MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was $ 1,356,134, a 40.9%
increase over the same period in 1994. The following is a summary of the net
change in several broad categories of income and expense.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1995 1994 $ Change % Change
---- ---- --------- --------
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Net interest income $ 4,362,850 $ 3,815,394 $ 547,456 14.3%
Provision for loan loss 324,298 285,303 38,995 13.7%
Other operating income 1,171,463 760,860 424,285 55.7%
Other operating expense 3,326,630 3,027,549 299,081 9.8%
Net income before tax 1,883,385 1,263,402 620,081 49.0%
</TABLE>
Net interest income continues to reflect positive loan growth and our increased
levels of investment income in a static short-term interest rate scenario.
Interest expense has not increased proportionally with interest income
primarily due to the short duration of the deposits. In late 1994, the Company
began to protect itself from the negative impact of possible rising interest
rates by promoting longer term deposit accounts, and shortening the duration of
investment securities. The provision for loan losses, some 13.7% higher for
the same period of 1994 is considered adequate to allow the allowance for
doubtful accounts to grow to a level sufficient to provide for the loan growth
occurring in 1994-1995.
Other operating income increased dramatically in 1995, primarily as a result
of a one-time recovery on a real estate loss in a prior year. Service charges
on deposit accounts increased $143,000 during the first quarter over 1994 due
to increased volumes. Insurance commission income increased $22,000 over 1994
due to the growth of premiums written.
Other operating expenses increased generally in 1995 as compared to 1994 with
no major factor indicating change. Although expenses have stabilized,
management continues to emphasis the reduction of noninterest expense of the
company.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
FINANCIAL CONDITION
At March 31, 1995, loans, net of unearned discount, were $255,038,339, a 1.5%
increase over December 31, 1994, and a 24.0% increase over March 31, 1994.
Investment securities held to maturity and securities available for sale remain
constant as compared to December 31, 1994, however, decreased approximately
$9,700,000 over the level at March 31, 1994. This decrease and the increase in
deposits funded the loan growth during the period.
The following table shows the changes in earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities for March 31, 1995 and 1994, and for December 31, 1994 (in

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
As discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, as a
result of the stock offering to be completed May 10, 1995, capital adequacy
will be in excess of 8% (leverage ratio), which will place the Company's
capital at or over peer bank levels. The Company, through normal banking
relationship's, has superior relationships with its correspondents and also is
a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas. These relationships provide
funding levels should the need arise.
The Company has complied with all risk-based capital ratios as required by its
various regulators.

TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT
First M & F Corporation's subsidiary, Merchants and Farmers Bank,
Kosciusko, Mississippi, has had, and expects to have in the future, banking
transactions in the ordinary course of its business with directors, officers,
principal shareholders, and their associates. Such transactions are completed
on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral on loans, as those
prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with others, and do not
involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other
unfavorable features. Such loans are extended on a secured basis. The aggregate
amount of loans outstanding to directors, principal officers and their
interests to the bank December 31, 1994, totaled $2,796,159. Other than these
transactions there were no material transactions during 1994 between directors
and officers and the bank or the corporation.
Management at present knows of no other business to be brought before
the meeting. However, if other business is properly brought before the meeting,
it is the intention of the management to vote the accompanying Proxies in
accordance with its judgment.
The accompanying Proxy is solicited by Management.
