SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
include the accounts of Hancock Holding Company, its wholly owned banks,
Hancock Bank, Hancock Bank of Louisiana and First National Bank of Denham
Springs since its acquisition on January 13, 1995, and other subsidiaries.
Intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.

       The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule
10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the entire year.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto of Hancock Holding Company's 1994 Annual Report to
Shareholders.

RECENT CHANGES IN FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

       The Company adopted Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," effective January 1, 1995.
SFAS No. 114 requires the measurement of impaired loans be based on the present
value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
rate, or at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of its
collateral.  SFAS No. 114 does not apply to large groups of smaller balance
homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment.  For the
Company, loans collectively evaluated for impairment include all single family
mortgage loans, loans to individuals for household family and other consumer
expenditures and commercial and industrial and real estate loans ("major
loans") under a certain dollar amount, excluding loans which have entered the
workout process.  The adoption of SFAS No. 114 did not result in additional
provisions for loan losses due to the Company's continuing policy of measuring
loan impairment based on methods prescribed in SFAS No. 114.

       The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon current
information and events, it believes it is probable that the Company will be
unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the
loan agreement.  The Company's impaired loans within the scope of SFAS No. 114
include troubled debt restructurings, and performing and non-performing major
loans in which full payment of principal or interest is not expected.

       The Company also adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and




                                  Page 6 of 12
<PAGE>   7
Disclosures," effective January 1, 1995.  This statement allows a creditor to
use existing methods for recognizing interest income on impaired loans and thus
the adoption of SFAS No. 114 did not result in any change in the amount of
interest income reported.

       The Company's impaired loans amounted to approximately  1/2% of total
loans at June 30, 1995 and the related reserve amount was not significant at
that date.  There was no significant change in these amounts during the six
months ended June 30, 1995.  Interest income recognized on these loans amounted
to approximately $200,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.

ACQUISITIONS

       On January 31, 1995, the Company merged Washington Bancorp, Inc.
(Washington), Franklinton, Louisiana, and merged its wholly owned subsidiary,
Washington Bank & Trust Company, with Hancock Bank of Louisiana.  The merger
was consummated by the exchange of all outstanding common stock of Washington
in return for approximately 542,350 shares of common stock of the Company.  The
merger was accounted for using the pooling-of-interests method effective
February 1, 1995 and accordingly all prior periods' financial information has
been restated.  Washington had total assets of approximately $86,100,000 and
stockholders' equity of approximately $12,400,000 as of December 31, 1994.  Net
interest income and net earnings of the separate companies for the periods
preceding the acquisition were as follows:

       On January 13, 1995, the Company merged with First Denham Bancshares,
Inc. (Bancshares) which owns 100% of the stock of First National Bank of Denham
Springs, Denham Springs, Louisiana.  The merger was in return for approximately
$4,000,000 cash and 774,098 shares of common stock of the Company.  The merger
was accounted for using the purchase method.  Bancshares had total assets of
approximately $111,000,000 and stockholders' equity of approximately
$10,300,000 as of December 31, 1994 and net earnings of approximately
$2,500,000 for the year then ended.

(1)    Equity capital consists of stockholder's equity (common stock, capital
       surplus and undivided profits).

(2)    Total capital consists of equity capital less intangible assets plus a
       limited amount of loan loss reserves.  Risk-weighted assets represent
       the assigned risk portion of all on and off balance sheet assets.  Based
       on Federal Reserve Board guidelines, assets are assigned a risk factor
       percentage from 0% to 100%.  A minimum ratio of total capital to
       risk-weighted assets of 8% is required.

(3)    Tier 1 capital consists of equity capital less intangible assets.  A
       minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk- weighted assets of 4% is
       required.

(4)    Leverage capital consists of equity capital less goodwill and core
       deposit intangibles.  The Federal Reserve Board currently requires bank
       holding companies rated Composite 1 under the BOPEC rating system to
       maintain a minimum 3% leverage capital ratio and all other bank holding
       companies not rated a Composite 1 under the BOPEC rating system to
       maintain a minimum 4% to 5% leverage capital ratio.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Earnings

       Net earnings increased 22% or $1,207,000 for the second quarter of 1995.
Net earnings for the first six months of 1995 increased 23% or $2,522,000 from
the comparable period in 1994.  The increase in earnings for the first six
months and quarter is attributed to an acquisition in January of 1995 accounted
for as a purchase and increased net interest margin as a result of higher loan
and investment yields.

Provision for Loan Losses

       The amount of the reserve equals the cumulative total of the provisions
for loan losses, reduced by actual loan charge-offs, and increased by reserves
acquired in acquisitions and recoveries of loans previously charged-off.
Provisions are made to the reserve to reflect the currently perceived risks of
loss associated with the company's loan portfolio.  A specific loan is
charged-off when management believes, after considering, among other things,
the borrower's condition and the value of any collateral, that collection of
the loan is unlikely.

       The following ratios are useful in determining the adequacy of the loan
loss reserve and loan loss provision and are calculated using average loan
balances.

Income Taxes

       The effective tax rate of the Company continues to be less than the
statutory rate of 35%, due primarily to tax- exempt interest income.  The
amount of tax-exempt income earned during the first six months of 1995 was
$2,133,365 compared to $1,772,911 for the comparable period in 1994.  Income
tax expense increased from $4,953,000 in the first six months of 1994 to
$6,608,000 in the first six months of 1995.  This increase is primarily due to
increased net income.
