May 01, 2023
JPM shares saw a 3% surge following their win in First Republic auction.
JPMorgan expects the deal to be earnings per share accretive, generating more than $500 million of incremental net income per year.
The $500 million does not include a one-time gain of $2.6 billion and an estimated $2 billion of restructuring costs.
Despite neither the FDIC nor JPMorgan release indicating shareholders would get any consideration, First Republic shares (FRC) fell 36% to $2.24.
JPMorgan confirmed that it is not assuming First Republic's corporate debt or preferred stock.
PNC Financial Services (PNC), reported to be one of the First Republic bidders, fell 5% in shares.
This deal marks an important milestone for JPMorgan Chase as it expands its market share in the banking sector.
