Columbia Financial has struck a deal to buy fellow New Jersey bank holding company Northfield Bancorp for about $597 million in cash and stock.

Columbia, based in Fair Lawn, on Monday said the acquisition of Woodbridge-based Northfield will create the third-largest regional bank headquartered in New Jersey, with total assets of roughly $18 billion.

Columbia said it will issue between 1.425 shares and 1.465 shares, or between $14.25 and $14.65 in cash, for each share of Northfield, with the final consideration to be based on an independent appraisal of the combined company following a planned conversion and reorganization of Columbia and its majority owner, Columbia Bank MHC into a fully public stock holding company.

The deal is slated to close early in the third quarter.

Trading in shares of Northfield, which closed Friday at $12.32, was halted premarket on Monday.
