                         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 accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America 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 accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America 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.

The consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2002 has been derived
from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date.

In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain
all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition of
First Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("Bancorp"), as of March 31, 2003, and
September 30, 2002, and the results of its operations for the three and six
months ended March 31, 2003, and 2002, and its cash flow for the six months
ended March, 2003 and 2002.  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 $1,805,585 and $1,022,650 respectively, at March 31, 2003, and
$2,147,875 and $751,100 respectively at September 30, 2002.

3.    Earnings 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 may be 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, 2003, and the year ended
September 30, 2002.

5.    Stock Options
      -------------

Bancorp accounts for its stock option plan under the recognition and
measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees, and related Interpretations.  No stock-based employee
compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under
those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the
underlying common stock on the grant date.  The following table illustrates
the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied
the fair value provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock
Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

ITEM 2.

                   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, the Savings Bank's operations and
the Savings Bank'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
the Savings Bank's market area generally.

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 during the
            remaining fiscal year 2003;

      3.    Management's anticipation that loan demand will remain stable,
            but that the mortgage loan portfolio will decrease as lower
            interest rates make adjustable mortgages, which are held in
            portfolio rather than being sold, less attractive;

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

      5.    Management's anticipation that adjustable-rate loans will
            reprice lower in fiscal year 2003 if interest rates remain
            relatively stable or decrease; and

      6.    Legislative changes with respect to the activities of financial
            institutions.

Changes in Financial Condition from September 30, 2002 to March 31, 2003
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total consolidated assets of Bancorp increased by $2.9 million, or 1.31%,
from $226.5 million at September 30, 2002, to $229.4 million at March 31,
2003.  The increase is due primarily to an increase of $2.9 million in
loans receivable.

Total liquidity (consisting of cash and amounts due from depository
institutions, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, and investment
securities) was $17.3 million at March 31, 2003, which is an increase of
$300,000 from September 30, 2002.  The OTS requires savings associations to
maintain a sufficient level of investments in specified types of liquid
assets intended to provide a source of relatively liquid funds upon which
the Savings Bank may rely if necessary to fund deposit withdrawals and
other short-term funding needs.  The liquidity of the Savings Bank, defined
as adjusted liquid assets divided by deposits (not including jumbo
certificates due in one year or less), was 7.47% at March 31, 2003 and
6.86% at September 30, 2002.  Funds are available through FHLB advances to
meet the Savings Bank's liquidity needs.

The loans receivable balance increased $2.9 million for the six-month
period.  The increase in loans receivable was comprised of an increase in
residential real estate loans of $2.1 million, a $2.6 million increase in
non-residential real estate loans and commercial loans, and a $1.5 million
increase in other consumer loans, offset by a $3.5 million decrease in
consumer automobile loans.  The increase in residential loans was due to
the financing of a group of non-owner occupied loans at a variable rate.
The decrease in consumer auto loans was due to a decreased volume in loans
originated due to lack of demand.

As of March 31, 2003, the Savings Bank had long- and short-term borrowed
funds from the FHLB in the amount of $32.9 million and $10.2 million,
respectively, at a weighted average rate of 4.81%.  Long-term FHLB advances
decreased $10.0 million from $42.9 million and short-term FHLB advances
increased $7.4 million from September 30, 2002.  As of March 31, 2003, the
Savings Bank had a borrowing limit of $71.6 million at the FHLB.  The limit
is collateralized by one-to-four and multi-family mortgage loans.  The net
decrease in FHLB advances of $2.6 million was due to the use of increased
deposits and loan pay downs to pay off FHLB advances.  Deposits increased
by $5.2 million, or 3.31%, from $157.7 million at September 30, 2002, to
$162.9 million at March 31, 2003.  The increase in savings was in various
checking and larger minimum balance savings accounts.  Management believes
that deposits will increase during the remaining fiscal year 2003 but that
it may be necessary to fund the anticipated steady loan demand with further
advances from the FHLB.  No assurance can be provided, however, that
deposits will increase, that the loan portfolio will decrease as lower
interest rates make adjustable mortgages, which are held in portfolio
rather than being sold, less attractive 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, 2003.

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.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three-and Six-Month Periods
-------------------------------------------------------------------
 Ended March 31, 2003, and 2002
 ------------------------------

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

Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased $87,000 for
the comparative three-month periods and $374,000 for the comparative six-
month periods.  Total interest income decreased $436,000 for the three-
month period and $1.2 million for the six-month period ended March 31,
2003, compared to the same period in 2002, but was partially offset by a
decrease of interest expense of $349,000 and $800,000 for the same period.
Total interest income decreased primarily due to a decrease in the interest
rate on loans receivable and the reduction in the average loan portfolio
balance outstanding.  The average balance outstanding of loans receivable
decreased $5.3 million to $194.9 million at March 2003, compared to $200.2
million at March 2002.  Total interest expense decreased due to the
reduction in interest rates paid on deposits and due to the shift in
savings to lower yielding accounts from certificates since March 31, 2002.

