NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1 –Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included in this report have been prepared for Park National Corporation (the(sometimes also referred to as the “Registrant”) and its subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to "Park", “Corporation”, “Company”,the "Corporation" or “Park”)the "Company" and similar terms mean Park National Corporation and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations for the interim periods included herein have been made. The results of operations for the three and sixmonth periodperiods ended March 31,June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be anticipated for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed balance sheets, condensed statements of income, condensed statements of comprehensive income, condensed statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and condensed statements of cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Park for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 from Park’s 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders (“2011 Annual Report”).

Park’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 2011 Annual Report. For interim reporting purposes, Park follows the same basic accounting policies, as updated by the information contained in this report, and considers each interim period an integral part of an annual period. Management has evaluated events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date, determining no events require additional disclosure in these consolidated condensed financial statements, with the exception of the subsequent events discussed in Note 20 of these Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

statements.

Note 2 –Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements:

No. 2011-04 – Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirement in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs: In May 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04,Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirement in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs(ASU (ASU 2011-04). The new guidance in this ASU results in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. Certain amendments clarify FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements. Other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. These amendments also enhance disclosure requirements surrounding fair value measurement. Most significantly, an entity is required to disclose additional information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements including quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used by the entity, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The adoption of the new guidance on January 1, 2012 impacted the fair value disclosures in Note 16.

No. 2011-05 – Presentation of Comprehensive Income: In June 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-05,Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05). The ASU eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. An entity can elect to present the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income, when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income, or how earnings per share is calculated or presented. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 and must be applied retrospectively. The adoption of the new guidance impacted the presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

No. 2011-08 –Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: In September 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-08,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (ASU 2011-08). The ASU allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests

performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Management does not expect theThe adoption of this guidance willdid not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

No. 2011-12 Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05: In December 2011,FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-12,Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 (ASU 2011-12). This ASU defers only those changes in ASU 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. Entities are to continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before ASU 2011-05. The other requirements in ASU 2011-05 are not affected by this ASU.

Credit Quality Indicators

Management utilizes past due information as a credit quality indicator across the loan portfolio. Past due information as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is included in the tables above. Generally, Park considers loans 90 days or more past due to be nonperforming. The past due information is the primary credit quality indicator within the following classes of loans: (1) mortgage loans and installment loans in the construction real estate segment; (2) mortgage loans, HELOC and installment loans in the residential real estate segment; and (3) consumer loans. The primary credit indicator for commercial loans is based on an internal grading system that grades all commercial loans from 1 to 8. Credit grades are continuously monitored by the respective loan officer and adjustments are made when appropriate. A grade of 1 indicates little or no credit risk and a grade of

17


8 is considered a loss. Commercial loans with grades of 1 to 44.5 (pass-rated) are considered to be of acceptable credit risk. Commercial loans graded a 5 (special mention) are considered to be watch list credits and a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated to these loans. Loans classified as special mention have potential weaknesses that require management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date. Commercial loans graded 6 (substandard), also considered watch list credits, are considered to represent higher credit risk and, as a result, a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated to these loans. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Commercial loans that are graded a 7 (doubtful) are shown as nonaccrual and Park generally charges these loans down to their fair value by taking a partial charge-off or recording a specific reserve. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Any commercial loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged-off.

The tables below present the recorded investment by loan grade at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 for all commercial loans:

Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs)

Management classifies loans as TDRs when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and Park has granted a concession. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy. Management’s policy is to modify loans by extending the term or by granting a temporary or permanent contractual interest rate below the market rate, not by forgiving debt. Certain loans which were modified during the period ended March 31,June 30, 2012 did not meet the definition of a TDR as the modification was a delay in a payment that was considered to be insignificant. Management considers a forbearance period of up to three months or a delay in payment of up to 30 days to be insignificant. TDRs may be classified as accruing if the borrower has been current for a period of at least six months with respect to loan payments and management expects that the borrower will be able to continue to make payments in accordance with the terms of the restructured note. Management reviews all accruing TDRs quarterly to ensure payments continue to be made in accordance with the modified terms.

At March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were $98.6$102.4 million and $100.4$100.4 million, respectively, of TDRs included in nonaccrual loan totals. As of March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were $34.6$27.3 million and $28.7$28.7 million, respectively, of TDRs included in accruing loan totals. At March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 $52.8, $68.4 million and $79.9$79.9 million of the nonaccrual TDRs were current. Management will continue to review the restructured loans and may determine it appropriate to move certain of the loans back to accrual status in the future. At March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Park had commitments to lend $5.1$3.5 million and $4.0$4.0 million, respectively, of additional funds to borrowers whose terms had been modified in a TDR.

The specific reserve related to TDRs at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $4.4$7.4 million and $9.1$9.1 million, respectively. Modifications made in 2011 and 2012 were largely the result of renewals, extending the maturity date of the loan, at terms consistent with the original note. These modifications were deemed to be TDRs primarily due to Park’s conclusion that the borrower would likely not have qualified for similar terms through another lender. Many of the modifications deemed to be TDRs were previously identified as impaired loans, and thus were also previously evaluated for impairment under ASC 310.  Additional specific reserves of $252,000$818,000 and $1.1 million were recorded during the periodthree month and six month periods ending March 31,June 30, 2012, respectively, as a result of TDRs identified in the 2012 year.

The terms of certain other loans were modified during the threesix month period ended March 31,June 30, 2012 that did not meet the definition of a TDR. Modified substandard commercial loans which did not meet the definition of a TDR had a total recorded investment as of March 31,June 30, 2012 of $3.6 million.$1.2 million. The modification of these loans: (1) involved a modification of the terms of a loan to a borrower who was not experiencing financial difficulties, (2) resulted in a delay in a payment that was considered to be insignificant, or (3) resulted in Park obtaining additional collateral or guarantees that improved the likelihood of the ultimate collection of the loan such that the modification was deemed to be at market terms.  Modified consumer loans which did not meet the definition of a TDR had a total recorded investment as of March 31,June 30, 2012 of $6.3 million.$16.0 million. Many of these loans were modified as a lower cost option than a full refinancing to borrowers who were not experiencing financial difficulties.

difficulties but who were looking to reduce their cost of funds.

Note 6 –Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is that amount management believes is adequate to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio based on management’s evaluation of various factors including overall growth in the loan portfolio, an analysis of individual loans, prior and current loss experience, and current economic conditions. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of these and other pertinent factors as discussed within Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 2011 Annual Report.

The activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2012 and March 31,June 30, 2011 is summarized below.

primarily due to the the following:

The sale of the Vision business on February 16, 2012. As of June 30, 2011, the allowance for loan losses at Vision was $47.2 million. With the sale of the Vision business, all specific reserves established for impaired loans were charged off. Additionally, all general reserves related to performing loans retained by Vision were charged off.
Improvements in the credit quality of the Park Ohio commercial loan portfolio.

