PART 1.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

GENERAL

IBERIABANK Corporation (the "Company") is the bank holding company for
IBERIABANK (the "Bank") a wholly owned subsidiary, both headquartered in
Lafayette, Louisiana. The principal business of the Company is conducted through
the Bank, which is a Louisiana chartered commercial bank. The Bank operates 39
offices in its market areas located in south central Louisiana, north Louisiana
and the greater New Orleans area. The Bank provides a variety of financial
services to individuals and businesses throughout its service area. Primary
deposit products are checking, savings and certificate of deposit accounts and
primary lending products are consumer, commercial and mortgage loans. The Bank
also offers discount brokerage services through a wholly owned subsidiary and
insurance services to its clients through a joint venture between the Bank and a
Louisiana-based insurance agency. The Company's common stock trades on the
NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "IBKC." At December 31, 2002, the Company
had total assets of $1.6 billion, total deposits of $1.2 billion and
shareholders' equity of $139.6 million.


SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 28, 2003, the Company completed its acquisition of Acadiana
Bancshares, Inc. ("Acadiana"), Louisiana based holding company of LBA Savings
Bank ("LBA"). LBA operates five branch offices serving Lafayette and New Iberia,
Louisiana. As consideration, the Company issued 981,821 shares of common stock
and paid approximately $9.8 million in cash to Acadiana shareholders. In
accordance with FAS No. 141, the transaction was accounted for as a purchase.
For further information, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and
the Company's Current Report filed on Form 8-K dated February 28, 2003.


SEGMENTS

The Company has evaluated its potential operating segments against the
criteria specified in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131,
DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION, and has
determined that no operating segment disclosures are required in 2002, 2001 or
2000 because of the aggregation concepts in the Statement.


SUBSIDIARIES

The Bank has only one active, wholly owned subsidiary, Iberia Financial
Services, LLC. ("Iberia Services"). Through Iberia Services, the Bank offers
discount brokerage services. The brokerage services are provided through
ProEquities, Inc. At December 31, 2002, the Bank's equity investment in Iberia
Services was $5.2 million, and Iberia Services had total assets of $5.3 million.
The Bank is also engaged in a joint venture, IBERIABANK Insurance Services, LLC,
formed to offer insurance services to its clients.


COMPETITION

The Company faces strong competition both in attracting deposits and
originating loans. Its most direct competition for deposits has historically
come from other commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions located
in its market areas, including many large financial institutions that have
greater financial and marketing resources available to them. In addition, during
times of high interest rates, the Company has faced additional significant
competition for investors' funds from short-term money market securities, mutual
funds and other corporate and government securities. The ability of the Company
to attract and retain savings deposits depends on its ability to generally
provide a rate of return, liquidity and risk comparable to that offered by
competing investment opportunities.




The Company experiences strong competition for loan originations
principally from other commercial banks, savings institutions and mortgage
banking companies. The Company competes for loans principally through the
interest rates and loan fees it charges, the efficiency and quality of services
it provides borrowers and the convenient locations of its branch office network.
Competition may increase as a result of the continuing reduction of restrictions
on the interstate operations of financial institutions.


EMPLOYEES

The Company had 423 full-time employees and 59 part-time employees as
of December 31, 2002. None of these employees is represented by a collective
bargaining agreement. The Company believes that it enjoys excellent relations
with its personnel.


AVAILABLE INFORMATION

The Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"), including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q,
current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments thereto, are available on the
Company's website as soon as reasonably practicable after the reports are filed
with or furnished to the SEC. Copies can be obtained free of charge in the
"Explore Us: Investor Relations and Stock Quotes" section of the Company's
website at www.iberiabank.com.


SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

GENERAL. The banking industry is extensively regulated under both
federal and state law. The Company is subject to regulation under the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956 ("BHCA"). The BHCA requires the Company to obtain
the prior approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
("FRB") for bank and non-bank acquisitions and prescribes certain limitations in
connection with acquisitions and the non-banking activities of the Company. The
Company, as a bank holding company, is subject to regulation and supervision by
the Board of Governors of the FRB. The Bank is subject to regular examination
and comprehensive regulation and supervision by the Office of Financial
Institutions of the State of Louisiana ("OFI"), which is the Bank's chartering
authority and primary regulator. The Bank is also subject to certain reserve
requirements established by the FRB and is a member of the Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") of Dallas, which is one of the 12 regional banks comprising the
FHLB System. Through June 30, 2002, the Bank was subject to regulation by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Effective July 1, 2002, the Bank
became subject to the regulations of the FRB upon becoming a member of this
governing body. The FDIC continues to insure the deposits of the Bank to the
maximum extent permitted by law (a maximum of $100,000 for each insured
depositor).

The banking industry is affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of
the FRB. An important function of the FRB is to regulate the national supply of
bank credit to moderate recessions and to curb inflation. Among the instruments
of monetary policy used by the FRB to implement its objectives are: open-market
operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate and the
federal funds rate (which is the rate banks charge each other for overnight
borrowings) and changes in reserve requirements on bank deposits.

SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002. On July 30, 2002, the President of the
United States signed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "SOX Act") into law.
The SOX Act provides for sweeping changes with respect to corporate governance,
accounting policies and disclosure requirements for public companies, and also
for their directors and officers. Section 302 of the SOX Act ("Corporate
Responsibility for Financial Reports") required the SEC to adopt new rules to
implement the requirements of the SOX Act. These requirements include new
financial reporting requirements and rules concerning corporate governance. New
SEC rules, effective August 29, 2002, require a reporting company's chief
executive and chief financial officers to certify certain financial and other
information included in the company's quarterly and annual reports. The rules
also require these officers to certify that they are responsible for
establishing, maintaining and regularly evaluating the effectiveness of the
company's disclosure controls and procedures; that they have made certain
disclosures to the auditors and to the audit committee of the board of directors
about the company's controls and procedures; and that they have included
information in their quarterly and annual filings about their evaluation and
whether there have been significant changes to the controls and procedures or
other factors which would significantly impact these controls subsequent



to their evaluation. Certifications by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer of the financial statements and other information are
included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Item 14. - "Controls and
Procedures" hereof for the Company's evaluation of disclosure controls and
procedures. The certifications required by Section 906 of the SOX Act also
accompany this Form 10-K.

USA PATRIOT ACT. The President of the United States signed the USA
Patriot Act into law on October 26, 2001. The USA Patriot Act authorizes new
regulatory powers to combat international terrorism. The provisions that affect
financial institutions most directly are contained in Title III of the Act. In
general, Title III amends current law - primarily the Bank Secrecy Act - to
provide the federal government with enhanced authority to identify, deter, and
punish international money laundering and other crimes. Among other things, the
USA Patriot Act prohibits financial institutions from doing business with
foreign "shell" banks and requires increased due diligence for private banking
transactions and correspondent accounts for foreign banks. In addition,
financial institutions have to follow new minimum verification of identity
standards for all new accounts and are permitted to share information with law
enforcement authorities under circumstances that were not previously permitted.
These and other provisions of the USA Patriot Act became effective at varying
times and the Treasury Department and various federal banking agencies are
responsible for issuing regulations to implement the new law.

FINANCIAL MODERNIZATION LEGISLATION. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999
(the "GLB Act") includes a number of provisions intended to modernize and to
increase competition in the American financial services industry, including
authority for bank holding companies to engage in a wider range of nonbanking
activities. Under the GLB Act, a bank holding company that elects to become a
financial holding company may engage in any activity that the FRB, in
consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines by regulation or
order is (i) financial in nature, (ii) incidental to any such financial
activity, or (iii) complementary to any such financial activity and does not
pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository institutions or
the financial system generally. The GLB Act specifies certain activities that
are deemed to be financial in nature, including lending, exchanging,
transferring, investing for others, or safeguarding money or securities;
underwriting and selling insurance; providing financial, investment, or economic
advisory services; underwriting, dealing in or making a market in, securities;
and any activity currently permitted for bank holding companies by the FRB. A
bank holding company may elect to be treated as a financial holding company only
if all depository institution subsidiaries of the holding company are and
continue to be well-capitalized and well-managed and have at least a
satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act.

