Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2025
$ in thousands, except per share data
Note 1: General and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The consolidated financial statements of National Bankshares, Inc. (“NBI”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The National Bank of Blacksburg (the “Bank” or “NBB”) and National Bankshares Financial Services, Inc. (“NBFS”) (collectively, the “Company”), conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to general practices within the banking industry. All intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated. The accompanying interim period consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements, have been included.
Application of the principles of GAAP and practices within the banking industry require management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statement; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements may reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently rely more extensively on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such may have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses on loans and acquisition accounting.
The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year or any other interim period. The interim period consolidated financial statements and financial information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Form 10-K”). The Company’s significant accounting policies followed in preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 1 of the Company's 2024 Form 10-K. All amounts and disclosures included in this quarterly report as of December 31, 2024, were derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. Certain items in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on prior year net income or stockholders’ equity. The Company posts all reports required to be filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on its web site at www.nationalbankshares.com.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is closely monitoring risks that may impact its business, including inflation, along with U.S. monetary policy maneuvers to manage inflation. Inflation and U.S. monetary policy maneuvers to reduce it may impact the Company’s customers’ demand for banking services and ability to qualify for and/or repay loans. These risks could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, credit risk, asset valuations and capital position.
Recently Adopted Accounting Developments
ASU 2023-09
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, which is greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income by the entity’s applicable statutory rate, on an annual basis. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes and the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by individual jurisdictions that are equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). Lastly, the amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign. ASU 2023-09 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2025 and applies to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2024-03
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” ASU 2024-03 requires public
companies to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, specific information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. This includes disclosing amounts related to employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. In addition, public companies will need to provide qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2025-01, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date”, which amends the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in ASU 2024-03 in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. Implementation of ASU 2024-03 may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Note 2: Business Combination
On June 1, 2024 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed its acquisition of Frontier Community Bank ("FCB"), a Virginia chartered commercial bank headquartered in Waynesboro, Virginia, in accordance with the definitive merger agreement entered on January 23, 2024, by and among the Company, the Bank and FCB. Upon completion of the merger, FCB merged with and into the Bank. Each share of FCB common stock was converted into either $14.48 in cash or 0.4250 shares of the Company’s common stock, with FCB shareholders having the ability to elect the merger consideration to be received, subject to the allocation and proration procedures set forth in the FCB Merger Agreement. The Company issued 464,855 shares of common stock and paid cash consideration of $2,050 to former FCB shareholders in the acquisition. As a result of the transaction, the Bank expanded its operations into the Waynesboro, Staunton and Lynchburg, Virginia markets.
The acquisition of FCB was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration paid were recorded at estimated fair value on the Acquisition Date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets was recorded as provisional goodwill and represents the benefit from the transaction that is not otherwise quantifiable, including expected management and operational synergies and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Company does not expect that any portion of goodwill will be deductible. Please refer to the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K, Note 22: Business Combination for additional information regarding the acquisition of FCB.

Collateral Dependent Loans
Loans are collateral dependent when repayment is expected substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Collateral dependent loans are individually evaluated. The Company measures the ACLL on collateral dependent loans based upon the fair value of the collateral. Fair value of the collateral is adjusted for liquidation costs/discounts. If the fair value of the collateral falls below the amortized cost of the loan, the shortfall is recognized in the ACLL. If the fair value of the collateral exceeds the amortized cost, no ACLL is required.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, three of the Company’s individually evaluated loans were collateral dependent and secured by real estate. The following table provides detail on collateral dependent loans as of the dates indicated:

Credit Quality
The Company categorizes loans by risk based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, including: collateral and financial information, payment history, credit documentation and current economic trends, among other factors. At origination, each loan is assigned a risk rating. Ongoing analysis of the loan portfolio adjusts risk ratings on an individual loan basis to reflect updated information. General descriptions of risk ratings are as follows:
The following tables present the amortized cost basis of the loan portfolio by year of origination, loan class and credit quality as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and gross charge-offs by year of origination for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024.

Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
On the date a loan is modified, the Company assesses whether the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. If the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, the loan is risk rated special mention or classified, as appropriate. If the loan exceeds $400, if it is placed in nonaccrual, or if foreclosure is probable, the loan is individually evaluated for the ACLL.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, no loans were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Two loans were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the first three months of 2024. These loans were modified again during the three month period ended September 30, 2024.
The following table presents information as of September 30, 2024 about loans modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The Company closely monitors the performance of loans that are modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. As of September 30, 2024, the loans were in current status and individually evaluated. There were no modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that had a payment default during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and that were modified in the twelve months prior. Default occurs when a payment is 90 days past due, the loan is fully or partially charged off or the Company forecloses on the collateral.
Consumer Real Estate Loans In Process of Foreclosure
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no consumer real estate loans in process of foreclosure. As of December 31, 2024, three consumer real estate loans totaling $37 were in process of foreclosure.

