Old National to Partner with Nashville-based CapStar

Old National Bancorp (NASDAQ: ONB) ("Old National") and CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSTR) ("CapStar") jointly announced today that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement for Old National to acquire CapStar in an all-stock transaction. Combining the two organizations will strengthen Old National's recently formed Nashville presence and add several new high-growth markets.

Old National entered the Tennessee market in 2022 when it introduced a Nashville-based 1834 Wealth team (Old National's high-net-worth division). More recently, Old National added a Nashville-based Commercial banking and lending team. The combination with CapStar accelerates Old National's Tennessee presence bringing $3.3 billion in total assets, $2.3 billion in total loans, and $2.8 billion in deposits as of September 30, 2023, with top-10 deposit market share in the Nashville MSA and recent entry into Asheville, North Carolina.

"This partnership with CapStar – one of the most highly respected and successful community banks in Tennessee – is a tremendous cultural fit and a natural extension of our growth strategy," said Old National CEO Jim Ryan. "By establishing a full-service banking presence in Nashville and several other strong Tennessee and North Carolina communities, we can more fully serve our existing Nashville-area clients while also introducing our client- and community-focused brand of banking to the surrounding region."
