FNB and BCSB Bancorp have received all required regulatory clearances for the proposed merger of both firms, which will boost their business footprint in the Baltimore metropolitan statistical area (MSA).
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of the Commissioner of Financial Regulation of the Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation, have approved the merger of BCSB Bancorp’s subsidiary Baltimore County Savings Bank, into FNB’s subsidiary First National Bank of Pennsylvania.
FNB president and CEO Vincent Delie said, "F.N.B.’s significant investments in experienced personnel and risk management systems enable us to maintain our core competency of merger integration."
In June this year, FNB agreed to purchase BCSB Bancorp, in an all stock transaction valued at approximately $23.77 per share, or $79m.
Post-acquisition, FNB will get an additional $640m in total assets, including $560m in total deposits, $320m in loans and 16 bank branches in the greater Baltimore, Maryland area.
RBC Capital Markets served as financial advisor to FNB, and Sandler O’Neill + Partners acted as financial advisor to BCSB Bancorp, and rendered a fairness opinion to the board of directors of BCSB Bancorp.
