5.    ACQUISITION OF CLIFTON BANCORP INC.

On April 2, 2018, the Company completed its acquisition of Clifton Bancorp Inc. (“Clifton”), the parent company of Clifton Savings Bank, a federally chartered stock savings bank.  In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company acquired assets with aggregate fair values totaling $1.61 billion including loans and securities with fair values of $1.12 billion and $326.9 million, respectively.  The Company assumed liabilities with aggregate fair values totaling $1.38 billion in conjunction with the Clifton acquisition including deposits and borrowings with fair values of $949.8 million and $414.1 million, respectively.

Merger consideration associated with the acquisition totaled $333.9 million and primarily comprised 25.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $330.7 million that were issued to Clifton stockholders to reflect an exchange of 1.191 of Company shares for each outstanding share of Clifton common stock at the time of closing.  Merger consideration also included $3.2 million in cash distributed to eligible holders of outstanding options to purchase Clifton stock as well as cash distributed to Clifton stockholders for the settlement of fractional shares.  The amount by which merger consideration exceeds the fair value of net assets acquired resulted in the Company’s recognition of $102.3 million in goodwill associated with the Clifton acquisition.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible were recorded at their fair values as of April 2, 2018 based on management’s best estimate using the information available as of the merger date.  The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill of $102.3 million and a core deposit intangible of $6.4 million.  Accounting guidance provides that an acquirer must recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period, which runs through April 2, 2019, in the measurement period in which the adjustment amounts are determined.  The acquirer must record in the financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization or other income effects, if any, as a result of the changes to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. During the year ended June 30, 2019, the Company completed all tax returns related to the operation of the combined entities through June 30, 2018 and determined that there were no material adjustments to the balance of income taxes or goodwill associated with the Clifton acquisition.
