Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously announced, on August 12, 2022, MVB Financial Corp., a West Virginia corporation (“MVB”), and Integrated Financial Holdings, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (“IFHI”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and conditions therein, IFHI will merge with and into MVB (the “Merger”), with MVB continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger. Following the Merger, West Town Bank & Trust (“West Town Bank”), a state bank chartered under the laws of Illinois and wholly owned subsidiary of IFHI, will merge with and into MVB Bank, Inc., a West Virginia state chartered bank and wholly owned subsidiary of MVB, with MVB Bank as the surviving bank. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the board of directors of MVB and IFHI. The Merger is described in the joint proxy statement/prospectus that was filed by MVB with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 1, 2022 and amended on December 8, 2022 (the “joint proxy statement/prospectus”). On or about December 15, 2022, MVB mailed the joint proxy statement/prospectus to MVB’s shareholders in connection with the special meeting of its shareholders scheduled to be held on January 25, 2023, at which its shareholders will consider and vote upon, among other things, a proposal to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger and the issuance of shares of MVB common stock as merger consideration. Similarly, on or about December 15, 2022, IFHI mailed the joint proxy statement/prospectus to IFHI’s shareholders in connection with the special meeting of its shareholders scheduled to be held on January 24, 2023, at which its shareholders will consider and vote upon, among other things, a proposal to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger. This Current Report on Form 8-K provides certain additional information regarding the Merger.

On November 21, 2022, a law firm representing a purported IFHI shareholder sent a demand letter (the “IFHI Demand Letter”) to Wyrick Robbins Yates & Ponton LLP and Squire Patton Boggs LLP (“SPB”), legal counsel for IFHI and MVB, respectively. The IFHI Demand Letter alleges that the joint proxy statement/prospectus omitted material information with respect to the Merger and seeks corrective disclosures in an amendment or supplement to the joint proxy statement/prospectus.

On December 29, 2022, a law firm representing a purported MVB shareholder sent a demand letter (the “MVB Demand Letter”) to SPB alleging disclosure deficiencies in the joint proxy statement/prospectus and seeking corrective disclosures in an amendment or supplement to the joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The parties to the Merger continue to believe that the demands for supplemental corrective disclosure are entirely without merit and that no further disclosure is required by applicable rule, statute, regulation or law beyond that already contained in the joint proxy statement/prospectus. However, to avoid the risk that the IFHI Demand Letter, the MVB Demand Letter and the demands therein may delay or otherwise adversely affect the consummation of the Merger and to minimize the expense of defending any potential lawsuit that may arise as a result of the IFHI Demand Letter or the MVB Demand Letter, the parties to the Merger have determined that they will voluntarily make certain supplemental disclosures in the joint proxy statement/prospectus related to the proposed Merger set forth below (the “Supplemental Disclosures”). Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the Supplemental Disclosures set forth herein.

The information contained herein and in the Supplemental Disclosures supplement and should be read in conjunction with the joint proxy statement/prospectus, which should be read in its entirety, along with periodic reports and other information MVB has filed with the SEC. To the extent that the information set forth herein differs from or updates information contained in the joint proxy statement/prospectus, the information set forth herein shall supersede or supplement the information in the joint proxy statement/prospectus. All page references below are to pages in the joint proxy statement/prospectus, and terms used below, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meanings given to such terms in the joint proxy statement/prospectus.

5. The disclosure under the heading “The Merger–Opinion of MVB’s Financial Advisor–Discounted Cash Flow Analysis – IFH” on page 96 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended by deleting this section in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

Stephens performed a standalone discounted cash flow analysis using projections developed by the executive management team of MVB, and then calculated a range of implied equity values for IFH based upon the discounted net present value of the projected after-tax free cash flows for the projected period. Stephens determined the amount of cash flow assuming (i) unaudited prospective financial information provided to Stephens by MVB, (ii) a terminal earnings multiple of 9.0x, and (iii) dividend payments for earnings and excess capital above a tangible common equity to tangible asset ratio of 9.0% from 2023 to 2027, both excluding and including net after-tax cash merger adjustments. See the section below entitled “Certain Unaudited Prospective Financial Information” for additional information regarding unaudited prospective financial information.

In selecting a terminal earnings multiple, Stephens considered a range of 8.0x to 10.0x NTM EPS derived from the Price / Next Twelve Months (NTM) EPS multiple of companies included in MVB’s peer group identified in MVB’s 2022 proxy statement.

