            NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            ----------------------------------------------------

1.    The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Mississippi Valley Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Southwest Bank of St. Louis (the "Bank").  Significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are
not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year.  In
the opinion of management, the information contained herein reflects all
adjustments necessary to make the results of operations for the interim
periods a fair statement of such operations.  All such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature.

2.    Interest-Rate Risk Management - The Company sometimes uses various
interest rate related contracts, such as futures and options, to manage its
overall interest rate risk exposure for asset-liability management purposes.
When such contracts are not matched against a specifically designated group
of assets or liabilities and are held for trading purposes, the gains or
losses from the change in the market values of such contracts are recognized
in current income and are reported in other income.

      The Company's objective in managing interest-rate risk is to maintain a
balanced mix of interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities
over a designated time horizon.  The extent of interest rate sensitivity can
vary within intervening time periods, depending on current business
conditions and management's interest rate outlook.  The principal objective
of the Bank's asset-liability management activities is to provide maximum
levels of net interest income while maintaining acceptable levels of interest
rate and liquidity risk while facilitating the funding needs of the Bank.  To
achieve that objective, the Bank uses various derivative financial
instruments.

      During the first quarter of 1996 the Bank purchased $145 million of
interest rate swap contracts as part of its asset-liability management
strategy to manage interest rate risk.  The contracts, which require the Bank
to pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a variable rate of interest from
the seller of the contract, are accounted for as modifications of the
interest rate characteristics of certain bank assets.  The Bank had been in a
liability sensitive position prior to the affect of these swap contracts.

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

      The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
attached condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and
with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the
year ended December 31, 1995.


SUMMARY OF EARNINGS
- -------------------

      Consolidated net income for the third quarter of 1996 was $3,667,000,
up $733,000 or 25.0% from the $2,934,000 earned during the third quarter of
1995.  On a per share basis, net income was $.76, up 24.6% from $.61 in the
same period of the prior year.  The improved performance resulted from higher
net interest income.  Offsetting a large portion of the net interest income
increase was a higher provision for possible loan losses, reduced noninterest
income and higher overhead expenses.

      Net income for the first nine months of 1996 was $10,464,000, up
$2,465,000 or 30.8% from $7,999,000 earned for the first nine months of 1995.
On a per share basis, net income was $2.17, up 29.9% from $1.67 in the first
nine months of 1995.  Increased net interest income was principally
responsible for the improved earnings.  The provision for possible loan
losses and total noninterest expenses were also up from the prior year and
offset a portion of the net interest income increase.


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

      The following discussion and tables set forth the composition of
average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities along with
accompanying interest income, expense, yields and rates, on a tax-equivalent
basis.  The tax-equivalent adjustments were approximately $62,000, $68,000,
$186,000 and $208,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
and for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Net
interest income on a tax equivalent basis, divided by average
interest-earning assets, represents the Company's net interest margin.


Three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
- ----------------------------------------------

      Total tax-equivalent interest income for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 was $20,596,000, up $2,373,000 as compared to the same
period in 1995.  The $107 million increase in the volume of average loans
outstanding was primarily responsible for the increased interest income.
Most assets showed small declines in yields compared to the prior year except
for an increase related to taxable held to maturity securities.  Overall
asset yields improved slightly to 8.18% in the third quarter of 1996 from
8.12% in the same period last year.  The expanded asset

                                    8

base was funded with increased money market deposit accounts and time deposits
of less than $100,000.

      Total interest expense for the third quarter of 1996 was $10,599,000,
up only $9,000 from the same period in 1995.  The impact of the volume
increase in total interest bearing liabilities of $99 million was almost
totally offset by the lower rates paid on total interest bearing liabilities.
Overall rates paid on interest bearing liabilities were 4.81% in the third
quarter of 1996, down markedly from 5.40% in the same period in 1995.  During
the last half of 1995 the Bank paid premium rates on money market accounts as
a part of its deposit promotion activity coinciding with the opening of its
newest branch.  No such activities took place this year, and therefore, the
Bank lowered its rates paid on total money market accounts from 5.61% in 1995
to 4.15% in 1996.

      Overall tax-equivalent net interest income increased $2,364,000 as
interest income rose $2.4 million and interest expense experienced almost no
change.  The Company's net interest margin rose to 3.97% in the third quarter
of 1996 from 3.41% in the same period in 1995 primarily as a result of the
decline in rates paid on interest bearing liabilities discussed above.


Nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
- ---------------------------------------------

      Total tax-equivalent interest income for the first nine months of 1996
was $59,279,000, up $8,169,000 from $51,110,000 in the same period in 1995.
The $84 million increase in average loans and $67 million increase in
securities volume were primarily responsible for generating the increase in
interest earnings from 1995 to 1996.  Offsetting a portion of the increased
earnings were the reduced yields earned on loans in 1996.  Overall earning
asset yields were 8.21% for the first nine months of 1996, down from 8.41%
for the same period in 1995.

