BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prosperity
Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First
Prosperity Bank (the "Bank") and Prosperity Holdings, Inc. All significant
inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of the Company on a consolidated basis, and all
such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements
and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's
Prospectus filed on November 11, 1998. Operating results for the nine month
period ended September 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

      Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which requires that all
components of comprehensive income and total comprehensive income be reported on
one of the following: the statement of operations, the statement of
shareholders' equity, or a separate statement of comprehensive income.
Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to shareholders'
equity, except those due to investments by owners (changes in capital surplus)
and distributions to owners (dividends). The Company is reporting comprehensive
income on its statement of changes in shareholders' equity.

      SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," requires public companies to report certain information about
their operating segments in their annual financial statements and quarterly
reports issued to shareholders, for years beginning after implementation. It
also requires public companies to report certain information about their
products and services, the geographic areas in which they operate, and their
major customers. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The Company will implement SFAS No 131 for its 1998 Annual
Report on Form 10-K. Implementation of SFAS No. 131 should have no material
effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

      In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for
Hedging Activities," was issued. This statement requires companies to recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure
those instruments at fair value. SFAS No.133 requires that changes in fair value
of a derivative be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge
accounting criteria are met. This statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999 but early adoption is allowed. The Company does
not currently have any derivative instruments.

RECENT ACQUISITION

      GENERAL. The Company's Board of Directors actively pursues an acquisition
strategy designed to increase efficiency, market share and return to
shareholders. As part of this strategy, on October 1, 1998 the Company acquired
Union State Bank ("Union"), a Texas banking association organized in 1907,
pursuant to a statutory merger (the "Union Acquisition"). Union is a single
location community bank whose business includes conventional consumer and
commercial products and services, including interest and noninterest-bearing
depository accounts and commercial, industrial, consumer, agricultural and real
estate lending. At September 30, 1998, Union had total assets of approximately
$79.4 million, total deposits of approximately $66.1 million and total
shareholders' equity of approximately $13.0 million. Union was the only
full-service commercial bank in East Bernard and has a stable customer base.

      The Union Acquisition would have been accretive to the Company's earnings
by $0.09 per share on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30,
1998. The Union Acquisition provides the Company a presence in East Bernard, a
community of 1,500 located in northern Wharton County. The acquisition increased
the Company's market share in Wharton County, where the Company's El Campo
Banking Center is located. The acquisition of Union will also help the Company
improve its loan mix by increasing the Company's agriculture loans as of
September 30,1998 from $7.1 million to $17.6 million on a pro forma basis .
Union has a lending philosophy which is similar to that employed by the Company.
The Company's significantly higher lending limit is expected to create lending
opportunities in the market that Union was unable to take advantage of prior to
the acquisition. Similar to its previous acquisitions, the Company believes that
the Union Acquisition will enable the Company to achieve certain economies of
scale and resultant savings from the operation of Union as an additional Banking
Center.

      Upon consummation of the Union Acquisition, holders of shares of Union
common stock received $17.6 million in cash as consideration in exchange for
their shares. The source of the Company's funds for the acquisition was a
combination of existing cash ($15.6 million ) and borrowed funds ($2.0 million).
The Union Acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. At the
closing of the Union Acquisition, two executive officers of Union entered into
three year employment agreements with the Company which contain two-year
non-competition clauses.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements set
forth the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 1998 and the consolidated
income statements for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998 and for the
year ended December 31, 1997, for the Company and Union and the adjustments
reflecting the acquisition of Union and the pro forma combined information
following such transaction. The Union Acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase and the assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair
market values, with the excess of the respective purchase prices over the net
fair market values recorded as goodwill. The information with respect to the
Company and Union as of September 30, 1998, and the pro forma information is
unaudited. The pro forma balance sheet assumes that the Union Acquisition was
consummated on the balance sheet date. The pro forma income statements assume
that the Union Acquisition was consummated at the beginning of the period
indicated. The pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Prospectus. The pro forma combined balance sheet and statements of income are
not necessarily indicative of the combined financial position at consummation of
the Union Acquisition or the results of operation following consummation of the
Union Acquisition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS 
        OF OPERATIONS

      Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") is a registered bank holding
Company that derives substantially all of its revenues and income from the
operation of First Prosperity Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank is a full service bank
that provides a broad line of financial products and services to small and
medium sized businesses and consumers through 12 full-service banking locations,
three of which are located in the greater Houston metropolitan area. The
following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations may contain certain forward-looking statements regarding
future financial condition, results of operations, and the Company's business
operations. Such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions,
including, but not limited to, monetary policy and general economic conditions
in Texas and the Houston metropolitan area, the actions of competitors and
customers, the success of the Company in implementing its strategic plan, and
the effects of regulatory restrictions imposed on banks and bank holding
companies generally. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
materialize, or should these underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
outcomes may vary materially from outcomes expected or anticipated by the
Company.

