and the results of the Company's operations for the three months and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the nine months 
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 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.

noncurrent, of Available-For-Sale investments are carried at fair value in

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                            OF THE INCOME STATEMENT

                             SEPTEMBER 30, 1998



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

                                                   
                                       COMPARISON      OF
                               THREE MONTHS           NINE MONTHS
                                   ENDED                 ENDED
                               SEPTEMBER 30,          SEPTEMBER 30,
                               1998 AND 1997          1998 AND 1997

                               INCREASES              (DECREASES)

Revenues                  $ 502,516      59.5%       $(4,455,471)    (55.0%)  

Expenses                     59,668      14.3%            90,157       5.1%     

Net Income                  411,130     354.0%        (2,694,836)    (68.3%)


Revenues decreased $4,455,471 in the first nine months of 1998 as compared 
with the first nine months of 1997 due primarily to the gain recognized 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 during 1997 in the pretax amount
of approximately $5,351,000. During the first nine months of 1998 the 
Company recognized gains on the disposition of investments in the pretax 
amount of $368,939. During the first nine months of 1998 the Company 
recognized a gain on the contribution of assets in kind to a charitable 
organization in the amount of $417,420 as compared with a similar gain in 
the amount of $408,000 recognized during the first nine months of 1997. 
The gains recognized during the first nine months of 1997 were the primary 
reason for the decrease in revenues and the decrease in net income in the 
first nine months of 1998 as compared with the first nine months of 1997. 
Operating expenses increased $90,157 (5.1%) in the first nine months of 1998 
as compared with the first nine months of 1997 due primarily to increases in 
payroll and payroll costs associated with the Company's title insurance 
agency business. The provision for income tax expense decreased $1,855,000 
(78.7%) in the first nine months of 1998 as compared with the first nine 
months of 1997 due to the decrease in pretax income.
