     Total impaired loans at March 31, 1997 were $2.9 million.

     In addition to residential and commercial mortgage loans and consumer loans
     90 days or more delinquent, which totaled $2.7 million, the Bank identified
     as impaired one loan totaling $192,000 to a borrower who also had a
     commercial real estate loan that was greater than 90 days delinquent as of
     March 31, 1997. The $192,000 loan was current at March 31, 1997. Total
     indebtedness of this borrower was $966,000 at March 31, 1997. The
     indebtedness is secured by a commercial building located in Boone County,
     Illinois which is being leased to retail businesses. The building was
     approximately 33% leased at March 31, 1997. HomeBanc recently initiated
     foreclosure based upon a recent slowing of the lease- up process. A reserve
     of $45,000 had been established for this borrower at December 31, 1995.
 
     Included in impaired loans were two participating interests totaling $1.4
     million at March 31, 1997 that were ninety days delinquent but which
     continued on an accrual basis. The participating interests represent
     interests in loans to a single borrower who has filed for bankruptcy
     protection under Chapter 11 and are secured by multi-family properties
     located in Southern Wisconsin. The cash flow from both properties is
     currently being diverted to a bankruptcy trustee for distribution. Payments
     were received during the first quarter that maintained the loans at an
     approximate 90 day delinquent status. It is anticipated that additional
     funds will be released to the participating banks as senior secured
     creditors and that such funds will return the loans to a current status and
     maintain scheduled payments. Based upon the current and historical lease
     performance of the buildings, their current physical condition and the
     economic condition of the area in which the buildings are located, accrual
     status was considered appropriate.

 
     A total of $36,000 in interest income was recognized during the first three
     months of 1997 on impaired loans. A total of $31,000 was recognized on the
     two delinquent participations discussed above. An additional $26,000 of
     interest income would have been recognized had the nonaccruing impaired
     loans remained current. The average recorded investment in impaired loans
     during the three months ended March 31,1997 was approximately $3.0 million.

     The Bank has no restructured loans at March 31, 1997.


(3)  EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were
     computed by dividing net income by 1,183,433 and 1,171,311, respectively,
     representing the average number of common and common equivalent shares
     (using the treasury share method) outstanding. The Company's equivalent
     shares consist entirely of common stock options.

 
(4)  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
     No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which is required to be adopted on December
     31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to change the method
     currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior
     periods. Under the new requirements for calculating primary earnings per
     share, the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact is
     expected to result in an increase in primary earnings per share for the
     first quarter ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 of $.02 and $.01 per
     share, respectively. The impact of Statement 128 on the calculation of
     fully diluted earnings per share for these quarters is not expected to be
     material.


(5)  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     The Company's Board of Directors declared a split of the Company's common
     stock at the April 22, 1997 Annual Meeting. The split is payable on or
     about May 30, 1997 to shareholders of record on May 9, 1997. Under the
     terms of the stock split, HomeCorp shareholders will receive one additional
     share for each two shares held on the record date.

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


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used in this Form 10-Q and in future filings by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases or other
public or shareholder communications, and in oral statements made with the
approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "will likely
result", "are expected to", "will continue", "is anticipated", "estimate",
"project" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995.  Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, that

those presently anticipated or projected.  The Company wishes to caution readers
not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date made.  The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors
listed below could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause
the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any

looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such
statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.



                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company's March 31, 1997 balance sheet reflects the continuing focus upon
community banking.  The consumer loan portfolio increased $1.6 million, or 2%
during first quarter 1997 while the commercial business loan portfolio increased
$441,000 or 7%.  Consumer growth was largely due to the origination of indirect
automobile loans.  All such loans are underwritten and approved by HomeBanc loan
officers.  Growth was also generated in home equity and improvement loans, a
result of a targeted loan promotion during the first quarter of 1997.  The
Bank's involvement with the small business community continues to provide steady
growth in the business loan portfolio. Relationships established through small
business lending generally result in the Bank providing additional services as
well, such as checking and related services.

The mortgage loan portfolio declined $1.3 million, or less than 1% during the
first quarter of 1997.  A $1.8 million participation secured by a motel in
southern Wisconsin was repaid during the first quarter of 1997.  Included with
mortgage loans is the Bank's construction portfolio, which increased 

 
$968,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1997. The Bank intends to
increase the construction loan portfolio further during the summer months of
1997. The Bank continues to sell all fixed interest rate mortgage loans
originated as well as certain adjustable rate loans.

