                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        March 31, 1997

     The information furnished reflects all normal, recurring adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of
Teche Bancshares, Inc. and its subsidiary for the three (3) months ended
March 31, 1997.  Results for the interim period presented are not necessarily
indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim period or
for the year as a whole.

























                          TECHE BANCSHARES, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997.   

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to insure that adequate funds are available to
satisfy contractual liabilities, fund operations, meet withdrawal
requirements of depositors and provide for customer's credit needs in a
timely manner. Our primary source of liquidity is our core deposits. We
supplement our core deposits with a line of credit with one of our
correspondent banks, public fund time deposits, repurchase agreements with
correspondent banks and a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank. Our
sources of liquidity are adequate to fund the loan demand that we are
experiencing.

The primary source of funding for the parent company is dividends from the
Bank.  During 1996, the holding company paid off all of its long-term debt. 
Management believes the parent's current sources of funds are sufficient to
meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

Capital Resources and Asset Quality

Our consolidated risk based capital to asset ratio was 18.38% and Tier one
capital ratio was 7.44% at March 31, 1997.  The bank only risk based capital
ratio was 18.33% and Tier one capital ratio was 7.41%. Banks are required to
maintain a risk weighted capital to asset ratio of 8% and Tier one capital
ratio of 5%.  Our risk based capital ratio and Tier one capital ratio both
exceed the required amount.

Asset quality continues to be satisfactory due to our emphasis on credit
quality in our loan portfolio.  Management is of the opinion that we have all
of our problem credits identified and that an adequate allowance has been
made for any potential future losses.

We continuously monitor the quality of our loans.  Loans past due 90 days or
greater still accruing at March 31, 1997, were $56,452 a decrease of $5,439
from December 31, 1996. Loans on which the accrual of interest had been
discontinued at March 31, 1997 totalled $267,711 which is up $28,868 as
compared to the amount at December 31, 1996.

Results of Operations

Net Income.     Our net income for the three (3) months ended March 31, 1997
was $80,785 up $19,915 as compared to that of the same period last year. The
increase in income was mostly attributed to an increase in our net interest
income.                                                                     
                              


Revenue. Our net interest income for the three (3) months ended March 31,
1997 is up $33,484 as compared to the same period in 1996.  The increase in
net interest income was the result of increases in interest from loans and
investments.  During the fourth quarter of 1996, we experienced loan growth
that has improved our interest margin.  The increase in investments was due
to the investment of funds from growth in deposits.  We invested our excess
funds from deposits in investments to increase our yields over fed funds.

Provision for Loan Losses. Our bad debt reserve totalled $166,687 at March
31, 1997 which represents 1.26% of our gross loans.  During the first quarter
of 1997, we added $9,999 to our reserve for loan loss account.  Our reserve
for loan loss balance was considered adequate at March 31, 1997.

Other Income. Our other income is up $11,279 when compared to the same period
last year.  The increase was mostly due to the recovery of $5,658 of the loss
from the sale of Louisiana Agricultural Finance Bonds (LAFA).  In 1991, we
sold the LAFA bonds that we owned realizing a loss of approximately $200,000. 
Since that time we have been listed in the class action suit that was filed
against Executive Life, the issuer of the bond.  In a prior year, we
recovered approximately $40,000 of our loss.

Other Expenses. Other expenses are up $16,271 as compared to the same time
last year.  Other expenses increased due to increases in Salaries and
employee benefits and other operating expenses.  Other operating expenses
increased due to general increases in various expenses.  Salaries and
benefits increased as the result of raises that were provided in the fourth
quarter of 1996.
                                                        
Provision for Income Tax. A provision is made for income tax to reflect one
fourth (3/12ths) of the annualized income tax that we anticipate we will
incur. The provision for income tax for the period ended March 31, 1997 was
$37,377 as compared to $28,800 for the same period last year. The increase in
income tax was due to increased income for the current year.