National banks and state banks with requisite investment authority
under applicable state law are also authorized by the GLB Act to engage, through
"financial subsidiaries," in any activity that is permissible for a financial
holding company (as described above) and any activity that the Secretary of the
Treasury, in consultation with the FRB, determines is financial in nature or
incidental to any such financial activity, except (i) insurance underwriting,
(ii) real estate development or real estate investment activities (unless
otherwise permitted by law), (iii) insurance company portfolio investments and
(iv) merchant banking. The authority of a bank to invest in a financial
subsidiary is subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things,
requirements that the bank must be well-managed and well-capitalized (after
deducting from capital the bank's outstanding investments in financial
subsidiaries).

The GLB Act also adopts a number of consumer protections, including
provisions intended to protect privacy of bank customers' financial information
and provisions requiring disclosure of ATM fees imposed by banks on customers of
other banks.

At this time, the Company has not determined whether it will become a
financial holding company in order to utilize the expanded powers offered by the
GLB Act. The Bank believes that the GLB Act's financial subsidiary provisions
and consumer protections have not had a material impact on its operations.


FEDERAL TAXATION

The Company and the Bank are subject to the generally applicable
corporate tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), and the Bank
is subject to certain additional provisions of the Code which apply to financial
institutions. The Company, the Bank and all subsidiaries file a consolidated
federal income tax return on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31.



Retained earnings at December 31, 2002 and 2001 included approximately
$14.8 million accumulated prior to January 1, 1987 for which no provision for
federal income taxes has been made. If this portion of retained earnings is used
in the future for any purpose other than to absorb bad debts, it will be added
to future taxable income.

The net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2002 includes $16,197,000 of
future deductible temporary differences. Included is $11,526,000 related to book
deductions for the bad debt reserve that have not been deducted for tax
purposes.


STATE TAXATION

Louisiana does not permit the filing of consolidated income tax
returns. The Company is subject to the Louisiana Corporation Income Tax based on
its separate Louisiana taxable income, as well as a corporate franchise tax. The
Bank is not subject to the Louisiana income or franchise taxes. However, the
Bank is subject to the Louisiana Shares Tax which is imposed on the assessed
value of its stock. The formula for deriving the assessed value is to calculate
15% of the sum of (a) 20% of the Company's capitalized earnings, plus (b) 80% of
the Company's taxable stockholders' equity, and to subtract from that figure 50%
of the Company's real and personal property assessment. Various items may also
be subtracted in calculating a company's capitalized earnings. The Louisiana
shares tax expense is included in noninterest expenses.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

As of December 31, 2002, the Company, through IBERIABANK, operates 39
offices in 3 areas of Louisiana. A total of 25 offices are owned and 14 are
leased. During 2002, two facilities, one in Morgan City and one in Monroe were
sold. The Company felt it was in its best interest to dispose of these
facilities.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is subject to certain claims and litigation arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation
with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to
have a material effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

Not applicable.

ITEM 14. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this report, an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures was carried out under the supervision, and with the participation of,
the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"). Based
on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms. Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, there were no significant
changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect the disclosure controls, including any corrective actions
with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also
designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and
communicated to the Company's management, including the CEO and the CFO, as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Disclosure controls include internal controls that are designed to provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are properly authorized, assets are
safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and transactions are properly
recorded and reported.

Any control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can
provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are achieved. The design
of a control system inherently has limitations, including the controls' cost
relative to their benefits. Additionally, controls can be circumvented. No
cost-effective control system can provide absolute assurance that all control
issues and instances of fraud, if any, will be detected.
