                              	MARCH 31, 1997




In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary (consisting of only 
normal recurring accruals) have been made to the unaudited financial 
statements to present fairly the Company's financial position as of March 31,  
1997 and the results of the Company's operations and cash flows for the three  
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.  

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are not 
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, 
its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority owned subsidiaries. All 
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in 
consolidation.

M Corp, Great Falls, Montana, owns approximately 91% of the Company's issued 
and outstanding common stock.

The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity 
Securities (SFAS No. 115) effective January 1, 1994.  The Company has 
classified its investments, both current and noncurrent, in debt and equity 
securities as Available-For-Sale, in accordance with the various 
classifications of securities contained in SFAS No. 115.

In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the Company's portfolios, current and 
noncurrent, of Available-For-Sale investments are carried at fair value in 
the Company's balance sheet at March 31, 1997. The net unrealized holding 
gains at March 31, 1997, net of the estimated income tax effects and minority
interests in the unrealized holding gains, is reported as a separate 
component of stockholders' equity at March 31, 1997.

A summary of the period to period changes in items included in the statements
of income is shown below.

                                             (Decreases)

Revenues                              $ 5,631,126         700.1%      

Operating Expenses                    $   543,437         148.3%             

Net Income                            $ 3,007,028        1,008.0%          



Revenues increased $5,631,126 in the first quarter of 1997 as compared with
the first quarter of 1996 due to the gain realized by the Company on the 
merger of Security Bancorp with and into WesterFed Financial Corporation
which was completed during the first quarter of 1997. The Company recognized
a gain on the merger in the pretax amount of approximately $5,351,000.
Pursuant to the terms of the merger, the Company received approximately 
275,000 shares of WesterFed Financial Corporation common stock and cash in 
the amount of approximately $5,351,000. During the first quarter of 1997 the
Company recognized a gain on the contribution of assets in kind to a 
charitable organization in the amount of approximately $408,000. The gains 
recognized during the first quarter of 1997 were the primary reason for the 
increase in net income in the first quarter of 1997 as compared with the 
first quarter of 1996. Operating expenses increased $543,437 (148.3%) in the 
first quarter of 1997 as compared with the first quarter of 1996 due 
primarily to the contribution in kind by the Company of assets having a fair 
market value of approximately $525,000 to a charitable organization which
resulted in an income tax savings to the Company in the amount of 
approximately $215,000. The provision for income tax expense increased 
$2,075,000 (1,338.7%) in the first quarter of 1997 as compared with the first
quarter of 1996 due to the increase in pretax income.
