Huntington Bancshares (HBAN) and Veritex Holdings (VBTX) announced entry into a definitive merger agreement, and Huntington announced preliminary second quarter results. Under the terms of the agreement, Huntington will issue 1.95 shares for each outstanding share of Veritex in a 100% stock transaction. Based on Huntington’s closing price of $17.39 as of July 11, 2025, the consideration implies $33.91 per Veritex share or an aggregate transaction value of $1.9B. The transaction is expected to be modestly accretive to Huntington’s earnings per share, neutral to regulatory capital at close, and slightly dilutive to tangible book value per share with payback in approximately one year inclusive of merger expenses and CECL double count.
