Note 2 - Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements and Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

The following is a summary of new accounting pronouncements impacting Park's consolidated financial statements:

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 121 - In March 2022, the SEC issued SAB No. 121. This SAB adds interpretive guidance for entities to consider when they have obligations to safeguard crypto-assets held for their platform users. Specifically, this SAB provides interpretive guidance on the accounting and disclosure of obligations to safeguard crypto-assets held for platform users. This guidance was applicable no later than the financial statement covering the first interim or annual period ending after June 15, 2022. Management reviewed its business activities as of the date of adoption, June 30, 2022, and determined that SAB 121 is not materially impactful to the financial statements. Management has continued to monitor on a quarterly basis and has determined that SAB 121 is not materially impactful to the financial statements as of September 30, 2022.

Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

Nonaccrual commercial loans are evaluated on an individual basis and are excluded from the collective evaluation. Management’s general practice is to proactively charge down loans individually evaluated to the fair value of the underlying collateral. Nonaccrual consumer loans are collectively evaluated based on similar risk characteristics.

The following tables provide the amortized cost basis of collateral-dependent loans by class of loan, as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021:2022:

Credit Quality Indicators
Management utilizes past due information as a credit quality indicator across the loan portfolio. Past due information at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022 is included in the previous tables. The past due information is the primary credit quality indicator within the following classes of loans: (1) overdrafts in the commercial, financial and agricultural portfolio segment; (2) retail loans in the construction real estate portfolio segment; (3) mortgage loans, HELOC and installment loans in the residential real estate portfolio segment; and (4) consumer loans, GFSC loans, and check loans in the consumer portfolio segment. 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 that are pass-rated (graded a 1 through a 4) 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 PD is applied 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 Park’s credit position at some future date. Commercial loans graded a 6 (substandard), also considered watch list credits, are considered to represent higher credit risk and, as a result, a higher PD is applied 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 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 placed on nonaccrual status and included within the individually evaluated category. A commercial loan is deemed nonaccrual, and is individually evaluated, 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.

Based on the then most recent analysis performed, the risk category of commercial loans by class of loans as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022 were as follows:

Upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2021, $52,000 of the credit discount on PCD loans was reclassified to the allowance for credit losses. PCD loans are individually evaluated on a quarterly basis to determine if a specific reserve is necessary. At September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, there was no allowance for credit losses on PCD loans. The carrying amount of loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022 was $4.9$4.6 million and $7.1$4.7 million, respectively.

Troubled Debt RestructuringsModifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
Management typically classifiesidentifies loans as TDRsmodifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and Park has granted a concession toaltered the borrowercash flow of the the loan 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 isPark modifies loans to modify loansborrowers experiencing financial difficulty by extending theproviding principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay or by granting a temporary or permanent contractual interest rate below the market rate, not by forgiving debt. A court's discharge of a borrower's debt in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is considered a concession when the borrower does not reaffirm the discharged debt.adjustments.

In responsesome cases, Park provides multiple types of modifications on one loan. Typically, one type of modification, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to the COVID-19 pandemic, Park has worked with borrowers and provided modifications in the form of either interest only deferral orexperience financial difficulty, another modification, such as principal and interest deferral, in each case, for initial periods of up to 90 days. As necessary, Park made available a second 90-day interest only deferral or principal and interest deferral bringing the total potential deferral period to six months. Modifications were structured in a manner to best address each individual customer's then current situation. A majority of these modifications were excluded from the TDR classification under Section 4013 of the CARES Act or under applicable interagency guidance of the federal banking regulators. The modified loans were considered current and continued to accrue interest during the deferral period. Section 4013 of the CARES Act expired on December 31, 2021; therefore, modifications occurring after that date are subject to previous TDR classification guidance.

Certain other loans which were modified during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 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. TDRsforgiveness, may be classified as accruing ifgranted. For 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $14.0 million and $20.9 million, respectively, of TDRsloans included in the nonaccrualcombination columns below, multiple types of modifications have been made on the same loan totals. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $4.3 million and $10.5 million, respectively, of these nonaccrual TDRs were performing in accordance withwithin the termscurrent reporting period. The combination is at least two of the restructured notes. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, loans totaling $19.8 million and $28.3 million, respectively, were included in accruing TDR loan totals. Management will continue to review the restructured loans and may determine it is appropriate to move certain nonaccrual TDRs to accrual status in the future.

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Park had commitments to lend $2.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of additional funds to borrowers whose outstanding loan terms had been modified infollowing: a TDR.
At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of specific reserves related to TDRs. Modifications made in 2022 and 2021 were largely the result of renewals and extending the maturity date of the loans at terms consistent with the original notes. These modifications were deemed to be TDRs primarily due to Park’s conclusion that the respective borrowers would likely not have qualified for similar terms through another lender. Many of the modifications deemed to be TDRs were previously identified as loans individually evaluated for impairment. There were $87,000 of additional specific reserves recorded during both the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 as a result of TDRs identified in the respective periods. There were $156,000 and $174,000 of additional specific reserves recorded during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as a result of TDRs identified in the respective periods.

Quarterly, 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 did not contain a concessionary interest rate term extension, principal forgiveness, an other-than-insignificant payment delay and/or other concessionary terms and the terms of the renewal/modification are considered

to be market terms based on the current risk characteristics of the borrower, management considers the potential removal of the TDR classification. If deemed appropriate, the TDR classification is removed if 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 will 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. There were no TDR reclassifications removed during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. There were $1.0 million of TDR classifications removed during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022. The TDR classification was removed on $58,000 and $4.0 million of loans during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

The terms of certain other loans were modified during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 that did not meet the definition of a TDR. There were no substandard commercial loans modified during either of the three-month or the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, which did not meet the definition of a TDR. Excluding COVID-19 related modifications, there were no substandard commercial loans modified during either of the three-month or the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, which did not meet the definition of a TDR. Consumer loans modified during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, which did not meet the definition of a TDR, had a total amortized cost of $13.5 million and $29.5 million, respectively.Excluding COVID-19 related modifications, consumer loans modified during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, which did not meet the definition of a TDR, had a total amortized cost of $2.0 million and $4.8 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.adjustment.

Note 6 – Allowance for Credit Losses

The ACL is an estimate of the expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, which is measured using relevant information about past events, including historical credit loss experience on financial assets with similar risk characteristics, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the remaining cash flows over the contractual term of the financial assets. A provision for credit losses is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of these and other pertinent factors.

During the first quarter of 2021,2023, Park adopted ASU 2016-13, including the CECL methodology for estimating the ACL.2022-02. This standard was adopted prospectivelyusing a modified retrospective transition method on January 1, 2021,2023, resulting in a $6.1 million$383,000 increase to the ACL and a $3.9 million increase to the allowance for unfunded credit losses.ACL. A cumulative effect adjustment resulting in an $8.0 milliona $303,000 decrease to retained earnings and a $2.1 million increase to deferred tax assets was also recorded as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-13.2022-02.

