NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2003
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prosperity Bancshares, Inc.SM (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Prosperity Bank SM (the “Bank”) and Prosperity Holdings, Inc. On May 31, 2002, Prosperity completed a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100 percent stock dividend. All prior period per share and share data have been restated to reflect this split. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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, the statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company on a consolidated basis, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003.
2. INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
The following table illustrates the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share data):
Net income available to common shareholders
Weighted average common shares outstanding
Potential dilutive common shares
Weighted average common shares and equivalents outstanding
Basic earnings per common share
Diluted earnings per common share
3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others – an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34.” FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. Implementation of the remaining provisions of FIN 45 on January 1, 2003 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
FIN No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulleting No. 51.” FIN 46 establishes accounting guidance for consolidation of variable interest entities (VIE) that function to support the activities of the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the entity that absorbs a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receives a majority of the VIE’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, controlling interest, contractual relationship or other business relationship with a VIE. Prior to the implementation of FIN 46, VIE’s were generally consolidated by an enterprise when the enterprise had a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority of voting interest in the entity. The provisions of FIN 46 were effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003, and are otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.
The Company adopted FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. In its current form, FIN 46 may require the Company to de-consolidate its investments in Prosperity Capital Trust I, Prosperity Statutory Trust II and Paradigm Capital Trust I in future financial statements. The potential de-consolidation of subsidiary trusts of bank holding companies formed in connection with the issuance of trust preferred securities appears to be an unintended consequence of FIN 46. It is currently unknown if, or when, the Financial Accounting Standards Board will address this issue. In July 2003, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System issued a supervisory letter instructing bank holding companies to continue to include the trust preferred securities in their Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes until notice is given to the contrary. The Federal Reserve intends to review the regulatory implications of any accounting treatment changes and, if necessary or warranted, provide further appropriate guidance. There can be no assurance that the Federal Reserve will continue to allow institutions to include trust preferred securities in Tier I capital for regulatory capital purposes. As of June 30, 2003, assuming the Company was not allowed to include the $33.0 million in trust preferred securities issued by Prosperity Capital Trust I, Prosperity Statutory Trust II and Paradigm Capital Trust I, the Company would still exceed the regulatory required minimums for capital adequacy purposes. If the trust preferred securities were no longer allowed to be included in Tier I capital, the Company would also be permitted to redeem the capital securities without penalty.
SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” SFAS 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The amendments (i) reflect decisions of the Derivatives Implementation Group (DIG); (ii) reflect decisions made by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in conjunction with other projects dealing with financial instruments; and (iii) address implementation issues related to the application of the definition of a derivative. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003, with all provisions applied prospectively. Adoption of SFAS 149 on July 1, 2003 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies, measures and discloses in its financial statements certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS 150 requires that an issuer classify financial instruments that are within its scope as liabilities, in most circumstances Such financial instruments include (i) financial instruments that are issued in the form of shares that are mandatorily redeemable; (ii) financial instruments that embody an obligation to repurchase the issuer’s equity shares, or are indexed to such an obligation that the issuer may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is predominantly based on a fixed amount, variations in something other than the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares or variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares; and (iv) certain freestanding financial instruments. SFAS 150 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Adoption of SFAS 150 on July 1, 2003 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

4. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On July 21, 2003, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with MainBancorp, Inc, Dallas, Texas. Pursuant to the agreement, MainBancorp will merge into the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, mainbank, n.a. will merge into the Bank. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will pay approximately $9.5 million in cash and issue 1.5 million shares of its common stock, subject to adjustment, for all outstanding shares of MainBancorp. MainBancorp is privately held and operates four (4) banking offices in Dallas, Texas. As of June 30, 2003, mainbank, n.a. had total assets of $195.7 million, loans of $103.1 million, deposits of $172.1 million and shareholders’ equity of $22.7 million. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company will not complete the acquisition unless customary closing conditions are satisfied or waived, including receipt of the necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals and consents from applicable regulatory agencies including the Federal Reserve Board, the Texas Department of Banking and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
On June 1, 2003, the Company completed the acquisition of Dallas Bancshares, Dallas, Texas (“Dallas Bancshares”). In connection with the acquisition, Dallas Bancshares’ wholly owned subsidiary, BankDallas, was merged with and into the Bank. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the Company paid approximately $7.0 million in cash. Dallas Bancshares operated one (1) banking office in Dallas, Texas.

As of March 31, 2003, Abrams Centre National Bank had total assets of $96.5 million, loans of $31.7 million, deposits of $70.8 million and shareholders’ equity of $14.0 million.
5. STOCK INCENTIVE PROGRAM
The Company has two stock-based employee compensation plans. Prior to 2003, the Company accounted for those plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost was reflected in previously reported results, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148 (SFAS 148). Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, an amendment to FASB Statement 123. SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS 148 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as provided by SFAS No. 148 for stock-based employee compensation.

If compensation expense had been recorded based on the fair value at the grant date for awards consistent with SFAS No. 123 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company’s net income and earnings per share would have been as follows:

6. GOODWILL AMORTIZATION
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142). SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121 and subsequently, SFAS No. 144 after its adoption.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002. Goodwill and intangible assets determined to have an indefinite useful life acquired in a purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 are no longer amortized.

