Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Participants and Administrator of
     Home Federal Savings Bank Employees’
     Savings and Profit Sharing Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Home Federal Savings Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2007 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

HOME FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK EMPLOYEES’
SAVINGS AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2007 and 2006
(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
  (a)   Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
  (b)   Adoption of New Accounting Standard
In December 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans. This FSP requires the Plan to value the holdings of investment contracts at fair value. The FSP states that contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. As required for the FSP, the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.
This FSP is effective for financial statement periods ending after December 15, 2006, at which time the Plan adopted it.
  (c)   Custodian of Investments
FiServ Trust Corporation is the trustee and custodian of all Plan assets.
  (d)   Plan Administration
Home Federal Savings Bank (the Company) is the administrator of the Plan. Alliance Benefit Group performs the participant accounting.
  (e)   Valuation of Investments
Investments are stated at their fair market value. The Plan holds investments in guaranteed investment contracts (GICs) as part of the collective trust funds. GICs are reported at fair value. The fair values of the GICs are calculated by discounting the related cash flows based on current yields of similar instruments with comparable durations. As required by the FSP, the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. Investments in mutual funds are valued using daily net asset value calculations performed by the funds and published by the National Association of Securities Dealers. Investments in common stock are valued at the quoted market price. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are reinvested in the respective funds.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis. Net realized gains or losses are recognized by the Plan upon the sale of its investments or portions thereof based on average cost.

SAVINGS AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2007 and 2006
  (f)   Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
  (g)   Costs and Expenses
Asset management fees ranging between 38 and 85 basis points are assessed annually on average net asset values and are deducted from the individual funds. In addition, the Company paid accounting fees totaling $2,714 and $10,330 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.
  (h)   Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.
(2)   Description of the Plan
The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description for more complete information.
  (a)   General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan, qualified under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan includes 401(k) provisions, which allow participants to direct the Company to contribute a portion of their compensation to the Plan on a pretax basis through payroll deductions. The Plan is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
All Company employees who have attained the age of 18 are eligible to participate in the Plan, subject to entry dates.
  (b)   Funding Policy
Participants have the ability to contribute up to 50% of their monthly compensation on a pretax basis to the Plan. Participant contributions are subject to the Internal Revenue Service maximum annual limits of $15,500 during 2007 and $15,000 during 2006. The Company matches 25% of each participant’s contribution not in excess of 8% of the participant’s annual salary. Participants over the age of 50 were allowed to contribute an additional $5,000 as a “catch-up” contribution during 2007 and 2006, as allowed by the tax law changes of 2001.
The Company may, in its sole discretion, contribute to the Plan an amount to be determined from year to year (the Non-Elective Contribution). Such contributions would be allocated to the accounts of participants in the ratio that each participant’s compensation for the plan year bears to the total compensation of all participants for the plan year. There were no such contributions during 2007 or 2006.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2007 and 2006
  (c)   Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and allocations of the Company’s contribution and Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant contributions or account balances, as defined.
  (d)   Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the actual earnings thereon.
Employees hired after January 1, 2002 are subject to a 3-year cliff vesting for the employer matching contributions. All other employees are immediately vested in the employer contributions received during the plan year.
Forfeited amounts totaled $5,126 and $17,049 for 2007 and 2006, respectively, and are used to reduce future employer match obligations. In 2007, these forfeitures plus forfeitures from prior years and earnings on prior year forfeitures of $50,688 and $10,480 were used to reduce current year employer contributions and plan fees, respectfully.
  (e)   Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their vested account balance. Loan terms range from 1 to 5 years, except loans used to purchase a primary residence which may have a term up to 15 years. All loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a rate equal to the prime rate plus 1%. Principal and interest payments must be made monthly.
  (f)   Concentration of Market Risk
At December 31, 2007 and 2006, approximately 14% and 17%, respectively, of the Plan’s net assets were invested in the common stock of HMN Financial, Inc. The underlying value of the HMN Financial, Inc. Common Stock is entirely dependent upon the performance of HMN Financial, Inc. and the market’s evaluation of such performance. It is at least reasonably possible that changes in the fair value of HMN Financial, Inc. Common Stock in the near term could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.
  (g)   Distributions
Upon termination of employment for any reason, the vested portion of the participant’s account balance becomes fully payable.
  (h)   Participating Employers
The Company is a member of a controlled group of corporations as defined in Section 414(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. All members of the controlled group participated in the Plan.

(6)    Income Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service (the IRS) determined and informed the Company by a letter dated May 11, 1994 that the Plan and related trust, as then designed, were in compliance with the provisions of 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the IRC) and were thereby exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the code. The Plan has been amended in its entirety since receiving this determination letter. During 1999, the Plan, as amended, was again submitted to the IRS for determination of its tax-exempt status. A favorable determination was received on March 15, 2000. The Plan was also amended during 2003 and a favorable determination letter was received on November 17, 2003; therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements. The Company believes the Plan continues to qualify and operate as designed.
(7)    Party-in-Interest Transactions
The Plan engages in investment transactions involving the acquisition or disposition of HMN Financial, Inc. common stock. HMN Financial, Inc. is the holding company of Home Federal Savings Bank and is a party-in-interest. Also, certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by Alliance Benefit Group (ABG). ABG is appointed as the third-party administrator of the Plan as defined by the Basic Plan Document and is a party-in-interest. These transactions are covered by an exemption from the “prohibited transactions” provisions of ERISA and the IRC.
