                         FIRST FEDERAL BANCORP, INC.
                 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.    Basis of Presentation
      ---------------------

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB.  The Form
10-QSB does not include all the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
Only material changes in financial condition and results of operations are
discussed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

In the opinion of management, the condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
condition of First Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("Bancorp"), as of March 31, 2000,
and September 30, 1999, and the results of its operations for the three and
six months ended March 31, 2000, and 1999, and its cash flow for the six
months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.  The results of operations for the
interim periods reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results of
operations to be expected for the entire year.

2.    Commitments
      -----------

Outstanding commitments to originate mortgage loans and to sell mortgage
loans were $475,800 and $0 respectively, at March 31, 2000, and $3,327,100
and $0 respectively at September 30, 1999.

3.    Earnings and Dividends Per Common Share
      ---------------------------------------

Basic earnings per share is based on net income divided by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings
per share shows the dilutive effect of additional common shares issuable
under stock options.

4.    Allowance for Losses on Loans
      -----------------------------

Because some loans may not be repaid in full, an allowance for loan losses
is recorded.  Increases to the allowance are recorded by a provision for
loan losses charged to expense.  Estimating the risk of loss and the amount
of loss on any loan is necessarily subjective.  Accordingly, the allowance
is maintained by management at a level considered adequate to cover probable
losses that are currently anticipated based on past loss experience, general
economic conditions, information about specific borrower situations,
including their financial position and collateral values, and other factors
and estimates which are subject to change over time.  While management may
periodically allocate portions of the allowance for specific problem loan
situations, the whole allowance is available for any loan charge-offs that
occur.  A loan is charged-off by management as a loss when deemed
uncollectible, although collection efforts continue and future recoveries
may occur.

Loans are considered impaired if full principal or interest payments are not
anticipated.  Impaired loans are carried at the present value of expected
cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or at the fair
value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  A portion of
the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans.

Smaller-balance, homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total.
Such loans include residential first mortgage loans secured by one- to four-
family residences, residential construction loans, and automobile, home
equity and second mortgage loans.  Mortgage loans secured by other
properties are evaluated individually for impairment.  When analysis of
borrower operating results and financial condition indicates that underlying
cash flows of the borrower's business are not adequate to meet its debt
service requirements, the loan is evaluated for impairment. Loans are
generally moved to nonaccrual status when 90 days or more past due.  These
loans are often also considered impaired.  Impaired loans, or portions
thereof, are charged-off when deemed uncollectible.  The nature of
disclosures for impaired loans is considered generally comparable to prior
nonaccrual and renegotiated loans and nonperforming and past-due asset
disclosures.  The Savings Bank had no loans meeting the definition of
impaired during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, and the year ended
September 30, 1999.

5.    Interest Income on Loans
      ------------------------

Interest on loans is accrued over the term of the loans based upon the
principal outstanding.  Management reviews loans delinquent 90 days or more
to determine if the interest accrual should be discontinued.  The carrying
value of impaired loans reflects cash payments, revised estimates of future
cash flows, and increases in the present value of expected cash flows due to
the passage of time.  Cash payments representing interest income are
reported as such and other cash payments are reported as reductions in
carrying value.  Increases or decreases in carrying value due to changes in
estimates of future payments or the passage of time are reported as
reductions or increases in bad debt expense.


                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General
-------

First Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("Bancorp"), is a savings and loan holding
company that wholly owns First Federal Savings Bank of Eastern Ohio (the
"Savings Bank").  The Savings Bank is engaged in the savings and loan
business primarily in Central and Eastern Ohio.  The Savings Bank is a
member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Cincinnati, and the deposit
accounts in the Savings Bank are insured up to the applicable limits by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in the Savings Association Insurance
Fund ("SAIF").

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
-----------------------------------------

In addition to historical information contained herein, the following
discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties.  Economic circumstances, First Federal's operations and First
Federal's actual results could differ significantly from those discussed in
the forward-looking statements.  Some of the factors that could cause or
contribute to such differences are discussed herein but also include changes
in the economy and interest rates in the nation and First Federal's market
area generally.  See Exhibit 99.2 hereto, which is incorporated herein by
reference.

Some of the forward-looking statements included herein are the statements
regarding the following:

1.    Management's determination of the amount of loan loss allowance;

2.    Management's belief that deposits will increase slightly during fiscal
      year 2000;

3.    Management's anticipation that loan demand will remain stable but that
      the mortgage loan portfolio will increase as higher interest rates
      make adjustable mortgages, which are held in portfolio, more
      attractive;

4.    Management's anticipation that advances from the FHLB will increase to
      fund loan originations; and

5.    Management's anticipation that adjustable-rate loans will reprice
      higher in fiscal year 2000 if interest rates remain relatively stable.

