Mergers and Acquisitions

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2020

On February 29, 2020, the Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of State Bank Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, State Bank of Arizona, a community bank based in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. SBAZ has been merged into The Foothills Bank division of Glacier Bank. SBAZ provides banking services to individuals and businesses in Arizona with locations in Bullhead City, Cottonwood, Kingman, Lake Havasu City, Phoenix, Prescott Valley and Prescott. The preliminary value of the SBAZ acquisition was $125,854,000 and resulted in the Company issuing 3,007,044 shares of its common stock and paying $13,721,000 in cash in exchange for all of SBAZ’s outstanding common stock shares. The fair value of the Company shares issued was determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the February 29, 2020 acquisition date. The excess of the preliminary fair value of consideration transferred over total identifiable net assets was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and SBAZ. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes as the acquisition was accounted for as a tax-free exchange.

The assets and liabilities of SBAZ were recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition at their preliminary estimated fair values as of the acquisition date and the results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations since that date. The following table discloses the preliminary fair value estimates of the consideration transferred, the total identifiable net assets acquired and the resulting goodwill arising from the SBAZ acquisition. The Company is continuing to obtain information to determine the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
