TECHE HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine
month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 include the accounts of
Teche Holding Company (the "Company") and its subsidiary, Teche Federal
Savings Bank (the "Bank"). The Company's business is conducted
principally through the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and
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 accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. 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, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results which
may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other period.

NOTE 3 - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company applies the Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No.
25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options.
Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized. The Company has
adopted the disclosure-only option under SFAS No. 123. Had compensation
costs for the Company's stock options been determined based on the fair
value at the grant date, consistent with the method under SFAS No. 123,
the Company's net income and income per share would have been as
indicated below:

Landry Financial Corporation ("St. Landry"). The acquisition will be
accounted for as a purchase and the results of St. Landry's operations
will be included in the consolidated financial statements of the
Company from the date of acquisition. St. Landry operated two banking
offices in southern Louisiana. The Company acquired St. Landry in
order to expand the geographic area in which its services are offered.

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

General

The Private Securities Litigation Reform act of 1995 contains safe harbor
provisions regarding forward-looking statements. When used in this discussion,
the words "believe", "anticipates", "contemplates", "expects", and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include
changes in interest rates, risk associated with the effect of opening new
branches, the ability to control costs and expenses, and general economic
conditions. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results
of any revisions to those forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect
events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrences of
unanticipated events.

The Company's consolidated results of operations are primarily dependent on the
Bank's net interest income, or the difference between the interest incomes
earned on its loan, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities
portfolios, and the interest expense paid on its savings deposits and other
borrowings. Net interest income is affected not only by the difference between
the yields earned on interest-earning assets and the costs incurred on
interest-bearing liabilities, but also by the relative amounts of such
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Other components of net income include: provisions for losses on loans and other
assets; noninterest income (primarily, service charges on deposit accounts and
other fees, net rental income, and gains and losses on investment activities);
noninterest expenses (primarily, compensation and employee benefits, federal
insurance premiums, office occupancy expense, marketing expense and expenses
associated with foreclosed real estate) and income taxes.

Earnings of the Company also are significantly affected by economic and
competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government
policies and regulations of regulatory authorities.

References to the "Bank" herein, unless the context requires otherwise, refer to
the Company on a consolidated basis.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003

The Company's total assets at June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003 totaled
$580.5 million and $536.9 million, respectively, an increase of $43.6 million or
8.1%.

Securities available-for-sale totaled $98.3 million and securities held to
maturity totaled $23.2 million at June 30, 2004, which represents an aggregate
decrease of $8.1 million or 6.3% as compared to September 30, 2003.

Loans receivable totaled $406.1 million at June 30, 2004, which represented a
$49.0 million or 13.7% increase compared to September 30, 2003. Loans increased
during the quarter and nine month periods by $15.6 million or 3.8% and $49.0
million or 13.7%, respectively. These increases resulted primarily from growth
in the residential and commercial mortgage portfolios.


7



Total deposits, after interest credited, at June 30, 2004, were $366.3 million,
which represents an increase of $17.1 million or 4.9% as compared to September
30, 2003.

At June 30, 2004, advances increased $26.4 million or 20.9% as compared to the
amount at September 30, 2003, primarily to fund growth in net loans. These
increases resulted primarily from growth in the residential and commercial
mortgage portfolios.

Stockholders' equity increased to $58.0 million at June 30, 2004, from $57.0
million at September 30, 2003, primarily due to earnings, offset partially by
dividends, stock repurchased and reduction in market value of securities
available for sale. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2004, the
Company repurchased approximately 48,000 shares at an average price of
approximately $35.95 per share.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended June 30,
2004 and 2003

Net Income. The Company had net income of $1.4 million or $0.60 per diluted
share, and $4.5 million or $1.90 per diluted share, for the three and nine
months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to net income of $1.8 million or $0.74
per diluted share, and $4.8 million or $1.98 per diluted share, for the three
and nine month periods ended June 30, 2003, respectively.

