The consolidated financial statements presented in this quarterly report include the accounts of Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Home Federal Bank (the "Bank"). The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and are unaudited. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods included herein have been made.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2005 ("2005 Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on December 9, 2005.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are considered reasonably possible and may have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, and thus actual results could differ from the amounts reported and disclosed herein. The Company considers the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing rights, and deferred income taxes to be critical accounting estimates.

The accounting estimate related to the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting estimate because it is highly susceptible to change from period to period requiring management to make assumptions about future losses on loans. The impact of a sudden large loss could deplete the allowance and potentially require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would negatively affect earnings.

The most critical accounting policy associated with mortgage servicing is the methodology used to determine the fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights, which requires the development of a number of estimates, the most critical of which is the mortgage loan prepayment speeds assumption. The Company performs a quarterly review of mortgage servicing rights for potential declines in value. This review may include an independent appraisal by an outside party of the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights.

Deferred income taxes are computed using the asset and liability approach as prescribed in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the currently enacted tax rates applicable to the period in which the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of the existing assets and liabilities are expected to be reported in the Company's income tax returns.

At March 31, 2006, there were no material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in the Company's 2005 Form 10-K.

On May 18, 2004, the Board of Directors of Home Federal Savings and Loan Association of Nampa (the "Association") unanimously adopted a Plan of Reorganization and Stock Issuance. At the special meeting of members of the Association held on September 20, 2004, members approved the Plan of Reorganization and Stock

6

<PAGE>

Issuance and the establishment of the Home Federal Foundation, Inc. (the "Foundation") by more than the required majority of the total votes entitled to be cast at the special meeting.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and Stock Issuance, the Association: (i) converted to a federal stock savings bank (Stock Savings Bank) as the successor to the Association in its current mutual form; (ii) organized a Stock Holding Company as a federally-chartered corporation that owns 100% of the common stock of the Stock Savings Bank; and (iii) organized a Mutual Holding Company as a federally-chartered mutual holding company that owns at least 51% of the common stock of the Stock Holding Company for as long as the Mutual Holding Company remains in existence. The Stock Savings Bank succeeded to the business and operations of the Association in its mutual form, and the Stock Holding Company sold 40.0% of its common stock in a public stock offering that was completed on December 6, 2004.

All depositors who had membership or liquidation rights with respect to the Association as of December 6, 2004 (the effective date of the reorganization) continue to have such rights solely with respect to the Mutual Holding Company for as long as they continue to hold deposit accounts with the Bank. In addition, all persons who become depositors of the Bank subsequent to the reorganization have membership and liquidation rights with respect to the Mutual Holding Company. Borrower members of the Association at the time of the reorganization have the same membership rights in the Mutual Holding Company that they had in the Association immediately prior to the reorganization for as long as their existing borrowings remain outstanding.

On December 6, 2004, the Bank completed the mutual holding company reorganization and minority stock offering. The Company sold 6,083,500 shares of its common stock, $0.01 par value, at a price of $10.00 per share. As part of the reorganization and minority stock offering, the Company also established and capitalized the Foundation with a $1.8 million one-time contribution, which consisted of 146,004 shares of its common stock and $365,010 in cash. In addition, the Company issued 8,979,246 additional shares, or 59.04% of its outstanding shares, to Home Federal MHC, a federally-chartered mutual holding company.

On November 7, 2005, the Company completed the conversion of its core processing system, including the conversion of its internal check processing system to an outside vendor. After the conversion, the Company experienced difficulties reconciling certain general ledger accounts related to the new check processing system. The Company assembled a team dedicated to researching and resolving any discrepancies in reconciling the affected general ledger accounts. As a result of the research, the Company wrote-off an immaterial amount of items that were determined to be uncollectible. The Company also established new procedures and controls for the reconciliation of the related general ledger accounts. The Company does not anticipate any material losses related to this issue in the future.

On June 23, 2005, stockholders approved long-term stock-based benefit plans that enable the Company to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards to employees and directors. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share Based Payment, which requires the recognition of compensation costs relating to share based payment transactions in the financial statements. The Company has elected the modified prospective application method of reporting, which provides for no restatement of prior periods and no cumulative adjustment to equity accounts. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company elected to account for its stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value-based method of recognizing compensation costs outlined in Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and adopted the disclosure-only provisions under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.

Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP"). The purpose of the RRP is to promote the long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders by providing restricted stock as a means for attracting and retaining directors and key employees. The maximum number of shares that may be awarded under the RRP is 298,092. Restricted stock awards vest over a five-year period and, therefore, the fair value of these awards will be accrued ratably over a five-year period as compensation expense. As of March 31, 2006, restricted stock awards of 243,456 shares of common stock are outstanding. None of the 243,456 shares outstanding may be exercised as of March 31, 2006. The Company has an aggregate of 54,636 restricted shares available for future issuance under the RRP.

<PAGE>

Restricted stock activity is summarized in the following table:

Stock Option and Incentive Plan ("SOP"). The Company implemented the SOP to promote the long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders by providing an incentive to directors and key employees who contribute to the operating success of the Company. The maximum number of stock options and stock appreciation rights that may be issued under the SOP is 745,229. The exercise price of each option equals the fair market value of the Company's stock on the date of grant. The options vest over five years and expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company has an aggregate of 146,308 stock options available for future issuance under the SOP.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected life of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company's stock. Expected forfeiture rate is the estimated forfeiture rate based upon the employees in each separate group. Expected dividends represent the Company's estimated annual dividend rate over the expected life.

Stock option activity is summarized in the following table:

<PAGE>

Options outstanding at March 31, 2006 were as follows:

The total fair value of options granted was approximately $1.1 million. The fair value of the options granted is amortized ratably over the vesting period of the options. For the six months ended March 31, 2006, there were no cash proceeds received from the exercise of options. The following table illustrates the effect of the change, from applying the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), on the Company's results of operations for the three months ended and six months ended March 31, 2006.

As of March 31, 2005, no stock options had been granted by the Company.

The compensation expense yet to be recognized for stock-based awards that have been awarded but not vested is as follows:

Earnings per share ("EPS") is computed using the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the Company's net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income or loss by diluted weighted average shares outstanding, which include common stock equivalent shares outstanding using the treasury stock method, unless such shares are anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents arise

<PAGE>

from assumed conversion of outstanding stock options and from assumed vesting of shares awarded but not released under the Company's RRP plan. There were no restricted stock awards or stock options granted as of March 31, 2005. Therefore, basic and diluted EPS are the same as of March 31, 2005. ESOP shares are not considered outstanding for earnings per share purposes until they are committed to be released.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the periods indicated:

In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments. The Statement provides entities with relief from having to separately determine the fair value of an embedded derivative that would otherwise be required to be bifurcated from its host contract in accordance with SFAS No. 133. Statement 155 allows an entity to make an irrevocable election to measure such a hybrid financial instrument at fair value in its entirety, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Statement also (1) clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to Statement 133; (2) establishes a requirement for holders of securitized financial assets to evaluate whether the interest is a freestanding derivative or a hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation; (3) clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives; and (4) eliminates the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. The Statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired, issued or subject to a re-measurement event occurring after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets. The Statement provides relief for loan servicers that use derivatives to economically hedge fluctuations in the fair value of their servicing rights. The Statement allows servicers to opt to measure their servicing rights at fair value, which is the same accounting basis used to measure derivatives. A servicer can also choose to continue applying the existing amortization method in SFAS No. 140. The Statement also requires additional disclosures regardless of which method is applied. The Statement is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

On April 19, 2006, the State of Idaho Department of Finance issued a cease and desist order with respect to sales of unregistered securities in 2005 by a former investment representative of the Company. The Company is aware of approximately $193,000 of unauthorized sales outstanding and is cooperating fully with the Department of Finance. At this time, the outcome of the action cannot be predicted and its financial impact, if any, cannot be assessed.

The Company was organized as a federally-chartered stock corporation at the direction of the Association in connection with its mutual holding company reorganization. The reorganization was completed on December 6, 2004. In connection with the reorganization, the Association converted to a federally-chartered stock savings bank and changed its corporate title to "Home Federal Bank." In the reorganization, the Company sold 40.00% of its outstanding shares of common stock (6,083,500 shares) to the public and issued 59.04% of its outstanding shares of common stock (8,979,246 shares) to Home Federal MHC, the mutual holding company parent of the Company. In connection with the reorganization, the Company also established and capitalized the Foundation with a $1.8 million one-time contribution, which consisted of 146,004 shares of its common stock and $365,010 in cash. The Company's common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "HOME" and is included in the America's Community Bankers NASDAQ Index.

