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 shareholders’ equity and condensed statements of cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. 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, 2013 from Park’s 2013 Annual Report to Shareholders (“2013 Annual Report”).
 
Park’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 2013 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 required additional disclosure in these consolidated condensed financial statements.
 
Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2013-11- Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists: The ASU requires that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. However, if a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2014 did not have an impact on Park's consolidated statements.

ASU 2014-01- Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force): In January 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-01, Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The ASU permits reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense. Additionally, a reporting entity should disclose information that enables users of its financial statement to understand the nature of its investments in qualified affordable housing projects, and the effect of the measurement of its investments in qualified affordable housing projects and the related tax credits on its financial position and results of operations. The new guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on Park's consolidated financial statements, but may impact the presentation of Park's investments in qualified affordable housing projects. Additionally, the adoption of this guidance will require additional disclosures.

ASU 2014-04 - Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force): In January 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-04, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The ASU clarifies when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan. Specifically, the new ASU requires a creditor to reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to real estate property upon obtaining legal title to the real estate collateral, or the borrower voluntarily conveying all interest in the real estate property to the lender to satisfy the loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. Additional disclosures are required detailing the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and the recorded investment in consumer mortgages collateralized by real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure. The new guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on Park's consolidated financial statements, but will result in additional disclosures.

ASU 2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-04, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The ASU creates a new topic, Topic 606, to provide guidance on revenue recognition for entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additional disclosures are required to provide quantitative and qualitative information regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on Park's consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2014-11 - Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures: In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU change the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and linked repurchase financings to secured borrowing accounting, which is consistent with the accounting for other repurchase agreements. The amendments also require two new disclosures. The first disclosure requires an entity to disclose information on transfers accounted for as sales in transactions that are economically similar to repurchase agreements. The second disclosure provides increased transparency about the types of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The accounting changes are effective for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The disclosure for certain transactions accounted for as a sale is required to be presented for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, with all other disclosure requirements required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on Park's consolidated financial statements, but will result in additional disclosures.

Management’s general practice is to proactively charge down loans individually evaluated for impairment to the fair value of the underlying collateral. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were $53.9 million and $58.1 million, respectively, of partial charge-offs on loans individually evaluated for impairment with no related allowance recorded and $4.5 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of partial charge-offs on loans individually evaluated for impairment that also had a specific reserve allocated.
 
The allowance for loan losses included specific reserves related to loans individually evaluated for impairment at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 of $6.3 million and $10.5 million, respectively. These loans with specific reserves had a recorded investment of $18.3 million and $21.4 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Credit Quality Indicators
 
Management utilizes past due information as a credit quality indicator across the loan portfolio. Past due information as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 is included in the tables above. 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 on a scale from 1 to 8. Credit grades are continuously monitored by the responsible loan officer and adjustments are made when appropriate. 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 4.5 (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 the value 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 Park 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. Certain 6-rated loans and all 7-rated loans are included within the impaired category. A loan is deemed impaired when management determines the borrower's ability to perform in accordance with the contractual loan agreement is in doubt. Any commercial loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged off.

Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs)
 
Management classifies loans as TDRs when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and Park has granted a concession to the borrower as part of a modification or in the loan renewal process. 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 the borrower's debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed in accordance with 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 periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 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.
 
Management reviews renewals/modifications of loans previously identified as TDRs to consider if it is appropriate to remove the TDR classification. If the borrower is no longer experiencing financial difficulty and the renewal/modification does not contain a concessionary interest rate or other concessionary terms, management considers the potential removal of the TDR classification. If deemed appropriate, the TDR classification is removed as the borrower has complied with the terms of the loan at the date of the renewal/modification and there was a reasonable expectation that the borrower would continue to comply with the terms of the loan subsequent to the date of the renewal/modification. The majority of these TDRs were originally considered restructurings in a prior year as a result of a renewal/modification with an interest rate that was not commensurate with the risk of the underlying loan at the time of the renewal/modification. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, Park removed the TDR classification on $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of loans that met the requirements discussed above. During both the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, Park removed the TDR classification on $2.9 million of loans that met the requirements discussed above.

