NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

GENERAL

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Penfed Bancorp, Inc. (the
"Corporation") and Pendleton Federal Savings Bank (the subsidiary, "Savings
Bank") have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-QSB
and therefore do not include certain information or footnotes necessary for the
presentation of financial position in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.  However, in the opinion of management, the consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments (which consist of normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the unaudited
periods.  The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the
entire year.  The consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the
year ended December 31, 1995.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

In May 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 122,
Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, an amendment to SFAS 65. The Company
elected to adopt SFAS 122 for its financial statement reporting in the first
quarter of 1996. SFAS 122 prohibits retroactive application. Accordingly, the
Company's financial statement reporting for the year of 1995 was accounted for
under the original SFAS 65. As a consequence, the Company's 1996 results are not
directly comparable to the results of 1995. Net income for 1996 was increased by
approximately $15,000 as a result of the adoption.



                                       5

 
Mortgage Servicing Rights continued


FAS 122 eliminates the accounting distinction between servicing rights acquired
through purchase transactions and those acquired through origination activities.
Recognition of mortgage servicing rights related to loan origination activities
was not permitted for periods prior to the adoption of FAS 122. When a mortgage
banking enterprise purchases or originates a mortgage loan with a definitive
plan to sell the loan and retain the mortgage servicing rights, FAS 122 requires
that a portion of the loan be allocated to the mortgage servicing rights based
on its fair value relative to the fair value of the loan including the mortgage
servicing rights. To determine the fair value of the servicing rights created
during 1995, the Company used the market prices of comparable servicing sale
contracts when available, or alternatively, a valuation model that calculates
the present value of estimated future cash flows. The estimates of future cash
flows are based on assumptions that market participants would use in estimating
future net servicing income. These assumptions included estimates of the cost of
servicing per loan, the discount rate, float rate, and inflation rate, ancillary
income per loan, prepayment speeds and default rates.

Mortgage servicing rights are amortized over the estimated life of the related
loans in proportion to estimated net servicing income.

To evaluate potential impairment at the end of each quarter, the
postimplementation mortgage servicing portfolio is disaggregated based on its
predominant risk characteristics.  The Company has determined those risk
characteristics to be loan type and interest rate.  The resulting segments of
the portfolio are then valued using the same model as was originally used to
determine the fair value at origination using current assumptions.  The
calculated value is then compared with the book value of each segment to
determine if a reserve for impairment is required.

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

General

The primary business of Pendleton Federal Savings Bank is the origination of
residential real estate loans and funding such loans through deposits and other
borrowings.  The largest component of the Bank's net income is net interest
income, which is the difference between interest income and interest expense.
Consequently, the Bank's earnings are primarily dependent on its interest
income, which is determined by (1) the difference ("interest rate spread")
between rates of interest earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on
interest-bearing liabilities, and (2) the relative amounts of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Because most deposit accounts react more quickly to market interest rate
movements than do traditional mortgage loans, sharp increases in rates can
adversely affect the Bank's earnings over time.


Financial Condition

Total assets increased by 7.8% during the quarter ended September 30, 1996.
Loans receivable and investment securities increased 7.9% and  47.9%,
respectively.  Mortgage-backed securities increased 13.3%.  Deposits increased
1.7% and Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased 121.5%.

Due to the continuing marketing efforts of the Bank to take advantage of
opportunities for lending growth in its market areas, the Bank's loans
receivable balance increased during the third quarter.  Fixed rate loans are
generally sold in the secondary market; therefore their origination does not
result in increases to the Bank's loan portfolio.  During the quarter, the Bank
was able to increase its loans receivable balance by originating adjustable rate
mortgage loans that are retained in the Bank's loan portfolio. Future increases
in the Bank's loans receivable balances will be funded through increased
deposits or Federal Home Loan Bank advances, if required.  Investment securities
increased due to a purchase of a SBA pool, a FHLMC pool, and a municipal bond.

