ITEM 2.             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                    CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

Horizon Financial Services Corporation ("the Company") is a savings bank holding
company,  the primary  asset of which is Horizon  Federal  Savings  Bank,  ("the
Bank").  The Company was  incorporated  in March 1994 and sold 506,017 shares of
common  stock on June 28, 1994 for the purpose of  acquiring  all of the capital
stock of the Bank in connection with the Bank's  conversion from mutual to stock
form of ownership (the "Conversion").

The principal  business of the Company  (through its operating  subsidiary,  the
Bank), has historically consisted of attracting deposits from the general public
and  making  loans  secured  by  residential  and,  to a  lesser  extent,  other
properties.  The Company's results of operations are primarily  dependent on the
difference  or spread  ("interest  rate  spread")  between the average  yield on
loans,  mortgage-backed  and related  securities and investments and the average
rate paid on deposits and other  borrowings  as well as the relative  amounts of
such assets and liabilities. The interest rate spread is affected by regulatory,
economic and competitive  factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and
deposit  flows.  The Company,  like other  non-diversified  savings  institution
holding  companies,  is subject  to  interest  rate risk to the degree  that its
interest-earning  assets mature or reprice at different times, or on a different
basis, than its interest-bearing liabilities.

The Company's  results of  operations  are also affected by, among other things,
fee  income  received,  loss or profit on  securities  available  for sale,  the
establishment  of  provisions  for  possible  loan losses,  income  derived from
subsidiary  activities,  the level of operating  expenses and income taxes.  The
Company's operating expenses  principally  consist of employee  compensation and
benefits,   occupancy  expenses,   federal  deposit  insurance  premiums,   data
processing expenses and other general and administrative expenses.

The  Company  is  significantly   affected  by  prevailing  economic  conditions
including  federal  monetary  and fiscal  policies  and  federal  regulation  of
financial  institutions.  Deposit balances are influenced by a number of factors
including interest rates paid on competing personal investments and the level of
personal  income and  savings  within the  institution's  market  area.  Lending
activities are influenced by the demand for housing as well as competition  from
other lending institutions.  The primary sources of funds for lending activities
include deposits, loan payments, borrowings and funds provided from operations.

Some local  economic  conditions  in the Bank's market have  weakened.  The farm
economy had been strong but has now softened.  As a result of an  over-supply of
grain, farm prices for grain and livestock,  which are currently depressed,  may
continue  to  remain  depressed.  In  the  event  current  economic  and  market
conditions persist or worsen, loan demand and existing loans may be affected. No
assurances  can be given that the Bank will be able to maintain or increase  the
balance or quality  of its loan  portfolio,  which  could  adversely  affect the
financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Bank.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company's total assets at December 31, 1999 of $82.0 million  decreased $3.0
million,  or  3.51%,  from  $85.0  million  at June  30,  1999.  Cash  and  cash
equivalents  decreased  $4.0  million , or  50.90%,  due to  repayments  made on
Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  advances.  Securities  available  for sale  decreased
$820,000  primarily as a result of principal  payments  and  prepayments  on the
securities.  Partially  offsetting  this  decrease  was  an  increase  in  loans
receivable, net of $2.0 million.
<PAGE>
Total liabilities decreased $3.1 million, or 3.97%, to $73.9 million at December
31, 1999 from $77.0 million at June 30, 1999,  primarily as a result of advances
from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreasing $4.0 million,  or 24.36%,  from $16.6
million  at June 30,  1999 to $12.6  million  at  December  31,  1999.  Deposits
increased  $1.3  million,  or 2.23% to $60.9  million at December  31, 1999 from
$59.6 million at June 30, 1999. There were no other  significant  changes in the
components of the Company's balance sheet.

                                       -8-

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The  Company's  results of operations  depend  primarily on the level of its net
interest  income  and  non-  interest  income  and the  level  of its  operating
expenses. Net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets
and  interest-bearing  liabilities  and  interest  rates  earned or paid on such
assets or liabilities,  respectively. The Company's non-interest income consists
primarily of fees charged on transaction accounts which help to offset the costs
associated with establishing and maintaining these accounts.

Comparison  of three month and six month  periods  ended  December  31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998.

GENERAL

Net earnings for the three months ended December 31, 1999 increased  $198,000 to
$147,000 from  ($51,000) for the three month period ended December 31, 1998. For
the six months  ended  December 31, 1999,  net  earnings  increased  $845,000 to
$153,000 from ($692,000) for the comparable period in 1998. The increase for the
three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same periods
ended December 31, 1998 was primarily  attributable to a significant decrease in
losses on sales of securities.

