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

This discussion is intended to supplement the consolidated financial statements,
expand on material changes in financial  condition since year end and to compare
the operating  results for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, to the same
period in 1999.
                 DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

             This  Report  includes  "forward-looking   statements"  within  the
  meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  and Section
  21E of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Although the Company
  believes that the expectations  reflected in such  forward-looking  statements
  are based on numerous  assumptions  (some of which may prove to be  incorrect)
  and are  subject  to risks and  uncertainties  which  could  cause the  actual
  results to differ materially from the Company's expectations.  Forward-looking
  statements  have  been  and  will  be  made  in  written  documents  and  oral
  presentations  of the  Company.  Such  statements  are  based on  management's
  beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information  currently available to
  management.  When used in the Company's documents or oral  presentations,  the
  words   "anticipate",   "estimate",   "expect",   "objective",   "projection",

             Financial Condition

             Earning Assets. Earning assets averaged $223.9 million in the third
  quarter of 2000, a $44.3  million  (25%)  increase from the third quarter 1999
  average of $179.7  million.  The increase was due to growth in the  investment
  portfolio  (45%) and strong loan growth  (18%) in existing  markets as well as
  the bank's  expanding  presence to  Vicksburg,  Mississippi  and Baton  Rouge,
  Louisiana.  Investment  and loan  growth  has been  funded by an  increase  in
  deposits  and  borrowed  funds along with the  reinvestment  of proceeds  from
  securities paydowns.

             Asset  Quality.  Several  key  measures  are used to  evaluate  and
  monitor  the  Company's   asset   quality.   These   measures   include  total
  delinquencies,  nonaccrual  loans and  other  real  estate  owned by the bank.
  Nonperforming  loans at September 30, 2000 increased  $419 thousand  primarily
  due to increases in nonaccrual  loans and slight increases in loans 90 days or
  more delinquent.  The breakdown of nonperforming  loans at September 30, 2000,
  and December 31, 1999,  respectively,  were nonaccrual  loans of $778 thousand
  and $411  thousand and loans past due ninety days or more of $358 thousand and
  $306 thousand.  The increase in nonaccrual loans was due to foreclosure of one
  local real estate  loan.  An appraisal  made in 1999  indicates no loss to the
  bank. This foreclosure increased nonperforming loans as a percentage of loans,
  net of unearned  income to .70% at  September  30,  2000,  compared to .51% at
  December 31, 1999.

             Allowance for Possible Loan Losses. The allowance for possible loan
  losses was increased to $1.026 million at September 30, 2000, compared to $866
  thousand at September  30, 1999.  The ratio of the allowance for possible loan
  losses to loans,  net of  unearned  income and loans  held for sale,  remained
  stable at .63% at  September  30,  2000.  The  Company  regularly  reviews the
  reserve for possible loan losses to maintain an adequate  level to absorb loan
  losses  that  may  be  inherent  in  the  portfolio.  The  bank's  1-4  family
  residential  first mortgage  loans  represent  approximately  50% of the total
  portfolio  with very little history of loss.  Therefore,  management is of the
  opinion  that the  provision  is  adequate at  September  30,  2000.  The bank
  reported  net  chargeoffs  for the first nine  months of 2000 of $60  thousand
  compared to $66 thousand for the same period in 1999.

             Other Real Estate.  Other real estate  decreased to $59 thousand at
  September 30, 2000,  from $103 thousand at December 31, 1999,  due to the sale
  of one piece of property.

             Securities.  Securities primarily consist of mortgage-backed,  U.S.
  government  agencies  and  municipal  securities.  Management  determines  the
  classification of its securities at acquisition. Securities that are deemed to
  be held to maturity are  accounted  for by the  amortized  cost method.  These
  securities  increased  $8.2 million to $54.8 million at September 30, 2000, as
  compared to $46.6 million at December 31, 1999.  The Company from time to time
  will  purchase   securities  and  hold  them  as  available  for  sale.  These
  securities,  which are marked to market, amounted to $4.1 million at September
  30, 2000. Equity  securities at September 30, 2000,  consists of the Company's
  investment in Sumx Inc. which  increased $104 thousand  during the nine months
  ended  September 30, 2000.  This increase in made up of equity losses recorded
  by the  Company  during  this  period  of  $146  thousand  and  an  additional
  investment of $250  thousand.  Other equity  securities,  comprised of Federal
  Reserve  Bank  stock of $239  thousand,  Federal  Home Loan Bank stock of $1.3
  million,  increased  $391 thousand due primarily to the purchase of additional
  stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank.