Loans collectively evaluated for impairment abovein the following tables include all performing loans at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as well as nonperforming loans internally classified as consumer loans. Nonperforming consumer loans are not typically individually evaluated for impairment, but receive a portion of the statistical allocation of the allowance for loan losses. Loans individually evaluated for impairment include all impaired loans internally classified as commercial loans at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, which are evaluated for impairment in accordance with U.S. GAAP (see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 2011 Annual Report).

As of March 31,June 30, 2012 and 2011, options to purchase 66,62565,975 and 75,89575,545 common shares, respectively, were outstanding under Park’s 2005 Incentive Stock OpionOption Plan. A warrant to purchase 227,376 common shares was outstanding at both March 31, 2012 andJune 30, 2011 as a result of Park’s participation in the U.S. Treasury Capital Purchase Program (“CPP.”) Park repurchased the CPP warrant on May 2, 2012. In addition, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 71,98435,992 common shares were outstanding at March 31,June 30, 2011 as a result of the issuance of common shares and warrants to purchase common shares on December 10, 2010 (the “December 2010 Warrants”). The December 2010 Warrants expired in 2011, with no warrants being exercised.

The common shares represented by the options and the December 2010 Warrants totaling a weighted average of 73,68370,047 and 149,591144,514 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because the respective exercise prices exceeded the market value of the underlying common shares such that their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The warrant to purchase 227,376 common shares issued under the CPP was not included in the three month weighted averagecomputation of 73,683diluted earnings per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2012 or 149,591 for and 2011, as the dilutive effect of this warrant was 11,8353,784 and 4,4902,581 common shares for the threesix month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2012 and March 31,June 30, 2011, respectively. The exercise price of the CPP warrant to purchase 227,376 common shares is $65.97.

was
$65.97.

Note 8 –Segment Information

The Corporation is a bank holding company headquartered in Newark, Ohio. Prior to February 16, 2012, the operating segments for the Corporation were its two chartered bank subsidiaries, The Park National Bank (headquartered in Newark, Ohio) (“PNB”) and Vision Bank (“VB” or “Vision”) (headquartered in Panama City, Florida). On February 16, 2012, Vision sold certain assets and liabilities to Centennial Bank (see Note 3). Promptly following the closing of the transaction, Vision surrendered its Florida banking charter to the Florida Office of Financial Regulation and became a non-bank Florida corporation (the “Florida Corporation”). The Florida Corporation merged with and into a wholly-owned non-bank subsidiary of Park, SE Property Holdings, LLC (“SE LLC”SEPH”), with SE LLCSEPH being the surviving entity. The closing of this transaction prompted Park to add SE LLCSEPH as a reportable segment. Additionally, due to the increased significance of the entity, Guardian Financial Services Company (“GFSC”) was added as a reportable segment during the first quarter of 2012.

Management is required to disclose information about the different types of business activities in which a company engages and also information on the different economic environments in which a company operates, so that the users of the financial statements can better understand the company’s performance, better understand the potential for future cash flows, and make more informed judgments about the company as a whole. Park has three operating segments, as: (i) discrete financial information is available for each operating segment and (ii) the segments are aligned with internal reporting to Park’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker.

Note 14 –Derivative Instruments

FASB ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. As required by U.S. GAAP, the Company records all derivatives on the consolidated condensed balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivativesa derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, with any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative recognized directly in earnings. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction.

During the first quarter of 2008, the Company executed an interest rate swap to hedge a $25$25 million floating-rate subordinated note that was issued by Park during the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company’s objective in using this derivative is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. Our interest rate swap involves the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying principal amount, and has been designated as a cash flow hedge.

At March 31,June 30, 2012, the interest rate swap’s fair value of $(700,000)$(448,000) was included in other liabilities. No hedge ineffectiveness on the cash flow hedge was recognized during the three and six months ended March 31, 2012.June 30, 2012. At March 31,June 30, 2012, the variable rate on the $25$25 million subordinated note was 2.47%2.46% (3-month LIBOR plus 200 basis points) and Park was paying 6.01% (4.01% (4.01% fixed rate on the interest rate swap plus 200 basis points).

For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2012, the change in the fair value of the interest rate swap reported in other comprehensive income was a gain of $113,000$259,000 (net of taxes of $60,000)$139,000). Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swap will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.

As of March 31,June 30, 2012, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign operations. Additionally, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

As of March 31,June 30, 2012, Park had mortgage loan interest rate lock commitments outstanding of approximately $16.0 million.$27.0 million. Park has specific forward contracts to sell each of these loans to a third-party investor. These loan commitments represent derivative instruments, which are required to be carried at fair value. The derivative instruments used are not designated as hedges under U.S. GAAP. At March 31,June 30, 2012, the fair value of the derivative instruments was approximately $169,000.$365,000. The fair value of the derivative instruments is included within loans held for sale and the corresponding income is included within non-yield loan fee income. Gains and losses resulting from expected sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the respective loan contract is entered into between the borrower, Park, and the third-party investor. The fair value of Park’s mortgage interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) is based on current secondary market pricing.

In connection with the sale of Park’s Class B Visa shares during the 2009, year, Park entered into a swap agreement with the purchaser of the shares. The swap agreement adjusts for dilution in the conversion ratio of Class B Visa shares resulting from certain Visa litigation. At March 31,June 30, 2012, the fair value of the swap liability of $135,000$135,000 is an estimate of the exposure based upon probability-weighted potential Visa litigation losses.

losses and consideration of the Visa settlement agreement announced on July 13, 2012 to resolve the Federal Multi-District Interchange Litigation.

Note 15 –Loan Servicing

Park serviced sold mortgage loans of $1.30$1.3 billion at March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $1.35$1.35 billion at December 31, 2011 and $1.44$1.42 billion at March 31, 2011.June 30, 2011. At March 31,June 30, 2012 $22.6, $20.3 million of the sold mortgage loans were sold with recourse compared to $34.1$32.2 million at March 31, 2011.June 30, 2011. Management closely monitors the delinquency rates on the mortgage loans sold with recourse. At March 31,June 30, 2012, management determined that no liability was deemed necessary for these loans.

When Park sells mortgage loans with servicing rights retained, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value. Park selected the “amortization method” as permissible within GAAP, whereby the servicing rights capitalized are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated future servicing income of the underlying loan. At the end of each reporting period, the carrying value of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) is assessed for impairment with a comparison to fair value. MSRs are carried at the lower of their amortized cost or fair value.

