Accounting Policies [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	NOTE A — BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31 2016, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 or any other period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements required the use of certain estimates by management in determining the Company’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Specific areas, among others, requiring the application of management’s estimates include determination of the allowance and provision for loan losses, acquisition accounting and purchased loans the valuation of investment securities available for sale, fair value of impaired loans, contingent liabilities, fair value of other real estate owned, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS, Not adopted as of March 31, 2016	The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09. The ASU is a converged standard between the FASB and the IASB that provides a single comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers across transactions and industries. The primary objective of the ASU is revenue recognition that represents the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU is effective on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted January 1, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-09. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 for “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities”. The ASU addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The update requires: a) equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting) to be measured at fair value and recognized in net income, b) simplifies impairment assessments of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, and if impaired requires measurement of the investment at fair value, c) eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value d) requires entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, e) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, f) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements, g) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and must be adopted on a modified retrospective basis, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 is being evaluated for its impact on the Company’s operating results and financial condition. In February 2016, the FASB amended existing guidance related to the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosures on key information about leasing arrangements, under ASU 2016-2. It will be necessary for all parties to classify leases to determine how to recognize lease-related revenue and expense. The amendment requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheet and record expenses to the income statement. Changes in the guidance eliminate real estate centric provisions for sale-leaseback transactions, including initial direct costs and lease execution costs for all entities. For lessors, the new FASB standard modifies classification criteria and accounting for sales type and direct financing leases. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements. The amended accounting is applicable periods after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within that year. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on its operating results and financial condition. In March 2016, under ASU 2016-04, “Liabilities – Extinguishments of Liabilities, Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products” the FASB intends for entities to recognize liabilities for the sale of prepaid stored value products redeemable for goods, services, or cash. This guidance aligns recognition of breakage for these liabilities in a way consistent with how gift card breakage will be recognized. Effective date for implementation is for annual periods after December 15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-04 on its operating results and financial condition. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 for “Compensation—Stock Compensation, Improvements to Employee Share Based Payments Accounting.” The guidance will alter the manner in which companies account for share based payments to employees. Entities will be required to immediately recognize income tax effects of awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. Additional paid-in capital pools will be eliminated. This change is effective for fiscal years after December 15, 2016, and interim periods with that year. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-09 on its operating results and financial condition.

The excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan in situations where there is a reasonable expectation about the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected. The difference between the contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. We have applied ASC Topic 310-20 accounting treatment to PULs. The unamortized fair value mark established at acquisition on the loans has been ascribed as an accretable yield that is accreted into interest income over the estimated remaining life of the loans. We adjusted our estimates of future expected losses, cash flows and renewal assumptions during the current quarter for PCI loans.

Under the Company’s risk rating system, the Company classifies problem and potential problem loans as “Special Mention,” “Substandard,” and “Doubtful” and these loans are monitored on an ongoing basis. Substandard loans include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as Doubtful, have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The principal balance of loans classified as doubtful are generally charged off. Loans that do not currently expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but possess weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention are deemed to be Special Mention. Risk ratings are updated any time the situation warrants. Loans not meeting the criteria above are considered to be pass-rated loans and risk grades are recalculated at least annually by the loan relationship manager.

Impaired Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses	NOTE F — IMPAIRED LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES During the three months ending March 31, 2016 and 2015, the total of newly identified Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) totaled $1.0 million and $ 1.0 The Company’s TDR concessions granted generally do not include forgiveness of principal balances. Loan modifications are not reported in calendar years after modification if the loans were modified at an interest rate equal to the yields of new loan originations with comparable risk and the loans are performing based on the terms of the restructuring agreements. When a loan is modified as a TDR, there is not a direct, material impact on the loans within the consolidated balance sheet, as principal balances are generally not forgiven. Most loans prior to modification were classified as an impaired loan and the allowance for loan losses is determined in accordance with Company policy. Pre- Post- Modification Modification Number Outstanding Outstanding Specific Valuation of Recorded Recorded Reserve Allowance (Dollars in thousands) Contracts Investment Investment Recorded Recorded Residential real estate 2 $ 491 $ 470 $ 0 $ 21 Total 2 $ 491 $ 470 $ 0 $ 21 The following table presents loans that were modified within the three months ending March 31, 2015: Pre- Post- Modification Modification Number Outstanding Outstanding Specific Valuation of Recorded Recorded Reserve Allowance (Dollars in thousands) Contracts Investment Investment Recorded Recorded Residential real estate 2 $ 911 $ 859 $ 0 $ 52 Total 2 $ 911 $ 859 $ 0 $ 52 Only 2 contracts with a pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investment of $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, were modified during the three month period ended March 31, 2016, compared to 2 contracts with a pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investment of $ 0.9 0.9 No accruing loans that were restructured within the twelve months preceding March 31, 2016 defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2016, and no loans restructured within the twelve months preceding March 31, 2015 defaulted during the twelve months ended March 31, 2015. The Company considers a loan to have defaulted when it becomes 90 days or more delinquent under the modified terms, has been transferred to nonaccrual status, or has been transferred to other real estate owned. A defaulted TDR is generally placed on nonaccrual and specific allowance for loan loss is assigned in accordance with the Company’s policy.

