                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION

BSM Bancorp (the "Company") was incorporated on November 12, 1996, for the 
sole purpose of becoming a bank holding company for Bank of Santa Maria (the 
"Bank"). Following regulatory consent and with the approval of the Bank's 
shareholders, the Bank merged with BSM Merger Company (a wholly-owned 
subsidiary of the Company) (the "Merger"), as of the close of business on 
March 11, 1997, and thereby became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

As of December 31, 1996, the Company had only one shareholder and it had no 
SEC nor Federal Reserve Bank reporting requirements. Following completion of 
the Merger, the Company is required to file periodic reports under section 
15(d) of the Exchange Act. A quarterly report on Form 10Q was filed on March 
31, 1997, for the first time. As the Merger was recorded using the pooling of 
interest method, restatement of prior balances was necessary to meet 
accounting standards. Accordingly, the financial statements herein contain 
balances prior to the actual existence of the Company which reflect what the 
"consolidated" entity would have reported as restated for all acquisitions, 
either recorded by pooling or purchase accounting.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and with the 
instructions to Form 10-Q. On March 18, 1998, the Company filed a Form 8-A to 
register the Company Common Stock pursuant to 12(g) of the Exchange Act of 
1934, thereby becoming subject to its requirements.

The accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of 
income, and consolidated statements of changes in financial position (as 
restated subsequent to Merger of the Bank of Santa Maria by the Company), 
reflect all material adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the 
Company's financial position as of June 30, 1998, and December 31, 1997, and 
the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. 
All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature.

The following is a reconciliation of net income and shares outstanding to the

NOTE 3 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires companies 
to report all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from 
investment by owners and distribution to owners, in a financial statement for 
the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive Income, which 
encompasses net income and unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale 
securities adjustments, is presented below.

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

OVERVIEW

For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company reported net income of 
$2,305,870, or $.77 per share compared to a net income of $1,850,066, or $.62 
per share for the same six month period in 1997. The annualized return on 
average assets was 1.39% for the first half of 1998, compared to 1.20% for 
the first half of 1997. Annualized return on average shareholders' equity for 
1998 and 1997, was 12.82% and 10.92% respectively.

On January 30, 1998, the Company and Mid-State Bank announced the signing of 
an Agreement to Merge and Plan of Reorganization on January 29, 1998 (as 
amended on March 18, 1998), pursuant to which the Bank of Santa Maria, the 
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, would be merged with and into Mid-State 
Bank and become the subsidiary of the Company. Upon consummation of the 
merger, Mid-State will become the surviving bank and the name of the Company 
will be changed from BSM Bancorp to Mid-State Bancshares. As part of the 
Agreement, three of the existing directors of the Company/Bank, including the 
Company's Chairman and President, will continue as directors of the Company 
and have been appointed as directors of Mid-State Bank. The remaining 
directors of the Company have resigned with the vacancies to be filled by the 
seven existing directors of Mid-State Bank. The Company President has been 
named as an Executive Vice President of the merged bank as well as an 
Executive Vice President of the Company. The Executive Officers of Mid-State 
have been appointed as the Executive Officers of both the Company and the 
Bank following the resignation of the Company/Bank's current executive 
officers. The signing of this Agreement, along with the Agreement itself, 
were reported to the SEC on February 4, 1998, on a Form 8-K. On March 18, 
1998, the Company filed (with the SEC) a registration statement on Form S-4, 
which was declared effective on May 14, 1998. The Company held its 1998 
Annual Shareholders Meeting on June 18,1998. The merger is intended to close 
during the third quarter of 1998 and has been approved by the government 
regulatory agencies and the shareholders of both the Company and Mid-State 
Bank.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets for the first half of 1998, increased 5.6% to $338.5 million in 
comparison to total assets of $320.5 million for the first half of 1997. Cash 
and cash equivalents increased by $8.6 million with funds provided primarily 
by the maturation of investment securities. Total investment dollars 
decreased by 16.0% to $94.3 million as of June 30, 1998. Loans declined by 
$5.6 million during the first six months of 1998, compared to a $2.5 million 
decline during the same period in 1997. The percentage of decline was 3.0% 
for 1998, versus a decline of 1.5% for 1997.

There were no material purchases of fixed assets during the first half of 
1998. The Bank's cash flow continues to benefit from several sales of other 
real estate owned properties during the first and second quarters.

