FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION The Accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. All normal, recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements, have been included. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and note disclosures for ISB Financial Corporation (the "Company") previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-k for the year ended December 31, 1997. BUSINESS The Company's principal business is conducted through it's wholly owned subsidiary, IBERIABANK (the "Bank"), which conducts business from its main office located in New Iberia, Louisiana and 43 full-service branch offices located in the cities of New Iberia, Lafayette, Scott, Carencro, St. Martinville, Crowley, Rayne, Kaplan, Jeanerette, Franklin, Morgan City, Abbeville, Ruston, Monroe, West Monroe, Gretna, Marrero, River Ridge, Metairie, New Orleans and Kenner, Louisiana. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insures the Bank's deposits to the maximum extent permitted by law. The Bank is a Louisiana chartered commercial bank. The Bank is subject to examination and regulation by the Office of Financial Institutions of the State of Louisiana, which is the Bank's chartering authority and primary regulator. The Bank is also subject to regulation by the FDIC and to certain reserve requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB"). The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas ("FHLB"). PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the Bank's wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The branches in Marrero, River Ridge, Metairie, New Orleans, Gretna and Kenner were branches of Jefferson Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that was merged into IBERIABANK on September 14, 1997. The Company acquired Jefferson Bank in October of 1996. 7 8 2.

EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share were based on 6,299,433 weighted average shares outstanding during the three month period ended September 30, 1998. Diluted earnings per share were based on 6,493,199 weighted average shares outstanding during the three month period ended September 30, 1998. For the three months ended September 30, 1998, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes (a) the weighted average unreleased shares owned by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") of 350,884; (b) the weighted average shares owned by the Management Recognition Plan and Trust of 248,397 and (c) the weighted average shares purchased in Treasury Stock of 481,957. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, basic earnings per share were based on 6,274,495 weighted average shares outstanding and diluted earnings per share were based on 6,507,240 weighted average shares outstanding. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes (a) the weighted average unreleased shares owned by the ESOP of 367,320; (b) the weighted average shares owned by the 8 9 Management Recognition Plan and Trust of 260,381 and (c) the weighted average shares purchased in Treasury Stock of 478,102. 4. BRANCH OFFICE ACQUISITION After the close of business on September 10, 1998, the Bank acquired 17 full service branch offices from the former First Commerce Corporation. These 17 branch offices continue to be operated as offices of IBERIABANK. The Bank paid $29.2 million of cash as deposit premium and paid book value for $126.6 million of loans, $5.7 million of premises and equipment and $5.5 million of other assets. The Bank received $455.3 million of cash as the Bank assumed $452.6 million of deposits and $2.7 million of other liabilities. The deposit premium and other costs incurred in the acquisition resulted in $30.6 million of goodwill and acquisition intangibles, which is to be amortized over 15 years using the straight-line method. The revenues and expenses of the acquired 17 branch offices are included in these consolidated financial statements only from the date of the acquisition forward. 9 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION At September 30, 1998, the consolidated assets of the Company totaled $1.4 billion million, an increase of $433.8 million, or 45.8%, from December 31, 1997. Loans receivable, net, increased by $138.1 million, or 20.9%, to $797.3 million at September 30, 1998, compared to $659.2 million at December 31, 1997. Such increases were the result of $126.6 million of loans acquired in the branch acquisition and $11.5 of net, after repayments, of loan originations during the first nine months of 1998. This increase resulted in a $20.2 million, or 34.8%, increase in commercial business loans, a $44.7 million, or 92.5%, increase in commercial real estate loans, a $38.8 million, or 113.5% increase in home equity loans, a $15.9 million, or 168.6% increase in automobile loans, a $20.5 million, or 22.6% increase in indirect automobile loans and a $20.4 million, or 276.8%, increase in other consumer loans. Such