The majority of the loans in the Savings Bank's portfolio are adjustable-
rate mortgage loans whose interest rates fluctuate with market interest
rates.  With the recent lowering of rates, many loan customers have chosen
fixed-rate loans over adjustable-rate loans.  This has resulted in selling
more loans in the secondary market versus keeping the loans in the Savings
Bank's portfolio.  If interest rates remain relatively stable or decrease
during fiscal year 2003, the adjustable-rate mortgage loan portfolio will
reprice at lower rates, due to the rapid decrease in interest rates, while
rising interest rates could result in upward adjustments to the interest
rates on those loans.  No assurance can be provided with respect to which
direction interest rates will move.  Interest rates are affected by
general, local and national economic conditions, the policies of various
regulatory authorities and other factors beyond the control of the Savings
Bank.

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

Total nonaccrual loans and accruing loans that are 90 days past due were
$355,000 at March 31, 2003, which represents .18% of total loans.  This was
a decrease of $223,000 from March 31, 2002.

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 $1,526,000 at March 31, 2003, compared to
$1,729,899 at March 31, 2002.  During the six-month periods ended March 31,
2003, and March 31, 2002, the Savings Bank recorded recoveries of $113,139
and $25,069 and charge-offs of $344,783 and $105,181 respectively.  The
provisions for loan losses during the six-month periods ended March 31,
2003, and 2002, were $69,371 and $205,034 respectively.

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

The federal income tax provision increased $20,378 for the three-month
period and decreased $128,223 for the six-month period ended March 31,
2003, compared to the same period in 2002 due to a corresponding adjustment
in pre-tax net income for the period.

Total noninterest income decreased $16,000 for the three-month period and
$238,000 for the six-month period ended March 31, 2003, compared to the
same period in 2002.  There was a decrease in the gain on the sale of loans
of $99,000 for the three-month period and $347,000 for the six-month period
ended March 31, 2003, due to the recording of impairment of mortgage
servicing rights on loans that were sold in the secondary market.  Service
charges on deposit accounts increased $42,000 and $88,000 for the three-
and six-month periods ended March 31, 2003.  Other fee income increased
$41,000 and $21,000 for the three- and six-month periods ended March 31,
2003.

Total noninterest expenses remained stable for the quarter ended March 31,
2003, and decreased $131,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2003
compared to the same period in 2002.  Salaries and benefits decreased
$37,000 and $112,000 as a result of normal pay increases offset by
decreased incentive pay in the three-and six-month period ended March 2003
compared to the three-and six-month period ended March 31, 2003.  Data
processing costs decreased $39,000 and $150,000 for the three-and six-month
period ended March 31, 2003 due to not having the additional costs
associated with changing our core processor in November 2001.  Other
operating expenses increased $64,000 and $75,000 for the three- and six-
month periods ended March 31, 2003, due to increased operating costs and
professional fees.

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 the Savings Bank are monetary in nature.  As a result,
interest rates have a more significant impact on the Savings Bank'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 July 2001, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued
Statements (SFAS) No. 141, "Accounting for Business Combinations" and No.
142, "Accounting for Goodwill and Intangible Assets."  These Statements
will have no material effect on the Company at this time since it has not
been involved in a "business combination" subject to SFAS No. 141 and does
not have goodwill or other intangible assets subject to SFAS No. 142.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which amends SFAS No. 121 by
addressing business segments accounted for as a discontinued operation
under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30.  This Statement is
effective beginning July 1, 2002.  The effect of this Statement on the
financial position and results of operations of the Company is not
material.

The FASB also recently issued SFAS No. 145 and SFAS No. 146.  SFAS 145
covers debt extinguishments and leases, and made some minor technical
corrections.  Gains and losses on extinguishments of debt, always treated
as an extraordinary item under a previous standard, will no longer be
considered extraordinary, except under very limited conditions.  If a
capital lease is modified to an operating, it will be treated as a sale-
leaseback instead of a new lease.  SFAS No. 146 covers accounting for costs
associated with exit or disposal activities, such as lease termination
costs or employee severance costs.  The Statement replaces Emerging Issues
Task Force (EITF) 94-3, and is to be applied prospectively to exit or
disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.  It requires these
costs to be recognized when they are incurred rather than at date of
commitment to an exit or disposal plan.  The Company does not expect the
effect of adoption of these Standards to be material.

On November 25, 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure
Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness
of Others (FIN No. 45) which expands on the accounting guidance of
Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and incorporates without change the provisions
of FASB Interpretation No. 34, which is being superseded.

FIN No. 45, which is applicable to public and non-public entities, will
significantly change current practice in the accounting for, and disclosure
of, guarantees. Each guarantee meeting the characteristics described in FIN
No. 45 is to be recognized and initially measured at fair value, which will
be a change from current practice for most entities. In addition,
guarantors will be required to make significant new disclosures, even if
the likelihood of the guarantor making payments under the guarantee is
remote, which represents another change from current general practice.

FIN No. 45's disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements
of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, while the
initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a
prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.
The Company has changed its method of accounting and financial reporting
for standby letters of credit by adopting the provisions of FIN No. 45
effective January 1, 2003.  There was no material impact of the adoption on
the financial statements.

ITEM 3.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a)   The registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial
officer have concluded, based upon their evaluation of the registrant's
disclosure controls and procedures as of April 23, 2003, that the
registrant's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b)   There have been no significant changes in the registrant's internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls
subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective
actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
