                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Plan Administrator
Home Federal Savings Bank
 Employees' Savings & Profit Sharing Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the Home Federal Savings Bank Employees' Savings and Profit Sharing
Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental
schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The fund information
in the statements of net asset available for benefits and the statements of
changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for
benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. The
supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                        Notes to Financial Statements
                         December 31, 1998 and 1997

(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
     basis of accounting.

     CUSTODIAN OF INVESTMENTS
     Bank of New York is the trustee and custodian of all Plan assets.

     PLAN ADMINISTRATION
     Home Federal Savings Bank (the Company) is the administrator of the Plan
     and Pentegra Services, Inc. performs the participant accounting.

     VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
     Investments are stated at their fair market value.  Investments in
     mutual funds or commingled trusts are valued using daily net asset value
     calculations performed by the funds and published by the National
     Association of Securities Dealers.  Investments in common stock are
     valued at the quoted market price.  Participant notes are valued at cost
     which approximates fair value.

     Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis.
     Net realized gains or losses are recognized by the Plan upon the sale of
     its investments or portions thereof based on average cost.

     COSTS AND EXPENSES
     Asset management fees ranging between 38 and 85 basis points are
     assessed annually on average net asset values and are deducted from the
     individual funds.  In addition, the Company paid participant accounting
     fees totaling $5,427 and $5,100 in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

(2)  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

     The following description of the Plan provides only general information.
     Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description for more
     complete information.

     GENERAL
     The Plan is a defined contribution plan, qualified under section 401(a)
     of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan includes 401(k) provisions which
     allow participants to direct the Company to contribute a portion of
     their compensation to the Plan on a pretax basis through payroll
     deductions.  The Plan is subject to the Employee Retirement Income
     Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

     Company employees who have attained the age of 21 are eligible to
     participate in the Plan if during the one month period following the
     date of employment (or any anniversary thereof) the employee completes
     83 1/3 or more hours of service.

                                  10
<PAGE>

     FUNDING POLICY
     Participants have had the ability to contribute up to 12% of their
     monthly compensation on a pretax basis to the Plan.  Participant
     contributions are subject to the Internal Revenue Service maximum annual
     limits of $10,000 and $9,500 during 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The
     Company matches 25% of each participant's contribution not in excess of
     8% of the participant's annual salary.

     The Company may, in its sole discretion, contribute to the Plan an
     amount to be determined from year to year (the Non-Elective
     Contribution).  Such contributions would be allocated to the accounts of
     participants in the ratio that each participant's compensation for the
     plan year bears to the total compensation of all participants for the
     plan year.  There were no such contributions during 1998 or 1997.

     PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
     Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
     contribution and allocations of the Company's contribution and Plan
     earnings.  Allocations are based on participant contributions or account
     balances, as defined.

     VESTING
     Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the
     actual earnings thereon. Participants must be employed on December 31 of
     the plan year to be entitled to the Company's match for the year.
     Employees hired prior to January 1, 1997 are immediately vested in the
     employer contributions at December 31 of the plan year. Employees hired
     January 1, 1997 and thereafter are subject to 5 year cliff vesting for
     the employer matching contribution. Forfeited amounts for 1998 totaled
     $8,882, and are used to reduce future employer match obligations.
     Employer match amounts not vested at December 31, 1998 totaled $17,010.

     PARTICIPANT LOANS
     Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up
     to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their
     vested account balance.  Loan terms range from 1-5 years, except loans
     used to purchase a primary residence may have a term up to 15 years.
     All loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and
     bear interest at a rate equal to the prime rate plus 1%. Principal and
     interest payments must be made monthly.

     DISTRIBUTIONS
     Upon termination of employment for any reason the participant's account
     balance becomes fully payable.

     PARTICIPATING EMPLOYERS
     The Company is a member of a controlled group of corporations as defined
     in Section 414(b) of the Internal Revenue Code.  No members of the group
     other than the Company participated in the Plan prior to 1996. Employees
     of HMN Mortgage Services, Inc. began participating in 1998. The
     contributions to the Plan for each employer participating in the Plan
     during 1998 and 1997 were as follows:

(7)  INCOME TAX STATUS

   The Internal Revenue Service determined and informed the Company by a
   letter dated May 11, 1994, that the Plan and related trust, as then
   designed, were in compliance with the provisions of 401(a) of the
   Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and were thereby exempt from federal income
   taxes under Section 501(a) of the code.  The Plan has been amended in its
   entirety since receiving the determination letter.  However, the Plan
   administrator and the third party administrator believe that the Plan is
   designed and is being operated in compliance with the applicable
   requirements of the IRC.  Therefore, no provision for income taxes has
   been included in the Plan's financial statements.

                                       12
<PAGE>

   An employee's pretax contributions under the Plan will reduce the
   participant's taxable income for federal and state income tax purposes.
   Each participant's portion of earnings from investments made with
   contributions under the Plan, generally, are not taxable until
   distributed or withdrawn.

(8)  PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS

   The Plan engages in investment transactions involving the acquisition or
   disposition of HMN Financial, Inc. common stock.  HMN Financial, Inc. is
   the holding company of Home Federal Savings Bank and is a party-in-
   interest.  These transactions are covered by an exemption from the
   "prohibited transactions" provisions of ERISA and the IRC.