Investment in real estate developments decreased $31,000 during the first
quarter.  The Company sold its interest in two real estate development
partnerships during the first quarter.  The partnerships each contained a single
developed commercial lot.  As of March 31, 1997, the Company's investment in
real estate development represented a single project located in suburban Chicago
containing both residential and commercial lots.  The completion of the final 90
residential lots was initiated during the first quarter and management
anticipates the lots being available for sale during 1997.

Investment in foreclosed real estate increased $63,000 to $9.7 million.  The
Company did enter a sales contract on a parcel of land located in Michigan. No
loss is anticipated from the resolution of the property.

Core deposits of the Bank, defined as checking, NOW, Money Market and passbook
savings, increased 3% during first quarter 1997, representing $2.3 million.  The
Bank continues to focus upon the generation of what are considered core banking
relationships.  The continuing growth in business lending is a benefit to core
deposit growth as well as the ongoing retail deposit promotions.  Deposits in
the aggregate declined $1.2 million during first quarter, with the declines
noted primarily in intermediate term (30 to 36 month) certificates of deposit.

The Bank's suit in the United States Court of Federal Claims against the United
States for breach of contract with regard to the utilization as capital of the
supervisory goodwill, which was created when the Bank acquired failing
institutions in the 1980's, has been stayed pending the outcome of an appeal in
another case that was heard by the U. S. Supreme Court.  While the Supreme Court
ruled favorably on the issue in the other case, the Company's suit has yet to be
heard.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 VS 1996:

Net income increased 8% during the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the 
same quarter of 1996. The Company experienced improvements in most areas of its 
operation as compared to the prior year.

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

Net interest income totaled $2.4 million for the first quarter 1997, an
increase of 6% from $2.3 million in the prior year. The Company's net interest 
margin increased to 3.12% during the first quarter of 1997 from 2.90% during 
first quarter 1996. The asset yield increased to 7.83% from 7.64% while the 
Company's cost of funds decreased to 4.82% from 4.85%. The increased asset yield
resulted from consumer loan portfolio growth and increased yields in the 
mortgage and mortgage-backed securities portfolios. Consumer originations 
continue to provide portfolio growth, while the equity line of credit portfolio 
provides an asset capable of immediately responding to changes in interest 
rates. The general level of interest rates increased in first quarter 1997. The 
Bank's consumer and mortgage loan portfolios benefited from this increase. The 
mortgage portfolio contains six month adjustable ARMS and construction loans 
which are both responsive to interest rate changes. The increased yield from the
mortgage-backed securities portfolio was the result of repricing of adjustable
rate securities and a general slowing of repayment activity, which benefits the
Bank's portfolio which has a net premium position. No mortgage-backed securities
were purchased during first quarter 1997 and 1996.

The decline in cost of funds is primarily the result of the shift within the 
deposit base into core deposits from longer term certificates of deposit. The 
cost of the Company's time deposits declined slightly to 5.84%, as compared to 
5.89% during the first quarter of 1996.

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

The Company established provisions for loan losses of $75,000 during first 
quarter 1997, a decrease from $115,000 during first quarter 1996. The decrease 
during 1997 is due to a slight reduction in total delinquencies


 
within the consumer portfolio and basically unchanged delinquencies within the 
mortgage portfolio. Consumer loans delinquent 30 or more days declined $76,000 
from December 31, 1996, and represented 0.4% of outstanding loans.

Non-Interest Income
- -------------------

Fees and service charges increased $73,000 or 18% in the first quarter of 1997 
as compared to first quarter 1996. Service charges increased $77,000, or 30% to 
a total of $273,000 for the first quarter of 1997. The increased fees reflect 
the growth experienced in the core deposit base of the Bank. The largest 
increases in service charge income were noted in checking related fees, both 
retail and commercial business.

