              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements


Basis of Presentation

Texarkana First Financial Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in
March 1995 under Texas law for the purpose of acquiring all of the capital
stock issued by First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Texarkana (the
"Association") in connection with the Association's conversion from a
federally chartered mutual savings and loan association to a stock savings and
loan association (the "Conversion").  The Conversion was consummated on July
7, 1995 and, as a result, the Company became a unitary savings and loan
holding company for the Association.  Prior to the Conversion, the Company had
no material assets or liabilities and engaged in no business activity.
Subsequent to the acquisition of the Association, the Company has engaged in
no significant activity other than holding the stock of the Association and
engaging in certain passive investment activities.

On May 15, 2000, the Company and First United Bancshares, Inc., an Arkansas
corporation ("First United"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization ("Reorganization Agreement").  Under the terms of the
Reorganization Agreement, First United will acquire all of the outstanding
stock and existing options of the Company for $37.5 million in cash, or
$23.35208 per share.  The proposed transaction is expected to close in the
third quarter of 2000.  Also on May 15, 2000, the Company issued a press
release announcing the transaction.  On May 25, 2000, the Company filed a Form
8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report the Company's
Reorganization Agreement with First United.  The Form 8-K included, as
exhibits, a copy of the Reorganization Agreement and a copy of the Company's
related press release.

On August 11, 2000, the Company mailed a Proxy Statement and Notice of Special
Meeting of Shareholders to be held on September 13, 2000 to consider and vote
upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Company's Reorganization Agreement
with First United.  The proxy statement is available free of charge both on
the SEC's web site (www.sec.gov) and from the Company's corporate secretary.

On April 16, 2000, First United entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
with BancorpSouth, Inc., a Mississippi corporation and registered bank holding
company.  In the proposed transaction ("BancorpSouth Transaction"), First
United is to merge with and into BancorpSouth and First United common stock is
to be converted into shares of BancorpSouth common stock at an exchange ratio
of 1.125 shares of BancorpSouth common stock per share of First United common
stock.  If the BancorpSouth Transaction closes before the Company's merger
with First United, BancorpSouth will succeed First United as a party to the
Company's proposed merger with First United and will assume the rights,
interests and obligations of First United.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company
have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  However,
such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
a fair statement of results for the interim periods.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year
ending September 30, 2000.  Earnings for the full fiscal year will be impacted
by various economic conditions as well as merger related charges for the
pending acquisition of the company by First United.  The unaudited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the
year ended September 30, 1999, contained in the Company's annual report to
stockholders.


Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average
number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Stock options outstanding are
included in the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share.  Shares
acquired by the ESOP are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
Position 93-6 and are not included in the weighted-average shares outstanding
until the shares are committed to be released for allocation to ESOP
participants.

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


General

Management's discussion and analysis of results of operations is intended to
assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company.  The Company's results of operations depend primarily on its net
interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-
earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.  The
Company's results of operations also are affected by the provision for loan
losses, the level of its noninterest income and expenses, and income tax
expense.


Forward-Looking Information

In addition to discussing historical information, certain matters included in
or incorporated into this report relate to the financial condition, results of
operations and business of the Company which are not historical facts, but
which are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  When used herein, the words
"anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "will" and similar expressions
are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.  The forward-
looking statements in this report involve known and unknown risks and
uncertainties and reflect what we currently anticipate will happen in each
case.  What actually happens could differ materially from what we currently
anticipate will happen due to a variety of factors, including, among others,
(i) increased competitive pressures among financial services companies; (ii)
changes in the interest rate environment; (iii) general economic conditions,
internationally, nationally, in Arkansas, in Texas or in our local market
area.; and (iv) legislation or regulatory requirements or changes adversely
affecting the business of the Company.  Readers should not place undue
expectations on any "forward-looking statements."  We are not promising to
make any public announcement when we consider "forward-looking statements" in
this document are no longer accurate, whether as a result of new information,
what actually happens in the future or for any other reason.


Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk

The objective of asset/liability management is to maximize net interest margin
within an acceptable level of interest rate risk.

Net interest income is the primary component of net income and interest rate
risk is a significant exposure.  Interest rate risk can be defined as the
amount of forecasted net interest income that may be gained or lost due to
favorable or unfavorable movements in interest rates.

                                     Page 7
<PAGE>
In order to minimize the potential for adverse effects of material and
prolonged changes in interest rates on the Company's results of operations,
management has implemented and continues to monitor asset and liability
policies to better match the maturities and repricing terms of rate-sensitive
assets and rate-sensitive liabilities.  Management also monitors and
evaluates, on a quarterly basis, the potential impact of interest rate changes
upon the Company's net portfolio value and net interest income.

The ability to maximize net interest income is largely dependent upon the
achievement of a positive interest rate margin that can be sustained during
fluctuations in prevailing interest rates.  Interest rate sensitivity is a
measure of the difference between amounts of rate-sensitive assets and rate-
sensitive liabilities which either reprice or mature within a given period of
time.  The difference, or the interest rate repricing "gap", provides an
indication of the extent to which an institution's interest rate margin will
be affected by changes in interest rates.  A gap is considered positive when
the amount of rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of rate-sensitive
liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of rate-sensitive
liabilities exceeds the amount of rate-sensitive assets.  During a period of
rising interest rates, a negative gap would cause a decrease in net interest
income, while a positive gap would cause an increase in net interest income.
During a period of declining interest rates, a negative gap would cause an
increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would cause a decrease
in net interest income.

At June 30, 2000, the estimated one-year gap was a negative 89.2% and the
ratio of rate-sensitive assets to rate-sensitive liabilities maturing or
repricing within one year was 52.9%.

At June 30, 2000, assuming instantaneous interest rate changes sustained for a
twelve-month period, the following table presents the estimated percent of
change in the net portfolio value and net interest income for various changes
in interest rates (100 basis points equals 1%).  Estimates are based upon
numerous assumptions.  Actual sensitivity to interest rate changes could vary
significantly if actual experience differs from assumptions used in making the
calculations.  Net portfolio value is the difference between incoming and
outgoing discounted cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet
contracts, if any.

Changes in Financial Condition

General
The Company's assets increased $14.9 million (7.4%) to $216.0 million at June
30, 2000 from $201.1 million at September 30, 1999.  The increase was due
primarily to increases of $15.3 million (9.5%) in loans receivable and $2.5
million (80.4%) in cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by a decrease
of $4.1 million (12.5%) in investments.  The Company's total liabilities
increased $13.2 million (7.6%) due primarily to increases of $10.3 million
(58.6%) in borrowed funds and 3.6 million (2.3%) in deposits, partially offset
by a decrease of $.4 million (18.7%) in borrowers' escrow balances (property
tax payments are made in the first two quarters of the fiscal year).

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and federal funds sold increased $2.5 million (80.4%) to $5.7 million at
June 30, 2000 from $3.2 million at September 30, 1999.  The increase was due
primarily to an increase in interest-bearing deposits in other banks.

Investments
Investments decreased $4.1 million (12.5%) to $29.0 million at June 30, 2000
from $33.1 million at September 30, 1999.  Proceeds from maturing investments
were utilized to fund increases in loans.

