          1994 financial statements, the notes thereto and the related
          Management's Discussion and Analysis.

          MidSouth ended the third quarter of 1995 with total assets of
          $145,780,656, an increase of 43% over the $102,251,594 reported
          in total assets for the third quarter of 1994.  Completion of the
          acquisition of Sugarland State Bank of Jeanerette, Louisiana
          ("Sugarland") on July 31, 1995 contributed $17,169,959 or 39% of
          the increase in total assets.  The transaction resulted in each
          share of common stock of Sugarland being converted into one share
          of MidSouth Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock with
          a stated value of $14.25 per share.  A total of 187,286 shares of
          Convertible Preferred Stock were issued.  In addition, MidSouth
          experienced internal growth through two public funds contracts
          and deposits generated from the Opelousas branch.  As of
          September 30, 1995, the two public funds held $12.8 million in
          deposits and the Opelousas branch held $2.4 million in deposits.

          Annualized return on average equity was 14.64% and annualized
          return on average assets was .98% for the three months ending
          September 30, 1995.  Earnings for the first nine months of 1995 
          were $923,364 up 10% over the $835,801 recorded for the same 
          period of 1994.  
          
          MidSouth recorded third quarter 1995 and 1994 primary earnings 
          per share of $.34 per common share.  Fully diluted earnings per 
          common share were $.27 for the same periods.  The Sugarland 
          acquisition contributed $83,169 to a quarterly increase of $356,371 
          in net interest income.  The majority of the increase in net 
          interest income resulted primarily from growth in MidSouth's loan 
          portfolio.  An increase in expenses associated with MidSouth's 
          four new branch locations in St. Landry and Iberia parishes, which 
          includes two former Sugarland banking offices, offset the 
          improvement in earnings for the third quarter of 1995.

          Consistent loan growth over the past twelve months has increased
          MidSouth's loans, net of reserves, by $17,203,721 to $76,762,062,
          up 29% compared to $59,558,341 at December 31, 1994.  Third
          quarter 1995 total loans represents a 36% increase over the
          $56,436,253 in loans at September 30, 1994.  Loans acquired from
          Sugarland amounted to $8,601,476.  Deposits totaled $134,312,625
          at the end of the current quarter compared to $96,490,355 at
          year-end 1994 and $94,981,509 at the end of the third quarter of
          1994.  Deposits of $13,798,441 were attributed to the Sugarland
          acquisition.

          On October 18, 1995, MidSouth opened its first SuperOne Foods
          supermarket location in New Iberia.  Future plans include a
          branch in a SuperOne Foods supermarket in Lafayette by mid-1996
          and a loan production office scheduled to be opened shortly in
          Morgan City.


          Earnings Analysis

          Net Interest Income

          Average earning assets increased $11.6 million from $93.0 million
          for the nine months ending September 30, 1994 to $104.6 million
          for the nine months ending September 30, 1995.  The $11.6 million
          increase is the net result of a $11.9 million increase in the
          loan portfolio, which includes an average year-to-date impact of
          $2 million in Sugarland loans, and a $.3 million decrease in the
          volume of securities and federal funds sold.  In addition, a
          $11.5 million increase in the average volume of deposits provided
          additional funding for securities purchases and loan growth.   Of
          the $11.5 million increase in the average volume of deposits,
          $3.27 million represents the average year -to-date impact of
          deposits acquired from Sugarland.

          Increases in the average loan volume and the average yield on
          loans more than offset increases in the average volume of
          interest-bearing liabilities and the average rate paid on
          interest-bearing liabilities to result in increased net interest
          income of $706,854 in year-to-date comparison.  Average loan
          volume increased from $54.3 million at September 30, 1994 to
          $66.3 million at September 30, 1995.  This volume increase,
          combined with a 71 basis point increase in the average yield on
          loans (from 9.75% to 10.46%) for the same period, contributed
          $1,220,201 to the increase in interest income from earning
          assets.  A volume decrease in the securities portfolio was
          partially offset by increases in the average volume of federal
          funds sold and average yields on these investments to net a
          contribution to the increase in income from these earning assets
          of $245,110.

          With the rise in interest rates and a subsequent increase in the
          volume of interest-bearing deposits,  interest expense increased
          $711,185 for the first nine months of 1995 as compared to the
          first nine months of 1994.   The average rate paid on all
          interest-bearing liabilities increased 93 basis points (from
          2.80% to 3.73%).  The average volume of  interest-bearing
          deposits increased $9.4 million,  from $66.3 million to $75.8
          million.  Of the $9.4 million increase, $2.3 million represents
          average interest-bearing deposits of Sugarland.

          As a result of these changes in average volumes and average
          yields on earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the
          net yield on average earning assets increased 27 basis points,
          from 5.69% as of September 30, 1994 to 5.96% as of September 30,
          1995.