Note 16 –Fair Value

The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that Park uses to measure fair value are as follows:

§Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that Park has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
§Level 2: Level 1 inputs for assets or liabilities that are not actively traded. Also consists of an observable market price for a similar asset or liability. This includes the use of “matrix pricing” to value debt securities absent the exclusive use of quoted prices.
§Level 3: Consists of unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair value when observable market inputs are not available. This could include the use of internally developed models, financial forecasting and similar inputs.


Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that Park has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Level 1 inputs for assets or liabilities that are not actively traded. Also consists of an observable market price for a similar asset or liability. This includes the use of “matrix pricing” to value debt securities absent the exclusive use of quoted prices.
Level 3: Consists of unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair value when observable market inputs are not available. This could include the use of internally developed models, financial forecasting and similar inputs.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants at the balance sheet date. When possible, the Company looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, the Company looks to observable market data for similar assets and liabilities. However, certain assets and liabilities are not traded in observable markets and Park must use other valuation methods to develop a fair value. The fair value of impaired loans is typically based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, which is estimated through third-party appraisals or internal estimates of collateral values.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2012 or 2011.2011. Management’s policy is to transfer assets or liabilities from one level to another when the methodology to obtain the fair value changes such that there are more or fewer unobservable inputs.

inputs as of the end of the reporting period.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in determining fair value of the financial assets and liabilities discussed above:

Investment securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. The Fair Value Measurements tables exclude Park’s Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock. These assets are carried at their respective redemption values, as it is not practicable to calculate their fair values. For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, which include municipal securities, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows.

Interest rate swap: The fair value of the interest rate swap represents the estimated amount Park would pay or receive to terminate the agreement, considering current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparty.


33


Fair value swap: The fair value of the swap agreement entered into with the purchaser of the Visa Class B shares represents an internally developed estimate of the exposure based upon probability-weighted potential Visa litigation losses.

Mortgage Interest Rate Lock Commitments (IRLCs):IRLCs are based on current secondary market pricing and are classified as Level 2.

Mortgage loans held for sale: Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at their fair value.Mortgagevalue. Mortgage loans held for sale are estimated using security prices for similar product types and, therefore, are classified in Level 2.

The table below is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Level 3 inputs for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2012 and 2011, for financial instruments measured on a recurring basis and classified as Level 3:

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis described below:

Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value have been partially charged-off or receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonlygenerally based on real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using (1) an appraisal, (2) net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or (3) aging reports. Collateral is then adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. Additionally, updated valuations are obtained annually for all impaired loans in accordance with Company policy.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO): Assets acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired. The carrying value of OREO is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis, but is subject to fair value adjustments when the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based on recent real estate appraisals and is updated at least annually. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including the comparable sales approach and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by licensed appraisers. Appraisals are generally obtained to support the fair value of collateral. In general, there are two types of appraisals, real estate appraisals and lot development loan appraisals, received by the Company. These are discussed below:

·Real estate appraisals typically incorporate measures such as recent sales prices for comparable properties. Appraisers may make adjustments to the sales prices of the comparable properties as deemed appropriate based on the age, condition or general characteristics of the subject property. Management generally applies a 15% discount to real estate appraised values which management expects will cover all disposition costs (including selling costs). This 15% discount is based on historical discounts to appraised values on sold OREO properties.
·Lot development loan appraisals are typically performed using a discounted cash flow analysis. Appraisers determine an anticipated absorption period and a discount rate that takes into account an investor’s required rate of return based on recent comparable sales. Management generally applies a 6% discount to lot development appraised values, which is an additional discount above the net present value calculation included in the appraisal, to account for selling costs.

MSRs:MSRs are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.MSRsvalue. MSRs do not trade in active, open markets with readily observable prices. For example, sales of MSRs do occur, but precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available. As such, management, with the assistance of a third-party specialist, determines fair value based on the discounted value of the future cash flows estimated to be received. Significant inputs include the discount rate and assumed prepayment speeds utilized. The calculated fair value is then compared to market values where possible to ascertain the reasonableness of the valuation in relation to current market expectations for similar products. Accordingly, MSRs are classified as Level 2.

Loans receivable:For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair values for certain mortgage loans (e.g., one-to-four family residential) are based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Off-balance sheet instruments:Fair values for the Corporation’s loan commitments and standby letters of credit are based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The carrying amount and fair value are not material.

Deposit liabilities:The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, savings, and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts for variable-rate, fixed-term certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed ratefixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities of time deposits.


37


Short-term borrowings:The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.

Long-term debt:Fair values for long-term debt are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on long-term debt to a schedule of monthly maturities.

Subordinated debentures and notes:Fair values for subordinated debentures and notes are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rate spreads currently being offered on similar debt structures to a schedule of monthly maturities.

The fair value of financial instruments at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was as follows:

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) contains forward-looking statements that are provided to assist in the understanding of anticipated future financial performance. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. We have tried, whenever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include, without limitation: deterioration in the asset value of Park's loan portfolio may be worse than expected due to a number of factors, such as adverse changes in economic conditions that impair the ability of borrowers to repay their loans, the underlying value of the collateral could prove less valuable than assumed and cash flows may be worse than expected; Park's ability to sell OREO properties at prices as favorable as anticipated; Park's ability to execute its business plan successfully and within the expected timeframe; general economic and financial market conditions, and weakening in the economy, specifically the real estate market and the credit market, either nationally or in the states in which Park and its subsidiaries do business, may be worse than expected which could decrease the demand for loan, deposit and other financial services and increase loan delinquencies and defaults; changes in interest rates and prices may adversely impact the value of securities, loans, deposits and other financial instruments and the interest rate sensitivity of our consolidated balance sheet; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits; changes in unemployment; asset/liability repricing risks and liquidity risks; our liquidity requirements could be adversely affected by changes in our assets and liabilities; competitive factors among financial service organizations increase significantly, including product and pricing pressures and our ability to attract, develop and retain qualified bank professionals; the nature, timing and effect of changes in banking regulations or other regulatory or legislative requirements affecting the respective businesses of Park and its subsidiaries, including changes in laws and regulations concerning taxes, accounting, banking, securities and other aspects of the financial services industry, specifically the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), as well as future regulations which will be adopted by the relevant regulatory agencies, including the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, to implement the Dodd-Frank Act’s provisions; the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and other regulatory agencies, and the accuracy of our assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements; the effect of fiscal and governmental policies of the United States federal government; the costs and effects of regulatory and legal developments, including the outcome of potential regulatory or other governmental inquiries and legal proceedings and results of regulatory examinations; the adequacy of our risk management program; a failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third-party vendors and other service providers, including as a result of cyber attacks; demand for loans in the respective market areas served by Park and its subsidiaries; and other risk factors relating to the banking industry as detailed from time to time in Park’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including those described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of Part I of Park’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Park does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the events or circumstances after the date on which the forward-looking statement is made, or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies

Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders (“2011 Annual Report”) lists significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation of Park’s consolidated financial statements. The accounting and reporting policies of Park conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Park believes the determination of the allowance for loan losses involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity than its other significant accounting policies. The allowance for loan losses is calculated with the objective of maintaining a reserve level believed by management to be sufficient to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio and of current economic conditions. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including expected default probabilities, the loss given default, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans,

and estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgage loans based on historical loss experience and current economic conditions. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent that actual results differ from management estimates, additional loan loss provisions may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods. (Refer to the “Provision for Loan Losses” section within this MD&A for additional discussion.)

