Business Combination Description [Abstract] |
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 3 – BUSINESS COMBINATION The Corporation made no acquisitions or any other business combinations during the year s ended December 31, 201 7 and 2016. On February 27, 2015, FirstBank acquired 10 Puerto Rico branches of Doral Bank, assumed $522.7 million in deposits related to such branches, acquired loans that had an approximate principal balance of $324.8 million, primarily residential mortgage loans, acquired $5.5 million of property, plant and equipment and received $217.7 million of cash, thr ough an alliance with Popular, who was the successful lead bidder with the FDIC on the failed Doral Bank, as well as other co-bidders. This transaction solidified FirstBank as the second largest bank in Puerto Rico, enhanced FirstBank’s presence in geogr aphical areas in Puerto Rico with growth potential for deposits and mortgage originations (two of the main business strategies of FirstBank), and provided a stable source of low-cost deposits. Under the FDIC’s bidding format, Popular was the lead bidder a nd party to the purchase and assumption agreement with the FDIC covering all assets and deposits to be acquired by Popular and the co-bidders. Popular entered into back to back purchase assumption agreements with the co-bidders, including FirstBank, for th e transferred assets and deposits. There is no loss-share arrangement with the FDIC related to the acquired assets, meaning that FirstBank assumed all losses with respect to such assets, with no financial assistance from the FDIC.
The Corporation accounted for this transaction as a business combination. The following table identifies the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Doral Bank on February 27, 2015:
| Asset/Liabilities |  |
| (at Fair Value) |  |
(In thousands) |  |  |  |
ASSETS |  |  |  |
Cash | $ | 217,659 |  |
Loans |  | 311,410 |  |
Premises and equipment, net |  | 5,450 |  |
Core Deposit Intangible |  | 5,820 |  |
Total assets acquired |  | 540,339 |  |
LIABILITIES |  |  |  |
Deposits |  | 523,517 |  |
Other liabilities |  | 3,379 |  |
Net assets - Bargain purchase gain | $ | 13,443 |  |
The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in a bargain purchase gain of $13.4 million, which is included in non-interest income in the Corporation’s consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2015, and a core deposit intangible of $5.8 million ($3.7 million - December 31, 2017; $4.4 million - December 31, 2016). Before the bargain purchase gain recognition, the Corporation reassessed whether all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed had been appropriat ely identified, recognized and measured. The net after-tax gain of $8.2 million represents the excess of the estimated fair value of the assets acquired (including cash payments received from the FDIC) over the estimated fair value of the liabilities assum ed. The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above: Cash and due from banks – The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets. This balance primarily represents the cash settlement received from Popular for the net equity received, the discount bid for the assets and other customary closing adjustments. Loans – Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that uses market-driven assumptions such as prepayment rate, default rate, and loss severity on a loan level basis. The forecasted cash flows were then discounted by yields observed in sales of similar portfolios in Pu erto Rico and the continental U.S. The Corporation evaluated the residential mortgage loans acquired and determined that $227.9 million were non-credit impaired purchased loans, which were accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, and were recorded with a premium of $1.3 million. The remaining approximately $93.3 million of residential mortgage loans were considered purchased credit impaired loans within the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 3 10-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, and were recorded with a $13.4 million discount. The Corporation recognizes interest income on these purchased credit impaired loans through accretion of the difference between the fair value of the l oans and the expected cash flows. Core deposit intangible – This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that Doral Bank had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash f low methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, the cost of the deposit base, and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. The Corporation recorded at acquisition $5.8 million of core deposit int angible. Deposits – The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the transaction accounts acquired, by definition, equal the amounts payable on demand at the acquisition date. A fair value adjustment of $0.8 million was applied for time deposits because the estimated weighted-average interest rate of the assumed certificates of deposits was estimated to be above the then prevailing market rates. ASC Topic 805 requires the measurement of all recognized assets acquired and liab ilities assumed in a business combination at their acquisition-date fair values. Accordingly, the Corporation initially recorded amounts for the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the best information available at the acqui sition date. The Corporation could retrospectively adjust these amounts to reflect new information obtained during the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months) about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the acquisition-date fair value measurements. No retrospective adjustments to acquisition date fair values were recorded. During 2015, the Corporation incurred $4.6 million for acquisition and conversion costs related to loans and deposit accounts acquired from Doral Bank that are considered non-recurring in nature, and $3.6 million on interim servicing costs until the completion in May 2015 of the conversion to the FirstBank systems. These expenses are primarily included as part of profess ional fees in the consolidated statement of income. The Corporation’s operating results for the year ended December 31, 2015 include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the acquisition date. The Corporation a lso considered the pro forma requirements of ASC 805 and deemed it not necessary to provide pro forma financial information pursuant to that standard for the Doral Bank transaction as it was not material to the Corporation.