          Non-interest Income

          MidSouth's primary source of non-interest income, service charges
          and insufficient funds fees on deposit accounts, increased
          $34,926 and $47,246 for the three and nine months ended September
          30, 1995 as compared to the same period of 1994, respectively.
          Sugarland service charges and fees on deposit accounts
          contributed $25,087 to the quarterly and annual increases.
          Additional increases were noted in service charges and
          insufficient funds fees due to an increase in the volume of
          MidSouth's transaction accounts.

          Other non-interest income increased $20,005 and $28,206 in
          quarterly and year-to-date comparisons, respectively, primarily
          due to increases  in fees earned through credit life insurance,
          check order income, ATM fees and early withdrawal penalties on
          certificates of deposit.  Fees from early withdrawals of
          certificates of deposits increased during the first half of 1995
          as customers took advantage of rising short term rates.

          Non-interest Expense

          Non-interest expense increased 31.87% and 19.07% for the three
          and nine months ended September 30, 1995, respectively, as
          compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 1994.
          The increases result primarily from increases in salaries and
          employee benefits, occupancy, marketing, printing and supplies,
          telephone and general insurance expenses.  Additionally,
          quarterly and year-to-date increases were recorded in the "Other"
          expenses category, but no significant change was reported for any
          individual component of that category.

          Salaries and employee benefits increased $186,182 in quarterly
          comparisons and $316,734 in year-to-date comparisons due
          primarily to the addition of 26 employees through the acquisition
          of Sugarland and the opening of the Opelousas branch and SuperOne
          Foods branch in New Iberia.  The number of full time equivalent
          employees increased to 106.5 as of September 30, 1995 as compared
          to78 as of September 30, 1994.

          Occupancy expense increased in the three and nine month period
          ending September 30, 1995 as compared to the same period of 1994
          due primarily to increases in building lease expense and
          depreciation and maintenance expenses associated with furniture
          and equipment and bank automobiles.  Building lease expense
          increased primarily due to the lease expense on the Opelousas
          branch, an increase provided for in the lease agreement on the
          corporate office location, and the leasing of additional space at
          the corporate office in November 1994.  Depreciation and
          maintenance expenses, in addition to telephone and general
          insurance expenses, increased with the four new branch locations,
          two of which were former Sugarland locations.  Automobile
          depreciation and maintenance expenses increased due to the
          addition of three new vehicles and three vehicles acquired from
          Sugarland.

                                                 10

          Marketing and promotional expenses increased due to expenses
          related to quality service programs, public relations programs
          and dues to civic organizations.  Printing and office supplies
          expenses increased due to costs associated with the addition of
          the four branch locations, two of which were former Sugarland
          banking offices.

          A decrease in MidSouth's F.D.I.C. assessment rate, retroactive to
          June 1, 1995,  resulted in a refund of $68,703 for the third
          quarter of 1995 and significantly decreased assessment fees in
          quarterly and year-to-date comparisons.


          Balance Sheet Analysis

          MidSouth ended the third quarter of 1995 with consolidated assets
          of $145,780,656, an increase of $41.8 million from December 31,
          1994 consolidated assets of $103,965,960.  The increase in
          consolidated assets results primarily from the addition of
          approximately $17.1 million in assets from the acquisition of
          Sugarland State Bank.  Additionally, two public funds contracts
          were obtained during the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
          Deposits held under the two contracts totaled $12.8 million at
          the current quarter-end.

          As of September 30, 1995, total deposits increased $37.8 million
          to $134,312,625 as compared to $96,490,355 at December 31, 1994,
          primarily due to $13.8 million growth in deposits from Sugarland,
          $12.8 million in public funds, and $2.4 million in Opelousas
          branch deposits.  With the $37.8 million deposit growth from
          year-end 1994, MidSouth has experienced a change in the deposit
          mix.   As of December 31, 1994, approximately 31% of total
          deposits reflected non-interest bearing demand accounts.
          Interest-bearing NOW, money market and savings accounts
          represented 33% and certificates of deposit 36% of total
          deposits.  At the current quarter-end, non-interest bearing
          deposits were 24% of total deposits, while the volume of
          interest-bearing NOW, money market and savings deposits increased
          to 40% of total deposits.  The volume of certificates of deposit
          ("CD's") to total deposits remained the same at 36% of total
          deposits, with CD's of $100,000 or more representing 29% of total
          CD's.

          Total loans increased $17.4 million to $77.8 million as of the
          nine months ending September 30, 1995 as compared to $60.4
          million reported at December 31, 1994.  Of the $17.4 million
          growth in loans, $8.7 million represents Sugarland loans.
          Approximately two-thirds of Sugarland's loans are commercial and
          agricultural.  The remaining $8.7 million growth in MidSouth's
          loans has been primarily in the consumer loan portfolio which has
          grown by $8.5 million since year-end.  The commercial loan
          portfolio has remained constant as growth in commercial loans
          secured by real estate has been offset by unexpected payouts of a
          few larger commercial credits.   Competition for quality
          commercial loans has intensified in the Lafayette area in the
          past several months, and as a result the magnitude of loan growth
          in future periods could slow.  Activity has increased, however,
          in other commercial credit programs, including MidSouth's
          Business Manager  accounts receivable program and commercial
          lease financing.

