CADENCE BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Cadence Bancorporation (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation and a bank holding company whose primary asset is its investment in its wholly owned subsidiary bank, Cadence Bank, N.A., a national banking association (the “Bank”).

 

Note 1—Summary of Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the Company have been prepared in accordance with instructions to the SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X; therefore, they do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All adjustments consisting of normally recurring accruals that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods covered by this report have been included. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Operating results for the period ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018.

The Company and its subsidiaries follow GAAP including, where applicable, general practices within the banking industry. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The assessment of whether or not the Company has a controlling interest (i.e., the primary beneficiary) in a variable-interest entity (“VIE”) is performed on an on-going basis. All equity investments in non-consolidated VIEs are included in “other assets” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets (Note 20).

Certain amounts reported in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the 2018 presentation.  These reclassifications did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of income.  

Nature of Operations

The Company’s subsidiaries include:

 

Town & Country Insurance Agency, Inc., dba Cadence Insurance—full service insurance agency (See “Sale of Subsidiary”)

 

The Bank

The Bank operates under a national bank charter and is subject to regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The Bank provides lending services in Georgia and full banking services in five southern states: Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas.

The Bank’s subsidiaries include:

 

Linscomb & Williams Inc. —financial advisory firm; and

 

Cadence Investment Services, Inc.—provides investment and insurance products,

The Company and the Bank also have certain other non-operating and immaterial subsidiaries.  

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are susceptible to significant change in the near term are the allowance for credit losses, valuation of and accounting for acquired credit impaired loans, valuation of goodwill, intangible assets and deferred income taxes.

Proposed merger with State Bank Financial Corporation (“State Bank”)

 

On May 11, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with State Bank Financial Corporation, a Georgia corporation (“State Bank”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, State Bank will merge with and into Cadence (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger. Immediately following the Merger, State Bank’s wholly owned bank subsidiary, State Bank and Trust Company, will merge with and into the Bank (the “Bank Merger”). The Bank will be the surviving entity in the Bank Merger. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each of the Company and State Bank.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), State Bank shareholders will have the right to receive 1.160 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Cadence Common Stock”) for each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of State Bank (“State Bank Common Stock”). Each State Bank restricted stock award will vest and be cancelled and converted automatically at the Effective Time into the right to receive 1.160 shares of Cadence Common Stock in respect of each share of State Bank Common Stock underlying such award. Each State Bank warrant will be converted automatically at the Effective Time into a warrant to purchase shares of Cadence Common Stock, with the number of underlying shares and per share exercise price adjusted to reflect the Exchange Ratio.  

 

Based on the number of shares of Cadence Class A common stock and State Bank common stock outstanding as of May 11, 2018, the last trading day before public announcement of the merger, it is expected that Cadence stockholders will hold approximately 65%, and State Bank shareholders will hold approximately 35%, of the shares of the combined company outstanding immediately after the merger.

 

The Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the issuance of its common stock in connection with the Merger, which registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 24, 2018. State Bank held a special meeting of shareholders on Tuesday, September 18, 2018 in Atlanta, Georgia, related to its pending merger with the Company. State Bank’s shareholders approved the Merger Agreement pursuant to which State Bank will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation. The Merger is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2018.

 

Sale of Subsidiary

 

On May 31, 2018 the Company completed the sale of the assets of its subsidiary, Town & Country Insurance Agency, Inc. (“T&C”) to an unrelated third party, selling $11.1 million in net assets, including $10.9 million in goodwill and intangibles. This transaction resulted in an pre-tax gain of $4.9 million recorded in noninterest income, offset by $1.1 million in sale related expenses recorded in noninterest expenses during the second quarter of 2018.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (ASU 2014-09), which is intended to improve and converge the financial reporting requirements for revenue contracts with customers. Previous accounting guidance comprised broad revenue recognition concepts along with numerous industry-specific requirements. The new guidance establishes a five-step model which entities must follow to recognize revenue and removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in existing guidance. Our major sources of revenue are from financial instruments that have been excluded from the scope of the new standard (including loans, derivatives, debt and equity securities, etc.). The standard required us to change how we recognize certain recurring revenue streams within insurance commissions and fees and other categories of noninterest income. The adoption at January 1, 2018 of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.    

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.”  ASU 2016-1, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheets, (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, (v) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheets or the accompanying notes to the financial statements and (viii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation

9


allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale. The adoption at January 1, 2018 of ASU 2016-01 resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings of $1.0 million at January 1, 2018 related to fair value measurement changes to equity securities and certain limited partnership investments (See Notes 2, 16 and 20).    

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”, to reduce current diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows.  The adoption at January 1, 2018 of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business”, which introduces amendments that are intended to clarify the definition of a business to assist companies and other reporting organizations with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The amendments are intended to narrow the current interpretation of a business.  The adoption at January 1, 2018 of ASU No. 2017-01 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715):  Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Costs,” to improve the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost.  The amendments require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period.  The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented.  The amendments also allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable.  The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2018, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”, which clarifies when modification accounting should be applied to changes in terms or conditions of share-based payment awards. The amendments narrow the scope of modification accounting by clarifying that modification accounting should be applied to awards if the change affects the fair value, vesting conditions, or classification of the award. The amendments do not impact current disclosure requirements for modifications, regardless of whether modification accounting is required under the new guidance. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 at January 1, 2018 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. 

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” ASU 2017-12 amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815 to improve the transparency and understandability of information conveyed to financial statement users about an entity’s risk management activities to better align the entity’s financial reporting for hedging relationships with those risk management activities and to reduce the complexity of and simplify the application of hedge accounting. The Company elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU 2017-12 at January 1, 2018 which did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”. This ASU requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities generated by contracts longer than a year on their balance sheets. The ASU also requires companies to disclose in the footnotes to their financial statements information about the amount, timing, and uncertainty for the payments they make for the lease agreements. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance.

In June 2016, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. The guidance is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. The guidance will replace the current incurred loss accounting model with an expected loss approach and requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The guidance requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test.  Therefore, any carrying amount which exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value (up to the amount of goodwill recorded) will be recognized as an impairment loss.  ASU No. 2017-04 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim reporting periods within those periods.  The amendments will be applied prospectively on or after the effective date.  Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed

10


on testing dates after January 1, 2017.  Based on recent goodwill impairments tests, which did not require the application of Step 2, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have an immediate impact.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, “Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities”, which will shorten the amortization period for callable debt securities held at a premium to the earliest call date instead of the maturity date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount, which will continue to be amortized to the maturity date. ASU No. 2017-08 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those periods. The amendments should be applied using a modified-retrospective transition method as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently assessing this pronouncement and it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
