DFCU Financial to Acquire Two Florida Branches of MidWestOne Bank

THE TRANSACTION

On September 25, 2023, The Boards of Directors of DFCU Financial ("DFCU") and MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:MOFG), the holding company for MidWestOne Bank, announced that they have signed a definitive agreement for DFCU to acquire the Naples and Fort Myers banking operations of MidWestOne Bank.

By acquiring the two MidWestOne branches in the Naples-Marco Island MSA and the Cape Coral-Fort Myers MSA, DFCU will add consumer and commercial deposits and loans of approximately $158 million and approximately $160 million respectively.
