FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CNB FINANCIAL CORPORATION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS FOR 2004
Clearfield, Pennsylvania – October, 2004

CNB Financial Corporation, the parent company of County National Bank, today announced reported earnings of $2.0 million or $0.22 diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, compared to $2.4 million or $0.26 diluted earnings per share for the same quarter of 2003.

Year to date earnings for 2004 are $6.1 million compared to $6.7 million in the same period of 2003, impacted in part by a decline of $400,000 in fee income resulting from sharply lower mortgage lending activity.

William F. Falger, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our third quarter net income showed modest improvement over the first two quarters of the year primarily due to asset growth, however year to date income continues to lag behind last year due to the impact of the current low interest rate environment. We continue to focus on our future growth with the recent groundbreaking for a 3,500 square foot banking facility in Warren and a new 2,200 square foot branch in St. Marys, Pennsylvania.”
