Asset Quality

    Non-performing assets totaled $17.3 million, or 2.3% of total assets, at
March 31, 2010, compared to $11.9 million, or 1.58% of total assets, at
December 31, 2009, and $8.3 million, or 1.05% of total assets, a year ago.
Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans, accruing loans 90 days
or more past due and other real estate owned.

    The $5.4 million increase this quarter was primarily due to loans totaling
$6.4 to a commercial credit relationship involving a residential land
development and five show homes in the Baton Rouge market area that the
borrower of which filed for protection under chapter 11 bankruptcy. Due to
the bankruptcy, Management indicated that an extended period of time may
be required to resolve this credit but feels that the allowance for loan
loss is adequate to absorb losses, if any.

    The following table sets forth asset quality ratios for each of the past
five quarters:


                               Mar '10  Dec '09  Sep '09  Jun '09  Mar '09

 reserves)                        2.00%    1.58%    1.19%    1.27%    1.05%

    
Net charge-offs for the quarter were $0.4 million, or 0.07% of average
loans, compared to $0.2 million or 0.03% of average loans for the same
period a year ago. For the last four quarters, net charge-offs were 0.36%
of average loans.

    The following table sets forth the activity in the allowance for loan
losses for each of the past 5 quarters.

Net Interest Income

    Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 amounted to
$7.4 million compared to $7.0 million for the quarter ended March 31,
2009, an increase of 5.3%, or $0.4 million primarily due to a decrease in
the cost of interest bearing liabilities.

    Net Interest Margin and Spread

                               Mar '10  Dec '09  Sep '09  Jun '09  Mar '09
                               -------  -------  -------  -------  -------
Yield on Earning Assets           5.99%    6.01%    6.01%    6.07%    6.11%
Cost of Interest Bearing
 Liabilities                      1.91%    1.99%    2.12%    2.22%    2.47%
Spread                            4.08%    4.02%    3.88%    3.85%    3.64%
Net Interest Margin               4.29%    4.26%    4.14%    4.12%    3.92%


    
Net interest margin amounted to 4.29% for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2010; compared to 3.92% for the three-months ended March 31,
2009. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in the cost of interest
bearing liabilities.

    Spread amounted to 4.08% for the three month period ended March 31, 2010,
compared to 3.64% for the same period in the previous year. Compared to
the same quarter last year, average yield on earnings assets decreased 12
basis points from 6.11% to 5.99%, while average cost of funds decreased 56
basis points from 2.47% to 1.91%.

    "Our increased net interest income this quarter compared to fiscal 2009 is
the result of our focus on SmartGrowth Deposits and Loans, and also due to
lower market interest rates," said Little. "The result has been higher
margin and higher spread."

    Non Interest Income

    Non-interest income remained stable at $4.0 million for the quarter
compared to $4.0 million in the linked quarter and $4.1 million a year
ago. This amounted to 2.08% of average assets for the quarter, compared
to 2.11% for the linked quarter and 2.12% a year ago. Deposit fees
comprised 90.2% of non-interest income for the quarter, compared to 91.9%
for the linked quarter and 90.9% a year ago.

    Non-interest income amounted to 34.7% of operating income for the quarter
ended March 31, 2010, compared to 37.0% for the three months ended March
31, 2009 and to 35.1% for the linked quarter.

    "There has been considerable interest and discussion regarding the
potential impact to non-interest income because of the effect of the new
debit card 'opt-in' regulation," said Little. "At Teche, we started our
opt-in program early. Thus far, we have engaged over 85% of our customers
and over 82%, or approximately 96% of those engaged, have opted in. It is
clear that our customers appreciate and value our services. Of the few
customers not opting-in, the majority seldom incur services charges. We
expect that, by the August 15 deadline, approximately 95% of our affected
customers will have opted-in. Debit card related service charge income is
less than 30% of non-interest income. As a result, we believe that the new
regulation will not have a material effect on our non-interest income. It
is also possible that we could see an increase in new customers who
appreciate this service that other banks may discontinue."

    Non Interest Expense

    For the quarter, non-interest expense was $8.0 million or 4.20% of average
assets, compared to the linked quarter of $7.6 million or 4.01% of average
assets, an increase of 5.3%, primarily due to compensation and occupancy
expenses. Compared to the same quarter in fiscal 2009, non-interest
expense increased slightly.

"The bottom line is that our net income has been consistent and
substantial for the past five quarters," said Little.

    Since 2003, the Company has increased dividends for seven consecutive
years and on March 31, 2010 paid a $0.355 per share quarterly dividend,
its fifty-ninth consecutive. Based on the closing price of the Company's
common stock on March 31, 2010 of $32.90, the annualized dividend yield
was
4.3%.

increased to $33.27, from $31.33 a year ago, an increase of $1.94, or

various capital ratios by organic capital growth. We are very pleased
that we did not take TARP," said Little.