Other real estate owned (“OREO”), property acquired through foreclosure, is recorded at estimated fair value less anticipated selling costs (net realizable value). If the net realizable value is below the carrying value of the loan on the date of transfer, the difference is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent declines in value, OREO devaluations, are reported as adjustments to the carrying amount of OREO and are expensed within other income. Gains or losses not previously recognized, resulting from the sale of OREO, are recognized in other income on the date of sale. At March 31,June 30, 2012, OREO totaled $42.0$38.4 million, representing a 0.7%9.2% decrease compared to $42.3 million at December 31, 2011. The $300,000$3.9 million net decrease in OREO during the first threesix months of 2012 was a result of $5.0$12.9 million in new OREO offset by sales of $3.9$12.8 million and devaluations of $1.4$4.0 million.

U.S. GAAP requires management to establish a fair value hierarchy, which has the objective of maximizing the use of observable market inputs. U.S. GAAP also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the inputs used to calculate fair value. These are classified as Level 1, 2, and 3. Level 3 inputs are those with significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the market for a particular instrument. Some of these inputs could be based on internal models and cash flow analyses.analysis. At March 31,June 30, 2012, the fair value of assets based on Level 3 inputs for Park was approximately $126.0$100.4 million.This was 11.0%10.1% of the total amount of assets measured at fair value as of the end of the firstsecond quarter. The fair value of impaired loans was approximately $83.3$61.3 million (or 66.1%61.1%) of the total amount of Level 3 inputs. Additionally, there were $86.5$102.3 million of loans that were impaired and carried at cost, as fair value exceeded book value for each individual credit. The large majority of Park’s Level 2 inputs consist of available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities. The fair value of these AFS securities is obtained largely through the use of matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the financial services industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities.

Management believes that the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets also involves a higher degree of judgment than most other significant accounting policies. U.S. GAAP establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and the impairment assessment of goodwill. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. Park’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of Park’s Ohio-based banking subsidiary, The Park National Bank (“PNB”) to provide quality, cost-effective banking services in a competitive marketplace. The goodwill value is supported by revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted. A decrease in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base, the inability to deliver cost-effective services over sustained periods or significant credit problems can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future periods. U.S. GAAP requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Park’s most recent evaluation was completed during the second quarter of 20112012 and resulted in no impairment of goodwill. The fair value of the goodwill, which resides on the books of PNB, is estimated by reviewing the past and projected operating results for PNB, deposit and loan totals for PNB and banking industry comparable information. At March 31,June 30, 2012, on a consolidated basis, Park had core deposit intangibles of $755,000$615,000 subject to amortization and $72.3 million of goodwill, which was not subject to periodic amortization. Please see Note 4 –Goodwill and Intangible Assets of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on intangible assets.

The $109 million (2.61%) increase in loans experienced at PNB through the first quarter of 2012, management expects the performance over the remaining ninesix months of 2012 will bring these backis primarily related to continued demand in linethe mortgage loan portfolio, which has increased by $91.8 million. Of the $91.8 million increase in the mortgage loan portfolio, approximately $86 million of the increase is associated with our original projections. The amounts above 25%decision to retain a portion of the annual projection during15-year, fixed-rate mortgages originated by PNB rather than selling them in the secondary market. As noted above, PNB's allowance for loan losses has declined by $14.8 million, or 20.77%, to $56.3 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $71.0 million at June 30, 2011. The decline in PNB's allowance for loan losses is due to continued improvement in the credit metrics across the PNB loan portfolio, as well as declines in specific reserves established for impaired commercial loans. Refer to the “Credit Metrics and Provision for Loan Losses” section below for additional information regarding the improvements in the credit metrics of PNB's loan portfolio.

The net interest income for Park's parent company includes interest income on loans to SEPH and on subordinated debt investments with PNB, which are eliminated in the consolidated totals for the Corporation. Additionally, net interest income includes interest expense associatedrelated to the $35.25 million and $30 million of subordinated notes issued by Park in December 2009 and April 2012, respectively.

breakeven. As such, management expected net income of approximately $1 million for the combined operations of Vision through February 16, 2012 and SEPH throughout the 2012 year. Management's most recent projection for the twelvecombined SEPH / Vision is a net loss of $3.7 million for 2012. The decline in projected net income is primarily due to increased provision for loan losses and other expense at SEPH through the first six months ending Decemberof 2012.

On February 16, 2012, when Vision merged with and into SEPH, the loans then held by Vision were transferred to SEPH by operation of law at their fair market value and no allowance for loan loss has been or will be carried at SEPH. The loans included in both the performing and nonperforming portfolios have been charged down to their fair value.

the quarter to 1.65% at the end of the quarter.

In December 2008, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve lowered the targeted federal funds rate to a range of 0% to 0.25% in response to a severe recession in the U.S. economy. Economic conditions began to improve in the second half of 2009 and continued to improve modestly throughout 2010 and 2011. The modest economic recovery has continued during the first threesix months of 2012, but the U.S. housing market continues to be significantly depressed and the U.S. unemployment rate continues to be relatively high at 8.2% as of March 31,June 30, 2012.

The decline in general reserves as a percent of non-impaired loans from 1.27% at December 31, 2011 to 1.13% at June 30, 2012 is primarily due to the elimination of general reserves held against the retained Vision performing loans that are held at SEPH and improving credit trends in the commercial loan portfolios have beenportfolio for Park's Ohio operations (PNB and GFSC). At December 31, 2011, Vision had general reserves of approximately $1.85 million, which were established to cover incurred losses on the retained performing loans following the sale of the Vision business to Centennial. Upon completion of the sale of the Vision business and prior to the merger of Vision with and into SEPH on February 16, 2012, all retained loans (performing and nonperforming) were charged down to their fair value, as notedresulting in a $1.85 million decline in Park's general reserves.

commercial portfolio. Pass rated commercial loans have grown $36.7 million, or 1.72% (3.47% annualized) since December 2011. Over this period, special mention loans have declined by $6.7 million, or 10.1% and substandard loans have declined by $19.3 million, or 65.3%. These improved credit metrics in the special mention and substandard categories of the commercial loan portfolio have a significant impact on the general reserves that are established to cover incurred losses on performing commercial loans. As these metrics have improved over the past six months, general reserves have declined.

