HarborOne Bancorp Faces Legal Challenges as Merger with Eastern Bank Proceeds

HarborOne Bancorp, Inc. has disclosed an update regarding its merger with Eastern Bankshares, Inc. According to HarborOne, Eastern will acquire both HarborOne and its subsidiary, HarborOne Bank, through a merger process where HarborOne will merge into Eastern, which will emerge as the surviving entity. Following this, HarborOne Bank is set to merge with Eastern Bank, making Eastern Bank the surviving bank. The transaction has encountered some challenges, as HarborOne received 11 demand letters from purported shareholders between June 23, 2025, and July 31, 2025, alleging omissions in the proxy statement/prospectus. Additionally, a complaint was filed in New York state court by a purported individual shareholder against the Company and certain members of its board of directors.
