Item 7.01.
Regulation FD Disclosure.
On June 13, 2022, CrossFirst Bankshares, Inc. ("CrossFirst") announced
 
an agreement under which CrossFirst’s bank
subsidiary, CrossFirst Bank (“CFB Bank”), will acquire Central Bancorp, Inc.’s (“Central”) bank subsidiary, Farmers &
Stockmens Bank (“F&S Bank”), for approximately $75 million in
 
cash. F&S Bank currently has Central Bank & Trust
branches in Colorado and Farmers & Stockmens Bank branches
 
in New Mexico.
CrossFirst issued a press release announcing
the agreement among CrossFirst, CFB Bank, Central and F&S Bank, which
 
is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and
incorporated herein by reference.
The transaction is currently expected to be $0.17, or 11.7%, accretive to CrossFirst’s earnings
 
per share in 2023,
assuming fully-phased in cost savings. The earnings per share accretion estimates
 
are based on anticipated cost savings of
20% of F&S Bank’s non-interest expense and do not include any
 
impact due to potential revenue synergies, although
opportunities have been identified.
 
An investor presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and
 
incorporated herein by
reference.
The transaction is currently expected to close in the second half of 2022,
 
subject to approval by Central shareholders
and bank regulatory authorities, as well as the satisfaction of other customary
 
closing conditions.
The information in Item 7.01 of this report (including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2)
 
is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01
and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of
 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")
or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed
 
to be incorporated by reference in any filing under
the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
