ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
           ---------------------------------------------------------

Management's discussion and analysis includes certain forward-looking statements
addressing, among other things, the Company's prospects for earnings, asset
growth and net interest margin. Forward-looking statements are accompanied by,
and identified with, such terms as "anticipates," "believes," "expects,"
"intends," and similar phrases. Management's expectations for the Company's
future necessarily involve a number of assumptions and estimates. Factors that
could cause actual results to differ from the expectations expressed herein are:
substantial changes in interest rates, changes in the general economy, and
changes in the Company's strategies for credit-risk management, interest-rate
risk management and investment activities. Accordingly, any forward-looking
statements included herein do not purport to be predictions of future events or
circumstances and may not be realized.

Comparison of Financial Condition as of September 30, 1998, and March 31, 1998
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All dollar amounts, except per share amounts, included hereafter in Management's
Discussion and Analysis are in thousands.

Securities available for sale and held to maturity increased in the aggregate
$1,615, or 5.7%, to $29,924 at September 30, 1998, primarily due to purchases
totaling $10,888 less securities totaling $9,181 maturing, being called prior to
maturity or payments being received.

Loans receivable, net, at September 30, 1998, were $114,792, a decrease of
$2,749, or 2.3%, from $117,541 at March 31, 1998. The decrease in loans
receivable, net, was primarily due to repayments and the origination of loans
for sale in the secondary market rather than for retention in the Banks'
portfolios. The funds received from the reduction of loans receivable were
primarily reinvested in securities.

The Company's consolidated allowance for loan losses decreased slightly to
$1,079 at September 30, 1998, from $1,106 at March 31, 1998. This decrease of
$27 was due to net charge-offs over recoveries of $84 offset by a provision of
$57. Nonperforming loans at September 30, 1998, decreased to $1,295, or 1.13%,
of loans receivable from $1,735, or 1.48%, of loans receivable at March 31,
1998. At September 30, 1998, there were no material loans not included in
nonperforming loans which represented material credits about which management
was aware of any information which caused management to have serious doubts as
to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

Real estate owned was $692 at September 30, 1998, an increase of $27 from March
31, 1998, as a result of foreclosures on loans that had previously been
nonperforming. Based on an evaluation of the properties, management does not
believe that the Company will suffer any material loss upon their disposition.

Deposits decreased $277, or .17%, to $162,582 at September 30, 1998, from
$162,859 at March 31, 1998. The slight decrease in deposits was primarily the
result of variations in the balances of large commercial accounts.

The Company had stockholders' equity of $18,128 as of September 30, 1998, an
increase of $495, or 2.8%, from $17,633 as of March 31, 1998. The primary
components of the change were net income for the six months ended September 30,
1998, of $742 less dividends of $.2025 per share totaling $492.

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

Traditionally, the Banks' principal sources of funds have been deposits,
principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, and
proceeds from interest on and maturities of investments. In addition, First
Federal has borrowing ability from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta if the
need for additional funds arises. At September 30, 1998, the Banks had
commitments to originate and fund loans of $7.1 million. The Banks anticipate
that they will have sufficient funds available to meet their current
commitments.

First Federal is required by regulation to maintain minimum levels of liquid
assets. The liquidity ratio of First Federal at September 30, 1998, was 18.5%,
which exceeded the applicable regulatory requirement.

Under applicable regulations, First Federal, First State and the Company are
each required to maintain minimum capital ratios. Set forth below are actual
capital ratios and the minimum regulatory capital requirements as of September
30, 1998.

As of September 30, 1998, management was not aware of any trends, events or
uncertainties that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect
on the Company's or the Banks' liquidity, capital resources or operations.


Results of Operations - Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 1998
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and 1997
--------

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1998, was $366, a decrease
of $54, or 12.9%, from net income of $420 for the three months ended September
30, 1997. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the Banks'
interest rate spread because of a higher liquidity position on average during
the current year and costs incurred in connection with the opening of a new
First Federal branch in Vance, Alabama, in July 1997. These items are expected
to contribute to future earnings and growth.

