of Operations

The following presents Management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated
financial condition and results of operations of Peoples Financial Corporation
and Subsidiaries (the Company) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
These comments highlight the significant events and should be considered in
combination with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report

OVERVIEW

The significant development during the first six months of 1998 was the sale of
a branch location in Gulfport, MS, for a realized gain, net of taxes, of
$3,300,000 for book purposes. The transaction was structured for tax purposes
under the provisions of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code so as to
qualify most of the transaction for the tax benefits of a like-kind exchange.
The proceeds of the transaction are being reinvested in replacement properties.
All transactions relating to this matter will be completed by August 4, 1998.
The following schedule compares financial highlights for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997:

FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD

Federal funds sold were $700,000 at June 30, 1998 compared with federal funds
sold of $6,550,000 at June 30, 1997. This fluctuation is directly related to the
liquidity needs of the bank subsidiary.

LOANS

Loans increased $35,775,000 at June 30, 1998, as compared with June 30, 1997, as
a result of increased loan demand in the Company's trade area. The Company
anticipates that this increased demand will continue throughout the remainder of
1998. The allowance for loan losses decreased $96,000 due to net charge-offs
during the six months ended June 30, 1998. Likewise, the allowance for loan
losses as a % of loans, net of unearned discount, has decreased from 1.89% at
June 30, 1997, to 1.61% at June 30, 1998. Management continues to monitor the
volume and quality of its loan portfolio and has determined that the allowance
is adequate.

OTHER REAL ESTATE

Other real estate increased $130,000 as June 30, 1998, as compared with June 30,
1997, as a result of an increase in properties transferred to Other Real Estate
due to foreclosure.

OTHER ASSETS

Other assets increased $3,759,000 at June 30, 1998, as compared with June 30,
1997, primarily as a result of the receivable relating to the like-kind exchange
described in the Overview.

DEPOSITS

Total deposits have increased $16,654,000 at June 30, 1998, as compared with
June 30, 1997. Significant increases or decreases in total deposits are
anticipated by Management as customers in the casino industry and county and
municipal areas reallocate their resources periodically. As discussed above, the
Company has managed its funds including planning the timing of investment
maturities so as to achieve appropriate liquidity.

FEDERAL FUNDS PURCHASED AND SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
increased $4,500,000 at June 30, 1998, as compared with June 30, 1997. This
fluctuation is entirely due to the introduction of a new non-deposit product
during the second quarter of 1998.

OTHER LIABILITIES

Other liabilities have increased $1,584,000 at June 30, 1998, as compared with
June 30, 1997, primarily as the result of deferred taxes on the gain on the sale
of property pursuant to a like-kind exchange for tax purposes.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY

Strength, security and stability have been the hallmark of the Company since its
founding in 1985 and of its bank subsidiary since its founding in 1896. A strong
capital foundation is fundamental to the continuing prosperity of the Company
and the security of its customers and shareholders. One measure of capital
adequacy is the primary capital ratio which was 16.36% at June 30, 1998, as
compared with 15.21% at June 30, 1997. These ratios are well above the
regulatory minimum of 6.00%. Management continues to emphasize the importance of
maintaining the appropriate capital levels of the Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, the amount by which interest income on loans, investments
and other interest earning assets exceeds interest expense on deposits and other
borrowed funds, is the single largest component of the Company's income.
Management's objective is to provide the largest possible amount of income while
balancing interest rate, credit, liquidity and capital risk.

Net interest income increased $168,000 for the second quarter of 1998 as
compared with the second quarter of 1997. Net interest income increased $357,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with the six months ended
June 30, 1997. Total interest income increased $437,000 for the quarter ended
June 30, 1998, as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 1997. Total interest
income increased $654,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared
with the six months ended June 30, 1997. Total interest expense increased
$269,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, as compared with quarter ended
June 30, 1997. Total interest expense increased $297,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1997. The
following schedule summarizes net interest earnings and net yield on interest
earning assets:

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company has not charged a provision for loan losses to operating expense
since 1993. The Company carefully monitors the quality and volume of its loan
portfolio. Based on current conditions, Management feels that the allowance for
loan losses is adequate and does not anticipate any provision for loan losses
during 1998.

OTHER INCOME

During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company realized a gain of
$5,083,000 for book purposes as the result of the sale of one of its branch
locations, as mentioned previously in the Overview.

OTHER EXPENSE

Other expense increased $445,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as
compared with the same period during 1997, largely as the result of expenses
relating to the computer conversion.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity represents the Company's ability to adequately provide funds to
satisfy demands from depositors, borrowers and other commitments by either
converting assets to cash or accessing new or existing sources of funds.
Management monitors these funds requirements in such a manner as to satisfy
these demands and provide the maximum earnings on its earning assets. Deposits,
payments of principal and interest on loans, proceeds from maturities of
investment securities and earnings on investment securities are the principal
sources of funds for the Company. At June 30, 1998, cash and due from banks,
investment securities and federal funds sold were 46% of total deposits, as
compared with 51% at June 30, 1997.
