                         Notes to Financial Statements


Note A -  Basis of Presentation
          ---------------------

          The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
          prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-QSB and,
          therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for fair
          presentation of financial condition, results of operations and changes
          in financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting
          principles. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments
          (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary for a fair
          presentation have been included. The preparation of financial
          statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
          requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
          reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
          contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
          statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
          the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
          estimates. The results of operations for the three and six month
          periods ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of
          the results which may be expected for the entire year.

Note B -  Principles of Consolidation
          ---------------------------

          The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include
          the accounts of West Town Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly
          owned subsidiary West Town Savings Bank (the "Bank") and the Bank's
          wholly owned subsidiary West Town Insurance Agency, Inc. All
          significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
          eliminated in consolidation.

Note C -  Plan of Conversion
          ------------------

          In April 1995, the Bank's Board of Directors approved a Plan of
          Conversion, providing for the Bank's conversion from a state chartered
          mutual savings bank to a state chartered stock savings bank with the
          concurrent formation of a holding company. The Company issued 221,940
          shares of $.01 par value common stock at $10.00 per share, for an
          aggregate purchase price of $2,219,400. The Conversion and sale of
          221,940 shares of common stock of the Company was completed on March
          1, 1995. Net proceeds to the Company, after conversion expenses,
          totaled approximately $1,889,000.

Note D -  Earnings Per Share
          ------------------

          Earnings per share for the periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
          was determined by dividing net income for the period by the weighted
          average number of both primary and fully diluted shares of common
          stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Stock options are
          regarded as common stock equivalents and are therefore considered in
          both primary and fully diluted earnings per share calculations. Common
          stock equivalents are computed using the treasury stock method. ESOP
          shares not committed to be released to participants are not considered
          outstanding for purposes of computing earnings per share amounts.

Note E -  Effect of New Accounting Standards
          ----------------------------------

          Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
          Extinguishments of Liabilities. In December 1996, the FASB issued
          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 127 ("SFAS No. 127"),
          "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of FASB
          Statement No. 125". The statement delays for one year the
          implementation of SFAS No. 125, as it relates to (1) secured
          borrowings and collateral, and (2) for the transfers of financial
          assets that are part of repurchase agreements, dollar-rolls,
          securities lending and similar transactions. The Company has adopted
          portions of SFAS No. 125 (those not deferred by SFAS No. 127)
          effective January 1, 1997. Adoption of these portions did not have a
          significant effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition
          or results of operations. Based on its review of SFAS No. 125,
          management does not believe that adoption of the portions of SFAS No.
          125 which have been deferred by SFAS No. 127 will have a material
          effect on the Company.

          Accounting for Earnings Per Share. In February 1997, the FASB issued
          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"),
          "Earnings Per Share". This statement establishes standards for
          computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS) and applies to
          entities with publicly held common stock. This statement simplifies
          the standards for computing earnings per share previously found in
          Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share" and
          makes them comparable to international EPS standards. It replaces the
          presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and fully
          diluted EPS with diluted EPS. It also requires dual presentation of
          basic EPS and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all
          entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation
          of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the
          numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation.

          Basic EPS, unlike primary EPS, excludes dilution and is computed by
          dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-
          average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
          EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
          other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into
          common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then
          shared in the earnings of the entity. Diluted EPS is computed
          similarly to fully diluted EPS under APB No. 15.

          SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements for both interim
          and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. The following
          presentation illustrates pro forma basic and diluted earnings per
          share based on the provisions of SFAS No. 128:

          *The fair value of the stock for all periods presented was $10.00 per
          share, the same as the stock option exercise price; therefore no
          common stock equivalents are computed.

          Disclosure of earnings per share calculated in accordance with
          Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share" is
          contained in Exhibit 11.

          Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure. In February 1997,
          the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 129,
          "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" ("SFAS No. 129").
          This statement establishes standards for disclosing information about
          an entity's capital structure. It supersedes specific disclosure
          requirements of APB Opinions No. 10, "Omnibus Opinion-1966," and No.
          15, "Earnings Per Share," and SFAS No. 47, "Disclosure of Long-Term
          Obligations," and consolidates them in this statement for ease of
          retrieval and for greater visibility to nonpublic entities. This
          statement is effective for financial statements for periods ending
          after December 15, 1997. It contains no changes in disclosure
          requirements for entities that were previously subject to the
          requirements of Opinions No. 10 and No. 15 and SFAS No. 47 and,
          therefore, is not expected to have a significant impact on the
          consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the
          Company.

          Reporting Comprehensive Income. In June 1997, the FASB issued
          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
          Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). This statement establishes
          standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
          components (revenues, expenses, gains, losses) in a full set of
          general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 is effective for
          fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has not
          yet determined the impact of adopting this statement.

          Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.
          In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
          Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
          Related Information" ("SFAS No. 131") which becomes effective for
          fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 131
          establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises
          report information about operating segments and requires enterprises
          to report selected information about operating segments in interim
          financial reports. The Company has not yet determined the impact of
          adopting this statement.

          The foregoing does not constitute a comprehensive summary of all
          material changes or developments affecting the manner in which the
          Company keeps its books and records and performs its financial
          accounting responsibilities. It is intended only as a summary of some
          of the recent pronouncements made by the FASB which are of particular
          interest to financial institutions.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

          The assets of West Town Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") increased
approximately $1.2 million, or 4.45%, for the six month period ended September
30, 1997.  This increase was primarily the result of an increase in mortgage
loans receivable held by West Town Savings Bank (the "Bank"), which was
primarily funded by excess cash liquidity resulting from maturities of
investment securities and mortgage-backed securities and increased deposits
during the six month period ended September 30, 1997.