                                       7

 
The Bank experienced an increase in deposits due to new depositors opening
accounts.  Management will continue to monitor deposit levels in light of
prevailing interest rates and other factors and may choose to increase deposit
rates in the future to preserve market share or obtain required levels of cash
flows.  To the extent that the Bank elects to increase deposit rates in order to
attract and/or maintain deposits and to fund future loan growth and other
operating needs, interest income may be adversely affected.  Currently, however,
management does not anticipate the necessity of offering above-market interest
rates on deposits.

Stockholders' equity decreased from 19.2% of assets at December 31, 1995 to
17.4% of assets at September 30, 1996.  This is due primarily to the increase in
loans and treasury stock purchases.

Although the level of nonperforming loans increased for the third quarter as
compared to the same quarter of the prior year, (see table below) overall the
Bank continued to experience low loan losses.  The following table sets forth
information with respect to the Bank's nonperforming assets for the periods
indicated.  During the periods shown, the Bank had no restructured loans with
the meaning of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 15.

The Bank's total nonperforming loans and total nonperforming assets at September
30, 1996 increased 14.1% and 3.7%, respectively, as compared to September 30,
1995. Nonperforming loans at September 30, 1996 increased due to a general
increase in delinquencies, however all nonperforming loans are collateralized by
residential property. Based on management's review of the value of the
underlined collateral and other factors, no losses are expected.

The Bank's allowance for loan losses increased $18,000 from September 30, 1995
to September 30, 1996.  An additional $6,000 was deposited into the provision
for loan losses during the third quarter in order to increase the ratio of
allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans. (See "Allowance for Loan
Losses" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996, Compared to September 30, 1995.

The Corporation's net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 decreased
128.0% as compared to the same quarter of 1995 due to a increase in interest
expense of 2.4%, an increase in other expenses of 49.6%, offset by an increase
in interest income of 14.9% and an in increase in noninterest income of 92.6%,
and an decreased in income tax expense of 95.9%.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased by  31.8%.  Total
interest income increased 14.9%, due to an increase in the volume of outstanding
loans. Total interest expense increased 2.4% as a result of an increase in the
effective rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, and also due to the
increase in the balance of interest-bearing deposits.

Noninterest income increased 92.6% for the three months ended September 30, 1996
as compared to the same quarter of 1995.  The primary reason for this increase
is Freddie Mac service income, which increased 130.8%.

Other expenses increased by 49.6%  for the three months ended September 30, 1996
as compared to the same quarter of 1995 primarily as a result of a special
asessment levied by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation pursuant to
recently enacted legislation designed to recapitalize the Savings Association
Insurance Fund ("SAIF").  The asessment, which was levied on all institutions
with deposits insured by the SAIF, was set by the FDIC at 0.65% of SAIF-insured
deposits as of March 31, 1995 and will be paid November 27, 1996.  The effect of
this assessment was to reduce the Company's net income for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996 by $114,183, or $.36 per share.  As a result of this
legislation, the Company's deposit insurance premiums will decline significantly
commencing on January 1, 1997.

                                       9


The increase in other expenses, offset by the increase in net interest income
along with the increase in noninterest income, combined to result in a decrease
in income before income taxes of  115.8%.  Income taxes increased by 120.6% as
result of lower profits, due to the SAIF assessment.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996, Compared to September 30, 1995.

The Corporation's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
increased 44.3% as compared to the same quarter of 1995 due to an increase in
net interest income of 33.9% and an increase in noninterest income of 166.0%,
offset by an increase in other expenses of 38.9% and an increase in income tax
expense of 47.0%.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increase by 34.0%.  Total
interest income increased 17.2%, due to an increase in the volume of outstanding
loans. Total interest expense increased 5.6% as a result of an increase in the
effective rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, and also due to the
increase in the balance of interest-bearing deposits.

Noninterest income increased 166.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
as compared to the same quarter of 1995.  The primary reason for the increase is
Freddie Mac service income, which increased 174.2%.

Other expenses increased by 38.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
as compared to the same period of 1995. Professional services, principally legal
and accounting fees, increased 59.2% due to increased reporting requirements
associated with being a public company.  The effect of the special assessment
levied by the FDIC reduced the Company's net income for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 by $114,183, or $.35 per share.

