PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On March 18, 1997, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the "Merger Agreement") to acquire First Houston Bancshares, Inc. ("First
Houston") and its subsidiary, Houston National Bank, in a stock-for-stock
merger (the "Merger"). The Merger Agreement, which is subject to approval of
First Houston's shareholders and various banking regulatory authorities,
provides that the Company will issue approximately 1.72 million shares of the
Company's common stock to the stockholders of First Houston in exchange for all
of the issued and outstanding shares of First Houston. The final purchase price
is subject to certain closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to be
accounted for as a pooling of interests and is expected to close in the third
quarter of 1997.
The pro forma consolidated financial statements of the Company and First
Houston are presented as if the Merger had occurred on January 1, 1995, after
giving effect to the pro forma adjustments described in the notes to the pro
forma consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-QA.
