Abstract:

NEW YORK (Standard&Poor's) Aug. 2, 2004--The announced acquisition by Fifth Third Bancorp (AA-/Stable/A-1+) of First National Bankshares of Florida has no implications for Standard&Poor's Ratings Services' ratings on the company, as First National Bankshares of Florida represents a relatively minor transaction for Fifth Third in terms of scale. The acquisition extends Fifth Third's Florida presence by about $5 billion and is consistent with Fifth Third's historic approach of using acquisitions to enhance organic growth.
