CLEARFIELD, PA --(Marketwired - January 20, 2017) - CNB Financial Corporation ("CNB") (
Joseph B. Bower, Jr., President and CEO of CNB Bank, stated, "While it was a difficult decision to transition from the Mt. Hope area, the logistics of having one remote location so far from the rest of our market area made it clear we had to do something. Finding First Federal to take over will be very good for the community. They are dedicated to Holmes County and will really aid in the development of Mt. Hope."
"We are very excited about this opportunity to expand our Holmes county presence," said Trent Troyer, President of First Federal. "We have been well-received in the Berlin and Mt. Hope area since opening our Berlin office in August 2009, and believe this addition to our bank will significantly improve our ability to service our existing and new customers. Our experience with individuals and businesses in this area has been tremendous, and we are appreciative of the customers that have chosen to bank with us. They have demonstrated strong work ethic and character traits as well as excellent business and entrepreneurial skills. We welcome the customers of the Mt. Hope office into the First Federal family."
Consummation of the branch sale is subject to a number of closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all required regulatory approvals, and is expected to be completed on or before May 31, 2017.
