Deal rationale and strategic fit

  • Merger creates a leading relationship-focused business bank with expanded reach across California, especially the Bay Area, fulfilling a key strategic objective and enhancing market position.

  • Both organizations share a strong culture, focus on small and medium business clients, and have a history of credit quality and low-cost deposits.

  • Strategic entry into a top market with attractive demographics and significant small business concentration, improving long-term positioning and franchise value.

  • Enables shareholders to participate in the future upside of a premier commercial bank and creates growth opportunities for employees.

  • The deal was negotiated directly between the two companies, not through a competitive bidding process.

  • Pro forma ownership: 77% CVBF, 23% Heritage Commerce.

  • Pricing multiples are 12.6x 2027 EPS and 1.51x tangible book value.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
