Item 8.01  Other Events.

As previously reported, on August 7, 2018, WSFS Financial Corporation (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation and the parent holding company of Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS Bank”), and Beneficial Bancorp, Inc. (“Beneficial”), a Maryland corporation and the parent holding company of Beneficial Bank (“Beneficial Bank”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, as amended (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, (i) Beneficial will merge with and into WSFS, with WSFS continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”) and (ii) simultaneously with the Merger, Beneficial Bank will merge with and into WSFS Bank, with WSFS Bank continuing as the surviving bank. The proposed transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, receipt of required regulatory approvals and stockholder approvals by the Company and Beneficial.

The Company has included with this filing certain historical audited and unaudited financial information with respect to Beneficial, and certain additional unaudited pro forma financial information giving effect to the transactions as though they had been completed on the dates set forth in such information.

Important Additional Information will be Filed with the SEC

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval with respect to the proposed acquisition by the Company of Beneficial (the “Proposed Transaction”). No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy shall be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

In connection with the Proposed Transaction, the Company has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-227573) containing a joint proxy statement of the Company and Beneficial and a prospectus of the Company (the “Joint Proxy/Prospectus”), and each of the Company and Beneficial may file with the SEC other documents regarding the Proposed Transaction. The definitive Joint Proxy/Prospectus will be mailed to stockholders of the Company and Beneficial. Stockholders are urged to read the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy/Prospectus regarding the Proposed Transaction carefully and in their entirety and any other documents filed with the SEC by the Company and Beneficial, as well as any amendments or supplements to those documents, because they will contain important information about the Proposed Transaction.

Free copies of the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy/Prospectus, as well as other filings containing information about WSFS and Beneficial, may be obtained at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov) when they are filed. You will also be able to obtain these documents, when they are filed, free of charge, by directing a request to WSFS Financial Corporation, WSFS Bank Center, 500 Delaware Avenue, Wilmington Delaware 19801 or by directing a request to Beneficial Bancorp, Inc., Beneficial Bank Place, 1818 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103.

Participants in the Solicitation

The Company, Beneficial and certain of their respective directors, executive officers and employees may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the stockholders of the Company or Beneficial in respect of the Proposed Transaction. Information about the Company’s directors and executive officers is available in its proxy statement for its 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on March 23, 2018, and information regarding Beneficial’s directors and executive officers is available in its proxy statement for its 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on March 8, 2018. Information regarding the persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be deemed participants in the proxy solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, will be contained in the Joint Proxy/Prospectus and other relevant materials to be filed with the SEC when they become available. Free copies of this document may be obtained as described in the preceding paragraph.

 

 

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains estimates, predictions, opinions, projections and other “forward-looking statements” as that phrase is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to the impact the Company expects its proposed acquisition of Beneficial to have on the combined entity’s operations, financial condition, and financial results, and the Company’s expectations about its ability to successfully integrate the combined businesses and the amount of cost savings and overall operational efficiencies the Company expects to realize as a result of the proposed acquisition. The forward-looking statements also include predications or expectations of future business or financial performance as well as goals and objectives for future operations, financial and business trends, business prospects, and management’s outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses, capital levels, liquidity levels, asset quality or other future financial or business performance, strategies or expectations. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “project” and similar expressions, among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on various assumptions (many of which are beyond the control of the Company and Beneficial) and are subject to risks and uncertainties (which change over time) and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the possibility that the proposed acquisition does not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, stockholder or other approvals and other conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all, the failure to close for any other reason, changes in the Company’s share price before closing, that the businesses of the Company and Beneficial will not be integrated successfully, that the cost savings and any synergies from the proposed acquisition may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected, disruption from the proposed acquisition making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers or other parties with whom the Company or Beneficial have business relationships, diversion of management time on merger-related issues, risks relating to the potential dilutive effect of shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued in the transaction, the reaction to the transaction of the companies’ customers, employees and counterparties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company and Beneficial. We refer you to the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Beneficial for the year ended December 31, 2017 and any updates to those risk factors set forth in the Company’s and Beneficial’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings, which have been filed by the Company and Beneficial with the SEC and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this Current Report on Form 8-K are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to herein. The actual results or developments anticipated may not be realized or, even if substantially realized, they may not have the expected consequences to or effects on the Company, Beneficial or their respective businesses or operations. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. Neither the Company nor Beneficial undertakes any obligation, and specifically declines any obligation, to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Exhibit 99.1

