This past year was a challenging year for HMN as slowed growth and credit quality
issues resulted in a decrease in net income from the prior year. The $8.4 million in net
income interrupted a string of three consecutive years of record annual net income
amounts for the Company. The decrease in net income in 2006 was due primarily to the
$6.2 million increase in the loan loss provision that was caused by an increase in loan
charge offs. We constantly strive to maintain the highest credit quality in our loan
portfolio. However, unintended results can and do occur due to changing credit and market conditions. The
majority of the loans that were charged off related to a single real estate and golf course development within our
market area. We believe that the charge offs experienced in 2006 were not systemic and are not indicative of the
overall quality of our commercial loan portfolio.

The flat interest rate yield curve that was experienced in 2006 was not ideal for the banking industry as long term
rates remained lower than short term interest rates for much of the year. The shape of the yield curve and the
increased competition for deposits increased the rates that customers demanded on their short term deposits and
lowered the rate that could be earned on long term loans and investments. In spite of this, our net interest margin
increased to 4.13%, a 33 basis point increase from the prior year, due in large part to the 1.0% increase in the
prime interest rate that occurred during the year. The increased interest margin was the primary reason that our
net interest income increased $2.9 million in 2006. Improvement in the financial performance of our core banking
business was also evident in the increased amount of fee and service charge income, which exceeded $3 million for
the first time in 2006.  

Increased competition for deposits and loans came not only from other banks and credit unions, but from
brokerages, insurance companies and equity funds. It is truly a consumer’s market for financial services. In
response to this competitive marketplace, we have allocated more human resources to our retail deposit and
commercial lending areas. While we have a commitment to the community bank model extending from our
northern most office in the St. Cloud area to our southern most branch in Marshalltown, Iowa, we believe that the
majority of our growth will continue to come from commercial lending and business relationships. In order to
develop and enhance some of these relationships, Home Federal obtained a preferred lending status from the U.S.
Small Business Administration in 2006 which allows us to streamline the underwriting process by making certain
underwriting decisions on behalf of the SBA. Because of this, we can expedite many of the small business loan
requests for our customers as speed is so important in today’s world.

The single family residential loan area experienced its second straight sluggish year in 2006 as increased interest
rates and competition for fewer customers created an environment where volume and margin both decreased. The
margins in the residential mortgage business have become razor thin and we continue to look for ways to adapt by
becoming more efficient through the use of improved technology without sacrificing the credit quality of the

2

loans originated. The Company continues to offer traditional secondary market eligible loans to our customers at
all of our retail branch offices. We have not offered sub-prime or interest only loans and we have no intention of
marketing to this segment of the mortgage market. We are optimistic that the profitability of the traditional
mortgage market will improve as market forces and cycles change.

New technology for both the retail and commercial customers continues to evolve outside the mortgage area and
we have embraced many of these changes. Electronic banking, debit/ATM cards, Internet based cash management
and remote deposit are creating significant efficiencies for the banking industry and convenience for our customers.
We also continue to develop our alternative energy and private banking niches. Our private banking offices in
Rochester and Edina provide a unique blend of high tech with a personal/concierge service attachment. We have
found that business professionals appreciate having the ability to call Home Federal and talk to someone as opposed
to getting lost in voicemail. Our alternative energy niche has primarily focused on the ethanol industry by providing
loans and deposit services for new and existing ethanol plants. We are a proponent of reducing our reliance on foreign
oil and have enjoyed watching the positive impact that the ethanol industry has had on rural America. 

I am proud to report Home Federal was recognized as the Rochester Chamber of Commerce “2006 Small Business
of the Year” – this award is given annually to a local business that demonstrates leadership in the community
through corporate and employee participation in, and support of, charitable organizations within the community.
In addition, the recipient shows commitment to client relations, investment in employees, business ethics, and
business growth. This award is a great testimony to how the Company is operated and to the involvement in the
community of our Rochester area employees. 

The Board and I extend our appreciation for the dedication and achievement of all of our employees, and for the
loyalty and opportunities given to us by our many customers. HMN continues as a mature 72 year old company
with a youthful passion committed to delivering solid returns to our shareholders and unsurpassed service to our
customers.

Sincerely,

Michael McNeil
President and CEO

HMN Financial, Inc. (HMN or the Company) is the stock
savings  bank  holding  company  for  Home  Federal  Savings
Bank (the Bank) which operates community retail banking
facilities and loan production offices in Minnesota and Iowa.
Eagle  Crest  Capital  Bank,  a  division  of  Home  Federal
Savings Bank, provides private banking services to a diverse
group of high net worth customers from offices in Edina and
Rochester, Minnesota.  The  earnings  of  the  Company  are
primarily  dependent  on  the  Bank’s  net  interest  income,
which is the difference between interest earned on loans and
investments,  and  the  interest  paid  on  interest-bearing
liabilities  such  as  deposits  and  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank
(FHLB) advances. The difference between the average rate of
interest  earned  on  assets  and  the  average  rate  paid  on
liabilities is the “interest rate spread”. Net interest income is
produced  when  interest-earning  assets  equal  or  exceed
interest-bearing liabilities and there is a positive interest rate
spread.  The  Company’s  interest  rate  spread  has  been
enhanced over the past several years by the increased level of
commercial  loans  placed  in  portfolio  and  the  increased
amount  of  lower  rate  deposit  products  such  as  checking,
savings  and  money  market  accounts.  Net  interest  income
and  net  interest  rate  spread  are  affected  by  changes  in
interest rates, the volume and mix of interest-earning assets
and  interest-bearing  liabilities,  and  the  level  of  non-
performing assets. The Company’s net income is also affected
by  the  generation  of  non-interest  income,  which  consists
primarily of gains or losses from the sale of securities, gains
from the sale of loans, fees for servicing mortgage loans, and

6

the  generation  of  fees  and  service  charges  on  deposit
accounts.  The  Bank  incurs  expenses  in  addition  to  interest
expense  in  the  form  of  salaries  and  benefits,  occupancy
expenses,  provisions  for  loan  losses  and  amortization  and
valuation  adjustments  on  mortgage  servicing  assets.  The
increased emphasis on commercial loans over the past several
years  has  increased  the  credit  risk  inherent  in  the  loan
portfolio and the provision for loan losses has increased due
to commercial loan charge offs. 

The earnings of financial institutions, such as the Bank, are
significantly affected by prevailing economic and competitive
conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government
monetary  and  fiscal  policies,  and  regulations  of  various
regulatory authorities. Lending activities are influenced by the
demand  for  and  supply  of  business  credit,  single  family  and
commercial properties, competition among lenders, the level of
interest rates and the availability of funds. Deposit flows and
costs of deposits are influenced by prevailing market rates of
interest on competing investments, account maturities and the
levels of personal income and savings.    

C r i t i c a l   A c c o u n t i n g   P o l i c i e s
Critical accounting policies are those policies that the Company’s
management believes are the most important to understanding the
Company’s financial condition and operating results. The Company
has identified the following three critical accounting policies that
management believes involve the most difficult, subjective, and/or
complex judgments that are inherently uncertain. Therefore, actual
financial  results  could  differ  significantly  depending  upon  the
assumptions, estimates and other factors used.  

Allowance for Loan Losses and Related Provision
The allowance for loan losses is based on periodic analysis of
the  loan  portfolio.  In  this  analysis,  management  considers
factors including, but not limited to, specific occurrences of
loan  impairment,  changes  in  the  size  of  the  portfolios,
national  and  regional  economic  conditions  such  as
unemployment  data,  loan  portfolio  composition,  loan
delinquencies,  local  construction  permits,  development
plans, local economic growth rates, historical experience and
observations made by the Company’s ongoing internal audit
and regulatory exam processes. Loans are charged off to the
extent  they  are  deemed  to  be  uncollectible.  The  Company
has established separate processes to determine the adequacy
of the loan loss allowance for its homogeneous single-family
and consumer loan portfolios and its non-homogeneous loan
portfolios. The determination of the allowance for the non-
homogeneous  commercial,  commercial  real  estate,  and
multi-family loan portfolios involves assigning standardized
risk  ratings  and  loss  factors  that  are  periodically  reviewed.
The  loss  factors  are  estimated  using  a  combination  of  the
Company’s  own  loss  experience  and  external  industry  data
and  are  assigned  to  all  loans  without  identified  credit
weaknesses.  For  each  non-performing  loan,  the  Company
also  performs  an  individual  analysis  of  impairment  that  is

based  on  the  expected  cash  flows  or  the  value  of  the  assets
collateralizing  the  loans  and  establishes  any  necessary
specific reserves. The determination of the allowance on the
homogeneous single-family and consumer loan portfolios is
calculated on a pooled basis with individual determination of
the allowance for all non-performing loans. The Company’s
policies  and  procedures  related  to  the  allowance  for  loan
losses are consistent with the Interagency Policy Statement
on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses that was issued
in December 2006.

The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is dependent
upon management’s estimates of variables affecting valuation,
appraisals of collateral, evaluations of performance and status,
and the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to
be  received  on  impaired  loans.  Such  estimates,  appraisals,
evaluations  and  cash  flows  may  be  subject  to  frequent
adjustments due to changing economic prospects of borrowers
or  properties.  The  estimates  are  reviewed  periodically  and
adjustments, if any, are recorded in the provision for loan losses
in the periods in which the adjustments become known. The
allowance is allocated to individual loan categories based upon
the relative risk characteristics of the loan portfolios and the
actual  loss  experience.  The  Company  increases  its  allowance
for loan losses by charging the provision for loan losses against
income. The methodology for establishing the allowance for
loan losses takes into consideration probable losses that have
been  identified  in  connection  with  specific  loans  as  well  as
losses in the loan portfolio for which specific reserves are not
required.  Although  management  believes  that  based  on
current conditions the allowance for loan losses is maintained
at  an  adequate  amount  to  provide  for  probable  loan  losses
inherent in the portfolio as of the balance sheet dates, future
conditions may differ substantially from those anticipated in
determining  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  and  adjustments
may be required in the future.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
The  Company  recognizes  as  an  asset  the  rights  to  service
mortgage loans for others, which are referred to as mortgage
servicing rights (MSRs). MSRs are capitalized at the relative
fair  value  of  the  servicing  rights  on  the  date  the  mortgage
loans are sold and are carried at the lower of the capitalized
amount, net of accumulated amortization, or fair value. MSRs
are capitalized and amortized in proportion to, and over the
period  of,  estimated  net  servicing  income.  Each  quarter  the
Company  evaluates  its  MSRs  for  impairment  in  accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
140.    Loan  type  and  interest  rate  are  the  predominant  risk
characteristics  of  the  underlying  loans  used  to  stratify  the
MSRs  for  purposes  of  measuring  impairment.  If  temporary
impairment exists, a valuation allowance is established for any
excess of amortized cost over the current fair value through a
charge to income. If the Company later determines that all or
a portion  of  the  temporary  impairment  no  longer  exists,  a

reduction of the valuation allowance is recorded as an increase
to  income.  The  valuation  is  based  on  various  assumptions,
including the estimated prepayment speeds and default rates
of the stratified portfolio. Changes in the mix of loans, interest
rates, prepayment speeds, or default rates from the estimates
used  in  the  valuation  of  the  mortgage  servicing  rights  may
have  a  material  effect  on  the  amortization  and  valuation  of
MSRs.  Management  believes  that  the  assumptions  used  and
the  values  determined  are  reasonable  based  on  current
conditions.  However,  future  economic  conditions  may  differ
substantially from those anticipated in determining the value
of the MSRs and adjustments may be required in the future.
The Company does not formally hedge its MSRs because they
are  hedged  naturally  by  the  Company’s  origination  volume.
Generally, as interest rates rise the origination volume declines
and the value of MSRs increases and as interest rates decline
the  origination  volume  increases  and  the  value  of  MSRs
decreases.  The  amount  of  MSRs  capitalized  continues  to
decline as the Company sells the servicing rights along with
the loans for the majority of its single family loans that are sold.   