Deposits decreased by $6.8 million during the first six months of 1998, in 
comparison to a $1.5 million decline during the same period in 1997. The 
percentage of decrease was 2.3% for 1998, versus .5% decline in 1997. The 
larger 1998 decline appears to be attributable to the runoff of deposit 
dollars associated with the acquisition of El Camino National Bank in January 
of 1997. A certain level of runoff was anticipated by Company management.

The Bank, prior to its acquisition by the Company, paid semi-annual 
dividends, a policy which was first implemented in mid 1996. During the first 
quarter of 1996, the Directors of the Bank paid a $.20 per share annual cash 
dividend which was augmented in August of 1996, with the first semi-annual 
dividend of $.15 per share. In January of 1997, the Bank again paid a $.15 
per share cash dividend. The Company was the beneficiary of two 
organizational dividends from the Bank during 1997. A dividend in the amount 
of $150,000 payable in March, 1997, and a dividend in the amount of $700,000 
payable in August, 1997. With the Company now fully organized, a $.20 per 
share cash dividend was declared in July, 1997, payable on August 15, 1997. 
In January 1998, the Company declared a $.30 per share cash dividend, payable 
in February of 1998. The Bank declared a $800,000 cash dividend to provide 
cash for the Company's dividend as well as operating capital. In addition, 
the exercise of stock options by Bank employees, provided approximately 
$767,500 in cash to the Company. Both the Bank and the Company maintain 
strong liquidity positions.

A provision of the merger Agreement limits the amount of any mid-year 
dividend, if any, by the Company to $.10 per share. Due to the consummation 
of the merger on July 14, 1998, a mid-year dividend will not be declared.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest income on loans was up by $692,000 in the first half of 1998, 
compared with the same period during 1997. The increase in interest income 
was primarily attributable to the increase in average outstanding loans, 
which were up by $15.2 million. The effective yield on the loan portfolio 
declined by approximately .18 basis points.

Interest income on investments, including Federal funds transactions, 
increased by $95,000 during the first half of 1998, over the comparable 
period in 1997. This increase, as with loans, was primarily attributable to 
the increase in funds available for investment, which was up by $9.4 million. 
The effective yield decreased .25 basis points.

Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was up by $222,000 in the first 
half of 1998, compared with the first half of 1997. The increase in interest 
expense was attributable to the increase in average interest-bearing deposits 
which were up by $9.0 million. The effective rate decreased by 5 basis points.

Net interest margin declined from 5.83% for the first half of 1997, to 5.75% 
for the same period in 1998. The decline in interest income to earning 
assets, by 7 basis points, against a modest 5 basis point decline in interest 
expense to earning assets, tighten the company's overall spread. The 
provision for loan losses of $300,000 is sufficient to bring the allowance 
for loan losses to a balance considered to be adequate to absorb potential 
losses in the portfolio. Management's determination of the adequacy of the 
allowance is based upon a detailed evaluation of the portfolio, current 
economic conditions and trends, historical loan loss experience and other 
risk factors.

Noninterest income increased $141,000 or 8.3% to $1,854,000 as of June 30, 
1998. This increase is primarily the results of increased activity in the 
mortgage banking functions of the Bank. Non interest expenses decreased 
$165,000 or 2.5% to $6,512,000 as of June 30, 1998. While there are some 
fluctuations in operating expenses due to the El Camino merger and the 
opening of the Atascadero Branch in the first half of 1997, the primarily 
reason for the decrease in 1998 is due to recurring expenses no longer paid 
by the Company due to the merger with Mid-State Bank.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company and its bank subsidiary are subject to risk-based capital 
regulations adopted by the federal banking regulators. These guidelines are 
used to evaluate capital adequacy and are based upon an institution's asset 
risk profile and off-balance sheet exposures, such as unused loan commitments 
and letters of credit. The following table sets forth the Company's and the 
Bank's leverage and risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 1998:

Excess                       $20,713     9.09%     $19,692     8.66%


The management of the Company is not aware of any trends, events, uncertainties
or recommendations by regulatory authorities that will have or that are
reasonably likely to have material effect on the liquidity, capital resources or
operations of the Company with the exception of the proposed merger with
Mid-State Bank. The effects of this merger will be accretive to earnings in
1999, and should have positive effects to both capital resources and liquidity
during 1998.