Delinquent and accruing loan trends for Park's Ohio-based operations have also improved over the past six months. Delinquent and accruing loans were $32.7 million or 0.76% of total loans at June 30, 2012, compared to $40.1 million (0.96%) at December 31, 2011.

Impaired commercial loans have increased to $103.1 million as of June 30, 2012, an increase of $8.0 million from the $95.1 of impaired loans at December 31, 2011. Impaired commercial loans are individually evaluated for impairment and specific reserves are established to cover incurred losses.

During the first six months of 2012, new nonaccrual loans were $39.9 million. These new nonaccruals were down significantly from the total level of new nonaccrual loans experienced in the previous four years and management expects this will continue throughout 2012. The following table below:

As part of the transaction between Vision and Centennial, Park agreed to allow Centennial to “put back” up to $7.5 million aggregate principal amount of loans, which were originally included within the loans sold in the transaction. The loan put-backput option expires 180 dayson August 16, 2012, six months after the closing of the transaction, on Augustwhich was February 16, 2012. While it remains uncertainPark's management expects Centennial will put back the total principalfull amount of $7.5 million. Through June 30, 2012, Centennial had put back two loans, totaling approximately $169,000. Upon repurchase, Park is required to charge each of the repurchased loans down to its current fair value. Refer to additional discussion of the loan put-back option within the "Total Other Expense" section, where Park has recognized expense of $3.4 million through June 30, 2012 to establish a liability account, which will be used to reduce repurchased loans to their estimated fair value. The fair value of the repurchased loans, which maywe currently expect will be put back by Centennial and the potential loss exposure that mayapproximately $4.1 million, will be recognized in connection with anyrecorded as loans repurchased, Park recorded a loan loss provision of $662,000 in respect of the Centennial put-back option during the first quarter of 2012. The $662,000 is included within other liabilities on the SEPH balance sheet and when combined with Park’s ALLL balancesheet.

Park management reviews all troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) quarterly and may classify a TDR as accruing if the borrower has been current for a period of at least six months with respect to loan payments and management expects that the borrower will be able to continue to make payments in accordance with the terms of the restructured note. At March 31,June 30, 2012, management deemed it appropriate to have $34.4$27.3 million of TDRs on accrual status, while the remaining $98.6$102.2 million of TDRs were on nonaccrual status. Management also reviews all accruing TDRs quarterly to ensure payments continue to be made in accordance with the modified terms.

When determining the quarterly loan loss provision, Park reviews the grades of commercial loans. These loans are graded from 1 to 8. A grade of 1 indicates little or no credit risk and a grade of 8 is considered a loss. Commercial loans with grades of 1 to 44.5 (pass-rated) are considered to be of acceptable credit risk. Commercial loans graded a 5 (special mention) are considered to be watch list credits and a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated to these loans. Commercial loans graded 6 (substandard), also considered watch list credits, are considered to represent higher credit risk than those rated special mention and, as a result, a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated to these loans. Generally, commercial loans that are graded a 6 are considered for partial charge-off. Commercial loans that are graded a 7 (doubtful) are shown as nonperforming and Park generally charges these loans down to their fair value by taking a partial charge-off or recording a specific reserve. Any commercial loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged-off.

As of March 31,June 30, 2012, Park had taken partial charge-offs of approximately $108.3$107.2 million related to the $179.3$169.6 million of commercial loans considered to be impaired, compared to charge-offs of approximately $103.8 million related to the $187.1 million of impaired commercial loans at December 31, 2011. The table below provides additional information related to the Park impaired commercial loans at March 31,June 30, 2012, including those impaired commercial loans at PNB and those impaired Vision commercial loans retained at SE LLC.

A significant portion of Park’s allowance for loan losses is allocated to commercial loans classified as “special mention” or “substandard.” “Special mention” loans are loans that have potential weaknesses that may result in loss exposure to Park. “Substandard” loans are those that exhibit a well defined weakness, jeopardizing repayment of the loan, resulting in a higher probability that Park will suffer a loss on the loan unless the weakness is corrected. Park’s annualized 36-month loss experience for the period ended December 31, 2011, defined as charge-offs plus changes in specific reserves, within the commercial loan portfolio has been 0.71% of the principal balance of these loans. This annualized 36-month loss experience includes only the performance of the PNB loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses related to performing commercial loans was $36.4$33.7 million or 1.64%1.50% of the outstanding principal balance of other accruing commercial loans at March 31,June 30, 2012.

The overall reserve of 1.64%1.50% for other accruing commercial loans breaks down as follows: pass-rated commercial loans are reserved at 1.35%1.34%; special mention commercial loans are reserved at 4.66%4.21%; and substandard commercial loans are reserved at 21.77%6.34%. The reserve levels for pass-rated, special mention and substandard commercial loans in excess of the annualized 36-month loss experience of 0.71% are due to the following factors which management reviews on a quarterly or annual basis:

§Loss Emergence Period Factor:Annually during the fourth quarter, management calculates the loss emergence period for each commercial loan segment. This loss emergence period is calculated based upon the average period of time it takes a credit to move from pass-rated to non - accrual. If the loss emergence period for any commercial loan segment is greater than one year, management applies additional general reserves to all performing loans within that segment of the commercial loan portfolio.

§Loss Migration Factor:Park’s commercial loans are individually risk graded. If loan downgrades occur, the probability of default increases, and accordingly, management allocates a higher percentage reserve to those accruing commercial loans graded special mention and substandard. Annually, management calculates a loss migration factor for each commercial loan segment for special mention and substandard credits based on a review of losses over the past three year period, considering how each individual credit was rated at the beginning of the three year period.

§Environmental Loss Factor:Management has identified certain macroeconomic factors that trend in accordance with losses in Park’s commercial loan portfolio. These macroeconomic factors are reviewed quarterly and adjustments to the environmental loss factor impacting each segment in the performing commercial loan portfolio correlates to changes in the macroeconomic environment.

Environmental Loss Factor: Management has identified certain macroeconomic factors that trend in accordance with losses in Park’s commercial loan portfolio. These macroeconomic factors are reviewed quarterly and adjustments to the environmental loss factor impacting each segment in the performing commercial loan portfolio correlates to changes in the macroeconomic environment.
Generally, consumer loans are not individually graded. Consumer loans include: (1) mortgage and installment loans included in the construction real estate segment of the loan portfolio; (2) mortgage, home equity lines of credit (HELOC), and installment loans included in the residential real estate segment of the loan portfolio; and (3) all loans included in the consumer segment of the loan portfolio. The amount of loan loss reserve assigned to these loans is based on historical loss experience over the past 36 months. Management generally considers a one-year coverage period (the “Historical Loss Factor”) appropriate because the probable loss on any given loan in the consumer loan pool should ordinarily become apparent in that time frame. However, management may incorporate adjustments to the Historical Loss Factor as circumstances warrant additional reserves (e.g., increased loan delinquencies, improving or deteriorating economic conditions, changes in lending management and underwriting standards, etc.). At March 31,June 30, 2012, the coverage period within the consumer portfolio was approximately 1.341.33 years.

