EXHIBIT 99.1

 

SELECTED UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of income as of December 31, 2015, have been prepared to reflect the merger of Nicolet and Baylake after giving effect to the adjustments described in the notes to the pro forma condensed financial statements. In the merger, Baylake common shareholders received consideration of 4,344,243 shares of Nicolet common stock for an estimated aggregate value of approximately $163 million (based on $37.58 per share, which represents the volume-weighted average price based on the trading days of March 30, 2016 through April 26, 2016).

 

The merger has been accounted for as a purchase transaction. Under the purchase method of accounting, Nicolet has recorded the assets and liabilities of the acquired entities at their fair values on the closing date of the merger. The pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared assuming the transaction was consummated on December 31, 2015. The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income have been prepared assuming the transaction was consummated on January 1, 2015.

 

The selected unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not indicate either the operating results that would have occurred had the merger been consummated before December 31, 2015, or at January 1, 2015, as the case may be, or future results of operations or financial condition. The selected unaudited pro forma condensed financial information is based upon assumptions and adjustments that Nicolet believes are reasonable. Only such adjustments as have been noted in the accompanying footnotes have been applied in order to give effect to the proposed transaction described in this joint proxy statement-prospectus. Such assumptions and adjustments are subject to change as future events materialize and fair value estimates are refined.

 

The selected unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statement should be read in conjunction with the companies’ historical financial statements and related notes which can be found in their respective December 31, 2015 Form 10-K filings.
