NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2002

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 nine (9) months ended
September 30, 2002. 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.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002.

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 our correspondent
banks, public fund time deposits, 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. 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 17.94% and Tier one
capital ratio was 7.67% at September 30, 2002. The bank only risk based
capital ratio was 17.90% and Tier one capital ratio was 7.65%. Our capital
ratio declined for the quarter as the result of our obtaining the contract
for the St. Martin Parish School Board. The School Board contract rotates for
a two year period between all of the Banks in St. Martin Parish. Our two
year term began in August 2002 and will end July 31, 2004. The School Board
is maintaining an average of about $8,000,000 on deposit. 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. Management is monitoring our capital ratio and
asset growth to assure that the bank will continue to have adequate capital
to support its assets.

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 September 30, 2002, were $35,807 a decrease of
$158,331 from December 31, 2001. Loans on which the accrual of interest had
been discontinued at September 30, 2002 totalled $32,344.

We own one piece of other real estate. At the present time our other real
estate is leased at the rate of $1,300 per month. The lessee has an option
to purchase the property at the end of the lease. We are writing down our
other real estate $1,957 per month. At September 30, 2002 other real estate
totalled $156,888 which is down $17,616 from December 31, 2001.



Results of Operations

Net Income. Our net income for the nine (9) months ended September 30, 2002
was $321,191 down $9,511 as compared to that of the same period last year.
The decrease in net income was mostly attributed to an increase in salaries
and employee benefits and an increase in operating expenses.

Revenue. Our net interest income for the nine (9) months ended September 30,
2002 is down $11,977 as compared to the same period in 2001. Total interest
income decreased $303,225. The decrease was due to a lower interest rate
environment this year. Total interest expense decreased $293,082. The
effect of the Federal Reserve Bank's rate reductions was to reprice our loans
and investments quicker than our deposits. Our net interest margin has
improved steadily each month this year as our deposits have repriced.

Provision for Loan Losses. Our bad debt reserve totalled $326,815 at
September 30, 2002 which represents 1.02% of our gross loans. During the
nine months of 2002, we added $33,331 to our reserve for loan loss account.
We increased our provision for loan losses to set aside reserves for the
increase in loans that we have experienced. Our reserve for loan loss
balance was considered adequate at September 30, 2002.

Other Income. Other income was up $36,776 as compared to the same period last
year. The improvement in other income was due to an increase in the amount
we charge on demand deposit accounts, an increase in sales of accidental
death and disability insurance, and an increase in charges for check cashing.

Other Expenses. Other expenses are up $39,574 as compared to the same time
last year. Other expenses increased due to increases in salaries and
employee benefits, and other operating expense. Salaries and benefits
increased as the result of raises that were given in the fourth quarter of
2001. Other operating expense increased due to increases in ad valorem tax
expense, other losses on the sale of a repossessed automobile, and increases
in the amount paid to the Federal Reserve Bank for the volume of checks
processed.

Provision for Income Tax. A provision is made for income tax to reflect three
fourths (9/12ths) of the annualized income tax that we anticipate we will
incur. The provision for income tax for the period ended September 30, 2002
was $154,245 as compared to $159,509 for the same period last year. Income
tax expense decreased due to a decrease in income for the current year.
