CHANUTE, Kan. and WARRENSBURG, Mo. March 22, 2022 Chanute, Kansas , have reached a definitive agreement with Quarry City Savings and Loan Association ("Quarry City") (OTC Pink: "QRRY"), a Missouri savings association headquartered in Warrensburg, Missouri , to acquire Quarry City.
The all-cash aggregate merger consideration for the transaction, after accounting for all of the estimated transaction costs on a tax-effected basis, is estimated to be $10.37 million $25.42 per share cash consideration to the current holders of Quarry City common stock. However, the estimated per share consideration may be subject to significant adjustment based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, transaction costs. As a result, Quarry City shareholders should not assume they will receive $25.42 per share upon closing of the transaction.
Quarry City operates a full-service banking office in Warrensburg, Missouri . As of December 31, 2021 , Quarry City reported $71.3 million $9.6 million
Daniel Mildfelt , President and Chief Executive Officer of Community Bancorp and Community National, said, "We are pleased with the opportunity to welcome Quarry City and its employees and customers to Community National. Both institutions share the principles of caring for their employees, the communities they serve and providing high quality products and services to their customers. As two community-minded banks, we are proud to strengthen our local impact and support new markets."
Steve Andrew , President and Chief Executive Officer of Quarry City, said, "We are excited to partner with Community National, a leading community bank. The merger will provide an opportunity for our customers to join a much larger, yet community bank-oriented, banking network, with expanded products and services, while employees will benefit from the opportunity to work for a growing community bank. Our customers should rest assured that they will continue to see the same friendly faces they always have except that now we will be able to offer additional cutting-edge products and services. This is good news for our community as Community National will continue to maintain our Warrensburg office and the Bank will have significantly more financial strength."
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of approvals from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the shareholders of Quarry City. We currently anticipate that the transaction will close in the third quarter of 2022.
