                         FOREMOST CORPORATION OF AMERICA
              CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.   The notes to the consolidated financial statements are condensed and do not
     contain all information required by generally accepted accounting
     principles to be included in a full set of financial statements.

2.   All information is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all
     adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) have been made
     which are necessary to present fairly the results shown. All significant
     intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the
     results to be expected in any other period.

3.   During the first quarter of 1998, Foremost Corporation of America adopted
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 "Reporting
     Comprehensive Income", which requires that all components of comprehensive
     income and total comprehensive income be reported on one of the following:
     a statement of income and comprehensive income, a statement of
     comprehensive income or a statement of stockholder's equity. Comprehensive
     income is comprised of net income and all changes to stockholder's equity,
     except those due to investments by owners (changes in paid in capital) and
     distributions to owners (dividends). For interim reporting purposes, SFAS
     130 requires disclosure of total comprehensive income.

   Comprehensive income and its components consist of the following:

5.   At the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on April 30, 1998, the
     stockholders approved the Company's Stock Option Plan of 1998, which
     granted the Company's Chairman and CEO, an option to purchase 750,000
     shares of the Company's common stock at a purchase price of $24 per share.
     Except in the case of a change in control or certain events of termination,
     the options only vest if the closing per share sales price of the Company's
     common stock on the New York Stock Exchange is equal to or greater than $48
     per share on at least 10 trading days on or before February 23, 2003.

6.   On June 29, 1998, the Company entered into an unsecured credit agreement
     with a group of banks. This replaced a prior unsecured credit agreement and
     the building mortgage loan that was paid off on May 5, 1998. The new
     agreement provides for a five year revolving credit facility not to exceed
     $40 million and a seven year term loan of $80 million, of which $30 million
     of the term loan will be paid off over six years at $1.25 million per
     quarter. Borrowing rates are based on eurodollar and negotiated rates. The
     existing interest rate swap agreement covering $58 million of the facility
     is still in effect. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had $25 million
     available under the revolving credit facility. The Company also renewed for
     another year the $20 million uncommitted line of credit facility, which
     expired on June 30, 1998.

                  ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


                         FOREMOST CORPORATION OF AMERICA
                    OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL POSITION


Results of Operations

     Foremost Corporation of America's combined loss and expense ratio for the
first six months of 1998 was 94.4% compared to 96.0% for the same period last
year, in spite of industry catastrophe losses of $4.4 billion for the first six
months of 1998 compared with $2.6 billion for all of 1997. As a result,
operating earnings for the first half of 1998, are up by 31% over the same
period last year. Return on equity for the first six months of 1998 is an
annualized 16.2%.

     Net income from continuing operations, before an extraordinary item for the
first six months was $.74 per share compared to $.64 per share in 1997. Realized
gains of $.09 per share in 1998 and $.16 per share in 1997 are included in the
six months results. Net income from continuing operations, before an
extraordinary item, for the second quarter of 1998 was $.33 per share, including
$.05 per share in realized gains, compared to $.48 per share in 1997, including
$.13 per share in realized gains. All per share amounts are stated on a diluted
basis.

     On May 5, 1998, the Company pre-paid the $30.8 million mortgage on its
corporate headquarters and incurred a $3.3 million after-tax prepayment penalty
to extinguish this debt. This cost is classified as an extraordinary item in the
financial statements for the second quarter of 1998 and reduced earnings by $.12
per share. The reason for prepaying the mortgage was to eliminate the
restrictive operating covenants attached to this debt, which hindered our
ability to manage the Company's capital base and leverage ratios through stock
repurchases. The cost of this prepayment penalty will be recouped over time by
the Company's present ability to borrow funds from its line of credit at lower
interest rates. The interest savings equal approximately $.03 per share annually
to the Company's operating results.

     The combined loss and expense ratio for the property and casualty group was
96.1% for the second quarter of 1998 compared to 91.3% for the same period last
year. The increase in the combined ratio can be attributed to higher catastrophe
losses, which doubled from last year's second quarter and resulted in an
additional 7 points to the combined ratio. The Property Claims Services of the
Insurance Services Office, Inc. estimates record industry-wide catastrophe
losses for the second quarter approximating $3.4 billion, which is more than
triple the amount of such losses in the second quarter of 1997.

     Mobile home written premium for the first six months of 1998 was flat on a
comparable basis due to the effect of our on-going catastrophe management
program of not accepting new business in Florida and in certain portions of
California. Direct response automobile premium increased to $3.5 million in the
first half of 1998 compared with $0.9 million in the same period of 1997. Our
dwelling fire insurance, called BASICS, continues its strong growth with a 14.7%
increase in written premium in the first six months.

