Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Cullen/Frost Bankers, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(tables in thousands)
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cullen/Frost
Bankers, Inc. ("Cullen/Frost" or the "Corporation") and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have not
been audited by independent accountants, but in the opinion of management,
reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position and results of operations. All such adjustments were of a normal and
recurring nature. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in Cullen/Frost's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The balance sheet at December
31, 1999 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date
but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Certain
reclassifications have been made to make prior periods comparable.
Note B - Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
An analysis of the transactions in the allowance for possible loan losses
is presented below. The amount charged to operating expense is based on
management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance based on estimated
probable losses in the loan portfolio.

Note C - Impaired Loans
A loan within the scope of SFAS No. 114 is considered impaired when, based
on current information and events, it is probable that Cullen/Frost will be
unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the
loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. All
impaired loans are included in non-performing assets. At June 30, 2000, the
majority of the impaired loans were real estate loans and collectibility was
measured based on the fair value of the collateral. Interest payments on
impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectibility of the
principal amount is fully assured, in which case interest is recognized on the
cash basis. No interest revenue was recognized on loans impaired as of June
30, 2000 and 1999. The total allowance for possible loan losses includes
activity related to allowances calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 114 and
activity related to other loan loss allowances determined in accordance with
SFAS No. 5.
The following is a summary of loans considered to be impaired:

</TABLE>
At June 30, 2000 and 1999, Cullen/Frost's subsidiary banks were considered
"well capitalized" as defined by the FDIC Improvement Act of 1991, the highest
rating, and Cullen/Frost's capital ratios were in excess of "well capitalized"
levels. A financial institution is deemed to be well capitalized if the
institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0 percent or greater, a
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0 percent or greater, and a Tier 1
leverage ratio of 5.0 percent or greater, and the institution is not subject to
an order, written agreement, capital directive or prompt corrective action
directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital
measure. Cullen/Frost and its subsidiary banks currently exceed all minimum
capital requirements. Management is not aware of any conditions or events the
would have changed the Corporation's capital rating since June 30, 2000.
Cullen/Frost is subject to the regulatory capital requirements
administered by the Federal Reserve Bank. Regulators can initiate certain
mandatory actions, if Cullen/Frost fails to meet the minimum requirements, that
could have a direct material effect on Cullen/Frost's financial statements.

Note G - Merger and Acquisitions
On July 1, 2000 Frost Insurance Agency ("FIA"), a subsidiary of The Frost
National Bank, acquired Nieman Hanks Puryear Partners and Nieman Hanks Puryear
Benefits ("Nieman Hanks"), an Austin based independent insurance agency.
Nieman Hanks offers property and casualty insurance, professional and umbrella
liability, homeowners and auto insurance, group health, life and disability
policies and 401(k) retirement plans and executive planning. Nieman Hanks is
the third acquisition made by Frost Insurance Agency, following the additions
of Professional Insurance Agents and Wayland Hancock mentioned below. The
purchase method of accounting was used to record the transaction and as such,
the results of operations will be included from the date of acquisition.
On May 6, 2000, United States National Bank of Galveston merged its
charter into The Frost National Bank. The Galveston-based bank has been a
member bank of Cullen/Frost since 1982.
On April 1, 2000, FIA acquired Wayland Hancock Insurance Agency, Inc.
("Wayland Hancock"), a Houston-based independent insurance agency. Wayland
Hancock offers a full range of life and health insurance, as well as retirement
and financial planning, to individuals and businesses. Wayland Hancock was
Frost Insurance Agency's second acquisition, following the 1999 acquisition of
Victoria-based Professional Insurance Agents, Inc. The purchase method of
accounting was used to record both transactions.
Note H - Accounting Changes
In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138 "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities -- an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 138 amends the accounting and reporting standards
of SFAS No. 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging
activities. During 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of
FASB Statement No. 133" which deferred the required adoption date of SFAS No.
133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" will require the recognition
of all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are
not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is
a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of
derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the
hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized
in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be
immediately recognized in earnings. Even though early adoption is allowed,
Cullen/Frost has no plans to adopt this statement prior to the effective date
for the Corporation of January 1, 2001. The impact on future results will
depend on the financial position of the Corporation and the nature and purpose
of the derivatives in use by Cullen/Frost at that time.
Note I - Operating Segments
Cullen/Frost has two reportable operating segments: Banking and the
Financial Management Group. Banking includes both commercial and consumer
banking services. Commercial services are provided to corporations and other
business clients and include a wide array of lending and cash management
products. Consumer banking includes direct and indirect loans, mortgage loans
and depository services. The Financial Management Group includes fee based
services within private trust, retirement services, and financial management
services including personal wealth management, insurance and brokerage
services. These business units were identified through the products and
services that are offered within each unit.
The accounting policies of the individual business units are the same as
the Corporation except for the following items. The Corporation uses a match-
funded transfer pricing process to assess operating segment performance.
Expenses for consolidated back-office operations are allocated to operating
segments based on estimated uses of those services. General overhead type
expenses such as executive administration, accounting, internal audit, and
personnel are allocated based on the direct expense level of the operating
segment. Income tax expense for the individual segments is calculated
basically at the statutory rate. Parent Company records the tax expense or
benefit necessary to reconcile to the consolidated total.