increases were partially offset by a $18.0 million, or 4.8%, decrease in single-family residential loans. The changes in the loan portfolio reflect management's efforts to increase the originations of commercial real estate, commercial business, indirect automobile loans and consumer loans. Such loans generally are considered to involve more risk than 1 - - 4 family residential mortgage loans, but generally have higher yields. The Company's loan to deposit ratio at September 30, 1998 was 66.2% compared to 84.7% at December 31 1997. For additional information on loans, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The increase in loans receivable was funded primarily by the cash received in the branch acquisition. Interest bearing deposits at other institutions increased $87.6 million, or 270.7%, to $119.9 million at September 30, 1998, compared to $32.3 million at December 31, 1997. Such increase was primarily the result of the cash received in the branch acquisition. The Company's investment securities available for sale increased $25.6 million, or 34.0%, to $101.1 million at September 30, 1998, compared to $75.5 million at December 31, 1997. Such increase was the result of the purchase of $56.3 million of investment securities available for sale, which was partially offset by the maturity or redemption of $30.3 million of investment securities available for sale and by $23,000 of amortization of premium on such securities. Mortgage-backed securities increased $130.6 million, or 113.4%, to $245.8 million at September 30, 1998, compared to $115.1 million at December 31, 1997. Such increase was the result of $162.1 million of purchases of mortgage-backed securities, which was partially offset by $31.5 million of repayments and maturities of such mortgage-backed securities. Premises and equipment increased $7.6 million, or 39.2%, to $26.8 million at September 30, 1998, compared to $19.3 million at December 31, 1997. Such increase was primarily the result of $5.7 million of premises and equipment purchased in the branch acquisition and the purchase of an in-house data processing system. Such increases were partially offset by $1.3 million of depreciation on premises and equipment. Deposits increased $425.7 million, or 54.7%, to $1.2 billion at September 30, 1998, compared to $778.7 million at December 31, 1997. Such increase was due to $452.6 million of deposits acquired in the branch acquisition, which was partially offset by $26.9 million of net deposit withdrawals. Advances from the FHLB of Dallas decreased $810,000, or 1.7% to $45.9 million at September 30, 1998, compared to $46.7 million at December 31, 1997. The decrease in advances was attributable to scheduled payments made. The advances are amortizing, fixed-rate and long term and were used to fund originations of fixed-rate, long term single-family residential mortgage loans. 10 11 Total stockholders' equity increased $5.1 million, or 4.4%, to $120.7 million at September 30, 1998. The increase was the result of the Company's net income of $6.5 million, $1.3 million of common stock released by the ESOP, $327,000 of common stock earned by participants of the Recognition and Retention Plan, $198,000, after deferred taxes, increase in accumulated other comprehensive income and $78,000 of common stock issued out of treasury, all of which was partially offset by the declaration of cash dividends on common stock of $2.8 million. 11 12 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company reported net income of $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $1.3 million earned during the three months ended September 30, 1997. The Company's net interest income increased $1.8 million, provision for loan losses decreased $96,000 and total noninterest income increased $283,000 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to the third quarter of 1997. Such increases were partially offset by a $822,000 increase in noninterest expense and a $472,000 increase in income tax expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company earned $6.5 million compared to $4.8 million for the same period of 1997. The Company's net interest income increased $4.0 million and total noninterest income increased $1.1million during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to the first nine months of 1997. Such increases were partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in noninterest expense and a $861,000 increase in income tax expense when comparing the first nine months of 1998 to the same period of 1997. 12 13 AVERAGE BALANCES, NET INTEREST INCOME AND YIELDS EARNED AND RATES PAID The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information regarding (i) the total dollar amount of interest income of the Bank from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields (ii) the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average rate; (iii) net interest income; (iv) interest rate spread; and (v) net interest margin.

