Business Combinations

Effective December 6, 2019, the Company completed its Merger with SunTrust. The Merger was accounted for as a business combination. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the Merger date. The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. Fair value estimates related to the acquired assets and liabilities are subject to adjustment until all necessary information related to the valuation process has been received. Adjustments must be finalized within one year of the closing date of the Merger. The Company’s purchase price allocation is considered preliminary as certain estimates related to leveraged leases, premises and equipment, and certain other assets and liabilities are subject to continuing refinement. Immaterial amounts of the intangible assets recognized are deductible for income tax purposes. For additional information, see “Note 2. Business Combinations” of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
