          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


                        ANALYSIS OF STATEMENT OF INCOME
                        -------------------------------


The following analysis discusses material changes in the results of operations
for the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the first quarter of 1995.  Gulf
Southwest Bancorp, Inc. recorded earnings of $1,470,000 in the first quarter of
1996.  This level of earnings represented an increase of $376,000 from the
$1,094,000 earned in the first quarter of 1995.

NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------

Net interest income increased 70.5% in the first quarter of 1996 when compared
to the same of 1995.  The increase of $2,366,000 resulted from a $3,919,000
(84.6%) increase in interest income on earning assets, partially offset by an
increase of $1,553,000 (121.7%) in interest expense.  Higher volumes of interest
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities attributable to the acquisition
of Texas Gulf Coast Bancorp, Inc. were the primary reasons for the increases.

The Company's subsidiary bank (the "Subsidiary Bank") attempts to adjust the
rates paid or earned on interest bearing liabilities and interest earning assets
to maintain a consistent net interest margin to the extent possible.

PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES
- ----------------------------------

The provision for possible loan losses increased by $80,000 for the first
quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995.   The ratio of the
allowance for possible loan loses to outstanding loans decreased to 1.00% at
March 31, 1996 from 1.38% at March 31, 1995.

The Company's Subsidiary Bank's policy is to maintain a level in the allowance
for possible loan losses that is adequate to cover the loan losses sustained
plus provide for any future possible losses on problem loans.  The adequacy of
the allowance is continually monitored and management considers the current
level to be appropriate based on an evaluation of the Subsidiary Bank's loan
portfolio.  The transactions in the allowance for possible loan losses were as
follows:

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS
- ---------------------

All loans which cause management to have doubt as to the borrower's ability to
substantially comply with present loan repayment terms are included in the
schedule of non-performing loans.

Non-performing loans consist of loans on which interest is not being accrued and
loans which are 90 days or more past due as to principal and/or interest payment
and not yet in a non-accruing status.  The policy of the Subsidiary Bank is to
continue to accrue interest on loans which are 90 days or more past due if
periodic payments are being made on the loans.  If a loan is classified as past
due and payments then resume on the loan, it continues to be classified as past
due until all past due amounts are paid.

Non-interest income increased $581,000 or 71.0% for the first quarter of 1996
over the first quarter of 1995.  This increase is primarily due to the
acquisition of Texas Gulf Coast Bancorp, Inc.

The Company maintains a policy of constantly monitoring and evaluating service
charges and fees to ensure that the fees charged reflect the cost of service
provided and remain competitive with other financial institutions located in the
Subsidiary Bank's market area.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
- --------------------

Non-interest expense increased by 89.2% for the first quarter of 1996 over the
first quarter of 1995.  The totals were as follows:

Salaries and employee benefits are the most significant operating expenses of
the Company.  These expenses increased by $1,565,000 or 126.9% for the first
quarter of 1996 as compared to the first quarter of 1995.

Furniture, equipment and occupancy expense increased by 89.0% for the first
quarter of 1996 over the first quarter of 1995.  Other operating expenses
increased by 41.8% for the first quarter of 1996 over the comparable period of
1995.  The increases in non-interest expenses are attributable to the
acquisition of Texas Gulf Coast Bancorp, Inc.

The major components of other operating expenses are legal and accounting fees,
data processing, supplies and advertising expenses.  Also included are expenses
related to real estate held for sale and other loan-related assets acquired
through foreclosure.


                           ANALYSIS OF BALANCE SHEET
                           -------------------------
                                        
EARNING ASSETS
- --------------

When comparing the total of earning assets at March 31, 1996, to the total at
December 31, 1995, earning assets decreased 2.5%.  The decrease of $11,609,000
was due to the decreases of $12,444,000 in interest bearing deposits in banks
and $7,800,000  in federal funds sold.  The decreases were partially offset by
increases of $1,100,000, $543,000 and $6,992,000 in time deposits in banks,
securities and loans, respectively.

Included in the total of earning assets at March 31, 1996 are loans totaling
$2,856,000 which are on a non-accrual status.  This compares to non-accrual
loans totaling $991,000 and $3,125,000 at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1995,
respectively.

DEPOSITS
- --------

The most important funding source for earning asset growth is deposits.  Total
deposits decreased by 2.6% from December 31,1995 to March 31, 1996, compared to
a decrease of 3.4% from December 31, 1994, to March 31, 1995.  Non-interest
bearing deposits increased 1.1% from December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996, while
interest bearing deposits decreased 4.0% for the same period.

CAPITAL
- -------

Shareholders' equity increased $374,000, or .8%, for the three months ended
March 31, 1996, as compared to an increase of 4.1% for the three months ended
March 31, 1995.  The ratio of stockholders' equity to total assets was 10.5% on
March 31, 1996, as compared to 10.1% on December 31,1995.

Bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries are required to maintain
certain capital ratios.  The Federal Reserve Board's guidelines classify capital
into two tiers, referred to as Tier 1 and Tier 2.  Tier 1 capital consists of
common and qualifying preferred shareholders' equity less goodwill.  Tier 2
capital consists of mandatory convertible debt, preferred stock not qualifying
as Tier 1, qualifying subordinated debt and the allowance for loan losses up to
1.25% of risk-weighted assets.  The minimum ratio for the sum of Tier 1 and Tier
2 to risk weighted

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
CAPITAL (CONTINUED)
- -------------------

assets is 8.0%, at least one-half of which should be in the form of Tier 1
capital.  At March 31, 1996, core capital (Tier 1) and total capital (Tier 1 and
Tier 2) as a percentage of risk-weighted assets was 18.83% and 19.78%,
respectively.  The Company's Subsidiary Bank at March 31, 1996 had core capital
of 17.11% and total capital of 18.07% as a percentage of risk weighted assets.

In addition to the foregoing ratios, bank holding companies are required to
maintain a minimum ratio of core capital to total assets (hereinafter referred
to as the "Leverage Ratio") of at least 3.0%.  At March 31, 1996, the Company's
Leverage Ratio was 10.24%.  A similar leverage ratio applicable to the Company's
Subsidiary Bank has been adopted by the FDIC.  At March 31, 1996, the Company's
Subsidiary Bank's ratio was 9.34%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS
- ---------------------------------

Liquidity is the ability of the Company and its Subsidiary Bank to meet their
short-term needs for cash arising from demands such as operating expenses,
withdrawal of deposits and demand for loans.  The liquidity of the Company is
primarily provided by dividends from the Subsidiary Bank and interest on time
deposits in financial institutions.

The Subsidiary Bank's liquidity is primarily provided by maturing loans,
deposits, cash, short-term investments, time deposits in other banks, federal
funds sold and profits.  With bank regulators critically reviewing liquidity,
the Company has adopted a policy of maintaining a minimum liquidity level of 20%
as measured by the FDIC formula, at the Subsidiary Bank.  As of March 31, 1996,
the liquidity level of the Subsidiary Bank was 44.6%.

The Company believes that both it and the Subsidiary Bank have sufficient
capital and financial resources to meet its current and anticipated capital
commitments.