The Bank was founded in 1920 as a building and loan association and reorganized as a federal mutual savings and loan association in 1936. The Bank is a community-oriented financial institution dedicated to serving the financial service needs of consumers and businesses within our market area. The Bank's primary business is attracting deposits from the general public and using these funds to originate loans. We emphasize the origination of loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, residential real estate, residential development and construction, and commercial real estate. To a lesser extent, we originate other types of real estate loans, commercial business loans and consumer loans.

The Bank serves the Treasure Valley region of southwestern Idaho, that includes Ada, Canyon, Elmore and Gem Counties, through our 14 full-service banking offices and two loan centers. Nearly 40% of the state's population lives and works in the four counties served by Home Federal Bank. Ada County has the largest population and includes the city of Boise, the state capitol. Home Federal Bank maintains its largest branch presence in Ada County with eight locations, followed by Canyon County with four branches, including the Company's corporate headquarters in Nampa. The two remaining branches are located in Elmore and Gem Counties.

The local economy is primarily urban with the city of Boise being the most populous of the markets that we serve, followed by Nampa, the state's second largest city. The regional economy is well diversified with government, healthcare, manufacturing, high technology, call centers and construction providing sources of employment. In addition, agriculture and related industries continue to be key components of the economy in southwestern Idaho. Generally, sources of employment are concentrated in Ada and Canyon Counties and include the headquarters of Micron Technology, Albertsons, Washington Group International, J.R. Simplot Company and Boise Cascade, LLC. Other major employers include Hewlett-Packard, two regional medical centers and Idaho state government agencies. The city of Boise is also home to Boise State University, the state's largest and fastest growing university.

Allowance for Loan Losses. Management believes that the accounting estimate related to the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting estimate because it is highly susceptible to change from period to period. This requires management to make assumptions about future losses on loans as the impact of a sudden large loss could deplete the allowance and potentially require increased provisions to replenish it, which would negatively affect earnings.

Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of three components: formula, specific and general allowances. The formula allowance is determined by applying an estimated loss percentage to various groups of loans based on historical measures such as the amount and type of classified loans, past due ratios and loss experience, which could affect the collectibility of the respective loan types. The specific allowance component is created when management believes that the collectibility of a specific large loan has been impaired and a loss is probable. The general allowance element relates to assets with no well-defined deficiency or weakness and takes into consideration loss that is inherent within the portfolio but has not been realized.

Mortgage Servicing Rights. Mortgage servicing rights represent the present value of the future loan servicing fees from the right to service loans for others. The most critical accounting policy associated with mortgage servicing is the methodology used to determine the fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights, which requires the development of a number of estimates, the most critical of which is the mortgage loan prepayment speeds assumption. The Company performs a quarterly review of mortgage servicing rights for potential declines in value. This review may include an independent appraisal by an outside party of the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights.

Deferred Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes are reported for temporary differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes. Deferred taxes are computed using the asset and liability approach as prescribed in SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the currently enacted tax rates applicable to the period in which the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities are expected to be reported in the Company's income tax returns. The deferred tax provision for the year is equal to the net change in the net deferred tax asset from the beginning to the end of the year, less amounts applicable to the change in value related to investments available for sale. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period that includes the enactment date. The primary differences between financial statement income and taxable income result from depreciation expense, mortgage servicing rights, loan loss reserves and dividends received from the FHLB. Deferred income taxes do not include a liability for pre-1988 bad debt deductions allowed to thrift institutions that may be recaptured if the institution fails to qualify as a thrift for income tax purposes in the future.

General. Total assets increased $57.7 million, or 8.4%, to $747.3 million at March 31, 2006 from $689.6 million at September 30, 2005. Loans receivable increased $45.3 million, or 10.5% to $476.2 million to lead the overall asset growth. The demand for loans was funded with increased deposits of $35.3 million and FHLB advances of $20.6 million.

