FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

CNB FINANCIAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES THE FORMATION OF HOLIDAY FINANCIAL SERVICES CORPORATION

Sidman, PA – November, 2005

 

William F. Falger, President and CEO of CNB Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: CCNE), announced today the Corporation’s entry into the consumer discount loan and finance business with the formation of Holiday Financial Services Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of CNB Financial Corporation.

 

Holiday Financial Services Corporation began operations on November 7, 2005, in Sidman, Pennsylvania by purchasing the performing loans of Holiday Consumer Discount Company which had previously operated in the Sidman area since 1965. The Corporation offers its customers both secured and unsecured consumer loans, sales finance products and associated credit insurance products.

 

In commenting on this new venture Mr. Falger stated, “The decision to enter the consumer finance arena was driven by the opportunity to serve a significant segment of the market that is often not able to obtain readily accessible financing.”

 

“Starting with this one office, the Corporation plans to open additional locations during 2006 and begin building a viable franchise,” Mr. Falger went on to say, “We believe this new venture has excellent earnings potential in the years ahead and will be a nice complement to the existing business line of our consolidated group.”
