Access Acquisition

On February 1, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of Access National Corporation (and its subsidiaries), a bank holding company based in Reston, Virginia. Holders of shares of Access’s common stock received 0.75 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for each share of Access’s common stock, resulting in the Company issuing 15,842,026 shares of the Company’s common stock at a fair value of approximately $500.0 million. In addition, the Company paid cash of approximately $12,000 in lieu of fractional shares.

The 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 the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition, in accordance with ASC 350. The measurement period was formally closed as of February 1, 2020, and the Company did not make any measurement period adjustments in 2020.

There were no merger-related costs associated with the acquisition of Access for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Merger-related costs associated with the acquisition of Access were $26.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Such costs include legal and accounting fees, lease and contract termination expenses, system conversion, and employee severances, which have been expensed as incurred.