The Greater Houston CMSA includes Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, and Montgomery counties.
Total assets were $1.98 billion at June 30, 2003 compared with $1.82 billion at December 31, 2002. Total loans increased to $699.5 million at June 30, 2003 from $679.6 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $20.0 million, or 2.9%. Loans from the Abrams acquisition totaled $27.8 million and loans from the Dallas Bancshares acquisition totaled $26.9 million. Total deposits were $1.75 billion at June 30, 2003 compared with $1.59 billion at December 31, 2002, a increase of $159.9 million, or 10.1%. Shareholders’ equity increased $11.9 million or 7.7%, to $166.6 million at June 30, 2003 compared with $154.7 million at December 31, 2002.
13
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income available to common shareholders was $6.5 million ($0.34 per common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared with $4.8 million ($0.29 per common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $1.7 million, or 35.5%. The Company posted returns on average common equity of 15.88% and 20.16%, returns on average assets of 1.34% and 1.43% and efficiency ratios of 50.73% and 52.06% for the quarters ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, net income available to common shareholders was $12.9 million ($0.67 per common share on a diluted basis) compared with $9.3 million ($0.56 per common share on a diluted basis) for the same period in 2002, an increase of $3.6 million or 38.8%. The Company posted returns on average common equity of 16.03% and 19.77%, returns on average assets of 1.37% and 1.42% and efficiency ratios of 50.98% and 52.20% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $16.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared with $12.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $3.3 million, or 25.9%. Net interest income increased primarily as a result of an increase in average interest-earning assets to $1.77 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $1.26 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $505.5 million, or 40.0%. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis decreased to 3.77% from 4.21% for the same periods principally due to a 103 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets from 6.05% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 to 5.02% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, partially offset by a 71 basis point decrease in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from 2.46% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 to 1.75% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.
Net interest income increased $7.4 million, or 29.9%, to $32.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $24.9 million for the same period in 2002. This increase is mainly attributable to higher average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis decreased to 3.88% from 4.17% for the same periods principally due to a 91 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets from 6.07% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 5.16% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 partially offset by a 74 basis point decrease in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from 2.53% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 1.79% for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
14
The following tables set forth, for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the average amounts outstanding, the interest earned or paid on such amounts, and the average rate earned or paid for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The tables also set forth the net interest margin on average total interest-earning assets for the same periods. Except as indicated in the footnotes, no tax-equivalent adjustments were made and all average balances are daily average balances. Any nonaccruing loans have been included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

The Company’s net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as a “volume change.” It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as a “rate change.”
The following tables present the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and distinguish between the increase (decrease) related to outstanding balances and the volatility of interest rates for the periods indicated. For purposes of these tables, changes attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated have been allocated to rate.
Securities
Total increase (decrease) in interest income

Provision for Credit Losses
Management actively monitors the Company’s asset quality and provides specific loss provisions when necessary. Provisions for credit losses are charged to income to bring the total allowance for credit losses to a level deemed appropriate by management of the Company based on such factors as historical credit loss experience,
17
industry diversification of the commercial loan portfolio, the amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral, the volume growth and composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay and the value of collateral, the evaluation of the loan portfolio through the internal loan review function and other relevant factors.
The Company made a $120,000 provision for credit losses for the quarters ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. The Company made a $240,000 provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.
Noninterest Income
The Company’s primary sources of noninterest income are service charges on deposit accounts and other banking service related fees. The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major categories of noninterest income:
Service charges on deposit accounts
Other noninterest income
Noninterest income totaled $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared with $2.3 million for the same period in 2002, an increase of $1.7 million, or 71.5%. Noninterest income increased $3.3 million, or 74.0%, to $7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $4.5 million for the same period in 2002. The increase in both periods is primarily due to increased service charge income related to the acquisitions of Texas Guaranty Bank, N.A., Houston, Texas (the “Texas Guaranty Acquisition”), First State Bank of Needville, Needville, Texas (the “First State Acquisition”), Paradigm Bancorporation, Inc., Houston, Texas (the “Paradigm Acquisition”), First National Bank of Bay City, Bay City, Texas (the “FNB Acquisition”), Southwest Bank Holding Company, Dallas, Texas (the “Southwest Acquisition”) and the Abrams and Dallas Bancshares Acquisitions.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $10.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared with $8.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $2.4 million, or 29.1%. This increase is principally due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, increases in occupancy expense, increases in acquisition expenses and increases in core deposit intangibles amortization expense due to a recent accounting change.
Noninterest expense totaled $21.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of $5.2 million, or 32.9%, from $15.8 million for the same period in 2002. This increase is principally due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, increases in minority interest expense related to the trust preferred securities, acquisition expenses, and increases in core deposit intangibles amortization expense.
18
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major categories of noninterest expense:
Non-staff expenses:
Depreciation

