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, and accounting standards that have been issued but were not effective for Park as of December 31, 2023:

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2022-02 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures: In March 2022, FASB issued ASU 2022-02 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. ASU 2022-02 eliminated the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, the amendments

in this ASU require that public business entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measured at Amortized Cost.

Park adopted ASU 2022-02 using the modified retrospective transition method on January 1, 2023. Park recorded a $383,000 increase to the ACL, a $303,000 decrease to retained earnings and an $80,000 increase to deferred tax assets as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASU 2022-02. Additionally, as a result of the adoption of this ASU and elimination of the concept of TDRs, total nonperforming loans decreased by $20.1 million effective January 1, 2023 and individually evaluated loans decreased by $11.5 million.

The adoption of ASU 2022-02 impacted disclosures in Note 5 - Loans and Note 6 - Allowance for Credit Losses.

SEC Cybersecurity Disclosures: In July 2023, the SEC voted to standardize disclosures about cybersecurity risk management, strategy, governance, and material cybersecurity incidents by public companies subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Current Report on Form 8-K has a new item, Item 1.05, and registrants are required to disclose under this Item 1.05 any cybersecurity incident that is deemed to be material and describe the material aspects of the incident's nature, scope, and timing, as well as its material impact, or reasonably likely material impact on a registrant, including its financial condition and results of operations. The Form 8-K filing is generally due four business days after a registrant determines that the cybersecurity incident is material.

Also, SEC Regulation S-K has a new item, Item 106, which requires registrants to describe, on an annual basis, the processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats as well as the material effects, or reasonably likely material effects, of risk from cybersecurity threats and previous cybersecurity incidents. Item 106 also requires registrants to describe the board of directors' oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats and management's role and expertise in assessing and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. These disclosures are required in the annual report on Form 10-K. Compliance with the material incident disclosure requirements in Item 1.05 of Form 8-K began on December 18, 2023 and the annual disclosures are to be provided beginning with annual reports for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2023. Management adopted the SEC cybersecurity rules on December 18, 2023 and has included the new annual disclosures in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

ASU 2023-06 - Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative: In October 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-06 - Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. ASU 2023-06 amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. ASU 2023-06 was issued in response to the SEC's August 2018 final rule that updated and simplified disclosure requirements. In the final rule, the SEC identified 27 disclosure requirements that were incremental to those in the ASC and referred them to the FASB for potential incorporation into US GAAP. To avoid duplication, the SEC intended to eliminate those disclosure requirements from existing SEC regulations if the FASB incorporated them into the relevant ASC subtopics. The disclosure requirements are currently included in either SEC Regulation S-X or SEC Regulation S-K. ASU 2023-06 adds 14 of the 27 identified disclosure or presentation requirements to the ASC.

For entities, like Park, that are subject to the SEC's existing disclosure requirements, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The amendments are to be applied prospectively and if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the ASC and will not become effective for any entity. Management intends to adopt the provisions of ASU 2023-06 on their respective effective dates. The adoption of the provisions of ASU 2023-06 is not expected to have a material impact on Park's consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2023-07 - Segment Reporting (Topic 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07 -Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 will require public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments' significant expenses on an interim and annual basis. Public entities will be required to disclose other segment items for each reportable segment and provide a description of its composition. Significant expense categories are derived from expenses that are regularly reported to an entity's chief operating decision-makers and included in a segments' reported measures of profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 will also require for an entity to disclose the title and position of the chief operating decision-maker and explain how the chief operating decision-maker uses the reported measures of profit or loss to assess segment performance. ASU

2023-07 also requires interim disclosures of certain segment-related disclosures that previously were required only on an annual basis and clarifies that entities with a single reportable segment are subject to both new and existing segment reporting requirements under Topic 280.

ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-07 requires entities to adopt the changes to the segment reporting guidance on a retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the provisions of ASU 2023-07 is not expected to have an impact on Park's consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2023-09- Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will require entities to disclose more detailed information in the reconciliation of their statutory tax rate to their effective tax rate. ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose more detailed information about income taxes paid, including by jurisdiction.

ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The adoption of the provisions of ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have an impact on Park's consolidated financial statements, but will impact disclosures.