The judgmental increases discussed above incorporate management’s evaluation of the impact of environmental qualitative factors which pose additional risks and assignment of a component of the ALLL in consideration of these factors. Such environmental factors include: national and local economic trends and conditions; experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff; effects of any changes in lending policies and procedures; and levels of, and trends in, consumer bankruptcies, delinquencies, impaired loans and charge-offs and recoveries. The determination of this component of the ALLL requires considerable management judgment. Management continues to work to address weaknesses in those loans that may result in future loss. Actual loss experience may be more or less than the amount allocated.

On page 41 of Park’s 2011 Annual Report, management projected that the provision for loan losses would be within the range from $20 million to $27 million for 2012. While managementManagement expects that the provision for loan losses will be lower in eachthe second half of the next three quarters2012 compared to the first quartersix months of 2012, the projected range for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 has been increased.2012. Management now expects the provision for loan losses will be within the range of $23 million to $30approximately $24.4 million for 2012.

Actual provision for loan losses could be more or less than the projected amount. Refer to Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion of certain risks related to management's projection of the provision for loan losses.

Income from fiduciary activities, which represents revenue earned from Park’s trust activities, increased by $106,000,$115,000, or 2.8%2.9%, to $3.8$4.0 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $3.7$3.9 million for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, income from fiduciary activities increased by $221,000, or 2.9%, to $7.9 million compared to $7.7 million in 2011. Fiduciary fees are generally charged based on the market value of customer accounts. The average market value for assets under management for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2012 was $3,554$3,499 million, an increase of approximately 3.2%1.3% compared to the average for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2011 of $3,445$3,453 million.

Service charges on deposits decreased by $174,000,$371,000, or 4.1%8.2%, to $4.1$4.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $4.2$4.5 million for the same period in 2011. Through the first six months of 2012, service charges declined $545,000, or 6.2%, to $8.2 million, compared to $8.8 million in 2011. This decrease was primarily attributable to a modest decline in non-sufficient funds (“NSF”) and overdraft charges during the first threesix months of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.

Fee income earned from origination and sale into the secondary market of long-term fixed-rate mortgage loans is included within other non-yield related fees in the subcategory “Other service income”. Other service income increased by $433,000,$683,000, or 18.8%25.0%, to $2.7$3.4 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $2.3$2.7 million for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, other service income increased by $1.1 million, or 22.2%, to $6.2 million, compared to $5.0 million in 2011. This increase was due to an increase in mortgage originations during the first threesix months of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.

Checkcard fee income, which is generated from debit card transactions, increased $196,000, or 6.6%,


OREO devaluations decreased by $707,000 to $3.2$2.6 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $3.0$3.4 million for the same period in 2011. This increase was attributable to continued increases in the volume of debit card transactions. For the first threesix months ofended June 30, 2012, the number of Visa debit card transactions increased by 7.4% compared to the same period in 2011.

OREO devaluations decreased by $1.2$1.9 million to $1.4$4.0 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $2.5$5.9 million for the same period in 2011. Approximately $1.1$3.3 million of the devaluations were at SE LLCSEPH and $0.3 million$700,000 were at PNB during the first quarterhalf of 2012.


Gain/loss on the sale of OREO, net, increased by $1.9 million to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $330,000 for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, gain/loss on the sale of OREO, net, increased by $2.8 million to $3.2 million, compared to $482,000 for the same period in 2011. The increases through the first six months of 2012 are largely due to gains on the sale of OREO at SEPH. Sales at SEPH through June 30, 2012 totaled $9.8 million on OREO assets carried at $7.8 million, representing a gain on sale of approximately $2.0 million.
Management provided guidance in Park’s 2011 Annual Report (page 40) that total other income would be approximately $62 million to $66 million for 2012. Management’s latest projections remain unchanged from thoseprojection for total other income is $67.4 million for 2012.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased by $241,000,$2.4 million, or 1.0%9.7%, to $24.8$22.8 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2012 compared to $25.1$25.3 million for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, salaries and employee benefits decreased $2.7 million, or 5.3%, to $47.6 million compared to $50.3 million for the same period in 2011. Salaries and benefits for SE LLCSEPH (and Vision for first quarter 2011)2012) were $2.0$2.2 million for the first threesix months of 2012 compared to $3.1$6.2 million for the same period in 2011. Management anticipates that salaries and benefits for SE LLCSEPH will continue to decline in the second quarterhalf of 2012 as a result of the sale of the Vision business and the completion of system conversions (both for Park and Home).

to $4.9 million compared to $5.8 million for the same period in 2011. The reduction was due to a combination of the sale of the Vision business on February 16, 2012 and a modest decline at PNB.

Professional fees and services increased by $707,000,$480,000, or 14.5%9.0% to $5.6$5.8 million for the first three months ofended June 30, 2012 compared to $4.9$5.3 million for the firstsecond quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, professional fees and services increased by $1.2 million or 11.6%, to $11.4 million compared to $10.2 million for the same period in 2011. Approximately $400,000$500,000 of the increase was at PNB and consisted of higher legal expenses and higher title appraisal expenses resulting from an increase in mortgage loan originations during the quarter. The remaining increase was largely related to increases in legal fees associated withat SEPH, largely due to our continued pursuit ofcollection efforts against borrowers and guarantors at SE LLC.

Amortization of intangibles increaseddecreased by $1.1 million,$529,000, or 162%79.1% to $1.8 million$140,000 for the firstsecond quarter of 2012 compared to $669,000 for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, amortization of intangibles increased $556,000 or 41.6% to $1.9 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2011. This increase for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was due to the acceleration of amortization expense at Vision for the period from January 1, 2012 through February 16, 2012, the closing date of the transaction between Vision and Centennial. Management expects amortization expense will be approximately $139,000 per quarter for the remainder of 2012.

Insurance expense declined by $779,000 million$945,000 or 34.3%40.3% to $1.5$1.4 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2012 compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, insurance expense decreased $1.7 million or 37.4% to $2.9 million compared to $4.6 million for the same period of 2011. During the third quarter of 2011, Park began recognizing insurance expense for the premiums to be paid to the FDIC based on the new FDIC assessment methodology. This new methodology, which is based on a calculation using total assets less tangible equity. The new methodology will result in a decline in insurance expense going forward for the rest of 2012.


