The year 2012 produced the best earnings performance that Central National Bank has ever had in a single year with a net of $9.3 million. The bank had record earnings in the trust department as well as an outstanding year for the mortgage banking division.

“We are very pleased with our results during 2012,” President and Chief Executive Officer Ed. C. Rolfs said. “We have weathered a challenging economic period in recent years, and it’s a significant milestone to finish the year with a record income total. In addition to strong earnings, our reserves and capital are also robust.”

CNB reported total assets of $890 million as of Dec. 31. Chief Financial Officer Jim Van Slyke reported the bank continues to benefit from its capital strength.

CNB has 32 bank locations in 21 communities across Kansas and Nebraska, including Marion and Hillsboro.