<PAGE>
 
Interest Income
---------------

Total interest income increased $4, or 0.1%, to $3,375 for the three months
ended September 30, 1998. This increase was primarily due to an approximate 2%
increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, net of a decrease in
yield on interest-earning assets to 8.1%, from 8.3%, for the corresponding
quarter of the previous year.

Interest Expense
----------------

Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, was $1,835, an
increase of $24, or 1.3%, to $1,811 from the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the average balance of
deposits net of a slight reduction in average yield for the three months ended
September 30, 1998, compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

Net Interest Income
-------------------

Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, decreased $20, or
1.3%, to $1,540 from the quarter ended September 30, 1997, level of $1,560. This
decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the average net interest spread to
3.5% for the three months ended September 30, 1998, from 3.6% for the same
period in the prior year. The decrease was offset by a slight increase in the
average balance of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
during the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to the same period in
the prior year. The net interest margin decreased to 3.7% in the three months
ended September 30, 1998, from 3.8% for the same period in the prior year.

Provision for Loan Losses
-------------------------

Management increased the Company's total allowance for loan losses by a
provision of $28 during the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The Banks'
allowances for loan losses were based on management's evaluation of possible
losses inherent in the loan portfolio and consider, among other factors, prior
years' loss experience, economic conditions, distribution of portfolio loans by
risk class and the estimated value of the underlying collateral.

Noninterest Income
------------------

Noninterest income during the quarter ended September 30, 1998, decreased $7, to
$203, from the September 30, 1997, level of $210. The decrease was primarily
related to a decline in lease income resulting from the sale of property during
the third quarter of the previous year that was under lease until that time.

Noninterest Expenses
--------------------

Noninterest expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 1998, increased $93
to $1,174 from the September 30, 1997, level of $1,081. The increase in
noninterest expense was primarily the result of opening a new branch in Vance,
Alabama, in July 1997.

Income Taxes
------------

The provision for income taxes decreased $43, or 19.7%, to $175 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1998, as compared to the corresponding quarter in 1997. The
decreased tax expense was due primarily to a decrease in pretax income from the
same period a year ago.

Results of Operations - Comparison of the Six Months Ended September 30, 1998
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
and 1997
--------

Net income for the six months ended September 30, 1998, was $742, a decrease of
$112, from net income of $854 for the six months ended September 30, 1997. The
decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the Banks' interest rate
spread because of a higher liquidity position on average during the current year
and costs incurred in connection with the opening of a new First Federal branch
in Vance, Alabama, in July 1997. These items are expected to contribute to
future earnings and growth.

Interest Income
---------------

Total interest income decreased $27, or 0.4%, to $6,758 for the six months ended
September 30, 1998. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in the
average yield on the interest-earning assets to 8.1% during the six months ended
September 30, 1998, from 8.3% during the six months ended September 30, 1997.
The decrease was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of
interest earning assets during the six months ended September 30, 1998, as
compared to the six months ended September 30, 1997.

Interest Expense
----------------

Interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 1998, increased $7, or
0.2%, to $3,642, from $3,635 during the six months ended September 30, 1997.
This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the average level of
deposits of approximately 3% for the six months ended September 30, 1998. The
increase is net of a reduction in the average rate paid on deposits to 4.6% for
the six month period ended September 30, 1998, compared to 4.7% for the same
period a year ago.

Net Interest Income
-------------------

Net interest income for the six months ended September 30, 1998, decreased $34,
or 1.1%, to $3,116, from $3,150 for the six months ended September 30, 1997.
This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the average net interest spread
to 3.6% for the six months ended September 30, 1998, from 3.7% for the six
months ended September 30, 1997. The net interest margin decreased to 3.7% in
the six months ended September 30, 1998, from 3.9% in the six months ended
September 30, 1997.

Provision for Loan Losses
-------------------------

The Company's consolidated allowances for loan losses are based on management's
evaluation of possible losses inherent in the loan portfolios. Among other
factors, management considers historical loss experience, current economic
conditions, distribution of the loan portfolios by risk class and the estimated
value of the underlying collateral. The allowances for loan losses were
increased by provisions of $57 for the six months ended September 30, 1998.
These provisions were recorded to maintain the allowances for loan losses at
adequate levels.

