Item 2.02 - Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 26, 2015, Park National Corporation (“Park”) issued a news release (the “Financial Results News Release”) announcing financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. A copy of this 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 and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. 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 and other intangible assets 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 and other intangible assets 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 shareholders' equity less goodwill and intangible assets, in each case at period end. Tangible assets equals total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets, 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 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 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, shareholders' equity to total assets and book value per share, respectively, as determined by GAAP.

SEPH's financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 included net recoveries of $2.8 million. The net recoveries during 2015 consisted of charge-offs of $127,000, offset by recoveries of $2.9 million from loans previously charged off. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 at SEPH of $1.4 million was largely related to net gains on the sale of loans of $722,000, net gains on sale of OREO and other OREO income of $736,000 and non-yield loan fee income of $180,000, offset by OREO devaluations of $210,000. The $4.3 million decline in other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was primarily the result of declines in (1) legal fees of $3.8 million, (2) management and consulting fees of $400,000 and (3) other OREO expense of $384,000, offset by a $770,000 increase in reserves established for potential mortgage loan repurchases.
On February 16, 2012, when Vision merged with and into SEPH, the loans then held by Vision were transferred to SEPH by operation of law at their fair value and no allowance for loan loss is carried at SEPH. The loans included in both the performing and nonperforming portfolios have been charged down to their fair value. The table below provides additional information for SEPH regarding charge-offs as a percentage of the unpaid principal balance, as of September 30, 2015.

In addition to the SEPH assets listed above, PNB participations in legacy Vision assets totaled $9.9 million, $11.5 million, and $12.3 million at September 30, 2015, December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively.

SEPH had net recoveries of $2.8 million, PNB had net charge-offs of $2.9 million, and GFSC had net charge-offs of $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, resulting in net charge-offs of $1.5 million for Park. Provision for loan losses at Park of $5.6 million which is $4.1 million higher than net-charge-offs of $1.5 million were primarily the result of overall loan growth and specific reserves established on impaired commercial loans.
