Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in 
accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include 
information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial 
position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles. However, all normal, recurring adjustments 
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of 
financial statements, have been included. These interim financial statements 
should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the 
notes thereto for Acadiana Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") previously filed 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company's Annual Report on

from the general public and provides residential real estate loans and other 
loans to the Lafayette, Louisiana area. The Bank's deposits are insured by 
the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") to the maximum extent 
permitted by law. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial

of Dallas ("FHLB"). The Company is subject to examination and comprehensive

(3)  Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection with the conversion from mutual to stock form, the Company 
established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") for the benefit of 
employees of the Company and the Bank. The ESOP purchased 218,500 shares, or 
8% of the total stock sold in the subscription offering, for $2,622,000, 
financed by a loan from the Company. The Company will account for its ESOP 
in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6, "Employer's Accounting for 
Employee Stock Ownership Plans".

The ESOP was effective upon completion of the conversion. Full-time employees 
of the Company and The Bank who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours 
of service during a 12-month period and who have attained age 21 are eligible 
to participate in the ESOP. The Company will make scheduled discretionary 
cash contributions to the ESOP sufficient to amortize the principal and 
interest on the loan, which matures in 2006.

Shares purchased by the ESOP with the proceeds of the loan are held in a 
suspense account and released on a pro rata basis as debt service payments 
are made. Shares released are reallocated among participants on the basis of 
compensation. Participants

                                       8


<PAGE>


vest in their right to receive their account balances within the ESOP at the 
rate of 20% per year starting after one year of service.

Under SOP 93-6, unearned ESOP shares are not considered outstanding and are 
shown as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Dividends on unallocated ESOP 
shares are considered to be compensation expense. The Company recognizes 
compensation cost equal to the fair value of the ESOP shares during the 
periods in which they become committed to be released. To the extent fair 
value of the Company's ESOP shares differ from the cost of such shares, this 
differential is charged to equity. The Company receives a tax deduction equal 
to the cost of the shares released. The loan receivable from the ESOP to the 
Company is not shown as an asset and the debt of the ESOP is not shown as a 
Company liability.

Compensation cost for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $92,000 based 
on the release of 5,473 shares. At March 31, 1997, there were 10,946 allocated 
shares, 5,473 shares had been committed to be released, and 202,081 shares 
were held in suspense by the ESOP. The fair value of the unearned ESOP shares 
at March 31, 1997, using the quoted market closing price per share, was 
approximately $3,467,000.

(4)  Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share was based on 2,467,139 weighted average shares outstanding 
during the three month period ended March 31, 1997. The weighted average was 
calculated by excluding the ESOP shares unearned at the beginning of the 
period and excluding the ESOP shares released, which was pro-rated by days, 
from the shares outstanding at beginning of period. Earnings per share for 
periods preceding the three months ended March 31, 1996 are not applicable, 
as the Bank's conversion from mutual-to-stock form and reorganization into a 
holding company format was not completed until July 16, 1996.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 
No. 128, "Earnings per Share," ("SFAS 128") which is required to be adopted 
on December 31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to change 
the method currently used for calculating primary earnings per share, the 
dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The Company does not 
believe that the effect of SFAS 128 on the calculation of fully diluted 
earnings per share for this quarter would be material.

(5)  Stock Conversion

On July 16, 1996, (1) LBA Savings Bank converted from a state chartered 
mutual savings bank to a state chartered stock savings bank, and (2) Acadiana 
Bancshares Corporation acquired all of the common stock of the Bank. The 
Company has 20,000,000 shares of .01 par value common stock authorized and 
2,731,250 shares issued and outstanding. The public offering resulted in

and Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The remaining proceeds were 
retained by the Company.

(6)  Recognition and Retention Plan and Trust and Stock Option Plan

On January 21, 1997, the stockholders of the Company approved the Recognition 
and Retention Plan. The plan enables the Company to provide officers, key 
employees and directors with a proprietary interest in the Company as an 
incentive to contribute to its success. Pursuant to this plan, the Company 
acquired 109,250 shares, or 4% of its outstanding common stock in open market 
transactions. These shares are accounted for as unearned deferred compensation 
and shares granted will be amortized as compensation expense over the vesting 
period based on the value at the date of the grant, which was $15.50 per 
share. On January 22, 1997, the Board of Directors granted 73,202 shares of 
restricted stock with a vesting period of 5 years. Compensation costs for the 
three months ended March 31, 1997 was $57,000. At March 31, 1997 no such 
shares were vested.

