Item 2.02 - Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 23, 2018, Park National Corporation (“Park”) issued a news release (the “Financial Results News Release”) announcing financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. A copy of the Financial Results News Release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
Park's management uses certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate Park's performance. Specifically, management reviews return on average tangible equity, return on average tangible assets, tangible equity to tangible assets and tangible book value per share. Management has included in the Financial Results News Release information relating to the annualized return on average tangible equity, annualized return on average tangible assets, tangible equity to tangible assets and tangible book value per share for the three months ended and at June 30, 2018, March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017. For purposes of calculating the annualized return on average tangible equity, a non-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 during the applicable period. For the purpose of calculating the annualized return on average tangible assets, a non-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 during the applicable period. For the purpose of calculating tangible equity to tangible assets, a non-GAAP financial measure, tangible equity is divided by tangible assets. Tangible equity equals total shareholders' equity less goodwill, in each case at period end. Tangible assets equals total assets less goodwill, in each case at period end. For the purpose of calculating tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure, tangible equity is divided by the number of common shares outstanding at period end. Management believes that the disclosure of return on average tangible equity, return on average tangible assets, tangible equity to tangible assets and tangible book value per share presents additional information to the reader of the consolidated financial statements, which, when read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with 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 Financial Results News Release, 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 and tangible assets to total assets solely for the purpose of complying with SEC Regulation G and not as an indication that return on average tangible equity, return on average tangible assets, tangible equity to tangible assets and tangible book value per share are substitutes for return on average equity, return on average assets, total shareholders' equity to total assets and book value per share, respectively, as determined in accordance with GAAP.

The category “Parent Company” above excludes the results for SEPH, an entity which is winding down commensurate with the disposition of SEPH's nonperforming assets. Management considers the “Ongoing operations” results, which exclude the results of SEPH, to reflect the business of Park and Park's subsidiaries going forward. The discussion below provides additional information regarding the segments that make up the “Ongoing operations”, followed by additional information regarding SEPH.
During the first quarter of 2018, Park adopted ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This ASU requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost. This ASU is required to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. As a result of the adoption of this ASU, all prior periods have been recast to separately record the service cost component and other components of net benefit cost. For Park, this resulted in an increase in other income and an offsetting increase in other expense with no change to net income.
During the first quarter of 2018, Park adopted ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Changes reflected in the current U.S. GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. As a result of the adoption of this ASU, Park recorded an increase of $1.9 million to beginning retained earnings and a $995,000 increase to beginning accumulated other comprehensive loss. Additional income of $3.2 million and $1.3 million was recorded in other income in the first and second quarters of 2018, respectively, as the result of changes to the accounting for equity investments.

Net interest income of $124.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented a $8.8 million, or 7.7%, increase compared to $115.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was the result of a $7.6 million increase in interest income and a $1.2 million decrease in interest expense.
The $7.6 million increase in interest income was due to a $6.2 million increase in interest income on loans, along with a $1.4 million increase in interest income on investments. The increase in interest income on loans was the result of higher yields on loans. The yield on loans was 4.74% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 4.53% for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Included in interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $817,000 in interest income, related to PNB participations in legacy Vision Bank ("Vision") assets.
The $1.2 million decrease in interest expense was due to a $4.3 million increase in interest expense on deposits offset by a $5.5 million decrease in interest expense on borrowings. The increase in interest expense on deposits was partially the result of a $87.9 million, or 2.0%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits from $4.29 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2017, to $4.37 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Additionally, the cost of deposits increased by 19 basis points from 0.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to 0.59% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in interest expense on borrowings was the result of a decrease in long-term debt. During the fourth quarter of 2017, Park utilized excess cash to repay $350 million of long-term debt which matured during November 2017. The effective interest rate on the repaid long-term debt had been 3.22%.
The provision for loan losses of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented a decrease of $3.7 million, compared to $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Refer to the “Credit Metrics and Provision for (Recovery of) Loan Losses” section for additional details regarding the level of the provision for (recovery of) loan losses recognized in each period presented above.
Other income of $42.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented an increase of $2.3 million, or 5.8%, compared to $39.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The $2.3 million increase was primarily related to a $1.3 million increase in gains on sale of OREO, net, a $1.5 million increase in fiduciary income, a $486,000 increase in gains on sale of assets, net, a $498,000 increase in other components of net periodic benefit income, a $339,000 increase in other service income, and a $583,000 increase in check card fee income, offset by a $2.3 million net loss on sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and a $547,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts.
Other expense of $97.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented an increase of $6.7 million, or 7.4%, compared to $90.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The $6.7 million increase was primarily related to a $3.0 million increase in salaries expense, a $1.8 million increase in employee benefits expense, a $887,000 increase in furniture and equipment expense, a $358,000 increase in state tax expense, a $259,000 increase in non-loan related losses which are included in miscellaneous expense, and a $307,000 increase in occupancy expense, offset by a $418,000 decrease in other insurance.
Federal income tax expense of $11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented a decrease of $5.7 million compared to $17.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease in federal income tax expense was largely due to a decrease in the corporate federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018.
PNB's results for the first six months of 2018 and 2017, and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, included income and
expense related to participations in legacy Vision assets. The impact of these participations on particular items within PNB's income and expense for these fiscal periods is detailed in the table below:

The net interest income (expense) for Park's parent company included, for all periods presented, interest income on subordinated debt investments in PNB, which were eliminated in the consolidated Park National Corporation totals. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, the net interest income (expense) included interest income on loans to SEPH (paid off on December 14, 2016). Additionally, net interest income (expense) for all periods except the first and second quarters of 2018 and the first half of 2018, included interest expense related to the $30.00 million of 7% Subordinated Notes due April 20, 2022 issued by Park to accredited investors on April 20, 2012, which Park prepaid in full (principal plus accrued interest) on April 24, 2017.
Other income of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented an increase of $4.5 million compared to other loss of $103,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The $4.5 million increase was largely due to a $4.3 million increase in income related to certain equity securities.
Other expense of $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented an increase of $875,000, or 20.3%, compared to $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The $875,000 increase was primarily related to an increase of $608,000 in salaries expense and an increase of $582,000 in professional fees and services, primarily related to the acquisition of NewDominion Bank, which was effective July 1, 2018, offset by a $316,000 decrease in state tax expense.

SEPH holds the remaining assets and liabilities retained by Vision subsequent to the sale of the Vision business on February 16, 2012. Prior to holding the remaining Vision assets, SEPH held OREO assets that were transferred from Vision to SEPH. This segment represents a run-off portfolio of the legacy Vision assets.

Net interest income increased to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $483,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was the result of an increase in interest payments received from SEPH impaired loan relationships.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, SEPH had net recoveries of loan losses of $500,000, compared to net recoveries of loan losses of $647,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
The $3.6 million increase in other income for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily the result of a $2.8 million increase in gains on sale of OREO and a $1.0 million increase in loan fee income as a result of payments received from SEPH impaired loan relationships.
The $810,000 increase in other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, was the result of a $1.2 million increase in management and consulting fees resulting from the collection of payments on certain SEPH impaired loan relationships during 2018, offset by a $435,000 decrease in legal fees.
Legacy Vision assets at SEPH totaled $4.5 million as of June 30, 2018, compared to $18.8 million at December 31, 2017 and $19.4 million at June 30, 2017. In addition to these SEPH assets, PNB participations in legacy Vision assets totaled $2.5 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $9.0 million at December 31, 2017 and $9.1 million at June 30, 2017.

Note: The table above includes only those loans at PNB and GFSC, as these are the entities that have an allowance for loan loss balance. The table in the "Asset Quality Information" section of the financial information included with the Financial Results News Release, includes all Park loans (including those at SEPH) and thus shows slightly different information.
The allowance for loan losses of $49.5 million at June 30, 2018 represented a $536,000, or 1.1%, decrease compared to $50.0 million at December 31, 2017. This decrease was the result of a $1.2 million decrease in general reserves, offset by a $712,000 increase in specific reserves. The decrease in general reserves was largely the result of a decline in loan balances.

operational issues stemming from and/or capital spending necessitated by, the potential need to adapt to industry changes in information technology systems on which Park and our subsidiaries are highly dependent; fraud, scams and schemes of third parties; the impact of widespread natural and other disasters, pandemics, dislocations, civil unrest, terrorist activities or international hostilities on the economy and financial markets generally or on us or our counterparties specifically; demand for loans in the respective market areas served by Park and our subsidiaries; the risk that the businesses of PNB and NewDominion Bank will not be integrated successfully following the recently-completed merger transaction involving Park, PNB and NewDominion Bank (the "NewDominion Transaction") or such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; expected revenue synergies and cost savings from the NewDominion Transaction may not be fully realized within the expected timeframe; revenues following the NewDominion Transaction may be lower than expected; customer and employee relationships and business operations may be disrupted by the NewDominion Transaction; Park issued equity securities in the NewDominion Transaction, and may issue equity securities in connection with future acquisitions, which could cause ownership and economic dilution to Park's current shareholders; and other risk factors relating to the banking industry as detailed from time to time in Park's reports filed with the SEC including those described in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of Part I of Park's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
