On January 1, 2022, WSFS closed its acquisition of BMBC and acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of BMBC. In accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, dated March 9, 2021, by and between WSFS and BMBC, each share of BMBC common stock was exchanged for 0.90 shares of WSFS common stock (with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares). The total value of consideration paid was $908.0 million based on 19,903,230 shares of BMBC common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2021, the vesting of 226,643 BMBC restricted stock awards, and the closing price per share of WSFS common stock of $50.12 on December 31, 2021. Results of the combined Company’s operations are included in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of the acquisition.

BMBC was the holding company for The Bryn Mawr Trust Company (Bryn Mawr Bank), a Pennsylvania chartered bank and wholly-owned subsidiary. BMBC and Bryn Mawr Bank were headquartered in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, a western suburb of Philadelphia, and served primarily the Greater Philadelphia region. BMBC and its direct and indirect subsidiaries was a locally managed, premier financial services company providing retail and commercial banking; trust administration and wealth management; and insurance and risk management solutions. WSFS believes that following the BMBC Merger it will be the only bank in the Greater Philadelphia and Delaware region with distinct market-share advantages, including market knowledge, local decision-making, a full-service product suite and a balance sheet to compete with larger regional and national banks. The BMBC Merger also allows WSFS to accelerate our long-term strategic objectives, including scale to continue to invest in our delivery and talent transformations.

The acquisition of BMBC was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of consideration transferred over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, which is not amortizable nor deductible for tax purposes. The Company allocated goodwill to its WSFS Bank segment and Wealth Management segment. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no remeasurement period adjustments made to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

While the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities is substantially completed, fair value estimates related to the assets and liabilities from BMBC are subject to adjustment for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information becomes available. Valuations subject to adjustment include, but are not limited to, Wealth Management intangibles, loans, and deferred income taxes as management continues to review the estimated fair values and evaluate the assumed tax position. When the valuation is final, any changes to the preliminary valuation of acquired assets and liabilities could result in adjustments to identified intangibles and goodwill. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is expected to be finalized during the remeasurement period, which ends one year from the closing date, or January 1, 2023.

The amount of goodwill recorded reflects the increased market share and related synergies that are expected to result from the acquisition, and represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired from BMBC.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to estimate the fair values of major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In many cases, the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined by estimating the cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and applying the appropriate market discount rates.

Investment Securities: The acquired investment portfolio had a fair value of $500.4 million, primarily consisting of short-term U.S. Treasury bills that matured subsequent to closing on January 6, 2022. The estimated fair value approximated the stated value at maturity.

Loans and Leases: The Company recorded $3.5 billion of acquired loans, which were initially recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Fair value for loans was based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered credit loss and prepayment expectations, market interest rates and other market factors, such as liquidity, from the perspective of a market participant. Loan cash flows were generated on an individual loan basis. The PD, LGD, exposure at default and prepayment assumptions are the key factors driving credit losses which are embedded into the estimated cash flows.

Commercial and industrial	$	613,197	$	586,643
Owner-occupied commercial	513,267		503,182

Construction	209,928		208,288
Commercial small business leases	125,770		119,119
Residential	310,092		315,454
Consumer	178,247		174,547
Total acquired loans and leases	$	3,514,735	$	3,456,748

Book balance of loans at acquisition	$	235,791
Allowance for credit losses at acquisition	(26,103)
Non-credit related discount	(1,421)
Total purchase credit deteriorated (PCD) loans acquired	$	208,267

The BMBC Merger resulted in the addition of $49.6 million in allowance for credit losses, including the $26.1 million identified in the table above for PCD loans, and $23.5 million for non-PCD loans recorded through the provision for credit losses at the date of acquisition.

Deferred Income Taxes: The Company recorded a deferred income tax asset (DTA) of $8.4 million related to tax attributes of BMBC along with the effects of fair value adjustments resulting from acquisition accounting for the combination. The DTA’s recorded were based on the expected federal and state tax benefits of when the acquired tax attributes and purchase accounting adjustments will reverse. In recording the DTA, consideration was given to potential limitations on the realizability of such acquired tax attributes. There was no material change to the valuation allowance as a result of the BMBC Merger.

Trust preferred borrowings and subordinated debt: The fair value of trust preferred borrowings and subordinated debt were determined by present valuing the expected cash flows using current market rates for similar instruments. A fair value discount of $2.5 million was recognized for the trust preferred borrowings and will be recognized as an increase to interest expense over the remaining life of the borrowings. A fair value premium of $0.7 million was recognized for the subordinated debt and will be recognized as a decrease to interest expense over the remaining life of the debt.

Intangible Assets: The Company recorded $10.9 million of core deposit intangible (CDI) which is being amortized over ten years using a straight-line amortization methodology. The fair value of the core deposit intangible was determined using the cost savings approach. The cost savings approach is defined as the difference between cost of funds on deposits and the cost of an equal amount of funds from an alternative source. The CDI fair value was determined by projecting net cash flow benefits, including assumptions related to customer attrition, discount rates, deposit interest rates, and alternative costs of funds.

Certificates of deposit accounts were valued by segregating the portfolio into pools based on remaining maturity and comparing the contractual cost of the portfolio to an identical portfolio bearing current market rates. The valuation adjustment will be accreted or amortized to interest expense over the remaining maturities of the respective pools.

WSFS recorded $60.4 million of Wealth Management intangible assets that consisted of $57.1 million for customer relationships in our wealth management, trust and insurances lines of business, $2.8 million for the Bryn Mawr Trust tradename, and $0.5 million in non-compete agreements. Fair value for these Wealth Management intangible assets was based on a discounted cash flow methodology projecting net cash flow benefits, including assumptions related to customer attrition, discount rates, income projections and applicable growth rate assumptions.

For acquisitions, the Company develops comprehensive integration plans under which it has incurred direct costs, which are expensed as incurred. These direct costs include costs are primarily related to: (i) terminated contracts, (ii) consolidated facilities (including lease termination expenses), (iii) severance, (iv) marketing, and (v) professional and legal fees. Costs related to the acquisition and restructuring are included in the Corporate development expense and Restructuring expense line items, respectively, on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.

During the second quarter of 2021, WSFS announced a retail banking office optimization plan that included the planned consolidation of Bryn Mawr Trust and WSFS Bank banking offices. Most of the consolidations and rebranding of the banking offices were completed during the first quarter of 2022, which included 22 Bryn Mawr Trust and 12 WSFS Bank banking offices. Costs related to this plan are included in the Corporate development expense line item on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. In addition, the Company had $11.8 million of premises and equipment as held-for-sale as of March 31, 2022, which is included in the Other assets line item on the unaudited Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
