                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        March 31, 1998

     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, 1998.  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, 1998.   

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 19.11% and Tier one
capital ratio was 7.66% at March 31, 1998.  The bank only risk based capital
ratio was 19.05% and Tier one capital ratio was 7.63%. 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, 1998, were $24,430 a decrease of $17,941
from December 31, 1997. Loans on which the accrual of interest had been
discontinued at March 31, 1998 totalled $24,550 a decrease of $438 as
compared to the amount at December 31, 1997.   

We are actively marketing our other real estate owned.  At March 31, 1998
other real estate totalled $229,721 unchanged from December 31, 1997.       
  

Results of Operations

Net Income.     Our net income for the three (3) months ended March 31, 1998
was $98,999 up $18,214 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,
1998 is up $38,426 as compared to the same period in 1997.  The increase in
net interest income was the result of increases in the volume of loans and
investments.  The increase in investments was due to the investment of funds
from growth in deposits experienced in the first quarter of 1998.  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 $172,628 at March
31, 1998 which represents 1.25% of our gross loans.  During the first quarter
of 1998, we did not add to our reserve for loan loss account.  Our reserve
for loan loss balance was considered adequate at March 31, 1998.

Other Income. Our other income is down $9,507 when compared to the same
period last year.  The decrease was mostly due to a decrease in NSF fee
income.  

Other Expenses. Other expenses are up $3,939 as compared to the same time
last year.  Other expenses increased due to increases in Salaries and
employee benefits.  Salaries and benefits increased as the result of raises
that were provided in the fourth quarter of 1997.
                                                        
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, 1998 was
$44,143 as compared to $37,377 for the same period last year. The increase in
income tax was due to increased income for the current year.
                                                                            
Year 2000 Preparation.  We have inventoried our software, hardware and
environmental systems.  We have identified those products that will need
modification or replacement.  We have committed to updating our Bank
application system and are planning for a November 1998 conversion date.  We
are in the process of signing a contract for a new check sorter that will
replace the obsolete sorter that we now own and expect delivery in early
August 1998.  We anticipate that the cost of these two products will be
depreciated over a five year period and will not be material to the financial
statements or operations of Teche Banchares, Inc.