On January 21, 1997, the stockholders of the Company approved the adoption of 
the Stock Option Plan. The Stock Option plan authorizes grants totaling 
273,125 shares, or 10 percent of the total number of common shares sold in 
the Company's initial public offering of its common stock upon the 
mutual-to-stock conversion of the Bank. The option exercise price cannot be 
less than the fair value of the underlying stock as of the date of the option 
grant and the maximum term cannot exceed ten years. On January 22, 1997, the 
Board of Directors granted a total of 211,701 options to directors and 
officers at an exercise price of $15.50 per share. The Plan is designed to 
retain qualified directors and officers for the Company.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations.

General

     On July 16, 1996, Acadiana Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") issued 
2,731,250 shares of common stock during the conversion (the "Conversion") of 
LBA Savings Bank (the "Bank") from mutual to stock form and reorganization 
into a holding company format. Net proceeds of $29.2 million were credited to 
stockholders' equity. The Company's ESOP, effective upon completion of the 
conversion, purchased 218,500 shares for $2.6 million, financed by a loan 
from the Company. The total cash received from the Conversion, net of $6.4 
million withdrawn from deposit accounts for purchase of the stock, was $22.8 
million. The additional cash was invested in an investment securities 
interest-bearing deposits. The effect of the Conversion on the Company's 
Statement of Financial condition was that investment securities and 
interest-bearing deposits increased as a proportion of total assets.  The 
resulting effect on the Company's Statement of Operations was an increase in 
levels of interest income with no related offsetting change in interest expense.

Changes in Financial Condition

     At March 31, 1997, the consolidated assets of the Company totaled $261.7 
million, a decrease of $2.7 million or 1.0% from December 31, 1996. The 
primary reasons for the decrease were the utilization of cash to fund net 
deposit outflows of $1.8 million, and to purchase 109,250 shares of the 
Company's common stock for approximately $1.8 million to fund the new 
Recognition and Retention Plan (the "RRP") which was approved by the 
stockholders on January 21, 1997.

     Loans receivable, net, increased by $3.0 million, or 1.7%, to $185.8 
million at March 31, 1997, compared to $182.7 million at December 31, 1996. 
The increase was primarily the result of a $2.0 million, or 1.2%, net 
increase in total mortgage loans, and a $935,000, or 12.7%, net increase in 
total commercial business loans. Total consumer loans experienced a net 
decrease of $233,000, or 1.4%, which included a net decrease in indirect 
dealer loans of $700,000, or 9.4%.

     Interest bearing deposits at other institutions decreased $8.3 million, 
or 44.6%, to $10.3 million at March 31, 1997, compared to $18.6 million at 
December 31, 1996.

     The Company owned $274,000 of investment securities held for trading, as 
of March 31, 1997. Investment securities available for sale increased $3.8 
million, or 18.6%, to $24.4 million at March 31, 1997, compared to $20.5 
million at December 31, 1996. The primary reason for such increase was the 
purchases of $5.0 million of investment securities, which was partially 
offset by $1.0 million of redemption of investment securities and a decline in 
unrealized gains on the investment securities available for sale portfolio of 
$99,000.

     Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity decreased $70,000, or .5%, 
to $13.0 million at March 31, 1997 compared to $13.1 million at December 31, 
1996. Such decrease was primarily the result of principal repayments. The 
mortgage-backed securities available for sale portfolio decreased $1.1 
million, or 4.9%, to $20.5 million at March 31, 1997 as compared to $21.6 
million at December 31, 1996. The decrease reflects normal principal 
repayments and a $329,000 decline in market values of the securities.

     Deposits decreased $1.8 million, or 1.0%, to $191.6 million at March 31, 
1997 compared to $193.5 million at December 31, 1996. This decrease was due 
primarily to deposit outflows.  

     Advances from the FHLB of Dallas remained at $22.3 million at March 31, 
1997 as compared to December 31, 1996.  The Company's current FHLB advances 
mature in the year ending December 31, 1998. The Company has the ability to 
borrow up to approximately $125.4 million from the FHLB of Dallas, which 
together with the current advances, would be secured by mortgage loans under 
an existing blanket collateral agreement, and by Federal Home Loan Bank Stock.

     Total stockholders' equity decreased $1.5 million, or 3.1%, to $45.6 
million at March 31, 1997, compared to $47.1 million at December 31, 1996. 
The decrease was primarily attributable to the purchase of common stock 
shares for the RRP for approximately $1.8 million, a $339,000 decrease in net 
unrealized gains (losses) of securities available for sale, and $226,000 in 
dividends declared on common stock, all of which was partially offset by 
$771,000 of net income.

     The Company's non-performing assets amounted to .31% of total assets at 
March 31, 1997 compared to .36% at December 31, 1996. In addition, the ratio 
of the Bank's allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans and troubled 
debt restructurings was 208.64% at March 31, 1997 compared to 183.96% at 
December 31, 1996.

