                  SOUTHSIDE BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of Presentation

The consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flow for the
nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 are unaudited; in the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
such financial statements have been included.  Such adjustments consisted only
of normal recurring items.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.  These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's
latest report on Form 10-K.


2.  Earnings Per Share

All per share data has been adjusted to give retroactive recognition to the
effect of stock dividends.  As of September 30, 1995 and 1994, the number of
shares used to calculate earnings per share was 3,083,511 and 3,104,553,
respectively.


3.  Loans.

The Company adopted FAS114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,"
on January 1, 1995.  Under the new standard, a loan is considered impaired,
based on current information and events, if it is probable that the Company
will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when
due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  The measurement
of impaired loans is generally based on the present value of expected future
cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate, except that
all collateral-dependent loans are measured for impairment based on the fair
value of the collateral.  The adoption of FAS114 resulted in no additional
provision for credit losses.

Loans, including impaired loans, are placed on nonaccrual when principal or
interest is past due 90 days or more unless, in the determination of
management, the principal and interest on the loan are well collateralized and
in the process of collection.  In addition, a loan is placed on nonaccrual
when, in the opinion of management, the future collectibility of interest and
principal is in serious doubt.  When classified as nonaccrual, accrued interest
receivable on the loan is reversed and the future accrual of interest is
suspended.  Payments of contractual interest is recognized as income only to
the extent that full recovery of the principal balance of the loan is
reasonably certain.

At September 30, 1995, the recorded investment in loans (primarily nonaccrual
loans) for which impairment has been recognized in accordance with FAS114
totaled $1,348,000 with a corresponding valuation allowance of $394,000.  For
the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the average recorded investment in
impaired loans was approximately $1,355,000.  During the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, the amount of interest income reversed on impaired loans
placed on nonaccrual and the amount of interest income subsequently recognized
on the cash basis was not material.

In prior years, the Company classified certain loans meeting the in-substance
foreclosure criteria as Other Real Estate Owned (OREO).  Upon the adoption of
FAS114, the Company reclassified in-substance foreclosed assets that were not
in its possession to loans.  Prior periods have been reclassified for
comparative purposes.

During the second quarter of 1995, the Company reduced its reserve for loan
losses by $300,000.  As reflected in the chart below, the bank realized
significant recoveries primarily in the second quarter on loans previously
charged off or placed in nonearning assets.

The following is a summary of the Reserve for Loan Losses for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 (in thousands):

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Quarter and nine months ended September 30,
          1995 compared to September 30, 1994.

The following is a discussion of the consolidated financial condition, changes
in financial condition, and results of operations of Southside Bancshares, Inc.
(the "Company"), and should be read and reviewed in conjunction with the
financial statements, and the notes thereto, in this presentation and in the
Company's latest report on Form 10-K.

The Company reported an increase in net income for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1995 compared to the same period in 1994.  Net income for
the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $1,134,000 and
$3,344,000, as compared to $1,079,000 and $2,494,000 for the same period in
1994.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995
was $4,224,000 and $12,491,000, an increase of $45,000 and $903,000 or 1.1% and
7.8%, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 1994.  The net
interest spread increased from 3.5% to 3.6% from September 30, 1994 to
September 30, 1995.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, Average Loans, funded
primarily by average deposit growth, increased $9,170,000 or 4.7%, compared to
the same period in 1994.  The average yield on loans increased from 8.4% at
September 30, 1994 to 9.0% at September 30, 1995 reflecting the higher average
overall interest rates.

Average Securities increased $2,127,000 or 1.3% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 when compared to 1994.  The overall yield on Average
Securities increased to 6.1% during the nine months ended September 30, 1995,
up from 5.3% during the same period in 1994 as a result of the higher overall
average interest rates.  The net result during the first nine months of 1995
was an increase in interest income from Securities of $1,095,000 or 17.1%
compared to the same period in 1994 as a direct result of higher average
overall yields.

Interest income from federal funds and other interest earning assets increased
$68,000 or 14.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 when compared to
1994.  During this time the average balance decreased 19.2% and the yield
increased from 4.2% in 1994 to 5.9% in 1995.  The change is primarily a result
of an average overall increase in the yield on Federal Funds Sold.

Total interest expense increased $1,762,000 or 23.1% to $9,402,000 during the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to $7,640,000 during the same
period in 1994.  The increase was attributable to higher average interest rates
along with an increase in Average Interest Bearing Liabilities of $3,421,000 or
1.1%.  The average rate of interest bearing liabilities increased to 4.1% in
1995 from 3.4% in 1994.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $897,000 and $2,907,000 for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1995 compared to $903,000 and $2,737,000 for the same
period in 1994.  A $219,000 increase in gains on sales of securities available
for sale, occurring primarily during the second quarter of 1995, accounted for
most of the change when comparing the nine month periods.  Sales of securities
available for sale were the result of changes in economic conditions and a
change in the mix of the securities portfolio.