The following table summarizes the terminal value of IFH that Stephens calculated by applying the selected terminal earnings multiple to IFH’s 2028 projected adjusted net income, excluding net after-tax cash merger adjustments:

(1)Includes after-tax cash merger adjustments as estimated by MVB management.
(2) 2.50% pre-tax cost of cash assumed on dividends deployed from excess capital.

Based on this analysis, considering discount rates ranging from 10.0% to 12.0%, Stephens derived a range for the implied equity value of IFH from $38.38 per share to $45.81 per share, excluding merger adjustments, and $70.27 per share to $86.28 per share including merger adjustments.

The discounted cash flow analysis is a widely used valuation methodology, but the results of this methodology are highly dependent on the assumptions that must be made, including asset and earnings growth rates, terminal values, capital levels, and discount rates. The analysis did not purport to be indicative of the actual values or expected values of IFH. The actual results may vary from the projected results, any of these assumptions might not be realized in future operations and the variations may be material.




6. The disclosure under the heading “The Merger–Opinion of IFH’s Financial Advisor–Material Financial Analyses” and the subheading “Discounted Cash Flow Analysis.” is hereby amended by deleting the first full paragraph of this subsection on page 103 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and replacing it with the following:

Raymond James performed a discounted cash flow analysis of IFH and MVB to estimate an illustrative range for the implied equity value of IFH and MVB, each on a standalone basis. In this analysis, Raymond James used the Projections for IFH and MVB on a standalone basis, each of which was provided by IFH management and approved for the use of Raymond James. The range of values was derived by adding (i) the present value of the estimated excess cash flows that each company could generate over the period from June 30, 2022 through December 31, 2026 and (ii) the present value of each company’s implied terminal value at the end of such period. Raymond James assumed that IFH and MVB, each on a standalone basis, would maintain a tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio of 8.00% and would retain sufficient earnings to maintain that level. Raymond James applied multiples, ranging from 12.0x to 14.0x, to calendar year 2027 earnings in order to derive a range of terminal values for IFH and MVB in 2026. Raymond James arrived at this range by using the median of the historical 5-year price to next twelve month EPS multiple for the NASDAQ Bank Index of approximately 13.0x and added 1.0x to get the high of that range and subtracted 1.0x to get the low of that range.

7. The disclosure under the heading “The Merger–Opinion of IFH’s Financial Advisor–Material Financial Analyses” and the subheading “Discounted Cash Flow Analysis.” is hereby supplemented by deleting the first three sentences of the second full paragraph of this subsection on page 103 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and replacing it with the following:

For IFH, Raymond James used discount rates ranging from 14.0% to 16.0%. Raymond James arrived at its discount rate range by using the 2021 Duff & Phelps Valuation Handbook to estimate IFH’s discount rate at approximately 15.0% and then added 1.0% to get the high of that range and subtracted 1.0% to get the low of that range of estimated discount rates. For MVB, Raymond James used discount rates ranging from 11.5% to 13.5%. Raymond James arrived at its discount rate range by using the 2021 Duff & Phelps Valuation Handbook to estimate MVB’s discount rate at approximately 12.5% and then added 1.0% to get the high of that range and subtracted 1.0% to get the low of that range of estimated discount rates.

10. The disclosure under the heading “The Merger–Opinion of IFH’s Financial Advisor–Material Financial Analyses” and the subheading “Additional Considerations.” is hereby amended by deleting the fourth paragraph under such subheading, which appears on page 107 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and replacing it with the following:

During the two years preceding the date of Raymond James’ written opinion, Raymond James (i) provided investment banking advisory services to MVB in connection with a minority investment in Warp Speed Holdings LLC, for which Raymond James received a retainer fee of $100,000 and additional fees when the investment closed of $900,000, (ii) provided investment banking services to MVB in connection with two private debt offerings and a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer for which Raymond James received fees totaling approximately $1 million, (iii) Raymond James Bank arranged a holding company loan to MVB that is unrelated to the merger for which it received a fee of $100,000 at closing and will receive interest over the term of the loan, and (iv) engaged in certain fixed income trading activity with MVB Bank, a subsidiary of MVB, and provided services related to MVB’s wealth management business for which it has received fees totaling approximately $1.3 million. Furthermore, Raymond James may provide investment banking, financial advisory and other financial services to IFH, MVB or their subsidiaries or affiliates in the future, for which Raymond James may receive compensation.