The increase in net interest income along with the increase in noninterest
income, offset by the increase in other expenses, combined to result in an
increase in income before income taxes of 45.9%.  Income taxes increased by
47.0% as a result of higher profits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Pendleton Federal is required by federal regulations to maintain specified
levels of "liquid" assets consisting of cash and other eligible investments. The
current level of liquidity required by the OTS is 5% of the sum of net
withdrawable savings and borrowings due within one year. The Bank's regulatory
liquidity at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 was 5.96% and 6.24%,
respectively. Management believes that the Bank has an adequate level of
liquidity to meet anticipated cash flow needs.

Capital Resources

The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") imposes regulations which provide that
savings associations must maintain certain levels of capital.  The regulations
include a leverage limit, a tangible capital requirement and a risk-based
capital requirement.  Specifically, the regulations provide that savings
associations must maintain tangible capital equal to 1.5% of adjusted total
assets, core capital equal to 3% of adjusted total assets and a combination of
core and supplementary capital equal to 8% of risk weighted assets.  Pendleton
Federal is in compliance with these capital regulations.

The OTS capital regulations also require savings associations to maintain
capital based on the amount of their exposure to losses from changes in market
interest rates ("interest rate risk").  The calculation performed by the OTS
indicates that the Bank has no additional capital requirement resulting from
excessive exposure to interest rate risk.  The OTS has also proposed an
amendment to its core capital requirement to conform to the leverage capital
requirements applicable to national banks.  The Bank does not expect such
amendment, if adopted, to cause the Bank to fall below its capital requirements.

The following table summarizes the Bank's capital requirements and position at
September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 in accordance with the capital
standards imposed by the OTS.  Amounts are in thousands.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes presented herein have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which
require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of
historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing
power of money over time due to inflation.  The impact of inflation is reflected
in the increased cost of the Company's operations.  Unlike most industrial
companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in
nature.  As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company's
performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation.  Interest rates
do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price
of goods and services.

Effect of Implementing New Accounting Standards

See "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of new
accounting standards.

BIF-SAIF Premium Disparity

On September 30, 1996, Federal legislation was enacted and signed into law which
provides a resolution to the disparity in the Bank Insurance Fund and SAIF
premiums.  In particular, the SAIF-issued institutions, such as the Bank, will
pay a one-time assessment of 65.7 cents on every $100 of deposits held at 
March 31, 1995. Such payment is due no later than November 27, 1996. As a result
of the new law the Company will be required to pay approximately $114,000.
Assuming the special assessment is tax deductible, the cost, net of income tax
benefits, will approximately $75,000. The Company recorded the one-time charge
to earnings during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. Also, beginning January
1, 1997 the current annual minimum SAIF premium of 23 basis points will be
reduced to approximately 6.5 basis points.

Asset/Liability Management

Pendleton Federal's future financial performance depends to a large extent on
how successful the Bank is in limiting the sensitivity of the Bank's earnings
and net asset value to changes in interest rates.  Such sensitivity may be
analyzed by examining the amount by which the market value of the Bank's
portfolio equity changes given an immediate and sustained change in interest
rates.  At June 30, 1996, (the most recent report available) the Bank's market
value of portfolio equity would decrease by $713,000 or 13.0% and increase by
$650,000 or 12.0% given a 200 basis point immediate and sustained increase or
decrease, respectively, in interest rates.  Based on this analysis, management
believes that the Bank has an acceptable level of interest rate risk and is
adequately protected from the effects of interest rate fluctuations.

Management believes that interest rate risk is one of the most significant
factors affecting the Bank's future ability to generate earnings consistently.
Accordingly,  management has focused on strategies to reduce the Bank's interest
risk in recent years.  These strategies include the origination of its portfolio
of adjustable rate mortgage loans with greater interest rate sensitivity than
long term fixed rate mortgage loans, the sale of long term fixed rate loans in
the secondary market and increasing the balance of transaction accounts.
Sources of non-interest income such as loan servicing fees and service charges
on deposits are also emphasized.