          Net loans receivable increased $2.2 million, or 14.12%, for the six
months ended September 30, 1997.  During that period, the Bank originated or
purchased approximately $2.8 million in loans which approximated repayments of
$2.8 million during the same period.

          The Bank experienced an increase in savings deposits for the six month
period of approximately $1.2 million, or 5.27%.  It is management's belief that
part of the deposit activity for the six months ended September 30, 1997 can be
attributed to new deposit products.

          Stockholders' equity increased approximately $1,600, or .01%, for the
six month period ended September 30, 1997.  This increase was primarily the
result of the amortization of the cost of the Company's stock benefit plans of
$16,000, and net income for the six months of $68,000, partially offset by the
purchase of treasury stock at a cost of $82,000.  As of September 30, 1997, the
book value per common share outstanding was $17.68.

Analysis of Operations
- ----------------------

          A net profit of $29,000 was recognized for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to a net loss of $58,000 for the same period in
1996.  This $87,000 increase in net income was due primarily to an increase in
non-interest income of $6,000, and a decrease in non-interest expense of
$131,000, partially offset by an increase in income taxes of $49,000.  The
Company's net income for the six months ended September 30, 1997 was $68,000 as
compared to a net loss of $16,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996.
This $84,00 increase in net income was due primarily to a $7,000 increase in
non-interest income, and a $128,000 decrease in non-interest expense, partially
offset by a $48,000 increase in income taxes.

          Interest income increased by $54,000 and $91,000 for the three and six
month periods ended September 30, 1997, respectively, as compared to the three
and six month periods ended September 30, 1996.  This was primarily a result of
an increase in the average balances of interest-earnings assets, as well as an
increase in the average yield on those assets.  The average balances of those
assets increased from approximately $24.2 million to $26.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and from $24.1 million
to $26.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997,
respectively.  These increases were accompanied by an increase in the average
yield on average interest-earning assets from 6.76% and 6.84% for the three and
six months ended September 30, 1996 to 7.00% and 7.01% for the three and six
months ended September 30, 1997.

Analysis of Operations (continued)
- ----------------------------------

          Interest expense increased from $226,000 to $284,000 from the three
months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1997.  For the
six months ended September 30, 1996 interest expense was $450,000 as compared to
$549,000 for the same six months in 1997.  These increases were attributable to
increases in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities and increases
in the yield on those liabilities.  The average balances increased approximately
$2.4 million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended September 30,
1997 as compared to the average balances at September 30, 1996, respectively.
The yield on average interest-bearing liabilities increased from 4.27% and 4.25%
for the three and six months ended September 30, 1996 to 4.82% and 4.83% for the
three and six months ended September 30, 1997.

          The Bank calculates any allowance for loan losses based upon its
ongoing evaluation of pertinent factors underlying the types and quality of its
loans, including the risk inherent in its loan portfolio, and other factors such
as the current regulatory and economic environment.  Based upon this evaluation,
loan loss provisions are recorded.  Provisions of $1,500 and $3,651 were made
for the three month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively, and
provisions of $3,000 and $7,302 were made for the six month periods ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively.  Management believes that additions to
its provision for loan losses have been appropriate, given the risks inherent in
its loan portfolio, and the current regulatory and economic environment.
Although the Bank believes its allowance for loan losses is at a level which it
considers to be adequate to provide for potential losses, there can be no
assurance that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts.

          Non-interest income increased by $6,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.  Non-interest income
increased by $7,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to
the same period in 1996.  These increases were primarily attributable to an
increase in loan related fee income and a $5,000 loss recognized on the sale of
foreclosed real estate in 1996.

          Non-interest expense decreased from $272,000 to $141,000 from the
three months ended September 30, 1996 to the three months ended September 30,
1997.  Non-interest expense decreased from $404,000 to $276,000 from the six
months ended September 30, 1996 to the six months ended September 30, 1997.
These decreases were primarily the result of a $128,000 charge, reflected in the
1996 periods, for the estimated amount of the special insurance assessment
adopted by the FDIC to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund.
Occupancy expenses also decreased in the 1997 periods as compared to the same
periods in 1996.  These decreases were partially offset by increases in staffing
costs and professional fees.

          The provision for income taxes increased $49,000 and $48,000 for the
three and six months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, as compared to the
same periods in 1996.  These increases were attributable to pre-tax income in
the 1997 periods as compared to pre-tax losses in the 1996 periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

          At September 30, 1997, the Bank continued to comply with its liquidity
requirements, with an overall liquid asset ratio of 25.76% and a short-term
liquid asset ratio of 23.08%.  Management's objectives and strategies for the
Bank have consistently maintained liquidity levels in excess of regulatory
requirements. It is management's intent to continue its efforts to deploy excess
liquidity into mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities; however, the
success of lending efforts is dependent upon the availability of favorable loan
opportunities and the competition therefor.  At September 30, 1997, the Bank had
no outstanding commitments to fund loans, and no commitments to purchase
mortgage-backed securities or other investment securities.

          The Bank was in compliance with regulatory capital requirements at
September 30, 1997. Capital requirements, ratios, and balances are as follows:

*  Note: The fair value of the stock at September 30, 1997 was $10.00 per share,
         the same as the stock option exercise price; therefore no common stock
         equivalents are computed.

** Note: If average share price is greater than ending price, use average price
         for both primary and fully diluted calculation. This adjustment does
         not apply because the average price and the ending price at September
         30, 1997 are the same as the option exercise price of $10.00 per
         share.