      Total interest expense for the first nine months of 1996 was
$30,102,000, up $2,948,000 from $27,154,000 in the same period in 1995.  An
increase of $147 million in money market deposit accounts was primarily
responsible for the increased interest expense.  Offsetting some of the
effects of additional money market deposits were reduced short-term
borrowings and the lower rates paid on most fund sources except certificates
of deposit.  Overall rates paid on total interest bearing liabilities
declined to 4.78% from 5.17% in the first nine months of 1995.

      In summary, total tax-equivalent net interest income increased
$5,221,000 as interest income improved by $8.2 million and interest expense
rose $2.9 million.  The Company's net interest margin for the first nine
months was 4.04%, up slightly from 3.94% in the same period in 1995.

   The following table indicates, on a tax-equivalent basis, the changes in
interest income and interest expense which are attributable to changes in
average volume and changes in average rates, in comparison with the same
period in the preceding  year.   The change in interest due to the combined
rate-volume variance has been allocated to rate and volume changes in

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

   The provision for possible loan losses for the third quarter of 1996 was
$950,000, up from $560,000 last year. Increased loans and net charge-offs
necessitated a greater provision expense for the period.  For the first nine
months of 1996 the provision for possible loan losses was $2,900,000, also up
from the same period last year. The annualized ratio of net charge-offs to
average loans for the first nine months of 1996 rose to .32% from .18% last
year, as corresponding net charge-offs were $1,613,000 and $796,000,
respectively.

   The allowance for possible loan losses was $12.1 million or 1.71% of loans
outstanding at September 30, 1996.  This compares to $10.8 million or 1.73%
at the end of 1995 and $10.8 million or 1.84% at September 30, 1995. In
management's judgement, the allowance for possible loan losses is considered
adequate to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio.

   The following table summarizes, for the periods indicated, activity in
the allowance for possible loan losses:

NONINTEREST INCOME
- ------------------

     For the third quarter of 1996 total noninterest income was $1,131,000,
down sharply from $1,720,000 in the same period in 1995. Net gains of
$844,000 were realized on securities sales in the third quarter of 1995
while the same quarter this year had no securities sales. Included in 1995
were losses of $7,000 on the sale of $2 million of Held to Maturity U.S.
Government securities sold within three months of the securities'
scheduled maturities. Gains of $851,000 were realized on the sale of
$15 million of U.S. Government securities classified Available for Sale.
Offsetting a portion of the lack of securities gains in the third
quarter of 1996 were higher trading profits and commissions and greater
credit card merchant fees.

     For the first nine months of 1996 total noninterest income was $3,678,000,
up $427,000 from $3,251,000 in the first nine months of 1995. Net gains of
$441,000 were realized on securities sales in the first nine months of
1996 compared with securities gains of $753,000 in the same period of 1995.
Increased noninterest income was generated from a combination of greater
service charges on deposits, higher trading profits and commissions and
other customer fees and charges.


NONINTEREST EXPENSE
- -------------------

      Total noninterest expense for the third quarter of 1996 was $4,491,000,
up $517,000 from $3,974,000 in the same period in 1995. For the first nine
months of 1996 total noninterest expenses were $13,534,000, up
$1,318,000, from $12,216,000 in the same period in 1995. Greater
personnel and benefit costs, and some accompanying expenses such as
occupancy and equipment costs associated with the Concord Village office
opened in June, 1995, were responsible for the increase in total overhead
costs.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AND RESOURCES
- --------------------------------

      As of September 30, 1996, the Company's total shareholders' equity was
$75.1 million.  New capital was provided by the Company's net earnings and
the exercise of stock options.  Offsetting the Company's capital accumulation
were the payments of cash dividends on preferred and common stock and
unrealized losses, net of tax, on available for sale securities.

      The analysis of capital is dependent upon a number of factors including
asset quality, earnings strength, liquidity, economic conditions and
combinations thereof.  The two primary criteria currently in effect are the
risk-based capital guidelines and the minimum capital to total assets or
leverage ratio requirement.

      These regulatory guidelines require that Tier 1 capital equal or exceed
4.00% of risk-weighted assets, and that the risk-based total capital ratio
equal or exceed 8.00%.  As of September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 the
Company's Tier 1 capital was 10.51% and 10.30% of risk-weighted assets, and
total risk-based capital was 11.76% and 11.64% of risk-weighted assets,
respectively.

      The minimum acceptable ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets, or
leverage ratio, has been established at 3.00%.  As of September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, the Company's leverage ratio was 7.23% and 6.70%,
respectively.

      Management believes that a strong capital position provided by a mix of
equity and long-term debt is essential.  It provides safety and security for
depositors, and enhances Company value for shareholders by providing
opportunities for growth with the selective use of leverage.
