ACQUISITION OF BRANCH On June 21, 2002 MidSouth acquired the Morgan City, Louisiana branch of IberiaBank for an amount which was approximately $500,000 in excess of book value of those assets on IberiaBank's books. The purchase included, among other things, approximately $6.0 million of cash, $5.4 million of loans, and the assumption of $12.2 million of deposits. MidSouth is presently evaluating the assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and expects to complete that evaluation by December 31, 2002. It is presently estimated that any intangible associated with this acquisition will relate to core deposit intangibles and will be amortized over approximately 8 - 10 years on an accelerated basis. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION This review should be read in conjunction with MidSouth Bancorp Inc.'s ("MidSouth") consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained herein, as well as with MidSouth's 2001 annual consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis. MidSouth Bancorp, Inc. announced net income of $1,241,673 for the third quarter of 2002, a 59% increase compared to $783,127 for the third quarter of 2001. Basic earnings per share were $.43 and $.29 for the quarters ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Diluted earnings per share were $.42 for the third quarter of 2002 compared to $.27 for the third quarter of 2001. The increase resulted from increases of $555,797 in net interest income, attributable primarily to a decline in interest expense, and of $585,273 in non-interest income, primarily due to increased transaction volume on deposit accounts. The increases in net interest income and non-interest income were partially offset by a $477,848 increase in non- interest expense which included increases in salaries and benefits, building lease expense, maintenance and depreciation of computer hardware and software and other professional fees. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 totaled $3,147,049 compared to $2,048,141 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Basic earnings per share were $1.09 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and $.79 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Diluted earnings per share were $1.07 compared to $.72 for the two nine month periods, respectively. Increases in net interest income of $972,171 and non- interest income of $1,198,131 were partially offset by a $1,227,690 increase in non-interest expense, but a decrease in provision for loan losses of $673,417 helped to boost net earnings 54% in year-to-date comparison. MidSouth ended the third quarter 2002 with consolidated assets of $382.3 million, an increase of $30.4 million from the $351.9 million reported at September 30, 2001. Interest-bearing deposits increased $26.0 million and total deposits increased $31.8 million, from $310.8 million at September 30, 2001 to $342.6 million at September 30, 2002. Loans, net of Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALL"), increased $20.6 million or 10%, from $211.5 million in the third quarter of 2001 to $232.1 million in the third quarter of 2002. Provisions for loan and lease losses totaled $429,250 in the third quarter of 2002 compared to $439,323 in the third quarter of 2001, and $1,123,250 in the first nine months of 2002 compared to $1,796,667 in the comparable 2001 period. Provisions for loan losses were higher in 2001 due to the default and charge-off of a large commercial loan in the second quarter of that year. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans increased from .09% at September 30, 2001 to .31% at September 30, 2002, primarily due to two large credits totaling $578,000. Loans past due ninety days and over decreased slightly, from $1,344,389 at September 30, 2001 1 to $1,275,233 at September 30, 2002. Other real estate owned decreased $44,134 for the same period. The ALL represented 298% of nonperforming assets as of September 30, 2002 compared to 497% as of September 30, 2001. MidSouth's leverage ratio was 8.24% at September 30, 2002, up from 8.09% at September 30, 2001. Return on average common equity for the third quarter of 2002 was 18.92% compared to 14.69% for the third quarter of 2001. Return on average assets was 1.31% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 compared to .90% for the quarter ended September 30, 2001. EARNINGS ANALYSIS Net Interest Income Average earning assets increased $27.6 million from $317.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 to $345.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The mix of earning assets remained relatively constant, with 67% of average earning assets in loans and 33% in investments and federal funds sold. The average yield on loans decreased 112 basis points, from 9.71% to 8.59% in quarterly comparison. The taxable- equivalent yield on investments declined 82 basis points, from 6.14% in September 2001 to 5.32% in September 2002. Decreases in the prime lending rate and market competition for quality credits lowered commercial and real estate loan yields by 107 basis points in quarterly comparison. The average volume of the commercial and real estate portfolio grew 10% or $17.3 million in quarterly comparison, from $167.0 million for the quarter ending September 30, 2001 to $184.3 million for the quarter ending September 30, 2002. Quarterly comparison of the consumer loan portfolio showed little change in yield and a $2.4 million increase in average volume from $44.2 million for the quarter ending September 30, 2001 to $ 46.6 million for the quarter ending September 30, 2002. Average investment volume increased by $6.2 million from $99.0 million at September 30, 2001 to $105.2 million at September 30, 2002. The volume of federal funds sold increased $1.8 million in quarterly comparison. Lower yields in both loans and investments decreased the taxable- equivalent yield on quarterly average earning assets 104 basis points, from 8.45% for the third quarter of 2001 to 7.41% for the third quarter of 2002. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $21.9 million in quarterly comparison, from $236.0 million for the quarter ending September 30, 2001 to $257.9 million for the quarter ending September 30, 2002, primarily in NOW and money market deposits. Average non-interest bearing deposits increased $3.9 million in quarterly comparison and remained stable at 24% of average total deposits. The rate paid on interest-bearing deposits decreased 166 basis points for the same period, from 3.91% to 2.25%. 