Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Audit Committee of

the Prosperity Bancshares, Inc.

401K Profit Sharing Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. 401K Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31, 2003 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. 401K Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31, 2003 and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 2003 is presented for purposes of complying with the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

401K Profit Sharing Plan

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2003 and 2002

1. Description of Plan

The following description of the Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. 401K Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

GENERAL

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all full-time employees of Prosperity Bank (the “Bank”), plan sponsor, who have completed at least three months of service and are twenty-one or older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

CONTRIBUTIONS

Each year, participants may contribute up to 15% of pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. The Bank, at its discretion, may contribute to the Plan, on a participant’s behalf, a matching contribution which is determined annually. In 2003 and 2002, the Bank matched 50% of the employees’ contributions.

Upon enrollment, a participant may direct contributions in any increment to any of the Plan’s fund options. Participants may change their investment options quarterly. Employer contributions are matched to the funds designated by the participant.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions and allocations of (a) the bank’s contributions and (b) plan earnings, and is charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. Forfeited balances of terminated participants’ nonvested accounts are used to reduce future company contributions. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s account.

1. Description of Plan (continued)

VESTING

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Bank contribution portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service. A participant is vested ratable (20% at the end of the second year as a participant in the plan) over a six-year period.

PARTICIPANT LOANS

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan terms generally range from 1-5 years, but can be longer if the loan is used to purchase a principal residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with the local prevailing rates. Principal and interest is paid ratable through monthly payroll deductions. Interest rates range from 5.00% to 11.5% on outstanding loans.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

On termination of service, a participant may receive a lump-sum amount, equal to the vested value of his or her account, or upon death, disability or retirement, elect to receive payment from the following options: (1) qualified joint and survivor annuities, (2) single payment of the employee’s entire benefit, (3) equal installments over a fixed period not to exceed the employee’s life expectancy or the joint and last survivor’s life expectancy, or (4) payments in the form of a joint and survivor annuity. The Plan does permit hardship distributions. In order to qualify for such hardship withdrawal, the participant must demonstrate that an immediate and necessary financial hardship has been incurred.

FORFEITURES

Any forfeiture subject to allocation during each Plan Year shall be allocated among all participants in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

PLAN TERMINATION

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Bank has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.

INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices, which represent the net asset value of the shares held by the Plan at year-end. The Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. common stock is valued at its quoted market price. The participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value. Money market accounts and certificates of deposit are valued based on amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Prosperity Bancshares, Inc.

401K Profit Sharing Plan

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

December 31, 2003 and 2002

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

NET APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) IN FAIR VALUE OF INVESTMENTS

The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its investments which consists of the realized gains or losses on sale of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those investments.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the 2002 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2003 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on reported net increase in assets available for benefits.

3. Credit Risk

The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks, bonds, fixed income securities, mutual funds and other investment securities. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such change could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits and the amounts reported in participant accounts.

4. Tax Status

The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Service Code (the “Code”) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is exempt.

5. Party-in-Interest Transactions

Investment transactions in Prosperity Bank Interest Bearing Accounts and Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. Common Stock qualify as party-in-interest transactions.

During July 2002, the Plan entered into an agreement with First Trust Corporation (“FTC”) whereby FTC became the Trustee of the Plan. Compensation to FTC is based on .07% of assets, billed quarterly. Compensation paid to FTC for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $9,103. No compensation was paid to FTC for the year ended December 31, 2002.