          Securities available-for-sale increased $3.2 million, from $31.3
          million at December 31, 1994 to $34.5 million at September 30,
          1995.  The increase represents the combined result of third
          quarter purchases of securities available-for-sale and an
          improvement of $1,319,190 in the market value of the securities
          available-for-sale.  Unrealized losses in the securities
          available-for-sale portfolio, net of unrealized gains and tax
          effect, were $153,755 at September 30, 1995, compared to
          $1,062,800 at December 31, 1994 .  These amounts result from
          interest rate fluctuations and do not represent permanent
          impairment of value.  Moreover, classification of securities as
          available-for-sale does not necessarily indicate that the
          securities will be sold prior to maturity.  The Financial
          Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has announced that banks will
          have an opportunity to reclassify securities for 1995 year-end
          financial statements.  This opportunity allows banks to move
          individual securities out of a particular category, as defined by
          SFAS 115, without having to evaluate all securities in that
          category.

          Approximately $5.9 million in cash flows resulted from maturities
          of securities available-for-sale and payments received on
          mortgage-backed securities during the first nine months of 1995.
          Of the $5.9 million, $4.0 was used to purchase tax-exempt
          municipal securities designated as held-to-maturity.  The
          remaining cash flows combined with new deposits funded purchases
          of  approximately $6.0 million in securities designated as
          available for sale.  Management anticipates additional securities
          purchases throughout the fourth quarter 1995 as quality offerings
          become available.

          Capital Ratios

          As of September 30, 1995, MidSouth's leverage ratio was 7.49% as
          compared to 6.45% at December 31, 1994.  Tier 1 capital to risk-
          weighted assets was 12.03% and total capital to risk-weighted
          assets was 13.28% at the end of the third quarter of 1995.  At
          year-end 1994, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets was 10.95%
          and total capital to risk-weighted assets was 12.20%.  Capital
          ratios have increased due primarily to the additional capital
          received from the Sugarland acquisition.  Effective December 31,
          1994, regulatory agencies announced that the net unrealized gains
          or losses on securities available-for-sale would not be included
          in calculations of regulatory capital ratios.  Therefore, the
          value of available-for-sale securities is based on historical
          cost rather than on market value for purposes of calculating
          risk-based and leverage capital ratios.

          The common stock closed at a price of $15.625 on November 9, 1995.

          Preferred Stock Information

          On July 31, 1995, 187,286 shares of MidSouth Series A Cumulative
          Convertible Preferred Stock, with a stated value of $14.25 per
          share, was issued in exchange for the common stock held by
          shareholders of Sugarland Bancshares, Inc.  Effective August 1,
          1995, MidSouth's preferred stock is listed on the American Stock
          Exchange under the symbol MSL.Pr.  On September 15, 1995,
          MidSouth split its common stock four for three.  After September
          15, 1995, each share of MidSouth Convertible Preferred converted
          to common stock will result in the holder receiving 1.33 shares
          of common stock for each share of preferred stock converted.
          MidSouth's Convertible Preferred stock closed at $22.25 on
          November 9, 1995.

          Nonperforming Assets and Past Due Loans

          Table 2 on page 15 summarizes MidSouth's nonaccrual, past due and
          restructured loans and nonperforming assets.

          Nonperforming assets were $443,632 as of September 30, 1995, a
          decrease of $4,411 from the $448,043 reported for December 31,
          1994 and a decrease of $16,822 from the $460,454 reported for
          September 30, 1994.   Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO") increased
          $36,920 to $235,270 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995,
          primarily as a result of the addition of one OREO parcel acquired
          from Sugarland valued at $55,000.

          Loans past due 90 days or more increased from $134,304 in
          September 1994 to $104,060 in December 1994 and to $279,112 as of
          September 30, 1995.  The increase in the first nine months of
          1995 results primarily from the addition of a few large
          commercial loans.  Management has no serious doubts as to the
          borrowers' abilities to comply with the loan repayment terms.

          Specific reserves have been established in the Allowance for Loan
          and Lease Losses ("ALLL") to cover potential losses on
          nonperforming assets.  The ALLL is analyzed quarterly and
          additional reserves, if needed, are  allocated at that time.
          Management believes the $1,033,646 in the reserve as of September
          30, 1995 is sufficient to cover potential losses in nonperforming
          assets and in the loan portfolio.  Loans classified for
          regulatory purposes but not included in Table 2 do not represent
          material credits about which management has serious doubts as to
          the ability of the borrower to comply with loan repayment terms.
