FARMERS NATIONAL BANC CORP OH

The Company is exposed to risk when other financial institutions experience financial difficulties which could have an adverse impact on the banking industry environment in which the Company operates. The collapses of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank have caused uncertainty in the investor community and banking customers. While the Company does not believe that the circumstances of these three bank failures are indicators of broader issues within the banking system, the failures may reduce customer confidence, affect sources of funding and liquidity, increase regulatory requirements and costs, adversely affect financial markets and/or have a negative reputational ramification for the financial services industry, including the Company. The Company will continue to monitor the ongoing events concerning these three banks as well as any future potential bank failures and volatility within the financial services industry generally, together with any responsive measures taken by the banking regulators to mitigate or manage potential turmoil in the financial services industry.