INTEREST INCOME

Interest income decreased $31,000 to $1,527,000 for the three month period ended
December  31, 1999  compared to  $1,558,000  for the three  month  period  ended
December  31, 1998 and  $133,000 to  $3,076,000  for the six month  period ended
December  31, 1999  compared  to  $3,209,000  for the  comparable  period  ended
December  31,  1998.  The  decrease  was due to a decrease in average  interest-
earning assets,  consisting primarily of mortgage loans and securities available
for sale, of  approximately  $2.8 million and $3.6 million for the three and six
months ended December 31, 1999,  respectively,  over the  comparable  periods in
1998 and a decrease in the weighted  average  yield on average  interest-earning
assets to 7.80% for the six months  ended  December  31, 1999 from 7.86% for the
same period in 1998. The decrease in average  interest  earning assets is due to
managements  decision,  at the  current  time,  not to invest in  lower-yielding
mortgage-backed securities with leveraged FHLB advances.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense decreased $63,000 to $857,000 from $920,000 for the three month
period and decreased  $161,000 to $1,719,000  from  $1,880,000 for the six month
period  ended  December  31, 1999 as compared to the same  periods in 1998.  The
decrease in interest  expense was primarily due to the weighted average yield on
interest-bearing  liabilities decreasing by 28 basis points to 4.57% at December
31,  1999 as  compared  to  4.85%  for the same  period  in  1998.  The  average
outstanding  balance  of average  interest-bearing  liabilities  decreased  $2.5
million from $77.7 million at December 31, 1998 to $75.2 million at December 31,
1999.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net  interest  income was $670,000 and $1.3 million for the three months and six
months  ended  December 31,  1999,  respectively,  compared to $639,000 and $1.3
million for the comparable  periods in 1998.  The Company's net interest  margin
increased 22 basis  points to 3.23% for the six month period ended  December 31,
1999 as compared to 3.01% for the same period in 1998.

PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS

The provision for losses on loans is a result of management's  periodic analysis
of the adequacy of the Company's  allowance  for losses on loans.  The Company's
provision  for  losses on loans was  $48,000  for the six  month  periods  ended
December  31,  1999  and  1998.   As  of  December  31,  1999,   the   Company's
non-performing assets, consisting of nonaccrual loans, accruing loans 90 days or
more delinquent,  real estate owned and repossessed  consumer property,  totaled
$774,000  or .94% of total  assets,  compared  to  $1,160,000  or 1.36% of total
assets as of June 30, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, the Company's allowance for
losses on loans was $381,000,  representing  49.2% of non-performing  assets and
 .66% of net loans receivable.

The Company continues to monitor and adjust its allowance for losses on loans as
management's analysis of its loan portfolio and economic conditions dictate. The
Company  believes it has taken an appropriate  approach  toward reserve  levels,
consistent  with the Company's loss  experiences  and  considering,  among other
factors,  the  composition  of the Company's  loan  portfolio,  the level of the
Company's classified and non-performing assets and their estimated value. Future
additions to the  Company's  allowance for losses on loans and any change in the
related ratio of the allowance for losses on loans to  non-performing  loans are
dependent  upon the economy,  changes in real estate values and interest  rates.
Because the Company has  historically  experienced  low loan losses,  management
also considers the loss experience of similar  portfolios in comparable  lending
markets.  In addition,  federal regulators may require additional  reserves as a
result of their examination of the Company.  Accordingly, the calculation of the
adequacy of the allowance for losses on loans is not based directly on the level
of  non-performing  assets.  The allowance for losses on loans reflects what the
Company currently believes is an adequate level of reserves,  although there can
be no  assurance  that  future  losses  will not exceed the  estimated  amounts,
thereby adversely affecting future results of operations.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased to $121,000 and $6,000 for the three and six months
ended December  31,1999,  respectively,  compared to ($173,000) and ($1,353,000)
for the same periods ended  December 31, 1998.  The increase for the three month
period ended December 31, 1999 was primarily  attributable to a $8,000 profit on
assets  available for sale  compared to a $296,000 loss on assets  available for
sale  at  December  31,  1998.  For  the  six  month  period  the  increase  was
attributable  to a $225,000  loss on assets  available  for sale at December 31,
1999 as compared to a $1.6 million loss on assets available for sale at December
31, 1998. The loss recognized on securities during the six month period ended in
1998  was  the  result  of  a  $1.5   million   write  down  on  interest   only
mortgage-backed  securities  resulting  from a decline  in fair  value  that was
judged  to be  other  than  temporary.  The  Company  completed  the sale of its
remaining high interest rate sensitive, interest only mortgage-backed securities
during the period ended September 30, 1999.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Total  noninterest  expense was  $556,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six
months  ended  December 31,  1999,  respectively,  compared to $523,000 and $1.0
million  for the same  periods in 1998,  reflecting  increases  of  $33,000  and
$70,000, respectively. Other expense increased $28,000 and $47,000 for the three
and six month periods  ended  December 31, 1999,  respectively,  compared to the
same  period  during  1998 due to  increased  postage,  legal  fees  and  office
supplies.  Advertising expense increased $16,000 and $29,000 and office property
and equipment  increased  $8,000 and $11,000 for the three and six month periods
ended December 31, 1999, respectively,  compared to the same period during 1998.
Compensation  and  employee   benefits   expenses,   the  largest  component  of
noninterest  expense,  decreased $23,000 and $38,000 for the three and six month
periods  ended  December  31,  1999,  respectively,  compared to the same period
during 1998.