Income Taxes
Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognized  for  the
future  tax  consequences  attributable  to  temporary
differences  between  the  financial  statement  carrying
amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective
tax  basis.  Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income
in  the  years  in  which  those  temporary  differences  are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income  in  the  period  that  includes  the  enactment  date.
These  calculations  are  based  on  many  complex  factors
including estimates of the timing of reversals of temporary
differences, the interpretation of federal and state income tax
laws, and a determination of the differences between the tax
and  the  financial  reporting  basis  of  assets  and  liabilities.
Actual  results  could  differ  significantly  from  the  estimates
and  interpretations  used  in  determining  the  current  and
deferred income tax liabilities.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of
FASB  Statement  No.  109 (FIN  48).  The  Company  adopted
FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. FIN 48 requires the use of
estimates to determine the amounts and probabilities of all
of  the  possible  outcomes  that  could  be  realized  upon  the
ultimate  settlement  of  a  tax  position  using  the  facts,
circumstances, and information available. The application of
FIN  48  requires  significant  judgment  in  arriving  at  the
amount  of  tax  benefits  to  be  recognized  in  the  financial
statements for a given tax position. It is possible that the tax
benefits  realized  upon  the  ultimate  resolution  of  a  tax
position  taken  by  the  Company  may  be  significantly
different from those estimated.

Net income was $8.4 million for the year ended December
31,  2006,  compared  to  $11.1  million  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 2005. Diluted earnings per common share for
the year ended December 31, 2006 were $2.10, compared to
$2.77  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2005.  Return  on
average assets was 0.86% and 1.12% and return on average
equity was 8.85% and 12.42% for the years ended December
31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

In comparing the year ended December 31, 2006 to the
year  ended  December  31,  2005,  net  interest  income
increased  $2.9  million  primarily  because  of  an  increase  in
interest rates and because of a change in the mix of funding
sources  away  from  brokered  deposits  to  less  expensive
checking, savings and money market deposits. The increased
emphasis on commercial loans over the past several years has
increased  the  credit  risk  inherent  in  the  loan  portfolio  and
the provision for loan losses increased $6.2 million in 2006,
primarily because of an increase in commercial loan charge
offs.  Non-interest  income  decreased  $68,000  primarily
because  of  a  decrease  in  the  gain  recognized  on  the  sale  of
single  family  mortgages,  which  was  partially  offset  by  an
increase  in  fees  and  service  charges  on  checking  accounts.
Non-interest expense increased $795,000 primarily because
of  increased  compensation  and  benefits  costs  and  increased
occupancy  costs  due  in  part  to  additional  branch  facilities
opened in the first quarter of 2006. 

Net Interest Income
Net  interest  income  was  $38.7  million  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 2006, an increase of $2.9 million from $35.8
million in 2005. Interest income was $67.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $7.2 million
from  $60.3  million  for  the  same  period  in  2005.  Interest
income  increased  primarily  because  of  an  increase  in  the
average  interest  rates  earned  on  loans  and  investments.
Interest  rates  increased  primarily  because  of  the  100  basis
point increase in the prime interest rate between the periods.

Increases  in  the  prime  rate,  which  is  the  rate  that  banks
charge their prime business customers, generally increase the
rates  on  adjustable  rate  consumer  and  commercial  loans  in
the portfolio and on new loans and investments. The increase
in interest income due to increased rates was partially offset
by  a  $42  million  decrease  in  the  average  outstanding  loan
portfolio balance between the periods due to an increase in
commercial  loan  prepayments  and  an  increase  in  loan
participations  sold  in  order  to  comply  with  lending  limit
restrictions and reduce credit risk. The average yield earned
on  interest-earning  assets  was  7.21%  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 2006, an increase of 80 basis points from the
6.41%  yield  for  the  same  period  of  2005.  Interest  expense
was $28.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, an
increase  of  $4.3  million  from  $24.5  million  for  the  same
period in 2005. Interest expense increased primarily because
of higher interest rates paid on deposits which were caused
by  the  100  basis  point  increase  in  the  federal  funds  rate
between  the  periods.  Increases  in  the  federal  funds  rate,
which  is  the  rate  that  banks  charge  other  banks  for  short
term  loans,  generally  increase  the  rates  banks  pay  for
deposits. The increase in deposit rates was partially offset by
a change in the mix of funding sources between the periods.
The average outstanding balances of $57 million in brokered
deposits  and  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  advances  were
replaced  with  other  less  expensive  deposits  which  lowered
the  Bank’s  overall  cost  of  funds.  The  average  interest  rate
paid  on  interest-bearing  liabilities  was  3.28%  for  the  year
ended  December  31,  2006,  an  increase  of  52  basis  points
from  the  2.76%  paid  for  the  same  period  of  2005.  Net
interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2006 was
4.13%,  an  increase  of  33  basis  points,  compared  to  3.80%
for the same period of 2005. The following table presents the
total dollar amount of interest income from average interest-
earning assets and the resultant yields, as well as the interest
expense  on  average  interest-bearing  liabilities,  expressed
both  in  dollars  and  rates.  Non-accruing  loans  have  been
included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

(1) Tax exempt income was not significant; therefore, the yield was not presented on a tax equivalent basis for any of the years presented. The tax-exempt income

was $1.1 million for 2006 and 2005, and $1.0 million for 2004. 

(2) Calculated net of deferred loan fees, loan discounts, loans in process and loss reserve.

Net  interest  margin  increased  to  4.13%  in  2006  from
3.80%  for  2005  because  of  the  increase  in  the  prime  rate,
which  generally  increases  the  yield  on  the  adjustable  rate
commercial and consumer loans in the portfolio and on new
loans and investments. The change in the mix of liabilities
from  higher  rate  brokered  deposits  to  lower  rate  checking,
savings  and  money  market  deposit  accounts  also  had  a
positive  effect  on  the  net  interest  margin.  Net  interest
margin was enhanced 10 basis points in 2006 because of an
increase in the amount of prepayment penalties received on
commercial  loans.  Commercial  loan  refinance  activity
increased in 2006 due to the competitive rate environment
that  existed  during  the  year.  Average  net  interest-earning
assets  were  $58.6  million  in  2006  compared  to  $52.9
million  for  2005.  Net  interest-earning  assets  increased
primarily because of an increase in cash from operations and
an increase of $3.0 million in interest earning cash balances
between the periods due to a reduction in the compensating

balance  requirements  at  the  Federal  Reserve  Bank.    Net
interest-earning  assets  were  reduced  by  the  repurchase  of
HMN common stock and the payment of dividends. During
2006  and  2005  the  Company  paid  $4.0  million  and  $1.0
million  to  purchase  its  common  stock  in  the  open  market
and paid dividends to stockholders of $3.7 million and $3.5
million, respectively. 

The  table  on  the  following  page  presents  the  dollar
amount of changes in interest income and interest expense
for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities. It quantifies the changes in interest income
and  interest  expense  related  to  changes  in  the  average
outstanding  balances  (volume)  and  those  changes  caused  by
fluctuating interest rates. For each category of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided
on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes
in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e.,
changes in rate multiplied by old volume).

Provision For Loan Losses
The  provision  for  loan  losses  is  recorded  to  maintain  the
allowance  for  loan  losses  at  a  level  deemed  appropriate  by
management  based  on  the  factors  disclosed  in  the  critical
accounting policy previously discussed. The provision for loan
losses was $8.9 million for 2006 compared to $2.7 million in
2005. The provision for loan losses increased primarily because

$7.4 million in commercial loans relating to a real estate and
golf course development were charged off during the year. The
increase  in  the  provision  related  to  loan  charge  offs  was
partially  offset  by  a  $12  million  decrease  in  outstanding
commercial  loans  between  the  periods.  Loans  charged  off
during  2006  included  commercial  loans  of  $7.4  million,
consumer loans of $269,000 and mortgage loans of $150,000.

Fees  and  service  charges  earned  in  2006  increased
$392,000 from those earned in 2005 primarily because of an
increase  in  overdraft  fees  and  service  charges  on  deposit
accounts.  

Loan servicing fees decreased $38,000 for the year ended
December  31,  2006.  Single-family  loan  servicing  fees
decreased  $102,000  due  to  a  decrease  in  the  number  of
single-family  loans  that  were  serviced  for  others.  The
number of loans serviced decreased because of a decrease in
single-family loans sold and because the servicing rights on
most of the loans originated in 2006 were sold along with
the  loans.  Sold  loans  decreased  because  there  were  fewer
single-family  loans  originated  and  more  of  the  loans  that
were originated were placed into the loan portfolio to replace
prepaying loans. The decrease in single-family loan servicing
fees was partially offset by a $64,000 increase in commercial
loan servicing fees. Commercial loan servicing fees increased
as  a  result  of  an  increase  in  loans  serviced  for  others.  The
commercial  loan  servicing  portfolio  increased  because  the
Bank continues to sell off participations in, but retains the
servicing responsibilities for, certain originated commercial
loans  in  order  to  adhere  to  regulatory  lending  limits  and
manage credit risk within the portfolio. 

Security  gains  increased  $69,000  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 2006 due to the gain on the sale of a Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) preferred stock
investment that had previously been written down because
its  decline  in  value  was  determined  to  be  other  than
temporary.  The  ability  to  realize  gains  on  the  sale  of
securities  is  dependent  upon  the  type  of  securities  in  the
portfolio  and  on  changes  in  the  general  interest  rate

environment.  The  FHLMC  preferred  stock  was  the  only
investment  sold  in  2006  and  no  investments  were  sold  in
2005  because  the  rising  interest  rate  environment  limited
the opportunity to sell securities at a gain.  

Gain on sales of loans decreased $598,000 in 2006. Gain
on  sale  of  single-family  loans  decreased  $491,000  due  to  a
decrease  in  the  number  of  single-family  loans  sold  and  a
decrease in the profit margins realized on the loans that were
sold.  Competition  in  the  single-family  loan  origination
market  remained  strong  in  2006  and  profit  margins  were
lowered  in  order  to  remain  competitive.  Government
guaranteed  commercial  loan  sale  gains  decreased  $107,000
in 2006  due  to  fewer  loan  sales.    The  Company  expects
mortgage interest rates to trend higher in 2007, which may
result  in  lower  loan  originations  and  less  gain  on  sales  of
single-family  loans  than  that  experienced  in  2006.
Commercial  government  guaranteed  loan  volume  is
anticipated to increase in 2007 due to the preferred lender
status  that  the  Bank  obtained  from  the  Small  Business
Administration  (SBA)  in  2006.  This  status  allows  the
Company to streamline the underwriting process by making
certain  underwriting  decisions  on  behalf  of  the  SBA  and
should  help  attract  more  SBA  loan  volume  which  the
Company intends to sell on the secondary market.

Other non-interest income consists primarily of fees and
commissions  earned  on  the  sale  of  financial  planning  and
insurance products and the gains and losses from the sale of
assets.  For  2006,  other  non-interest  income  increased
$107,000, primarily because of decreased losses on the sale of
repossessed and foreclosed assets that were partially offset by
decreased sales of financial planning and insurance products.

Non-interest  expense  increased  $795,000  in  2006
primarily because of a $729,000 increase in compensation and
benefits expense due to annual salary increases and increases
in  employee  pension  costs.  Occupancy  expense  increased
$355,000 primarily because of the additional costs associated
with the new  branch and loan origination offices  opened  in
Rochester in the first quarter of 2006. Data processing costs
increased  $151,000  primarily  because  of  increased  internet
and other banking services provided by a third party processor
between  the  periods.  Other  non-interest  expense  decreased
$331,000  primarily  because  of  a  decrease  in  mortgage  loan
expenses  and  professional  fees.  Mortgage  servicing  rights
amortization  decreased  $171,000  between  the  periods
because there were fewer mortgage loans being serviced.   

