Eagle BancGroup, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and therefore do not include all information and disclosures 
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.  All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, 
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods reported,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have been included
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

2. Conversion

Under a Plan of Conversion (the 'Plan') adopted by the Board of Directors of
First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Bloomington ('First Federal') 
on November 21, 1995,  First Federal is simultaneously converting from a
federally-chartered mutual savings association to a federally-chartered
capital stock savings association and issuing its common stock to Eagle
BancGroup, Inc., the 'Holding Company'. The Plan was amended and restated on 
February 13, 1996, March 12, 1996 and April 29, 1996.  The Holding Company is
simultaneously offering for sale Common Stock of the Holding Company in a
subscription and community offering expected to conclude in June, 1996.  A 
Prospectus dated May 13, 1996 details the subscription and community
offering.  The charter conversion, the issuance of First Federal stock to
the Holding Company and the offer for sale of Holding Company stock is 
referred to as the 'Conversion'.

Separate financial statements of the Holding Company have not been included
because it will not engage in material transactions until after the Conversion.
The Holding Company, which has been inactive to date, has no significant
assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses or contingent liabilities.

3. SFAS 122

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122, 'Accounting for
Mortgage Servicing Rights' was adopted as of January 1, 1996 resulting in
the recognition of a servicing asset related to loans sold of $21,000 in the
first quarter of 1996.  No adjustment to 1995 results was made as the
statement was not retroactively adopted.

4. Earnings Per Share and Dividends

The Company has yet to issue stock pending completion of the Conversion
(Footnote 2).  No earnings per share or dividend information is applicable.


Eagle BancGroup, Inc.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL. The company's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1996
was $34,000 compared to net income for the three months ended March 31, 1995
of $65,000.  The decline in income was primarily due to a decrease in the
interest rate spread and an increase in non-interest expense.

NET INTEREST INCOME.  For the three months ended March 31, 1996, net
interest income decreased to $696,000 from $702,000 for the same period in
1995.  Interest income increased to $2,598,000 for the first three months of
1996 from $2,340,000 for the same period in 1995 while interest expense
increased to $1,902,000 from $1,638,000 for the same periods in 1996 and
1995, respectively.

The interest rate spread (the rate earned on average interest earning assets
minus the rate paid on average interest bearing liabilities) decreased to
1.65% for the first three months of 1996 from 2.29% for the first three
months of 1995.  The net interest margin (net interest income divided by 
average interest earning assets) decreased to 1.92% from 2.17% during the 
same periods in 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Average interest earning assets increaed $13,958,000 to $145,445,000 for the
first quarter of 1996 from the same period in 1995 while the yield on average
interest earning assets decreased .04% to 7.18% in the first quarter of 1996
from the same period in 1995. The increase in interest earning assets in 1996
from 1995 was due to the 1995 marketing effort to attract new deposits and 
the sale, in the fourth quarter of 1995, of a large commercial property
previously held as real estate owned. The funds generated were invested
primarily in mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations
and government securities. The average balance of total investments increased
to $56,153,000 for the first three months of 1996 from $45,817,000 for the
first three months of 1995.

Average total deposits increased to $138,200,000 for the first three months of
1996 from $129,886,000 in the first three months of 1995 due to the Company's
efforts to increase certificate of deposit balances by matching local 
competitor's terms on certain certificates during the first six months of 
1995.  While the marketing effort was successful in attracting new deposits,
the rate paid on average total deposits increased to 5.54% for the three 
months ended March 31, 1996 from 4.94% for the first three months of 1995.
Also during the first quarter of 1995, the Company had average FHLB advances
of $4,649,000 while no funds were borrowed during the first three months of
1996.  Interest expense on the FHLB advances in 1995 was $74,000.

All loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more are non-accrual and
are considered non-performing.  Interest income of $7,000 was recognized on
non-performing loans in the three months ended March 31, 1996.  An additional
$10,000 would have been recognized on an accrual basis.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES.  The provision for loan losses was $15,000 for
both the first three months of 1996 and 1995.  For both three-month periods,
the provision for loan losses was computed as the amount necessary to bring 
the ending allowance to a level deemed adequate to absorb estimated future 
losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses was
$905,000 or 1.00% of total loans at March 31, 1996 compared to $865,000 or
 .99% of total loans at March 31, 1995.  At December 31, 1995, the allowance 
for loan losses was $907,000 or 1.01% of total loans.  In the first three
months of 1996, the allowance was adjusted for the $15,000 provision for loan
losses, charge-offs of $18,000 and recoveries of $1,000 resulting in the 
allowance total of $905,000 at March 31, 1996.  Non-performing loans were
$684,000 or .76% of total loans at March 31, 1996 compared to $485,000 or
 .54% of total loans at 1995

NON-INTEREST INCOME.  Non-interest income increased to $113,000 in the first
quarter of 1996 from $96,000 the first quarter of 1995.  Gains on loans sold
increased to $38,000 in the first three months of 1996 from $3,000 in the 
same period in 1995 as mortgage loan originations increased to $8,264,000 
during the first three months of 1996 from $2,110,000 for the same period in
1995.  In addition, in 1996, $21,000 was recognized as a servicing asset 
related to loans sold as a result of the adoption of SFAS 122, while no
adjustment to 1995 results was made.  Loan fees and deposit account fees both
increased $5,000 in the first three months of 1996 from the same period in
1995.  In the first quarter of 1995, $36,000 was recognized as income as the
result of a reduction in the valuation allowance for loans held for sale.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE.  Non-interest expense increased to $843,000 for the
first three months of 1996 from $688,000 for the same period in 1995.  In
the first three months of 1995, income of $93,000 was recognized on real
estate owned operations.  The large commercial property included in real
estate owned, which generated the rental income in early 1995, was sold in
the fourth quarter of 1995.  A market value adjustment of $13,000 was
expensed in the first three months of 1996 on loans held for sale compared 
to a gain in the first three months of 1995 included in non-interest income.
Marketing expense increased to $36,000 in the first three months of 1996 from
$10,000 in the same period in 1995 due to increased advertising, focusing on
home mortgage lending and customer service.

In addition, comparing the first three months of 1996 to the same period in
1995, data processing and ATM service charges increased $18,000 due to
increased transaction volumes processed and small price increases and FDIC
premium expense increased $10,000 due to increased deposit levels.  Partially
offsetting the increased expense items was compensation expense, which
decreased to $377,000 in the first three months of 1996 from $404,000 in the
first three months of 1995 due to staff changes.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE.  For the three months ended March 31, 1995, income tax
expense of $30,000 was recorded compared to an income tax benefit of $15,000
for the same period in 1996 due to changes in pre-tax income.  The effective
rate for both periods was 32%.

Results of operations for the three months March 31, 1996 may not be
indicative of what the results of operations will be for all of 1996.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets at March 31, 1996 increased to $151,806,000 from $150,974,000
at December 31, 1995 due to an increase in deposits from $138,396,000 at 
year-end to $139,426,000 at March 31, 1996.  Investment securities increased
$1,521,000 to $54,707,000 at March 31, 1996 from December 31, 1995 funded by
the increase in deposits and decreased cash and short-term investments, which
were $1,926,000 at March 31, 1996 compared to $3,900,000 at year-end.  Net 
loans also increased to $89,676,000 at March 31, 1996 from $88,786,000 at
December 31, 1995.

Savings institutions are required by regulation to maintain minimum levels of
capital as measured by three capital-to-assets ratios: Risk-based capital to
risk weighted assets of 8%; core capital to adjusted tangible assets of 3%
and tangible core capital to tangible assets of 1.50%.  At March 31, 1996,
the Company's ratios were 15.52%, 7.64% and 7.64%, respectively.  At December
31, 1995, the ratios were 15.78%, 7.73% and 7.73%, respectively.

A minimum liquidity ratio of 5%, calculated as the ratio of liquid assets
(cash, short-term investments and certain long-term investments) to deposits
and certain borrowed funds, must be maintained by savings institutions.  At
March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the liquidity ratio was 12.41% and
12.79%, respectively.

At March 31, 1996, commitments for loan originations and loans in process
totaled $1,035,000 while unused lines of credit amounted to $2,435,000.
Funds to meet these commitments are available from scheduled principal and
interest payments on loans, mortgage-backed and investment securities and
new deposits.  Funds are primarily invested in residential mortgage loans, 
indirect automobile loans and mortgage-backed securities and are also used
for deposit interest payments, maturities and withdrawals.