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were $62.1 million and $76.3 million, respectively, of TDRs included in the nonaccrual loan totals. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $21.8 million and $50.6 million of these nonaccrual TDRs were performing in accordance with the terms of the restructured note. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were $17.6 million and $18.8 million, respectively, of TDRs included in accruing loan totals. 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 June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, Park had commitments to lend $2.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of additional funds to borrowers whose outstanding loan terms had been modified in a TDR.
 
The specific reserve related to TDRs at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $3.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively. Modifications made in 2013 and 2014 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.

Table of Contents

Additional specific reserves of $261,000 and $279,000 were recorded during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as a result of TDRs identified in 2014. Additional specific reserves of $33,000 and $271,000 were recorded during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as a result of TDRs identified in 2013.
 
The terms of certain other loans were modified during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 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 June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 of $1.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The renewal/modification of these loans: (1) involved a renewal/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 June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 of $12.5 million and $12.0 million, respectively. Many of these loans were to borrowers who were not experiencing financial difficulties but who were looking to reduce their cost of funds.

The following tables detail the number of contracts modified as TDRs during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, as well as the recorded investment of these contracts at June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. The recorded investment pre- and post-modification is generally the same due to the fact that Park does not typically provide for forgiveness of principal.

Of those loans which were modified and determined to be a TDR during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, $1.7 million were on nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2013. Of those loans which were modified and determined to be a TDR during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, $3.3 million were on nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2012.
 
The following tables present the recorded investment in financing receivables which were modified as TDRs within the previous 12 months and for which there was a payment default during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. For these tables, a loan is considered to be in default when it becomes 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms. The additional allowance for loan loss resulting from the defaults on TDR loans was immaterial.

Of the $3.5 million in modified TDRs which defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2014, $297,000 were accruing loans and $3.2 million were nonaccrual loans. Of the $7.6 million in modified TDRs which defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2013, $1.1 million were accruing loans and $6.5 million were nonaccrual loans.
 
Note 5 – 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 2013 Annual Report.

With the inclusion of 2013 net charge-off information in the fourth quarter of 2013, management concluded that it was no longer appropriate to calculate the historical average with an even allocation across the five-year period. Rather than apply a 20% allocation to each year in the calculation of the historical annualized loss factor, management determined that it was appropriate to more heavily weight those years with higher losses in the historical loss calculation, given the continued uncertainty in the current economic environment. Specifically, rather than applying equal percentages to each year in the historical loss calculation, management applied more weight to the 2009-2011 periods compared to the 2012 and 2013 periods. Management will update the historical loss factors annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently as deemed appropriate.

Table of Contents

Loans collectively evaluated for impairment in the following tables include all performing loans at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 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 June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 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 2013 Annual Report).

Management does not believe any of the unrealized losses at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013 represented other-than-temporary impairment. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized within net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

Park’s U.S. Government sponsored entities' asset-backed securities consist primarily of 15-year residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.

Note 11 - Share-Based Compensation

The Park National Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2013 Incentive Plan") was adopted by the Board of Directors of Park on January 28, 2013 and was approved by Park's shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 22, 2013. The 2013 Incentive Plan replaces Park's 2005 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "2005 Plan") and Park's Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors of Park National Corporation and Subsidiaries (the "Directors' Stock Plan") which were terminated immediately following the approval of the 2013 Incentive Plan. The 2013 Incentive Plan makes equity-based awards and cash-based awards available for grant to participants in the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted common shares, restricted stock unit awards that may be settled in common shares, cash or a combination of the two, unrestricted common shares and cash-based awards. Under the 2013 Incentive Plan, 600,000 common shares are authorized to be granted. The common shares to be issued and delivered under the 2013 Incentive Plan may consist of either common shares currently held or common shares subsequently acquired by Park as treasury shares, including common shares purchased in the open market or in private transactions. No awards may be made under the 2013 Incentive Plan after April 22, 2023. At June 30, 2014, 567,475 common shares were available for future grants under the 2013 Incentive Plan.