Results of Operations
The results of operations are included in the material that follows. All
balance sheet amounts are presented in averages unless otherwise noted. Certain
reclassifications have been made to make prior quarters comparable. Taxable-
equivalent adjustments assume a 35 percent federal income tax rate. Dollar
amounts in tables are stated in thousands, except for per share amounts.
Cullen/Frost reported net income of $27.6 million or $.52 per diluted
common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $25.2 million or
$.47 per diluted common share for the first quarter of 2000 and net income of
$24.1 million or $.44 per diluted common share for the second quarter of 1999.
Operating earnings for the quarter, which exclude an after-tax net impact from
the sale of mortgage servicing rights, were $26.7 million or $.50 per diluted
common share, a 14 percent increase from the $.44 per diluted common share
reported in the second quarter last year. Net income for the six months ended

==================== ====================
</TABLE>
The increase in Banking net income for the six months and three months
ended June 30, 2000 was due primarily to higher net interest income due to loan
growth and higher non-interest income impacted by internal growth, new business
initiatives and acquisitions. Also, contributing to the increase was the after
tax net gain from the sale of the mortgage servicing rights.
The Financial Management Group net income increased 10.6 percent on a
year-to-date comparison and 7.4 percent compared to the second quarter last
year. Most of the growth was due to Frost Investment Services, which includes
brokerage services as well as personal wealth management.
Most of the increase in the operating loss for non-banks was impacted by
expenses relating to Frost Securities Inc., a section 20 investment banking
subsidiary that began operations in August of 1999.
Net Interest Income
Net interest margin was 5.33 percent for the second quarter of 2000
compared to 5.36 percent and 5.10 percent for the first quarter of 2000 and
second quarter of 1999, respectively. The net interest spread of 4.34 percent
decreased 13 basis points from the first quarter of 2000 and increased five
basis points from the second quarter of 1999. The decreases in net interest
margin and spread from the first quarter of 2000 were due to an increased net
fed funds purchased position. The increase in net interest margin and spread
from a year ago is primarily related to strong loan growth resulting in an
improved earning asset mix.

