Pennsylvania-based FNB has agreed to acquire North Carolina-based Yadkin Financial, the parent of Yadkin Bank, in an all-stock deal worth $1.4bn.

The deal will include the merger of the parent companies, while Yadkin Bank will merge with and into FNB subsidiary First National Bank of Pennsylvania.

The acquisition would add about $7.5bn in total assets, $5.3bn in total deposits, $5.4bn in total loans to FNB’s portfolio.

Following the purchase, FNB will have about $30bn in total assets, about $21bn in deposits and $20bn in total loans.   

The deal will also add 100 banking offices in North Carolina and South Carolina to FNB’s roughly 300-branch network, giving the bank a presence in several high-growth markets such as Raleigh, Charlotte and the Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point area.

The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2017, subject to regulatory and shareholders’ approvals.
