             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Penn Federal Savings Bank
  401(k) Plan Trustees:

We have audited the accompanying  statement of net assets available for benefits
of the Penn Federal Savings Bank 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of June 30, 2005, and
the related  statement of changes in net assets  available  for benefits for the
year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements based on our audit.

We conducted  our audit in accordance  with the standards of the Public  Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial  statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audit  provides  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Penn Federal
Savings  Bank  401(k)  Plan as of June 30,  2005,  and the changes in net assets
available  for benefits for the year then ended in  conformity  with  accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audit was  conducted  for the  purpose  of  forming  an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held
at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information
required by the  Department of Labor's Rules and  Regulations  for Reporting and
Disclosure  under the Employee  Retirement  Income  Security  Act of 1974.  This
supplemental  schedule  is the  responsibility  of the  Plan's  management.  The
supplemental  schedule has been subjected to the auditing  procedures applied in
the audit of the 2005 basic financial  statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated  in all  material  respects  in  relation  to the  2005  basic  financial
statements taken as a whole.

As dicussed  further in note 7 of the  financial  statements,  the Penn  Federal
Savings Bank 401(k) Plan was merged with the PennFed  Financial  Services,  Inc.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan effective July 1, 2005.

                      PENN FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK 401(k) PLAN

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                             June 30, 2005 and 2004

(1)   Plan Description

      The  following  description  of the Penn Federal  Savings Bank 401(k) Plan
      (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to
      the  Plan  document  for  a  more  complete   description  of  the  Plan's
      provisions.  The  Plan  is  subject  to the  provisions  of  the  Employee
      Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

      (a)   General

            The Plan was established  January 1, 1990 as a defined  contribution
            plan.  Employees  become  eligible  to  participate  in the  Plan on
            January  1 or  July  1,  immediately  after  obtaining  age  21  and
            completing  1,000 hours of service at Penn Federal Savings Bank (the
            Bank).

      (b)   Contributions

            (a)   Salary Deferral Contributions - An eligible employee may elect
                  to have a percentage of compensation  contributed to this Plan
                  on a pre-tax salary  reduction  basis. A participant may elect
                  to  defer  between  1% and 15% of their  compensation  under a
                  Salary   Reduction   Agreement  to  the  Plan.   Additionally,
                  participants   may  allocate  their   contributions  to  eight
                  different  investment funds and to the common stock of PennFed
                  Financial Services,  Inc. (PennFed).  This contribution amount
                  is limited by the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) on a pretax
                  basis to $14,000 and  $13,000 in 2005 and 2004,  respectively.
                  In addition, certain eligible participants can make "catch-up"
                  contributions  if the maximum amount of regular  contributions
                  are  made  and the  participant  is age 50 or  older,  thereby
                  increasing the total elective  deferrals to $18,000 or $16,000
                  for 2005 and 2004, respectively.

            (b)   Vesting - Participants are always vested with respect to their
                  contributions  plus  actual  earnings  thereon.  Vesting  with
                  respect to the Bank's matching  contributions  is 20% per year
                  of service and 100% vesting after 5 years.

            (c)   The Plan was amended July 1, 2004 to provide for a Safe Harbor
                  Nonelective  contribution  of 6% of compensation as defined in
                  the Plan.  The  amount of the  contribution  for the plan year
                  ended June 30, 2005 was $641,003. Participants are always 100%
                  vested in the Safe Harbor Nonelective contributions.

      (c)   Participant Loans

            Loans  are made for  hardship  situations  only.  Each  loan must be
            adequately  secured and the loan  repayment  must be made before any
            distribution of retirement benefits.  Principal and interest is paid
            ratably through payroll deductions.

      (d)   Participant Accounts

            Individual  accounts are maintained for each Plan participant.  Each
            participant's account is credited with the participant contribution,
            the Bank's matching  contributions  and the Safe Harbor  Nonelective
            contribution.  Allocations  are  based on  participant  earnings  or
            account  balances,  as defined.  The benefit to which participant is
            entitled is the  benefit  that can be  provided  from  participant's
            vested account.


                                       5                             (Continued)

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                             June 30, 2005 and 2004

      (e)   Benefit Payments

            Participants or their designated  beneficiary,  may elect to receive
            benefit  distributions  in either  one  lump-sum  payment;  or equal
            monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual installments,  equal to the total
            value of their  separate  accounts upon  termination  of employment,
            disability or death.

