Recent acquisition activities

Charles Stanley

On January 21, 2022, we completed our acquisition of all of the outstanding share capital of United Kingdom (“U.K.”)-based Charles Stanley Group PLC (“Charles Stanley”) at a price of £5.15 per share, or £274 million ($372 million as of January 21, 2022). As of December 31, 2021, we had segregated $385 million in cash to fund the acquisition on the closing date, which was included in “Assets segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The acquisition enables us to accelerate our financial planning, investment advisory and securities transaction services growth in the U.K. and, through Charles Stanley’s multiple affiliation options, gives us the ability to offer wealth management affiliation choices to financial advisors in the U.K. consistent with our Private Client Group (“PCG”) model in the U.S. and Canada. For purposes of certain acquisition-related financial reporting requirements, the Charles Stanley acquisition is not considered a material acquisition. Charles Stanley will be integrated into our PCG segment and its results of operations will be included in our results prospectively from the closing date of January 21, 2022.

TriState Capital

On October 20, 2021, we announced we had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire TriState Capital Holdings, Inc. (“TriState Capital”) in a combination cash and stock transaction, valued at approximately $1.1 billion. Under the terms of the agreement, TriState Capital common stockholders will receive $6.00 cash and 0.25 RJF shares for each share of TriState Capital common stock, which represents per share consideration of $31.09 based on the closing price of RJF common stock on October 19, 2021. We have entered into an agreement with the sole holder of the TriState Capital Series C Perpetual Non-Cumulative Convertible Non-Voting Preferred Stock (“Series C Convertible Preferred Stock”) pursuant to which the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will be converted to common shares at the prescribed exchange ratio and cashed out at $30 per share. The TriState Capital Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and Series B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) will remain outstanding and will be converted into equivalent preferred stock of RJF. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and approval by TriState Capital shareholders, is expected to close later in fiscal 2022. We currently have the ability to utilize our cash on hand to fund the cash component of the acquisition. TriState Capital offers private banking, commercial banking, and investment management products and services. TriState Capital will continue to operate as a separately branded firm and as an independently-charted bank subsidiary upon closing of the acquisition.

On December 15, 2021, we loaned TriState Capital $125 million under an unsecured fixed-to-floating rate note (the “Note”). The Note matures on December 15, 2024 and bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 2.25% for the first year, and at a floating annual rate thereafter until maturity. The floating rate resets quarterly to a rate equal to the then current three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 2.11%. The Note is not redeemable prior to December 15, 2022. On and after December 15, 2022, the Note is redeemable on any interest payment date at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. As of December 31, 2021, the outstanding Note balance of $125 million and the related accrued interest was included in “Other receivables, net” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
