Tompkins Financial sold its subsidiary Tompkins Insurance Agencies to Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. for about $223 million in cash, subject to customary adjustments, and its press release says the sale closed with a pre-tax gain of $183 million. The same day, the company sold $565.0 million of debt securities at a pre-tax loss of about $79.5 million and reinvested the proceeds at an estimated higher yield, so the net effect on results depends on both moves.
