F.N.B. Corporation is a diversified financial services company headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and the parent holding company of First National Bank, which traces its roots to 1864. The company trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “FNB.” [1]
Design and History
The F.N.B. Corporation visual identity has evolved through several distinct marks, each documented in U.S. trademark filings. The earliest registered emblem, filed in 2002 and registered in 2003 under Registration Number 2726003, depicted a flag and handshake design. The trademark record describes the mark as including stars, a handshake, and American flag imagery. [2]
In 2009, the company registered a related mark for “FIRST NATIONAL BANK” under Registration Number 3663100. The USPTO filing describes the mark as consisting of “Stars, stripes, a handshake, the colors red, white and blue and the words ‘FIRST NATIONAL BANK’.” The colors red, white, and blue were claimed as features of the mark. [3]
In 2021, F.N.B. Corporation filed a new trademark application for a flag design in blue and red, with the color claim limited to blue and red. [4] A companion application filed the same year described the mark as “the terms FIRST NATIONAL BANK in blue lettering, with a flag design in blue and red to the right.” [5]
In 2022, F.N.B. Corporation filed additional trademark applications for both “F.N.B.” and “FIRST NATIONAL BANK” word and design marks. The filings describe “a flag and handshake design in blue and red and the term F.N.B. in blue lettering to the right.” [6] [7]
Most recently, in June 2026, F.N.B. Corporation filed a new trademark application for a stylized mark described as “a stylized red and blue flag with five five-pointed stars on the upper left side and four wavy red stripes,” with the blue letters “F.N.B.” at the bottom. The color claim covers blue and red, with white representing background or transparent areas and not a feature of the mark. [8]
Meaning and Symbolism
The flag motif has been a consistent element across F.N.B. Corporation’s trademarked marks since at least 2002. The handshake element, present in the earlier registrations, was described in the 2011 trademark filing for “FIRST NATIONAL BANK PRIVATE BANKING GROUP” as “a stylized depiction of the top left corner of an American flag with five stars and two hands shaking one another, wherein the sleeve of the right hand breaks off into the three stripes of the flag.” [9]
The most recent 2026 filing retains the flag and five-star motif but drops the handshake element, presenting a simplified stylized flag with wavy red stripes. [8]
Typography and Design
The trademark filings document the lettering style of the marks. The 2022 applications describe “F.N.B.” in blue lettering positioned to the right of the flag and handshake design. [6] The 2026 application places the blue letters “F.N.B.” at the bottom of the stylized flag design. [8] No specific typeface or font has been documented in the available trademark records.
