PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR,
N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within
the prescribed time period.
The Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana (the "Company") Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB for the period ended June 30, 2005, including the financial
statements required to be filed as a part thereof, cannot be filed within the
prescribed time period due to the inability of the Company's independent
registered public accounting firm, LaPorte Sehrt Romig and Hand ("LaPorte"),
to complete its audit and review of the Company's financial statements as a
result of the effects of Hurricane Katrina. The main office of LaPorte,
located in Metairie, Louisiana was severely damaged, which significantly
delayed the completion of the audit. We anticipate the Annual Report on Form
10-KSB will be filed as soon as reasonably practicable.
(Attach extra Sheets if Needed) Persons who are to respond to the collection
of information contained in this form are not
required to respond unless the form displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