Noninterest Income
------------------

Noninterest income for the six months ended September 30, 1998, totaled $406 as
compared to $439 for the six months ended September 30, 1997. The decrease was
primarily related to a decline in lease income resulting from the sale of
property during the third quarter of the previous year that was under lease
until that time.

Noninterest Expenses
--------------------

Noninterest expenses during the six months ended September 30, 1998, increased
$170 to $2,358 from the fiscal 1998 level of $2,188. The increase in noninterest
expense was primarily the result of opening a new branch in Vance, Alabama, in
July 1997.

Income Taxes
------------

The provision for income taxes decreased $80, to $365 for the six months ended
September 30, 1998, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year.
The decreased tax expense was due to the decrease in pretax income.

Year 2000
---------

The Company is addressing the issue of Year 2000, which relates to software
being written using a two digit format rather than a four digit format to
represent the year. The date change format requires modification to some
software and computer systems so that dates beyond December 31, 1999, will be
properly recognized. The Banks have formed committees to assess, test, prepare
and overview the applicable software, equipment and related technologies related
to Year 2000 readiness.

The Banks rely primarily upon a third party processor and other vendors rather
than internally generated software. Based on the analysis of software and
equipment, in addition to ongoing discussions with vendors, the Company believes
that upgrades, modifications or conversion of software planned by the Company
and the third party vendors will properly address the Year 2000 issue. The third
party processor, which processes all customer related data, has represented to
the Banks that the testing of the software will be substantially completed prior
to December 31, 1998. The Banks have adopted Year 2000 Test Plans and are in the
process of conducting testing and evaluating results. If modifications to
existing systems and conversions to new systems proceed as scheduled, management
presently believes that the Year 2000 issue will not pose a substantial internal
operating risk to the Company.

Additionally, the Company has implemented a process for assessing readiness of
various suppliers of other services. There can be no guarantee, however, that
the systems of these outside parties will be Year 2000 compliant on a timely
basis. In turn, this could result in disruption to the operations of the
Company. The Banks have adopted a Year 2000 Contingency Plan which would replace
its computerized operations with a manual system, if necessary.

The Banks are educating and assisting customers in identifying their Year 2000
issues. It has been determined that this is a relatively low risk area in that
the Banks' customers have a minimal reliance on computers to conduct business.

Total Year 2000 costs include such items as payroll costs, upgrading existing
software applications, and replacing certain hardware. The Banks do not have a
system that specifically tracks all costs and time spent on the Year 2000 issue.
The Company is in the process of estimating total expense related to Year 2000.
Such expenses incurred during the quarter and six months ended September 30,
1998, are not considered significant.

in the ordinary course of business. At September 30, 1998, there were no legal

result in a material loss.

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

       Effective June 29, 1998, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted
an amendment to Rule 14a-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As
amended, Rule 14a-4(c)(1) relates to the Company's use of its discretionary
proxy voting authority with respect to a stockholder proposal which the
stockholder has not sought to include in the Company's proxy statement. If the
proponent of the proposal fails to notify the Company by the date established by
the notice provision in the Company's Bylaws, management proxies will be allowed
to use their discretionary voting authority if the proposal is raised at the
meeting, without any discussion of the matter in the proxy statement.

                                       12

           The Bylaws of the Company provide an advance notice procedure for
certain business to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders. In
order for a stockholder to properly bring business before an annual meeting, the
stockholder must give written notice to the Secretary of the Company not less
than 90 days prior to the date of such meeting; provided, however, that if less
than 100 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the meeting is given or made
to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be received not
later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which
notice of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made.

           With respect to the Company's 1999 Annual Meeting of Stockholders,
which will be held at the main office of the Company on April 27, 1999, if the
Company is not provided notice of a stockholder proposal, which the stockholder
has not previously sought to include in the Company's proxy statement, by
January 27, 1999, management proxies will be allowed to use their discretionary
authority as outlined above.
