SECTION 2 — FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2.02 — Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 25, 2006, Mid-State Bancshares reported diluted earnings of $0.39 per share for the third quarter of 2006 on net income of $8.9 million.

Results in the quarter continued to be impacted by increased non-interest expense compared to the prior year reflecting, primarily, increases in staffing for growth and compliance, benefit cost increases and adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments,” which changes the method of accounting for costs of stock options and other equity compensation.  The adoption of the new accounting statement alone reduced earnings by approximately $419,000 after tax, or $0.02 per share.  Net income for the third quarter of 2005 was $9.5 million, or $0.41 per share.

For the first nine months of 2006, net income was $26.6 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, compared to $28.1 million and $1.20 per share for the first nine months of 2005.  Adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) reduced 2006 earnings by approximately $1.2 million after tax for the first nine months, or $0.05 per share.

Please refer to the Press Release dated October 25, 2006, attached hereto and made a part hereof.