Income Taxes
The  Company  considers  the  calculation  of  current  and
deferred income taxes to be a critical accounting policy that is
subject  to  significant  estimates.  Actual  results  could  differ
significantly  from  the  estimates  and  interpretations  used  in
determining the current and deferred income tax assets and
liabilities.  Income  tax  expense  was  $5.2  million  in  2006
compared  to  $6.7  million  for  2005.  Income  tax  expense
decreased between the periods primarily because of a decrease
in taxable income. 

In  June  2006,  the  FASB  issued  Interpretation  No.  48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of
FASB  Statement  No.  109  (FIN  48).    FIN  48  requires
companies  to  recognize  in  their  financial  statements  the
impact of a tax position, taken or expected to be taken, if it is
more  likely  than  not  that  the  position  will  be  sustained  on
audit  based  on  the  technical  merits  of  the  position.    The
Interpretation  requires  the  use  of  a  cumulative  probability
methodology to determine the amounts and probabilities of

all of the possible outcomes that could be realized upon the
ultimate  settlement  of  a  tax  position  using  the  facts,
circumstances,  and  information  available  at  the  reporting
date.  It also requires that interest expense be accrued on the
difference between the tax position recognized in accordance
with the Interpretation and the amount previously taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return.  The provisions of FIN
48 were adopted by the Company on January 1, 2007 and as
a result, the Company recognized an immaterial increase in its
liability  recorded  for  tax  exposure  reserves  for  unrecognized
tax benefits upon adoption. The adjustment was recorded as a
reduction  to  the  January  1,  2007  retained  earnings  balance
and  an  increase  in  tax  liability  in  accordance  with  the
requirements of FIN 48.

The Company is located in Minnesota and files a state income
tax return with the Minnesota Department of Revenue (MDR).
In  January  2007,  the  Company  received  notification  that  the
MDR  was  proposing  adjustments  of  $2.2  million  to  the
Company's 2002 through 2004 Minnesota state tax liability.  The
proposed  adjustments  relate  to  the  tax  treatment  of  the  inter-
company dividends paid to the Bank by Home Federal Holding.
The Company intends to challenge the proposed adjustments.  A
tax  exposure  reserve  has  been  established  during  2002  through
2006 based on a range of probable outcomes, however, the final
liability will depend on the ultimate resolution of this issue.  In
2005, Minnesota state tax laws were changed and the Company's
Minnesota tax filings for 2005 and forward do not have exposure
relating to the treatment of the inter-company dividend payment. 

C O M P A R I S O N   O F   2 0 0 5   W I T H   2 0 0 4
Net income was $11.1 million for the year ended December
31,  2005,  compared  to  $9.3  million  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 2004. Diluted earnings per common share for
the year ended December 31, 2005 were $2.77, compared to

12

$2.31  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2004.  Return  on
average assets was 1.12% and 1.01% and return on average
equity  was  12.42%  and  11.03%  for  the  years  ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. 

In comparing the year ended December 31, 2005 to the
year ended December 31, 2004, net interest income increased
$5.2 million primarily because of an increase in interest rates
and  because  of  a  higher  concentration  of  commercial  loans
and  increased  checking  and  savings  deposits.  Non-interest
income increased $542,000 primarily because of a decrease in
the  losses  recognized  on  securities.  Non-interest  expense
increased  $1.6  million  primarily  because  of  increased
compensation  and  benefits  costs  and  increased  occupancy
costs  due  in  part  to  additional  corporate  office  facilities
occupied in the first quarter of 2005. 

Net  interest  income  was  $35.8  million  for  the  year
ended December 31, 2005, an increase of $5.2 million from
$30.6 million in 2004. Interest income was $60.3 million for
the  year  ended  December  31,  2005,  an  increase  of  $8.7
million  from  $51.6  million  for  the  same  period  in  2004.
Interest  income  increased  because  of  an  increase  in  the
average outstanding balance of interest-earning assets of $66
million between the periods and an increase in interest rates.
Interest  rates  increased  primarily  because  of  the  200  basis
point increase in the prime interest rate between the periods.
Increases  in  the  prime  rate  generally  increase  the  rates  on
adjustable  rate  consumer  and  commercial  loans  in  the
portfolio and new loans originated. The increase in average
interest-earning  assets  was  primarily  the  result  of  the  $85
million  increase  in  the  average  outstanding  balance  of
commercial  loans  between  the  periods.  During  2005,  the
Company’s  commercial  portfolio  continued  to  increase  and
represented  66.8%  of  the  Company’s  outstanding  loans  at
December  31,  2005,  compared  to  63.6%  at  December  31,
2004. The average yield earned on interest-earning assets was
6.41% for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of
51 basis points from the 5.90% yield for the same period of
2004. Interest expense was $24.5 million for the year ended
December 31, 2005, an increase of $3.5 million from $21.0
million  for  the  same  period  in  2004.  Interest  expense
increased  primarily  because  of  higher  interest  rates  paid  on
deposits which were caused by the 200 basis point increase in
the  federal  funds  rate  between  the  periods.  Increases  in  the
federal funds rate generally increase the rates banks pay for
deposits. Interest expense also increased because of the $58
million increase in the average outstanding interest bearing
liabilities between the periods. The average interest rate paid
on interest-bearing liabilities was 2.76% for the year ended
December 31, 2005, an increase of 23 basis points from the
2.53% paid for the same period of 2004. 

Net  interest  margin  increased  to  3.80%  in  2005  from

3.50%  for  2004  primarily  because  of  the  growth  in
commercial loans, which generally have a higher yield than
other  interest-earning  assets,  and  the  increase  in  the
outstanding  average  balance  of  checking  accounts,  which
generally  have  a  lower  rate  than  other  interest-bearing
liabilities.  Average  net  interest-earning  assets  were  $52.9
million  in  2005  compared  to  $44.6  million  for  2004.  Net
interest-earning assets increased because of net income and an
increase  of  $1.5  million  in  interest-earning  cash  balances
between the periods due to a reduction in the compensating
balance  requirements  at  the  Federal  Reserve  Bank.    Net
interest-earning  assets  were  reduced  by  the  repurchase  of
HMN common stock and the payment of dividends. During
2005  and  2004  the  Company  paid  $1.0  million  and  $3.3
million to purchase its common stock in the open market and
paid  dividends  to  stockholders  of  $3.5  million  and  $3.2
million, respectively. 

The provision for loan losses was $2.7 million for 2005
compared  to  $2.8  million  in  2004.  The  provision  for  loan
losses  decreased  primarily  because  the  commercial  loan
portfolio growth rate decreased from 13.5% in 2004 to 3.4%
in  2005.  The  decrease  in  the  provision  related  to  reduced
loan  growth  during  the  period  was  partially  offset  by  an
increase  in  the  provision  related  to  loan  charge  offs  which
increased from $738,000 in 2004 to $3.1 million in 2005.
Loans charged off during 2005 included commercial loans of
$2.6  million,  consumer  loans  of  $228,000  and  mortgage
loans of $234,000. The commercial loan charge offs were the
result  of  acquiring  multiple  related  real  estate  properties
during the year that were subsequently sold at a loss.

Non-interest income was $6.5 million for the year ended
December  31,  2005,  an  increase  of  $542,000,  from  $6.0
million for the same period in 2004. Fees and service charges
earned in 2005 decreased $57,000 from those earned in 2004
due to a decrease in overdraft fees and service charges because
of customer behavior changes that resulted in a lower volume
of activity in 2005. Title service fees also decreased because
Federal  Title  Services,  LLC  was  dissolved  in  2004.  Loan
servicing fees increased $41,000 for the year ended December
31, 2005. Commercial loan servicing fees increased $57,000
as  a  result  of  an  increase  in  loans  serviced  for  others.  The
commercial  loan  servicing  portfolio  increased  because  the
Bank  continues  to  sell  off  participations  in,  but  retains  the
servicing  responsibility  for,  certain  originated  commercial
loans  in  order  to  adhere  to  regulatory  lending  limits  and
manage  credit  risk  within  the  portfolio.  Single-family  loan
servicing  fees  decreased  $16,000  due  to  a  decrease  in  the
number of single-family loans that were serviced for others.
The number of loans serviced decreased because of decreased
single-family  loan  production  and  because  the  servicing
rights  on  many  of  the  loans  originated  in  2005  were  sold

13

M A N A G E M E N T ’ S   D I S C U S S I O N   A N D   A N A L Y S I S

with  the  loans.  Security  losses  decreased  $514,000  for  the
year  ended  December  31,  2005  due  to  the  $539,000  write
down in the fourth quarter of 2004 of a Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) preferred stock investment
whose  decline  in  value  due  to  decreased  interest  rates  was
determined to be other than temporary. An additional write
down of $21,000 was recorded on the same security in 2005.
The  ability  to  realize  gains  on  the  sale  of  securities  is
dependent on the type of securities in the securities portfolio
and  on  changes  in  the  general  interest  rate  environment.
There  were  no  investment  sales  in  2005  and  sales  were
limited in 2004 because the rising interest rate environment
limited the opportunity to sell securities at a gain. Gain on
sales of loans increased $150,000 in 2005. Gains on the sale
of  single-family  loans  decreased  $321,000  in  2005  due  to
decreased  loan  originations.  The  decrease  in  single-family
loan sale gains was offset entirely by an increase in the gains
recognized on the sale of government guaranteed commercial
loans  sold  in  2005.  In  an  effort  to  diversify  the  Bank’s
product  offerings,  the  Bank  began  offering  Small  Business
Administration  (SBA)  and  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture
(USDA)  guaranteed  loans  in  2005.  Other  non-interest
income consists primarily of fees and commissions earned on
the sale of financial planning and insurance products and the
gains and losses from the sale of assets. For 2005, other non-
interest  income  decreased  $105,000,  primarily  because  of

increased losses on the sale of repossessed and foreclosed assets
that  were  partially  offset  by  increased  rental  income  from
leasing space at an existing branch facility to a third party. 

Non-interest  expense  for  the  year  ended  December  31,
2005 was $21.8 million, compared to $20.2 million for the
year  ended  December  31,  2004.  Non-interest  expense
increased  $1.6  million  in  2005  primarily  because  of  a
$954,000 increase in compensation and benefits expense due
to  increases  in  payroll  costs,  which  were  primarily  due  to
annual  salary  increases  and  increases  in  employee  benefit
costs.  Occupancy  expense  increased  $451,000  primarily
because  of  the  additional  corporate  office  space  that  was
occupied  in  the  first  quarter  of  2005  and  increased
amortization  expense  on  various  software  upgrades.  Other
operating expenses increased $186,000 primarily because of
increased  costs  on  foreclosed  and  repossessed  assets  and
increased charitable contributions in 2005 when compared to
2004. 

Income tax expense was $6.7 million for the year ended
December  31,  2005,  compared  to  $4.4  million  for  2004.
Income tax expense increased between the periods due to an
increase in taxable income and an increase in the effective tax
rate from 32.1% in 2004 to 37.8% in 2005. The increase in
the  effective  tax  rate  was  primarily  the  result  of  additional
state  tax  expense  due  to  changes  in  state  tax  laws  that
occurred in 2005 relating to the tax treatment of dividends
paid to the Bank by Home Federal Holding.

The Company continues to manage interest rate risk and
increase  interest  income  by  increasing  its  investment  in
shorter term and generally higher yielding commercial real
estate loans.  The Company intends to increase the size of its
commercial  real  estate,  consumer  and  commercial  business
portfolios  while  maintaining  the  one-to-four  family  loan
portfolio.

