| (1) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
| Basis of Presentation |
||
| The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. | ||
| Custodian of Investments |
||
| First Trust Corporation is the trustee and custodian of all Plan assets. | ||
| Plan Administration |
||
| Home Federal Savings Bank (the Company) is the administrator of the Plan. Alliance Benefit Group performs the participant accounting. | ||
| Valuation of Investments |
||
| Investments are stated at their fair market value. The collective trust funds are valued based on the market prices of the underlying investments in the funds. 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 notes 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. | ||
| 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. | ||
| 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 $12,525 and $8,375 in 2005 and 2004, respectively. | ||
| (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. | ||
| 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). |
7
| (2) | Description of the Plan (Continued) | |
| All Company employees who have attained the age of 18 are eligible to participate in the Plan, subject to entry dates. | ||
| 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 $14,000 during 2005 and $13,000 during 2004. 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 $4,000 and $3,000 as a “catch-up” contribution during 2005 and 2004, respectively, 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 2005 or 2004. | ||
| 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. | ||
| Vesting |
||
| Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the actual earnings thereon. | ||
| Employees hired prior to January 1, 1997 are immediately vested in the employer contributions received during the plan year. Employees hired January 1, 1997 and thereafter are subject to 5-year cliff vesting for the employer matching contribution. Effective January 1, 2002, the vesting period was reduced to 3-year cliff vesting for employer matching amounts received during 2002 and thereafter. Employer matching contributions received prior to 2002 remain subject to the 5-year vesting service requirement, as applicable. | ||
| Forfeited amounts totaled $7,460 and $14,362 for 2005 and 2004, respectively, and are used to reduce future employer match obligations. | ||
| 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. |

| (2) | Description of the Plan (Continued) | |
| Concentration of Market Risk |
||
| At December 31, 2005 and 2004, approximately 19% and 23%, 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. | ||
| Distributions |
||
| Upon termination of employment for any reason, the vested portion of the participant’s account balance becomes fully payable. | ||
| Participating Employers |
||
| The Company is a member of a controlled group of corporations as defined in Section 414(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. No members of the group other than the Company participated in the Plan prior to 1996. | ||
| (3) | Plan Termination | |
| The Company, by action of its board of directors, may terminate the Plan. All participants at the time of such termination shall be 100% vested in their account balances and shall be entitled to a benefit equal to the value of their accounts as determined as of the valuation date following termination. | ||

| Participant contributions are invested by the Plan Trustee in accordance with participant elections, in one or more of the investment options the Plan offers in increments of 1%. | ||

| (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).