Results of Operations

     The Company reported a net income of $771,000 for the three months ended 
March 31, 1997, compared to a net income of $283,000 for the three months 
ended March 31, 1996. The $448,000, or 172.4%, increase is due primarily to 
increase in net interest income of $700,000, together with an increase in 
non-interest income of $7,000 and a decrease in non-interest expenses of 
$49,000, all of which was partially offset by a corresponding increase in 
income taxes of $268,000. The primary reason for the increase in net interest 
income relates to the Company's deployment of $29.2 million net proceeds from 
the issuance of common stock.

     Average Balances, Net Interest Income, and Yields Earned and Rates Paid. 
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information 
regarding (i) the dollar amount of interest income of the Bank from 
interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) the total 
dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the 
resultant rate; (iii) net interest income; (iv) interest rate spread; and (v) 
net interest margin. Non-accrual loans have been included in the appropriate 
average balance loan category, but interest on non-accrual loans has been 
included for purposes of determining interest income only to the extent that 
cash payments are actually received.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased $700,000, or 42.2%, in the three months ended 
March 31, 1997, to $2.4 million, compared to $1.7 million in the three months 
ended March 31, 1996. The increase was due to a $643,000, or 14.9%, increase 
in interest income together with a decrease in interest expense of a $57,000, 
or 2.1%. The increase in interest income was the result of a $36.8, or 16.8%, 
increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets which was 
partially offset by an 13 basis point (100 basis point being equal to 1%) 
decrease in the yield thereon. The decrease in interest expense was the 
result of a 28 basis point decrease in yield on average interest-bearing 
liabilities, which was partially offset by a $6.7 million, or 3.3%, increase 
in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's 
interest rate spread (the difference between the weighted average yield on 
interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing 
liabilities) and net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of 
average interest-earning assets) amounted to 2.78% and 3.69%, respectively, 
during the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to 2.63% and 3.03%, 
respectively, for the comparable period in 1996.

Interest Income

     The Company's total interest income was $5.0 million for the three 
months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $4.3 million for the three months 
ended March 31, 1996. The reasons for the $643,000, or 14.9%, increase in 
interest income were a 409,000, or 12.2%, increase in interest income from 
loans, a $290,000, or 299.0%, increase in interest income from investment 
securities, and a $29,000 or 16.8%, increase in interest income from 
interest-bearing deposits, all of which was partially offset by an $82,000, 
or 11.8%, decrease in interest income from mortgage-backed securities. The 
increase in interest income from loans was the result of a $23.3 million 
increase in the average balance of loans, which was partially offset by a 17 
basis point decrease in the yield thereon. The increase in interest income 
from investment securities was the result of a $15.9 million increase in the 
average balance of investments and a 57 basis point increase in the yield 
thereon. The increase in interest income from other earning assets, 
substantially all of which are interest-bearing deposits at the FHLB, was the 
result of a $2.4 million increase in the average balance of other earning 
assets which was partially offset by a 1 basis point decrease in the yield 
thereon. The decrease in interest income on mortgage-backed securities was 
the result of a decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities 
of $4.9 million which was partially offset by an increase of 5 basis points 
in the yield thereon.

Interest Expense

     The Company's total interest expense was $2.6 million during the three 
months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $2.7 million for the three months 
ended March 31, 1996. The $57,000, or 2.1%, decrease in interest expense was 
comprised of a decrease of $352,000 of interest expense on deposits, which 
was substantially offset by an increase of


                                      14


<PAGE>


$295,000 of interest expense on advances from the FHLB. The decrease in 
interest expense on deposits was the result of a decrease of $15.3 million, 
or 7.5%, in average balances in interest bearing deposits together with a 
decrease of 33 basis points in the cost thereon. The increase in interest 
expense on advances from the FHLB was the result of an increase in average 
balances on advances from the FHLB of $22.0 million.

