Law Firm Kirby McInerney LLP Investigating Potential Claims on Behalf of Intermountain Community Bancorp Stockholders

Kirby McInerney LLP is investigating potential claims against Intermountain Community Bancorp (“Intermountain” or the “Company”) IMCB concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by Columbia Banking System, Inc. (“Columbia”) COLB. Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement, Intermountain stockholders will receive $2.2930 in cash and 0.6426 shares of Columbia common stock for each share of Intermountain common stock they own, valuing the deal at approximately $18.22 per share. The total transaction value is approximately $121.5 million.

The investigation concerns whether the Intermountain Board of Directors violated its fiduciary duties by agreeing to the proposed transaction and whether the proposed consideration adequately values the Company's common stock.
