Note 20 – Subsequent Events

On December 21, 2020, the Company announced they have signed an agreement and plan of reorganization and merger (the Agreement) whereby F&M will acquire Ossian Financial Services, Inc., (OFSI), the holding company for Ossian State Bank, in a cash transaction.  OFSI operates two full-service offices in Northeast Indiana and has approximately $122 million in assets, $58 million in loans, $108 million in deposits and $11.9 million in consolidated equity as of September 30, 2020.  OFSI is taxed as an S-Corporation.  

Subject to the terms of the Agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each company, aggregate cash consideration of the deal is equal to $20 million, representing $67.71 per share.  The consideration is subject to potential adjustment, as set forth in the Agreement, in the event that OFSI’s equity capital is less than $12 million at closing.  

The transaction represents a natural extension of F&M’s community bank footprint and is a complementary fit with the Company’s 2019 acquisition of the Bank of Geneva and F&M’s 2020 asset purchase of Adams County Financial Resources.  OFSI operates offices in the Indiana communities of Ossian and Bluffton.  After the transaction, F&M will operate 11 offices in Indiana with total deposits of $462 million and total loans of $445 million.

On January 15, 2021, the Company announced the authorization by its Board of Directors for the Company’s repurchase, either on the open market, or in privately negotiated transactions, of up to 500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock commencing January 15, 2021 and ending December 31, 2021.

During 2021, the Bank will be consolidating four of its offices as part of the Company’s strategic plan to improve operating efficiencies, reinvest in new remote and electronic banking initiatives and better serve customers.  The office realignment plans include the offices at 1313 S. Defiance Street in Archbold, Ohio, 119 N Fulton Street in Wauseon, Ohio 929 E. High Street in Bryan, Ohio and 103 Main Street in Monroeville, Indiana.