One-to-four family real estate loans were $134.3 million
at December 31, 2006, an increase of $7.2 million, compared
to $127.1 million at December 31, 2005. Loan originations
decreased in 2006 but more of the loans that were originated
were  placed  in  portfolio.  The  increase  in  the  amount  of
mortgage  loans  placed  in  portfolio  was  the  primary  reason 

for  the  growth  in  the  one-to-four  family  loan  portfolio
during 2006.

Commercial  real  estate  loans  were  $294.5  million  at
December 31, 2006, an increase of $34.2 million, compared
to  $260.3  million  at  December  31,  2005.  Commercial
business loans were $176.8 million at December 31, 2006, a
decrease  of  $17.2  million,  compared  to  $194.0  million  at
December 31, 2005. The Company’s continued emphasis on
commercial  real  estate  and  commercial  business  loans
resulted in the origination or purchase of these loans totaling
$437.6  million  in  2006,  compared  to  $306.5  million  in
2005. The increase in production was offset by an increase in
participations  sold  in  order  to  comply  with  lending  limit

15

M A N A G E M E N T ’ S   D I S C U S S I O N   A N D   A N A L Y S I S

restrictions  and  reduce  credit  risk  concentrations.  The
commercial  business  loans  decreased  primarily  because
several  large  loans  were  paid  off  during  the  year  due  to
aggressive financing rates from competing lenders.  

Home equity line loans were $54.2 million at December
31, 2006, compared to $61.0 million at December 31, 2005.
The  open-end  home  equity  lines  are  written  with  an
adjustable  rate  with  a  10  year  draw  period  which  requires
“interest  only”  payments  followed  by  a  10  year  repayment
period  which  fully  amortizes  the  outstanding  balance.
Closed-end  home  equity  loans  are  written  with  fixed  or
adjustable  rates  with  terms  up  to  15  years.  Home  equity
loans were $21.3 million at December 31, 2006, compared
to $19.1 million at December 31, 2005. The prime interest
rate  increased  100  basis  points  in  2006,  while  long  term
mortgage rates decreased. Since most home equity loan rates
are  tied  to  the  prime  interest  rate,  some  borrowers  rolled
their  adjustable  rate  home  equity  loans  into  a  mortgage 
loan in order to lock in a long term fixed rate. The higher
rates also decreased demand for second mortgages from other
borrowers  who  were  unable  to  combine  their  first  and 
second mortgages.

Allowance for Loan Losses
The determination of the allowance for loan losses  and the
related  provision  is  a  critical  accounting  policy  of  the
Company  that  is  subject  to  significant  estimates,  as

previously discussed. The current level of the allowance for
loan losses is a result of management’s assessment of the risks
within  the  portfolio  based  on  the  information  obtained
through the credit evaluation process. The Company utilizes
a risk-rating  system  on  non-homogenous  commercial  real
estate  and  commercial  business  loans  that  includes  regular
credit  reviews  to  identify  and  quantify  the  risk  in  the
commercial  portfolio.  Management  conducts  quarterly
reviews of the entire loan portfolio and evaluates the need to
establish general allowances and specific reserves on the basis
of these reviews.

Management continues to actively monitor asset quality
and to charge off loans against the allowance for loan losses
when  appropriate.  Although  management  believes  it  uses
the best information available to make determinations with
respect to the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments
may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially
from  the  economic  conditions  in  the  assumptions  used  to
determine the size of the allowance for loan losses.

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  was  $9.9  million,  or
1.26%  of  gross  loans  at  December  31,  2006,  compared  to
$8.8 million, or 1.09% of gross loans at December 31, 2005.
The allowance for loan losses and the related ratios increased
primarily  because  of  a  $6.0  million 
in
nonperforming  loans  between  the  periods.  The  following
table reflects the activity in the allowance for loan losses and

The allocation of the allowance for loan losses increased in
2006  for  one-to-four  family  and  consumer  loans  due  to  an
increase  in  the  reserve  for  unclassified  loans  based  on
management’s assessment of the risk in these portfolios based
on historical experience. The allocation for consumer loans also
increased due to the increased specific reserves on certain home
equity  loans  in  this  category.  The  allocated  percentage  for
commercial real estate and construction or development loans
increased in 2006 due to management’s assessment of the risk
and  assignment  of  risk  ratings  of  certain  individual  loans  in
this category. The allocated percentage for multi-family loans
decreased  between  the  years  because  some  of  the  loans  that
were classified at the end of 2005 paid off during 2006. 

Allowance for Real Estate Losses
Real  estate  properties  acquired  or  expected  to  be  acquired
through loan foreclosures are initially recorded at the lower
of  the  related  loan  balance,  less  any  specific  allowance  for
loss,  or  fair  value  less  estimated  selling  costs.  Management
periodically performs valuations and an allowance for losses
is established if the carrying value of a property exceeds its
fair  value  less  estimated  selling  costs.  There  was  limited
activity in the allowance for real estate losses and the balance
was  $125,000  and  $100,000  at  December  31,  2006  and
2005, respectively. 

Non-performing Assets
Loans  are  reviewed  at  least  quarterly  and  any  loan  whose
collectibility  is  doubtful  is  placed  on  non-accrual  status.
Loans are placed on non-accrual status when either principal
or  interest  is  90  days  or  more  past  due,  unless,  in  the

judgment of management, the loan is well collateralized and
in  the  process  of  collection.  Interest  accrued  and  unpaid  at
the  time  a  loan  is  placed  on  non-accrual  status  is  charged
against  interest  income.  Subsequent  payments  are  either
applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as
interest income, depending on the assessment of the ultimate
collectibility of the loan. Restructured loans include the Bank’s
troubled debt restructurings that involved forgiving a portion
of interest or principal or making loans at a rate materially less
than the market rate. Foreclosed and repossessed assets include
assets acquired in settlement of loans.

Non-performing  assets  are  comprised  of  non-accrual
loans,  restructured  loans,  impaired  securities,  delinquent
accounts receivable, real estate acquired through foreclosure,
and  repossessed  assets  and  totaled  $10.4  million  at
December 31, 2006, compared to $3.9 million at December
31,  2005.  The  $6.5  million  increase  in  non-performing
assets  at  December  31,  2006  relates  primarily  to  a  $6.0
million  increase  in  non-performing  loans  and  a  $696,000
increase  in  foreclosed  and  repossessed  assets.  The  non-
performing loan increase was primarily due to a $4.2 million
increase in non-performing commercial real estate loans as a
result  of  a  golf  course  and  real  estate  development  loan  of
which  the  guaranteed  portion  of  the  note  was  non-
performing at December 31, 2006.  The single-family non-
performing loans increased $738,000 from the prior year due
to a small number of single family loans that were classified
as  non-performing  because  of  the  delinquency  of  the  loan
payments. These increases are partially offset by a decrease of
$134,000 in non-performing other assets.

For  the  years  ended  December  31,  2006,  2005  and
2004, gross interest income which would have been recorded
had the non-accruing loans been current in accordance with
their original terms amounted to $1,824,267, $327,280 and
$271,071, respectively. The amounts that were included in
interest income on a cash basis for such loans were $845,346,
$273,458 and $158,767, respectively.

In addition to the non-performing assets set forth in the
table  above,  as  of  December  31,  2006  there  were  no  loans
with known information about the possible credit problems
of  the  borrowers  or  the  cash  flows  of  the  secured  properties
that  have  caused  management  to  have  concerns  as  to  the
ability  of  the  borrowers  to  comply  with  present  loan
repayment terms which may result in the future inclusion of
such 
in  the  non-performing  asset  categories.
Management  has  considered  the  Bank’s  non-performing  and
“of concern” assets in establishing its allowance for loan losses.

The Company manages its liquidity position to ensure that the
funding needs of borrowers and depositors are met timely and in
the most cost effective manner. Asset liquidity is the ability to
convert assets to cash through the maturity or sale of the asset.
Liability liquidity is the ability of the Bank to attract retail or
brokered deposits or to borrow funds from third parties such as
the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). 

The primary investing activities are the origination of loans
and the purchase of securities. Principal and interest payments on
loans and securities along with the proceeds from the sale of loans
held  for  sale  are  the  primary  sources  of  cash  for  the  Company.

Additional  cash  can  be  obtained  by  selling  securities  from  the
available  for  sale  portfolio  or  by  selling  loans  or  mortgage
servicing rights. Unpledged securities could also be pledged and
used  as  collateral  for  additional  borrowings  with  the  FHLB  to
generate additional cash.

The primary financing activity is the attraction of retail
and brokered deposits. The Bank has the ability to borrow
additional  funds  from  the  FHLB  by  pledging  additional
securities  or  loans.  Refer  to  Note  12  of  the  Notes  to
Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on
additional advances that could be drawn based upon existing
collateral levels with the FHLB. Information on outstanding
advance  maturities  and  related  early  call  features  is  also
included in Note 12.

The  Company’s  most  liquid  assets  are  cash  and  cash
equivalents,  which  consist  of  short-term  highly  liquid
investments  with  original  maturities  of  less  than  three
months  that  are  readily  convertible  to  known  amounts  of
cash and interest-bearing deposits. The level of these assets
is  dependent  on  the  operating,  financing  and  investing
activities during any given period. 

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2006 were
$43.8 million, a decrease of $3.5 million, compared to $47.3
million  at  December  31,  2005.  Net  cash  provided  by
operating  activities  during  2006  was  $19.7  million.  The
Company conducted the following major investing activities
during 2006: principal payments received and maturities of
securities  available  for  sale  and  FHLB  stock  were  $152.6
million,  proceeds  from  sales  of  securities  available  for  sale
were $3.0 million, purchases of securities available for sale

18

271060_Guts  2/26/07  12:58 PM  Page 19

and FHLB stock were $158.4 million and loans receivable
decreased  $4.9  million.  The  Company  spent  $1.4  million
for  the  purchase  of  equipment  and  updating  its  premises.
Net cash provided by investing activities during 2006 was
$603,000.  The  Company  conducted  the  following  major
financing  activities  during  2006:  purchased  treasury  stock
of  $4.0  million,  paid  $3.7  million  in  dividends  to  HMN
stockholders,  received  proceeds  from  advances  totaling
$34.5 million, repaid advances totaling $44.5 million, and
deposits decreased $6.0 million. Net cash used by financing
activities was $23.8 million.

The  Company  has  certificates  of  deposit  with
outstanding balances of $284.2 million that mature during
2007. Based upon past experience management anticipates
that  the  majority  of  the  deposits  will  renew  for  another
term. The Company believes that deposits that do not renew
will be replaced with deposits from a combination of other
customers  or  brokers.  FHLB  advances  or  the  sale  of
securities  could  also  be  used  to  replace  unanticipated
outflows of deposits. 

The Company has deposits of $117.1 million in checking
and  money  market  accounts  with  customers  that  have
individual balances greater than $5 million. While these funds
may be withdrawn at any time, management anticipates that
the majority will remain on deposit with the Bank over the
next twelve months. If these deposits were to be withdrawn,
they would be replaced with deposits from other customers or
brokers. FHLB advances or proceeds from the sale of securities
could also be used to replace unanticipated outflows of large
checking and money market deposits. 

The Company has $40 million in FHLB advances that
mature in 2007 and it has $100.9 million of FHLB advances
with maturities beyond 2007 that have call features that may
be exercised by the FHLB during 2007. If the call features
are exercised, the Company has the option of requesting any
advance  otherwise  available  to  it  pursuant  to  the  credit
policy of the FHLB. 

The credit policy of the FHLB may change such that the
current collateral pledged to secure the advances is no longer
acceptable  or  the  formulas  for  determining  the  excess
pledged  collateral  may  change.  If  this  were  to  happen,  the
Bank may not have additional collateral to pledge to secure
the existing advances which could cause the FHLB advances
to become a liquidity problem during 2007.    
its 

liquidity
anticipates 
requirements  for  2007  will  be  similar  to  the  cash  flows  it
experienced in 2006.