On January 24, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Park granted awards of 21,975 performance-based restricted stock units (“PBRSUs”) to certain employees of Park, which grants were effective on January 24, 2014. The number of PBRSUs earned or settled will depend on certain performance conditions and are also subject to service-based vesting.

Share-based compensation expense of $117,000 was recognized for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 and $220,000 was recognized for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. No share-based compensation expense was recognized in 2013 as there were no outstanding awards held by employees.

Note 12 – Pension Plan
 
Park has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees. The plan provides benefits based on an employee’s years of service and compensation.
 
Park’s funding policy is to contribute annually an amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes using a different actuarial cost method and different assumptions from those used for financial reporting purposes. There were no pension plan contributions for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 and $12.6 million of contributions for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.

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 U.S. 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 14 – 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.
 
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 in accordance with Park's valuation requirements per its commercial and real estate loan policies.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2014 or 2013. 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 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.
 
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. 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 June 30, 2014 and 2013, 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 generally 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. 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 OREO 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. 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. 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.
 
The following tables present assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral dependent impaired loans are carried at fair value if they have been charged down to fair value or if a specific valuation allowance has been established. A new cost basis is established at the time a property is initially recorded in OREO. OREO properties are carried at fair value if a devaluation has been taken to the property's value subsequent to the initial measurement.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating its fair value disclosures for assets and liabilities not discussed above:
 
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.
 
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, based upon interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value do not necessarily represent an exit price.

Table of Contents

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-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.
 
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.

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.  The forward-looking statements are based on management’s 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: Park's ability to execute its business plan successfully and within the expected timeframe; general economic and financial market conditions, and the uneven spread of positive impacts of the recovery on the economy, specifically in the real estate markets and the credit markets, either nationally or in the states in which Park and its subsidiaries do business, may be worse or slower than expected which could adversely impact the demand for loan, deposit and other financial services as well as 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 to regulations governing bank capital and liquidity standards as well as by changes in our assets and liabilities; competitive factors among financial services organizations could 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 Budget Control Act of 2011, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms; 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 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 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, 2013. Park does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the results 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 was 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 2013 Annual Report to Shareholders the (the "2013 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 (U.S. 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 has subjective components requiring material estimates, including expected default probabilities, the expected 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 “Credit Metrics and Provision for (Recovery of) Loan Losses” section within this MD&A for additional discussion.

Table of Contents

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.
 
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. The large majority of Park’s assets whose fair value is determined using Level 2 inputs consists 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. Please see Note 14 - Fair Value of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on fair value.
 
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 2014 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. Please see Note 3 – Goodwill of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on goodwill.

The determination of pension plan obligations and related expenses requires the use of assumptions to estimate the amount of benefits that employees earn while working, as well as the present value of those benefits. Annual pension expense is principally based on four components: (1) the value of benefits earned by employees for working during the year (service cost), (2) the increase in the liability due to the passage of time (interest cost), and (3) other gains and losses, reduced by (4) the expected return on plan assets for our pension plan.

Significant assumptions used to measure our annual pension expense include:

the interest rate used to determine the present value of liabilities (discount rate);
certain employee-related factors, such as turnover, retirement age and mortality;
the expected return on assets in our funded plan; and
for pension expense, the rate of salary increases where benefits are based on earnings

Our assumptions reflect our historical experience and management’s best judgment regarding future expectations. Due to the significant management judgment involved, our assumptions could have a material impact on the measurement of our pension plan expense and obligation.

The “Park Parent Company” above excludes the results for SEPH, an entity which is winding down commensurate with the disposition of its problem assets. Management considers the “Ongoing operations” results to be reflective of the business of Park and its subsidiaries on a going forward basis. The discussion below provides some additional information regarding the segments that make up the “Ongoing operations”, followed by additional information on SEPH.