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are based on the separate historical financial statements of WSFS Financial Corporation, or WSFS, and Beneficial Bancorp, Inc., or Beneficial, and give effect to the mergers of (i) Beneficial with and into WSFS, with WSFS continuing as the surviving corporation, which we refer to as the merger and (ii) Beneficial Bank with and into Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, or WSFS Bank, with WSFS Bank continuing as the surviving bank, including pro forma assumptions and adjustments related to the mergers, as described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 is presented as if the mergers occurred on June 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of earnings for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2018 are presented as if the mergers occurred on January 1, 2017. The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted on a pro forma basis to reflect factually supportable items that are directly attributable to the mergers and, with respect to the statements of earnings only, expected to have a continuing impact on consolidated results of operations.

The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. WSFS is the acquirer for accounting purposes. Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of Beneficial to conform to the presentation in WSFS’s financial statements.

A final determination of the fair values of Beneficial’s assets and liabilities, which cannot be made prior to the completion of the mergers, will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets of Beneficial that exist as of the closing date. Consequently, fair value adjustments and amounts preliminarily allocated to goodwill and identifiable intangibles could change significantly from those allocations used in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements presented herein and could result in a material change in amortization of acquired intangible assets. In addition, the value of the final merger consideration will be based on the closing price of WSFS common stock on the date the merger becomes effective. The closing price of WSFS common stock on September 17, 2018 was used for purposes of presenting the pro forma combined condensed financial information.

In connection with the plan to integrate the operations of WSFS and Beneficial following the completion of the mergers, WSFS anticipates that nonrecurring charges, such as costs associated with systems implementation, severance, accelerated vesting of equity awards and other costs related to exit or disposal activities, will be incurred. WSFS is not able to determine the timing, nature and amount of these charges as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. However, these charges will affect the results of operations of WSFS and Beneficial, as well as those of the combined company following the completion of the mergers, in the period in which they are recorded. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of earnings do not include the effects of the costs associated with any restructuring or integration activities resulting from the mergers, as they are nonrecurring in nature and not factually supportable at this time. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma adjustments do not give effect to any nonrecurring or unusual restructuring charges that may be incurred as a result of the integration of the two companies or any anticipated disposition of assets that may result from such integration.

The actual amounts recorded as of the completion of the mergers may differ materially from the information presented in these unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements as a result of:

·changes in the trading price for WSFS’s common stock;
·net cash used or generated in WSFS’s or Beneficial’s operations between the signing of the merger agreement and completion of the mergers;
·changes in the fair values of WSFS’s or Beneficial’s assets and liabilities;
·other changes in WSFS’s or Beneficial’s net assets that occur prior to the completion of the mergers, which could cause material changes in the information presented below; and
·the actual financial results of the combined company.

 

 

The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the results that would have been achieved had the mergers been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future. The preparation of the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements and related adjustments required management to make certain assumptions and estimates. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements should be read together with:

·the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements;
·WSFS’s separate audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in WSFS’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, incorporated by reference herein;
·Beneficial’s separate audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in Beneficial’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, incorporated by reference herein;
·WSFS’s separate unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 included in WSFS’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, incorporated by reference herein;
·Beneficial’s separate unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, included in Beneficial’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, incorporated by reference herein; and
·other information pertaining to WSFS and Beneficial contained in or incorporated by reference into this document.