OVERVIEW

      The Company showed positive earnings growth due to the increase in loan
volume and the acquisition of deposits and certain assets of the branch of Wells
Fargo Bank in Angleton, Texas (the "Angleton Acquisition") in the second quarter
of 1997. Net income available to common shareholders was $1.1 million ($0.26 per
common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended September 30, 1998
compared with $948,000 ($0.25 per common share on a diluted basis) for the
quarter ended September 30, 1997, an increase of $132,000, or 13.9%. The Company
posted returns on average common equity of 15.94% and 16.03% and returns on
average assets of 1.29% and 1.20% for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, net income
available to common shareholders was $3.1 million ($0.77 per common share on a
diluted basis) compared with $2.6 million ($0.69 per common share on a diluted
basis) for the same period in 1997, an increase of $529,000, or 20.3%.

      Total assets were $336.4 million at September 30, 1998 compared with
$320.1 million at December 31, 1997. Total loans increased to $147.7 million at
September 30, 1998 from $120.6 million at December 31, 1997, an increase of
$27.1 million, or 22.5%. Total deposits were $305.3 million at September 30,
1998 compared with $291.5 million at December 31, 1997. Shareholders' equity
increased $2.9 million or 11.9%, to $27.8 million at September 30, 1998 compared
with $24.8 million at December 31, 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

      Net interest income was $3.2 million for the quarter ended September 30,
1998 compared with $2.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1997, an
increase of $376,000, or 13.1%. Net interest income increased as a result of an
increase in average interest-earning assets to $310.0 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 1998 from $289.1 million for the quarter ended September 30,
1997, an increase of $20.9 million, or 7.2%. The net interest margin on a tax
equivalent basis, increased to 4.22% from 4.00% for the same periods, primarily
due to loan growth. Net interest income increased $1.4 million, or 16.9% to $9.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $8.0 million for the
same period in 1997. This increase is mainly attributable to higher average
interest-earning assets and higher average loans.

      The Company's net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and
mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as
a "volume change." It is also affected by changes in yields earned on
interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other


                                       14

<PAGE>
borrowed funds, referred to as a "rate change." The following tables set forth,
for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
the average amounts outstanding, the interest earned or paid on such amounts,
and the average rate earned or paid for the quarters ended September 30, 1998
and 1997. The tables also set forth the average rate paid on total
interest-bearing liabilities, and the net interest margin on average total
interest-earning assets for the same periods.

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and
interest expense for the major components of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities and distinguishes between the increase (decrease)
related to outstanding balances and the volatility of interest rates. For
purposes of this table changes attributable to both rate and volume, which
cannot be segregated, have been allocated to rate.

Allowance for Credit Losses

      Management actively monitors the Company's asset quality and provides
specific loss allowances when necessary. Loans are charged-off against the
allowance for loan losses when appropriate. Although management believes it uses
the best information available to make determinations with respect to the
allowance for credit losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic
conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the initial
determinations. As of September 30, 1998, the allowance for credit losses
amounted to $1.2 million, or 0.79% of total loans.

Provisions for credit losses are charged to income to bring the total allowance
for credit losses to a level deemed appropriate by management of the Company
based on such factors as historical experience, the volume and type of policies,
general economic conditions and other factors related to the collectibility of
loans in the Company's portfolio.

The provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 was
$70,000 compared with $60,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The
increase resulted from continued growth in loans. The provision for credit
losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased $50,000 to
$215,000 from $165,000 in the corresponding period last year. For the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, net charge-offs were $62,000, or 0.05% of
average loans.

      Much of the increase in noninterest expense for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1998 compared with the same period in 1997 was due to
additional expenses associated with the Angleton Acquisition.

<PAGE>
      Salaries and employee benefit expenses were $1.1 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 1998 and $3.2 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1998, an increase of $70,000, or 6.8%, and $283,000, or 9.7%, compared with
the same periods in 1997. The changes were due primarily to an increase in the
number of employees due to the Angleton Acquisition and annual employee salary
increases.

      Non-staff expenses increased $66,000, or 6.4%, to $1.1 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1998, non-staff expenses increased $441,000, or
15.8%.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense increased $95,000 to $487,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 1998 from $392,000 for the same period in 1997. The increase was primarily
attributable to higher pretax net earnings.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

      The company had no nonperforming assets for the for the period ended
September 30, 1998 and had $47,000 in nonperforming assets for the period ended
December 31, 1997. The Company generally places a loan on nonaccrual status and
ceases accruing interest when the payment of principal or interest is

                                       21
<PAGE>
delinquent for 90 days, or earlier in some cases, unless the loan is in the
process of collection and the underlying collateral fully supports the carrying
value of the loan. The Company generally charges off all loans before attaining
nonaccrual status.

