(UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prosperity Bancshares, Inc.^® (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Prosperity Bank^® (the “Bank”) and Prosperity Holdings of Delaware, LLC. 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, 2006. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007.

2. INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

The following table illustrates the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Statements of Financial Accounting Standards

SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments.” SFAS 155 amends SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and SFAS 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” SFAS 155 (i) permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, (ii) clarifies which interest-only strips and principal only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS 133, (iii) establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, (iv) clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives, and (v) amends SFAS 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. Adoption of SFAS 155 on January 1, 2007 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

MARCH 31, 2007

(UNAUDITED)

SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option (i) may be applied instrument by instrument, with certain exceptions, (ii) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs) and (iii) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS 159 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretations

FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109.” The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109,” effective January 1, 2007. Interpretation 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. Interpretation 48 also provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. Penalties are recorded in other (gains) losses, net, and interest paid or received is recorded in interest expense or interest income, respectively, in the statement of income. The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state franchise tax return in Texas as “major” tax jurisdictions, as defined. The only periods subject to examination for the Company’s federal return are the 2003 through 2006 tax years. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to FIN 48. In addition, the Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of FIN 48.

4. GOODWILL AND CORE DEPOSIT INTANGIBLES

Changes in the carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill and core deposit intangibles for the three months ended March 31, 2007 were as follows:

Gross core deposit intangibles outstanding were $65.6 million and $34.6 million at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Net core deposit intangibles outstanding were $51.9 million and $23.0 million for the same periods, respectively. Purchase accounting adjustments to prior year acquisitions were made to adjust deferred tax asset and liability balances. Goodwill is recorded on the acquisition date of each entity. The Company may record subsequent adjustments to goodwill for amounts undeterminable at acquisition date, such as deferred taxes and real estate valuations, and therefore the goodwill amounts reflected in the table above may change accordingly. The Company initially records the total premium paid on acquisitions as goodwill. After a third party valuation, core deposit intangibles are identified and reclassified from goodwill to core deposit intangibles on the balance sheet. This reclassification had no effect on total assets, liabilities, shareholders’ equity, net income or cash flows.

5. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company had two stock-based employee compensation plans at March 31, 2007 and five stock option plans assumed in connection with acquisitions under which no additional options will be granted. 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. The Company adopted SFAS 123 on January 1, 2003 and SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006. The Company recorded $432,000 and $172,000 in stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. There was approximately $37,000 and $9,000 of income tax benefit recorded for the stock-based compensation expense for the same periods.

The Company has granted shares (“restricted stock”) to certain directors and associates under the 2004 Plan. The awardee is not entitled to the shares until they vest, which is generally over a 1 to 5 year period, but the awardee is entitled to receive dividends on and vote the shares prior to vesting. The shares granted do not have a cost to the awardee and the only requirement of vesting is continued service to the Company. Compensation cost related to restricted stock is calculated based on the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. If the awardee leaves the Company before the shares vest, the unvested shares are forfeited. As of March 31, 2007, there were 82,129 shares of restricted stock outstanding with a weighted average grant date fair value of $34.67.

Stock options are issued at the current market price on the date of the grant, subject to a pre-determined vesting period with a contractual term of 10 years. Options assumed in connection with acquisitions also have a contractual term of 10 years from date of original issuance under the original plan. The fair value of stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period for all awards.

The fair value of options was estimated using an option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions as of the dates indicated:

A summary of changes in outstanding options during the three months ended March 31, 2007 is set forth below:

(UNAUDITED)

No options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2007 or 2006. The Company assumed 179,956 options in connection with the TXUI acquisition which were fully vested upon consummation of the transaction. The total intrinsic value of the options exercised during the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was $2.8 million and $772,000, respectively. Excluding the shares assumed in the TXUI acquisition, the total fair value of shares vested during the three month period ended March 31, 2007 was approximately $11,000.

A summary of changes in non-vested options is set forth below:

The Company received $1.8 million and $689,000 in cash from the exercise of stock options during the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. There was no tax benefit realized from option exercises of the share-based payment arrangements during the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.