                                      -10-

TAXES ON INCOME

Income taxes increased  $95,000 and $472,000 for the three and six month periods
ended December 31, 1999, respectively, primarily as a result of the increases in
net earnings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's principal sources of funds are deposits and principal and interest
payments collected on mortgage loans, investments and related securities.  While
scheduled loan repayments and maturing  investments are relatively  predictable,
deposit flows and early loan  prepayments are more influenced by interest rates,
general  economic  conditions  and  competition.  Additionally,  the Company may
borrow funds from the Federal  Home Loan Bank  ("FHLB") of Des Moines or utilize
other borrowings of funds based on need,  comparative  costs and availability at
the time.

The Office of Thrift  Supervision  (the "OTS") requires minimum levels of liquid
assets. OTS regulations  presently require the Bank to maintain an average daily
balance of liquid assets (United States  Treasury and federal agency  securities
and other investments having maturities of five years of less) equal to at least
4.0%  of the  sum of its  average  daily  balance  of net  withdrawable  deposit
accounts and borrowings  payable in one year or less. Such  requirements  may be
changed from time to time by the OTS to reflect  changing  economic  conditions.
Such  investments  are intended to provide a source of  relatively  liquid funds
upon which the Bank may rely,  if  necessary,  to fund deposit  withdrawals  and
other  short-term  funding  needs.  The Bank  has  historically  maintained  its
liquidity ratio in excess of that  requirement.  The Bank's  liquidity ratio was
8.86% on December 31, 1999 and 11.49% on June 30, 1999.

At December 31, 1999, the Company had advances of $12.6 million from the FHLB of
Des Moines outstanding.  The Company uses its liquidity resources principally to
meet ongoing commitments,  to fund maturing  certificates of deposit and deposit
withdrawals,  and to meet operating  expenses.  The Company  anticipates that it
will have  sufficient  funds  available  to meet current  loan  commitments.  At
December 31, 1999,  the Company had  outstanding  commitments  to extend  credit
which  amounted  to  $2,788,000   (including  $961,000  in  available  revolving
commercial  lines of credit).  At December  31,  1999,  certificates  of deposit
scheduled  to  mature  in one year or less  totaled  $18.7  million.  Management
believes,  based on its experience to date, that a significant  portion of these
funds will remain with the Company. Management believes that loan repayments and
other  sources  of funds  will be  adequate  to meet the  Company's  foreseeable
liquidity needs.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term responsibility of management.
The Bank  adjusts  its  investments  in liquid  assets  based upon  management's
assessment  of (i) expected  loan demand,  (ii) expected  deposit  flows,  (iii)
yields available on interest-bearing  investments and (iv) the objectives of its
asset/liability  management  program.  Excess liquidity generally is invested in
interest-earning  overnight deposits and other short-term  government and agency
obligations.

At December 31, 1999, the Bank had tangible and core capital of $6.0 million, or
7.4% of adjusted  total assets,  which was  approximately  $4.8 million and $2.8
million above the minimum  requirements of 1.5% and 4.0%,  respectively,  of the
adjusted total assets in effect on that date. At December 31, 1999, the Bank had
risk-based capital of $6.3 million (including $6.0 million in core capital),  or
13.2% of risk- weighted  assets of $48.0  million.  This amount was $2.5 million
above the 8.0% requirement in effect on that date.

YEAR 2000

Management  and the Board of Directors  were  committed to achieving the goal of
Y2K  readiness.  The Bank incurred no problems when the staff tested all systems
on January 1, 2000 and has experienced no Y2K problems with our mission critical
systems or our  non-information  system providers.  The company will continue to
monitor Y2K continuity progress and will address any problems should they occur.
The Company has expended all costs  associated  with year 2000  required  system
changes as those costs are  incurred,  and such costs are being  funded  through
operating  cash  flows.  The  total   out-of-pocket   costs  associated  withY2K
compliance  is  estimated  to be $10,000.  As of December  31,  1999, a total of
$1,100  had  been  expended  on the Y2K  issue.  The  Company  does  not  expect
significant  increases in future data processing costs or other expenses related
to its Y2K compliance.