Other noninterest income decreased $50,000 and $110,000 for the quarter and
nine months ended September 30, 1995 due to decreases in income from other real
estate owned and other recoveries.  The number of OREO properties on the
Company's books has continued to decrease and some properties were sold at a
gain during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1994.

The market value of the entire securities portfolio at September 30, 1995 was
$161,427,000 with a net unrealized gain on that date of $1,613,000.  The net
unrealized gain is comprised of $2,103,000 in unrealized gains and $490,000 in
unrealized losses.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $3,546,000 and $11,037,000 for the quarter and nine
months ended


                                       9
<PAGE>   11
September 30, 1995, compared to $3,509,000 and $10,702,000 for the same period
of 1994, representing an increase of $37,000 and $335,000 for the respective
periods.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $256,000 or 4.1% during the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 when compared to the same period in 1994.
Increased direct salary and retirement expense due to additional personnel
accounted for most of this change.

Net occupancy expense increased $213,000 or 21.1% during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 when compared to the same period in 1994.  The opening of
the new motor bank facility and the operations annex during the fourth quarter
of 1994 contributed to the increase.

FDIC insurance decreased $223,000 and $190,000 or 110.4% and 32.3% for the
quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995 compared to the same periods
of 1994.  During August 1995, the FDIC announced a decrease in the insurance
premiums from .23 per hundred dollar of deposits insured to .04 per hundred
dollar insured effective June 1, 1995.  As a result, Southside Bank received a
refund of $230,000 in September 1995.

Advertising, travel and entertainment expense was $241,000 and $653,000 for the
quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995, compared to $171,000 and
$557,000 for the same period of 1994, representing an increase of $70,000 and
$96,000 or 40.9% and 17.2%.  Increases in direct advertising and donations
accounted for most of this change for the quarter and nine months.

Other expense was $549,000 and $1,543,000 for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1995, an increase for the quarter of $126,000 and a decrease of
$72,000 for the nine month period.  Professional fees have increased as a
result of the Company opting to outsource various functions such as compliance,
internal audit and computer programming rather than increasing personnel.  Also
contributing to the increase for the quarter was an increase in net OREO
expenses due to OREO gains realized during the third quarter of 1994.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for tax expense ratio for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 was 28.3% compared to 26.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
The increased income tax expense is a result of higher pre-tax income with
relatively little change in tax-free income for the nine months ended September
30, 1995 compared to September 30, 1994.

Capital Resources

Total shareholders' equity for the Company at September 30, 1995, of
$31,402,000 was up 14.1% or $3,878,000 from December 31, 1994, and represented
7.3% of total assets versus 6.5% at December 31, 1994.  Items increasing
shareholders' equity during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were net
income of $3,344,000, common stock issued through dividend reinvestment of
$147,000 and $1,239,000 in net unrealized gains on securities available for
sale.  Decreases to shareholders' equity consisted of $585,000 in dividends
paid to shareholders during the second quarter and the purchase of 26,339
shares of treasury stock for $267,000.  During the third quarter of 1995, the
Company issued a 5% stock dividend, which had no effect on Total Shareholders'
Equity.

The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank
holding companies.  As of September 30, 1995, the minimum ratio of capital to
risk-adjusted assets (including certain off-balance sheet items, such as
standby letters of credit) was 8%.  At least half of the total capital must be
comprised of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of perpetual
preferred stock, after subtracting goodwill and certain other adjustments
("Tier 1 capital").  The remainder may consist





                                       10
<PAGE>   12
of perpetual debt, mandatory convertible debt securities, a limited amount of
subordinated debt, other preferred stock and a limited amount of loan loss
reserves ("Tier 2 capital").  The maximum amount of supplementary capital
elements that qualifies as Tier 2 capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 capital
net of goodwill.  The Federal Reserve Board also has adopted a minimum leverage
ratio (Tier 1 capital to average total assets) of 3% for bank holding companies
that meet certain specified criteria.  The rule indicates that the minimum
leverage ratio should be at least 1.0% to 2.0% higher for holding companies
that do not have the highest rating or that are undertaking major expansion
programs.  The Company's state chartered banking subsidiary is subject to
similar capital and risk-based capital requirements adopted by the FDIC and
Texas Banking Department, respectively.  The leverage capital requirement
adopted by the Texas Banking Department is 6%.  At September 30, 1995, the
Company and Southside Bank exceeded all regulatory minimum capital ratios.

It is management's intention to maintain the Company's capital at a level
acceptable to all regulatory authorities and future dividend payments will be
determined accordingly.  Regulatory authorities require that any dividend
payments made by either the Company or Southside Bank not exceed earnings for
that year.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

The primary functions of asset/liability management are to assure adequate
liquidity and maintain an appropriate balance between interest sensitive
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  Liquidity management involves
the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either
depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers needing funds to meet their
credit needs.  Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to avoid fluctuating
net interest margins and to enhance consistent growth of new interest income
through periods of changing interest rates.  Through this process, market value
volatility is also a key consideration.