(1) Annualized. 13 14 NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income increased $1.8 million, or 22.7%, to $9.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $8.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 1997. The increase was due to a $2.3 million, or 13.1% increase in interest income, which was partially offset by a $438,000, or 4.7%, increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income was the result of a 9 basis point (100 basis points being equal to 1%) increase in the yield earned on interest-earning assets, together with a $106.0 million, or 12.0%, increase in the average balance on interest-earning assets. The increase in interest expense was the result of a $75.2 million, or 9.5%, increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a 20 basis point decrease in the cost thereof. The Company's interest rate spread (the difference between the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities) and net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets) amounted to 3.42% and 4.00%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to 3.13% and 3.65%, respectively, for the comparable period in 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, net interest income increased $4.0 million, or 16.6%, to $28.1 million, compared to $24.1 million for the first nine months of 1997. The increase was due to a $3.6 million, or 7.1%, increase in interest income, together with a $379,000, or 1.4%, decrease in interest expense. The increase in interest income was the result of a $35.2 million, or 4.0%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, together with a 23 basis point increase in the yield earned on interest-earning assets. The decrease in interest expense was the result of a 12 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a $9.7 million, or 1.2% increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's interest rate spread and net interest margin amounted to 3.50% and 4.10%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to 3.15% and 3.66%, respectively, for the comparable period in 1997. INTEREST INCOME The Company's total interest income was $19.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $17.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The reason for the $2.3 million, or 13.1%, increase in interest income was a $2.0 million, or 15.3%, increase in interest income from loans, a $413,000, or 19.6%, increase in interest on mortgage-backed securities and a $382,000, or 110.7%, increase in interest on deposits held at other institutions, which was partially offset by a $549,000, or 32.9%, decrease in interest and dividends on investment securities. The increase in interest income from loans was the result of a $79.3 million, or 12.6%, increase in the average balance of loans, together with a 20 basis point increase in the yield earned thereon. The increase in yield on total loans was caused in part by the growth of commercial business and consumer and other loans. The increase in interest income from mortgage-backed securities was the result of a $26.0 million, or 19.8%, increase in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities, which was partially offset by a one basis point decrease in the yield earned thereon. The increase in interest from deposits at other institutions was the result of a $40.0 million, or 200.1%, increase in the average balance of deposits at other institutions, which was partially offset by a 205 basis point decrease in the yield earned thereon. The decrease in interest and dividends on investment securities was the result of a $39.2 million, or 36.6%, decrease in the average balance of investment securities, which was partially offset by a 36 basis point increase in the yield earned thereon. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, total interest income was $54.8 million compared to $51.2 million for the same period in 1997. The reasons for the $3.6 million, or 7.1%, increase in interest income were a $5.5 million, or 14.3%, increase in interest income from loans and a $249,000, or 18.2%, increase in interest on deposits, which was partially offset by a $643,000, or 9.8%, decrease in interest and dividends from investment securities and a $1.5 million, or 30.6%, decrease in interest from mortgage-backed securities. The increase in interest from loans was the result of a $77.4 million, or 12.8%, increase in the average balance of loans, together with a 12 basis point increase in the yield earned thereon. The increase in interest on deposits at other institutions was the result of a 14 15 $10.3 million, or 36.6%, increase in the average balance of deposits at other institutions, which was partially offset by a 87 basis point decrease in the yield earned thereon. The decrease in interest and dividends on investment securities was the result of a $37.1 million, or 34.8%, decrease in the average balance of investment securities, which was partially offset by a 39 basis point increase in the yield earned thereon. The decrease in interest from mortgage-backed securities was the result of a $15.5 million, or 11.2%, decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities, which was partially offset by a 10 basis point increase in the yield earned thereon. INTEREST EXPENSE The Company's total interest expense was $9.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $9.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The reasons for the $438,000, or 4.7%, increase in interest expense was a $69,000, or .8%, increase in interest expense on deposits due to a $49.6 million, or 6.74%, increase in interest-bearing deposits, which was partially offset by a 25 basis point decrease in the cost of such deposits and a $369,000, or 47.6%, increase in interest expense on FHLB advances due to a $25.6 million, or 54.2%, increase in the average balance of FHLB advances, which was partially offset by a 29 basis point decrease in the cost of such advances.. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the company's total interest expense was $26.7 million, compared to $27.0 million for the same period in 1997. The reasons for the $379,000, or 1.4%, decrease in interest expense was a $715,000, or 2.9%, decrease in interest expense on deposits due to a 14 basis point decrease in the cost of deposits, which was partially offset by a $1.7 million, or .2%, increase in the average balance of deposits, which was partially offset by a $336,000, or 14.5%, increase in interest on FHLB advances due to a $7.9 million, or 16.7%, increase in the average balance of FHLB advances, which was partially offset by 13 basis point decrease in the cost thereof. