              Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
                                  (Unaudited)

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-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

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, 1999, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
1999.

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 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.  Treasury Stock

During the three months ended June 30, 1999, the Company purchased 152,500
shares of its common stock totaling $3,012,031. The Company's Board of Directors
has authorized the additional purchase of up to 250,000 shares.

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 $61.9 million from $493.7 million as of
December 31, 1998, to $555.6 million as of September 30, 1999, 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 1999, net loans increased by $82.5
million from $335.0 million to $417.5 million.  This increase in loans was
funded through a decrease in investment securities, and increases in deposits,
other liabilities, and long-term debt.  Investment securities decreased by $27.0
million from $122.1 million to $95.1 million.  For the first nine months of
1999, premises and equipment decreased $1.3 million from $14.8 million to $13.5
million as a result of the sale of premises and early payoffs of operating
leases.  Other assets increased $2.4 million from $3.6 million to $6.0 million.

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:

Deposits, which are the Company's main source of funds for loans, investments
and federal funds sold, increased by $37.2 million from $409.0 million as of
December 31, 1998, to $446.2 million as of September 30, 1999, as a result of
the company executing its market share strategy.  Non-interest-bearing deposits
increased by $3.1 million and interest-bearing deposits increased by $34.1
million.  For the first nine months of 1999, long-term debt increased by $10.0
million due to Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings used to fund loan demand.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased $8.4 million from $36.7
million to $45.1 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,
1999.

Net income for the Company for the three months ended September 30, 1999, was
$1.43 million, an increase of $330,000 or 33% from $1.10 million for the same
period of 1998.  The Company's annualized return on average assets was 1.03% for
the third quarter of 1999, compared to 1.00% for the same period of 1998.

The provision for loan losses increased by $261,400 to $903,400 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999, from $642,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1998.  The increase was due to loan growth and increased loan
charge-offs.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $1.39 million to
$7.49 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999, from $6.10 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1998, primarily due to increased loan
and investment security volume. The Company's net interest margin decreased to
5.91% at September 30, 1999, from 6.15% at September 30, 1998.  The decrease was
due to the Federal Reserve Board's interest rate cuts in the third and fourth
quarters of 1998.

Total non-interest income increased by $200,000 to $1.60 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $1.40 million for the same period
of 1998, 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  $910,000 million to $6.02 million for
the third quarter of 1999, from $5.11 million for the same period of 1998.
Salaries and employee benefits increased by $600,000 as a result of additions to
personnel due to growth and annual salary increases.

Consolidated Results of Operations For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999.

Net income for the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, was
$3.75 million, an increase of $780,000 or 26% from $2.97 million for the same
period of 1998.  The Company's annualized return on average assets was 0.96% for
the first nine months of 1999, compared to 0.95% for the same period of 1998.

nine months ended September 30, 1999, from $1.75 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998.  The increase was due to loan growth and increased
loan charge-offs.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $3.82 million to
$20.89 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, from $17.07 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, primarily due to increased loan
and investment security volume. The Company's net interest margin decreased to
5.81% at September 30, 1999, from 6.15% at September 30, 1998.  The decrease was
due to the Federal Reserve Board's interest rate cuts in the third and fourth
quarters of 1998.

Total non-interest income increased by $470,000 to $4.20 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $3.73 million for the same period
of 1998, 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 1999, from $14.46 million for the same period of 1998.

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 privilege resulting in 823,869 shares of common stock being issued
and $12.8 million being added to common equity.

Year 2000

The Company began its 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 complete for all systems.

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 not be date sensitive.  The other two critical
systems have been determined by Company personnel to not be date sensitive.
Twenty-seven systems have been identified as essential to the Company's daily
operations.  All twenty-seven of the essential systems have been certified by
the provider as being Year 2000 compliant.

The Company's Year 2000 testing began in the second quarter of 1998 and is
substantially complete, with limited re-testing of certain systems remaining.
No significant problems have been encountered in the testing process.

                                       8
<PAGE>

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 $302,000.  These include allocated salary cost of approximately
$89,000 and equipment costs of approximately $180,000.  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 has developed contingency plans which will undergo continuing review
and testing.  These plans include plans for replacement of non-compliant system,
other processing alternatives, and liquidity matters.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements which are forward-looking are not historical facts, and involve risks
and uncertainties that could cause the Company's results to differ materially
from those in any forward-looking statements.  These risks include the possible
loss of key personnel, need for additional capital should the Company experience
faster than anticipated growth, changes in economic conditions, interest rate
risk, factors which could affect the Company's ability to compete in its trade
areas, changes in regulations and governmental policies, and the risks described
in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.  Forward-looking
statements with respect to the Year 2000 may differ materially if commitments or
representations from third parties are not fulfilled.
