1.   CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements are unaudited and
include the accounts of First State Bancorporation (the "Company") and its
subsidiary, First State Bank of Taos (100% owned).

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Information contained in the consolidated condensed financial statements and
notes thereto of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.

The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normally recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
1998.

2.   EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128).  SFAS
128 requires the computation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings
per share.  Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to
common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period (the denominator).  Diluted earnings per
share is calculated by increasing the basic earning per share denominator by
the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if
dilutive potential common shares for options, warrants, and convertible
securities had been issued, and increasing the basic earnings per share
numerator by the after tax amount of interest and amortization associated with
the convertible debentures.  SFAS 128 is effective for years ended after
December 15, 1997, and is required to be applied retroactively upon adoption.
All previous periods have been restated to conform to the requirements of SFAS
128.  The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of
basic and diluted earnings per share.

3.    CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

On April 28, 1998, the Company notified the holders of its 7.5% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 2017 that the Debentures would be called for
redemption at 100% of the original principal plus accrued interest on May 29,
1998. The Indenture allowed management to redeem the Debentures at par when the
Company's common stock closed at 140% of the exercise price ($16.75) for 30
consecutive trading days.  As of April 24, 1998 this condition was met. All of
the debenture holders exercised the conversion privilege resulting in 823,869
shares of common stock being issued and $12.8 million being added to common
equity.

4.    REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
(SFAS 130). SFAS No. 130 requires disclosure in the financial statements of
comprehensive income that encompasses earnings and those items currently
required to be reported directly in the equity section of the balance sheet,
such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities.
Management has adopted the provisions of SFAS 130 effective January 1, 1998.
The following table shows comprehensive income for the three and nine months
ended September 30:

5.   ACCOUNTING STANDARD ISSUED NOT YET IMPLEMENTED

       DISCLOSURE ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" (SFAS
131).  SFAS 131 requires disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related
information about the different types of business activities in which an
enterprise engages and the different economic environments in which it operates.
SFAS 131 is effective for the Company's financial statements beginning December
31, 1998.  The impact of SFAS 131 is not expected to be material in relation to
the consolidated financial statements.

          ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

In June, 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133).
SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instuments embeded in the contracts
and for hedging activities.  This Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters
of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.  The impact of SFAS 133 is
not expected to be material in relation to the consolidated financial
statements.

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

CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEETS

The Company's total assets increased by $49.4 million from $401.0 million as of
December 31, 1997, to $450.4 million as of September 30, 1998, due to the
company increasing market share in its trade areas.  The Company's strategy is
to increase market share by differentiating itself from large institutions
headquartered out side New Mexico through its approach to customer service and
marketing. For the first nine months of 1998, net loans increased by $28.4
million from $285.1 million to $313.5 million, while investment securities
increased by $18.6 million from $61.5 million to $80.1 million.  For the first
nine months of 1998, premises and equipment increased $800,000 from $14.1
million to $14.9 million and other assets decreased $600,000 from $4.0 million
to $3.4 million. The decrease in other assets resulted from $1.0 million in
unamortized offering costs being neted against common stock as a result of the
debenture conversion.

The increase in loans and leases is due largely to the Company's efforts to
increase its market share and increased economic activity and demand for loans
and leases in the Company's market area. The following table presents the amount
of loans and leases by category, at the dates indicated:

Investment securities increased by $18.6 million as a result of an increase in
deposits and securities sold under agreement to repurchase.

Deposits, which are the Company's main source of funds for loans, investments
and federal funds sold, increased by $30.8 million from $345.6 million as of
December 31, 1997, to $376.4 million as of September 30, 1998, as a result of
the company executing its market share strategy.  Non-interest-bearing deposits
increased by $8.6 million and interest-bearing deposits increased by $22.2
million.  For the first nine months of 1998, long-term debt decreased by $13.8
million due to the conversion of  7.5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the
"Debentures") into Common Stock of $12.8 million  net of $1.0 million of
unamortized offering costs.  Securities sold under agreements to repurchase
increased $16.8 million from $10.1 million to $26.9 million as a result of the
company's efforts to attract customers with large short-term cash balances which
the company invests in like termed securities at a positive interest rate
spread.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1998.

Net income for the Company for the three months ended September 30, 1998, was
$1.10 million, an increase of $234,000 or 27% from $866,000 for the same period
of 1997.  The Company's annualized return on average assets was 1.00% for the
third quarter of 1998, compared to 0.93% for the same period of 1997.

The provision for loan losses increased by $214,500 to $642,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1998, from $427,500 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997.  The increase was due to loan growth and increased non-
accrual loans.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $1.0 million to
$6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998, from $5.1 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1997, primarily due to increased loan
and investment security volume.  The Company's net interest margin increased to
6.15% at September 30, 1998, from 6.13% at September 30, 1997. Management
believes that the recent Federal Reserve Board's interest rate cuts will
compress the net interest margin in future quarters, because a large portion of
the company's loans are prime based with floating rates.