For the second quarter 2000...
Total non-interest income was up $3.3 million or 8.2 percent compared to
the first quarter of 2000 and up $5.8 million, or 15.6 percent compared to the
second quarter of 1999. Included in this year's second quarter was a pre-tax
gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights of the existing mortgage loan
portfolio for approximately $2 million.
Trust fees were up $760 thousand or 6.5 percent compared to the first
quarter of 2000 and up $1 million or 9.0 percent compared to the second quarter
of 1999. This increase is primarily in investment fees offset by decreases in
management fees associated with some small cap value funds. The market value
of trust assets at the end of the second quarter of 2000 was $13.1 billion flat
when compared to the first quarter of 2000 and up from $12.7 billion a year
ago.
Service charges on deposit accounts for the second quarter of 2000
increased $366 thousand or 2.5 percent from the first quarter of this year and
$269 thousand or 1.9 percent from the second quarter of 1999. The increase
from the previous quarter is a result of higher overdraft charges as well as
cash management fees on commercial accounts. The increase from the same
quarter a year ago is a result of higher overdraft charges offset by lower cash
management fees on commercial accounts. The decrease in cash management fees
from the year ago quarter reflects the impact of a higher earnings rate, which
results in more payment for services through keeping balances rather than
through the payment of fees. Other service charges were up $539 thousand or
8.9 percent compared to the previous quarter and up $2.4 million or 58.2
percent from the same quarter a year ago. Revenue from Frost Securities and
insurance commission revenue were responsible for the growth in this category
of non-interest income.
Other non-interest income increased $1.6 million or 21.2 percent when
compared to the previous quarter this year and $2.1 million or 29.2 percent
when compared to the second quarter a year ago. This higher income resulted
primarily from the $2 million non-recurring pre-tax gain from the sale of the
mortgage servicing rights.
For the six months ended June 30, 2000...
Non-interest income was up $7.8 million or 10.5 percent compared to the
same period last year. Trust income increased $1.3 million or 5.8 percent from
the same period a year ago, primarily in investment and oil and gas fees offset
by decreases in management fees associated with some small cap value funds.
Service charges on deposits increased $680 thousand or 2.4 percent compared to
the same period one year ago. This increase is due to higher overdraft charges
offset by lower cash management fees on commercial accounts and lower NSF
charges. The decrease in cash management fees from the same period a year ago
ago reflects the impact of a higher earnings rate, which results in more
payment for services through keeping balances rather than through the payment
of fees. Other service charge income increased $5.3 million or 71.8 percent
from the same period last year. Primary contributors to this growth were
insurance commission income, revenues from Frost Securities and mutual fund
fees. Other income was up $483 thousand or 3.0 percent compared to the same
period last year. This resulted from visa check card income and annuity income
offset by lower gains on the sale of student loans.
Non-Interest Expense
Higher non-interest expense resulted primarily from higher personnel and
operating expenses in response to higher volumes, new business initiatives such
as Frost Securities and Frost Insurance Agency, and market increases in
salaries and wages.

For the second quarter 2000...
Non-interest expense was up $1.7 million or 2 percent compared to last
quarter and increased $7.4 million or 10.5 percent compared to the second
quarter of 1999.
Salaries and wages increased $1.2 million compared with the first quarter
of 2000 and were up $4.7 million or 15.8 percent from the second quarter of
1999. These increases were related to the new business initiatives and market
increases in salaries and wages. Also impacting the second quarter were
approximately $600 thousand in severance costs, related to the sale of the
mortgage servicing rights and the initiation of the co-branding mortgage
origination program with GMAC Mortgage Corporation. Pension and employee
benefits were down $879 thousand or 10.9 percent compared to last quarter and
up $595 thousand or 9.0 percent compared to the second quarter of 1999. The
decrease from the previous quarter was a result of lower payroll taxes and
medical expenses. The increase from a year ago is due to higher payroll taxes
and bank contributions to the 401(k) stock plan.
Net occupancy of banking premises expense remained flat with the first
quarter of 2000 and the second quarter of 1999. Furniture and equipment
expense increased $153 thousand or 3 percent and $235 thousand or 4.7 percent
from the first quarter of 2000 and the second quarter last year, respectively.
The increases were primarily due to higher software maintenance and service
contracts costs.
Other non-interest expenses increased $1.3 million or 6.6 percent and $1.5
million or 8.2 percent compared to the first quarter of 2000 and second quarter
of 1999, respectively. The increase from the previous quarter is related to
higher stationery, printing and supplies expenses, education expenses and
sundry losses. The increase from a year ago is primarily due to higher
professional expenses and sundry losses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2000...
Total non-interest expense was up $14.2 million or 10.2 percent compared
to the same period one year ago. Salaries and wages were up $8.8 million or 15
percent compared to the same period a year ago primarily because of the new
business initiatives and market increases. Severance costs of almost $600
thousand impacted the first half of 2000 as a result of the sale of the
mortgage servicing rights and the initiation of the co-branding mortgage
origination program. Pension and other benefits increased $2.1 million or 16.3
percent from the same period last year due to higher payroll taxes, medical
insurance costs and bank contributions to the 401(k) stock plan. Net occupancy
of banking premises was constant compared to a year ago. Furniture and
equipment expense increased $726 thousand or 7.6 percent due to higher
amortized software and software maintenance and service contracts costs.
Intangible amortization increased $883 thousand or 12.8 percent from the same
period a year ago due to acquisitions. Other non-interest expenses increased
$1.5 million or 4.0 percent, primarily due to higher professional expenses
offset by lower stationery, printing and supplies expenses.
Income Taxes
Cullen/Frost's effective tax rate for the first and second quarters of
2000 approximated 35 percent. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of
1999 approximated 34 percent.
Cash Earnings
The Corporation has historically paid cash and used the purchase method of
accounting for the majority of its acquisitions, which has resulted in the
creation of intangible assets. These intangible assets are deducted from
capital in the determination of regulatory capital. Thus, "cash" or "tangible"
earnings represents regulatory capital generated during the year and can be
viewed as net income excluding intangible amortization, net of tax. While the
definition of "cash" or "tangible" earnings may vary by company, we believe
this definition is appropriate as it measures the per share growth of
regulatory capital, which impacts the amount available for dividends and
acquisitions.
The following table reconciles reported earnings to net income excluding
intangible amortization ("cash" earnings):

