Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 6, 2019 RBB Bancorp issued a press release (Exhibit 99.3) announcing that it entered into a definitive merger agreement with PGB Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Pacific Global Bank (collectively referred to herein as “Pacific Global Bank” or “PGB”), whereby RBB will acquire PGB in a cash transaction valued at approximately $32.5 million.
Under the terms of the definitive agreement, RBB will pay to PGB shareholders approximately $32.5 million in cash. RBB expects the transaction to be accretive to earnings per share in 2020 in the high single digit range. RBB also expects to incur tangible book value per share dilution of approximately 3.9% upon closing of the transaction, with a tangible book value dilution payback period of approximately 3.3 years. The earnings per share accretion estimates are based on estimated cost savings of approximately 30% of PGB’s non-interest expense, with the cost savings phased in during 2020. The earnings per share accretion estimates do not include any assumption of revenue synergies. The transaction is expected to close in early first quarter of 2020 and is subject to the Company obtaining all of the regulatory approvals as well as other customary closing conditions.
On September 6, 2019 RBB Bancorp made available on its website an investor presentation regarding the definitive merger agreement with PGB (Exhibit 99.2), which will be made in person to various investors and other parties through December 31, 2019.