             Liquidity. Principal sources of liquidity for the Company are asset
  cash flows,  customer  deposits and the ability to borrow  against  investment
  securities and loans.  The Company's cash and cash  equivalents  decreased $25
  thousand to $5.6 million at September 30, 2000. Cash provided by operating and
  financing   activities   increased   by  $2.6   million  and  $28.2   million,
  respectively, while investing activities used $30.7 million.

             Deposits.  Deposits  increased to $181.5  million at September  30,
  2000 compared to $166.3  million at December 31, 1999, due to $10.0 million in
  Brokered  CD's and $5.2  million  from  national  markets  and local  customer
  deposits.

             Capital.  Shareholders'  equity  totaled $21.2 million at September
  30, 2000, compared to $20.2 million a year earlier.  The increase is primarily
  the result of net income  over the most recent  twelve  months  totaling  $2.3
  million  offset by $1.4 million in dividends  declared on common stock and the
  repurchase  of 14,500 shares of common stock at an average price of $17.75 per
  share.  The ratio of  Shareholders'  equity to  assets  decreased  to 8.87% at
  September 30, 2000 compared to 10.31% at September 30, 1999,  due to growth in
  total assets.  The Company  maintained a total capital to risk weighted assets
  ratio of 14.10%,  a Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 13.41% and
  a leverage  ratio of 8.40%.  These  levels  substantially  exceed the  minimum
  requirements of the regulatory agencies for  well-capitalized  institutions of
  10.00%, 6.00% and 5.00% respectively.

             Results of Operations

             First nine months of 2000 compared to the first nine months of 1999

             Analysis of Net Income.  Net income  increased to $1.812 million or
  $1.03 per share from  $1.742  million or $.99 per share.  This  increase  came
  about even though the Company  expensed $40 thousand  during the third quarter
  associated  with the proposed  acquisition  of Louisiana Bank and Trust, a $42
  million bank in Baton Rouge,  La. The Company's  previous efforts to modernize
  facilities and update  computer  operations are being reflected in higher than
  normal  equipment  and  occupancy  expenses.  During this period of  increased
  expenses,  the bank's  core  income  comprised  of service  charges on deposit
  accounts,  internet fees and other retail service fees,  remains high. Returns
  on average  assets and  average  equity for the first nine months of 2000 were
  1.06% and 11.63%, respectively.

             Analysis of Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $770
  thousand or 12.5% to $6.9 million for the period ended September 30, 2000, due
  to a 22% growth in average  earning assets offset by a 27% increase in average
  costing liabilities.  $759 thousand of the increase in net interest income was
  the result of volume increases with the remainder coming from slight increases
  in rates.  Interest  income  increased  $2.9  million or 27%  primarily on the
  strength of a 19% increase in average  loan volumes  along with a 38% increase
  in the banks investment portfolio from leverage strategies.

             Provision for Loan Losses.  The Company increased the provision for
  loan loss expense to $250  thousand  during the current year  compared to $185
  thousand in 1999, in an effort to keep pace with the growing loan portfolio.

             Non-Interest  Income.  Non-interest  income  increased  4% to  $1.4
  million due to growth in service  charges on deposit  accounts,  Internet fees
  and gains from sales of mortgage loans. The bank also sold property previously
  held in other real estate for a gain of $42 thousand.

             Non-Interest  Expense.  Non-interest  expense increased 15% or $704
  thousand to $5.4 million for the nine-month  period ended  September 30, 2000.
  Salaries  and  employee  benefits  accounted  for more than  one-third  of the
  increase.  Equipment and occupancy expense  increased $190 thousand  primarily
  due to the addition of two new branches.

             Pretax Income.  The combination of all the above factors produced a
  2% increase in pretax  income to $2.72  million  compared to $2.67 million for
  the same period in the previous year.

             Income Taxes.  Income taxes decreased to $908 thousand for the nine
  months ended September 30, 2000, from $927 thousand for same period last year.