     After-tax investment income contributed $.181 per share in the second
quarter of 1998 compared to $.186 per share in 1997. For the first six months of
the year, after-tax investment income contributed $.372 per share in 1998
compared to $.366 per share for the same period last year.

     At the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on April 30, 1998, the
stockholders approved several proposals, including those having the following
results:

1)   Adoption of an Agreement and Plan of Merger which changed the Company's
     state of incorporation from Delaware to Michigan effective June 30, 1998;

2)   Amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation increasing the
     Company's authorized common stock from 35,000,000 to 70,000,000 shares;
   
3)   Amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation to authorize a class
     of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock; and
  
4)   Approval of the Company's Stock Option Plan of 1998, which granted the
     Company's Chairman and CEO, an option to purchase 750,000 shares of the
     Company's common stock at a purchase price of $24 per share. Except in the
     case of a change in control or certain events of termination, the options
     only vest if the closing per share sales price of the Company's common
     stock on the New York Stock Exchange is equal to or greater than $48 per
     share on at least 10 trading days on or before February 23, 2003.

Financial Position

         The principle sources of cash for the first six months of 1998 were
$69.8 million from sales and maturities of investments and $18.1 million from
operations. The Company also borrowed an additional $37.5 million. The primary
uses of cash were $72.0 million for the purchases of securities, real estate and
equipment, $30.8 million to prepay the building mortgage, $16.4 million to
repurchase common stock and $4.9 million to pay dividends to shareholders. The
Company had $19.3 million in cash and other liquid assets at June 30, 1998.

         Total invested assets on a cost basis decreased 1.0%, or $5.0 million
during the first six months of 1998. Market values of securities available for
sale decreased $2.6 million net of tax in the first six months of 1998.

         On June 29, 1998, the Company entered into an unsecured credit
agreement with a group of banks. This replaced a prior unsecured credit
agreement and the building mortgage loan that was paid off on May 5, 1998. The
new agreement provides for a five year revolving credit facility not to exceed
$40 million and a seven year term loan of $80 million, of which $30 million of
the term loan will be paid off over six years at $1.25 million per quarter.
Borrowing rates are based on eurodollar and negotiated rates, The existing
interest rate swap agreement covering $58 million of the facility is still in
effect. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had $25 million available under the
revolving credit facility. The Company also renewed the $20 million uncommitted
line of credit facility, which expired on June 30, 1998, for another year.

         The Company continued to manage its capital base and leverage ratios by
repurchasing 338,225 shares of its common stock during the second quarter of
1998, under a previously announced repurchase plan. Since the inception of this
repurchase plan in February 1994, the Company has purchased 5,966,197 shares,
adjusted for the January, 1998 three-for-one stock split.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its subsidiaries routinely are engaged in litigation as
plaintiff and defendant in the normal course of business. In the opinion of
management all of these proceedings, as well as the proceedings described in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1997, are
not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated
financial position, cash flows or operating results. The aggregate ultimate
liability, if any, of the Company and its subsidiaries for said proceedings is
not determinable at June 30, 1998. However, two of the proceedings that were
pending at December 31, 1997 have been terminated without liability to the
Company as follows:

In April 1996, national class actions were filed by the same group of
plaintiffs' attorneys in Wisconsin, Illinois and Florida state courts against
the Company and certain other defendants alleging misrepresentations in
connection with the sale of force-placed collateral protection insurance. The
complaints seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. The Wisconsin
case was conditionally class certified by the Wisconsin state court, before
service of the complaint. On June 22, 1998, the Circuit Court of Waupaca County,
Wisconsin, issued an Order vacating the class certification dismissing all
claims against the Company in the Wisconsin action, without prejudice. The case
filed in the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit, Champaign County,
Illinois, initially was dismissed by the trial court on the Company's motion.
Plaintiffs then filed amended pleadings, and the Company renewed its motion to
dismiss, which motion is pending before the trial court. The action filed in the
Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in and for Dade County, Florida,
has been stayed. The Company is vigorously defending all of these cases and
believes that none has merit. The Company has not established a specific reserve
for these related actions, because the amount of the Company's liability
exposure, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated.

In September 1997, a plaintiff brought a state class action in the United States
District Court the Southern District of Mississippi, Hattiesburg Division,
alleging the failure to disclose information about insurance coverages and
premium structure under policies sold in Mississippi. On May 8, 1998, the Court
issued an Order dismissing all claims against the Company without prejudice.
