Impact of Eastern Michigan Acquisition on Future Cost Savings and Integration Timeline

Management expects the core merger of Eastern Michigan Financial Corporation to be completed by February 2027, with most cost savings realized post-merger.
The acquisition is projected to generate double-digit earnings accretion but cause mid-single-digit tangible book value dilution.
Cost savings from the merger are anticipated to be more significant after the core conversion, with some initial expenses in 2026.
The delay in the full integration process is due to the planned core system conversion, which is set for early 2027.
Management highlighted that upfront costs related to the acquisition will be about $1 million in the fourth quarter, assuming closing by quarter-end.
The acquisition is expected to enhance the bank’s growth prospects and operational efficiency over the medium term.