Changes in Financial Condition from September 30, 1999 to March 31, 2000
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total consolidated assets of Bancorp increased by $19.3 million, or 9.19%,
from $209.9 million at September 30, 1999, to $229.1 million at March 31,
2000.  The increase is due primarily to an increase of $19.5 million in
loans receivable offset by a decrease of $.4 million in cash and cash
equivalents and a decrease of $.2 million in premises and equipment.

Total liquidity (consisting of cash and amounts due from depository
institutions, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, and investment
securities) was $17.2 million at March 31, 2000, which is a decrease of $.4
million from September 30, 1999.  The regulatory liquidity of the Savings
Bank was 5.85% at March 31, 2000 and 6.49% at September 30, 1999, which was
in excess of the minimum regulatory requirement of 4%.  Funds are available
through FHLB advances to meet the Savings Bank's liquidity requirement if
necessary.

The loans receivable balance increased $19.5 million for the six-month
period.  As rates increased, consumer demand for adjustable-rate mortgages
has increased.  The Savings Bank has retained these adjustable-rate
mortgages in its portfolio as they meet the requirement of its Strategic
Plan.  Consumer loans increased $13.9 million, and mortgages increased $5.6
million from September 30, 1999.  Management anticipates that loan demand
will remain stable but that the mortgage loan portfolio will increase as
higher interest rates make adjustable mortgages more attractive.  No
assurance can be provided, however, that the loan portfolio will increase or
that loan demand will remain stable.

As of March 31, 2000, the Savings Bank had borrowed funds from the FHLB in
the amount of $54.3 million at a weighted average rate of 6.47%.  FHLB
advances increased $8.7 million from $45.6 million at September 30, 1999.
The Savings Bank has obtained a line of credit at the discount window of the
Federal Reserve System for $11.0 million secured by consumer auto loans.
The balance on the line of credit was $0 as of March 31, 2000.  Deposits
increased by $10.1 million, or 6.96%, from $145.1 million at September 30,
1999, to $155.2 million at March 31, 2000.  The increase in savings was due
to an increase in certificates of deposit of $6.7 million and transaction
accounts of $3.4 million.  The Savings Bank utilizes a subscription service
to attract funds throughout the United States.  This program has generated
$8.5 million in deposits since September 30, 1999, at a weighted average
rate of 6.40%.  Management believes that deposits will increase slightly
during fiscal year 2000 and that it will be necessary to fund the
anticipated steady loan demand with further advances from the FHLB, whose
rates are now in line with current market savings rates and their SAIF
premiums.  No assurance can be provided, however, that deposits will
increase slightly and that the loan portfolio will increase or that loan
demand will remain stable.  Deposit levels and loan demand are affected by
national, as well as local, interest rates, the attractiveness of
alternative investments and other national and local economic circumstances.

The Savings Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements established
by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS").  The Savings Bank's capital
ratios were as follows at March 31, 2000.

</FN>
</TABLE>


Management is not aware of any proposed regulations or recommendations by
the OTS that, if implemented, would have a material effect upon the Savings
Bank's capital.

In August 1996, Congress passed legislation repealing the reserve method of
accounting used by many thrifts to calculate their bad debt reserve for
federal income tax purposes and requiring any bad debt reserves taken after
1987, using the percentage of taxable income method, be included in future
taxable income of the association over a six-year period.  A two-year delay
is permitted for institutions meeting a residential mortgage loan
origination test.  At September 30, 1999, First Federal had approximately
$1.6 million in bad debt reserves subject to recapture for federal income
tax purposes.  The deferred tax liability related to the recapture was
established in prior years, so First Federal's net income will not be
negatively affected by this legislation.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three- and Six-Month
------------------------------------------------------------
 Periods Ended March 31, 2000, and 1999
 --------------------------------------

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $14,000 for
the three-month comparative periods and increased $85,000 for the
comparative six-month periods.  Total interest expense increased $82,000 for
the three-month period and decreased $102,000 for the six-month period ended
March 31, 2000, compared to the same periods in 1999.  Total interest income
increased primarily due to an increase in the interest earned on loans
receivable offset by a reduction in interest earned on other interest
earning investments.  The balance of other earning investments decreased
$406,000 to $2.1 million for the three-month comparative periods, and
increased $193,000 for the comparative six-month periods.

