Genesis Bank (“Genesis” or the “Bank”) announced today that it has completed its acquisition of Excel Bank, a tradename of EH National Bank (“Excel”), effective as of June 13, 2025.

Stephen H. Gordon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Genesis Bank, stated, “We are excited to welcome the clients and employees of Excel Bank to Genesis Bank. Throughout our interactions over the past couple months, it’s clear that Excel has built a strong and loyal client base – including small to mid-size businesses, commercial real estate investors, owners, and their operations, as well as fiduciary and specialty companies. As we are on track to complete the client conversion experience expeditiously, we look forward to deepening our relationships with Excel’s existing and prospective clients by providing full access to our leading technology platform and comprehensive suite of commercial and treasury cash management products, services, and solutions. With our client outreach efforts well underway, the inherent synergies – across our Southern California footprint, complementary business lines, and client base – are actively being realized by our collective team of veteran bankers and positioning us for continued growth and scale.”

Mr. Gordon added, “I’d like to thank all the employees at Genesis and Excel, who have worked tirelessly to successfully reach this critical milestone. The high level of collaboration, execution, and efficiency, exemplifies our client centric focus, as we continue to pursue our strategic objectives, both organic and through acquisitions.”