Regulatory Capital Requirements
As  a  result  of  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation
Improvement  Act  of  1991  (FDICIA),  banking  and  thrift
regulators  are  required  to  take  prompt  regulatory  action
against  institutions  which  are  undercapitalized.  FDICIA
requires  banking  and  thrift  regulators  to  categorize
institutions  as  “well  capitalized",  “adequately  capitalized",
“undercapitalized",  “significantly  undercapitalized",  or
“critically  undercapitalized”.  A  savings  institution  will  be
deemed to be well capitalized if it: (i) has a total risk-based
capital ratio of 10% or greater, (ii) has a Tier 1 (core) risk-
based capital ratio of 6% or greater, (iii) has a leverage ratio
of  5%  or  greater,  and  (iv)  is  not  subject  to  any  order  or
written directive by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) to
meet  and  maintain  a  specific  capital  level  for  any  capital
measure.  Management  believes  that,  as  of  December  31,
2006, the Bank met all of the capital requirements to which
it was subject and is well capitalized based on the regulatory
definition described above. Refer to Note 18 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for a table which reflects
the Bank’s capital compared to its capital requirements.

Dividends
The  declaration  of  dividends  is  subject  to,  among  other
things,  the  Company’s  financial  condition  and  results  of
operations, the Bank’s compliance with its regulatory capital
requirements,  tax  considerations,  industry  standards,
economic  conditions,  regulatory  restrictions,  general
business practices and other factors. Refer to Note 17 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information
on regulatory limitations on dividends from the Bank to the
Company  and  additional  information  on  dividends.  The
payment  of  dividends  is  dependent  upon  the  Company
having adequate cash or other assets that can be converted to
cash to pay dividends to its stockholders. The Company does
not  anticipate  a  liquidity  problem  in  2007  relating  to  the
payment of dividends.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of
operations.  Unlike  most  industrial  companies,  nearly  all  of
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 prices of goods
and services.

New Accounting Pronouncements
The  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  (SFAS)  No.  123  (revised  2004),  Share-Based
(FAS  123R)  on  January  1,  2006.  It  requires
Payment
companies to recognize in compensation expense the grant-
date fair value of stock awards issued. The Company adopted
FAS 123R using the modified prospective transition method.

In  accordance  with  the  modified  prospective  transition
method,  the  Company’s  Consolidated  Financial  Statements
for prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact
of  FAS  123R.  As  a  result  of  applying  FAS  123R,  the
Company  recognized  share-based  compensation  expense  of
$64,423 for the year ended December 31, 2006.

In  March  2006,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards
Board  (FASB)  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial
Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. Effective as
of  the  beginning  of  an  entity’s  first  fiscal  year  that  begins
after September 15, 2006, an entity is required to recognize
a  servicing  asset  or  liability  each  time  it  undertakes  an
obligation to service a financial asset. SFAS No. 156 requires
that all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities
be initially measured at fair value and permits, but does not
require, the subsequent measurement of servicing assets and
liabilities  at  fair  value.  It  also  permits  a  one-time
reclassification, at the time of initial adoption, of available-
for-sale  securities  to  trading  securities  by  entities  with
recognized  servicing  rights,  without  calling  into  question
the  treatment  of  other  available-for-sale  securities  under
Statement 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities
are  identified  in  some  manner  as  offsetting  the  entity’s
exposure  to  changes  in  the  fair  value  of  servicing  assets  or
liabilities  that  a  servicer  elects  to  subsequently  measure  at
fair  value.  Separate  presentation  of  servicing  assets  and
liabilities subsequently measured at fair value are required to
be  disclosed  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  The
provisions of SFAS No. 156 were adopted by the Company
on January 1, 2007 and did not have a material impact on
the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In  June  2006,  the  FASB  issued  Interpretation  No.  48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of
FASB  Statement  No.  109 (FIN  48).    FIN  48  requires
companies  to  recognize  in  their  financial  statements  the
impact of a tax position, taken or expected to be taken, if it
is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on
audit  based  on  the  technical  merits  of  the  position.    The
Interpretation  requires  the  use  of  a  cumulative  probability
methodology to determine the amounts and probabilities of
all of the possible outcomes that could be realized upon the
ultimate  settlement  of  a  tax  position  using  the  facts,
circumstances,  and  information  available  at  the  reporting
date.  It also requires that interest expense be accrued on the
difference between the tax position recognized in accordance
with the Interpretation and the amount previously taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return.  The provisions of FIN
48 were adopted by the Company on January 1, 2007 and as
a result, the Company recognized an immaterial increase in
its  liability  recorded  for  tax  exposure  reserves  for
unrecognized  tax  benefits  upon  adoption.  The  adjustment
was recorded as a reduction to the January 1, 2007 retained
earnings balance and an increase in tax liability in accordance
with the requirements of FIN 48.

In  September  2006,  the  FASB  issued  SFAS  No.  157,
Fair  Value  Measurements. This  Statement  defines  fair  value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally
accepted  accounting  principles,  and  expands  disclosures
about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities.
This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal  years  beginning  after  November  15,  2007,  and  for
interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years.  The  impact  of
adopting  SFAS  No.  157  on  January  1,  2008  is  not
anticipated  to  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Company’s
results of operations or financial position.

In  September  2006,  the  FASB  issued  SFAS  No.  158,
Employers’  Accounting  for  Defined  Benefit  Pension  and  Other
Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87,
88,  106,  and  132(R). This  Statement  improves  financial
reporting  by  requiring  an  employer  to  recognize  the
overfunded  or  underfunded  status  of  a  defined  benefit
postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an
asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to
recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which
the  changes  occur  through  comprehensive  income.  An
employer with publicly traded equity securities is required
to initially recognize the funded status of a defined benefit
postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures
as  of  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  ending  after  December  15,
2006. Since the Company’s only defined benefit pension plan
is a multiemployer plan, the requirements of this statement
do not apply and therefore SFAS No. 158 did not have any
impact  on  the  Company’s  December  31,  2006  results  of
operations or financial position.

In  September  2006,  the  SEC  issued  Staff  Accounting
Bulletin  No.  108,  Considering  the  Effects  of  Prior  Year
Misstatements  when  Quantifying  Misstatements  in  Current  Year
(SAB  108).  SAB  108  provides
Financial  Statements
interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or
reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in
quantifying  a  current  year  misstatement.  The  SEC  staff
believes that registrants should quantify errors using both a

balance  sheet  and  an  income  statement  approach  and
evaluate  whether  either  approach  results  in  quantifying  a
misstatement  that,  when  all  relevant  quantitative  and
qualitative  factors  are  considered,  is  material.  SAB  108  is
effective  for  years  ending  on  or  after  November  15,  2006.
The application of SAB 108 did not have any impact on the
Company’s  December  31,  2006  results  of  operations  or
financial position.

M a r k e t   R i s k s  
Market  risk  is  the  risk  of  loss  from  adverse  changes  in
market prices and rates. The Company’s market risk arises
primarily  from  interest  rate  risk  inherent  in  its  investing,
lending and deposit taking activities. Management actively
monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. 

The Company’s profitability is affected by fluctuations
in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest
rates may adversely impact the Company’s earnings to the
extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities
do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on
the  same  basis.  The  Company  monitors  the  projected
changes  in  net  interest  income  that  occur  if  interest  rates
were to suddenly change up or down. The Rate Shock Table
located  in  the  Asset/Liability  Management  section  of  this
Management’s Discussion and Analysis section discloses the
Company’s  projected  changes  in  net  interest  income  based
upon immediate interest rate changes called rate shocks. 

The Company utilizes a model that uses the discounted
cash flows from its interest-earning assets and its interest-
bearing liabilities to calculate the current market value of those
assets and liabilities. The model also calculates the changes in
market value of the interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities under different interest rate changes. 

The following table discloses the projected changes in
market  value  to  the  Company’s  interest-earning  assets  and
interest-bearing liabilities based upon incremental 100 basis
point changes in interest rates from interest rates in effect on
December 31, 2006.

The  preceding  table  was  prepared  utilizing  the
following  assumptions  (the  Model  Assumptions)  regarding
prepayment  and  decay  ratios  that  were  determined  by
management  based  upon  their  review  of  historical
prepayment  speeds  and  future  prepayment  projections.
Fixed  rate  loans  were  assumed  to  prepay  at  annual  rates  of
between 7% and 76%, depending on the note rate and the
period to maturity. Adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) were
assumed to prepay at annual rates of between 11% and 31%,
depending  on  the  note  rate  and  the  period  to  maturity.
Growing  Equity  Mortgage  (GEM)  loans  were  assumed  to
prepay at annual rates of between 6% and 49% depending
on  the  note  rate  and  the  period  to  maturity.  Mortgage-
backed  securities  and  Collateralized  Mortgage  Obligations
(CMOs) were projected to have prepayments based upon the
underlying  collateral  securing  the  instrument  and  the
related  cash  flow  priority  of  the  CMO  tranche  owned.
Certificate accounts were assumed not to be withdrawn until
maturity.  Passbook  and  money  market  accounts  were
assumed  to  decay  at  an  annual  rate  of  23%.  Non-interest
checking and NOW accounts were assumed to decay at an
annual  rate  of  17%.  Commercial  NOW  and  MMDA
accounts  were  assumed  to  decay  at  an  annual  rate  of  31%.
FHLB advances were projected to be called at the first call
date where the projected interest rate on similar remaining
term  advances  exceeded  the  interest  rate  on  the  callable
advance.  Refer  to  Note  12  of  the  Notes  to  Consolidated
Financial Statements for more information on call provisions
of the FHLB advances.

Certain  shortcomings  are  inherent  in  the  method  of
analysis presented in the foregoing table. The interest rates
on  certain  types  of  assets  and  liabilities  may  fluctuate  in
advance  of  changes  in  market  interest  rates,  while  interest
rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind
changes in market interest rates. The model assumes that the

difference between the current interest rate being earned or
paid  compared  to  a  treasury  instrument  or  other  interest
index with a similar term to maturity (the Interest Spread)
will  remain  constant  over  the  interest  changes  disclosed  in
the table. Changes in Interest Spread could impact projected
market  value  changes.  Certain  assets,  such  as  ARMs,  have
features that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term
basis and over the life of the assets. The market value of the
interest-bearing  assets  that  are  approaching  their  lifetime
interest  rate  caps  could  be  different  from  the  values
calculated in the table. In the event of a change in interest
rates,  prepayment  and  early  withdrawal  levels  may  deviate
significantly  from  those  assumed  in  calculating  the
foregoing  table.  The  ability  of  many  borrowers  to  service
their  debt  may  decrease  in  the  event  of  a  substantial
sustained increase in interest rates. 

Asset/Liability Management
The  Company’s  management  reviews  the  impact  that
changing interest rates will have on the net interest income
projected  for  the  twelve  months  following  December  31,
2006 to determine if its current level of interest rate risk is
acceptable.  The  following  table  projects  the  estimated
impact  on  net  interest  income  of  immediate  interest  rate
changes called rate shocks:

The  preceding  table  was  prepared  utilizing  the  Model
Assumptions.  Certain  shortcomings  are  inherent  in  the
method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. In the
event  of  a  change  in  interest  rates,  prepayment  and  early
withdrawal  levels  would  likely  deviate  significantly  from
those assumed in calculating the foregoing table. The ability
of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the
event  of  a  substantial  increase  in  interest  rates  and  could
impact net interest income. The decrease in interest income
in a rising rate environment is because some adjustable rate
loans  hit  their  interest  rate  ceilings  and  will  not  reprice
higher.  In  addition,  the  model  assumes  that  outstanding
callable advances would be called in an up 100 basis point
rate shock scenario, which would increase the Bank’s cost of
funds and reduce net interest income.

