EverBank Financial Corp announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016. The Company also announced that as a result of an ongoing review of its strategic alternatives it is in advanced negotiations with a well-respected financial services company regarding a transaction in which EverBank Financial Corp would be acquired and EverBank Financial Corp's common stockholders would receive $19.50 per share in cash.
In addition, the transaction contemplates that each share of EverBank Financial Corp's Series A Preferred Stock would receive cash in an amount equal to the liquidation preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends. There can be no certainty that these negotiations will result in a definitive agreement or that the terms will not vary from those currently under discussion or that the review of EverBank Financial Corp's other strategic alternatives will result in any action.
The Company does not intend to make any additional comments or statements regarding these matters until such time, if at all, that it has reached a definitive agreement for a transaction. EverBank Financial Corp further noted that it had entered into an agreement with the financial services company to negotiate exclusively with it regarding a transaction and such exclusivity agreement expires at 11:59 p.m. on August 8.