The majority of the loans in the Savings Bank's portfolio are adjustable-
rate mortgage loans whose interest rates fluctuate with market interest
rates.  If interest rates remain relatively stable during fiscal year 2000,
the adjustable-rate mortgage loan portfolio will reprice at slightly higher
rates, as most loans originated during fiscal year 1999 were not initially
priced at the fully indexed interest rate.  These loans will be repricing
upward at their first adjustment in fiscal year 2000 while the balance of
the adjustable-rate mortgage loan portfolio will not reprice substantially
lower during fiscal year 2000.  No assurance can be provided, however, that
interest rates will remain stable.  Interest rates are affected by general,
local and national economic conditions, the policies of various regulatory
authorities and other factors beyond the control of First Federal.

Nonperforming and Delinquent Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses
----------------------------------------------------------------

Total nonaccrual loans and accruing loans that are 90 days past due were
$268,000 at March 31, 2000, which represents .14% of total loans.  This was
a decrease of $140,000 from March 31, 1999.

There were no loans that are not currently classified as nonaccrual, 90 days
past due or restructured but which may be so classified in the near future
because management has concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply
with repayment terms.

The Savings Bank maintains an allowance for losses on loans.  The allowance
for losses on loans was $1,773,154 at March 31, 2000, compared to $1,798,000
at March 31, 1999.  During the six-month periods ended March 31, 2000, and
March 31, 1999, the Savings Bank recorded recoveries of $15,377 and $0 and
charge-offs of $26,020 and $197,000 respectively.  Charge-offs decreased
$171,000 due to the decline in delinquencies.  A percentage of the
outstanding loan balances is added or deducted from the provision for loan
losses as the loan portfolio increases and decreases.  During the six-month
period ended March 31, 2000, the loan portfolio increased $19.5 million,
which caused the provision for loan losses for the period to increase.  The
provisions for loan losses during the six-month periods ended March 31,
2000, and 1999, were $45,000 and $(47,000) respectively.

Noninterest Income and Expense
------------------------------

The federal income tax provision increased $61,000 for the three-month
period and $41,000 for the six-month period ended March 31, 2000, compared
to the same period in 1999 due to an increase in pre-tax net income for the
period.

Total noninterest income increased $8,600 for the three-month period and
$44,000 for the six-month period ended March 31, 2000, compared to the same
period in 1999.  Dividends on FHLB stock increased $5,000 for the three-
month period and $9,500 for the six-month period ended March 31, 2000 due to
an increase in FHLB stock held.  Other income increased $9,100 for the
comparative three-month periods and $44,000 for the comparative six-month
periods.  Fee income increased $8,500 for the comparative three-month
periods and $30,200 for the comparative six-month periods due to an increase
on fees collected on savings products, ATM, ACH and miscellaneous fees.
These increases are a result of implementing recommendations from the
independent study completed in the second quarter of fiscal 1999.  These
increases were offset by a decrease in a gain on the sale of loans due to
keeping more of the loan production in portfolio.

Total noninterest expenses decreased $72,000 for the three-month period and
increased $28,000 for the six-month period ended March 31, 2000, compared to
the same period in 1999.  Salaries and benefits decreased $68,000 for the
three-month period and $6,200 for the six-month period ended December 1999.
Occupancy expense increased $23,500 for the six-month period ended March 31,
2000; $10,000 of the increase was due to increased depreciation on furniture
and fixtures, and $13,500 of the increase was due to increased costs for ATM
upgrades and maintenance agreements on equipment.  Advertising increased
$33,000 due to increased marketing and increased marketing costs.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
---------------------------------------

The financial statements and related data presented herein have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"), which require the measurement of financial position and results of
operations in terms of historical dollars without considering changes in
relative purchasing power of money over time because of inflation.

Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and
liabilities of First Federal are monetary in nature.  As a result, interest
rates have a more significant impact on First Federal's performance than the
effects of general levels of inflation.  Interest rates do not necessarily
move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods
and services.

Effect of Accounting Changes
----------------------------

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities."  SFAS No. 133 standardizes the
accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts.  Under the standard, entities are
required to carry all derivative instruments in the statement of financial
position at fair value.  The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e.
gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been
designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, if so, on
the reason for holding it.  If certain conditions are met, entities may
elect to designate a derivative instrument as a hedge of exposures to
changes in fair value, cash flows, or foreign currencies.  If the hedged
exposure is a fair value exposure, the gain or loss on the derivative
instrument is recognized in earnings in the period of change together with
the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the risk
being hedged.  If the hedged exposure is a cash flow exposure, the effective
portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported
initially as a component of other comprehensive income (outside earnings)
and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction
affects earnings.  Any amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge
effectiveness as well as the ineffective portion of the gain or loss are
reported in earnings immediately.  Accounting for foreign currency hedges is
similar to accounting for fair value and cash flow hedges.  If the
derivative instrument is not designated as a hedge, the gain or loss is
recognized in earnings in the period of change.  SFAS No. 133, as amended,
is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.  This Statement
will not have a material effect on the Company.
