CONSUMERS NATIONAL BANK MINERVA
TO ACQUIRE FIRSTAR'S LISBON OFFICE
MINERVA, OHIO (September 2, 1999) - - Minerva based Consumers
National Bank disclosed today definitive plans to acquire Firstar
Bank's Lisbon office at 32 North Park Avenue. The location is a
full-service office with an ATM and includes a nearby, off-premise
drive-in facility at 7801 State Route 45. The announcement was
made by Mark S. Kelly, president and chief executive officer of
Consumers National Bank and Consumers Bancorp, Inc.
The acquisition is subject to the approval of the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and other regulatory approvals.
It is anticipated the acquisition will be finalized early in the
first quarter of 2000.
According to Kelly, this location will be the third new banking
office Consumers has announced in less than a year. In March, the
Bank opened an office in Alliance, Ohio; then in April, it
announced the construction of another full-service branch in
Louisville, Ohio. In addition, Consumers also operates Community
Finance, a wholly owned finance company subsidiary, in Salem,
Ohio; it was established in November 1998.
"We are looking forward to making a commitment to the community of
Lisbon and we welcome the customers and employees of Firstar to
Consumers National Bank." Kelly said. "As an independent
community bank, we are dedicated to providing customers with the
friendly, personal service they want and deserve. We like doing
business with customers in smaller communities because they
appreciate the full range of financial services and personal
attention we offer." Kelly concluded.
Consumers National Bank provides complete banking and investment
services to businesses and consumers through its core operations.
Consumers is a locally-owned, independent community bank with
offices in Minerva, Waynesburg, Carrollton, Hanoverton, Salem and
Alliance. Upon completion of the Firstar transaction, Consumers'
assets will exceed $150 million. Information about Consumers
National Bank is available on the Internet at