As of March 31, 2007, there was $4.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock-based compensation arrangements. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

6. RECENT ACQUISITION

On January 31, 2007, the Company completed its acquisition of Texas United Bancshares, Inc., La Grange, Texas (“TXUI”). Under the terms of the merger agreement, TXUI was merged into the Company and subsequently each of TXUI’s wholly owned subsidiary banks, State Bank, GNB Financial, n.a., Gateway National Bank and Northwest Bank, was merged into the Bank. The Company issued approximately 10.8 million shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of TXUI. In addition, options to acquire 179,956 shares of TXUI common stock were converted into options to acquire 179,956 shares of Company common stock. In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed $44.8 million in junior subordinated debentures issued to five subsidiary trusts. TXUI was publicly traded and operated forty-one (41) banking offices in Texas, two of which were subsequently consolidated with existing Prosperity banking centers. As of December 31, 2006, TXUI had, on a consolidated basis, total assets of $1.806 billion, loans (including loans held for sale) of $1.212 billion, deposits of $1.362 billion and shareholders’ equity of $161.9 million.

COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OF TEXAS UNITED BANCSHARES, INC.

        On January 31, 2007, the Company completed its acquisition of Texas United Bancshares, Inc., La Grange, Texas (“TXUI”). Under the terms of the merger agreement, TXUI was merged into the Company and subsequently each of TXUI’s wholly owned subsidiary banks, State Bank, GNB Financial, n.a., Gateway National Bank and Northwest Bank, was merged into the Bank. The Company issued approximately 10.8 million shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of TXUI. In addition, options to acquire 179,956 shares of TXUI common stock were converted into options to acquire 179,956 shares of Company common stock. In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed $44.8 million in junior subordinated debentures issued to five subsidiary trusts. TXUI was publicly traded and operated forty-one (41) banking offices in Texas, two of which were subsequently consolidated into existing Prosperity locations. As of December 31, 2006, TXUI had, on a consolidated basis, total assets of $1.806 billion, loans (including loans held for sale) of $1.212 billion, deposits of $1.362 billion and shareholders’ equity of $161.9 million.

OVERVIEW

The Company, a Texas corporation, was formed in 1983 as a vehicle to acquire the former Allied First Bank in Edna, Texas which was chartered in 1949 as The First National Bank of Edna. The Company is a registered financial holding company that derives substantially all of its revenues and income from the operation of its bank subsidiary, Prosperity Bank^® (“Prosperity Bank^®” or the “Bank”). The Bank provides a wide array of financial products and services to small and medium-sized businesses and consumers. At March 31, 2007, the Bank operated one hundred twenty-five (125) full-service banking locations in Texas; with forty-one (41) in the Greater Houston Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area (“CMSA”), thirty-three (33) in the south Texas area including Corpus Christi and Victoria, twenty-seven (27) in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, two (2) in East Texas and twenty-two (22) in the Central Texas area including Austin and Bryan/College Station. The Greater Houston CMSA includes Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery, San Jacinto and Waller counties. The Company’s headquarters are located at Prosperity Bank Plaza, 4295 San Felipe in Houston, Texas and its telephone number is (713) 693-9300. The Company’s website address is www.prosperitybanktx.com. Information contained on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and is not part of this or any other report.

The Company generates the majority of its revenues from interest income on loans, service charges on customer accounts and income from investment in securities. The revenues are partially offset by interest expense paid on deposits and other borrowings and non-interest expenses such as administrative, occupancy and general operating expenses. Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets such as loans and securities and interest expense on liabilities such as deposits and borrowings which are used to fund those assets. The level of interest rates and the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities impact net interest income and margin.

Three principal components of the Company’s growth strategy are internal growth, stringent cost control practices and strategic merger transactions. The Company focuses on continual internal growth. Each banking center is operated as a separate profit center, maintaining separate data with respect to its net interest income, efficiency ratio, deposit growth, loan growth and overall profitability. Banking center presidents and managers are accountable for performance in these areas and compensated accordingly. The Company also focuses on maintaining stringent cost control practices and policies. The Company has invested significantly in the infrastructure required to centralize many of its critical operations, such as data processing and loan processing. Management believes that this centralized infrastructure can accommodate substantial

Table of Contents

additional growth while enabling the Company to minimize operational costs through certain economies of scale. The Company also intends to continue to seek expansion opportunities. On April 1, 2006, the Company acquired SNB Bancshares, Inc. (the “SNB acquisition”) which added six (6) banking centers and on January 31, 2007, the Company acquired Texas United Bancshares, Inc. (the “TXUI acquisition”) which added thirty-nine (39) additional banking centers after two locations were consolidated with existing Prosperity banking centers.

