Mergers and Acquisitions |
Mergers and Acquisitions | Note 4 — Mergers and Acquisitions Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc. (“Atlantic Capital” or “ACBI”) ​ On March 1, 2022, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Atlantic Capital in a stock transaction. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Atlantic Capital merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the merger. Immediately following the merger, Atlantic Capital’s wholly owned banking subsidiary, Atlantic Capital Bank, N.A. (“ACB”) merged with and into the Bank, which continues as the surviving bank. Shareholders of Atlantic Capital received 0.36 shares of the Company’s common stock for each share of Atlantic Capital common stock they owned. In total, the purchase price for Atlantic Capital was $657.8 million. ​ In the acquisition, the Company acquired $2.4 billion of loans, including PPP loans, at fair value, net of $54.3 million, or 2.24%, estimated discount to the outstanding principal balance, representing 10.0% of the Company’s total loans at December 31, 2021. Of the total loans acquired, management identified $137.9 million that had more than insignificantly deteriorated since origination and were thus determined to be PCD loans. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805. The Company recognized goodwill on this acquisition of $342.0 million. The goodwill was calculated based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. ​ During three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred approximately $1.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of acquisition costs related to this transaction. These acquisition costs are reported in Merger and Branch Consolidation Related Expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income. ​ The Atlantic Capital transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. ​

These results combine the historical results of Atlantic Capital in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2022. ​ Merger-related costs of $5.6 million from the Atlantic Capital acquisition were incurred during the first quarter of 2022 and were excluded from pro forma information below. No adjustments have been made to reduce the impact of any OREO write downs, investment securities sold or repayment of borrowings recognized by Atlantic Capital in 2022. The core system conversion for the Atlantic Capital merger was completed during third quarter of 2022. The Company expects to achieve further operating cost savings and other business synergies as a result of the acquisition, which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts below.

​ The disclosures regarding the results of operations for Atlantic Capital subsequent to the acquisition date are omitted as this information is not practical to obtain. The majority of the fixed costs and purchase accounting entries were booked on the Company’s core system making it impractical to determine Atlantic Capital’s results of operation on a stand-alone basis.