(2) Recurring fair value basis determined using observable market data. (3) See Note F for nonrecurring fair value adjustments to loans identified as impaired reflect full or partial write-downs that are based on the loan’s observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral in accordance with ASC 310. (4) Fair value is measured on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with ASC 360 . The fair value of impaired real estate loans which are collateral dependent is based on recent real estate appraisals less estimated costs of sale. For residential real estate impaired loans, appraised values or internal evaluation are based on the comparative sales approach. These impaired loans are considered level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. For commercial and commercial real estate impaired loans, evaluations may use either a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches, such as comparative sales, cost and/or income approach. A significant unobservable input in the income approach is the estimated capitalization rate for a given piece of collateral. At March 31, 2016 the range of capitalization rates utilized to determine fair value of the underlying collateral averaged approximately 7.9%. Adjustments to comparable sales may be made by an appraiser to reflect local market conditions or other economic factors and may result in changes in the fair value of an asset over time. As such, the fair value of these impaired loans is considered level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans measured at fair value total $5.5 million with a specific reserve of $2.2 million at March 31, 2016, compared to $ 7.5 2.9 Fair value of available for sale securities are determined using valuation techniques for individual investments as described in Note D. When appraisals are used to determine fair value and the appraisals are based on a market approach, the fair value of other real estate owned (“OREO”) is classified as a level 2 input. When the fair value of OREO is based on appraisals which require significant adjustments to market-based valuation inputs or apply an income approach based on unobservable cash flows, the fair value of OREO is classified as Level 3. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized on the actual date of the event or circumstances that caused the transfer, which generally coincides with the Company’s monthly and/or quarter-end valuation process. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were no transfers between level 1 and level 2 assets carried at fair value. For loans classified as level 3 the transfers in totaled $0.1 million for the first three months of 2016, consisting of loans that became impaired during 2016. Transfers out consisted of charge-offs of $0.1 million, and loan foreclosures migrating to OREO and other reductions (including principal payments) totaling $0.6 million. Charge-offs recognized upon loan foreclosures are generally offset by general or specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses and generally do not, and did not during the reported periods, significantly impact the Company’s provision for loan losses. For OREO classified as level 3 during the first three months of 2016, foreclosed loans transferred in totaled $2.2 million. Transfers out summed to $1.3 million, consisting entirely of sales.

The short maturity of Seacoast’s assets and liabilities results in having a significant number of financial instruments whose fair value equals or closely approximates carrying value. Such financial instruments are reported in the following balance sheet captions: cash and cash equivalents, interest bearing deposits with other banks, federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase, maturing within 30 days. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015: Securities : U.S. Treasury securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs. Other securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. The Company reviews the prices supplied by the independent pricing service, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. In general, the Company does not purchase investment portfolio securities that are esoteric or that have a complicated structure. The Company’s portfolio consists of traditional investments, nearly all of which are U.S. Treasury obligations, federal agency bullet or mortgage pass-through securities, or general obligation or revenue based municipal bonds. Pricing for such instruments is fairly generic and is easily obtained. The fair value of collateralized loan obligations are determined from broker quotes. From time to time, the Company will validate, on a sample basis, prices supplied by the independent pricing service by comparison to prices obtained from other brokers and third-party sources or derived using internal models. Loans : Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, mortgage, etc. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms and by performing and nonperforming categories. The fair value of loans, except residential mortgages, is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risks inherent in the loan. For residential mortgage loans, fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusting for prepayment assumptions using discount rates based on secondary market sources. The estimated fair value is not an exit price fair value under ASC 820 when this valuation technique is used. Loans held for sale : Fair values are based upon estimated values to be received from independent third party purchasers. These loans are intended for sale and the Company believes that the fair value is the best indicator of the resolution of these loans. Interest income is recorded based on the contractual terms of the loan and in accordance with Company’s policy on loans held for investment. None of the loans are 90 days or more past due or on nonaccrual as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for funding of similar remaining maturities. Borrowings : The fair value of floating rate borrowings is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed rate borrowings is estimated using the rates currently offered for borrowings of similar remaining maturities. Subordinated debt : The fair value of the floating rate subordinated debt was based on independent third party analysis, that included discounted cash flow analysis, assessments of the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar instruments, and market quotes for