            During   employment   and  in  the  event  of  financial   hardship,
            participants may request  payments of their account value;  however,
            this  distribution  cannot exceed the amount required to relieve the
            hardship.   Such   payment  is  subject  to  approval  by  the  Plan
            administrator.

(2)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      (a)   Basis of Presentation

            The  financial  statements  of the Plan  have  been  prepared  on an
            accrual basis and present the net assets  available for benefits and
            the changes in those net assets.

      (b)   Use of Estimates

            In preparing plan financial  statements,  estimates and  assumptions
            have been made relating to the  reporting of assets and  liabilities
            and changes  therein,  and the  disclosure of contingent  assets and
            liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with
            U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

      (c)   Risks and Uncertainties

            Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The Plan utilizes
            various investment instruments including the common stock of PennFed
            Financial  Services,  Inc. and mutual funds.  As a result,  interest
            rates have a more significant  impact on the Plan's performance than
            do 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 as measured by the  consumer  price
            index.  Investment  securities,  in general,  are exposed to various
            risks such as interest rate,  credit, and overall market volatility.
            Due  to  the  level  of  risk  associated  with  certain  investment
            securities,  it is reasonably possible that changes in values of the
            investment  securities  will  occur in the near  term and that  such
            changes  could  materially   affect  the  amounts  reported  in  the
            financial statements.

      (d)   Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

            Investments  in mutual  funds  consisting  of the Basic  Value Fund,
            Capital  Fund,  CMA Money Fund,  Corporate  Intermediate  Bond Fund,
            Global  Allocation  Fund,  Fundamental  Growth  Fund and Ready Asset
            Trust Fund were  managed by Merrill  Lynch (ML) and held by Frontier
            Trust  Company.  Investments  in mutual funds  consisting of the MFS
            Emerging  Growth Fund and  Massachusetts  Investors  Trust Fund were
            managed  by   Massachusetts   Financial   Services   Company  (MFS).
            Investments in mutual funds and  investments in PennFed common stock
            are valued and  recorded  at market  value as  determined  by quoted
            market  prices,  which  represent  the net asset value of the shares
            held by the Plan at the end of the year. The Plan is valued at least
            quarterly   and   participants'   accounts  are   credited   with  a
            proportional share of investment income.  Additionally,  investments
            are priced daily.


                                       6                             (Continued)

            date.  There were no material  unsettled  trades at June 30, 2005 or

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                             June 30, 2005 and 2004

(4)   Related Parties

      Employees of the Bank, who may also be participants  of the Plan,  perform
      certain  administrative  functions on behalf of the Plan. No such employee
      receives  compensation  from the Plan. At June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Plan
      held 54,853 and 50,020  shares,  respectively,  of common stock of PennFed
      Financial  Services  Inc., the parent of Penn Federal  Savings Bank,  with
      cost basis of $638,962 and $565,263,  respectively.  During the year ended
      June 30, 2005,  the Plan  recorded  dividend  income of $11,209 from these
      shares. In October 2004, PennFed declared a 2-for-1 split in the form of a
      100% stock  dividend,  paid to the  shareholders  on October 29, 2004. The
      dividend was paid from  authorized but unissued  shares of common stock of
      PennFed and the par value of the stock was not affected by the split.

(5)   Plan Termination

      Although it has not  expressed  any  intention  to do so, the Bank has the
      right under the Plan to discontinue its  contributions  at any time and to
      terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of the
      termination  of the Plan,  all  participants  automatically  become  fully
      vested in their  accounts,  no further  allocations  shall be made, and no
      eligible   employee   shall  become  a  participant   after  the  date  of
      termination.

(6)   Tax Status

      The  Internal  Revenue  Service  issued its latest  opinion  letter  dated
      January  29,  2004  to  BISYS  Retirement  Services,  the  sponsor  of the
      prototype  document,  which states that the Plan and its underlying  trust
      qualify under the applicable  provisions of the Code and,  therefore,  are
      exempt  from  federal  income  taxes.  The  Company  has  not  received  a
      determination letter issued directly to the Plan.

(7)   Subsequent Event

      Effective  July 1, 2005,  the Plan was merged with the  PennFed  Financial
      Services, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan.
