Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC and in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Because this report is based on an interim period, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

In the opinion of management of the registrant, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the three month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and the results of operations for the periods presented. The financial performance reported for CNB Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") for the three month and six months ended June 30, 2021 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. This information should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 Form 10-K"). All dollar amounts are stated in thousands, except share and per share data and other amounts as indicated. Certain amounts appearing in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.

Risks and Uncertainties

Risks and Uncertainties

The worldwide spread of COVID-19 has created significant uncertainty in the global economy. There have been no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effects the global COVID-19 pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the related government responses impact the Corporation’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided and future results could differ.

The Corporation's business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. If the global response to contain the COVID-19 pandemic requires further restricted measures or is unsuccessful, the Corporation could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Since the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts its operations will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, the Corporation cannot estimate the impact on its business, financial condition or near or long-term financial or operational results with reasonable certainty. Accordingly, the Corporation is disclosing potentially material items of which it is aware.

Asset valuation: Currently, the Corporation does not expect the COVID-19 pandemic to affect its ability to account timely for the assets on its balance sheet; however, this could change in future periods due to any number of potential impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic could cause a decline in the Corporation's stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform a goodwill impairment test, resulting in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that the Corporation concludes that all or a portion of its goodwill is impaired, a non-cash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital.

Credit: The Corporation is working with customers directly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Corporation has offered assistance in accordance with regulator guidelines. As a result of the current economic slowdown related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Corporation is engaging in more frequent communication with borrowers to better understand their situation and the challenges faced, allowing it to respond proactively as needs and issues arise.

Determining the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses on loans is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Subsequent evaluations of the then-existing loan portfolio, in light of the factors then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance for credit losses on loans in those future periods. Should economic conditions worsen, the Corporation could experience further increases in its required allowance for credit losses and record additional provision expense. It is possible that the Corporation's asset quality measures could worsen at future measurement periods if the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are prolonged.
