MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS | NOTE 2. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS CrossFirst Bankshares, Inc. On August 26, 2024, Busey and CrossFirst, a Kansas corporation, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, CrossFirst will merge with and into Busey, with Busey as the surviving corporation in the merger (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement further provides that at a date and time following the Merger as determined by Busey, CrossFirst Bank, a Kansas state-chartered bank and a wholly owned subsidiary of CrossFirst, will merge with and into Busey Bank, with Busey Bank as the surviving bank (the “Bank Merger”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of CrossFirst common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than certain shares held by CrossFirst or Busey, will be converted into the right to receive 0.6675 of a share of Busey common stock. Upon completion of the Merger, holders of Busey common stock (“Busey stockholders”) will own approximately 63.5% of the combined company and holders of CrossFirst common stock (“CrossFirst stockholders”) will own approximately 36.5% of the combined company, on a fully-diluted basis. Completion of the merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of both Busey stockholders and CrossFirst stockholders and the requisite regulatory approvals for the Merger and the Bank Merger. With approvals, the parties expect to close the merger in the first or second quarter of 2025. In connection with the Merger, Busey incurred one-time pre-tax acquisition-related expenses of $1.3 million and $1.5 million during the three and nine months months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Merchants and Manufacturers Bank Corporation Effective April 1, 2024, Busey completed its previously announced acquisition of M&M, pursuant to which Busey acquired M&M and its wholly-owned subsidiary, M&M Bank, through a merger transaction. This partnership added M&M’s Life Equity Loan® products to Busey’s existing suite of services and expands Busey’s presence in the suburban Chicago market. M&M’s results of operations were included in Busey’s results of operation beginning April 1, 2024. Merger of M&M Bank into Busey Bank Busey operated M&M Bank as a separate banking subsidiary of Busey until it was merged with Busey Bank on June 21, 2024. At the time of the bank merger, M&M Bank’s banking centers became banking centers of Busey Bank, except for M&M’s banking center located at 990 Essington Rd., Joliet, Illinois, which was closed in connection with the bank merger. Merger Consideration At the effective time of the Merger, each share of M&M common stock converted to the right to receive, at the election of each stockholder and subject to proration and adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, either (1) $117.74 in cash (“Cash Election”), (2) 5.7294 shares of Busey common stock (“Share Election”), or (3) mixed consideration of $34.55 in cash and 4.0481 shares of Busey common stock (“Mixed Election”). Most of the M&M common stockholders who submitted an election form by the election deadline made the Share Election to receive their Merger consideration solely in the form of shares of Busey common stock. As a result of the elections of M&M common stockholders, and in accordance with the proration and adjustment provisions of the Merger Agreement, the Merger consideration paid to M&M common stockholders was comprised of an aggregate of 1,429,304 shares of Busey common stock and an aggregate of $12.2 million in cash, allocated as follows for each share of M&M stock: (1) $117.74 in cash for the Cash Election, (2) $5.3966 in cash and 5.4668 shares of Busey common stock for the Share Election, and (3) $34.55 in cash and 4.0481 shares of Busey common stock for the Mixed Election. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, M&M common stockholders that did not make an election or submit a properly completed election form by the election deadline of March 29, 2024, received cash consideration of $117.74 for each share of M&M common stock held. No fractional shares of Busey common stock were issued in the Merger. Fractional shares were paid in cash at the rate of $23.32 per share. Additional Merger consideration of $3.0 million was paid to redeem 300 shares of M&M preferred stock. Acquisition Accounting This transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on April 1, 2024, the date of acquisition. Fair values, including initial accounting for deferred taxes, are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date as additional information regarding the closing date fair values becomes available. As the total consideration paid for M&M exceeded the estimated fair value of net assets acquired, goodwill of $15.6 million was recorded as a result of the acquisition. Goodwill recorded for this transaction reflects synergies expected from the acquisition and expansion within the Chicago metropolitan market, and was assigned to the Banking operating segment. None of the goodwill recognized in the M&M acquisition is expected to be tax deductible.
