State Auto shares surges 189%,as Liberty Mutual Insurance to acquire State Auto for $52 Per Share, or 200% Premium.

Liberty Mutual is preparing to acquire super-regional insurance holding company State Auto Group in a cash deal that values the company at roughly $2.30 billion, or $52 per share.

The acquisition will significantly expand Liberty Mutual’s position in the personal lines and small commercial insurance space.

Through the deal, Liberty Mutual will add $2.3 billion in premium and State Auto’s network of approximately 3,400 independent agencies across 33 states and is expected to become the second largest carrier in this key distribution channel.

The transaction was approved by the State Auto Financial and State Auto Mutual board of directors and is expected to close in 2022.

In connection with the merger of State Auto Financial, State Auto Mutual has entered into a voting agreement with Liberty Mutual under which it has agreed to vote its 58.8% interest in State Auto Financial in favor of the merger.

“State Auto Group’s capabilities and product expertise are an ideal complement to Liberty Mutual’s domestic personal lines and small commercial business, and we welcome 2,000 talented associates to our family,” said Liberty Mutual Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Long.

“Equally appealing are its values. For almost a century, State Auto has celebrated a culture of caring for people, exceptional service and deep philanthropy, mirroring our purpose to help people embrace today and confidently pursue tomorrow.”

“The opportunity to join the Liberty Mutual organisation is a direct result of the incredible work of the State Auto team, beginning with the transformation of our business and culture that began in 2015,” said State Auto President and CEO Mike LaRocco.

“We’ve become a digital provider of auto, home and business insurance while remaining fully committed to the independent agency system, as we’ve been since our founding 100 years ago. Our partnership with Liberty Mutual will further that commitment to independent agents and contribute to the collective success of our agents, policyholders, shareholders and associates.”
