Joliet, IL and Earlville, IL, June 1, 2022 – NuMark Credit Union (“NuMark”) of Joliet, IL and Pioneer State Bank (“Pioneer”) in Earlville, IL jointly announced today that they have entered into an agreement whereby NuMark will purchase substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Pioneer State Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NBE Bancshares, Inc., in an all-cash transaction.
While the agreement is contingent on obtaining regulatory and Pioneer shareholder approvals, the proposed transaction has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both organizations. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2022. Following the completion of the transaction, Pioneer will liquidate and distribute its remaining assets to NBE Bancshares, Inc. and then NBE Bancshares, Inc. will dissolve and distribute its remaining assets to its stockholders. When the purchase is complete NuMark will have $759 million in assets and increase its footprint beyond the Chicagoland area into Central Illinois with a total of 13 branches.
