Acquisition of Metropolitan BancGroup, Inc.

Effective July 1, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of Metropolitan BancGroup, Inc. (“Metropolitan”), the parent company of Metropolitan Bank, in a transaction valued at approximately $219,461. The Company issued 4,883,182 shares of common stock and paid approximately $4,764 to Metropolitan stock option holders for 100% of the voting equity interest in Metropolitan.

The Company recorded approximately $147,478 in intangible assets which consist of goodwill of $140,512 and a core deposit intangible of $6,966. Goodwill resulted from a combination of revenue enhancements from expansion in existing markets and efficiencies resulting from operational synergies. The fair value of the core deposit intangible is being amortized on an accelerated basis over the estimated useful life, currently expected to be approximately 10 years. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial information presents the results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 of the Company as though the Metropolitan merger had been completed as of January 1, 2016 (and the KeyWorth merger, discussed below, was still completed on April 1, 2016). The unaudited estimated pro forma information combines the historical results of Metropolitan with the Company’s historical consolidated results and includes certain adjustments reflecting the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments for the periods presented. The pro forma information is not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2016. The pro forma information does not include the effect of any cost-saving or revenue-enhancing strategies. Merger expenses are reflected in the period in which they were incurred.



	Twelve Months Ended
	December 31,
	2017		2016
Net interest income - pro forma (unaudited)	$	356,787	$	340,796

Net income - pro forma (unaudited)	$	89,554	$	102,881

Earnings per share - pro forma (unaudited):
Basic	$	1.82	$	2.21
Diluted	$	1.81	$	2.19

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 include the impact of Metropolitan’s operations since the acquisition date. Due to the system conversion during the third quarter of 2017 and the integration of Metropolitan’s operating activities into the Company’s existing operations, historical reporting for Metropolitan operations is impracticable, and, therefore, disclosure of the amounts of revenue and expenses of Metropolitan included in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income since the acquisition date is impracticable.
