IBERIABANK Corporation Continues Pace of Record Earnings

LAFAYETTE, LOUISIANA — IBERIABANK Corporation (NASDAQ: IBKC), the holding company of the 117-year-old IBERIABANK (http://www.iberiabank.com), announced record quarterly earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. The Company earned $6.5 million, a 24% increase over the same period in 2003, and up 3% compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company earned $0.90 per diluted share for the quarter, up 8% from the same period in 2003, and up 2% compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company’s results of $0.90 per diluted share exceeded average analyst expectations for the quarter by $0.01 per share. For 17 consecutive quarters, the Company has achieved record results that have met or exceeded average analyst estimates.

Total assets climbed $155 million, or 7% compared to December 31, 2003. Similarly, deposits grew $168 million, or 11% over the same period. Total shareholders’ equity increased $22 million, or 11% since year-end 2003, resulting in an equity-to-assets ratio of 9.57% at March 31, 2004. Book value per share escalated $1.74 per share, or 6%, since year-end 2003, to $31.02 per share.

Daryl G. Byrd, President and CEO of IBERIABANK Corporation, remarked, “I’m pleased with the growth we have achieved so far this year and am particularly excited about our new presence in the Baton Rouge market. On February 29^th, we completed the acquisition of Alliance Bank of Baton Rouge. The systems conversion is proceeding well and will be completed in the second quarter of 2004. We are delighted to have the associates and shareholders of Alliance Bank as members of the IBERIABANK family.”

Additional Highlights For The Quarter Ended March 31, 2004

• The acquisition of Alliance Bank of Baton Rouge (“Alliance Bank”) was completed on February 29, 2004 using the purchase accounting method under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, the financial statements of the Company were not restated prior to February 29, 2004. As such, period-end balances incorporate the impact of the acquisition, including goodwill of $5.1 million, while average balances and income-related items were impacted for approximately one-third of the quarter just completed.

• The Company issued 287,285 shares of IBERIABANK Corporation common stock in association with the acquisition of Alliance Bank. The acquisition had an immaterial impact on reported fully diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for first quarter of 2004.

• Tax-equivalent net interest margin was 3.75% in the first quarter of 2004, down 10 basis points from 3.85% for the fourth quarter of 2003. The yield on earning assets declined eight basis points between the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004 (a “linked quarter basis”).

Average investment yield improved 23 basis points, but the improvement was more than offset by the 12 basis points decline in average loan yield during the quarter. Interest-bearing liability costs increased one basis point on a linked quarter basis.

• For the first quarter of 2004, return on average assets (“ROA”) was 1.20%, return on average equity (“ROE”) was 12.75% and return on average tangible equity was 19.07%.

• Asset quality improved dramatically during the quarter. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.13% in the first quarter of 2004. Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) decreased $2.5 million, or 34%, during the quarter compared to December 31, 2003. As a percentage of total assets, NPAs were 0.21% at March 31, 2004, compared to 0.34% at December 31, 2003 and 0.42% at December 31, 2002. The allowance for loan losses was 1.32% at March 31, 2004, compared to 1.29% of total loans at December 31, 2003 and 1.25% at December 31, 2002.

• Equity-to-assets ratio was 9.57% at March 31, 2004, up 35 basis points from 9.22% at year-end 2003 and 8.89% at December 31, 2002. Tier 1 leverage ratio was 7.86%, up 36 basis points compared to 7.50% at year-end 2003 and 7.62% at year-end 2002.

• On March 16, 2004, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 per share, an increase of 20% compared to the same quarter last year. The dividend payout ratio was 25.5% in the first quarter of 2004, compared to 25.7% in the fourth quarter of 2003.

• On September 17, 2003, the Company announced a repurchase program of up to 300,000 shares. The Company acquired 52,100 shares of the Company’s common stock during the first quarter of 2004, at a weighted average cost of $60.81 per share. No additional shares were acquired since the middle of March 2004. In aggregate, the Company purchased 83,800 shares at an average cost of $59.13 per share, or approximately 28% of the authorized share amount.

• During the quarter, the Company opened a full service office in downtown Shreveport and a private banking office in the Uptown section of New Orleans. In addition, the Company recently opened mortgage loan production offices in Houma, Alexandria, and Mandeville.

