Acquisition of Apollo Bancshares, Inc.
On October 7, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of Apollo Bancshares, Inc. (“Apollo”). Simultaneously, upon completion of the merger of Apollo and the Company, Apollo Bank was merged with and into Seacoast Bank. Prior to the acquisition, Apollo Bank operated five branches in Miami-Dade County.
As a result of this acquisition, the Company expects to expand its customer base and leverage operating cost through economies of scale, and positively affect the Company’s operating results.
Apollo shareholders received 1.006529 shares of Seacoast common stock for each share of Apollo common stock, and the minority interest holders in Apollo Bank received 1.195651 shares of Seacoast common stock for each share of Apollo Bank common stock.

The acquisition of Apollo was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company recognized goodwill of $90.2 million for this acquisition that is nondeductible for tax purposes. Determining fair values of assets and liabilities, especially the loan portfolio, core deposit intangibles, and deferred taxes, is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair values. 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 becomes known.
As part of the acquisition of Apollo, options and warrants were granted to replace outstanding Apollo awards. These awards were fully vested upon acquisition. The full value of the replacement awards, $6.5 million, was associated with pre-combination service and was therefore included in the calculation of the total purchase consideration.