As previously discussed, as part of the transaction between Vision and Centennial, Park agreed to allow Centennial to “put back” up to $7.5 million aggregate principal amount of loans, which were originally included within the loans sold in the transaction. Park's management expects Centennial will put back the full amount of $7.5 million. During the second quarter of 2012, Centennial management shared a preliminary list of the loans that may be put back prior to August 16, 2012 and Park management utilized this list to determine the necessary loan put liability at June 30, 2012. Park recorded a loan put provision of $662,000 in respect of the loan put option during the first quarter of 2012 and an additional loan put provision of $2.7 million during the second quarter of 2012. Through June 30, 2012, Centennial had put back two loans, totaling approximately $169,000. At June 30, 2012, Park had approximately $3.2 million remaining in the loan put liability, which is available to cover losses recognized as loans are repurchased during the third quarter of 2012.
Management provided guidance in Park’s 2011 Annual Report (page 40) that total other expense would be approximately $170 to $175 million for 2012. Management’s latest projection for total other expense is unchanged from the guidance in Park’s 2011 Annual Report.

$179.0 million for 2012.

While SE LLCSEPH will continue to have other expense as Park management works through the retained loans and OREO, other expense at SE LLCSEPH is expected to be significantly lower than the average quarterly expense Vision expense recognized in 2011. The $6.0 million of other expense at SEPH during the second quarter of 2012 included approximately $2.7 million related to the loan put provision and certain operating expenses through the completion of the system conversions associated with the sale of the Vision business. Management currently expects total other expense on a consolidated basis will be approximately $41 to $42 million quarterly throughout the remainder of 2012.

Income Tax

Federal income taxes were $13.1tax expense was $6.3 million for the firstsecond quarter of 2012 compared to $8.3$12.0 million for the second quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, federal income tax expense was $19.3 million, compared to $20.4 million for the first quartersix months of 2011. The effective federal income tax rate for the firstsecond quarter of 2012 was 29.3%24.9% compared to 27.3%29.4% for the same period in 2011. For the first six months of 2012, the effective federal income tax rate was 27.7% compared to 28.5% for the same period in 2011. The difference between the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% and Park’s effective tax rate is the permanent tax differences, primarily consisting of tax-exempt interest income from municipal investments and loans, low income housing tax credits, bank owned life insurance income, and dividends paid on shares held within Park’s salary deferral plan. Park expects permanent tax differences for 2012 will be approximately $10 million.

Park and its Ohio-based affiliates do not pay state income taxes to the state of Ohio, but pay a franchise tax based on year end equity. The franchise tax expense is included in “state taxes” as part of other expense on Park’s Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Management provided guidance in the 2011 Annual Report (page 40) that the effective federal income tax rate for 2012 would be approximately 26% to 28%, which is consistent with management’s most recent projection.


Comparison of Financial Condition

At March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011

Changes in Financial Condition and Liquidity

Total assets decreased by $195$266 million or 2.8%3.8% to $6,777$6,706 million at March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $6,972 million at December 31, 2011. This decrease in total assets was due to the sale of Vision assets to Centennial on February 16, 2012. At December 31, 2011, $382.5 million of assets were held for sale.

Total investment securities increaseddecreased by $149$19 million or 8.7%1.1% to $1,857$1,689 million at March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $1,708 million at December 31, 2011.

Total liabilities decreased by $210$185 million or 3.4%3.0% during the first threesix months of 2012 to $6,020$6,045 million at March 31,June 30, 2012 from $6,230 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in total liabilities was primarily due to the assumption of Vision liabilities by Centennial on February 16, 2012.2012, offset by an increase in deposits. At December 31, 2011, $536.2 million of liabilities were held for sale.

Total deposits increased by $352$358 million or 7.9%8.0% during the first threesix months of 2012 to $4,817$4,823 million at March 31,June 30, 2012 from $4,465 million at December 31, 2011. The increase in deposits in the first quartersix months of 2012 was largely related to an increase in public fund deposits. This is consistent with increases in prior years. At March 31,June 30, 2011, total deposits were $5,315$5,258 million, which included deposits at Vision of $597$581 million.

Short-term borrowings decreased by $27$23 million or 10.2%8.7% to $237$241 million at March 31,June 30, 2012 from $264 million at December 31, 2011.

Park issued $30.0 million in subordinated notes during the second quarter of 2012 (see Note 20 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.)

Other liabilities increased by $2.7$3.6 million or 4.4%5.8% to $64.3$65.2 million at March 31,June 30, 2012 from $61.6 million at December 31, 2011.


Total stockholders’ equity increaseddecreased by $14$81.8 million or 1.9%11.0% to $756.4$660.6 million at March 31,June 30, 2012, from $742.4 million at December 31, 2011. Retained earnings increased by $15.5$18.0 million during the period as a result of net income of $31.5$50.4 million, offset by common dividends of $14.5$29.0 million and accretion and dividends on the preferred stock of $1.5$3.4 million. On April 25, 2012, Park repurchased the $100 million in Series A Preferred stock increased by $226,000 duringShares issued to the first three months of 2012U.S. Treasury as a resultpart of the accretion of the discount on preferred stock.

The accumulated other comprehensive loss increaseddecreased by $1.7$1.3 million during the first threesix months of 2012 to a loss of $10.5$7.6 million at March 31,June 30, 2012. The increaseThis decrease of $1.7$1.3 million in the accumulated other comprehensive loss was related to an unrealized net holding lossgain in the investment portfolio of $2.2 million,$604,000, net of taxes, as a result of the mark-to-market adjustment at March 31,June 30, 2012, which was partially offset by (1)along with a $113,000$259,000 increase in the unrealized net holding gain on the cash flow hedge and (2) a $412,000 (net of tax) improvement to the funded status of the pension plan as a result in the sale of the Vision business.

Increases or decreases in the investment securities portfolio, short-term borrowings and long-term debt are greatly dependent upon the growth in loans and deposits. The primary objective of management is to grow loan and deposit totals. To the extent that management is unable to grow loan totals at a desired growth rate, additional investment securities may be acquired. Likewise, both short-term borrowings and long-term debt are utilized to fund the growth in earning assets if the growth in deposits and cash flow from operations are not sufficient to do so.

Effective liquidity management ensures that the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, as well as the operating cash needs of the Corporation, are met. Funds are available from a number of sources, including the securities portfolio, the core deposit base, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, and the capability to securitize or package loans for sale. The Corporation’s loan to asset ratio was 63.81%65.42% at March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to 61.92% at December 31, 2011 and 64.88%64.3% at March 31,June 30, 2011. Cash and cash equivalents were $161.1$208.1 million at March 31,June 30, 2012, compared to $157.5 million at December 31, 2011 and $134.2$217.1 million at March 31,June 30, 2011. Management believes that the present funding sources provide more than adequate liquidity for the Corporation to meet its cash flow needs.