Salaries and employee benefit expenses were $5.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared with $3.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $1.9 million, or 55.0%. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, salaries and employee benefits increased $3.4 million or 46.1% compared with the same period in 2002. Both increases were principally due to additional staff associated with the Texas Guaranty, First State, Paradigm, FNB, Southwest, Abrams and Dallas Bancshares Acquisitions.
Non-staff expenses increased $489,000, or 10.4%, to $5.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared with the same period in 2002. For the six month period ended June 30, 2003, non-staff expenses increased $1.8 million, or 21.6%, to $10.3 million from $8.5 million for the same period in 2002. The increase during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 was principally due to acquisition expenses related to addition of thirteen banking centers since June 30, 2002.
On March 27, 2003, the Company announced it selected Vision™ software from Precision Computer Systems (“PCS”) to replace its current data processing system maintained by a third party vendor. PCS converted the Company’s data processing system from an outsourced environment to an in-house operating system. The conversion to the Company’s new in-house operating system was completed on July 11, 2003. The data processing expenses set forth in the table above do not include the costs associated with the conversion. Such costs were capitalized and will be depreciated over a five year period.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense increased $915,000, or 43.4%, to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $2.1 million for the same period in 2002. For the six month period ended June 30, 2003, income tax expense increased $1.9 million, or 48.4%, to $6.0 million from $4.0 million for the same period in 2002. Both increases were primarily attributable to higher pretax net earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 when compared to the same periods in 2002.

Loans acquired as a part of the Abrams Acquisition totaled $27.8 million and loans from the Dallas Bancshares Acquisition totaled $26.9 million. Loans from acquisitions completed during 2002 declined during the first six months of 2003 primarily from management’s desire to improve the credit quality of its acquired loans. Period end loans comprised 40.6% of average earning assets at June 30, 2003 compared with 49.8% at December 31, 2002.

Nonperforming Assets
The Company had $2.2 million in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2003 and $2.6 million in nonperforming assets at December 31, 2002. The Company generally places a loan on nonaccrual status and ceases accruing interest when the payment of principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days, or earlier in some cases, unless the loan is in the process of collection and the underlying collateral fully supports the carrying value of the loan. The Company generally charges off all loans before attaining nonaccrual status. Other real estate totaled $1.0 million at June 30, 2003 and included one significant commercial property valued at $765,000.

Allowance for Credit Losses
Management actively monitors the Company’s asset quality and provides specific loss allowances when necessary. Loans are charged-off against the allowance for credit losses when appropriate. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for credit losses,

Deposits are the primary source of funds for the Company’s lending and investment activities. Occasionally, the Company obtains additional funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and correspondent banks. At June 30, 2003, the Company had $12.3 million in FHLB borrowings, all of which consisted of FHLB notes payable. The maturity dates on the FHLB notes payable range from the years 2004 to 2018 and have interest rates ranging from 5.95% to 6.48%. At December 31, 2002, the Company had $37.9 million in FHLB borrowings of which $12.6 million consisted of FHLB notes payable and $25.3 million consisted of FHLB advances. Any FHLB advances are secured by a blanket lien on the Bank’s first mortgage loans against one-to-four family residential properties.
At June 30, 2003, the Company had $16.7 million in securities sold under repurchase agreements.
Trust Preferred Securities
At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company’s subsidiary trusts had outstanding $33.0 million in trust preferred securities.
Liquidity
Effective management of balance sheet liquidity is necessary to fund growth in earning assets and to pay liability maturities, depository customers’ withdrawal requirements and shareholders’ dividends. The Company has numerous sources of liquidity including a significant portfolio of shorter-term assets, marketable investment securities (excluding those presently classified as “held-to-maturity”), increases in customers’ deposits, and access to borrowing arrangements. Available borrowing arrangements maintained by the Company include federal funds lines with other commercial banks and an advancement arrangement with the FHLB.
Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily marketable or which will mature in the near future. As of June 30, 2003, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $71.6 million, down from $80.8 million at December 31, 2002.
The Company’s future cash payments associated with its contractual obligations pursuant to its long-term debt and operating leases as of June 30, 2003 are summarized below:

Capital Resources
Total shareholders’ equity was $166.6 million at June 30, 2003 compared with $154.7 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $11.9 million, or 7.7%. The increase was primarily due to net earnings of $12.9 million and a net change in unrealized gain on available for sale securities of $1.0 million, partially offset by cash dividends paid of $2.4 million.
Both the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, with respect to the Company, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), with respect to the Bank, have established certain minimum risk-based capital standards that apply to bank holding companies and federally insured banks.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company manages market risk, which for the Company is primarily interest rate risk, through its Asset Liability Committee which is composed of senior officers of the Company, in accordance with policies approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company uses simulation analysis to examine the potential effects of market changes on net interest income and market value. It considers macroeconomic variables, Company strategy, liquidity and other factors as it quantifies market risk. There have been no material changes of this nature since the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filing on March 7, 2003. See Form 10-K, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations-Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity”.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to the Company’s management within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
Changes in internal controls. Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, there were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors known to the Company that could significantly affect the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, and there were no corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses based on such evaluation.