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES The provision for loan losses was $206,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to $302,000 for the same period in 1997. As of September 30, 1998, the ratio of the Company's allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 303.0%, compared to 232.6% at December 31, 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the provision for loan losses was $691,000 as compared to $706,000 for the first nine months of 1997. NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income increased $283,000, or 14.9%, in the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $2.2 million, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. Such increase was due primarily to a $101,000, or 10.5%, increase in service charges on deposit accounts and a $220,000, or 33.0%, increase in other income, which was partially offset by a $38,000, or 14.0%, decrease in late charges and other fees on loans. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts was due primarily to the increased number of accounts that are subject to such service charges. The increase in other income was due primarily to increased gains on the sale of newly originated mortgage loans in the secondary market. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, noninterest income increased $1.1 million, or 23.2%, to $5.8 million, compared to $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Such increase was due to a $440,000, or 17.8% increase in service charges on deposit accounts, a $59,000, or 8.4%, increase in late charges and other fees on loans and a $598,000, or 38.5%, increase in other income. 15 16 NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense increased $822,000, or 11.1%, in the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $8.2 million, compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. Such increase was due primarily to a $321,000, or 8.4%, increase in salaries and employee benefits resulting from the increased staff added in the last half of 1997 as the Bank transitioned from a savings bank to a commercial bank and the new employees added as a result of the branch purchase in September of 1998, a $84,000, or 21.9%, increase in depreciation expense, a $80,000, or 36.7%, increase in computer expense, a $103,000, or 64.0%, increase in marketing and advertising expense to advertise the branch acquisition and make the Bank more visible in its marketplace, a $87,000, or 22.6%, increase in the amortization of goodwill and other acquired intangibles due to the branch acquisition and a $177,000, or 11.9%, increase in other expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, noninterest expense increased $2.6 million, or 13.0%, to $22.5 million compared to $19.9 million for the same period in 1997. Such increase was primarily due to a $1.2 million, or 11.5%, increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $336,000, or 35.5%, increase in depreciation expense, a $131,000, or 9.7%, increase in occupancy expense, a $335,000, or 86.7%, increase in marketing and advertising expense and a $546,000, or 13.7%, increase in other expenses. INCOME TAX EXPENSE Income tax expense increased $472,000, or 46.4%, in the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $1.5 million, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in income tax expense was due primarily to the increase in income before income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, income tax expense increased $861,000, or 25.3%, to $4.3 million, compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 1997. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan and mortgage-backed security prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Bank has been able to generate sufficient cash through its deposits as well as borrowings. At September 30, 1998, the Company had $45.9 million in outstanding advances from the FHLB of Dallas. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as over-night deposits. On a longer-term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of investing in various lending products. The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments and to pay maturing savings certificates and saving withdrawals, fund loan commitments and maintain a portfolio of mortgage-backed and investment securities. At September 30, 1998, the total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $28.9 million. At the same time, commitments under unused lines of credit, including credit card lines, amounted to $103.4 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in twelve months or less at September 30, 1998 totaled $136.4 million. Based on past experience 16 17 management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Company. The Company anticipates it will continue to have sufficient funds to meet its liquidity requirements. At September 30, 1998, the Company and its subsidiary had regulatory capital, which was well in excess of regulatory requirements. The current requirements and the Company's actual levels as of September 30, 1998 are detailed below (dollars in thousands): Required Capital Actual Capital -------------------- -------------------- Amount Percent Amount Percent ------ ------- ------ ------- Tier 1 Leverage $ 41,450 3.00% $ 74,806 5.41 % Tier 1 Risk-Based $ 26,071 4.00% $ 74,806 11.48 % Total Risk-Based $ 52,143 8.00% $ 81,979 12.58 % YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Many existing computer programs use only two digits to identify a year in the date field. These programs were designed and developed without considering the impact of the upcoming change in the century. Timely and accurate data processing is essential to any financial institution. The Company formed a task force in 1997 to assess the impact of the Year 2000 problem and to insure compliance for all critical and ancillary systems utilized by the Company. The Company has converted to a new computer vendor for data processing software for its core applications that is Year 2000 compliant. Many of the costs associated with determining compliance with and correcting Year 2000 issues for ancillary computer programs is expected to come from a reassignment of existing internal resources and is not expected to involve material additional costs. EFFECTS OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments imbedded in other contracts. It requires than an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivative (that is, gains and losses) depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company currently has no derivatives and does not have any hedging activities. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on financial position and results of operations. 17 18 ITEM 3.