At June 30, 1999 period-end loans totaled $4.4 billion up 13.5 percent on
an annualized basis from the previous quarter and up 11.4 percent from the same
period last year. Most of the increase in loans is attributable to real estate
up $142 million and commercial and industrial up $138 million from year-end
1999. This increase is partially offset by a $56 million decrease in consumer
loans related to the continued run-off of indirect auto loans.
Real Estate Loans
Real estate loans at June 30, 2000, were $2.1 billion or 47.9 percent of
period-end loans compared to 48 percent a year ago. Residential permanent
mortgage loans at June 30, 2000, were $717 million compared to $695 million at
March 31, 2000, and $671 million at June 30, 1999. Real estate loans
classified as "other" are essentially amortizing commercial and industrial
loans with maturities of less than five years secured by real property. The
majority of all commercial real estate loans are owner occupied or have a major
tenant (National or Regional company). Historically these type of loans have
resulted in lower risk and provided financial stability and are less
susceptible to economic swings.
At June 30, 2000, real estate loans 90 days past due (excluding non-
accrual loans) were $2.4 million, compared with $2.0 million at March 31, 2000,
and $2.7 million at June 30, 1999.

and $48.4 million at June 30, 1999. The decrease from last quarter and the

As a percentage of total
non-performing assets 42.4% 57.6% 100.0%
Non-performing assets totaled $16.0 million at June 30, 2000 down 1.4
percent from $16.2 million at June 30, 1999 and down 11 percent from $18.0
million at March 31, 2000. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total
loans and foreclosed assets decreased to .36 percent at June 30, 2000 from .41
percent one year ago.
Foreclosed assets consist of property which has been formally repossessed.
Foreclosed assets are valued at the lower of the loan balance or estimated fair
value, less estimated selling costs, at the time of foreclosure. Write-downs
occurring at foreclosure are charged against the allowance for possible loan
losses. On an ongoing basis, properties are appraised as required by market
indications and applicable regulations. Write-downs are provided for
subsequent declines in value. Expenses related to maintaining foreclosed
properties are included in other non-interest expense.
The after-tax impact (assuming a 35 percent marginal tax rate) of lost
interest from non-performing assets was $325 thousand for the second quarter of
2000, compared to approximately $217 thousand for the second quarter of 1999
and $271 thousand for the first quarter of 2000. For the six months ended June
30, 2000, the after-tax impact (assuming a 35 percent marginal tax rate) was
approximately $596 thousand compared with approximately $467 thousand for the
comparable period last year. Total loans 90 days past due (excluding non-
accrual loans) were $5.8 million at June 30, 2000, compared to $5.6 million at
June 30, 1999, and $6.3 million at March 31, 2000.
Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
The allowance for possible loan losses was $59 million or 1.33 percent of
period-end loans at June 30, 2000, compared to $59 million or 1.48 percent at
June 30, 1999 and $58.5 million or 1.37 percent at March 31, 2000. The
allowance for possible loan losses as a percentage of non-accrual loans was 453
percent at June 30, 2000, compared to 454 percent at June 30, 1999 and 401
percent at the end of the first quarter of 2000.
Cullen/Frost recorded a $2.9 million provision for possible loan losses
during the second quarter of 2000. This compares to $3 million provision for
possible loan losses during the second quarter of 1999 and $2.7 million for the
first quarter of 2000. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2000 totaled
$2.4 million, compared to net charge-offs of $624 thousand and $2.6 million for
the second quarter of 1999 and for the first quarter of 2000, respectively.
The net charge-offs in the second quarter of 1999 were low on a comparative
basis due to a large recovery last year.

