3. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

         SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for Hedging
Activities," establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair
value. This statement is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2000.
Management believes the implementation of this pronouncement will not have a
material effect on the Company's financial statements.

4.       RECENT ACQUISITION

     On September 15, 2000, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, First
Prosperity Bank, purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of
five branches of Compass Bancshares, Inc. located in El Campo, Hitchcock,
Needville, Palacios and Sweeny, Texas. The Company accounted for the acquisition
under the purchase method of accounting. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Overview."

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 18 full-service banking locations
in the greater Houston metropolitan area and in the nine contiguous counties
south and southwest of Houston and extending into South Texas.

         Statements and financial discussion and analysis contained in the Form
10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements made pursuant
to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and involve a number
of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control. The
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
forward-looking statements include, without limitation:

o    changes in interest rates and market prices, which could reduce the
     Company's net interest margins, asset valuations and expense expectations;

o    changes in the levels of loan prepayments and the resulting effects on the
     value of the Company's loan portfolio;

o    changes in local economic and business conditions which adversely affect
     the Company's customers and their ability to transact profitable business
     with the company, including the ability of the Company's borrowers to repay
     their loans according to their terms or a change in the value of the
     related collateral.

o    increased competition for deposits and loans adversely affecting rates and
     terms;

o    the timing, impact and other uncertainties of future acquisitions,
     including the Company's ability to identify suitable future acquisition
     candidates, the success or failure in the integration of their operations,
     and the ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth
     opportunities;

o    increased credit risk in the Company's assets and increased operating risk
     caused by a material change in commercial, consumer and/or real estate
     loans as a percentage of the total loan portfolio;

                                       8
<PAGE>   3

o    the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of and provisions
     made to the allowance for credit losses;

o    changes in the availability of funds resulting in increased costs or
     reduced liquidity;

o    increased asset levels and changes in the composition of assets and the
     resulting impact on the Company's capital levels and regulatory capital
     ratios;

o    the Company's ability to acquire, operate and maintain cost effective and
     efficient systems without incurring unexpectedly difficult or expensive but
     necessary technological changes;

o    the loss of senior management or operating personnel and the potential
     inability to hire qualified personnel at reasonable compensation levels;
     and

o    changes in statutes and government regulations or their interpretations
     applicable to bank holding companies and the Company's present and future
     banking and other subsidiaries, including changes in tax requirements and
     tax rates.


OVERVIEW

         The Company showed positive earnings growth for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2000 due to the increase in loan volume, and the acquisition
of five branches of Compass Bancshares, Inc. (the "Compass Acquisition") in the
third quarter of 2000 and the acquisition of South Texas Bancshares and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, The Commercial National Bank of Beeville, (the "South
Texas Acquisition") in the fourth quarter of 1999. Net income available to
common shareholders was $2.0 million ($0.37 per common share on a diluted basis)
for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 compared with $1.6 million ($0.29 per
common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended September 30, 1999, an
increase of $431,000, or 27.2%. The Company posted returns on average common
equity of 17.18% and 14.79% and returns on average assets of 1.32% and 1.42% for
the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2000, net income available to common shareholders was
$6.0 million ($1.10 per common share on a diluted basis) compared with $4.5
million ($0.84 per common share on a diluted basis) for the same period in 1999,
an increase of $1.4 million or 31.9%.

         Total assets were $693.1 million at September 30, 2000 compared with
$608.7 million at December 31, 1999. Total loans increased to $241.1 million at
September 30, 2000 from $223.5 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of
$17.6 million, or 7.9%. Total deposits were $628.5 million at September 30, 2000
compared with $534.8 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of $93.7 million,
or 17.5%. Shareholders' equity increased $5.0 million or 11.6%, to $48.3 million
at September 30, 2000 compared with $43.3 million at December 31, 1999.

         On September 15, 2000, the Bank consummated a transaction with Compass
Bank (the "Bank") whereby the Bank purchased certain assets and assumed certain
liabilities of five Compass branches. The branches are located in El Campo,
Hitchcock, Needville, Palacios and Sweeny, Texas. The Bank assumed approximately
$87 million in deposits as a result of the transaction. With the exception of
the El Campo location, the former Compass branches are being operated as
full-service banking centers. The El Campo location has been combined with the
Bank's El Campo Banking Center.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

         Net interest income was $5.5 million for the quarter ended September
30, 2000 compared with $4.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999, an
increase of $1.1 million, or 25.0%. Net interest income increased as a result of
an increase in average interest-earning assets to $557.8 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 from $413.4 million for the quarter ended September 30,

                                       9
<PAGE>   4
1999, an increase of $144.4 million, or 34.9%. The net interest margin on a
tax-equivalent basis decreased to 4.12% from 4.26% for the same periods,
principally due to an increase in the yield on interest-bearing liabilities. Net
interest income increased $3.7 million, or 28.9%, to $16.5 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 from $12.8 million for the same period in 1999.
This increase is mainly attributable to higher average interest-earning assets
and the purchase by the Company in December 1999, of a Qualified Zone Academy
Bond ("QZAB") which generates a tax credit that is included in income.

         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
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, 2000
and 1999 and the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. 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.

(1) Yield is based on amortized cost and does not include any component of
    unrealized gains or losses.

(2) The net interest margin is equal to net interest income divided by average
    interest-earning assets.

(3) In order to make pretax income and resultant yields on tax-exempt
    investments and loans comparable to those on taxable investments and loans,
    a tax-equivalent adjustment has been computed using a federal income tax
    rate of 34%.

