increased by $316,000 or
4.5% and $42,000 or 1.7% to $7.3 million and $2.5 million from
$7.0 million and $2.4 million for the same periods in 1996.  The
increases were primarily attributable to increases in the
weighted average balance of deposits and borrowings for the nine
and three months ended December 31 1997 of $11.4 million or 6.5%
and $5.3 million or 2.9%, respectively, over the same periods in
1996.  The effects of the increases were partially offset by a
reduction in the weighted average cost of Harbor Federal's
deposits and borrowings to 5.17% and 5.24%, respectively, for
the nine and three months ended December 31,1997 from 5.26% and
5.30%, respectively, for the same periods in 1996.

     Net Interest Income.  Net interest income for the nine and
three months ended December 31, 1997 increased by $424,000 or
9.6% and $63,000 or 4.2% to $4.8 million and $1.6 million from
$4.4 million and $1.5 million for the same periods in 1996.  The
principal reason for the increases in net interest income was an
increase in Harbor Federal's net interest margin to 3.01% for
the nine months ended December 31. 1997 from 2.91% for the nine
months ended December 31, 1996.

     Provision for Loan Losses.  The Company maintains an
allowance for loan losses based on management's review and
classification of the loan portfolio and analyses of borrowers'
ability to pay, past collection experience, risk characteristics
of individual loans or groups of similar loans and underlying
collateral, current and prospective economic conditions, status
of non-performing loans and regulatory reviews conducted in the
regulatory examination process. Provisions of $80,000 and
$40,000 were made for loan losses during the nine and three
months ended December 31, 1997 as compared to $32,600 and none
during the same periods in 1996.  Based on the results of
managements' review and analyses, it was concluded that the
level of the allowance for losses on loans was adequate at
December 31, 1997.

     Noninterest Income.  Noninterest income for the nine and
three months ended December 31, 1997 increased by $161,000 or
85.3% and $150,000 or 354.7% to $349,000 and $192,000 from
$189,000 and $42,000 for the same periods in 1996.  The increase
for the nine and three months ended December 31, 1997 was due
primarily to an increase in loan fees and gain on sale of loans
originated for sale.

     The loan fees were received primarily from the Company's
mortgage subsidiary, Bank Street Mortgage, Inc. that began
operations in June 1997.  These loan fees amounted to $79,400
and $42,200 for the nine and three months ended December 31,
1997.  In December 1997, Harbor Federal sold $4.8 million in
mortgage loans originated for sale which produced a $96,400 gain
on sale.  These increases were partially offset by a $14,300
reduction in ATM fees.  This reduction was due to the closing of
Harbor Federal's ATM facility in Ocean City, Maryland in October
1997.
 
     Noninterest Expense.  Noninterest expense for the nine
months ended December 31, 1997 decreased by $646,000 or 17.3% to
$3.1 million from $3.7 million for the same period in 1996.  As
mentioned above in the results of operations the reduction was
due primarily to the one time SAIF assessment in the prior year. 
This 
                             12<PAGE>
<PAGE>
reduction was partially offset by an increase in compensation
and benefits due primarily to costs relating to Bank Street
Mortgage, Inc..  Noninterest expense for the three months ended
December 31, 1997 increased by $32,000 or 3.1% to $1.06 million
from $1.03 million for the same period in 1996.  This increase
was primarily due to increase in compensation and benefits as
mentioned in the nine month results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

     Harbor Federal is required to maintain minimum levels of
liquid assets as defined by OTS regulations.  This requirement,
which varies from time to time depending upon economic
conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a percentage of
deposits and short-term borrowings.  The required ratio
currently is 4.0%.  Harbor Federal's liquidity ratio averaged
7.12% and 7.51% for the nine and  three months ended December
31, 1997.  Harbor Federal adjusts its liquidity levels in order
to meet funding needs of deposit outflows, payment of real
estate taxes on mortgage loans, repayment of borrowings and loan
commitments.  Harbor Federal also adjusts liquidity as
appropriate to meet its asset and liability management
objectives.

     The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits,
amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed
securities, maturities of investment securities and other
investments and earnings and funds provided from operations and
borrowings.  While scheduled principal repayments on loans and
mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source
of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly
influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and
competition.  The Company manages the pricing of its deposits to
maintain a desired deposit balance.  In addition, the Company
invests in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide
liquidity to meet lending requirements.

     During the nine months ended December 31, 1997, Harbor
Federal's cash and cash equivalents (cash and short-term
investments with maturities less than 90 days) increased by
$591,000.

     The Company had $639,000 in outstanding loan commitments at
December 31, 1997.  Harbor Federal expects to fund its loan
originations through principal and interest payments on loans
and mortgage-backed securities, proceeds from investment and
other securities as maturities occur, and to the extent
necessary, borrowed funds.  Management expects that funds
provided from these sources will be adequate to meet the
Company's needs.