Loans Receivable
Loans receivable, net of unearned income, increased $15.3 million (9.5%) to
$176.6 million at June 30, 2000 from $161.2 million at September 30, 1999.
The increase in loans was the result of an increase of $11.4 million (8.0%) in
real estate loans and an increase of $3.9 million (22.2%) in commercial and
consumer loans.  The increase was due to additional loan demand, including
home equity loans, and the retention of fixed-rate mortgage loans.  In the
nine months ended June 30, 2000, $51.8 million of loans were originated.
$23.4 million of single-family mortgage loans were originated and $2.2 million
were sold.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets decreased $62,000 to $1.0 million (.47% of total assets)
at June 30, 2000 compared to $1.1 million (.53% of total assets) at September
30, 1999.  At June 30, 2000, nonperforming loans were $836,000 (.47% of total
loans) compared to $1.1 million (.66% of total loans) at September 30, 1999.
At June 30, 2000, the Company had $171,000 of foreclosed real estate.  At June
30, 2000, the allowance for loan losses was $982,000 (.56% of total loans and
117.46% of nonperforming loans) compared to $995,000 (.62% of total loans and
93.08% of nonperforming loans) at September 30, 1999.  Net charge-offs were
$13,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000.

Deposits
Deposits increased $3.6 million (2.3%) to $157.6 million at June 30, 2000 from
$154.0 million at September 30, 1999.  The increase in deposits was primarily
in certificates of deposit.

Borrowed Funds
Borrowings increased $10.3 million (58.6%) to $27.8 million at June 30, 2000
from $17.5 million at September 30, 1999.  Additional borrowings, from the
FHLB of Dallas, were primarily utilized to fund increases in loans.

Stockholders' Equity
Stockholders' equity increased $1.7 million (6.3%) to $28.1 million at June
30, 2000 from $26.4 million at September 30, 1999, primarily the result of
retained earnings.  The ratio of stockholders' equity to total assets was
13.0% at June 30, 2000 compared to 13.1% at September 30, 1999.



Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Month and Nine Month Periods
Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

General.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period ended
June 30, 1999, net income, earnings per share, return on average equity and
return on average assets were lower.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period ended June
30, 1999, earnings per share was higher while net income, return on average
equity and return on average assets were lower.

For the nine month period ended June 30, 2000, a decrease in average shares
outstanding, resulting from fiscal year 1999 purchases of additional shares of
common stock to be held as treasury shares, contributed to the increase in
earnings per share.

For the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period ended
June 30, 1999, total average earning assets (investments and loans) and total
average interest bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowed funds) were higher
and average rates on earning assets and interest bearing liabilities were
higher.  The yield on total average earning assets was 8.18% and 7.78%; the
rate on total average interest bearing liabilities was 5.30% and 4.77%; the
interest rate spread was 2.88% and 3.02%; and, the net interest margin was
3.63% and 3.66%.

For the three months ended June 30, 2000, net income was $766,000 compared to
$804,000 for the same period ended June 30, 1999.  The decrease of $38,000
(4.7%) in net income was due to increases of $136,000 in net noninterest
expense and $10,000 in income tax expense, partially offset by an increase of
$108,000 in net interest income.

For the three months ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999, basic earnings per

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, net income was $2,359,000 compared to
$2,417,000 for the same period ended June 30, 1999.  The decrease of $58,000
(2.4%) in net income was due to increases of $361,000 in net noninterest
expense and $2,000 in income tax expense, partially offset by an increase of
$305,000 in net interest income.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999, basic earnings per
share was $1.63 and $1.61, respectively (diluted EPS of $1.58 and $1.54,

respectively, return on average equity (ROE) was 11.57% and 11.97%,
respectively, and the operating efficiency ratio was 40.3% and 37.7%,
respectively.

Net Interest Income.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000, net interest income increased
$108,000 (6.2%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was due to
an increase of $469,000 (12.6%) in interest income, partially offset by an
increase of $361,000 (18.4%) in interest expense.  For the third quarter of
fiscal 2000 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the net interest
margin was 3.63% and 3.66%, respectively, and the net interest spread was
2.88% and 3.02%, respectively.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, net interest income increased
$305,000 (5.9%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was due to
an increase of $834,000 (7.5%) in interest income, partially offset by an
increase of $529,000 (8.9%) in interest expense.  For the nine month period of
fiscal 2000 compared to the same period of fiscal 1999, the net interest
margin was 3.63% and 3.64%, respectively, and the net interest spread was
2.90% and 2.96%, respectively.

