Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors
Peoples Financial Corporation
Biloxi, Mississippi
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of Peoples Financial Corporation as of June 30, 2004, June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2003, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements.

Item 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following presents Management’s discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Peoples Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. These comments highlight the significant events and should be considered in combination with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report on Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Information
Congress passed the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 in an effort to encourage corporations to provide information about a company’s anticipated future financial performance. This act provides a safe harbor for such disclosure which protects the companies from unwarranted litigation if actual results are different from management expectations. This report contains forward-looking statements and reflects industry conditions, company performance and financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties which could cause the Company’s actual results and experience to differ from the anticipated results and expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements.
Overview
During the first six months of 2004, net income was $3,058,000, as compared with $2,126,000 for the first six months of 2003. The results for 2004 include a gain of $838,000, net of taxes, from the sale of two parcels of bank premises. Managing the interest margin in its trade area’s extremely competitive environment continues to be a priority for the Company. A strong increase in the loan volume of 7.5% at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003, is the result of the improvement of the local economy.
The following schedule compares financial highlights for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003:
| For the six months ended June 30, | 2004 | 2003 | ||||||
| Net income per share | $ | 0.55 | $ | 0.38 | ||||
| Book value per share | $ | 14.85 | $ | 15.04 | ||||
| Return on average total assets | 1.04 | % | .74 | % | ||||
| Return on average shareholders’ equity | 7.37 | % | 5.14 | % | ||||
| Allowance for loan losses as a % of loans, net of unearned discount | 2.09 | % | 2.19 | % | ||||

Financial Condition
Held to Maturity Securities
Held to maturity securities decreased $7,690,000 at June 30, 2004, compared with June 30, 2003, as a result of the management of the Company’s liquidity position. Funds available from the maturity of these securities were generally used to fund the increase in the loan portfolio . Gross unrealized gains for held to maturity securities were $98,000 and $320,000 at June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Gross unrealized losses were $2,000 at June 30, 2004, and there were no gross unrealized losses for held to maturity securities at June 30, 2003. The following schedule reflects the mix of the held to maturity investment portfolio at June 30, 2004 and 2003:

Loans
Loans increased $22,353,000 at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003. During the fourth quarter of 2003 and continuing into the first half of 2004, the local economy has stabilized which has resulted in increased loan demand. The Company expects that this demand will continue in the remaining quarters of 2004.
Other Real Estate
Other real estate decreased $1,085,000 at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003, primarily due to sales of ORE inventory during the twelve months ended June 30, 2004.
Other Assets
Other assets increased $5,957,000 at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003, due to an increase in deferred taxes of $2,700,000 from the unrealized loss on available for sale securities and a receivable of $2,800,000 relating to the sale of bank premises.
Deposits
Total deposits increased $6,349,000 at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003. Significant increases or decreases in total deposits and/or significant fluctuations among the different types of deposits from quarter to quarter are anticipated by Management as customers in the casino industry and county and municipal areas reallocate their resources periodically. As discussed above, the Company has managed its funds including planning the timing and classification of investment maturities and using other funding sources and their maturity so as to achieve appropriate liquidity. Specifically, the Company obtained brokered deposits of $30,000,000 in 2000. At June 30, 2003, brokered deposits amounted to $5,000,000. These deposits matured on July 18, 2003. Since that time, the Company has not obtained any further brokered deposits, and does not have any current plans to do so.
Other Liabilities
Other liabilities increased $826,000 at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily due to the impact of increasing health care costs on the liability for post-retirement health benefits.
Borrowings from Federal Home Loan Bank
The Company acquired funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank in the management of its liquidity position.
Notes Payable
Notes payable decreased at June 30, 2004, as compared with June 30, 2003, as a result of the maturity and/or early payoff of Company debt.

Shareholders’ Equity and Capital Adequacy
Strength, security and stability have been the hallmark of the Company since its founding in 1985 and of its bank subsidiary since its founding in 1896. A strong capital foundation is fundamental to the continuing prosperity of the Company and the security of its customers and shareholders. One measure of capital adequacy is the primary capital ratio which was 15.23% at June 30, 2004, as compared with 15.69% at June 30, 2003. These ratios are well above the regulatory minimum of 6.00%. Management continues to emphasize the importance of maintaining the appropriate capital levels of the Company.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the amount by which interest income on loans, investments and other interest earning assets exceeds interest expense on deposits and other borrowed funds, is the single largest component of the Company’s income. Management’s objective is to provide the largest possible amount of income while balancing interest rate, credit, liquidity and capital risk. The following schedule summarizes net interest earnings and net yield on interest earning assets:
Net Interest Earnings and Net Yield on Interest Earning Assets
| Six Months Ended June 30, (In | ||||||||
| thousands, except percentages) | 2004 | 2003 | ||||||
| Total interest income (1) | $ | 11,839 | $ | 12,833 | ||||
| Total interest expense | 2,374 | 3,309 | ||||||
| Net interest earnings | $ | 9,465 | $ | 9,524 | ||||
| Net yield on interest earning assets | 3.68 | % | 3.78 | % | ||||
(1) All interest earned is reported on a taxable equivalent basis using a tax rate of 34% in 2004 and 2003.
The schedule on page 17 provides an analysis of the change in total interest income and total interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Changes in interest income are generally attributable to changes in interest rates related to interest-earning assets, particularly loans. Changes in interest expense, while impacted by changes in volume related to interest-bearing liabilities, particularly brokered time deposits, were heavily impacted by the decrease in the cost of funds during these time periods.

Provision for Loan Losses
Management continuously monitors the Company’s relationships with its loan customers, especially those in concentrated industries such as gaming and hotel/motel, and their direct and indirect impact on its operations. A thorough analysis of current economic conditions and the quality of the loan portfolio are conducted on a quarterly basis. These analyses are utilized in the computation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Based on these analyses, the Company provided $363,000 for loan losses during the first six months of 2004, primarily due to the increase in loans during the same period. The Company expects to provide for its loan loss provision on a monthly basis throughout the remaining quarters of 2004 at a similar level, as deemed necessary, based on the analysis.
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $434,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2003, primarily due to the decrease in fee income from off-site ATMs no longer under contract by the Company.
Gain on Sale of Bank Premises
The Company realized a gain of $1,271,000 for the six months of 2004 from the sale of bank premises.
Equipment Rentals, Depreciation and Maintenance
Equipment rentals, depreciation and maintenance decreased $246,000 for the first six months of 2004 as compared with the first six months of 2003. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in depreciation on computer software and hardware acquired in 1998 as a part of the Company’s conversion to the Jack Henry system and the decrease in depreciation due to the sale of bank premises in 2004.
Other Expense
Other expense decreased $491,000 for the first six months of 2004 as compared with the first six months of 2003 as a result of a decrease in expense for off-site ATMs no longer under contract by the Company.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity represents the Company’s ability to adequately provide funds to satisfy demands from depositors, borrowers and other commitments by either converting assets to cash or accessing new or existing sources of funds. Management monitors these funds requirements in such a manner as to satisfy these demands and provide the maximum earnings on its earning assets. Deposits, payments of principal and interest on loans, proceeds from maturities of investment securities and earnings on investment securities are the principal sources of funds for the Company. As discussed previously, the Company has utilized non-traditional sources of funds including brokered certificates and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank. These additional sources have allowed the Company to satisfy its liquidity needs. The Company will continue to utilize these sources of funds throughout 2004, as necessary.