11. The disclosure under the heading “The Merger–Opinion of IFH’s Financial Advisor–Material Financial Analyses” and the subheading “Additional Considerations.” is hereby amended by deleting the fifth paragraph under such subheading, which paragraph is on page 107 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus, and replacing it with the following:

For services rendered in connection with the delivery of its opinion, IFH paid Raymond James a customary investment banking fee of $350,000 upon delivery of its opinion. IFH will also pay Raymond James a fee for advisory services in



connection with the merger, a substantial portion of which is contingent upon the closing of the merger. The $350,000 fee paid upon delivery of the Raymond James opinion will be deducted from and credited against any advisory fee payable upon completion of the transaction. The amount of the advisory fee, prior to crediting the $350,000 fee paid upon delivery of the Raymond James opinion, is equal to the greater of approximately $1.3 million or a percentage of the final transaction value as calculated immediately prior to closing based on the following schedule: one and three-eighths percent (1.375%) of transaction value equal to or less than $105,000,000 (“Tier 1 Fee”); for transactions with transaction value between $105,000,000 and $134,999,999, the amount of the fee is equal to the sum of the Tier 1 Fee plus two and one-quarter percent (2.25%) of the incremental transaction value in excess of $105,000,000 and less than or equal to $134,999,999; for transactions with transaction value greater than $134,999,999, the amount of the fee is equal to the sum of the Tier 1 Fee plus two and one-half percent (2.50%) of incremental transaction value in excess of $105,000,000. IFH also agreed to reimburse Raymond James for its expenses incurred in connection with its services, including the fees and expenses of its counsel, and has agreed to indemnify Raymond James against certain liabilities that could arise out of its engagement.

12. The disclosure under the heading “The Merger—Certain Unaudited Prospective Financial Information—Prospective Financial Information Regarding IFH – Stephens” on page 109 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended by deleting this section in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

The following prospective financial information regarding IFH was used by Stephens in performing its financial analysis with respect to IFH on a stand-alone basis: (i) estimated net income available to common shareholders of IFH of ($4.1) million for the period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, which included a ($7.4) million net after-tax expense related to an estimated litigation settlement, $6.1 million for the year ending December 31, 2023 and $7.2 million for the year ending December 31, 2024 and (ii) an annual net income growth rate of 10.0% thereafter.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to MVB’s and IFHI’s beliefs, goals, intentions, and expectations regarding the proposed transaction and other statements that are not historical facts.

Forward‐looking statements are typically identified by such words as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “should,” “will,” and other similar words and expressions, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which change over time. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, those relating to the terms, timing, closing and impact of the proposed transaction.
Additionally, forward‐looking statements speak only as of the date they are made; MVB and IFHI do not assume any duty, and do not undertake, to update such forward‐looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Furthermore, because forward‐looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those indicated in such forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the control of MVB and IFHI. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the management of MVB and IFHI and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties outside of the control of the parties. Caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement between MVB and IFHI; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against MVB or IFHI; the possibility that the proposed transaction will not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, shareholder or other approvals are not received or other conditions to the closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated (and the risk that required regulatory approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction); the ability of MVB and IFHI to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed Merger could have adverse effects on the market price of the common stock of MVB; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed Merger will not be realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where MVB and IFHI do business; certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed Merger that may impact the parties’ ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; the possibility that the Merger may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; the possibility that the parties may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in the Merger within the expected timeframes or at all and to successfully integrate IFHI’s operations and those of MVB; such integration may be more difficult, time consuming or costly than expected; revenues following the proposed Merger may be lower than expected; IFHI’s and MVB’s success in executing their respective business plans and strategies and managing the risks involved in the foregoing; the dilution caused by MVB’s issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the proposed Merger; effects of the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed Merger on the ability of IFHI and MVB to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with their suppliers, and on their operating results and businesses generally; risks related to the potential impact of general economic, political and market factors on the companies or the proposed transaction and other factors that may affect future results of IFHI and MVB; uncertainty as to the extent of the duration, scope, and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the effects of inflation on IFHI, MVB and the proposed Merger; the impact of changing interest rates on IFHI and MVB; and the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of MVB’s Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the year ended December 31, 2021, in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of MVB’s Quarterly Report on Form 10‐Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, and in other reports MVB files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
