Quality investment here, imo.

[FACT-MASTER]

Bear,

I duly appreciate you taking the time to look into that with your VP friend, now we both know where Bank OZK stands on that subject.

However, even though Bank OZK may not be "for sale" per say, that doesn't mean to say that other banks such as CFR are not watching and taking note of Bank OZK's business activities, imo.

I appreciate being part of Bank OZK as a shareholder. This bank appears to be well managed, efficient, and undertaking high profile projects (some just recently announced). Long term investment, imo.

Gave you a follow mark in appreciation of your due diligence.

[Huggy Bear]

I am an Arkansan and friends with a VP. Bank OZK is not for sale.

[FACT-MASTER]

Just my opinion, but i see Bank OZK as a buyout target. ( i have my reasons)

Any one of Signature Bank, Synovus Financial, or Cullen Frost Bankers could be possible suitors to buy out Bank OZK, imo

[FACT-MASTER]

Another stellar quarter here at Bank OZK.

https://ih.advfn.com/stock-market/NASDAQ/bank-ozk-OZK/stock-news/88647874/bank-ozk-announces-second-quarter-2022-earnings

OZK might just be a buyout candidate, imo. Would be a goof fit with CFR.

It's a good day for banking in the Ozarks
Finally, Bank OZK's shares soared 16%. The financial institution formerly known as Bank of the Ozarks said that its earnings during the fourth quarter of 2018 were the highest of the year, and Bank OZK produced impressive levels of internal returns and credit quality. CEO George Gleason pointed to the bank's strategic rebranding as a success, giving it a broader identity beyond its home region and potentially opening up expansion opportunities. Investors hope that the results foreshadow an even stronger 2019 ahead.
