         The consolidated  financial statements as of and for the three and nine
         month  periods  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999  include  the  accounts of
         Teche Holding Company (the "Company") and its subsidiary, Teche Federal
         Savings  Bank  (the  "Bank").   The  Company's  business  is  conducted

         transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements were prepared in
         accordance  with  instructions  for Form  10-Q and,  therefore,  do not
         include  all  information  necessary  for a  complete  presentation  of
         consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows
         in conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles.  However,
         all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which, in the
         opinion of  management,  are necessary for a fair  presentation  of the
         consolidated  financial  statements have been included.  The results of
         operations  for the  period  ended  June 30,  2000 are not  necessarily
         indicative  of the results  which may be expected for the entire fiscal
         year or any other period.

NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

         Following is a summary of the  information  used in the  computation of
         basic and diluted income per common share for the three and nine months

NOTE 4 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The  Corporation  adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 130
"Reporting  Comprehensive  Income" ("SFAS 130") effective  October 1, 1998. SFAS
130 establishes  standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components. Comprehensive income includes net income and other comprehensive
income which, in the case of the Corporation, only includes unrealized gains and
losses  on  securities  available-for-sale.   Following  is  a  summary  of  the
Corporation's  comprehensive  income for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

The  Company  may  from  time  to time  make  written  or oral  "forward-looking
statements"   including  statements  contained  in  this  Report  and  in  other
communications by the Company which are made in good faith pursuant to the "safe
harbor"  provisions  of the Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995.
These  forward-looking  statements,  such as statements of the Company's  plans,
objectives,   expectations,   estimates  and   intentions,   involve  risks  and
uncertainties and are subject to change based on various important factors (some
of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, among others,
could cause the Company's  financial  performance to differ  materially from the
plans,  objectives,  expectations,  estimates and  intentions  expressed in such
forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general
and  the  strength  of  the  local  economies  in  which  the  Company  conducts
operations;  the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies
and laws,  including  interest  rate  policies of the Board of  Governors of the
Federal  Reserve  System,   inflation,   interest  rate,   market  and  monetary
fluctuations;  the timely  development  of and  acceptance  of new  products and
services of the Company and the perceived  overall  value of these  products and
services by users,  including  the  features,  pricing  and quality  compared to
competitors'  products and  services;  the  willingness  of users to  substitute
competitors' products and services for the Company's products and services;  the
success of the  Company in  gaining  regulatory  approval  of its  products  and
services,  when required;  the impact of changes in financial services' laws and
regulations   (including  laws  concerning   taxes,   banking,   securities  and
insurance);  technological changes;  acquisitions;  changes in consumer spending
and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks involved
in the foregoing.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999

The  Company's  total  assets at June 30, 2000 and  September  30, 1999  totaled
$462.3 million and $434.3 million, respectively, an increase of $28.0 million or
6.5%.

Securities  available-for-sale  totaled  $57.0  million at June 30, 2000,  which
represents  a decrease of $6.5  million or 10.2% as compared  to  September  30,
1999, due to maturity of securities during this period.

Loans  receivable  totaled $373.8 million at June 30, 2000 which  represented an
increase of $30.9 million or 9.0% compared to September 30, 1999.  This increase
was primarily due to increased loan originations during the period.

Total deposits increased to $308.7 million at June 30, 2000, an increase of $5.6
million or 1.8% as compared to September 30, 1999.

Advances  from the Federal Home Loan Bank  ("FHLB")  increased  $24.1 million or
30.6% to $102.8  million at June 30, 2000 from $78.7  million at  September  30,
1999, primarily in order to fund loan growth during the period.

Stockholders'  equity  decreased to $47.5  million at June 30, 2000,  from $48.7
million at September 30, 1999,  primarily as a result of stock  repurchased  and
cash  dividends  paid,  offset  somewhat by earnings for the nine month  period.
During the nine month  period,  the  Company  repurchased  227,528  shares at an
average price of $13.95 per share.

Comparison  of  Operating  Results for the Three and Nine Months  Ended June 30,
2000 and 1999

Net Income.  The Company had net income of $962,000 and $2,746,000 for the three
and nine months  ended June 30,  2000 as compared to net income of $892,000  and
$2,635,000   for  the  three  and  nine  month  periods  ended  June  30,  1999,
respectively.  The increases during both periods were due primarily to increased
fee income on deposit accounts.