SECURITIES

      Securities totaled $160.6 million at September 30, 1998 compared with
$167.9 million at December 31, 1997, a decline of $7.2 million, or 4.3%. The
decline occurred as maturing securities were used to fund loans. At September
30, 1998, securities represented 47.7% of total assets compared with 52.4% of
total assets at December 31, 1997.

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

      Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $5.4
million at September 30, 1998, a decline of $144,000, or 2.6%, from $5.5 million
at December 31, 1997. The decline was due primarily to depreciation of existing
premises and equipment.

DEPOSITS

      Total deposits were $305.3 million at September 30, 1998 compared with
$291.5 million at December 31, 1997, an increase of $13.8 million. At September
30, 1998, non-interest bearing deposits accounted for approximately 22.7% of
total deposits. Interest-bearing demand deposits totaled $236.1 million, or
77.3%, of total deposits at September 30, 1998 compared with $230.1 million, or
78.9%, of total deposits at December 31, 1997.

BORROWINGS

      The Company had notes payable as of September 30, 1998 of $2.0 million and
had Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $2.8 million for the same period in 1997.

LIQUIDITY

      Effective management of balance sheet liquidity is necessary to fund
growth in earning assets and to pay liability maturities, depository customers'
withdrawal requirements and shareholders' dividends. Thc Company has numerous
sources of liquidity including a significant portfolio of shorter-term assets,
marketable investment securities (excluding those presently classified as
"held-to-maturity"), increases in customers' deposits, and access to borrowing
arrangements. Available borrowing arrangements maintained by the Company include
federal funds lines with other commercial banks and an advancement arrangement
with the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB").

      Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily
marketable or which will mature in the near future. As of September 30, 1998,
the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 


                                       22

<PAGE>
million, down from $17.4 million at December 31, 1997. The decline was due
primarily to an increase in loans.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Total shareholders' equity was $27.8 million at September 30, 1998
compared with $24.8 million at December 31, 1997, an increase of $3.0 million,
or 11.9%. The increase was due primarily to net earnings of $3.1 million (less
dividends of $575,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

      Both the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, with respect to
the Company, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, with respect to the
Bank, have established certain minimum risk-based capital standards that apply
to bank holding companies and federally insured banks. The Company's risk-based
capital ratios remain above the levels designated as "well capitalized" on
September 30, 1998, with Tier 1 capital, total risk-based capital and leverage
capital ratios of 15.4%, 16.3% and 6.6%, respectively. The bank's risk-based
capital ratios remain above the levels designated as "well capitalized" on
September 30, 1998, with Tier-1 capital, total risk-based capital and leverage
capital ratios of 15.4%, 16.2% and 6.5%, respectively.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

      GENERAL. The Year 2000 risk involves computer programs and computer
software that are not able to perform without interruption into the Year 2000.
If computer systems do not correctly recognize the date change from December 31,
1999 to January 1, 2000, computer applications that rely on the date field could
fail or create erroneous results. Such erroneous results could affect interest,
payment or due dates or cause the temporary inability to process transactions,
send invoices or engage in similar normal business activities. If these issues
are not addressed by the Company, its suppliers and its borrowers, there could
be a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.

      STATE OF READINESS. The Company formally initiated its Year 2000 project
and plan in November 1997 to insure that its operational and financial systems
will not be adversely affected by year problems. The Company has formed a Year
2000 project team and the Board of Directors and management are supporting all
compliance efforts and allocating the necessary resources to ensure completion.
An inventory of all systems and products (including both information technology
("IT") and non-informational technology ("non-IT") systems) that could be
affected by the Year 2000 date change has been developed, verified and
categorized as to its importance to the Company and an assessment of all major
IT and critical non-IT systems has been completed. This assessment involved
inputting test data which simulates the Year 2000 date change into such IT
systems and reviewing the system output for accuracy. The Company's assessment
of critical non-IT systems involved reviewing such systems to determine whether
they were date dependent. Based on such assessment, the Company believes that
none of its critical non-IT systems are date dependent. The software for the
Company's systems is provided through service bureaus and software vendors. The
Company has contacted all of its third party vendors and software providers and
is requiring them to demonstrate and represent that the products provided are or
will be Year 2000 compliant and has planned a program of testing compliance. The
Company's service bureau, which performs substantially all of the Company's data
processing functions, has warranted in writing that its software is Year 2000
compliant and pursuant to applicable regulatory guidelines the Company is
currently reviewing the results of user group tests performed by the service
provider to verify this assertion. The Company believes it would have recourse
against the service provider for actual damages incurred by the Company in the
event the service provider breaches this warranty. In addition, the Company's
compliance with Year 2000 issues has been reviewed by the FDIC in 1998.