Daryl G. Byrd, President and CEO of IBERIABANK Corporation, remarked, “We started 2004 on a very positive note. We delivered solid financial results and continued our long-term expansion activities despite the challenging interest rate environment. We expect some of the interest rate challenges to persist into the second quarter as well. Asset quality improved dramatically during the quarter, resulting in credit statistics that were the best we have achieved over the last four years. Based on current results and favorable loan and deposit pipeline levels, I am very pleased with the efforts of our associates and the extraordinary pace that we have established.”

Loans And Deposits

The volume of mortgage loan originations totaled $48 million in the first quarter of 2004, down 15% from $56 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $128 million in the third quarter of 2003. The pipeline of mortgage loans in process was $60 million at March 31, 2004, up 73% from $34 million at year-end 2003. During the quarter, the Company sold into the secondary market $29 million in residential mortgage loans and construction mortgage loans recently released from construction that were held in the loan portfolio. The Company decided to take advantage of the rapidly falling mortgage interest rates that occurred during the latter half of the quarter. These loan sales were consistent with the Company’s stated plans to accelerate the sale of long-maturity, recently originated, mortgage production into the secondary market, including mortgage loans coming out of construction.

Total loans grew $59 million between March 31, 2004 and year-end 2003, or an increase of 4%. The acquisition of Alliance Bank accounts increased total loans by $54 million, while the aforementioned mortgage loan sales decreased loans by $29 million. Exclusive of these two factors, organic loan growth was approximately $34 million, or 2% (10% annualized rate).

The average yield on loans declined 12 basis points between the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004 as average loan volume climbed $22 million, or 2%. During this period, mortgage, consumer and commercial loan yields declined by 9, 10, and 14 basis points, respectively.

Between December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, total deposits grew $168 million, or 11%. The Alliance Bank acquisition accounted for $62 million, or 37% of the growth. The Company placed greater emphasis on deposit growth beginning in the fall of 2003. As a result of those efforts, the Company experienced strong deposit growth in all segments—retail, commercial, and public fund segments. The Company’s cost of interest bearing deposits increased four basis points in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. Average interest bearing deposits climbed $87 million, or 6%, during the quarter. Average non-interest bearing deposit volume remained stable during this period.

Investment Portfolio, Funding And Capital

The investment portfolio totaled $547 million at March 31, 2004, up 14% compared to December 31, 2003. As a percentage of assets, the investment portfolio edged up slightly from 23% at year-end 2003 and September 30, 2003 to 24% at March 31, 2004. The yield on the investment portfolio improved 23 basis points between the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004, after improving 79 basis points between the third and fourth quarters of 2003. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company sold approximately $8 million in agency bonds and purchased an equivalent amount, recognizing a gain of $0.1 million on the sale. The trade was anticipated to have a positive impact on earnings on an ongoing basis as a result of an increase in yield and an increase in duration of the new bonds of approximately one year.

Bond premium amortization was $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2004, compared to $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2003, and $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2003. Given anticipated prepayment speeds, cash flows and reinvestment opportunities, management estimates premium amortization to be at a slightly higher level in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the quarter just completed. Management anticipates higher interest income may offset the negative impact of higher premium amortization levels during the second quarter.

At March 31, 2004, the Company’s investment portfolio had a modified duration of 3.1 years, compared to 3.4 years at year-end 2003 and 3.7 years at September 30, 2003. The portfolio had an unrealized gain of $7.7 million at March 31, 2004, compared to $3.1 million at year-end 2003 and $1.5 million at September 30, 2003.

Capital ratios increased significantly during the first quarter of 2004. Shareholders’ equity increased $22 million between December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004. Shareholders’ equity was 9.57% of total assets at March 31, 2004 compared to 9.22% at year-end 2003 and 9.06% at September 30, 2003. At these period ends, the tier 1 leverage ratio was 7.86%, 7.50%, and 7.35%, respectively.

Asset Quality

The Company experienced a significant improvement in asset quality during the quarter, driven in part by the previously disclosed resolution of a large motel credit. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans dropped to 0.13% during the first quarter of 2004, compared to 0.23% on a linked quarter basis. This charge-off level is the lowest level in 15 consecutive quarters. The Company’s provision for loan losses was $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2004, down from $1.6 million recorded in each of the prior four quarters. The provision covered net charge-offs 2.2 times, compared to 1.9 times in the fourth quarter of 2003, and

3

1.8 times in the third quarter of 2003. The allowance for loan losses was 1.32% at March 31, 2004, up from 1.29% at year-end 2003, and 1.25% at September 30, 2003. The Company believes that it uses a conservative definition of NPAs. The Company defines NPAs as non-accruing loans, accruing loans more than 90 days past due, foreclosed assets, and Other Real Estate Owned. Non-performing assets amounted to $4.8 million at March 31, 2004, down 34% compared to $7.3 million at December 31, 2003. NPAs equated to 0.21% of total assets at March 31, 2004, down from 0.34% at year-end 2003, and 0.33% at September 30, 2003. At the same period ends, the Company’s reserve coverage of NPAs was 406%, 251%, 253%, respectively. The reserve-to-loans ratio and reserve coverage of NPA ratio were at their most favorable levels in over 20 consecutive quarters.