In  an  attempt  to  manage  its  exposure  to  changes  in
interest  rates,  management  closely  monitors  interest  rate
risk.  The  Company  has  an  Asset/Liability  Committee  that
meets frequently to discuss changes made to the interest rate
risk  position  and  projected  profitability.  The  Committee
makes adjustments to the asset-liability position of the Bank
that are reviewed by the Board of Directors of the Bank. This
Committee  also  reviews  the  Bank’s  portfolio,  formulates
investment  strategies  and  oversees  the  timing  and
implementation  of  transactions  to  assure  attainment  of  the
Bank’s objectives in the most effective manner. In addition,
the  Board  reviews  on  a  quarterly  basis  the  Bank’s
asset/liability position, including simulations of the effect on
the Bank’s capital of various interest rate scenarios.

In  managing  its  asset/liability  mix,  the  Bank  may,  at
times,  depending  on  the  relationship  between  long  and
short-term  interest  rates,  market  conditions  and  consumer
preference,  place  more  emphasis  on  managing  net  interest
margin than on better matching the interest rate sensitivity
of its assets and liabilities in an effort to enhance net interest
income. Management believes that the increased net interest
income  resulting  from  a  mismatch  in  the  maturity  of  its
asset  and  liability  portfolios  can,  in  certain  situations,
provide  high  enough  returns  to  justify  the  increased
exposure to sudden and unexpected changes in interest rates. 
To  the  extent  consistent  with  its  interest  rate  spread
objectives, the Bank attempts to manage its interest rate risk
and  has  taken  a  number  of  steps  to  restructure  its  balance
sheet in order to better match the maturities of its assets and
liabilities. The Bank has primarily focused its fixed rate one-
to-four family residential lending program on loans that are
saleable to third parties and generally places only those fixed
rate loans that meet certain risk characteristics into its loan
portfolio. The Bank does place into portfolio adjustable rate
single-family loans that reprice over a one-year, three-year or
five-year period. The Bank’s commercial loan production has
primarily  been  in  adjustable  rate  loans  and  the  fixed  rate
commercial loans placed in portfolio have been shorter-term
loans, usually with maturities of five years or less, in order to
manage the Company’s interest rate risk exposure.

NOTE 1  Description of the Business and Summary of

Significant Accounting Policies
HMN Financial, Inc. (HMN or the Company) is a stock savings bank
holding company that owns 100 percent of Home Federal Savings
Bank (the Bank). The Bank has a community banking philosophy
and  operates  retail  banking  and  loan  production  facilities  in
Minnesota  and  Iowa.  The  Bank  has  one  wholly  owned  subsidiary,
Osterud  Insurance  Agency,  Inc.  (OIA)  which  offers  financial
planning  products  and  services.  HMN  has  another  wholly  owned
subsidiary,  Security  Finance  Corporation  (SFC)  which  acts  as  an
intermediary  for  the  Bank  in  transacting  like-kind  property
exchanges for Bank customers. The Bank had two other subsidiaries
during  the  years  presented  that  are  no  longer  operating.    Home
Federal  Holding,  Inc.  (HFH),  a  wholly  owned  subsidiary,  was  the
holding  company  for  Home  Federal  REIT,  Inc.  (HFREIT)  which
invested  in  real  estate  loans  acquired  from  the  Bank.  HFH  and
HFREIT were both dissolved in 2005. Federal Title Services, LLC
(FTS), which was 80% owned by the Bank, performed mortgage title
services for Bank customers and was dissolved in 2004. 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  included  herein  are  for
HMN,  SFC,  the  Bank  and  the  Bank’s  consolidated  entities  as
described  above.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts  and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

In  preparing  the  consolidated  financial
Use  of  Estimates
statements,  management  is  required  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 

Estimates that are particularly susceptible to change relate to
the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation
of mortgage servicing rights. 

Management  believes  that  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  is
adequate  to  cover  probable  losses  inherent  in  the  portfolio  at  the
date  of  the  balance  sheet.  While  management  uses  available
information  to  recognize  losses  on  loans,  future  additions  to  the
allowance  may  be  necessary  based  on  changes  in  economic
conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral
part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance
for loan losses. Such agencies may require additions to the allowance
based on their judgment about information available to them at the
time of their examination.

Mortgage servicing rights are stratified by loan type and note
rate and are valued quarterly by a third party using prepayment and
default  rate  assumptions.  While  management  believes  that  the
assumptions used and the values determined are reasonable, future
adjustments  may  be  necessary  if  economic  conditions  differ
substantially from the economic conditions in the assumptions used
to determine the value of the mortgage servicing rights.

Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.

Securities  are  accounted  for  according  to  their  purpose
Securities
and  holding  period.  The  Company  classifies  its  debt  and  equity
securities in one of three categories:  

Trading Securities  Securities held principally for resale in the near
term are classified as trading securities and are recorded at their fair
values. Unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included
in other income.

Securities  Held  to  Maturity    Securities that the Company has the
positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost and
adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest
income  using  the  interest  method  over  the  period  to  maturity.
Unrealized losses on securities held to maturity reflecting a decline in
value judged to be other than temporary are charged to income and a
new cost basis is established.

Securities Available for Sale  Securities available for sale consist of
securities not classified as trading securities or as securities held to
maturity. They include securities that management intends to use as
part of its asset/liability strategy or that may be sold in response to
changes  in  interest  rate,  changes  in  prepayment  risk,  or  similar
factors. Unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, are reported
as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Gains
and losses on the sale of securities available for sale are determined
using the specific identification method and recognized on the trade
date.  Premiums  and  discounts  are  recognized  in  interest  income
using the interest method over the period to maturity. Unrealized
losses  on  securities  available  for  sale  reflecting  a  decline  in  value
judged to be other than temporary are charged to income and a new
cost basis is established.

Loans Held for Sale Mortgage loans originated or purchased which
are intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower
of  cost  or  estimated  market  value  in  the  aggregate.  Net  fees  and
costs associated with acquiring and/or originating loans held for sale
are deferred and included in the basis of the loan in determining the
gain  or  loss  on  the  sale  of  the  loans.  Gains  are  recognized  on  the
settlement  date.  Net  unrealized  losses  are  recognized  through  a
valuation allowance by charges to income.

Loans  Receivable,  Net Loans  receivable,  net  are  considered  long-
term  investments  and,  accordingly,  are  carried  at  amortized  cost.
Loan origination fees received, net of certain loan origination costs,
are  deferred  as  an  adjustment  to  the  carrying  value  of  the  related
loans, and are amortized into income using the interest method over
the estimated life of the loans.

Premiums  and  discounts  on  loans  are  amortized  into  interest
income  using  the  interest  method  over  the  period  to  contractual
maturity, adjusted for estimated prepayments.

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  maintained  at  an  amount
considered  adequate  by  management  to  provide  for  probable  losses
inherent  in  the  loan  portfolio  as  of  the  balance  sheet  dates.  The
allowance for loan losses is based on a quarterly analysis of the loan
portfolio.  In  this  analysis,  management  considers  factors  including,
but  not  limited  to,  specific  occurrences  which  include  loan
impairment, changes in the size of the portfolios, general economic
conditions, loan portfolio composition and historical experience.  In
connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses,
management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties
or other collateral securing delinquent loans. The allowance for loan
losses  is  established  for  known  problem  loans,  as  well  as  for  loans
which are not currently known to require specific allowances. Loans
are charged off to the extent they are deemed to be uncollectible. The

28

271060_Guts  2/26/07  12:58 PM  Page 29

adequacy  of  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  dependent  upon
management’s estimates of variables affecting valuation, appraisals of
collateral, evaluations of performance and status, and the amounts and
timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans.
Such estimates, appraisals, evaluations and cash flows may be subject
to  frequent  adjustments  due  to  changing  economic  prospects  of
borrowers or properties. The estimates are reviewed periodically and
adjustments, if any, are recorded in the provision for loan losses in the
periods in which the adjustments become known. 

Interest  income  is  recognized  on  an  accrual  basis  except  when
collectibility is in doubt. When loans are placed on a non-accrual
basis,  generally  when  the  loan  is  90  days  past  due,  previously
accrued  but  unpaid  interest  is  reversed  from  income.  Interest  is
subsequently  recognized  as  income  to  the  extent  cash  is  received
when, in management’s judgment, principal is collectible.

All  impaired  loans  are  valued  at  the  present  value  of  expected
future  cash  flows  discounted  at  the  loan’s  initial  effective  interest
rate.  The  fair  value  of  the  collateral  of  an  impaired  collateral-
dependent loan or an observable market price, if one exists, may be
used as an alternative to discounting. If the value of the impaired
loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment
will be recognized through the allowance for loan losses. A loan is
considered impaired when, based on current information and events,
it  is  probable  that  the  Company  will  be  unable  to  collect  all
amounts  due  according  to  the  contractual  terms  of  the  loan
agreement.    Impaired  loans  include  all  loans  which  are  on
nonaccrual,  delinquent  as  to  principal  and  interest  for  90  days  or
greater  and  all  loans  that  are  restructured  in  a  troubled  debt
restructuring  involving  a  modification  of  terms.  All  non-accruing
loans are reviewed for impairment on an individual basis.

Mortgage Servicing Rights Mortgage servicing rights are capitalized
and amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated
net  servicing  income.  The  Company  evaluates  its  capitalized
mortgage servicing rights for impairment each quarter. Loan type
and  note  rate  are  the  predominant  risk  characteristics  of  the
underlying  loans  used  to  stratify  capitalized  mortgage  servicing
rights  for  purposes  of  measuring  impairment.  Any  impairment  is
recognized through a valuation allowance.

Real Estate, Net Real estate acquired through loan foreclosures are
initially recorded at the lower of the related loan balance, less any
specific allowance for loss, or fair value less estimated selling costs.
Valuations are reviewed quarterly by management and an allowance
for losses is established if the carrying value of a property exceeds its
fair value less estimated selling costs. 

Premises and Equipment Land is carried at cost. Office buildings,
improvements,  furniture  and  equipment  are  carried  at  cost  less
accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated
useful lives of 5 to 40 years for office buildings and improvements
and 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment. 

Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets  and  for  Long-Lived  Assets  to 
Be  Disposed  Of The  Company  reviews  long-lived  assets  and
certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or
changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  the  carrying  amount  of  an
asset may not be recoverable. 

Investment in Limited Partnerships The Company has investments
in limited partnerships that invest in low to moderate income housing
projects  that  generate  tax  credits  for  the  Company.  The  Company
accounts for the earnings or losses from the limited partnerships on
the equity method. 

Intangible  Assets Goodwill  resulting  from  acquisitions  is  not
amortized but is tested for impairment annually in accordance with
the  requirements  of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards
(SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Deposit base
intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis as the deposits run
off. The Company reviews the recoverability of the carrying value of
these  assets  annually  or  whenever  an  event  occurs  indicating  that
they may be impaired. 

Stock-Based  Compensation On  January  1,  2006,  the  Company
adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS)  No.
123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R), which requires
companies to recognize as compensation expense the grant-date fair
value  of  stock  awards  issued.  The  Company  adopted  FAS  123R
using  the  modified  prospective  transition  method.  In  accordance
with  the  modified  prospective  transition  method,  the  Company’s
Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for  the  prior  periods  have  not
been restated to reflect the impact of FAS 123R. Had compensation
cost  for  the  Company’s  stock  based  plan  been  determined  in
accordance with SFAS No. 123R in prior years, the Company’s net
income  and  earnings  per  share  would  have  been  adjusted  to  the
following pro forma amounts:

Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the  future  tax  consequences  attributable  to  temporary  differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets
and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. 

Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution
and  is  computed  by  dividing  income  available  to  common
stockholders  by  the  weighted-average  number  of  common  shares
outstanding  for  the  period.  Diluted  EPS  reflects  the  potential

dilution  that  could  occur  if  securities  or  other  contracts  to  issue
common  stock  were  exercised  or  converted  into  common  stock  or
resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings
of the entity. 

