HF Financial Corp. (Nasdaq:HFFC) today announced that its operating subsidiary, Home Federal Bank, had successfully completed its previously announced conversion from a federal savings association to a South Dakota banking corporation. In connection with the conversion by its subsidiary, HF Financial Corp. has also successfully completed its conversion from a savings and loan holding company to a bank holding company.

Previously, Home Federal's primary regulator was the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"). Now, as a South Dakota bank, Home Federal's primary regulator will be the Division of Banking of the South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation. The conversion will not affect customers and clients, and they will continue to receive the same protection on deposits through the FDIC.

"The conversion to a new banking charter supports our consumer and home lending legacy while also accommodating our commercial and agricultural lending focus. It is also expected to result in cost efficiencies," said Stephen Bianchi, President and CEO of Home Federal.