Cash, Interest Earning Deposits, Federal Funds Sold and short-term investments
with maturities or repricing characteristics of one year or less are the
principal sources of asset liquidity.  At September 30, 1995, these investments
were 23.8% of Total Assets.  Historically, the overall liquidity of the Company
has been enhanced by a significant aggregate amount of core deposits and by the
lack of dependence on public fund deposits.

Composition of Loans

The Company's main objective is to seek attractive lending opportunities in
Smith County, Texas and adjoining counties.  Total Average Loans increased
$9,170,000 or 4.7% from the nine months ended September 30, 1994 to September
30, 1995.  The majority of the increase is in Real Estate Loans and Loans to
Individuals which have increased due to expanded mortgage loan products,
favorable real estate market conditions and additional penetration achieved
with the new branch locations in the Company's market area.

Loan Loss Experience and Reserve for Loan Losses

For the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995, loan
charge-offs were $228,000 and $458,000 and recoveries were $57,000 and
$875,000, respectively, resulting in net charge-offs of $171,000 and net
recoveries of $417,000 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30,
1995.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, loan charge-offs exceeded
recoveries by $74,000.  During the second quarter of 1995, the Company reduced
its reserve for loan losses by $300,000.  This was due to the significant
recoveries realized during the quarter and based on the Company's review of the
loan loss reserve.





                                       11
<PAGE>   13
The loan loss reserve is based on the most current review of the loan portfolio
at that time.  An internal loan review officer of the Company is responsible
for an ongoing review of Southside Bank's entire loan portfolio with specific
goals set for the volume of loans to be reviewed on an annual basis.

A list of loans which are graded as having more than the normal degree of risk
associated with them are maintained by the internal loan review officer.  This
list is updated on a periodic basis but no less than quarterly by the servicing
officer in order to properly allocate necessary reserves and keep management
informed on the status of attempts to correct the deficiencies noted in the
credit.

While management is aware of certain risk factors within segments of the loan
portfolio, reserve allocations have been made on an individual loan basis.  An
additional reserve is maintained on the remainder of the portfolio of at risk
loans that is based on tracking of the Company's loan losses on loans that have
not been previously identified as problems.

Effective January 1, 1995, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan" (FAS114).  This standard requires that impaired loans within the
scope of this statement be measured based on the present value of expected
future cash flows.  In October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118 which amends FAS114
to allow creditors to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on
an impaired loan.  The impact of these statements did not result in any
additional provisions for loan losses or changes in earnings.

Nonperforming Assets

The categories of nonperforming assets consist of delinquent loans over 90 days
past due, nonaccrual and restructured loans, other real estate owned and
repossessed assets.  Delinquent loans over 90 days past due represent loans for
which the payment of principal or interest has not been received in a timely
manner.  The full collection of both the principal and interest is still
expected but is being withheld due to negotiation or other items expected to be
resolved in the near future.  Generally, a loan is categorized as nonaccrual
when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more, unless, in the
determination of management, the principal and interest on the loan are well
secured and in the process of collection.  In addition, a loan is placed on
nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, the future collectibility of
interest and principal is in serious doubt.  When a loan is categorized as
nonaccrual, the accrual of interest is discontinued and any remaining accrued
interest is reversed in that period; thereafter, interest income is recorded
only when actually received.  Restructured loans represent loans which have
been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal
because of deterioration in the financial position of the borrowers.
Categorization of a loan as nonperforming is not in itself a reliable indicator
of potential loan loss.  Other factors, such as the value of collateral
securing the loan and the financial condition of the borrower must be
considered in judgements as to potential loan loss.

OREO represents real estate taken in full or partial satisfaction of debts
previously contracted.  Previously included in the appropriate categories of
nonperforming assets were loans meeting the in-substance foreclosure criteria.
As a result of the adoption of FAS114, the Company reclassified in-substance
foreclosed assets in these categories to loans.  The OREO consists of primarily
raw land and oil and gas interests.  The Company is actively marketing all
properties and none are being held for investment purposes.

Total nonperforming assets at September 30, 1995 were $2,401,000, down $714,000
or 22.9% from $3,115,000 at September 30, 1994.  The balance of OREO at
September 30, 1995 decreased $191,000 or 41.2% since September 30, 1994 as a
result of sales.  From September 30, 1994 to September 30, 1995 nonaccrual
loans decreased $337,000 or 20% and restructured loans decreased $363,000 or
51.3%.

Expansion

The Company's new South Broadway branch opened on April 24, 1995.  Construction
began during the third quarter of 1995 on the expansion of the North Tyler
branch motor bank facility.  Remodeling and expansion of the main bank
facilities on South Beckham is also currently in the planning phase.