Comprehensive  Income Comprehensive  income  is  defined  as  the
change in equity during a period from transactions and other events
from  nonowner  sources.  Comprehensive  income  is  the  total  of  net
income and other comprehensive income, which for the Company is
comprised  of  unrealized  gains  and  losses  on  securities  available 
for sale.

Segment Information The amount of each segment item reported is
the  measure  reported  to  the  chief  operating  decision  maker  for
purposes  of  making  decisions  about  allocating  resources  to  the
segment and assessing its performance. Adjustments and eliminations
made in preparing an enterprise’s general-purpose financial statements
and allocations of revenues, expenses and gains or losses are included
in determining reported segment profit or loss if they are included in
the measure of the segment’s profit or loss that is used by the chief
operating decision maker. Similarly, only those assets that are included
in  the  measure  of  the  segment’s  assets  that  are  used  by  the  chief
operating decision maker are reported for that segment. 

New  Accounting  Pronouncements The  Company  adopted
Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS)  No.  123
(revised  2004),  Share-Based  Payment  (FAS  123R)  on  January  1,
2006. It requires companies to recognize in compensation expense
the  grant-date  fair  value  of  stock  awards  issued.  The  Company
adopted  FAS  123R  using  the  modified  prospective  transition
method.  In  accordance  with  the  modified  prospective  transition
method,  the  Company’s  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for
prior  periods  have  not  been  restated  to  reflect  the  impact  of  FAS
123R. As a result of applying FAS 123R, the Company recognized
share-based  compensation  expense  of  $64,423  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 2006.

In  March  2006,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
(FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – an amendment of
FASB Statement No. 140. Effective as of the beginning of an entity’s
first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, an entity is
required  to  recognize  a  servicing  asset  or  liability  each  time  it
undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset. SFAS No. 156
requires that all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities
be initially measured at fair value and permits, but does not require,
the subsequent measurement of servicing assets and liabilities at fair
value.  It  also  permits  a  one-time  reclassification,  at  the  time  of
initial adoption, of available-for-sale securities to trading securities
by  entities  with  recognized  servicing  rights,  without  calling  into
question  the  treatment  of  other  available-for-sale  securities  under
Statement  115,  provided  that  the  available-for-sale  securities  are
identified  in  some  manner  as  offsetting  the  entity’s  exposure  to
changes  in  the  fair  value  of  servicing  assets  or  liabilities  that  a
servicer  elects  to  subsequently  measure  at  fair  value.  Separate
presentation  of  servicing  assets  and  liabilities  subsequently
measured at fair value are required to be disclosed in the statement

of financial position. The provisions of SFAS No. 156 were adopted
by the Company on January 1, 2007 and did not have a material
impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No.
109 (FIN  48).    FIN  48  requires  companies  to  recognize  in  their
financial statements the impact of a tax position, taken or expected
to be taken, if it is more likely than not that the position will be
sustained on audit based on the technical merits of the position.  The
Interpretation  requires  the  use  of  a  cumulative  probability
methodology to determine the amounts and probabilities of all of
the  possible  outcomes  that  could  be  realized  upon  the  ultimate
settlement  of  a  tax  position  using  the  facts,  circumstances,  and
information  available  at  the  reporting  date.    It  also  requires  that
interest  expense  be  accrued  on  the  difference  between  the  tax
position  recognized  in  accordance  with  the  Interpretation  and  the
amount  previously  taken  or  expected  to  be  taken  in  a  tax  return.
The provisions of FIN 48 were adopted by the Company on January
1,  2007  and  as  a  result,  the  Company  recognized  an  immaterial
increase  in  its  liability  recorded  for  tax  exposure  reserves  for
unrecognized  tax  benefits  upon  adoption.  The  adjustment  was
recorded  as  a  reduction  to  the  January  1,  2007  retained  earnings
balance  and  an  increase  in  tax  liability  in  accordance  with  the
requirements of FIN 48.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements.  This  Statement  defines  fair  value,  establishes  a
framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles,  and  expands  disclosures  about  the  use  of  fair  value  to
measure  assets  and  liabilities.  This  Statement  is  effective  for
financial  statements  issued  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after
November  15,  2007,  and  for  interim  periods  within  those  fiscal
years. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008 is
not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company’s results
of operations or financial position.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers’
Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans –
an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). This
Statement improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to
recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit
postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or
liability  in  its  statement  of  financial  position  and  to  recognize
changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur
through comprehensive income. An employer with publicly traded
equity securities is required to initially recognize the funded status
of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required
disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15,
2006. Since the Company’s only defined benefit pension plan is a
multiemployer  plan,  the  requirements  of  this  statement  do  not
apply and therefore SFAS No. 158 did not have any impact on the
Company’s  December  31,  2006  results  of  operations  or  financial
position.

In  September  2006,  the  SEC  issued  Staff  Accounting  Bulletin
No.  108,  Considering  the  Effects  of  Prior  Year  Misstatements  when
Quantifying  Misstatements  in  Current  Year  Financial  Statements  (SAB
108). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of

30

271060_Guts  2/26/07  12:58 PM  Page 31

the  carryover  or  reversal  of  prior  year  misstatements  should  be
considered  in  quantifying  a  current  year  misstatement.  The  SEC
staff  believes  that  registrants  should  quantify  errors  using  both  a
balance  sheet  and  an  income  statement  approach  and  evaluate
whether either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that,
when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered,
is  material.  SAB  108  is  effective  for  years  ending  on  or  after
November 15, 2006. The application of SAB 108 did not have any
impact on the Company’s December 31, 2006 results of operations
or financial position.

Derivative  Financial  Instruments The  Company  uses  derivative
financial instruments in order to manage the interest rate risk on

residential loans held for sale and its commitments to extend credit
for residential loans. The Company may also use interest rate swaps
to  manage  interest  rate  risk.  Derivative  financial  instruments
include commitments to extend credit and forward mortgage loan
sales commitments. 

Reclassifications Certain  amounts  in  the  consolidated  financial
statements for prior years have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

Proceeds from the sale of securities available for sale in 2006 were
$2,988,122  resulting  in  gross  gains  of  $48,122.  The  Company 
did  not  sell  any  securities  available  for  sale  during  2005  and 
proceeds  from  securities  available  for  sale  that  were  sold  during 
2004  were  $15,129,325,  resulting  in  gross  gains  of  $8,029  and 
gross  losses  of  $4,217.  The  Company  also  recognized  losses  of
$21,000 and $539,000 on a FHLMC preferred stock investment due

Retained earnings at December 31, 2006 included approximately
$8.8 million for which no provision for income taxes was made. This
amount represents allocations of income to bad debt deductions for
tax purposes. Reduction of amounts so allocated for purposes other
than absorbing losses will create income for tax purposes, which will
be  subject  to  the  then-current  corporate  income  tax  rate.  The
Company  has,  in  its  judgment,  made  reasonable  assumptions
relating  to  the  realization  of  deferred  tax  assets.  Based  upon  these
assumptions,  the  Company  has  determined  that  no  valuation
allowance is required with respect to the deferred tax assets.

The Company is located in Minnesota and files a state income tax
return  with  the  Minnesota  Department  of  Revenue  (MDR).    In

January 2007, the Company received notification that the MDR was
proposing  adjustments  of  $2.2  million  to  the  company's  2002
through  2004  Minnesota  state  tax  liability.    The  proposed
adjustments  relate  to  the  tax  treatment  of  the  inter-company
dividends  paid  to  the  Bank  by  Home  Federal  Holding.    The
Company  intends  to  challenge  the  proposed  adjustments.    A  tax
exposure  reserve  has  been  established  during  2002  through  2006
based on a range of probable outcomes, however, the final liability
will  depend  on  the  ultimate  resolution  of  this  issue.    In  2005,
Minnesota  state  tax  laws  were  changed  and  the  Company's
Minnesota  tax  filings  for  2005  and  forward  do  not  have  exposure
relating to the treatment of the inter-company dividend payment.

NOTE 15  Employee Benefits 
All eligible full-time employees of the Bank that were hired prior to
2002 were included in a noncontributory multiemployer retirement
plan sponsored by the Financial Institutions Retirement Fund (FIRF).
Effective September 1, 2002 the Bank froze the accrual of benefits for
existing participants and no new enrollments were permitted into the
plan. The actuarial present value of accumulated plan benefits and net
assets available for benefits relating to the Bank’s employees was not
available  at  December  31,  2006  because  such  information  is  not
accumulated for each participating institution. As of June 30, 2006,
the  FIRF  valuation  report  reflected  that  the  Bank  was  obligated  to
make a contribution totaling $217,688. The required contribution was
$235,465 in 2005 and $71,807 in 2004.  

The  Company  has  a  qualified,  tax-exempt  savings  plan  with  a
deferred  feature  qualifying  under  Section  401(k)  of  the  Internal
Revenue Code (the 401(k) Plan). All employees who have attained 18
years of age are eligible to participate in the Plan. Participants are
permitted  to  make  contributions  to  the  401(k)  Plan  equal  to  the
lesser  of  50%  of  the  participant’s annual  salary  or  the  maximum
allowed by law, which was $15,000 for 2006. The Company matches
25%  of  each  participant’s  contributions  up  to  a  maximum  of  8% 
of  the  participant’s annual  salary. Participant  contributions  and
earnings  are  fully  and  immediately  vested.  The  Company’s
contributions are vested on a three year cliff basis, are expensed when
made, and were $140,787, $122,428 and $118,665, in 2006, 2005
and 2004, respectively.

The Company has adopted an Employee Stock Ownership Plan
(the  ESOP)  that  meets  the  requirements  of  Section  (e)(7)  of  the
Internal  Revenue  Code  and  Section  407(d)(6)  of  the  Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA) and,
as  such  the  ESOP  is  empowered  to  borrow  in  order  to  finance
purchases  of  the  common  stock  of  HMN.  The  ESOP  borrowed
$6,085,770  from  the  Company  to  purchase  912,866  shares  of
common stock in the initial public offering of HMN. As a result of
a merger with Marshalltown Financial Corporation (MFC), the ESOP
borrowed $1,476,000 to purchase 76,933 shares of HMN common
stock to provide the employees from MFC with an ESOP benefit. The
ESOP debt requires quarterly payments of principal plus interest at
7.52%.  The  Company  has  committed  to  make  quarterly
contributions  to  the  ESOP  necessary  to  repay  the  loan  including
interest. The Company contributed $525,229 for 2006 and 2005 and
$526,552 for 2004. 

As the debt is repaid, ESOP shares that were pledged as collateral
for  the  debt  are  released  from  collateral  and  allocated  to  active
employees based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year.
The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with Statement of
Position  93-6,  Employers’  Accounting  for  Employee  Stock
Ownership  Plans.  Accordingly,  the  shares  pledged  as  collateral  are

reported as unearned ESOP shares in stockholders’ equity. As shares
are determined to be ratably released from collateral, the Company
reports compensation expense equal to the current market price of the
shares,  and  the  shares  become  outstanding  for  earnings  per  share
computations.  ESOP  compensation  benefit  expense  was  $822,116,
$756,166 and $670,112, respectively, for 2006, 2005 and 2004. 

