On April 12, 2021, Cadence announced that it had signed an agreement to be acquired by BancorpSouth in an all-stock merger. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Cadence stockholders will receive 0.70 shares of BancorpSouth common stock plus a special dividend of $1.25 for each share of Cadence common stock owned.