Total Interest Income. Total interest income increased $250,000 or 3.4% and
decreased $119,000 or 0.5% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004,
respectively, as compared to the same periods ended June 30, 2003. The average
balance of loans increased in the 2004 periods as compared to the 2003 periods
but the increases were more than offset by a decrease in the average yield on
loans to 6.49% for the nine months ended June 30, 2004, from 7.44% for the same
period in 2003.

Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $96,000 or 2.9% and
$921,000 or 8.8%, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended June
30, 2004 primarily due to a decrease in interest rates paid on deposits and
advances.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $346,000 or 8.7% and $802,000
or 6.7% for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2004, as compared to
the same periods ended June 30, 2003. Interest rates paid on deposits and
advances continued to decrease during the periods as a result of lower market
interest rates. Additionally, the Company increased the origination of consumer
and commercial loans, which have higher interest rates than mortgage loans.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provisions for loan losses were $15,000 and
$45,000 for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2004, as compared to
$15,000 and $60,000 for the same periods in 2003.

Management periodically estimates the likely level of losses to determine
whether the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable 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. These estimates are made at
least every quarter and there has been no significant changes in the Company's
estimation methods during the current period.


8


Management's judgment as to the level of the allowance for loan losses involves
the consideration of current 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. In addition, management considers changes in loan
concentrations, quality and terms that occurred during the period in determining
the appropriate amount of the allowance for loan losses. Because certain types
of loans have higher credit risk, greater concentrations of such loans may
result in an increase to the allowance. For this reason, management segregates
the loan portfolio by type of loan and number of days of past due loans.
Management also considers qualitative factors in determining the amount of the
allowance such as the level of and trends in non-performing loans during the
period, the Bank's historical loss experience and historical charge-off
percentages for state and national savings associations for similar types of
loans. Because the Bank's charge-offs have historically been low and,
consequently, additions to the allowance have been more reflective of other
qualitative factors such as the types of loans added during the period and
statistical analysis of local and national charge-off percentages.

Non-Interest Income. Total non-interest income decreased $475,000 and increased
$115,000 for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively.
The decrease during the current quarter resulted from a gain on the sale of
mortgage loans in the amount of $536,000 last year that was not present in the
current quarter. The increase during the current nine month period was primarily
due to an increase in fee income from demand deposit accounts which was greater
than the $536,000 gain on the sale of mortgage loans included in the prior
year's period. The increase is attributable to management's continuing focus on
charging appropriate fees for the Bank's services and also to a higher volume of
service charge transactions and accounts.

Gain on Sale of Securities. The Company realized a gain of $99,000 and $131,000
in the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2004 from the sale of equity
securities.

Non-Interest Expense. Total non-interest expense increased $655,000 and $1.7
million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004, as
compared to the same periods in 2003 due primarily to higher personnel costs
resulting from expanded hours and new branches opened in the Baton Rouge and
Lafayette markets.

Income Tax Expense. Income taxes remained relatively stable for the three and
nine months periods.



9


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Under current OTS regulations, the Bank is required to maintain certain levels
of capital. As of June 30, 2004, the Bank was in compliance with its three
regulatory capital requirements as follows:


Amount Percent
------ -------
(In thousands)

Tangible capital....................... $51,486 8.86%
Tangible capital requirement........... 11,619 2.00%
------- -----
Excess over requirement................ $39,867 6.86%
======= =====

Core capital........................... $51,486 8.86%
Core capital requirement............... 23,237 4.00%
------- -----
Excess over requirement................ $28,249 4.86%
======= =====

Risk based capital..................... $54,733 15.99%
Risk based capital requirement......... 27,375 8.00%
------- -----
Excess over requirement................ $27,358 7.99%
======= =====

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
repayments 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, 2004, such borrowed funds totaled $152.7
million. Loan payments, maturing investments and mortgage-backed security
prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic
conditions and competition.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