Operating Results

The Company’s tax-equivalent net interest margin declined 10 basis points from 3.85% in the fourth quarter of 2003 to 3.75% in first quarter of 2004. Tax-equivalent net interest income was essentially stable between the two quarters, while average earning assets increased $62 million between quarters. The growth in average earnings assets was split 43% due to loans and loans held for sale and 49% due to investment security portfolio growth. The yield on earning assets declined eight basis points as a result of the impact of refinancing on certain loan segments. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was essentially flat on a linked quarter basis. Total revenues declined $0.1 million, a decrease of less than 1% compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. Total tax-equivalent revenues were $24.4 million, a decrease of less than 1% compared to the fourth quarter of 2003.

Noninterest income in the first quarter of 2004 declined $0.1 million, or 2%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. Mortgage loan gains totaled $0.9 million in both the first quarter of 2004 and in the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company recorded $0.1 million in gains on asset sales in both the first quarter of 2004 and in the fourth quarter of 2003. Service charges on deposit accounts declined $0.2 million on a linked quarter basis. All other noninterest revenue was essentially unchanged between the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004.

Total noninterest expense increased $0.1 million, or less than 1%, versus the fourth quarter of 2003. In December 2003, the Company recorded a $0.2 million penalty on the prepayment of $8 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Exclusive of the prepayment penalty, expenses increased $0.3 million, or 3%. The primary causes for the expense increase were share tax expense increase of $0.2 million and payroll tax and ESOP expense increase of $0.2 million. The Company’s tax-equivalent tangible efficiency ratio (a measure of a bank’s operating efficiency) increased from 52.5% in the fourth quarter of 2003 to 53.2% in the first quarter of 2004. The Company remains comfortable with the targeted ratio of 50%.

Return on average assets was 1.20% for the first quarter of 2004, up one basis point compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. Return on average equity for the first quarter of 2004 was 12.75%, down 20 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2003, due primarily to a $12 million increase in average equity. Management believes traditional ROE measures penalize companies, such as IBERIABANK Corporation, that completed acquisitions using only purchase accounting treatment and not pooling of interests treatment. As a result, an alternative measure that the Company considers to “level the playing field” between purchase and pooling of interests accounting treatments is return on average tangible equity. Return on average tangible equity, which excludes the effects of intangible assets and related amortization expenses was 19.07% in the first quarter of 2004, compared to 19.86% in the fourth quarter of 2003. The return on average tangible equity ratio declined on a linked quarter basis due to a $12 million increase in average tangible equity.

Management of the Company announced today continued comfort with the previously disclosed EPS comfort range for 2004 of $3.75 to $3.85 per fully diluted share. This EPS range equates to an increase of 10% to 13% growth over 2003 fully diluted EPS of $3.42. The range of $3.75 to $3.85

compares to a current average analyst estimate for 2004 of $3.82 per fully diluted share. For the year 2005, management stated comfort with double–digit growth in fully diluted EPS over estimated 2004 guidance.

4

Based on a closing stock price on April 22, 2004 of $56.14 per share, the Company’s common stock traded at a price-to-earnings ratio of 14.7 times current average analyst estimates of $3.82 per fully diluted EPS for 2004 and 13.1 times average analyst estimates of $4.30 per fully diluted EPS for 2005. In addition, the Company’s stock traded at 1.81 times March 31, 2004 book value per share of $31.02. On March 16, 2004, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 per share, payable to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2004. This dividend level represented a 20% increase over the same period last year and equated to an annualized dividend rate of $0.96 per share and an indicated dividend yield of 1.71%.

In association with this earnings release, the Company will host a live conference call to discuss the financial results for the quarter just completed. The telephone conference call will be held on Friday, April 23, 2004, beginning at 7:30 a.m. Central Daylight Time by dialing 1-888-273-9887. The confirmation code for the call is 725441.