Capital and Liquidity
At June 30, 2000, shareholders' equity was $525 million compared to $510
million at June 30, 1999 and $511 million at March 31, 2000. Activity in the
shareholders equity account during 2000 includes $19.4 million of dividends
paid and $22.2 million paid for the repurchase of shares of Cullen/Frost,
offset by earnings growth. In addition, Cullen/Frost had an unrealized loss on
securities available for sale, net of deferred taxes, of $37.9 million as of
June 30, 2000 compared to an unrealized loss of $39.1 million as of December
31, 1999 which had the effect of increasing shareholder's equity by $1.2
million. Currently, under regulatory requirements, the unrealized gain or loss
on securities available for sale is not included in the calculation of risk-
based capital and leverage ratios. See page seven for a discussion of the
Corporation's regulatory capital ratios.
The Cullen/Frost board of directors raised the cash dividend 11 percent in
the second quarter of 2000 to $.195 per common share compared to $.175 per
common share in the first quarter of 2000 and second quarter of 1999. This
equates to a dividend payout ratio of 36.8 percent and 36.7 percent for the
second and first quarters of 2000, respectively. The dividend payout ratio for
the second quarter of 1999 was 38.9 percent.
Funding sources available at the holding company level include a $7.5
million short-term line of credit. There were no borrowings outstanding from
this source at June 30, 2000 or 1999.
Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily
marketable or pledgeable or which will mature in the near future. Liquid
assets include cash, short-term time deposits in banks, securities available
for sale, maturities and cash flow from securities held to maturity, and
Federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements.
Liability liquidity is provided by access to funding sources which include
core depositors and correspondent banks in Cullen/Frost's natural trade area
which maintain accounts with and sell Federal funds to subsidiary banks of the
Corporation, as well as Federal funds purchased and securities sold under
repurchase agreements from upstream banks. The liquidity position of
Cullen/Frost is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to the balance
between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate.
Financial Modernization Legislation
On November 12, 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 ("Modernization
Act") was signed into law. The Modernization Act: (i) allows bank holding
companies meeting management, capital and CRA standards, and receiving the
prior approval of the Federal Reserve, to engage in a substantially broader
range of financial activities and activities incidental to financial activities
than was previously permissible, including insurance underwriting and making
merchant banking investments in commercial and financial companies; (ii) allows
insurers and other financial services companies to acquire banks; (iii) removes
various restrictions that previously applied to bank holding company ownership
of securities firms and mutual fund advisory companies; and (iv) established
the overall regulatory structure applicable to bank holding companies that also
engage in insurance and securities operations. Bank holding companies approved
for the broader range of activities are called "financial holding companies".
This part of the Modernization Act became effective on March 11, 2000.
Cullen/Frost was designated a financial holding company under the Modernization
Act effective March 15, 2000.
The Modernization Act also modified laws related to financial privacy and
community reinvestment. The new financial privacy provisions generally
prohibit financial institutions, including Cullen/Frost, from disclosing
nonpublic personal financial information to third parties unless customers have
the opportunity to "opt out" of the disclosure.
Forward-Looking Statements
Cullen/Frost may from time to time make forward-looking statements (within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) with
respect to earnings per share, credit quality, corporate objectives and other
financial and business matters. The Corporation cautions the reader that these
forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and
uncertainties, including economic conditions, actions taken by the Federal
Reserve Board, legislative and regulatory actions and reforms, competition, as
well as other reasons, all of which change over time. Actual results may
differ materially from forward-looking statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
There has been no material change in the market risks faced by the Company