Provision For Loan Losses

     The provision for loan losses was $45,000 in the three months ended 
March 31, 1997 as compared to $45,000 for the same period in 1996.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income increased $7,000, or 2.8%, in the three months ended 
March 31, 1997 to $261,000, compared to $254,000 for the three months ended 
March 31, 1996. Such increase was due primarily to a $1,000, or 6.3%, 
increase in servicing fees on loans sold, a $44,000, or 32.8%, increase on 
deposit fees and service charges which relates primarily to an increase in 
per item charges, and an increase of $8,000 in the gains from sales of 
investment securities produced from investments held for trading, all of 
which were partially offset by a decrease of $10,000, or 21.3%, in loan fees 
and service charges, an $11,000, or 110.0%, decrease in gains from the sale 
of loans, and a $25,000, or 53.2% decrease in other income. The decrease in 
gains from the sale of loans reflects the Company's decision to hold certain 
newly originated fixed rate loans for its portfolio resulting in a decline in 
the volume of sales of loans. The decrease in loan fees and service charges 
reflects a volume related decrease in late charges on delinquent loans.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense decreased $49,000, or 3.4%, in the three months 
ended March 31, 1997 to $1.4 million, compared to $1.5 million in the three 
months ended March 31, 1996. Such decrease was due primarily to an $86,000, 
or 73.5%, decrease in federal deposit insurance premiums, primarily due to 
lower rates, a $72,000, decrease in net costs of real estate owned, 
reflecting the Company's decrease in repossessed assets, a $51,000, or 70.8%, 
decrease in consulting expenses, and a $44,000, or 11.4%, decrease in other 
expenses, all of which were partially offset by a $99,000, or 15.0%, increase 
in salaries and employee benefits, reflecting the costs of the ESOP and the 
RRP Plans, which did not exist in 1996, a $19,000, or 32.2%, increase in 
occupancy expenses relating to repairs and maintenance at the main office and 
branch facilities, and a new state shares tax expense of $76,000, which is 
based on the equity of the Bank, and was not applicable to the Company in 
1996. The increase of $99,000, or 15.0%, in salaries and employee benefits 
for the three months ended March 31, 1997, as compared to the three months 
ended March 31, 1996, included the costs relating to the ESOP and the RRP, 
together totaling $149,000, which costs were not applicable to the prior year 
three month period because these plans were not in effect during that prior 
period.

Income Tax Expense

     Income tax expense increased by $268,000, or 203.0%, in the three months 
ended March 31, 1997 to $400,000, as compared to an income tax expense of 
$132,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The increase in income 
tax expense reflects an increase in income before income taxes.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's primary liquidity, represented by cash and cash 
equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing 
activities. Excess liquidity includes the Company's portfolios of investment 
securities held for sale and mortgage-backed securities held for sale. The 
Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, and 
amortization, prepayments and maturities from its loan portfolio and its held 
to maturity investment securities and mortgage-backed securities portfolios, 
and other funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the 
amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment 
securities are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, loan 
prepayments, and mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly 
influence by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. 
The Company has the ability to borrow up to approximately $125.4 million from 
the FHLB through its subsidiary Bank. At March 31, 1997, the Bank had 
$22,250,000 of outstanding advances from the FHLB of Dallas, and no other 
borrowings.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business 
management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments 
such as overnight deposits. On a longer-term basis, the Bank maintains a 
strategy of investing in various lending products. The Bank uses its sources 
of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments and maintain a portfolio 
of mortgage-backed and investment securities. At March 31, 1997, the total 
approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $11.8 million and the 
undisbursed loans in process totaled $6.3 million. At the same date, 
commitments under unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit 
amounted to $637,000 and $400,000 respectively. Certificates of deposit 
scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 1997 totaled $80.2 
million. Management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits 
will remain with the Bank. The Bank anticipates that even with interest rates 
at lower levels than have been experienced in recent years, which as caused a 
disintermediation of funds, it will continue to have sufficient funds to meet 
its current commitments.

Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintain minimum 
levels of regulatory capital. Under current FDIC regulations, insured 
state-chartered banks generally must maintain (i) a ratio of Tier 1 leverage 
capital to total assets of a least 3.0% (4.0% to 5.0% for all but the most 
highly rated banks) and (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital risk weighted assets 
of at least 4.0% and a ratio of total capital risk weighted assets of at least


                                      16

8.0%. At March 31, 1997 the Bank was in compliance with all applicable 
regulatory capital requirements.

     The following reflects the Bank's actual levels of regulatory capital 
and applicable regulatory capital requirements at March 31, 1997.

     The Company, as a separately incorporated holding company, has no 
significant operations other than serving as sole stockholder of the Bank. On 
an unconsolidated basis, the Company has no paid employees. The Company's 
assets consist of its investment in the Bank, the Company's loan to the 
Bank's ESOP and 50% of the net proceeds retained from the Conversion, and its 
sources of income consists primarily of earnings from the investment of such 
funds as well as any dividends from the Bank. The expenses expected to be 
incurred by the Company will relate to its reporting obligations under the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), and related 
expenses as a publicly traded company. The Company will be directly 
reimbursed by the Bank for all such expenses. Management believes that the 
Company has adequate liquidity available to respond to liquidity demands.
