HOME FEDERAL BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
Nampa, ID (July 19, 2006) - Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq GSM: HOME), the parent company of Home Federal Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $1.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to $1.8 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 was $4.6 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to $3.5 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the same nine-month period a year ago. Results for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 included the $386,000 pre-tax gain on the sale of a former branch and a $1.8 million pre-tax expense for establishing the Home Federal Foundation, Inc. (the "Foundation"). Excluding the gain on the sale of the branch and the expense for establishing the Foundation, the Company had net income of $4.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2005.
"Our performance this quarter reflects steady loan and core deposit growth and continued quality of the loan portfolio despite a challenging interest rate environment as a result of the continued flat yield curve," said Daniel L. Stevens, Chairman and CEO. "During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, we experienced a 19% increase in interest and dividend income, net loans increased 14% and deposits were up 15%, as compared to the same period a year ago."
The following table reconciles the Company's actual net income to pro forma net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 exclusive of the sale of the branch and the contribution to the Foundation, as adjusted for federal and state taxes (in thousands, except per share data):

Home Federal Bancorp, Inc.Third Quarter Highlights (at or for the periods ended June 30, 2006 compared to June 30, 2005):
Operating Results
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, which consisted of net interest income before the provision for loan losses plus noninterest income, increased 7% to $8.8 million for the quarter, compared to $8.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses increased 3% to $5.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to $5.6 million for the same quarter of the prior year.
Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 increased 9% to $25.8 million, compared to $23.6 million for the same period of last year. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses increased 8% to $17.4 million, compared to $16.1 million for the same period of last year.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2006, net interest income after provision for loan losses increased 3% to $5.6 million, compared to $5.5 million for the same quarter a year ago. A provision for loan losses of $175,000 was established by management in connection with its analysis of the loan portfolio for the current quarter, compared to a provision for loan losses of $161,000 established for the same quarter of the prior year. Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 increased 9% to $17.1 million, compared to $15.6 million for the same period of the prior year.
The Company's net interest margin decreased 39 basis points to 3.25% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, from 3.64% for the same quarter last year. The net interest margin for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 decreased 20 basis points to 3.41% from 3.61% for the same period a year earlier. 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 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.
Noninterest income increased 13% to $3.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to $2.7 million for the same quarter a year ago. The increase was primarily attributable to a $246,000, or an 11%, increase in service charges and fees and a $201,000 write-up of the value of the mortgage servicing rights. This compares to a $200,000 write-down of the value of the mortgage servicing rights for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. Other noninterest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 included a $456,000 gain from life insurance proceeds, which was not experienced in the quarter ended June 30, 2006. For the nine months ended June 30, 2006, noninterest income increased 11% to $8.3 million, compared to $7.6 million for the same period of the prior year. Increases in service charges and gain on sale of loans of $836,000 and $592,000 account for the majority of the increase. Other noninterest income for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 included a $386,000 gain on the sale of a

former branch and a $456,000 gain from life insurance proceeds, which was not experienced in the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 increased 11% to $6.1 million, from $5.5 million for the comparable period a year earlier. Compensation and benefits increased $657,000 to $3.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 as compared to $3.2 million for the same quarter a year ago. The majority of the increase is attributable to the establishment of the equity compensation plans during the prior fiscal year, annual merit increases, and an increase in employee commissions. The equity compensation plans include the Company's employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP"), 2005 Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP") and 2005 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The efficiency ratio was 69.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to 66.8% for the same quarter a year ago. The efficiency ratio indicates how much is spent on non-interest expenses as a percentage of total revenue.
Noninterest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 increased 1% to $18.1 million, compared to $17.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005. Noninterest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 included the $1.8 million contribution to the Foundation. Compensation and benefits increased $2.1 million to $11.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to $9.3 million for the same period a year ago. The majority of the increase is attributable to the establishment of the equity compensation plans during the prior fiscal year, annual merit increases, and increases in employee commissions and incentive plans. The efficiency ratio was 70.1% for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 compared to 75.3% for the same period of the prior year. Excluding the non-recurring contribution to the Foundation and the gain on sale of the former branch, the efficiency ratio was 68.7% for the nine months ended June 30, 2005.
Balance Sheet Growth
Total assets increased 11% to $756.7 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $679.2 million a year earlier. Net loans (excluding loans held for sale) at June 30, 2006 increased 14% to $494.0 million, compared to $433.9 million at June 30, 2005. Single family loans represented 63% of the Bank's loan portfolio at June 30, 2006, compared to 61% at June 30, 2005. Commercial real estate loans accounted for 27% of the Bank's loan portfolio at June 30, 2006, compared to 29% at June 30, 2005.
Credit quality remains exceptional, as non-performing assets were $30,000, or 0.004% of total assets, at June 30, 2006, compared to $1.1 million, or 0.15% of total assets, at June 30, 2005. The allowance for loan losses was $3.2 million, or 0.63% of gross loans, including loans held for sale, at June 30, 2006 compared to $2.9 million, or 0.66% of gross loans, including loans held for sale, at June 30, 2005.
Deposits increased 15% to $439.5 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $381.1 million at June 30, 2005. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $7.8 million, or 19%, to $48.8 million at June 30, 2006, compared to $41.0 million at June 30, 2005. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased $6.0 million, or 5%, to $132.7 million at June 30, 2006, compared to $126.7 million at June 30, 2005. Certificates of deposit increased $45.5 million, or 24%, to $233.6 million at June 30, 2006, compared to $188.1 million at June 30, 2005. The majority of the increase in certificates of deposits was in 12 to 23 month terms. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") increased 9% to $197.7 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $181.7 million at June 30, 2005. The Company utilizes advances from the FHLB as

an alternative funding source to retail deposits in order to manage funding costs, reduce interest rate risk and to leverage the Balance Sheet.
Stockholders' equity increased $2.3 million to $106.0 million at June 30, 2006, compared to $103.7 million at June 30, 2005. The increase was primarily the result of $6.3 million in net income for the period, $686,000 in earned ESOP shares and $623,000 equity compensation, offset by $1.2 million of cash dividends paid to stockholders and $3.9 million for the repurchase of 298,092 shares of common stock for the RRP plan. The Company's book value per share as of June 30, 2006 was $7.00 per share based upon 15,154,114 outstanding shares of common stock.