Total Interest Income.  Total interest income increased by $823,000 or 10.9% and
$1,776,000  or  7.9%  for the  three  and  nine  months  ended  June  30,  2000,
respectively, as compared to the same periods ending June 30, 1999 due primarily
to an  increase in the average  balances of loans and  investments.  The average
yield on loans  decreased  to 7.72% for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 from
7.78% in 1999, while the average yield on investments increased to 6.51% for the
nine months ended June 30, 2000, from 6.02% in 1999.

Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased 21.0% and 13.0% for the
three and nine month  periods  primarily  due to an  increase  in  deposits  and
advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income remained relatively stable,  decreasing
slightly for the three months  ended June 30, 2000 and  increasing  1.8% for the
nine months ended June 30, 2000,  as compared to the same periods ended June 30,
1999.

Provision  for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses was unchanged for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 and decreased $30,000 for the nine months ended
June 30, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999.

Management  periodically  estimates  the  likely  level of losses  to  determine
whether the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb  possible  losses in
the  existing  portfolio.  Based on these  estimates,  an amount is  charged  or
credited  to the  provision  for loan  losses  and  credited  or  charged to the
allowance for loan losses in order to adjust the allowance to a level determined
to be adequate to absorb anticipated future losses.

Management's  judgment as to the level of losses on existing  loans involves the
consideration of current and anticipated economic conditions and their potential
effects on specific borrowers, an evaluation of the existing relationships among
loans,  known and inherent  risks in the loan portfolio and the present level of
the  allowance,  results of  examination  of the loan  portfolio  by  regulatory
agencies and management's internal review of the loan portfolio.  In determining
the collectibility of certain loans, management also considers the fair value of
any underlying collateral.

Non-interest  Income.  Total non-interest income increased $278,000 and $814,000
for the three and nine month  periods  ended  June 30,  2000,  primarily  due to
increased service charges.

Non-interest   Expense.   Total  non-interest  expense  increased  $126,000  and
$880,000, respectively, during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2000, as
compared to the same periods in 1999 due primarily to increases in  compensation
and employee benefits and occupancy expense.  Occupancy expense increased during
the periods due to the opening of a new branch office in Lafayette, Louisiana.

Income Tax Expense.  Income taxes remained  relatively stable as a percentage of
income before income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Under current  Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS")  regulations,  the Bank is
required to maintain  certain levels of capital.  At June 30, 2000, the Bank was
in compliance with its three regulatory capital requirements as follows:

                                                 Amount            Percent

                                                =======            =====

Management  believes that under current  regulations,  the Bank will continue to
meet its minimum capital  requirements in the foreseeable future.  Events beyond
the control of the Bank,  such as increased  interest rates or a downturn in the
economy  in areas in which  the Bank  operates  could  adversely  affect  future
earnings  and as a result,  the  ability of the Bank to meet its future  minimum
capital requirements.

The Bank's  liquidity is a measure of its ability to fund loans, pay withdrawals
of deposits, and other cash outflows in an efficient, cost effective manner. The
Bank's  primary  source of funds are deposits  and  scheduled  amortization  and
prepayment  of loan  and  mortgage-backed  principal.  The  Bank  also  utilizes
advances  from the  Federal  Home  Loan Bank of Dallas  for its  investment  and
lending  activities.  As of June 30, 2000,  such borrowed  funds totaled  $102.8
million.  Loan  payments,  maturing  investments  and  mortgage-backed  security
prepayments  are  greatly   influenced  by  general  interest  rates,   economic
conditions and competition.

The Bank is required  under federal  regulations to maintain  certain  specified
levels of "liquid  investments,"  which include certain United States government
obligations and other approved investments. Current regulations require the Bank
to maintain liquid assets of not less than 4% of its net  withdrawable  accounts
plus short term  borrowings.  This level may be changed from time to time by the
regulators  to reflect  current  economic  conditions.  The Bank has  maintained
liquidity in excess of regulatory requirements.  Furthermore, from time to time,
the Bank  utilizes  FHLB  advances  to the  extent  necessary  to  maintain  its
liquidity.