Interest Income.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000, interest income increased $469,000
(12.6%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was the result of
higher average balances and higher rates.  Average earning assets increased to
$205.5 million from $191.0 million and the average yield increased to 8.18%
from 7.78%.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, interest income increased $834,000
(7.5%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was the result of
higher average balances and higher rates.  Average earning assets increased to
$200.5 million from $188.9 million and the average yield increased to 7.96%
from 7.86%.

Interest Expense.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000, interest expense increased $361,000
(18.4%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was the result of
higher average balances and higher rates.  Average interest bearing
liabilities increased to $176.4 million from $165.1 million and the average
rate increased to 5.30% from 4.77%.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, interest expense increased $529,000
(8.9%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was the result of
higher average balances and higher rates.  Average interest bearing
liabilities increased to $171.6 million from $162.8 million and the average
rate increased to 5.06% from 4.90%.

Provision for Loan Losses.
No provisions were made for loan losses during the nine months ended June 30,
2000.  No charge has been made to provision for loan losses since March 1995.
During this time, asset quality remained favorable with a ratio of
nonperforming loans to total loans of .47% at June 30, 2000, .66% at September
30, 1999 and .34% at June 30, 1999.

At June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, the balance of the allowance for loan
losses was $982,000 and $995,000, respectively.  The ratio of the allowance
for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 117.46% and 93.08%, respectively,
and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was .56% and
 .62%, respectively.  Management believes that the current allowance for loan
losses is adequate based upon prior loss experience, the volume and type of
lending conducted by the Association, industry standards, past due loans and
the current economic conditions in the market area.

Noninterest Income.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000, noninterest income increased $32,000
(11.9%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was primarily due
to an increase of $28,000 in loan origination fees.  In the quarter ended June
30, 2000, $11.5 million of single-family mortgage loans were originated and
$2.0 million were sold.  In the quarter ended June 30, 1999, $7.0 million of
single-family mortgage loans were originated and $2.3 million were sold.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, noninterest income decreased $144,000
(16.3%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The decrease was primarily due
to decreases of $113,000 in net gain on sale of loans and $47,000 in loan
origination fees, which were partially offset by an increase of $27,000 in
other noninterest income (primarily service charges).  In the nine months
ended June 30, 2000, $23.4 million of single-family mortgage loans were
originated and $2.2 million were sold.  In the nine months ended June 30,
1999, $24.5 million of single-family mortgage loans were originated and $9.4
million were sold.

Noninterest Expense.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000, noninterest expense increased
$168,000 (22.7%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was
primarily due to an increase of $173,000 in other noninterest expense,
partially offset by a decrease of $14,000 in SAIF deposit insurance premiums.
The increase in other noninterest expense was primarily due to increases of
$144,000 in merger related expenses, $9,000 in advertising expense, $4,000 in
data processing expense and $4,000 in telephone and postage expense.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, noninterest expense increased
$217,000 (9.5%) compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was
primarily due to an increase of $230,000 in other non interest expense,
partially offset by a decrease of $28,000 in SAIF deposit insurance premiums.
The increase in other noninterest expense was primarily due to increases of
$144,000 in merger related expenses, $11,000 in advertising expense, $26,000
in data processing expense and $7,000 in telephone and postage expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and the
shares of the Association's common stock.  The Company has no significant
liabilities.

The Association's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a
product of its operating, investing and financing activities.  The
Association's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayments
and maturities of outstanding loans, sales of loans, maturities of investment
securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from
operations.  While scheduled loan amortization and maturing investment
securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of
funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions and competition.  The Association manages
the pricing of its deposits to maintain a steady deposit balance.  In
addition, the Association invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other
short-term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending
requirements.  The Association generates cash through the retail deposit
market, its traditional funding source, to provide cash for lending and
investing activities.  As an additional source of funds, the Association may
borrow from the FHLB of Dallas and has utilized this source of funds with
borrowings of $27.8 million and $17.5 million at June 30, 2000 and September
30, 1999, respectively.