Vision Bank (“Vision”) merged with and into SEPH, a non-bank subsidiary of Park, following the sale of the Vision business to Centennial Bank (“Centennial”) on February 16, 2012. The results of Vision through February 16, 2012 are included in the SEPH results presented in the table above. The sale of the Vision business in the first quarter of 2012 resulted in a pre-tax gain of $22.2 million ($14.4 million after-tax), which is included in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 SEPH results presented in the table above. SEPH holds the remaining assets and liabilities retained by Vision subsequent to the sale. SEPH assets consist primarily of performing and nonperforming loans and OREO. This segment represents a run-off portfolio of the legacy Vision assets.

SEPH financial results for the first half of 2014 included net recoveries of $5.6 million. The net recoveries during the first half of 2014 consisted of charge-offs of $0.8 million, offset by recoveries of $6.4 million. Other income for the first six months ended June 30, 2014 at SEPH of $1.7 million was related to net gains on the sale of OREO of $1.7 million. Other expense increased by $0.8 million in the second quarter 2014 compared to the first quarter 2014. This increase was due to higher legal expenses in the second quarter related to loan collection activity.

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 value and no allowance for loan loss is carried at SEPH. The loans included in both the performing and nonperforming portfolios have been charged down to their fair value. The table below provides additional information for SEPH regarding charge-offs as a percentage of unpaid principal balance, as of June 30, 2014.

A primary financial goal for Park is to increase the amount of quality loans on its balance sheet. Management emphasizes the importance of growing quality loans on an ongoing basis to its retail and commercial lenders. The average balance of loans for the first six months of 2014 was $4,643 million, compared to $4,515 million for all of 2013, an increase of $128 million or 2.8%.
 
Management actively manages the investment portfolio. The average balance of investment securities may increase as a result of attractive investment opportunities. Likewise, the average balance of investment securities may decrease if management sells investment securities or chooses not to reinvest the cash flow from maturities or investment repayments.

Credit Metrics and Provision for (Recovery of) Loan Losses
 
Park recorded a recovery of loan losses in the amount of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to a provision for loan losses in the amount of $673,000 for the same period in 2013. Net loan charge-offs for Park were $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared to $877,000 for the second quarter of 2013. Park's annualized ratio of net loan charge-offs to average loans was 0.09% for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 0.08% for the same period in 2013.

Park recorded a recovery of loan losses in the amount of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to a provision for loan losses in the amount of $1.0 million for the same period in 2013. Net loan recoveries for Park were $1.9 million for the first six months of 2014, compared to net loan charge-offs of $1.4 million for the first half of 2013. Park's annualized ratio of net loan charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans was (0.08)% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 0.06% for the same period in 2013.

The provision for loan losses for PNB and Guardian, Park’s two Ohio-based subsidiaries, was an aggregate of $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $5.7 million for the same period in 2013. Net loan charge-offs for PNB and Guardian totaled $3.7 million for the first six months of 2014, compared to $6.1 million for the same period in 2013. The annualized ratio of net loan charge-offs to average loans for PNB and Guardian was 0.16% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 0.28% for the same period in 2013.
SEPH recorded a recovery of loan losses of $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $4.7 million for the same period in 2013.
 
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 value and no allowance for loan loss is carried at SEPH.

Generally, management obtains updated valuations for all nonperforming loans, including those held at SEPH, annually. As new valuation information is received, management performs an evaluation and applies a discount for anticipated disposition costs to determine the net realizable value of the collateral, which is compared against the outstanding principal balance to determine if additional write-downs are necessary.

As the table above shows, specific reserves were $6.3 million at June 30, 2014, a decrease of $4.2 million, compared to $10.5
million at December 31, 2013. The decline in specific reserves was largely due to the charge-off of approximately $4.7 million related to one loan relationship, which previously had a specific reserve of $4.8 million that was established in the third quarter of 2013. General reserves for Park’s ongoing operations increased to $51.6 million at June 30, 2014, an increase of $2.6 million, compared to $49.0 million at December 31, 2013. General reserves as a percentage of performing loans has increased slightly to 1.11% at June 30, 2014, compared to 1.09% at December 31, 2013. The increase in general reserves was primarily due to additional reserves established in the consumer loan portfolio, as this portfolio of loans experienced significant growth through the first six months of 2014.

