QNB Corp. and The Victory Bancorp, Inc. have obtained all necessary regulatory approvals to proceed with their previously announced merger combination. The transaction, which was initially unveiled on September 23, 2025, is now positioned to close during the second quarter of 2026, contingent upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The merged entity will combine QNB Bank's twelve-branch footprint across Pennsylvania with Victory Bank's four offices located in Montgomery and Berks Counties, creating an expanded regional banking presence. The regulatory clearances represent a significant milestone in the transaction timeline, removing a key obstacle to completion.
With all required approvals now secured, the banking institutions are expected to move forward with integration planning and operational preparations ahead of the anticipated mid-year closing. The combination aims to enhance the competitive positioning of the combined organization within its operating markets.
