Park National Corporation reports fourth quarter and full year 2014
financial results and declares dividend
Net income rises and past Chairman William T. McConnell announces retirement
NEWARK, Ohio − Park National Corporation (Park) (NYSE MKT: PRK) today announced financial results for the three months (fourth quarter) and year ended December 31, 2014. Park’s steady loan growth helped generate increased earnings for both the quarter and the year. The board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.94 per common share, payable on March 10, 2015 to common shareholders of record as of February 20, 2015. The board also acknowledged the upcoming retirement of its past Chairman William T. McConnell.
Financial performance highlights
Park’s net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $24.3 million, compared to $17.5 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of $6.8 million or 38.9 percent. Net income per diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $1.58, compared to $1.13 in the same period of 2013.
Park’s net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $84.1 million, compared to $77.2 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of $6.9 million or 8.9 percent. Net income per diluted common share was $5.46 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $5.01 for the same period of 2013.
“Individuals and business owners continue to tell us our local lenders consistently deliver professional, reliable service and a variety of loan options,” said Park President and CEO David L. Trautman. “I applaud our associates for their unwavering focus on serving our customers and inviting more to choose our bank.”
Park’s community-banking subsidiary, The Park National Bank, reported net income of $83.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to net income of $75.6 million for the same period of 2013. The Park National Bank had total assets of $6.9 billion at December 31, 2014 and $6.5 billion at December 31, 2013. This performance generated a return on average assets of 1.22 percent and 1.15 percent for the bank for the twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
The Park National Bank loan portfolio expanded during the fourth quarter and full year 2014. Loans outstanding at December 31, 2014 were $4.78 billion, compared to $4.74 billion at September 30, 2014, an increase of $38 million or an annualized 3.14 percent. Loan growth for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $222 million, an increase of 4.88 percent, compared to the $4.56 billion outstanding at December 31, 2013. The $222 million increase in loans during 2014 was largely due to new loans added in the consumer loan portfolio, which increased by approximately $167 million.
Board member changes
Park Director William T. McConnell notified the board that he will retire from board service, effective April 27, 2015 at the end of his current term. A Park National Corporation board member since 1986, he is a past chairman of the board and most recently led the board’s executive committee.

There were no amounts reported as held for sale as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as the only loans held for sale are the mortgage loans held for sale in each period, which were deemed immaterial and are thus not broken out separately.