Nonperforming Assets: Nonperforming assets include: 1) loans whose interest is accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; 2) TDRs on accrual status; 3) loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments but whose interest continues to accrue; and (4) OREO which results from taking possession of property that served as collateral for a defaulted loan.

Park management reviews all 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 June 30, 2014, management deemed it appropriate to have $17.5 million of TDRs on accrual status, while the remaining $62.1 million of TDRs were on nonaccrual status. Management reviews all accruing TDRs quarterly to ensure payments continue to be made in accordance with the modified terms.
 
Management reviews renewals/modifications of loans previously identified as TDRs to consider if it is appropriate to remove the TDR classification. If the borrower is no longer experiencing financial difficulty and the renewal/modification does not contain a concessionary interest rate or other concessionary terms, management considers the potential removal of the TDR classification. If deemed appropriate, the TDR classification is removed as the borrower has complied with the terms of the loan at the date of the renewal/modification and there was a reasonable expectation that the borrower would continue to comply with the terms of the loan subsequent to the date of the renewal/modification. The majority of these TDRs were originally considered restructurings in a prior year as a result of a modification with an interest rate that was not commensurate with the risk of the underlying loan. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, Park removed the TDR classification on $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of loans that met the requirements discussed above. During both the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, Park removed the TDR classification on $2.9 million of loans that met the requirements discussed above.

Nonperforming assets for PNB and GFSC and for SEPH as of June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 were as reported in the following two tables:

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 4.5 (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, 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 charges these loans down to their fair value by taking a partial charge-off or recording a specific reserve. Certain 6-rated loans and all 7-rated loans are included within the impaired category. A loan is deemed impaired when management determines that borrower's ability to perform in accordance with the contractual loan agreement is in doubt. Any commercial loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged-off.
 
As of June 30, 2014, Park had taken partial charge-offs of approximately $58.4 million related to the $96.0 million of commercial loans considered to be impaired, compared to charge-offs of approximately $63.3 million related to the $112.3 million of impaired commercial loans at December 31, 2013. The table below provides additional information related to the Park impaired commercial loans at June 30, 2014, including those impaired commercial loans at PNB and those impaired Vision commercial loans retained at SEPH.

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 60-month loss experience for the period ended December 31, 2013, defined as charge-offs plus changes in specific reserves, within the commercial loan portfolio was 0.66% of the principal balance of these loans. This annualized 60-month loss experience included only the performance of the PNB loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses related to performing commercial loans was $31.7 million or 1.35% of the outstanding principal balance of other accruing commercial loans at June 30, 2014.

The overall reserve of 1.35% for other accruing commercial loans breaks down as follows: pass-rated commercial loans are reserved at 1.30%; special mention commercial loans are reserved at 5.98%; and substandard commercial loans are reserved at 7.61%. At June 30, 2014, the coverage period within the commercial portfolio was approximately 2.43 years. The reserve levels for pass-rated, special mention and substandard commercial loans in excess of the 60-month loss experience of 0.66% 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 nonaccrual. 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 five-year period, considering how each individual credit was rated at the beginning of the five-year period.

Table of Contents

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 60 months, through December 31, 2013. 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 June 30, 2014, the coverage period within the consumer portfolio was approximately 1.80 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 allowance for loan losses 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 allowance for loan losses 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.

Income from fiduciary activities, which represents revenue earned from Park’s trust activities, increased by $497,000, or 11.5%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $4.3 million for the same period in 2013. Fiduciary fee income increased by $962,000, or 11.4%, to $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $8.4 million for the same period in 2013. Fiduciary fees are generally charged based on the market value of customer accounts. The average market value for assets under management for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $4,173 million, an increase of approximately 12.1% compared to the average for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of $3,723 million.
  
