     SPRING VALLEY, MINNESOTA, July 18, 1996 . . . HMN Financial, Inc.
(HMN) (NASDAQ:HMNF), the $555 million holding company for Home Federal
Savings Bank (the Bank), today reported net income of $1.5 million for the
second quarter of 1996, up 9% from $1.4 million for the second quarter of
1995.  Earnings per share were $0.34 for the second quarter of 1996, up
26% from $0.27 per share for the second quarter of 1995.  Return on
average assets was 1.13% and return on average equity was 6.77% for the
second quarter of 1996, an increase of 6% and 16%, respectively, from the
second quarter of 1995.  Book value per share was $17.73, up 8%, from
$16.38 for the second quarter of 1995.  Net income for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 was $3.1 million, up 13% from $2.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1995.  Earnings per share were $0.67 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996, up 29% from $0.52 per share for the same
period in 1995.  Return on average assets was 1.15% and return on average
equity was 6.84% for the six months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of 7%
and 20%, respectively, from the same period in 1995.

     HMN Financial, Inc.'s Chairman, Roger P. Weise, said that he was
pleased with the increased earnings per share for both the quarter and the
six month period ended June 30, 1996.  The increased earnings per share is 
primarily due to an increase in earnings coupled with the repurchase of 
HMN's own common stock from the open market.

     Net income for the second quarter of 1996 compared to the second
quarter of 1995 increased by $128,000, or 9.1%, principally due to an
increase of $274,000 in net security gains which was partially offset by
an increase of $121,000 in compensation and benefit expenses.   Net income
for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period
of 1995 increased by $351,000, or 12.7%, principally due to an increase of
$781,000 in net security gains which was partially offset by an increase
of $267,000 in compensation and benefit expenses.

     Net interest income was $4.0 million for both the second quarter of
1996 and the second quarter of 1995.  Net interest income for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 was $7.91 million, a decrease of $56,000, or
0.7%, from $7.97 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995.   HMN has
been purchasing its own stock in the open market at an average price that
is less than its current book value.  The balance sheet impact of the
stock repurchase program has been to reduce equity and replace it with
additional advances or deposit growth.  As HMN has increased in total
assets its average interest-earning assets have increased at a slower pace
than its average outstanding interest-bearing liabilities.  Therefore,
interest expense has increased at a more rapid pace than interest income. 
The more rapid increase in liabilities coupled with changing interest
rates caused net interest income for the second quarter of 1996 to be the
same as the second quarter of 1995.  It was also the principal cause for
the decrease in net interest income when comparing the six months ended
June 30, 1996 to the same period of 1995.      

     Non-interest income was $485,000 for the second quarter of 1996, an
increase of $304,000, or 168%, compared to $181,000 for the second quarter
of 1995.  The increase was principally due to a $274,000 increase in gain
on the sale of securities, a $104,000 increase in other income and was
partially offset by a $76,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans.  Non-
interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $1.2 million,
an increase of $901,000, or 316%, compared to $285,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1995.  The increase was principally due to a $781,000
increase in gain on the sale of securities, a $184,000 increase in other
income and was partially offset by a $70,000 decrease in gain on sale of
loans. 

     Non-interest expense was $1.98 million for the second quarter of
1996, an increase of $147,000, or 8%, from $1.84 million for the second
quarter of 1995.  The majority of the increase in non-interest expense
between the two quarters was due to a $121,000, or 12.4%, increase in
compensation and benefits and was the result of adding new employees,
normal merit and salary increases and the impact of the Recognition and
Retention Plan adopted in June of 1995.  Non-interest expense for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 was $3.967 million, an increase of $318,000, or
8.7%, from $3.649 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  The
principal cause for the increase in non-interest expense between the two
periods was due to a $267,000, or 13.8%, increase in compensation and
benefits expense and was the result of adding new employees, normal merit
and salary increases and the impact of the Recognition and Retention Plan
adopted in June of 1995. 

     During July of 1996, HMN completed the purchase of 246,060 shares of
its own stock in the open market.

     HMN Financial, Inc. and Home Federal Savings Bank are headquartered
in Spring Valley, MN.  The Bank operates seven offices in southern
