National Bank Holdings Corporation, the parent company of Bank Midwest, announced it has completed its acquisition of Vista Bancshares, Inc., and will begin adopting the Vista Bank brand for its operations.

Following the completion of the merger of Vista, the NBHC organization will begin adopting the Vista Bank brand in Texas and incorporating it across the entire enterprise, including its subsidiary in Kansas and Missouri, Bank Midwest and Bank Midwest Mortgage. The systems integration is scheduled for the third quarter of 2026.

National Bank Holdings Corporation (NBHC) has approximately $12.6 billion in pro forma assets and $10.7 billion in pro forma deposits as of September 30, 2025.

The total transaction value, based on NBHC’s January 6, 2026, closing price, is approximately $377.4 million.

“We are pleased to welcome Vista Bank associates and clients into our Bank family,” Chairman and CEO of NBHC, Tim Laney, said in a release. “Vista Bank’s strong leadership team in combination with our fortress balance sheet will enable us to offer truly differentiated and expanded banking services to commercial and business banking clients including across the Vista markets.”

In December, NBHC received regulatory approval from the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City in accordance with the merger deal. The company announced it had signed a merger agreement to acquire Dallas-based Vista Bancshares, Inc., and Vista Bank in September.
