F.N.B. Corporation is a financial services corporation based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and the holding company for its largest subsidiary, First National Bank.

First National Bank was founded in Mercer County, Pennsylvania in 1864 under the name The First National Bank of West Greenville and operated out of the house of then Bank President, Samuel P. Johnston, in Greenville, Pennsylvania.
The bank remained a fixture in Mercer County through World War I, the Great Depression and World War II. In 1946, bank assets totaled approximately $2 million and the bank was still housed in one office.
Across the next three decades, the bank continued to grow, and in 1974, F.N.B. Corporation was established as a financial services holding company for a growing family of business entities which included the bank, under then name The First National Bank of Mercer County and with an asset size of $120 million, and Regency Finance Company.
Along with completing the acquisition of ten branch offices from First National Bank of Pennsylvania in July 1992, First National Bank of Mercer County acquired the name and formally changed its name to the current First National Bank of Pennsylvania. Around this time, the First National Bank of Western Pennsylvania in nearby New Castle changed its name to First Western Bank to avoid confusion; that bank is now part of Huntington Bancshares after several other mergers.
As of 2003, the company had grown to assets of $4.6 billion with more than 125 banking offices and began trading common shares on the under the ticker symbol “FNB.” Today, it is included in Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Index with the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) Regional Banks Sub-Industry Index.