All employees of the Bank are eligible to participate in the ESOP
after they attain age 21 and complete one year of service during which
they  worked  at  least  1,000  hours.  A  summary  of  the  ESOP  share
allocation is as follows for the years ended:

In June 1995, the Company adopted the 1995 Stock Option and
Incentive Plan (1995 Plan). The provisions of the 1995 Plan expired
on April 25, 2005 and options may no longer be granted from the
plan.  At  December  31,  2006,  there  were  3,000  unvested  and
113,774  vested  options  under  the  1995  Plan  that  remained
unexercised. These options vest over a 5 year period, expire 10 years
from the date of grant, and have an average exercise price of $12.13.
In March 2001, the Company adopted the HMN Financial, Inc.
2001 Omnibus Stock Plan (2001 Plan). The purpose of the 2001
Plan is to promote the interests of the Company and its stockholders
by  providing  key  personnel  with  an  opportunity  to  acquire  a
proprietary interest in the Company and reward them for achieving
a high level of corporate performance and thereby develop a stronger
incentive to put forth maximum effort for the success and growth of
the Company. The total number of shares of HMN common stock
available for distribution under the 2001 Plan in either restricted
stock or stock options is 400,000 and is subject to adjustment for
future  stock  splits,  stock  dividends  and  similar  changes  to  the
capitalization of the Company. No more than 100,000 shares from
the 2001 Plan may be issued as restricted stock.

Prior  to  January  1,  2006  the  Company  used  the  intrinsic  value
method  as  described  in  APB  Opinion  No.  25  and  related
interpretations to account for its stock incentive plans. Accordingly,
there  were  no  charges  or  credits  to  expense  with  respect  to  the
granting or exercise of options since the options were issued at fair
value on the respective grant dates. On January 1, 2006 the Company
adopted  FAS  No.  123(R),  which  replaced  FAS  No.  123  and
supercedes APB Opinion No. 25. In accordance with this standard, in
2006  the  Company  recognized  compensation  expense  relating  to
stock options that vested during the year. The amount of the expense
was determined under the fair value method. Pro forma disclosures for
years prior to 2006 are included in Note 1.

The fair value for each option grant is estimated on the date of
the grant using a Black Scholes option valuation model. There were
no options  granted  in  2006.  The  following  table  shows  the
assumptions that were used in determining the fair value of options
granted during the indicated years:

On January 23, 2007 the Company declared a cash dividend of
$0.25  per  share  payable  on  March  7,  2007,  to  stockholders  of 
record  on  February  16,  2007.  The  annualized  dividend  payout
ratios  for  2006,  2005  and  2004  were  42.61%,  38.02%  and
36.36%, respectively.

The  Company’s  certificate  of  incorporation  authorizes  the
issuance of up to 500,000 shares of preferred stock, but to date no
shares have been issued.

In  order  to  grant  a  priority  to  eligible  accountholders  in  the
event of future liquidation, the Bank, at the time of conversion to a
stock  savings  bank,  established  a  liquidation  account  equal  to  its
regulatory capital as of September 30, 1993. In the event of future
liquidation of the Bank, an eligible accountholder who continues to
maintain  their  deposit  account  shall  be  entitled  to  receive  a
distribution from the liquidation account. The total amount of the
liquidation  account  will  be  decreased  as  the  balance  of  eligible
accountholders are reduced subsequent to the conversion, based on
an annual determination of such balance. 

The  Bank  may  not  declare  or  pay  a  cash  dividend  to  the
Company without filing a capital distribution application with the
OTS if the total amount of the dividends for the year exceeds the
Bank’s net income for the year plus the Bank’s retained net income
for  the  preceding  two  years.  Additional  limitations  on  dividends
declared or paid on, or repurchases of, the Bank’s capital stock are
tied  to  the  Bank’s  level  of  compliance  with  its  regulatory  capital
requirements.

NOTE 18  Federal Home Loan Bank Investment and Regulatory

Capital Requirements 
The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, is
required to hold a specified number of shares of capital stock, which
are carried at cost, in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines.
The Bank met this requirement at December 31, 2006.

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered  by  the  federal  banking  agencies.  Failure  to  meet
minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and
possibly  additional  discretionary  actions  by  regulators  that,  if
undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s
financial  statements.  Under  capital  adequacy  guidelines  and  the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must
meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures
of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as
calculated  under  regulatory  accounting  practices.  The  Bank’s
capital  amounts  and  classification  are  also  subject  to  qualitative
judgments  by  the  regulators  about  components,  risk  weightings
and other factors.

Quantitative  measures  established  by  regulations  to  ensure
capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts
and ratios (set forth in the following table) of Tier I or Core capital,
and Risk-based capital (as defined in the regulations) to total assets
(as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2006 and
2005, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which
it was subject.

Management  believes  that  based  upon  the  Bank’s  capital
calculations at December 31, 2006 and 2005 and other conditions
consistent  with  the  Prompt  Corrective  Actions  provisions  of  the
OTS regulations, the Bank would be categorized as well capitalized.

At December 31, 2006 and 2005 the Bank’s capital amounts and ratios are also presented for actual capital, required capital and excess

capital including amounts and ratios in order to qualify as being well capitalized under the Prompt Corrective Actions regulations:

NOTE 19  Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk 
The  Company  is  a  party  to  financial  instruments  with  off-balance
sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs
of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to
extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements
of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in
the balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect
the extent of involvement by the Company.

The  Company’s  exposure  to  credit  loss  in  the  event  of
nonperformance  by  the  other  party  to  the  financial  instrument  for
commitments to extend credit is represented by the contract amount
of these commitments. The Company uses the same credit policies in
making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments  to  extend  credit  are  agreements  to  lend  to  a
customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established
in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates
or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since
a portion of the commitments are expected to expire without being
drawn  upon,  the  total  commitment  amounts  do  not  necessarily
represent  future  cash  requirements.  The  Bank  evaluates  each
customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of
collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension
of credit,  is  based  on  the  loan  type  and  on  management’s credit
evaluation  of  the  borrower.  Collateral  consists  primarily  of
residential and commercial real estate and personal property.

Forward commitments represent commitments to sell loans to a
third party and are entered into in the normal course of business by
the Bank.

The  Bank  issued  standby  letters  of  credit  which  guarantee  the
performance  of  customers  to  third  parties.  The  standby  letters  of
credit  outstanding  at  December  31,  2006  expire  over  the  next  3
months  and  totaled  $680,000  at  December  31,  2006  and  $1.7
million  at  December  31,  2005.  The  letters  of  credit  were
collateralized  primarily  with  commercial  real  estate  mortgages.
Since the conditions under which the Bank is required to fund the
standby letters of credit may not materialize, the cash requirements
are expected to be less than the total outstanding commitments.

NOTE 20  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The  Company  originates  and  purchases  single-family  residential
loans  for  sale  into  the  secondary  market  and  enters  into
commitments  to  sell  those  loans  in  order  to  mitigate  the  interest
rate risk associated with holding the loans until they are sold. The
Company accounts for these commitments in accordance with SFAS
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. 
The Company has commitments outstanding to extend credit to
future  borrowers  that  had  not  closed  prior  to  the  end  of  the  year,
which is referred to as its mortgage pipeline. As commitments to
originate loans enter the mortgage pipeline, the Company generally
enters into commitments to sell the loans into the secondary market.
The commitments to originate and sell loans are derivatives that are
recorded at market value. As a result of marking these derivatives to
market  for  the  period  ended  December  31,  2006,  the  Company
recorded a decrease in other liabilities of $4,802 and a net gain on
the sale of loans of $4,802.   

As of December 31, 2006 the commitments to sell loans held for
sale  are  derivatives  that  do  not  qualify  for  hedge  accounting.  As  a
result, these derivatives are marked to market. The loans held for sale
that are not hedged are recorded at the lower of cost or market. As a
result of marking these loans, the Company recorded an increase in
loans held for sale of $3,310 and a decrease in other assets of $3,310.

NOTE 21  Fair Value of Financial Instruments
SFAS  No.  107,  Disclosures  about  Fair  Values  of  Financial  Instruments,
requires disclosure of estimated fair values of the Company’s financial
instruments, including assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items for
which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The fair value estimates
are  made  as  of  December  31,  2006  and  2005  based  upon  relevant
market  information,  if  available,  and  upon  the  characteristics  of  the
financial  instruments  themselves.  Because  no  market  exists  for  a
significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value
estimates  are  based  upon  judgments  regarding  future  expected  loss
experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various
financial instruments, and other factors. The estimates are subjective in
nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment
and  therefore  cannot  be  determined  with  precision.  Changes  in
assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair  value  estimates  are  based  only  on  existing  financial
instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated
future  business  or  the  value  of  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  not
considered financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications
related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have
a significant  effect  on  the  fair  value  estimates  and  have  not  been
considered in any of the estimates.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments
are shown below. Following the table, there is an explanation of the
methods  and  assumptions  used  to  estimate  the  fair  value  of  each
class of financial instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents  The carrying amount of cash and cash
equivalents approximates their fair value.
Securities Available for Sale  The fair values of securities were based
upon quoted market prices.
Loans Held for Sale  The fair values of loans held for sale were based
upon quoted market prices for loans with similar interest rates and
terms to maturity.
Loans Receivable  The fair values of loans receivable were estimated
for groups of loans with similar characteristics. The fair value of the
loan  portfolio,  with  the  exception  of  the  adjustable  rate  portfolio,
was calculated by discounting the scheduled cash flows through the
estimated maturity using anticipated prepayment speeds and using
discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent
in each loan portfolio. The fair value of the adjustable loan portfolio
was estimated by grouping the loans with similar characteristics and
comparing the characteristics of each group to the prices quoted for
similar types of loans in the secondary market.
Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  Stock    The  carrying  amount  of  FHLB
stock approximates its fair value.
Accrued Interest Receivable  The carrying amount of accrued interest
receivable approximates its fair value since it is short-term in nature
and does not present unanticipated credit concerns.
Deposits    Under  SFAS  No.  107,  the  fair  value  of  deposits  with  no
stated maturity such as checking, savings and money market accounts,

is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of certificates
of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows
using as discount rates the rates that were offered by the Company as
of December 31, 2006 and 2005 for deposits with maturities similar
to the remaining maturities of the existing certificates of deposit.

The fair value estimate for deposits does not include the benefit
that results from the low cost funding provided by the Company’s
existing deposits and long-term customer relationships compared to
the  cost  of  obtaining  different  sources  of  funding.  This  benefit  is
commonly referred to as the core deposit intangible.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances  The fair values of advances with
fixed maturities are estimated based on discounted cash flow analysis
using  as  discount  rates  the  interest  rates  charged  by  the  FHLB  at
December 31, 2006 and 2005 for borrowings of similar remaining
maturities.
Accrued Interest Payable  The carrying amount of accrued interest
payable approximates its fair value since it is short-term in nature.
Commitments to Extend Credit  The fair values of commitments to
extend  credit  for  2006  and  2005  are  estimated  using  the  fees
normally  charged  to  enter  into  similar  agreements,  taking  into
account  the  remaining  terms  of  the  agreements  and  the  present
creditworthiness of the counter parties.
Commitments to Sell Loans  The fair values of commitments to sell
loans  for  2006  and  2005  are  estimated  using  the  quoted  market
prices for loans with similar interest rates and terms to maturity.

NOTE 23  Business Segments
The Bank has been identified as a reportable operating segment in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 131.  SFC and HMN, the
holding  company,  did  not  meet  the  quantitative  thresholds  for  a
reportable segment and therefore are included in the “Other” category.  
The  Company  evaluates  performance  and  allocates  resources

based  on  the  segment’s  net  income,  return  on  average  assets  and
return  on  average  equity.  Each  corporation  is  managed  separately
with its own officers and board of directors.

The  following  table  sets  forth  certain  information  about  the
reconciliations  of  reported  net  income  and  assets  for  each  of  the
Company’s reportable segments.

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

HMN Financial, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HMN Financial, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31,

2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash

flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2006. These consolidated financial statements are the

responsibility  of  the  Company’s  management.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  these  consolidated  financial

statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial

position of HMN Financial, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and

their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally

accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United

States), the effectiveness of HMN Financial, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based

on, criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of

the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 1, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s

assessment of, and the effective operation of, internal control over financial reporting.
