                         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, 1998, 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 three and six month periods ended September
          30, 1998 and 1997 was determined by dividing net income for the period
          by the weighted average number of both basic and diluted shares of
          common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding (see Exhibit 11
          attached).  Stock options are regarded as common stock equivalents and
          are therefore considered in 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.  Earnings per share data for the three and six month periods
          ended September 30, 1997 have been restated for comparative purposes
          to reflect the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting
          Standards No. 128.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -----------------------------------------

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

          Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
          Benefits.  In February 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial
          Accounting Standards No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions
          and Other Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS No. 132").  SFAS No. 132
          alters current disclosure requirements regarding pensions and other
          postretirement benefits in the financial statements of employers who
          sponsor such benefit plans.  The revised disclosure requirements are
          designed to provide additional information to assist readers in
          evaluating future costs related to such plans.  Additionally, the
          revised disclosures are designed to provide changes in the components
          of pension and benefit costs in addition to the year end components of
          those factors in the resulting asset or liability related to such
          plans.  The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
          December 15, 1997 with earlier application available.  Management does
          not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 132 will have a material impact
          on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of
          operations.

          Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  In June
          1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
          133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities",
          ("SFAS No. 133") which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
          June 15, 1999.  The statement requires all derivatives to be recorded
          on the balance sheet at fair value.  It also establishes "special
          accounting" for hedges of changes in the fair value of assets,
          liabilities, or firm commitments (fair value hedges), hedges of the
          variable cash flows of forecasted transactions (cash flow hedges), and
          hedges of foreign currency exposures of net investments in foreign
          operations.  To the extent the hedge is considered highly effective,
          both the change in the fair value of the derivative and the change in
          the fair value of the hedged item are recognized (offset) in earnings
          in the same period.  Changes in fair value of derivatives that do not
          meet the criteria of one of these three hedge categories are included
          in income.  Management does not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 133
          will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
          condition or results of operations.

          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.

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

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


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

     The assets of West Town Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") increased
approximately $662,000, or 2.24%, for the six month period ended September 30,
1998.  This increase was primarily the result of increases in cash and cash
equivalents and in mortgage loans receivable held by West Town Savings Bank (the
"Bank"), which were 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, 1998.

     Net loans receivable increased $935,000, or 5.07%, for the six months
ended September 30, 1998.  During that period, the Bank originated or purchased
approximately $4.9 million in loans which exceeded repayments of $3.5 million
and participation loans sold of $491,000 during the same period.

     The Bank experienced an increase in savings deposits for the six month
period of approximately $450,000, or 1.78%.  It is management's belief that part
of the deposit activity for the six months ended September 30, 1998 can be
attributed to new deposit products.

     Stockholders' equity increased approximately $78,000, or 1.94%, for the six
month period ended September 30, 1998. This increase was primarily the result of
the amortization of the cost of the Company's stock benefit plans of $8,000, and
net income for the six months of $94,000, partially offset by the purchase of
treasury stock at a cost of $24,000. As of September 30, 1998, the book value
per common share outstanding was $18.53.

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

     A net profit of $51,000 was recognized for the three months ended September
30, 1998 as compared to a net profit of $29,000 for the same period in 1997.
This $22,000 increase in net income was due primarily to an increase in net
interest income of $35,000, partially offset by an increase in income taxes of
$17,000. The Company's net income for the six months ended September 30, 1998
was $94,000 as compared to a net profit of $68,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1997. This $26,000 increase in net income was due primarily to a
$46,000 increase in net interest income, and a $5,000 increase in non-interest
income, partially offset by a $6,000 increase in non-interest expense and an
$18,000 increase in income taxes.

     Interest income increased by $65,000 and $125,000 for the three and six
month periods ended September 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the three
and six month periods ended September 30, 1997. 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 $26.5 million to $28.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively, and from $26.1 million
to $28.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 1997 and 1998,
respectively. These increases were accompanied by an increase in the average
yield on average interest-earning assets from 7.00% and 7.01% for the three and
six months ended September 30, 1997 to 7.37% and 7.30% for the three and six
months ended September 30, 1998.

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

     Interest expense increased from $284,000 to $313,000 from the three months
ended September 30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1998. For the six months
ended September 30, 1997 interest expense was $549,000 as compared to $628,000
for the same six months in 1998. 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 $1.8
million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the average balances at September 30, 1997, respectively. The
yield on average interest-bearing liabilities increased from 4.82% and 4.73% for
the three and six months ended September 30, 1997 to 4.95% and 4.96% for the
three and six months ended September 30, 1998.

     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 $1,500 were made for the
three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 respectively, and
provisions of $3,000 and $3,000 were made for the six month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 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 $2,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 as compared to the same period in 1997.  Non-interest income
increased by $5,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to
the same period in 1997.  These increases were primarily attributable to
increases in rental income and deposit related fee income.

     Non-interest expense decreased from $141,000 to $140,000 from the three
months ended September 30, 1997 to the three months ended September 30, 1998.
Non-interest expense increased from $276,000 to $282,000 from the six months
ended September 30, 1997 to the six months ended September 30, 1998. The
increase for the six month period was primarily the result of increases in
occupancy and equipment expenses of $7,000, data processing of $5,000 and
professional fees of $2,000, partially offset by decreases in compensation
expenses of $4,000 and other expenses of $5,000.

     The provision for income taxes increased $17,000 and $18,000 for the three
and six months ended September 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same
periods in 1997. These increases were attributable to increases in pre-tax
income in the 1998 periods as compared to the 1997 periods.

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

     At September 30, 1998, the Bank continued to comply with its liquidity
requirements, with an overall liquid asset ratio of 26.44% and a short-term
liquid asset ratio of 28.40%.  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, 1998, 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, 1998. Capital requirements, ratios, and balances are as follows:

Year 2000 Compliance
- --------------------

     The Company utilizes and is dependent upon data processing systems and
software to conduct its business.  The data processing systems and software
include those developed and maintained by the Company's third-party data
processing vendor and purchased software which is run on in-house computer
networks.  During the previous fiscal year, the Company initiated a review and
assessment of all hardware and software to confirm that it will function
properly in the year 2000.  To date, those vendors which have been contacted
have indicated that their hardware or software is or will be Year 2000 compliant
in time frames that meet regulatory requirements.  The costs associated with the
compliance efforts are not expected to have a significant impact on the
Company's ongoing results of operations.

Safe Harbor Provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
