A Banker's Perspective on the Sale Process:

A "fireside chat" with a former community bank CEO on selling the bank

Please join us for a ‘fireside chat’ between Olsen Palmer’s Managing Partner Christopher Olsen and Gary Crum, Founder and former President and CEO of Laramie, Wyoming-based Western States Bank which was acquired earlier this year by Omaha, Nebraska-based First National Bank of Omaha. At the time of the closing of the transaction, Western States Bank had approximately $560 million in total assets and 10 branches across Southeastern Wyoming, Northeastern Colorado, and Western Nebraska. Olsen Palmer served as advisor to Western States Bank and its parent company.

In a moderated discussion with Mr. Olsen, Mr. Crum will share insights, recommendations, best practices, and hard-earned wisdom drawn directly from the transaction on a variety of topics including:

  • Making the decision to sell;
  • Selecting the right advisors;
  • Organizing key transaction steps;
  • Facilitating negotiations;
  • Managing Board and employee communications;
  • Selecting a buyer;
  • Orchestrating due diligence; and
  • Securing shareholder and regulatory approvals.

This session should be informative for potential sellers, would-be buyers, and prospective merger counterparties alike as it will reveal insider perspectives, key considerations, and best practices across the entire transaction process.