(4) Annualized.

         The following tables present 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 the periods indicated. For purposes of these tables, changes attributable to
both rate and volume which cannot be segregated have been allocated to rate.

Provision for Credit Losses

         Provisions for credit losses are charged to income in order to bring
the total allowance for credit losses to a level deemed appropriate by
management of the Company based on such factors as historical loan loss
experience, industry diversification of the commercial loan portfolio, the
amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral, the volume, growth and
composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect
the

                                       13
<PAGE>   8

borrower's ability to pay and the value of collateral, the evaluation of the
loan portfolio through the internal loan review process and other relevant
factors.

         The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 increased $20,000 to $225,000 from $205,000 in the corresponding period
last year. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended September
30, 2000 and September 30, 1999 was $75,000.

Noninterest Income

         The Company's primary sources of noninterest income are service charges
on deposit accounts and other banking service related fees. Noninterest income
totaled $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared with
$789,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $607,000, or 76.9%
Noninterest income increased $1.7 million, or 77.3%, to $3.9 million for the
nine month period ending September 30, 2000 from $2.2 million for the same
period in 1999. The increase in noninterest income was principally due to the
South Texas Acquisition.

categories of noninterest income:

</TABLE>

         Salaries and employee benefit expenses were $1.8 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2000 compared with $1.4 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 1999, an increase of $358,000, or 25.7%. For the nine month
period ended September 30, 2000, salaries and employee benefits totaled $5.3
million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 26.2%, from $4.2 million for the nine
month period ending September 30, 1999. The change was due primarily to an
increase in the number of employees due to the South Texas Acquisition and
regular annual employee salary increases.

         Non-staff expenses increased $874,000, or 65.2%, to $2.2 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 2000 compared with the same period in 1999. For
the nine month period ended September 30, 2000, non-staff expenses increased
$2.5 million, or 62.5%, to $6.5 million from $4.0 million for the same period in
1999. The increase was principally due to the South Texas Acquisition and the
issuance of trust preferred securities.

Income Taxes

         For the three month period ended September 30, 2000, income tax expense
increased $70,000, or 9.4%, to $816,000 from $746,000 for the same period in
1999. Income tax expense increased $302,000, or 14.3%, to $2.4 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $2.1 million for the same period in
1999. Both increases were primarily attributable to higher pretax net earnings.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         Total loans were $241.1 million at September 30, 2000, an increase of
$17.6 million, or 7.9% from $223.5 million at December 31, 1999. Loan growth
occurred primarily in commercial mortgages and home equity loans. Period end
loans comprised 44.0% of average earning assets at September 30, 2000 compared
with 49.7% at December 31, 1999.

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 credit 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, 2000, the allowance for credit losses
amounted to $3.0 million, or 1.2% of total loans, compared with $2.8 million, or
1.2% of total loans, at December 31, 1999.

         Set forth below is an analysis of the allowance for credit losses for
the periods indicated:

Nonperforming Assets

         The Company had no nonperforming assets for the periods ended September
30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. The Company generally places a
loan on nonaccrual status and ceases accruing interest when the payment of
principal or interest is 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.

          The following table presents information regarding nonperforming
assets as of the dates indicated:

</TABLE>

Securities

         Securities totaled $331.2 million at September 30, 2000 compared with
$312.7 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of $18.5 million, or 6.0%. The
increase was primarily due to acquisitions. At September 30, 2000, securities
represented 47.8% of total assets compared with 51.4% of total assets at
December 31, 1999.

Premises and Equipment

         Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $9.6
million and $9.8 million at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999,
respectively.

         Total deposits were $628.5 million at September 30, 2000 compared with
$534.8 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of $93.7 million or 17.5%. At

1999. Pursuant to the Compass Acquisition, the Company acquired $87.3 million
in deposits on September 15, 2000.


Federal Funds Purchased and Other Borrowings

         The Company had no Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances at
September 30, 2000 compared with $5.7 million in FHLB advances at December 31,
1999. The amount of FHLB advances the Company has at any given time is based on
the Company's daily liquidity position and will increase or decrease according
to the Company's funding needs. At September 30, 2000, the Company had no
federal funds purchased compared with $10.0 million in federal funds purchased
at December 31, 1999.

withdrawal requirements and shareholders' dividends. Thc Company has numerous
sources of liquidity including a significant portfolio of shorter-term assets,
marketable investment

                                       17
<PAGE>   12

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 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, 2000,
the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $80.3 million, up from $36.8
million at December 31, 1999. The increase was due to an increase in federal
funds sold.

Capital Resources

         Total shareholders' equity was $48.3 million at September 30, 2000
compared with $43.3 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of $5.0 million,
or 1.2%. The increase was primarily due to net earnings of $6.0 million, cash
dividends paid of $1.4 million, and a sale of common stock pursuant to 401(k)
plan, dividend reinvestment plan, option exercises which resulted in proceeds of
$247,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

         Both the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, with respect
to the Company, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), with
respect to the Bank, have established certain minimum risk-based capital
standards that apply to bank holding companies and federally insured banks. As
of September 30, 2000, the Company's Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based
capital and leverage capital ratios were 13.94%, 15.02% and 6.64%, respectively.
As of September 30, 2000, the Bank's risk-based capital ratios were above the

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company manages market risk, which for the Company is 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 filing of the Company's Form 10-K on March 8, 2000. See
Form 10-K, Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis and Results of
Operations-Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity".