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combinations	NOTE K — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Acquisition of Grand Bankshares, Inc. On July 17, 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of Grand Bankshares, Inc. (“Grand”) whereby Grand was merged with and into the Company. Grand’s subsidiary bank, Grand Bank & Trust of Florida (“GB”) was simultaneously merged with and into Seacoast National Bank. The Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common and preferred stock of Grand. The total purchase price was $18.7 million. With the acquisition, the Company further solidified its market share in the attractive Palm Beach market, expanding its customer base and leveraging operating costs through economies of scale, enhancing its fee income and positively affecting its net interest income operating results. The acquisition contributed $ 188.4 111.3 The acquisition of Grand constitutes a business combination and was accounted for under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values. The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change, and in some instances rely on use of third party experts. These fair value estimates are considered preliminary and are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information becomes available. No goodwill was recognized for this whole bank acquisition that resulted in a bargain purchase gain of $ 416,000 2.6 Acquisition of Floridian Financial Group, Inc. On March 11, 2016, the Company completed its acquisition of Floridian Financial Group, Inc. (“Floridian”), the parent company of Floridian Bank. Simultaneously, upon completion of the merger, Floridian’s wholly owned subsidiary bank, Floridian Bank, was merged with and into Seacoast National Bank. Floridian, headquartered in Lake Mary, Florida, operated 10 branches in Orlando and Daytona Beach, of which several will consolidate with Seacoast locations. This acquisition added approximately $ 417 337 268 The Company acquired 100 March 11, 2016 Shares exchanged for cash $ 26,699,000 Number of Floridian common shares outstanding 6,222,119 Per share exchange ratio 0.5289 Number of shares of common stock issued 3,291,066 Multiplied by common stock price per share on March 11, 2016 $ 15.47 Value of common stock issued 50,912,791 Total purchase price $ 77,611,791 The fair values listed are preliminary and are subject to adjustment. The acquisition is accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations . The fair values initially assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and could change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as new information and circumstances relative to closing date fair values are known. Determining fair values of assets and liabilities, especially the loan portfolio and foreclosed real estate, is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair Date of acquisition March 11, 2016 Assets: Cash $ 28,243 Investment securities 66,912 Loans, net 268,249 Fixed assets 7,801 Core deposit intangibles 3,375 Goodwill 29,985 Other assets 12,879 $ 417,444 Liabilities: Deposits $ 337,341 Other liabilities 2,492 $ 339,833 March 11, 2016 (Dollars in thousands) Book Balance Fair Value Loans: Single family residential real estate $ 38,304 $ 37,367 Commercial real estate 172,531 167,082 Construction/development/land 20,546 18,108 Commercial loans 39,070 37,804 Consumer and other loans 3,385 3,110 Purchased credit-impaired 6,186 4,778 Total acquired loans $ 280,022 $ 268,249 For the loans acquired we first segregated all acquired loans with specifically identified credit deficiency factor(s). The factors we considered to identify loans as Purchase Credit Impaired (“PCI”) loans were all acquired loans that were nonaccrual, 60 days or more past due, designated as Trouble Debt Restructured (“TDR”), graded “special mention” or “substandard.” These loans were then evaluated to determine estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. As required by generally accepted accounting principles, we are accounting for these loans pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. The table below summarizes the total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and fair value of the loans as of March 11, 2016 for purchased credit impaired loans. (Dollars in thousands) March 11, 2016 Contractually required principal and interest $ 6,870 Non-accretable difference (1,476) Cash flows expected to be collected 5,394 Accretable yield (616) Total purchased credit-impaired loan acquired $ 4,778 Second, loans without specifically identified credit deficiency factors are referred to as Purchased Unimpaired Loans (“PULs”) for disclosure purposes. These loans were then evaluated to determine estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Although no specific credit deficiencies were identifiable, we believe there is an element of risk as to whether all contractual cash flows will be eventually received. Factors that were considered included the economic environment both nationally and locally as well as the real estate market particularly in Florida. We have applied ASC Topic 310-20 accounting treatment to the PULs. The Company believes the deposits assumed from the acquisition have an intangible value. The Company applied ASC Topic 805, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets such as core deposit intangibles, in a business combination. In determining the valuation amount, a third party analyzed the deposits based on factors such as type of deposit, deposit retention, interest rates and age of deposit relationships. The Company recognized goodwill of $ 30 The operating results of the Company for the three months ended March 31 2016 includes the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities since the date of acquisition of March 11, 2016.

(“BMO”) pursuant to which it has agreed to purchase, subject to the terms of the Agreement, fourteen branches of BMO located in the Orlando Metropolitan Statistical Area (“MSA”). Seacoast National Bank will assume approximately $ 355 70 3.0 .