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 decreased by $825,000, or 24.6%, to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2013. Other service income decreased $2.9 million, or 39.4%, to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2013. The volume of originations of mortgage loans for sale into the secondary market is the primary driver of changes in this fee income category. As long-term interest rates increased in the second half of 2013 and beginning of 2014, the volume of originations (purchases or refinances) of mortgage loans has declined significantly. While other service income has declined for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, it increased by $609,000 in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2014.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, OREO valuation adjustments were a net expense of $675,000, compared to $600,000 for the same period in 2013. OREO valuation adjustments were a net expense of $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $199,000 for the same period in 2013.
For the three months ended June 30, 2014, gain on the sale of OREO, net increased by $970,000 to $2.6 million, compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, gain on the sale of OREO, net increased by $1.5 million to $3.3 million, compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 2013. Through the first six months of 2014, total OREO sales were $19.2 million, related to properties that had a book value of $15.9 million. For the first six months of 2013, total OREO sales were $14.2 million, related to properties that had a book value of $12.4 million.

Salaries and employee benefits increased by $1.5 million, or 5.9%, to $26.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $24.7 million for the same period in 2013. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $1.9 million, or 3.8%, to $51.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $49.3 million for the same period in 2013. The increase through the first six months of 2014 was largely related to increased medical insurance expense in Park's Ohio-based operations.

Professional fees and services increased by $2.3 million, or 39.0%, to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $5.9 million for the same period in 2013. Professional fees and services increased by $2.7 million, or 23.1%, to $14.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $11.7 million for the same period in 2013. The increase through the first six months of 2014 is primarily related to ongoing legal and professional fees related to legacy Vision Bank credits, specifically those participated at PNB. Professional fees and services for the Ohio-based operations increased by $1.1 million and $2.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively. A portion of this increase, $713,000 and $983,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, related to PNB participations in SEPH loans.
OREO expense decreased by $661,000, or 68.2%, to $308,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $969,000 for the same period in 2013. OREO expense increased by $104,000, or 7.0%, to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease during the second quarter of 2014 is primarily related to reduction in OREO expenses as a result of a decrease in OREO assets.
Miscellaneous expense decreased by $1.6 million, or 40.5%, to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2013. Miscellaneous expense decreased $2.5 million, or 31.3%, to $5.6 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $8.1 million for the same period in 2013. The balance in 2013 included $1.9 million related to the establishment of reserves for litigation.

The table below provides information related to total other expense within each of Park's segments, which include PNB, GFSC, Vision, SEPH and "All Other" (which primarily consists of Park as the "Parent Company") for each quarter in 2013 and 2014 to date.

Income Tax
 
Federal income tax expense was $7.5 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared to $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2013. The effective federal income tax rate for the second quarter of 2014 was 25.5%, compared to 25.2% for the same period in 2013. Federal income tax expense was $13.5 million for the first six months of 2014, compared to $13.9 million for the same period of 2013. The effective federal income tax rate for the first six months of 2014 was 24.6%, compared to 25.4% for the same period in 2013. The difference between the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% and Park’s effective tax rate is due to 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 the 2014 year 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 Park equity. The franchise tax expense is included in “state taxes” as part of other expense on Park’s Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Changes in Financial Condition and Liquidity
 
Total assets increased by $151 million, or 2.3%, to $6,789 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $6,638 million at December 31, 2013.
 
Total investment securities decreased by $6 million, or 0.4%, to $1,418 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $1,424 million at December 31, 2013. Money market instruments, included in cash and cash equivalents, increased by $38 million to $56 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $18 million at December 31, 2013. Loan balances increased by $114 million to $4,735 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $4,621 million at December 31, 2013.
 
Total liabilities increased by $115 million, or 1.9%, during the first six months of 2014 to $6,102 million at June 30, 2014, from $5,987 million at December 31, 2013.
 
Total deposits increased by $137 million, or 2.9%, to $4,927 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $4,790 million at December 31, 2013. The increase in deposits in the first six months of 2014 was largely related to an increase in interest bearing transaction accounts and savings accounts.
 