Quantitative Considerations
The ACL is primarily calculated utilizing a DCF model. Key inputs and assumptions used in this model are discussed below:

Forecast model - For each portfolio segment, a LDA was performed in order to identify appropriate loss drivers and create a regression model for use in forecasting cash flows. The LDA analysis utilized Park's own FFIEC Call Report data for the commercial, financial and agricultural and residential real estate portfolio segments. Peer data was incorporated into the analysis for the commercial real estate, construction real estate, and consumer portfolio segments. Park plans to updateupdated the LDA annually; however, due to the impact of COVID-19, the LDA analysis was last updated in the fourth quarter of 2019.2022 with data through September 30, 2022. After considering the impact of the inclusion of periods impacted by COVID, as well as analysis of the ongoing applicability of the selected peer group, management decided it was appropriate to continue to utilize the LDA analysis from the fourth quarter of 2019 as the correlation of the LDA was higher.
Probability of default – PD is the probability that an asset will be in default within a given time frame. Park has defined default to be when a charge-off has occurred, a loan is placed on nonaccrual, or a loan is greater than 90 days past due.

Table of Contents


Whenever possible, Park utilizes its own loan-level PDs for the reasonable and supportable forecast period. When loan-level data is not available reflecting the forecasted economic conditions, a forecast model is utilized to estimate PDs.
Loss given default – LGD is the percentage of the asset not expected to be collected due to default. Whenever possible, Park utilizes its own loan-level LGDs for the reasonable and supportable forecast period. When it is not possible to use Park's own LGDs, the LGD is derived using a method referred to as Frye Jacobs.
Prepayments and curtailments – Prepayments and curtailments are calculated based on Park’s own data utilizing a three-year average. This analysis is updated annually in the fourth quarter and was last updated in the fourth quarter of 2021.2022.
Forecast and reversion – Park has established a one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period with a one-year straight line reversion to the long-term historical average.
Economic forecast - Park utilizes a third party to provide economic forecasts under various scenarios, which are weighted in order to reflect model risk in the current economic environment. The scenario weighting is evaluated by management on a quarterly basis.
AsAs of December 31, 2021,2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.32%4.14% and 3.97% 4.36% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at December 31, 2021, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. While some economic indications continued to be optimistic, the Omicron variant, rising inflation, volatility in consumer confidence, employment, supply chain and workforce challenges continued to cause uncertainty in the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at December 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.36% and 3.75% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at March 31, 2022, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. While some economic indications were optimistic, the surging inflation, volatility in consumer confidence, workforce challenges, and geopolitical conflict (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine) continued to cause uncertainty in the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the previous quarter's weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at March 31, 2022. Improved forecasts, largely in the "moderate recession" scenario, resulted in a 4 basis point decline in the weighted quantitative allowance.
As of June 30, 2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.36% and 3.57% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at June 30, 2022, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. While some economic indications were optimistic, the surging inflation, declining consumer confidence, rising interest rates, geopolitical conflict (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine), and workforce and supply chain challenges continued to cause uncertainty to the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the previous quarter's weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at June 30, 2022. Deteriorating forecasts, largely in the "moderate recession" scenario, resulted in a 4 basis point increase in the weighted quantitative allowance.
As of September 30, 2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.86% and 4.05% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at September 30, 2022, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. The continued high level of inflation, historically low consumer confidence, rising interest rates, geopolitical conflict (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine), and workforce and supply chain challenges continued to cause uncertainty as to the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the previous quarter'sexisting weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at September 30,December 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2023, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 4.15% and 4.51% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at March 31, 2023, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. The continued high level of inflation, historically low consumer confidence, rising interest rates, financial system stress related to recent bank failures, geopolitical conflict, and workforce challenges continued to cause uncertainty as to the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the existing weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario resulted in a 4 basis point increase in the weighted quantitative allowance.50% at March 31, 2023.

Qualitative Considerations
Park reviews various internal and external factors to consider the need for any qualitative adjustments to the quantitative model. Factors considered include the following:
The nature and volume of Park’s financial assets; the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit and the volume and severity of past due financial assets, the volume of nonaccrual assets, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded assets. Specifically, management considers:

Table of Contents


Trends (e.g., growth, reduction) in specific categories of the loan portfolio, as well as adjustments to the types of loans offered by Park.
Level of and trend in loan delinquencies, troubled loans, commercial watch list loans and nonperforming loans.
Level of and trend in new nonaccrual loans.
Level of and trend in loan charge-offs and recoveries.
Park's lending policies and procedures, including changes in lending strategies, underwriting standards and practices for collections, write-offs, and recoveries.

Table of Contents


The quality of Park’s credit review function.
The experience, ability, and depth of Park’s lending, investment, collection, and other relevant management and staff.
The effect of other external factors such as the regulatory, legal and technological environments; competition; geopolitical conflict; and events such as natural disasters or pandemics.
Actual and expected changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments in the markets in which Park operates that affect the collectibility of financial assets.
Where the U.S. economy is within a given credit cycle.
The extent that there is government assistance (stimulus).

During 2020, Park added an additional reserve for three industries at particularly high risk due to the COVID-19 pandemic: hotels and accommodations; restaurants and food service; and strip shopping centers. These industries have experienced high levels of deferrals and have been particularly impacted by shut downs of non-essential businesses, increased health department regulations, and changes in consumer behavior. Management expects that a relatively higher percentage of the 4-rated credits in these portfolios will eventually migrate to special mention, substandard, or doubtful. In adopting CECL, management determined it was appropriate to retain this qualitative adjustment as this adjustment takes into account the additional risk in these portfolios, which is not captured in the quantitative calculation. Even though COVID-19 case numbers have declined since December 31, 2021, these industries are still recovering from the pandemic effects. As of September 30, 2022, additional reserves totaling $1.4 million were added for these portfolios on top of the quantitative reserve already calculated. This was a decrease from $5.2 million as ofMarch 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021 and reflected improvement in COVID-19 cases, eased COVID-19 health department precautions and improving affected industry performance. Management believes there is still residual risk in these portfolios related to pandemic effects and uncertainty in future COVID-19 strains and related impacts.

A breakout of the 4-rated balances within these portfolios and the additional reserve related to these portfolios is detailed in the following table:

September 30, 2022December 31, 2021
(in thousands)4-Rated BalanceAdditional Reserve4-Rated BalanceAdditional Reserve
Hotels and accommodations$182,806 $687 $148,018 $2,226

Total$400,450 $1,430 $372,837 $5,176 

Additionally, at September 30, 2022, management applied a 0.50% reserve to all hotels and accommodations loans in the collectively evaluated population to account for increased valuation risk. This 0.50% reserve was reduced from 0.75% at June 30, 2022 and 1.00% at December 31, 2021. At September 30, 2022, Park's collectively evaluated hotels and accommodation loans had a balance of $218.0 million with an additional reserve related to valuation risks of $1.1 million. At December 31, 2021, Park's collectively evaluated hotels and accommodation loans had a balance of $203.9 million with an additional reserve related to valuation risks of $2.0 million.

As of September 30, 2022, Park had $5.7$3.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of PPP loans which were included in the commercial, financial and agricultural portfolio segment. These loans are guaranteed by the SBA and thus have not been reserved for using the same methodology as the rest of Park’s loan portfolio. A 10 basis point reserve at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was calculated for these loans to reflect minimal credit risk.

The gain expected upon sale was $26,000$32,000 and $166,000$41,000 at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively. None of these loans were 90 days or more past due or on nonaccrual status at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2021.2022.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, Park transferred certain commercial loans held for investment, previously nonperforming, with an amortized cost of $6.3 million, to the loans held for sale portfolio. The transferred loans were recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, recording a charge-off in each instance where the fair value of an individual loan was deemed to be below the carrying cost at the time the loans were moved to the held for sale portfolio. The sale of $3.9 million in loans held for sale was subsequently completed during the three months ended September 30, 2022, and Park recognized a gain on sale of $495,000 which is recorded within "Miscellaneous income" on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. The remaining $2.4 million in loans held for sale were transferred back to loans held for investment at the lower of cost or fair value. No non-performing loans were held for sale or sold during the three months or the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Note 11 – Loan Servicing
 
Park serviced sold mortgage loans of $2.09$2.02 billion at September 30, 2022, $2.13March 31, 2023, $2.05 billion at December 31, 20212022 and $2.12$2.14 billion at September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. At September 30, 2022, $3.3March 31, 2023, $3.2 million of the sold mortgage loans were sold with recourse, compared to $3.3$3.2 million at December 31, 20212022 and $3.5$3.4 million at September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Management closely monitors the delinquency rates on the mortgage loans sold with recourse. At September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, management had established reserves of $61,000$56,000 and $57,000,$59,000, respectively, to account for expected losses on loan repurchases.
 
When Park sells mortgage loans with servicing rights retained, these servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value. Park has 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 with respect to the underlying loan. At the end of each reporting period, the carrying value of MSRs is assessed for impairment with a comparison to fair value. MSRs are carried at the lower of their amortized cost or fair value. The amortization of MSRs is included within "Other service income" in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Note 12 - Leases

Park is a lessee in several noncancellable operating lease arrangements, primarily for retail branches, administrative and warehouse buildings, ATMs, and certain office equipment within its Ohio, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Kentucky markets. Certain of these leases contain renewal options for periods ranging from one to five years. Park’s leases generally do not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants. Payments due under the
46

Table of Contents


lease contractsarrangements include fixed payments plus, for many of Park’s real estate leases, variable payments such as Park's proportionate share of property taxes, insurance and common area maintenance.

Park elected the practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components. Additionally, Park has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less. Park recognizes the lease payments associated with its short-term leases as an expense on a cash basis.

Management determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. If an arrangement is determined to be or contain a lease, Park recognizes a ROU asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the lease commencement date. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of Park's leases were classified as operating leases.

Park’s lease liability is initially and subsequently measured as the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date. Key estimates and judgments related to the lease liability include how management determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the unpaid lease payments to present value, (2) the lease term, and (3) lease payments.

ASC 842 requires a lessee to discount its unpaid lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, its incremental borrowing rate. Generally, Park's management cannot determine the interest rate implicit in a lease because it does not have access to the lessor’s estimated residual value or the amount of the lessor’s deferred initial direct costs. Therefore, Park utilizes its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases. Park’s incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest Park would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. To manage its capital and liquidity needs, Park periodically obtains wholesale funding from the FHLB on an over-collateralized basis. The impact of utilizing an interest rate on an over-collateralized borrowing versus a fully collateralized borrowing is not material. Therefore, the FHLB yield curve was selected by Park's management as a baseline to determine Park’s discount rates for leases.

The lease term for all of Park's leases includes the noncancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either Park's option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that Park is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor. If a lease contract contains multiple renewal options, Park's management generally models lease cash flows through the first renewal option period unless the contract contains economic incentives or other conditions that increase or decrease the likelihood that additional renewals are reasonably certain to be exercised.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are comprised of the following:
Fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments, owed over the lease term;
For certain of Park's gross real estate leases, non-lease components such as real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance; and
Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the lease commencement date.

The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. For operating leases, the ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Park's operating lease ROU asset and lease liability are presented in “Operating lease right-of-use asset" and "Operating lease liability," respectively, on Park's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The carrying amounts of Park's ROU asset and lease liability at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 were $15.5$17.2 million and $16.4$18.7 million, respectively. At December 31, 2021,2022, the carrying amounts of Park's ROU asset and lease liability were $13.4$17.6 million and $14.3$19.3 million, respectively. Park's operating lease expense is recorded in "Occupancy expense" on the Company's Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Note 14 - Derivatives

Park uses certain derivative financial instruments (or "derivatives") to meet the needs of itsPark's clients while managing the interest rate risk associated with certain transactions. Park does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. A summary of derivative financial instruments utilized by Park follows.

Interest Rate Swaps
Park utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset-liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position and as a means to meet the financing, interest rate and other risk management needs of qualifying commercial banking customers. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent the amount exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements.

Borrowing Derivatives: At September 30,March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Park had no borrowing derivatives. Interest rateDuring the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, Park recognized interest expense of $148,000 related to borrowing swaps. Additionally, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, Park recognized a gain of $139,000, net of income taxes, related to borrowing swaps with notional amounts totaling $25.0 million at that was recorded in "Other comprehensive income (loss)" on theDecember 31, 2021 were designated as cash flow hedges Consolidated Condensed Statements of certain FHLB advances.Comprehensive Income.

Loan Derivatives: In conjunction with the Carolina Alliance acquisition, Park acquired interest rate swaps related to certain commercial loans. Simultaneously with borrowers entering into interest rate swaps, Carolina Alliance entered into offsetting interest rate swaps executed with a third party, such that Carolina Alliance minimized its net interest rate risk exposure resulting from such transactions. These interest rate swaps had a notional amount totaling $22.8$21.3 million and $29.721.7 million at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively.

As such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. Therefore, the aggregate fair value of the swaps is recorded in "Other assets" and "Other liabilities" with changes in fair value recorded in "Other comprehensive income (loss) income"".

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, Park recognized expense of $66,000 as the result of the early termination of a borrowing interest rate swap. No expense related to early termination was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2022 or the three months or the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Park expects the outstanding hedges to remain fully effective during the remaining respective terms of the swaps.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives
Commitments to fund mortgage loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of these mortgage loans are accounted for as free standing derivatives. In order to hedge the change in interest rates resulting from its commitments to fund the loans, the Company enters into forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans when interest rate locks are entered into. These mortgage banking derivatives are not designated as hedge relationships. The fair value of an interest rate lock is recorded at the time the commitment to fund the mortgage loan is executed and is adjusted for the expected exercise of the commitment before the loan is funded. Fair values of these mortgage banking derivatives are estimated based on changes in mortgage interest rates from the date the interest on the loan is locked. Changes in the fair values of these derivatives are included in "Other service income" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

At September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022, Park had $5.4$3.9 million and $13.3$2.1 million, respectively, of interest rate lock commitments. The fair value of these mortgage banking derivatives was reflected by a derivative asset of $0.1 million$77,000 and $0.3 million$46,000 at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022, respectively.

Other Derivatives
In connection with the sale of Park’s Class B Visa shares during 2009, 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 September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022, the fair value of the swap liability of $243,000121,000 and $226,000,$243,000, respectively, represented an estimate of the exposure based upon probability-weighted potential Visa litigation losses.

Note 20 – 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 (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction 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 individually evaluated collateral dependent loans is typically based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, which is estimated through third-party appraisals in accordance with Park's valuation requirements under its commercial and real estate loan policies.

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

Interest rate swaps:  The fair values of interest rate swaps are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Investment securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows (Level 3).

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 and is classified as Level 3.

Mortgage Interest Rate Lock Commitments:interest rate lock commitments: Mortgage 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 market prices for similar product types and, therefore, are classified in Level 2.

The following tables present a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Level 3 inputs for the three-month and nine-monthperiods ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, 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 as described below:

Individually evaluated collateral dependent loans: When a loan is individually evaluated, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Collateral dependent loans which are individually evaluated and carried at fair value have been partially charged off or receive specific allocations of the allowance for credit 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 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. Collateral is then adjusted or discounted based on

Table of Contents


management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Individually evaluated loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. Additionally, updated independent valuations are obtained annually for all collateral dependent loans are updated annually, either through independent valuations by a licensed appraiser or a verification of value ("VOV") performed by an internal licensed appraiser, in accordance with Company policy. A VOV can only be used in select circumstances and verifies that the original appraised value has not deteriorated through property inspection, consideration of market conditions, and performance of all valuation methods utilized in a prior valuation.

After the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023, loans individually evaluated for impairment include all internally classified commercial nonaccrual loans. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02, loans individually evaluated for impairment included all internally classified commercial nonaccrual loans and accruing TDRs.

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 individually evaluated collateral dependent loans and OREO are performed by licensed appraisers. Appraisals are generally obtained to support the fair value of collateral. In general, there are three types of appraisals received by the Company: real estate appraisals, income approach appraisals, and lot development loan appraisals. 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.

Income approach appraisals typically incorporate the annual net operating income of the business divided by an appropriate capitalization rate, as determined by the appraiser. Management generally applies a 15% discount to income approach appraised values which management expects will cover all disposition costs (including selling costs).

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.

Other repossessed assets: Other repossessed assets are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired. The carrying value of other repossessed assets 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. At December 31, 2021, other repossessed assets primarily consisted of aircraft acquired as part of a loan workout. Fair value is based on Aircraft Bluebook and VREF Aircraft Value Reference values based on the model of aircraft and adjustments for flight hours, features and other variables. Such adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. There were no repossessed assets carried at fair value at September 30, 2022.

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. Individually evaluated collateral dependent loans secured by real estate are carried at fair value if they have been charged down to fair value or if a specific valuation allowance has been established. As of September 30, 2022At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, there were no PCD loans

carried at fair value. 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 with respect to the property's value subsequent to the initial measurement.

A description of Park's material revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 follows:

Income from fiduciary activities (gross): Park earns fiduciary fee income and investment brokerage fees from its contracts with trust customers for various fiduciary and investment-related services. These fees are earned over time as the Company provides the contracted monthly and quarterly services and are generally assessed based on the market value of the trust assets.

Service charges on deposit accounts and ATM fees: The Corporation earns fees from the Corporation's deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering fees, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Corporation fulfills the customer's request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are generally recognized at the end of the month, representing the period over which the Corporation satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer's account balance.

Other service income: Other service income includes income from (1) the sale and servicing of loans sold to the secondary market, (2) incentive income from third-party credit card issuers, and (3) loan customers for various loan-related activities and services. Income related to the sale and servicing of loans sold to the secondary market is included within "Other service income", but is not within the scope of ASC 606. Services that fall within the scope of ASC 606 are recognized as revenue when the Company satisfies the Company's performance obligation to the customer.

Table of Contents


Debit card fee income: Park earns interchange fees from debit cardholder transactions conducted primarily through the Visa payment network. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, net of card network fees, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder.

Gain or loss on sale of OREO, net: The Corporation records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of delivery of an executed deed. When Park finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Corporation assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform the buyer's obligation under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Corporation adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.

OREO valuation markup: The Corporation records an OREO valuation markup immediately prior to the transfer of a loan to OREO when the fair market value of the property less costs to sell exceeds the principal balance of the loan.

Note 22 - Other Matters

On February 28, 2023, Park National Bank reached an agreement with the DOJ to increase the efforts of Park National Bank to promote home lending in the Columbus, Ohio market. The agreement, which is reflected in the consent order filed on February 28, 2023, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio (the “DOJ Consent Order”) and approved by that Court on March 2, 2023, served to voluntarily resolve all claims of the U.S. alleging that Park National Bank’s mortgage lending practices within the Columbus, Ohio Metropolitan Statistical Area violated the Fair Housing Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.

In accordance with the terms of the DOJ Consent Order, Park National Bank will invest a minimum of $7.75 million over five years in a loan subsidy fund to increase credit opportunities for home mortgage loans, home improvement loans, home refinance loans and home equity loans and lines of credit for consumers applying for loans in majority-minority census tracts ("MMCTs") in Fairfield, Franklin, Hocking, Licking, Morrow and Perry counties in Ohio (the “Columbus Lending Area”). Park National Bank will also devote a minimum of $500,000 over five years toward one or more community development partnership programs that provide services to residents of MMCTs in the Columbus Lending Area related to credit, financial education, homeownership and foreclosure prevention; and at least $750,000 over five years toward advertising, community outreach, consumer financial education and credit counseling in the Columbus Lending Area. Park National Bank will also establish one new mortgage loan production office and one new full-service branch in MMCTs in the Columbus Lending Area and hire four lenders, one of whom will be Spanish-speaking, focused on serving these communities. In addition, Park National Bank will continue to maintain, throughout the term of the DOJ Consent Order, Park National Bank’s full-time Director of Community Home Lending and Development position, who will oversee Park National Bank’s lending in MMCTs in the Columbus Lending Area.

Park is committed to investing at least $9.0 million over five years and will record the related expenses incurred in the period in which the associated activities occur.

Non-GAAPNon-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

This Management's Discussion and Analysis (or "MD&A") contains non-U.S. GAAP financial measures where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Park’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, can be found herein.

Items Impacting Comparability of Period Results
From time to time, revenue, expenses and/or taxes are impacted by items judged by management of Park to be outside of ordinary banking activities and/or by items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that their outsized impact is believed by management of Park at that time to be infrequent or short-term in nature. Most often, these items impacting comparability of period results are due to merger and acquisition activities and revenue and expenses related to former Vision Bank loan relationships. In other cases, they may result from management's decisions associated with significant corporate actions outside of the ordinary course of business.

Even though certain revenue and expense items are naturally subject to more volatility than others due to changes in market and economic environment conditions, as a general rule volatility alone does not result in the inclusion of an item as one impacting comparability of period results. For example, changes in the provision for / (recovery of) credit losses (aside from those related to former Vision Bank loan relationships), gains (losses) on equity securities, net, and asset valuation adjustments, reflect ordinary banking activities and are, therefore, typically excluded from consideration as items impacting comparability of period results.

Management believes the disclosure of items impacting comparability of period results provides a better understanding of Park's performance and trends and allows management to ascertain which of such items, if any, to include or exclude from an analysis of Park's performance; i.e., within the context of determining how that performance differed from expectations, as well as how, if at all, to adjust estimates of future performance taking such items into account.

Items impacting comparability of the results of particular periods are not intended to be a complete list of items that may materially impact current or future period performance.

Non-GAAPNon-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
Park's management uses certain non-GAAPnon-U.S. GAAP financial measures to evaluate Park's performance. Specifically, management reviews the return on average tangible equity, the return on average tangible assets, the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible book value per common share and pre-tax, pre-provision net income.

Management has included in the tables included within the "Items Impacting Comparability" section of this MD&A information relating to the annualized return on average tangible equity, the annualized return on average tangible assets, the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible book value per common share and pre-tax, pre-provision net income for the three months and the nine months ended and at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. For the purpose of calculating the annualized return on average tangible equity, a non-GAAPnon-U.S.GAAP financial measure, net income for each period is divided by average tangible equity during the period. Average tangible equity equals average shareholders' equity during the applicable period less average goodwill and other intangible assets during the applicable period. For the purpose of calculating the annualized return on average tangible assets, a non-GAAPnon-U.S. GAAP financial measure, net income for each period is divided by average tangible assets during the period. Average tangible assets equals average assets during the applicable period less average goodwill and other intangible assets during the applicable period. For the purpose of calculating the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, a non-GAAPnon-U.S. GAAP financial measure, tangible equity is divided by tangible assets. Tangible equity equals total shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, in each case at period end. Tangible assets equal total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets, in each case at period end. For the purpose of calculating tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAPnon-U.S. GAAP financial measure, tangible equity is divided by the number of common shares outstanding, in each case at period end. For the purpose of calculating pre-tax, pre-provision net income, a non-GAAPnon-U.S. GAAP financial measure, income taxes and the provision for (recovery of) credit losses are added back to net income, in each case during the applicable period.

Management believes that the disclosure of the annualized return on average tangible equity, the annualized return on average tangible assets, the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible book value per common share and pre-tax, pre-provision net income presents additional information to the reader of the condensed consolidated financial statements, which, when read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, assists in analyzing Park's operating performance, ensures comparability of operating performance from period to period, and facilitates comparisons with the performance of Park's peer financial holding companies and bank holding companies, while eliminating certain non-operational effects of acquisitions. In the tables included within the "Items Impacting Comparability" section of this MD&A, Park has provided a reconciliation of average tangible equity to average shareholders' equity, average tangible assets to average assets, tangible equity to total shareholders' equity, tangible assets to total assets, and pre-tax, pre-provision net income to net income solely for the purpose of complying with SEC Regulation G and not as an indication that the annualized return on average tangible equity, the annualized return on average tangible assets, the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible book value per common share and pre-tax, pre-provision net income are substitutes for the annualized return on average equity, the annualized return on average assets, the total shareholders' equity to total assets ratio, book value per common share and net income, respectively, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

FTE (fully taxable equivalent) Financial Measures
Interest income, yields, and ratios on a FTE basis are considered non-GAAPnon-U.S. GAAP financial measures. Management believes net interest income on a FTE basis provides an insightful picture of the interest margin for comparison purposes. The FTE basis also allows management to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources. The FTE basis assumes a federal corporate federal statutoryincome tax rate of 21 percent. In the tables included within the "Items Impacting Comparability" section of this MD&A, Park has provided a reconciliation of FTE interest income solely for the purpose of complying with SEC Regulation G and not as an indication that FTE interest income, yields and ratios are substitutes for interest income, yields and ratios, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") Loans
Park originated an aggregate of $764.7 million in loans as part of the PPP. For its assistance in making and retaining these loans, Park received an aggregate of $33.1 million in fees from the SBA. These loans are not typical of Park's loan portfolio in that they are part of a specific government program to support businesses during the COVID-19COVID pandemic and are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. As such, management considers growth in the loan portfolio excluding PPP loans, the total allowance for

credit losses to total loans ratio (excluding PPP loans), and general reserve on collectively evaluated loans as a percentage of total collectively evaluated loans (excluding PPP loans) in addition to the related U.S. GAAP metrics which are not adjusted for PPP loans.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 20212022 Form 10-K 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. GAAP and general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of
74

Table of Contents


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.

The COVID-19 pandemicRecent bank failures have called into question the stability of the financial services industry. While Park is well capitalized and has caused significant unprecedented disruption aroundavailable liquidity, the world that has affected daily living and negatively impacted the global economy. Additionally, geopolitical conflict (including the conflict in Ukraine) and inflationary pressures have added uncertainty to the overall economic environment. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical conflict,these failures and inflationpotential future failures may meaningfully impact significant estimates such as the allowance for credit losses, goodwill, and pension plan obligations and related expenses.
 
Allowance for Credit Losses: Park believes the determination of the allowance for credit losses involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity than its other significant accounting policies. The allowance for credit losses is calculated with the objective of maintaining a reserve level believed by management to be sufficient to absorb estimated credit losses over the life of an asset or an off-balance sheet credit exposure. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is based on periodic evaluations of past events, including historical credit loss experience on financial assets with similar risk characteristics, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the remaining cash flows over the contractual term of the financial assets. However, this evaluation has subjective components requiring material estimates, including expected default probabilities, the expected loss given default,LGD, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on individually evaluated loans, and estimated losses based on historical loss experience and forecasted economic conditions. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent that actual results differ from management estimates, additional provisions for credit losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods.

One of the most significant judgments impacting the ACL estimate is the economic forecast for Ohio unemployment, Ohio GDP, and Ohio HPI. Changes in the economic forecast could significantly affect the estimated credit losses which could potentially lead to materially different allowance levels from one reporting period to the next.

In calculating the ACL, management weighs several different scenarios, including a baseline (most likely) scenario and an adverse scenario. To create hypothetical sensitivity analyses, management calculated a quantitative allowance using a 100% weighting applied to a baseline scenario and a quantitative allowance using a 100% weighting applied to an adverse scenario. The adverse scenario considersassumes among other things that: (1) the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine worsens significantly and persists longer than anticipated resulting in a disruption in oil supplyworsening supply-chain conditions and increased inflation; (2) supply chain issues erode, with increasedincreasing shortages of many goods, also boosting inflation;goods; (2) supply-chain shortages weaken manufacturing; (3) inflation remains elevated, which leads tothough slightly below the baseline amid persistent shortages and concerns about a recession and increased unemployment;wage price spiral; (4) the Federal Reserve Board continues to increase interest rates, atinitially keeps the fed funds rate elevated, though a higher degreebit less than in the baseline scenario,because of weakening economy; (5) recent bank failures raise fears of further collapse in the banking industry, reducing consumer confidence and causing banks to combat high inflation affecting consumer spending as well as causing businesses to have higher costs associated with obtaining capital, therefore slowing down growth;tighten lending standards; and (5) new cases, hospitalizations and deaths from COVID-19 start to rise significantly again, slowing growth(6) the economy falls into recession in spending on air travel, retail and hotels.the second quarter of 2023. The adverse scenario forecasts Ohio unemployment for the next twelve months to range from 6.3%6.5% to 8.3%9.1%. Excluding consideration of general reserve adjustments, this sensitivity analysis would result in a hypothetical increase in Park's ACL of $23.5$27.7 million as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 if only the adverse scenario was used. Excluding consideration of general reserve adjustments, a corresponding $23.5$27.7 million decrease in Park's ACL would occur in a hypothetical scenario if only the baseline (most likely) scenario was used.

Refer to the "Credit Metrics and Provision for (Recovery of) Credit Losses" section of this MD&A for additional discussion.

Goodwill: Management believes that the accounting for goodwill also involves a higher degree of judgment than most other significant accounting policies. U.S. GAAP establishes standards for the impairment assessment of goodwill. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in each business acquired. Park’s goodwill, as of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, relates to the value inherent in the bankingfinancial services industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of Park’s national bank subsidiary, 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 could lead to impairment of goodwill that could, in turn, adversely impact earnings in future periods.
62

Table of Contents


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 evaluates goodwill for impairment during the second quarter of each year, with financial data as of the immediately preceding March 31. Based on the qualitative analysis performed as of April 1, 2022, the Company determined that goodwill for Park's reporting unit, PNB, was not impaired. The fair value of the goodwill, which resides on the books of PNB,
75

Table of Contents


is evaluated for potential impairment by reviewing the past and projected operating results for PNB, deposit and loan totals for PNB and bankingfinancial services industry comparable information.

Pension Plan: The determination of pension plan obligations and related expenses requires the use of assumptions to estimate the amount of benefits that employees will 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 pension plan; and
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.

COVID-19 ConsiderationsLiquidity and Capital

Park continues to maintain strong capital and liquidity. Funds are available from a number of sources, including the capital markets, the investment securities portfolio, the core deposit base, FHLB borrowings and the capability to securitize or package loans for sale. The most easily accessible forms of liquidity, Fed Funds Sold, off balance sheet deposits, unpledged investment securities and available FHLB borrowing capacity, totaled $2.74 billion at March 31, 2023.

Park's debt securities portfolio is classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") and these debt securities are available to be sold in the future in response to Park's liquidity needs, changes in market interest rates, and asset-liability management strategies, among other reasons. AFS debt securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings, but included in other comprehensive loss, net of applicable income taxes. The table below provides additional detail on Park's debt securities portfolio and capital position.

Park's deposits grew during the COVID pandemic and normalized throughout 2022. In order to manage the impact of this growth on its balance sheet, Park has utilized a program where certain deposit balances are transferred off balance sheet while maintaining the customer relationship. Park is able to increase or decrease the amount off balance sheet based on its balance sheet management strategies and liquidity needs. The balance of deposits transferred off balance sheet has declined as deposit

Credit Metrics and Provision for (Recovery of) Credit Losses

The provision for (recovery of) credit losses is the amount added to/subtracted from the allowance for credit losses to ensure the allowance is sufficient to absorb estimated credit losses over the life of a loan. The amount of the provision for (recovery of) credit losses is determined by management based on relevant information about past events, including historical credit loss experience on financial assets with similar risk characteristics, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the remaining cash flows over the contractual term of the financial assets.

The adoption of ASU 2016-132022-02 on January 1, 20212023 resulted in a $6.1 million$383,000 increase to the allowance for credit losses and a $3.9 million increase to the allowance for unfunded credit losses. A cumulative effect adjustment resulting in an $8.0 milliona $303,000 decrease to retained earnings and a $2.1 millionan $80,000 increase to deferred tax assets was also recorded.

Generally, management obtains updated valuations for all nonperforming loans are updated at least annually.annually, either through independent valuations by a licensed appraiser or a verification of value ("VOV") performed by an internal licensed appraiser, in accordance with Company policy. A VOV can only be used in select circumstances and verifies that the original appraised value has not deteriorated through property inspection, consideration of market conditions, and performance of all valuation methods utilized in a prior valuation. 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.

Nonperforming Assets: NonperformingAfter the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023, which eliminated the TDR classification, non-performing assets include: (1) loans whose interest is accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; (2) loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments but whose interest continues to accrue; and (3) OREO which results from taking possession of property that served as collateral for a defaulted loan.

Park classifies loans as nonaccrual when a loan (1) is maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower, (2) payment in full of principal or interest is not expected, or (3) principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days for commercial loans and 120 days for all other loans. As a result, loans may be classified as nonaccrual despite being current with their contractual terms. The following table details the delinquency status of nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, December 31, 20212022 and September, 2021.March 31, 2022. Loans are classified as current if they are less than 30 days past due.

Credit Quality Indicators: When determining the quarterly credit 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 that are pass-rated (graded an 1 through a 4) 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 PD is applied to these loans. Commercial loans graded a 6 (substandard), also considered to be watch list credits, represent higher credit risk than those rated special mention and, as a result, a higher PD is applied to these loans. 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 placed on nonaccrual status and included within the individually evaluated category. Any commercial loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged-off.

The following table highlights the credit trends within the commercial loan portfolio.

Park's watch list includes all criticized and classified commercial loans, defined by Park as loans rated special mention or worse. Park had $77.2$89.6 million of collectively evaluated commercial loans included on the watch list at September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, compared to $75.4$81.8 million at December 31, 2021,2022, and $92.7$78.5 million at September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. The existing conditions of these loans do not warrant classification as nonaccrual. However, these loans have shown some weakness and management performs additional analysis regarding each borrower's ability to comply with payment terms.

The $77.2 million of collectively evaluated commercial watch list loans as of September 30, 2022 was elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels, an increase of $50.4 million compared to $26.8 million at March 31, 2020. This $50.4 million increase was largely due to $34.0 million of hotels and accommodations loans that were downgraded to special mention as a result of the impact of COVID-19 and a $22.7 million downgrade to a special mention credit related to a loan to a non-bank consumer finance company, partially offset by problem loan resolutions. Park continues to closely monitor the impact of COVID-19 and related economic recovery on its borrowers' ability to repay their loans in accordance with contractual terms. As additional information becomes available, management will continue to evaluate loans to ensure appropriate risk classification.

Individually Evaluated Loans: Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Park has determined that any commercial loans which have been placed on nonaccrual status or classified as TDRs will be individually evaluated. Individual analysis will establish a specific reserve for loans in scope.  Specific reserves on individually evaluated commercial loans are typically based on management’s best estimate of the fair value of collateral securing these loans. The amount ultimately charged off for these loans may be different from the specific reserve as the ultimate liquidation of the collateral may be for an amount different from management’s estimate.

acquired with deteriorated credit quality at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022 was $4.9$4.6 million and $7.1$4.7 million, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses: The allowance for credit losses is calculated on a quarterly basis. The methodology for calculating the ACL and assumptions made as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 are detailed below.

Quantitative Considerations
The ACL is primarily calculated utilizing a DCF model. Key inputs and assumptionassumptions used in this model are discussed below:

Forecast model - For each portfolio segment, a LDA was performed in order to identify appropriate loss drivers and create a regression model for use in forecasting cash flows. The LDA analysis utilized Park's own FFIEC Call Report data for the commercial, financial and agricultural and residential real estate portfolio segments. Peer data was incorporated into the analysis for the commercial real estate, construction real estate, and consumer portfolio segments. Park plans to updateupdated the LDA annually; however, due to the impact of COVID-19, the LDA analysis was last updated in the fourth quarter of 2019.2022 with data through September 30, 2022. After considering the impact of the inclusion of periods impacted by COVID, as well as analysis of the ongoing applicability of the selected peer group, management decided it was appropriate to continue to utilize the LDA analysis from the fourth quarter of 2019 as the correlation of the LDA was higher.
Probability of default – PD is the probability that an asset will be in default within a given time frame. Park has defined default to be when a charge-off has occurred, a loan is placed on nonaccrual, or a loan is greater than 90 days past due. Whenever possible, Park utilizes its own loan-level PDs for the reasonable and supportable forecast period. When loan level-dataloan-level data is not available reflecting the forecasted economic conditions, a forecast model is utilized to estimate PDs.
Loss given default – LGD is the percentage of the asset not expected to be collected due to default. Whenever possible, Park utilizes its own loan-level LGDs for the reasonable and supportable forecast period. When it is not possible to use Park's own LGDs, the LGD is derived using a method referred to as Frye Jacobs.
Prepayments and curtailments – Prepayments and curtailments are calculated based on Park’s own data utilizing a three-year average. This analysis is updated annually in the fourth quarter and was last updated in the fourth quarter of 2021.2022.
Forecast and reversion – Park has established a one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period with a one-year straight line reversion to the long-term historical average.
Economic forecast - Park utilizes a third party to provide economic forecasts under various scenarios, which are weighted in order to reflect model risk in the current economic environment. The scenario weighting is evaluated by management on a quarterly basis.
AsAs of December 31, 2021,2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.32%4.14% and 3.97% 4.36% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at December 31, 2021, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. While some economic indications continued to be optimistic, the Omicron variant, rising inflation, volatility in consumer confidence, employment, supply chain and workforce challenges continued to cause uncertainty in the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was

appropriate to weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at December 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.36% and 3.75% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at March 31, 2022, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. While some economic indications were optimistic, the surging inflation, volatility in consumer confidence, workforce challenges, and geopolitical conflict (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine) continued to cause uncertainty in the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the previous quarter's weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at March 31, 2022. Improved forecasts, largely in the "moderate recession" scenario, resulted in a 4 basis point decline in the weighted quantitative allowance.
As of June 30, 2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.36% and 3.57% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at June 30, 2022, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. While some economic indications were optimistic, the surging inflation, declining consumer confidence, rising interest rates, geopolitical conflict (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine), and workforce and supply chain challenges continued to cause uncertainty to the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the previous quarter's weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at June 30, 2022. Deteriorating forecasts, largely in the "moderate recession" scenario, resulted in a 4 basis point increase in the weighted quantitative allowance.
As of September 30, 2022, the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 3.86% and 4.05% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at September 30, 2022, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. The continued high level of inflation, historically low consumer confidence, rising interest rates, geopolitical conflict (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine), and workforce and supply chain challenges continued to cause uncertainty as to the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the previous quarter'sexisting weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario 50% at September 30,December 31, 2022. Deteriorating forecasts, largely in
As of March 31, 2023 the "most likely" scenario forecasted Ohio unemployment between 4.15% and 4.51% during the next four quarters. In determining the appropriate weighting of scenarios at March 31, 2023, management considered the range of forecasted unemployment as well as a number of economic indicators. The continued high level of inflation, historically low consumer confidence, rising interest rates, financial system stress related to recent bank failures, geopolitical conflict, and workforce challenges continued to cause uncertainty as to the overall economic environment. Considering these factors, management determined it was appropriate to maintain the existing weighting, and weigh the "most likely" scenario 50% and the "moderate recession" scenario resulted in a 4 basis point increase in the weighted quantitative allowance.50% at March 31, 2023.

Qualitative Considerations
Park reviews various internal and external factors to consider the need for any qualitative adjustments to the quantitative model. Factors considered include the following:following:
The nature and volume of Park’s financial assets; the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit and the volume and severity of past due financial assets, the volume of nonaccrual assets, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded assets. Specifically, management considers:
Trends (e.g., growth, reduction) in specific categories of the loan portfolio, as well as adjustments to the types of loans offered by Park.

The effect of other external factors such as the regulatory, legal and technological environments; competition; geopolitical conflict; and events such as natural disasters or pandemics.
Actual and expected changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments in the markets in which Park operates that affect the collectibility of financial assets.
Where the U.S. economy is within a given credit cycle.
The extent that there is government assistance (stimulus).

During 2020, Park added an additional reserve for three industries at particularly high risk due to the COVID-19 pandemic: hotels and accommodations; restaurants and food service; and strip shopping centers. These industries have experienced high levels of deferrals and have been particularly impacted by shut downs of non-essential businesses, increased health department regulations, and changes in consumer behavior. Management expects that a relatively higher percentage of the 4-rated credits in these portfolios will eventually migrate to special mention, substandard, or doubtful. In adopting CECL, management

determined it was appropriate to retain this qualitative adjustment as this adjustment takes into account the additional risk in these portfolios, which is not captured in the quantitative calculation. Even though COVID-19 case numbers have declined since December 31, 2021, these industries are still recovering from the pandemic effects. As of September 30, 2022, additional reserves totaling $1.4 million were added for these portfolios on top of the quantitative reserve already calculated. This was a decrease from $5.2 million as ofMarch 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021 and reflected improvement in COVID-19 cases, eased COVID-19 health department precautions and improving affected industry performance. Management believes there is still residual risk in these portfolios related to pandemic effects and uncertainty in future COVID-19 strains and related impacts.

A breakout of the 4-rated balances within these portfolios and the additional reserve related to these portfolios is detailed in the following table.

September 30, 2022December 31, 2021

Total$400,450 $1,430 $372,837 $5,176 

Additionally, at September 30, 2022, management applied a 0.50% reserve to all hotels and accommodations loans in the collectively evaluated population to account for increased valuation risk. This 0.50% reserve was reduced from 0.75% at June 30, 2022 and 1.00% at December 31, 2021. At September 30, 2022, Park's collectively evaluated hotels and accommodation loans had a balance of $218.0 million with an additional reserve related to valuation risks of $1.1 million. At December 31, 2021, Park's collectively evaluated hotels and accommodation loans had a balance of $203.9 million with an additional reserve related to valuation risks of $2.0 million.

As of September 30, 2022, Park had $5.7$3.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of PPP loans which were included in the commercial, financial and agricultural portfolio segment. These loans are guaranteed by the SBA and thus have not been reserved for using the same methodology as the rest of Park’s loan portfolio. A 10 basis point reserve at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was calculated for these loans to reflect minimal credit risk.

Other Income

Items Impacting Comparability

From time to time, revenue, expenses, and/or taxes are impacted by items judged by management of Park to be outside of ordinary banking activities and/or by items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that their outsized impact is believed by management of Park at that time to be infrequent or short-term in nature. Most often, these items impacting comparability of period results relate to merger and acquisition activities and revenue and expenses related to former Vision Bank loan relationships. In other cases, they may result from management's decisions associated with significant corporate actions outside of the ordinary course of business.

Income Tax
 
Income tax expense was $9.4$6.2 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 20222023 and consisted of federal income tax expense of $9.0$6.4 million and state income tax expensebenefits of $341,000.$234,000, as the result of a refund. This compares to income tax expense of $8.1$7.7 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 20212022 which consisted of federal income tax expense of $7.9$7.4 million and state income tax expense of $264,000.$305,000. The effective income tax rate for the thirdfirst quarter of 20222023 was 18.2%15.5%, compared to 18.6%16.5% for the same period in 2021. Income tax expense was $24.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and consisted of federal income tax expense of $23.8 million and state income tax expense of $987,000. This compares to income tax expense of $25.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 which consisted of federal income tax expense of $24.9 million and state income tax expense of $793,000. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was 17.7%, compared to 18.0% for the same period in 2021.2022.

The difference between the statutory federal corporate income tax rate of 21% and Park's effective income tax rate reflects permanent tax differences, primarily consisting of tax-exempt interest income from municipal investments and loans, qualified affordable housing and historical tax credits, bank owned life insurance income, and dividends paid on the common shares held within Park's salary deferral planKSOP, offset by the impact of state income taxes. Park expects permanent federal income tax differences for the 20222023 year will be approximately $7.0$6.7 million.

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 capital markets, the investment securities portfolio, the core deposit base, FHLB borrowings and the capability to securitize or package loans for sale.

Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital ratios for banks, thrifts and bank holding companies. Park has elected not to include the net unrealized gain or loss on debt securities AFS in computing regulatory capital. Park has adopted the Basel III regulatory capital framework as approved by the federal banking agencies. Under the Basel III regulatory capital framework, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and stock repurchases, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, Park must hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The amounts shown below as the adequately capitalized ratio plus capital conservation buffer include the 2.50% buffer. The Federal Reserve Board has also adopted capital requirements Park must maintain to be deemed "well capitalized" and remain a financial holding company.

Park and PNB met each of the well capitalized ratio guidelines applicable to them at September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. The following table indicates the capital ratios for PNB and Park at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021.2022.

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 79 of Park’s 20212022 Form 10-K (Table 39) for disclosure concerning contractual obligations and commitments at December 31, 2021.2022. There were no other significant changes in contractual obligations and commitments during the first ninethree months of 2022.2023.
 
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 it does 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.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Management reviews interest rate sensitivity on a quarterly 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. With the rise in interest rates experienced throughout 2022 and continuing into 2023, Park is now more exposed to an adverse impact to earnings in a down rate environment. Management actively monitors changes in the sensitivity position and has ample tools to adjust exposure as needed. As a result, management expects further changes in interest rates to have a modest impact on net income.
 
On page 78 (Table 38) of Park’s 20212022 Form 10-K, management reported that Park’s twelve-month cumulative rate sensitivity gap was a positive (assets exceeding liabilities) $1,895.3$1,087 million or 21.70%11.9% of total interest earning assets at December 31, 2021.2022. At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, Park’s twelve-month cumulative rate sensitivity gap was a positive (assets exceeding liabilities) $1,245.3$860.3 million or 13.62%9.44% of total 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 79 of Park’s 20212022 Form 10-K, management reported that at December 31, 2021, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would increase by 7.5% using a rising interest rate scenario and decrease by 15.1% using a declining interest rate scenario over the next year. At September 30, 2022, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would increase by 5.8%3.7% using a rising interest rate scenario and decrease by 5.4% using a declining interest rate scenario over the next year. At March 31, 2023, the earnings simulation model projected that net income would increase by 2.6% using a rising interest rate scenario and would decrease by 8.8%3.2% in a declining interest rate scenario. At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, management continues to believe that it has the tools necessary to mitigate gradual changes in interest rates (50 basis points per quarter for a total of 200 basis points per year) such that the overall impact to net income will be modest.
 
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, 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 September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 (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, Secretary and Treasurer have concluded that:
 
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 accumulated and communicated to Park’s management, including its principal executive officer and its 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 September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 (the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.       Legal Proceedings

    ThereWe are noroutinely engaged in various litigation and other legal matters. These include defending against claims of improper loan, deposit account, and other banking practices, as well as trust and investment, intellectual property, contract, and other legal matters, and we have a number of unresolved lawsuits and open matters 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 subsidiariesresolution. In addition, we are parties to litigation involving the collection of delinquent accounts, challenges to security interests in collateral, foreclosure lawsuits, and similar matters which are part of, or incidental to, their respective businesses. Park considers noneour ordinary course of those proceedingsbusiness. While the ultimate liability with respect to these matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, we believe that losses, damages, or liabilities, if any, and other amounts relating to pending matters are not likely to be material.material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations. Reserves are established for these various litigation and other legal matters, when appropriate under FASB ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, based in part upon the advice of legal counsel.

Item 1A.     Risk Factors
 
There are certain risks and uncertainties in our business that could cause Park's actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. In “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” of Part I of Park’s 20212022 Form 10-K, we included a detailed discussion of our risk factors. In the first quarter of 2023, we identified one additional risk factor and updated an existing risk factor, described below. All of these risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating Park's business and in connection with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Any of the risks described in Park's 20212022 Form 10-K or in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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.

The impact of larger or similar-sized financial institutions encountering problems may adversely affect Park's business, earnings and financial condition.

Park is exposed to the risk that when a peer financial institution experiences financial difficulties, there could be an adverse impact on the regional banking industry and the business environment in which Park operates. The recent bank failures of Silicon Valley Bank in California, Signature Bank in New York, and First Republic Bank in California during the first and second quarters of 2023 have caused a degree of panic and uncertainty in the investor community and among bank customers generally. While Park does not believe that the circumstances of these three banks' failures are indicators of broader issues with the banking system, the failures may reduce customer confidence, affect sources of funding and liquidity, increase regulatory requirements and costs, adversely affect financial markets and/or have a negative reputational ramification for the financial services industry, including Park. Park will continue to monitor the ongoing events concerning these three banks as well as any future potential bank failures and volatility within the financial services industry generally, together with any responsive measures taken by the banking regulators to mitigate or manage potential turmoil in the financial services industry.

We may become subject to additional requirements and restrictions imposed by the DOJ.

On February 28, 2023, Park National Bank reached an agreement with the DOJ to increase the efforts of Park National Bank to promote home lending in the Columbus, Ohio market. The agreement, which is reflected in the consent order filed on February 28, 2023, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, Western Division (the “DOJ Consent Order”) and approved on March 2, 2023 by that Court, serves to voluntarily resolve all claims of the U.S. alleging that Park National Bank’s mortgage lending practices within the Columbus, Ohio Metropolitan Statistical Area violated the Fair Housing Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.

In accordance with the terms of the DOJ Consent Order, Park National Bank will invest a minimum of $7.75 million over five years in a loan subsidy fund to increase credit opportunities for home mortgage loans, home improvement loans, home refinance loans and home equity loans and lines of credit for consumers applying for loans in majority-minority census tracts ("MMCTs") in Fairfield, Franklin, Hocking, Licking, Morrow and Perry counties in Ohio (the “Columbus Lending Area”). Park National Bank will also devote a minimum of $500,000 over five years toward one or more community development partnership programs that provide services to residents of MMCTs in the Columbus Lending Area related to credit, financial education, homeownership and foreclosure prevention; and at least $750,000 over five years toward advertising, community outreach, consumer financial education and credit counseling in the Columbus Lending Area. Park National Bank will also establish one new mortgage loan production office and one new full-service branch in MMCTs in the Columbus Lending Area and hire four lenders, one of whom will be Spanish-speaking, focused on serving these communities. In addition, Park National

Bank will continue to maintain, throughout the term of the DOJ Consent Order, Park National Bank’s full-time Director of Community Home Lending and Development position, who will oversee Park National Bank’s lending in MMCTs in the Columbus Lending Area.

Park is committed to investing at least $9.0 million over five years and will record the related expenses incurred in the
period in which the associated activities occur.

Although Park and Park National Bank are committed to full compliance with the DOJ Consent Order, achieving such compliance will require significant management attention from Park and may cause Park to incur unanticipated costs and expenses. Actions taken to achieve compliance with the DOJ Consent Order may affect Park’s financial performance and may require us to reallocate resources away from existing businesses or to undertake significant changes to our businesses, operations, products and services, and risk management practices. In addition, Park and Park National Bank could be subject to other enforcement actions relating to the alleged violations resolved by the DOJ Consent Order