Total assets were $6.33 billion at March 31, 2007 compared with $4.59 billion at December 31, 2006, an increase of $1.74 billion or 37.9%. Total loans were $3.25 billion at March 31, 2007 compared with $2.18 billion at December 31, 2006, an increase of $1.07 billion or 49.2%. Total deposits were $4.93 billion at March 31, 2007 compared with $3.73 billion December 31, 2006, an increase of $1.20 billion or 32.3%. Shareholders’ equity increased $402.2 million or 60.5%, to $1.067 billion at March 31, 2007 compared with $664.4 million at December 31, 2006. The increases were primarily due to the TXUI acquisition.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the financial results reported. Accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity:

Allowance for Credit Losses—The allowance for credit losses is a reserve established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for credit losses. Management has established an allowance for credit losses which it believes is adequate for estimated losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. Based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a monthly review of the allowance for credit losses to the Bank’s Board of Directors, indicating any change in the allowance since the last review and any recommendations as to adjustments in the allowance. In making its evaluation, management considers factors such as historical loan loss experience, industry diversification of the Company’s commercial loan portfolio, the amount of nonperforming assets and related collateral, the volume, growth and composition of the Company’s loan portfolio, current economic changes that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay and the value of collateral, the evaluation of the Company’s loan portfolio through its internal loan review process and other relevant factors. Portions of the allowance may be allocated for specific credits; however, the entire allowance is available for any credit that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. Charge-offs occur when loans are deemed to be uncollectible. The allowance for credit losses includes allowance allocations calculated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by SFAS 118, and allowance allocations determined in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets—Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are subject to at least an annual impairment test and more frequently if circumstances indicate their value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step process that begins with an estimation of the fair value of each of the Company’s reporting units compared with its carrying value. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit, a second test is completed comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its carrying value to measure the amount of impairment. Intangible assets that are not amortized will be tested for impairment at least annually by comparing the fair values of those assets to their carrying values. Other identifiable intangible assets that are subject to amortization are amortized on an accelerated basis over the years expected to be benefited. These amortizable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their value may not be recoverable based on a comparison of fair value to carrying value. Based on the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test as of September 30, 2006, management does not believe any of its goodwill is impaired as of March 31, 2007. While the Company believes no impairment existed at March 31, 2007 under accounting standards applicable at that date, different conditions or assumptions, or changes in cash flows or profitability, if significantly negative or unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on the outcome of the Company’s impairment evaluation and financial condition or future results of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation—The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004),” on January 1, 2006 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company had previously adopted SFAS No. 123 on January 1, 2003. Among other things, SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value based method of accounting and requires that such transactions be recognized as compensation expense in the income statement based on their fair values on the date of the grant. SFAS No. 123R requires that management make assumptions including stock price volatility and employee turnover that are utilized to measure compensation expense. The fair value of stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income available to shareholders was $20.2 million ($0.50 per common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 compared with $12.9 million ($0.46 per common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $7.4 million or 57.3%. The Company posted returns on average common equity of 8.71% and 10.92%, returns on average assets of 1.40% and 1.43% and efficiency ratios of 47.73% and 46.80% for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Net Interest Income

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.”

Net interest income before the provision for credit losses was $46.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 compared with $29.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $16.9 million or 57.9%. Net interest income increased primarily as a result of an increase in average interest-earning assets to $4.82 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 compared with $3.14 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $1.68 billion or 53.5% that was primarily due to the TXUI and SNB acquisitions.

The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 84 basis points from 2.76% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 to 3.60% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, while the average yield on interest-earning assets increased 82 basis points from 5.90% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared with 6.72% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The average volume of interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.37 billion and the average volume of interest-earning assets increased $1.68 billion for the same period.

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth, for each major 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 quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The table also sets forth the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities, and 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.

Table of Contents

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and distinguishes between the increase (decrease) related to higher outstanding balances and the changes in interest rates. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated have been allocated to rate.

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, 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.

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 provision for credit losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.

The Company made a $245,000 and $120,000 provision for credit losses for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, net charge-offs were $635,000 compared with net charge-offs of $11,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.

Noninterest Income

The Company’s primary sources of recurring noninterest income are service charges on deposit accounts and other banking service related fees. Noninterest income does not include loan origination fees which are recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield using the interest method. Banking related service fees include check cashing fees, official check fees, safe deposit box rent and currency handling fees. Noninterest income totaled $11.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared with $7.7 million for the same period in 2006, an increase of $4.0 million or 52.2%.