Short-term borrowings increased by $9 million, or 3.7%, to $251 million at June 30, 2014, from $242 million at December 31, 2013. Long-term borrowings, including subordinated debentures and notes, decreased by $23 million or 2.6% to $868 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $891 million at December 31, 2013.
 
Total shareholders’ equity increased by $35.3 million, or 5.4%, to $687.0 million at June 30, 2014, from $651.7 million at December 31, 2013. Retained earnings increased by $12.4 million during the period as a result of net income of $41.4 million, offset by common share dividends of $29.0 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased by $24.0 million to a loss of $11.4 million at June 30, 2014, compared to a loss of $35.4 million at December 31, 2013. This improvement in the accumulated other comprehensive loss was related to a $24.0 million unrealized net holding gain (net of taxes) in the investment portfolio as a result of the mark-to-market for the first six months of 2014.
 
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 69.75% at June 30, 2014, compared to 69.60% at December 31, 2013 and 67.93% at June 30, 2013. Cash and cash equivalents were $197.0 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $147.0 million at December 31, 2013 and $353.9 million at June 30, 2013. Management believes that the present funding sources provide more than adequate liquidity for the Corporation to meet its cash flow needs.
  
Capital Resources
 
Total shareholders’ equity and common equity at June 30, 2014 was $687.0 million, or 10.1% of total assets, compared to $651.7 million, or 9.8% of total assets, at December 31, 2013 and $639.2 million, or 9.6% of total assets, at June 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

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 shareholders’ equity less intangible assets divided by tangible assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio (PNB only) is greater than or equal to 5%. Park’s leverage ratio was 9.56% at June 30, 2014 and 9.48% at December 31, 2013. The minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio (defined as leverage capital divided by risk-adjusted assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio (PNB only) is greater than or equal to 6%. Park’s Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 13.32% at June 30, 2014 and 13.27% at December 31, 2013. 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 (PNB only) is greater than or equal to 10%. Park’s total risk-based capital ratio was 15.89% at June 30, 2014 and 15.91% at December 31, 2013.
 
PNB met each of the well capitalized ratio guidelines at June 30, 2014. The following table indicates the capital ratios for PNB and Park at June 30, 2014.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
 
In the ordinary course of operations, Park enters into certain contractual obligations. Such obligations include the funding of operations through debt issuances as well as leases for premises. See page 41 of Park’s 2013 Annual Report (Table 31) for disclosure concerning contractual obligations and commitments at December 31, 2013. There were no significant changes in contractual obligations and commitments during the first six months of 2014.
 
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. PNB uses 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:

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 40 and 41 of Park’s 2013 Annual Report.
 
On page 40 (Table 30) of Park’s 2013 Annual Report, management reported that Park’s twelve-month cumulative rate sensitivity gap was a positive (assets exceeding liabilities) $367 million or 6.05% of interest earning assets at December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014, Park’s twelve-month cumulative rate sensitivity gap was a positive (assets exceeding liabilities) $217 million or 3.49% 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 41 of Park’s 2013 Annual Report, management reported that at December 31, 2013, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would decrease by 1.4% using a rising interest rate scenario and decrease by 10.3% using a declining interest rate scenario over the next year. At June 30, 2014, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would decrease by 2.78% using a rising interest rate scenario and would decrease by 8.54% in a declining interest rate scenario. The decline in net income in both the increasing and the decreasing interest rate scenarios is due to the balance of loans that are currently indexed to an interest rate “floor”.  Therefore, in a rising interest rate scenario, a portion of the loan portfolio will not experience an increase in interest income until interest rates on those loans move through the “floor” established in individual loan agreements, while deposit assumptions reflect increasing rates paid on deposits in such a scenario. At June 30, 2014, 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 Chief Executive Officer and President (the principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer (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 Chief Executive Officer and President and Park’s Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer 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 June 30, 2014, 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 which Park’s subsidiary bank, PNB, is a party to incidental to its banking business, as well as routine legal proceedings at SEPH which SEPH (and SEPH 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, 2013 (the “2013 Form 10-K”), we included a detailed discussion of our risk factors. 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 in the 2013 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.