All savings institutions are required to maintain an average daily balance of
liquid assets equal to a certain percentage of the sum of its average daily
balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and borrowings payable in one
year or less.  The liquidity requirement may vary from time to time (between
4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings flows of all
savings institutions.   At the present time, the required minimum liquid asset
ratio is 4.0%.  At June 30, 2000, the Association's liquidity ratio was 16.3%.

The Company's and the Association's regulatory capital remains well in excess
of all applicable regulatory requirements.  At June 30, 2000, the Company's
tier 1 leverage, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios were
13.26%, 21.79% and 22.27%, respectively, and the Association's tier 1
leverage, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios were 13.05%,
21.44% and 21.92%, respectively, compared to regulatory "well capitalized"
requirements of 5.0%, 6.0% and 10.0%, respectively.


Recent Legislation

A new financial modernization bill titled the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the
"Act") was signed into law in November 1999.  The Act repealed the Glass-
Steagall Act and allows banks, insurance companies and security firms to
affiliate through new financial holding companies.  A national bank may engage
in many new financial activities through a subsidiary.  It authorizes
operating subsidiaries to sell any financial product without geographic
limitation.  Activities not permitted in subsidiaries include insurance
underwriting, insurance company portfolio investing, real estate investment
and development, and merchant banking (merchant banking may be allowed in five
years if both the Fed and Treasury agree).  The subsidiary operation would be
available only to well-capitalized and well-managed banks.  The powers and
authorities of existing unitary thrift holding companies are grandfathered.
Sale of existing unitaries can be to financial companies only.  The Office of
Thrift Supervision can continue to grant unitary charters to financial
companies, but cannot grant charters to nonfinancial companies.  The Act
repealed the Savings Association Insurance Fund special reserve and allows the
FDIC to return nearly $1 billion to the SAIF general reserves.

The Act requires all financial institutions to disclose their privacy policies
to their customers at the time a relationship is created and then annually on
sharing customer information with affiliates and third parties.  Customers
must be notified that they may opt-out of sharing with nonaffiliated third
parties, with certain exceptions.  The Act extends the Community Reinvestment
Act compliance examination cycle for community banks (banks and thrifts with
less than $250 million in assets) to five years if they had an "outstanding"
rating and to four years if they had a "satisfactory" rating.

The Act also provides for modernization of the Federal Home Loan Bank System.
Governance of the FHLBanks will be decentralized, allowing Bank directors to
elect their chairman and vice chairman, and membership in the FHLB becomes
voluntary for all members.

Under the Act, the Federal Reserve Board is the umbrella supervisor of
financial holding companies, and state and federal regulators will
functionally regulate insurance and securities affiliates.  The FDIC retains
full authority to allow state chartered banks to continue to engage in
grandfathered activities and to approve new activities that go beyond the
powers of national banks.


Recent Accounting Developments

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities".  This statement standardizes the
accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts.  Entities are required to carry all
derivative instruments in the statement of financial position at fair value.
The accounting for changes in the fair value (that is, gains or losses) of a
derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies
as part of a hedging relationship and, if so, on the reason for holding it.
Initially, SFAS No. 133 was to be effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 1999.  On July 7, 1999, FASB
issued SFAS No. 137 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS No. 133" providing for a
one year deferral to fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2000 (the
Company's effective date of October 1, 2000).  Adoption of this statement is
not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.

On December 30, 1999, the SEC adopted new rules and amendments, including the
requirement that independent auditors review the financial information
included in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or 10-QSB prior to filing such
reports with the SEC.  Registrants must obtain reviews of interim financial
information starting with reports to be filed for fiscal quarters ending on or
after March 15, 2000.
