Item 5. Other Events
- --------------------
On October 1, 1997, First Midwest Bancorp, Inc. ("First Midwest"), acquired all
of the outstanding common stock of SparBank, Incorporated ("SparBank"), pursuant
to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 18, 1997, in exchange for
3,230,764 shares of First Midwest common stock. As a result of the acquisition,
SparBank was merged with and into First Midwest and McHenry State Bank ("MSB"),
the 99.7% owned subsidiary of SparBank, became a subsidiary of First Midwest.
This report on Form 8-K is filed to report that consolidated revenues
(unaudited), defined as net interest income and total non-interest income, and
net income (unaudited) for the 30-day period ended October 31, 1997, reflecting
30 days of post-merger combined operations of First Midwest and MSB, totaled
$15,324,828 and $3,755,205, respectively. Net income per share (unaudited) for
the 30-day period was $.19 based on 20,048,000 weighted average shares
outstanding. The operating results for this one month period are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the quarter or year-ended
December 31, 1997. Net income for the 30-day period does not include the effect
of any portion of the pre-tax merger related charge of approximately $6.5-7.0
million that will be recognized by First Midwest in the fourth quarter of 1997
in conjunction with the SparBank acquisition.