Assets. For the six months ended March 31, 2006 total assets increased $57.7 million. The increases and decreases were primarily concentrated in the following asset categories:

Mortgage-backed securities increased $11.2 million to $207.0 million at March 31, 2006, from $195.8 million at September 30, 2005. For the six months ended March 31, 2006, the Company purchased $26.2 million of mortgage-backed securities that consisted primarily of hybrid adjustable and fixed rate securities with terms of 15 years or less. The Company purchases mortgage-backed securities to supplement loan originations during periods when the Company is not able to originate the desired type or volume of portfolio loans and to manage interest rate sensitivity.

Loans receivable, net, increased $45.3 million to $476.2 million at March 31, 2006, from $430.9 million at September 30, 2005. Single-family residential loans and commercial real estate loans increased $41.9 million and $8.2 million, respectively, during the six months ended March 31, 2006. During the period, the Company purchased $38.8 million of hybrid adjustable, one-to four-family mortgage loans. Purchased mortgage loans allow the Company to increase interest-earning assets, manage interest rate risk, and geographically diversify our mortgage loan portfolio at a relatively low overhead cost. As of March 31, 2006, over 90% of the Company's loan portfolio is secured by real estate, either as primary or secondary collateral.

Property and equipment, net increased $1.3 million to $13.3 million at March 31, 2006, from $12.0 million at September 30, 2005. The Company completed the conversion of its core processing system during the quarter ended December 31, 2005. The majority of the increase in property and equipment is for software and hardware related to the conversion.

Deposits. Deposits increased $35.3 million, or 8.9%, to $431.6 million at March 31, 2006, from $396.3 million at September 30, 2005. Certificates of deposit accounted for the majority of the increase in total deposits with certificates of 12 to 23 month terms having the largest increase in balances. The following table details the changes in deposit accounts:

Borrowings. Advances from the FHLB increased $20.6 million, or 11.7%, to $196.5 million at March 31, 2006, from $175.9 million at September 30, 2005. The Company uses advances from the FHLB as an alternative funding source to deposits in order to manage funding costs, reduce interest rate risk, and to leverage the balance sheet.

Equity. Stockholders' equity increased $3.0 million, or 3.0%, to $104.4 million at March 31, 2006, from $101.4 million at September 30, 2005. The increase was primarily a result of the $3.0 million in net income and the allocation of ESOP shares and equity compensation totaling $726,000, offset by $595,000 of cash dividends paid to stockholders. On March 24, 2006, the Company paid $0.055 per share in cash dividends to stockholders of record, excluding shares held by Home Federal MHC.

General. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $1.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

The following table reconciles the Company's actual net income to pro forma net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, exclusive of the gain on the sale of the branch, as adjusted for federal and state taxes:

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $140,000, or 2.5%, to $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to an increase in average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities of $76.6 million and $63.2 million, respectively, which offset the compression of the Company's net interest margin.

The Company's net interest margin decreased 34 basis points to 3.33% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, from 3.67% for the same quarter last year. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 47 basis points to 2.86% for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to 2.39% for the second quarter of the prior year. The decline in the net interest margin reflects the relatively flat yield curve that currently exists, as the cost of shorter-term deposits and borrowed funds increased more rapidly than the yield on longer-term assets. Although the Company believes the repricing of existing and new loans over time will help counter the trend in net interest margin, pressure will likely continue in the near term as a result of the flat yield curve environment.

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $1.2 million, or 13.9%, to $9.6 million, from $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase during the quarter was primarily attributable to the $76.6 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets and an increase in the yield on interest-earning assets to 5.67% as a result of the general increase in interest rates.

The following table compares detailed average earning asset balances, associated yields, and resulting changes in interest and dividend income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005:

On May 18, 2005, the FHLB indefinitely suspended dividends on all classes of its stock as part of its recapitalization plans. The suspension of FHLB dividends has not had a significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.0 million, or 35.3%, to $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased $63.2 million, or 13.0%, to $550.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $487.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase was primarily a result of growth in certificates of deposits and additional advances from the FHLB. As a result of general market rate increases following Federal Reserve rate hikes during the past several quarters, the average cost of funds for total interest-bearing liabilities increased 47 basis points to 2.86% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to 2.39% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

The following table details average balances, cost of funds and the change in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005:
