NEWARK, Ohio, Oct 19, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- PRK | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Park National Corporation (Park) (NYSE Amex:PRK) today announced operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, including record earnings for Ohio-based operations for the first three quarters of the year. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, Park reported net income of $19.2 million and $61.9 million, respectively. Net income per diluted common share was $1.25 for the third quarter of 2009 and was $4.10 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

The third quarter of 2008 included a goodwill impairment charge of $55.0 million at Vision Bank, resulting in a net loss of $38.4 million, or $2.75 per diluted common share. For the first three quarters of 2008, Park reported net income of $2.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share. Absent the goodwill impairment charge, Park's net income for the third quarter 2008 would have been $16.6 million, or $1.19 per diluted common share. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $57.7 million, or $4.14 per diluted common share, prior to the impairment charge.

"We are especially pleased with the continued record performance of our Ohio-based operations," said Park Chairman C. Daniel DeLawder. "Our strong earnings are a direct result of consistent and dedicated personal attention delivered by our associates. Current technology, up-to-date deposit services and reliable home loans combined with extraordinary local service are all reasons why people trust us to keep our promises."

Net income for Park's Ohio-based operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $79.0 million, an increase of $6.0 million from the $73.0 million reported for the same period in 2008.

Park's Board of Directors declared a $0.94 per common share quarterly cash dividend. The dividend is payable on December 10, 2009 to common shareholders of record as of November 25, 2009.

Park's net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2009 totaled $9.7 million or an annualized 0.84 percent of average loans outstanding. This compares to net loan charge-offs of $12.8 million or an annualized 1.15 percent of average loans outstanding for the same period in 2008.

Park's loan loss provision for the third quarter of 2009 was $15.0 million, compared to $15.9 million for the third quarter of 2008. Park subsidiary Vision Bank (headquartered in Panama City, Fla.) had a third quarter 2009 loan loss provision of $10.0 million, compared to $11.5 million for the same period in 2008. The Ohio-based operations had a loan loss provision of $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2008.

Park continues to proactively address the impact of current economic conditions within the loan portfolio through increases in the allowance for loan losses. As of September 30, 2009, the loan loss allowance was $110.0 million, an increase of 9.9 percent over the balance of $100.1 million at December 31, 2008. Non-performing loans were $207.2 million at September 30, 2009, compared to $206.6 million at June 30, 2009 and $162.4 million at December 31, 2008. For the three month period ended September 30, 2009, Park's classified commercial loans, the type that represent the largest risk of potential future loss, declined by 6.0 percent.

Park experienced $123.8 million loan growth (or 3.7 percent annualized) for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. Park also reported continued deposit growth for the same period, with $353.2 million (or 9.9 percent annualized) growth in deposits.

"We have experienced excellent deposit growth in 2009, which has helped fund solid loan growth throughout the year," DeLawder said. "Additionally, home loan origination and refinance activity have been exceptional throughout 2009." Park originated $531 million in fixed rate residential mortgages through September 30, 2009, compared to $134 million for the same period in 2008.

"Strong financial performance puts us in a unique position to help even more families take advantage of recently lowered home loan rates. It's a great time to borrow money," DeLawder added.

Park continued its disciplined approach within the At-the-Market common stock offering. Through September 30, 2009, it has sold 288,272 common shares at an average price of $60.83. Net of all selling and due diligence expenses, the offering has generated additional capital of $16.7 million.

Headquartered in Newark, Ohio, Park National Corporation holds $7.0 billion in total assets (as of September 30, 2009). Park consists of 13 community bank divisions and two specialty finance companies. Park's Ohio-based banking operations are conducted through Park subsidiary The Park National Bank and its divisions which include Fairfield National Bank, Richland Bank, Century National Bank, First-Knox National Bank, Farmers and Savings Bank, United Bank, Second National Bank, Security National Bank, Unity National Bank and The Park National Bank of Southwest Ohio & Northern Kentucky.