On a monthly basis, Park’s Treasury Department forecasts the financial statements for the next twelve months. The projected liquidity position for the Corporation is reviewed each month to ensure that adequate liquidity is maintained. Management targets that the Corporation would have a minimum of $800$900 million of funds available to handle liquidity needs on a daily basis. This $800$900 million liquidity “war chest” consists of currently available additional borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Loan Bank, federal funds sold and unpledged U.S. Government Agency securities.

Capital Resources

Total stockholders’ equity at March 31,June 30, 2012 was $756$661 million, or 11.2%9.9% of total assets, compared to $742 million, or 10.6% of total assets, at December 31, 2011 and $730$741 million, or 10.0%10.1% of total assets, at March 31,June 30, 2011.

Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital ratios for banks, thrifts and bank holding companies. The net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities is generally not included in computing regulatory capital. The minimum leverage capital ratio (defined as stockholders’ equity less intangible assets divided by tangible assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 5%. Park’s leverage ratio was 10.35%9.15% at March 31,June 30, 2012 and 9.81% at

Park’s Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 15.35%13.17% at March 31,June 30, 2012 and 14.15% at December 31, 2011. The minimum total risk-based capital ratio (defined as leverage capital plus supplemental capital divided by risk-adjusted assets) is 8% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 10%. Park’s total risk-based capital ratio was 17.92%16.38% at March 31,June 30, 2012 and 16.65% at December 31, 2011.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

PNB is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include loan commitments and standby letters of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

The exposure to credit loss (for PNB) in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Park and PNB use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as they do for on-balance sheet instruments. Since many of the loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to customers.

The total amounts of off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk were as follows:

(in thousands) March 31, 2012  December 31, 2011 
Loan commitments $773,014  $809,140 
Standby letters of credit $24,175  $18,772

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Management reviews interest rate sensitivity on a bi-monthly basis by modeling the consolidated financial statements under various interest rate scenarios. The primary reason for these efforts is to guard Park from adverse impacts of unforeseen changes in interest rates. Management continues to believe that further changes in interest rates will have a small impact on net income, consistent with the disclosure on pages 44 and 45 of Park’s 2011 Annual Report.

On page 45 (Table 30) of Park’s 2011 Annual Report, management reported that Park’s twelve month cumulative rate sensitivity gap was a positive (assets exceeding liabilities) $1,376 million or 21.46% of interest earning assets at December 31, 2011. At March 31,June 30, 2012, Park’s twelve month cumulative rate sensitivity gap was a positive (assets exceeding liabilities) $592 $697

66


million or 9.5%11.4% of interest earning assets.

Management supplements the interest rate sensitivity gap analysis with periodic simulations of balance sheet sensitivity under various interest rate and what-if scenarios to better forecast and manage the net interest margin. Management uses a 50 basis point change in market interest rates per quarter for a total of 200 basis points per year in evaluating the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and net income over a twelve month horizon.

On page 45 of Park’s 2011 Annual Report, management reported that at December 31, 2011, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would increase by 2.14% using a rising interest rate scenario and decrease by 3.52% using a declining interest rate scenario over the next year. At March 31,June 30, 2012, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would increase by 2.0%1.2% using a rising interest rate scenario and would decrease by 3.4%4.9% in a declining interest rate scenario. At March 31,June 30, 2012, management continues to believe that gradual changes in interest rates (50 basis points per quarter for a total of 200 basis points per year) will have a small impact on net income.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

With the participation of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (the principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (the principal financial officer) of Park, Park’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of Park’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, Park’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and Park’s Chief Financial Officer have concluded that:

·information required to be disclosed by Park in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports that Park files or submits under the Exchange Act would be accumulated and communicated to Park’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure;

·information required to be disclosed by Park in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the other reports that Park files or submits under the Exchange Act would be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and

·Park’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Park’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a – 15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during Park’s fiscal quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2012, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Park’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.       Legal Proceedings

There are no pending legal proceedings to which Park or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their property is subject, except for routine legal proceedings to which Park’s subsidiary bank, PNB, is a party to incidental to its banking business. There are also certainbusiness, as well as routine legal proceedings at SE LLCSEPH which are routine legal proceedings to which Vision BankSEPH (and SE LLCSEPH as the successor to Vision Bank) is a party to incidental to its business. Park considers none of those proceedings to be material.


Item 1A.     Risk Factors

There are certain risks and uncertainties in our business that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. In “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” of Part I of Park’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”), we included a detailed discussion of our risk factors. TheseThe following information updates one of our risk factors and should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in the 2011 Form 10-K. All of these risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating our business and in connection with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Any of the risks described below or in the 2011 Form 10-K could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made. These are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.


Changes in economic and political conditions could adversely affect our earnings, as our borrowers’ ability to repay loans and the value of the collateral securing our loans may decline.
Our success depends, to a certain extent, upon economic and political conditions, local and national, as well as governmental fiscal and monetary policies. Conditions such as inflation, recession, unemployment, changes in interest rates, fiscal and monetary policy and other factors beyond our control may adversely affect our asset quality, deposit levels and loan demand and, therefore, our earnings and our capital. Because we have a significant amount of real estate loans, additional decreases in real estate values could adversely affect the value of property used as collateral and our ability to sell the collateral upon foreclosure. Adverse changes in the economy may also have a negative effect on the ability of our borrowers to make timely repayments of their loans, which would have an adverse impact on our earnings and cash flows. The substantial majority of the loans made by our subsidiaries are to individuals and businesses in Ohio, although we continue to hold certain loans made, and real estate located, in Gulf Coast communities in Alabama and the Florida panhandle. Consequently, a significant decline in the economy in Ohio or in Gulf Coast communities in Alabama or the panhandle of Florida could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the fair value of collateral for certain collateral dependent credits in the Gulf Coast communities in Alabama and the Florida panhandle is dependent, in part, on cash flows expected from governmental agencies. The inability of the government agencies to make payments to our borrowers could hinder our ability to receive collection and result in future losses. Where applicable, management is continually monitoring the repayment capacity of the governmental agencies to ensure that the collateral is valued appropriately.

While substantially all of the operating assets and liabilities of Vision Bank were sold to Centennial Bank on February 16, 2012, Vision Bank retained non-performing loans, which had a book balance as of February 16, 2012 of approximately $88 million and performing loans which had a book balance of approximately $22 million as of February 16, 2012, both balances being net of any loan loss allowances that existed prior to the close of the transactions between Vision Bank and Centennial Bank. These retained loans were transferred by operation of law to SEPH by virtue of the merger of Vision Bank into SEPH. As a result, Park’s future earnings continue to be susceptible to further declining credit conditions in the markets in which the borrowers under these retained loans operate or declining credit conditions in the markets served by Park National Bank and its divisions.