Total non-interest income increased by $200,000 to $1.4 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $1.2 million for the same period of
1997, primarily due to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts and
other banking and service fees as a result of increased deposits.

Total non-interest expense increased by $500,000 to $5.1 million for the third
quarter of 1998, from $4.6 million for the same period of 1997.  Salaries and
employee benefits increased by $328,000 as a result of additions to personnel
due to growth, annual salary increases, and a $75,000 charge relating to
compensation expense for employee stock options.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998.

Net income for the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, was
$2.97 million, an increase of $620,000 or 26% from $2.35 million for the same
period of 1997.  The Company's annualized return on average assets was 0.95% for
the first nine months of 1998, compared to 0.89% for the same period of 1997.

The provision for loan losses increased by $660,000 to $1.75 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998, from $1.09 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997.  The increase was due to loan growth and increased
non-accrual loans.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $2.8 million to
$17.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, from $14.3 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, primarily due to increased loan
and investment security volume.  The Company's net interest margin increased to
6.06% at September 30, 1998, from 6.02% at September 30, 1997.

Total non-interest income increased by $500,000 to $3.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $3.2 million for the same period of
1997, primarily due to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts and
other banking and service fees as a result of increased deposits.

first nine months of 1998, from $12.9 million for the same period of 1997.

Loans secured by real estate and other real estate owned comprise approximately
$6.7 million of the non-performing assets as of September 30, 1998.  Based
primarily on the appraised values of the underlying properties, specific
reserves of $122,000, within the Allowances for Loan and Lease Losses and other
real estate owned, have been established for these loans and properties.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, loan repayments,
and maturities of investment securities.  The Company has additional sources of
liquidity in the form of borrowings.  Borrowings include federal funds
purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements and borrowings from the
Federal Home Loan Bank.

On April 28, 1998, the Company notified the holders of its 7.5% Debentures that
the Debentures would be called for redemption at 100% of the original principal
plus accrued interest on May 29, 1998. The Indenture allowed management to
redeem the Debentures at par when the Company's common stock closed at 140% of
the exercise price ($16.75) for 30 consecutive trading days.  As of April 24,
1998 this condition was met.  All of the Debenture holders exercised the
conversion priviledge resulting in 823,869 shares of common stock being issued
and $12.8 million being added to common equity.

YEAR 2000

The Company began it's Year 2000 planning and evaluation process in 1997.  Early
on, the awareness stage was completed by management and the Board of Directors.
The various systems (hardware and software) of the Company have been assigned
into the various categories of critical, essential and moderate importance.  The
assessment stage is essentially complete for the critical and essential systems
and substantially complete for the systems of moderate importance.

All of the Company's systems are provided by reputable third party vendors, with
only very minor programming changes made internally.  Sixteen systems have been
identified as critical to the Company's daily processing.  Of those, thirteen
have been certified by the provider to be Year 2000 compliant, while one has
been certified by the provider to be not date sensitive.  The other two critical
systems have been determined by Company personnel to be not date sensitive.
Twenty-eight systems have been identified as essential to the Company's daily
operations.  Twenty-two of the essential systems have been certified by the
provider as being Year 2000 compliant.  The providers for five of the essential
systems have indicated that those systems will be compliant by December 31,
1998.  One essential system has been determined by Company personnel to be not
date sensitive.

The Company's Year 2000 testing began in the second quarter of 1998 and is
progressing on schedule to be complete by March 31, 1999, with most critical
system testing scheduled to be complete by December 31, 1998.  To date, no
significant problems have been encountered in the testing process.

Many of the Company's larger loan and deposit customers have been contacted
regarding their readiness for the Year 2000, to determine if the Company has
significant credit risk or exposure to declining liquidity, due to potential
problems of customers related to Year 2000 issues.  Information is being
gathered on most of these larger customers and determinations made regarding the
relative risk to these customers.  To date, significant loss or liquidity
exposure has not been identified among the Company's customer base, but
additional evaluation is being performed on an ongoing basis.

The direct costs to date of the Company's Year 2000 effort have totaled
approximately $45,000.  These include direct salary cost of approximately
$30,000 and equipment costs of $15,000.  There are indirect costs related to
significant amounts of time being spent by existing Company personnel, for
development of test plans, test scripts, and for actual testing.  Most of this
time is spent as part of their normal job responsibilities, with no additional
direct cost incurred.

The major risks of the Company's Year 2000 issues are its ability to provide
consistent daily processing of customer information and the soundness of the
Company's loan portfolio.  The Company is managing this risk by performing
extensive analysis and testing to identify potential problem areas for its
systems and throughout its customer base.  The possible impacts on the Company
would include a substantial loss of customers and the related revenue on those
customers' relationships, as well as possible loan losses resulting from the
inability of the Company's customers to repay their loans on a timely basis.

The Company's contingency plans consist primarily of identifying alternative
systems or other methods of processing, in the event that the existing systems
are not able to properly operate through the effected time frames.  Some
contingency actions also include manual processing of information or the
possible abandonment of certain systems.
