IDPK acquired by PPBI. Finra deleted symbol.

You never know when the investor will be pleasantly surprised in banking.
PPBI has been off and on my radar many times, but have never owned a share. We have been primarily looking at banks in Northern California.
IDPK acquired PBSK only last January and later went public. That was quick!
It reminds me of the instructions on the back of a shampoo bottle: Wash, rinse and repeat.
EI, will PPBI get taken over next year?

Transaction Details
The aggregate merger consideration is currently estimated at approximately $71.5 million, based on a $14.73 closing price of the Company’s common stock on October 21, 2014. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, holders of Independence Bank common stock, stock options and warrants will receive aggregate cash consideration of $7.2 million and aggregate stock consideration currently estimated at $64.3 million. The Independence Bank shareholders will own approximately 20.4% of the combined company.