Fee income received from the servicing of mortgage loans increased $18,000 to 
$132,000 during the first three months of 1997 from the same period of 1996. 
This increase was offset by a $14,000 increase in the amortization of mortgage 
servicing rights established under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
Number 122, which went into effect on January 1, 1996. The pronouncement 
requires the Bank to assign a value to the future servicing income for a loan 
when it is sold on a servicing retained basis. The value is capitalized on the 
Bank's balance sheet and amortized against the servicing income generated from 
the loans. Servicing rights relating to loans sold during 1996 and first quarter
1997 totaled $554,000 at March 31, 1997.

Income from real estate development increased to $61,000 for the three months 
ended March 31, 1997 from a minimal loss during 1996. The 1997 income is due 
primarily to the sale of single family lots and the sale of the Company's 
interest in two partnerships, each containing one developed commercial lot.

REO operations represent the net operating income from a shopping center 
foreclosed upon by the Bank. Operating income increased to $120,000 from 
$115,000 during the first quarter of 1997 as compared to first quarter 1996. 
Management continues to pursue the sale of the Center.

Non-Interest Expenses
- ---------------------

Operating expenses remained relatively stable, increasing by $13,000 in 1997 
from 1996. Deposit insurance premiums paid to the Federal Deposit Insurance 
Corporation declined $117,000, or 58% during the first quarter of 1997 from the 
first quarter of 1996 as a result of the recapitalization of the Savings 
Insurance Fund in the fourth quarter 1996 and a credit granted against first 
quarter 1997 premiums. The insurance premiums are expected to increase in the 
second quarter, although they should remain well below the premiums experienced 
during 1996.

Other expense increased $40,000, primarily due to legal costs incurred in the 
Bank's lawsuit involving the parcel of land in Michigan foreclosed upon by the 
Bank. The Bank is pursuing recovery of certain costs involved with the

 
property from its prior owners.

The Company established a $35,000 provision for real estate owned during first 
quarter 1997, which is included in non-interest operating expenses. The amount 
relates to a parcel of land located in Michigan. The provision was made based 
upon recent negotiations for sale of the property.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is generally regarded as the ability to generate sufficient cash flow 
to meet all present and future funding commitments. The Bank's primary sources 
of funds, or liquidity, are deposits, amortization, and prepayment of loan 
principal (including mortgage-backed and certain investment securities) 
operations and to a lesser extent, maturities of investment securities and the 
sale of available for sale securities.

The Bank's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of 
its operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. 
Operating activities consist of net income adjusted for non cash activity, and 
generated or provided $1.5 million in cash during the first quarter 1997. This 
compares to a use of $458,000 in cash during first quarter 1996. The primary 
differences between periods are increased deferred taxes and other liabilities 
of $845,000 in 1997 compared to $115,000 in 1996. The Company's deferred tax 
liability increased as a result of the sale of its interest in two real estate 
partnerships. Mortgage loans held for sale declined $119,000 in first quarter 
1997 compared to an increase of $557,000 during 1996. Origination of mortgage 
loans for sale were lower in first quarter 1997 than the year earlier period.

Investing activities used $185,000 in cash during 1997 and provided $902,000 in 
1996. Loan originations for the portfolio net of principal repayments used 
$768,000 in first quarter 1997. Repayments exceeded originations by $2.6 million
during first quarter 1996. Cash flows from the mortgage portfolio did decline 
somewhat between the years, partly due to slower prepayments and partly due to 
the continued decline of the fixed rate portion of the Bank's residential 
mortgage portfolio. Also, the Bank has increased its originations of loan 
products for portfolio, both mortgage and non-mortgage. Management continues to 
focus upon loan portfolio growth.

Financing activities used $560,000 in cash during 1997, primarily due to a $1.2 
million decline in deposits. First quarter 1996 financing activities provided 
$3.3 million in cash, largely due to an increase of $2.6 million in deposits 
during 1995. The focus of the Bank was generating core deposits in 1997, which 
it was successful in doing. Core deposits increased $2.3 million, or 3% in the 
first quarter 1997. Management believes the certificate of deposit pricing of 
the Bank is reasonable and competitive. The Bank did not attempt to match the 
higher rates offered in its marketplace on intermediate and longer term 
certificates of deposits and did experience a decline in these certificate of 
deposit classes. Management believes the reduction in cost of deposits and 
growth in core deposits outweighed the cost of deposit growth in the aggregate 
during first quarter 1997. Deposit pricing is reviewed continually in light of 
market movements and the Bank's demand for funding sources.