      Except as discussed above, the Company has completed the following phases
of its Year 2000 plan: (I) recognizing Year 2000 issues, (ii) assessing the
impact of Year 2000 issues on the Company's critical systems and (iii) upgrading
systems as necessary to resolve those Year 2000 issues which have 


                                       23
<PAGE>
been identified. The Company is in the final stages of testing and implementing
those systems that have been upgraded.

      COSTS OF COMPLIANCE. Management does not expect the costs of bringing the
Company's systems into Year 2000 compliance will have a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial conditions, results of operations or liquidity. The
Company has budgeted $10,000 to address Year 2000 issues. As of September 30,
1998, the Company has incurred about $1,000 in costs to address these issues.
The largest potential risk to the Company concerning Year 2000 is the
malfunction of its data processing system. In the event its data processing
system does not function properly, the Company is prepared to perform functions
manually. The Company believes it is in compliance with regulatory guidelines
regarding Year 2000 compliance, including the timetable for achieving
compliance.

      RISKS RELATED TO THIRD PARTIES. The impact of Year 2000 non-compliance by
third parties with which the Company transacts business cannot be accurately
gauged. The Company identified its largest dollar deposit (aggregate deposits
over $500,000) and loan ($250,000 or more ) customers and, based on information
available to the Company, conducted a preliminary evaluation to determine which
of those customers are likely to be affected by Year 2000 issues. The Company
then surveyed those customers deemed at risk to determine their readiness with
respect to Year 2000 issues, including their awareness of Year 2000 issues,
plans to address such issues and progress with respect to such plans. The survey
included approximately 71% of all depositors with average balances of $500,000
or greater, which is approximately 10 % of its total dollar deposit base , and
approximately 53% of its borrowers of $250,000 or more, which is approximately
13% of its total dollar loan base. The responses to these surveys are due by
December 31, 1998. As of the September 30, 1998, approximately 23.6% of such
customers have responded to the survey and all of those customers are aware of
Year 2000 issues, are in the process of updating their systems and have informed
the Company that they believe they will be ready for the Year 2000 date change
by the end of 1999. The Company will continue to review such responses as they
are returned and will encourage customers to resolve any identified problems. To
the extent a problem is identified, the Company intends to monitor the
customer's progress in resolving such problem. In the event that Year 2000
noncompliance adversely affects a borrower, the Company may be required to
charge-off the loan to that borrower. For a discussion of possible effects of
such charge-offs, see "--Contingency Plans" below. In the event that Year 2000
noncompliance causes a depositor to withdraw funds, the Company plans to
maintain additional cash on hand. The Company relies on the Federal Reserve for
electronic fund transfers and check clearing and understands that the Federal
Reserve expects its systems to be Year 2000 compliant by the end of 1998. With
respect to its borrowers, the Company includes in its loan documents a Year 2000
disclosure form and an addendum to the loan agreement in which the borrower
represents and warrants its Year 2000 compliance to the Company.

      CONTINGENCY PLANS. The Company has finalized its contingency planning with
respect to the Year 2000 date change and believes that if its own systems should
fail, the company could convert to a manual entry system for a period of up to
six months without significant losses. The company believes that any mission
critical systems could be recovered and operating within seven days. In the
event that the Federal Reserve is unable to handle-electronic funds transfers
and check clearing, the Company does not expect the impact to be material to its
financial condition or results of operations as long as the Company is able to
utilize an alternative electronic funds transfer and clearing source. As part of
its contingency planning, the Company has reviewed its loan customer base and
the potential impact on capital of Year 2000 noncompliance. Based upon such
review, using what it considers to be a reasonable worst case scenario, the
Company has assumed that certain of its commercial borrowers whose businesses
are most likely to be affected by Year 2000 noncompliance would be unable to
repay their loans, resulting in charge-offs of loan amounts in excess of
collateral values. If such were the case, the Company believes that it is
unlikely that its exposure would exceed $300,000, although there are no
assurances that this amount will not be substantially higher. The Company does
not believe that this amount is material enough for the Company to adjust it
current methodology for making provisions to the allowance for credit losses. In
addition, the Company plans to maintain additional cash on hand to met any
unusual deposit withdrawal activity.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      The Company manages market risk, primarily interest rate risk, through its
Asset Liability Committee which is composed of senior officers of the Company,
in accordance with policies approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

      The Company uses simulation analysis to examine the potential effects of
market changes on net interest income and market value. It considers
macroeconomic variables, Company strategy, liquidity and other factors as it
quantifies market risk. There have been no material changes of this nature since
the Prospectus filing on November 11, 1998.
