On July 28, 2021, the Company and Brock Sub LLC, a newly formed Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Delta Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Delta Merger Agreement”) with Delta Bancshares Company, a Missouri corporation (“Delta”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Delta pursuant to a business combination whereby Delta merged with and into Delta Merger Sub, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Delta ceased and Delta Merger Sub continued as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Mid (the “Delta Merger”). The Delta Merger was completed on February 14, 2022.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Delta Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Delta Merger, each share of common stock, par value $10.00 per share, of Delta issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Delta Merger (other than shares held in treasury by Delta) converted into and became the right to receive cash and shares of common stock, par value $4.00 per share, of the Company and cash in lieu of fractional shares, less any applicable taxes required to be withheld, and subject to certain potential adjustments. On an aggregate basis, the total consideration paid by the Company at the closing of the Delta Merger to Delta’s shareholders and option holders was approximately $15.15 million in cash and 2,292,270 shares of Company common stock. Delta’s outstanding stock options vested upon consummation of the Delta Merger, and all outstanding Delta options that were unexercised prior to the effective time of the Delta Merger were cashed out.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations ("ASC 805"),” and accordingly the assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of February 14, 2022 as additional information regarding the closing date fair values become available. The total consideration paid was used to determine the amount of goodwill resulting from the transaction. As the total consideration paid exceeded the net assets acquired, goodwill of $28.6 million was recorded for the acquisition. Goodwill recorded in the transaction, which reflects the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining operations and the enhanced revenue opportunities from the Company’s service capabilities, is not tax deductible, and was all assigned to the banking segment of the Company.

The Company also recorded approximately $863,000 directly to the allowance for credit losses for loans identified as PCD. Of the $426 million of loans acquired, approximately $18.8 million was identified as PCD.