2 Included in interest-bearing liabilities is $7,000,000 in trust preferred securities issued in February 2001. The interest rate on the trust preferred securities is 10.20% with interest payable semi-annually. The average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 167 basis points, from 4.12% for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 to 2.45% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002. The net effect of changes in the volume, mix of average earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities resulted in a 24 basis point improvement in the net taxable-equivalent yield on average earning assets, from 5.25% for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 to 5.49% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002. A review of the changes in the volume and yields of average earning assets and interest- bearing liabilities between the two nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2002 reflected results similar to the quarterly comparison. The net taxable- equivalent yield on average earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased 11 basis points from 5.30% at September 30, 2001 to 5.41% at September 30, 2002. Non-interest Income MidSouth's primary source of non-interest income, service charges on deposit accounts, increased $369,428 or 44% for the three months and $963,342 or 39% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the same periods for 2001. The increases were due primarily to a higher volume of transactions on deposit accounts, which resulted in increased insufficient funds fees. Other non-interest income, net of gains on sales of investment securities, increased $215,845 in quarterly comparison and $280,568 in year-to-date comparison, primarily due to increased mortgage origination fee income. Non-interest Expense Non-interest expense increased $477,848 for the three months and $1,227,690 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001. Increases were recorded primarily in the categories of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense and professional fees. Salaries and employee benefits increased primarily due to additional staff and an increase in the cost of group health insurance. The number of full-time equivalent ("FTE") employees increased from 199 in September 2001 to 203 in September 2002. Staff additions over the past twelve months included two senior level positions in credit administration and compliance and two internal auditors. The staff additions enhanced the risk management and loan administration functions. Occupancy expense increased in the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same period of 2001 due to increases in lease expense, depreciation and maintenance expenses on computer hardware and software and property taxes. 3 The increase in professional fees resulted primarily from consulting fees associated with a process and workflow review of MidSouth's retail, lending and technology areas. BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS MidSouth ended the third quarter of 2002 with consolidated assets of $382,269,838, an increase of $18.5 million from the $363,779,863 reported for December 31, 2001. Deposits increased over the nine months ended September 30, 2002 by $12.0 million, from $310,803,760 at December 31, 2001 to $342,621,887 primarily due to the $12.2 million in deposits acquired through the IberiaBank Morgan City branch purchase on June 21, 2002. Non- interest bearing deposits decreased $6.5 million primarily due to balance fluctuations within commercial deposit accounts. Interest-bearing deposits increased $18.5 million, primarily in NOW and money market accounts. The loan portfolio grew $20.7 million in the first nine months of 2002, $5.4 million of which was acquired through the branch purchase. Securities available-for-sale increased by $10.7 million, from $75.8 million at December 31, 2001 to $86.5 million at June 30, 2002. The increase reflects purchases of $36.3 million offset by sales, maturities and principal paydowns of $26.6 million. Net unrealized gains in the securities available-for-sale portfolio, net of tax effect, were $1,404,200 at September 30, 2002, compared to a net unrealized gain of $469,962 at December 31, 2001. These amounts result from interest rate fluctuations and do not represent permanent adjustment of value. Moreover, classification of securities as available-for-sale does not necessarily indicate that the securities will be sold prior to maturity. Capital As of September 30, 2002, MidSouth's leverage ratio was 8.24% as compared to 7.80% at December 31, 2001. Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets was 12.09% and total capital to risk-weighted assets was 13.27% at the end of the third quarter of 2002. At year-end 2001, Tier 1 capital to risk- weighted assets was 11.68% and total capital to risk- weighted assets was 12.72%. Included in the capital ratio calculations is $7 million in Trust Preferred Securities issued in February of 2001. For regulatory purposes, these funds qualify as Tier 1 capital. For financial reporting purposes, these funds are included as a liability under generally accepted accounting principles. 4 Nonperforming Assets and Past Due Loans Table 1 summarizes MidSouth's nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans and nonperforming assets.

Three commercial loans were added to nonperforming loans in December 2001 and specific allocations were made within the ALL to allow for possible losses on the credits. Loans past due 90 days or more increased in September 2002 to $1,275,233 from $999,538 in December 2001 and decreased from $1,344,389 as of September 30, 2001. Specific reserves have been established in the ALL to cover probable losses on nonperforming assets. The ALL is analyzed quarterly and additional reserves, if needed, are allocated at that time. Management believes that the $3,010,394 in the allowance as of September 30, 2002 is sufficient to cover probable losses in nonperforming assets and in the loan portfolio. Loans classified for regulatory purposes but not included in Table 1 do not represent material credits about which management has serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with loan repayment terms. 6 Item 4. Controls and Procedures MidSouth's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date").
