Completed Acquisitions

Bancorp Financial

On July 1, 2025, the Company completed its acquisition of Bancorp Financial and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Evergreen Bank Group, based in Oakbrook, Illinois, with operations throughout our existing market footprint as well as a loan production office in Reno, Nevada.  This acquisition brought increased scale and new markets to the Company and provided new product offerings and line of business opportunities.  At closing, the Company acquired $1.43 billion of assets, $1.20 billion of loans, $119.1 million of securities, and $1.23 billion of deposits, net of fair value adjustments. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Bancorp Financial common stock was exchanged for 2.5814 shares of the Company’s common stock, plus $15.93 of cash. This resulted in merger consideration of $189.4 million, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of acquisition, which consisted of 7.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock and $48.9 million of cash.  Goodwill of $36.0 million associated with the acquisition was recorded by the Company, which was the result of expected synergies, operational efficiencies and other factors.

The acquisition of Bancorp Financial has been accounted for as a business combination. The Company recorded the estimate of fair value based on initial valuations available at July 1, 2025. The determination of estimated fair value required management to make assumptions related to discount rates, expected future cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are often subjective in nature and may require adjustments, which can be subject to adjustment for additional information received during the measurement period which cannot extend beyond July 1, 2026.  None of the $36.0 million of goodwill recorded is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The following table provides the purchase price allocation as of the July 1, 2025, acquisition of Bancorp Financial for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the purchase date, as recorded by the Company:

Expenses related to the Bancorp Financial acquisition totaled $875,000 and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The expenses related to the acquisition are reported within noninterest expense based on the line items impacted, which are primarily salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment, computer and data processing, legal fees, and other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2026, all acquisition related expenses have been reported and the measurement period is closed.

Purchased loans and leases that reflect a more-than-insignificant deterioration of credit from origination are considered purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans. For PCD loans, the initial estimate of expected credit losses was recognized in the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on the date of acquisition using the same methodology as other loans and leases held-for-investment. The following table provides a summary of loans purchased as part of the Bancorp Financial acquisition which were individually evaluated and determined to be PCD loans at acquisition.