The Company evaluates securities available for sale that are in unrealized loss positions to determine whether the impairment is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Consideration is given to the extent to which the fair value is less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
At September 30, 2025, the Company had 534 securities with a fair value of $603,882 in an unrealized loss position. The Company reviews securities in an unrealized loss position to evaluate credit risk. The Company considers payment history, risk ratings from external parties, financial statements for municipal and corporate securities, public statements from issuers and other available credible published sources in evaluating credit risk. No credit losses were identified and no ACL on securities available for sale was recorded as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024. The unrealized losses are attributed to noncredit-related factors, including changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The Company does not have the intent to sell any of these securities and believes that it is
more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuers to settle the securities at a price less than the cost basis of the investments. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline.
The amortized cost and fair value of securities available for sale at September 30, 2025, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Mortgage-backed securities included in these totals are categorized by final maturity.

Realized Securities Gains and Losses
There were no sales of securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
Restricted Stock.
The Company held restricted stock of $3,748 as of September 30, 2025 and $1,848 as of December 31, 2024 included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a member of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), NBB is required to maintain certain minimum investments in the common stock of those entities. Required levels of investment are based upon NBB’s capital and a percentage of qualifying assets. The Company purchases stock from or sells stock back to the correspondents based on their calculations. The stock is held by member institutions only and is not actively traded.
Redemption of FHLB stock is subject to certain limitations and conditions. At its discretion, the FHLB may declare dividends on the stock. In addition to dividends, NBB also benefits from its membership with FHLB through eligibility to borrow from the FHLB, using as collateral NBB’s capital stock investment in the FHLB and qualifying NBB real estate mortgage loans totaling $515,009 at September 30, 2025. The Company’s management reviews for impairment based upon the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis of the FHLB stock, and at September 30, 2025, did not determine any impairment.

Note 6: Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of the observable inputs and minimize the use of the unobservable inputs. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:
Level 1 –
Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 –
Valuation is based on observable inputs including:
Level 3 –
Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.
Fair value is best determined by quoted market prices. However, in cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. Accounting guidance for fair value excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from disclosure requirements. Consequently, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company. The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Securities Available for Sale
Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2). The following tables present the balances of financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates indicated.
Fair Value Measurement Using
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
The Company’s securities portfolio is valued using Level 2 inputs. The Company relies on an independent third party vendor to provide market valuations. The inputs used to determine value include: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. The third party vendor also monitors market indicators, industry activity and economic events as part of the valuation process. Central to the final valuation is the assumption that the indicators used are representative of the fair value of securities held within the Company’s portfolio. Level 2 inputs are subject to a certain degree of uncertainty and changes in these assumptions or methodologies in the future, if any, may impact securities fair value, deferred tax assets or liabilities, or expense.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain financial instruments are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the consolidated financial statements.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. These loans currently consist of one-to-four family residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, the Company records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. No nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale at September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Collateral dependent loans are measured on a non-recurring basis for the ACLL. If the fair value of the collateral is lower than the loan’s amortized cost basis, the shortfall is recognized in the ACLL. When repayment is expected from the operation of the collateral, fair value is estimated as the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected from the sale of the collateral, fair value is estimated using measurement techniques discussed below and discounted by the estimated cost to sell. The ACLL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset.
For loans secured by real estate, fair value of collateral is determined by the “as-is” value of appraisals or third party evaluations that are less than 24 months of age. Appraisals are prepared by independent, licensed appraisers. Appraisals are based upon observable market data analyzed through an income or sales valuation approach. Valuation falls within Level 2 categorization. The Company may further discount appraisals for marketing strategies, which results in Level 3 categorization.
The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal (Level 2) if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’ financial statements (Level 3) if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3).
As of September 30, 2025, three commercial real estate loans totaling $8,791 were collateral dependent. Valuation was based upon outside appraisals (Level 2). None of the measurements resulted in a specific allocation. As of December 31, 2024, three commercial real estate loans totaling $9,259 were measured under the fair value of collateral method using third party appraisals (Level 2). None of the measurements resulted in a specific allocation.

Note 8: Revenue Recognition
Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Noninterest revenue streams such as service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges and fees, credit and debit card fees, trust income, and annuity and insurance commissions are recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as financial guarantees, derivatives, and certain credit card fees are outside the scope of the guidance. Noninterest revenue streams within the scope of Topic 606 are discussed below.
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts consist of monthly service fees, overdraft and nonsufficient funds fees, ATM fees, wire transfer fees, and other deposit account related fees. The Company’s performance obligation for monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. ATM fees are generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM. Wire transfer fees, overdraft and nonsufficient funds fees and other deposit account related fees are transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time.
Other Service Charges and Fees
Other service charges include safe deposit box rental fees, check ordering charges, ATM fees to holders of cards issued by other banks and other service charges. Safe deposit box rental fees are charged to the customer on an annual basis and recognized upon receipt of payment. The Company determined that since rentals and renewals occur fairly consistently over time, revenue is recognized on a basis consistent with the duration of the performance obligation. Check ordering charges, ATM fees to holders of cards issued by other banks and other service charges are transaction based and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized at a point in time.
Credit and Debit Card Fees
Credit and debit card fees are primarily comprised of interchange fee income and merchant services income. Interchange fees are earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa and MasterCard. Merchant services income mainly represents commission fees based upon merchant processing volume. The Company’s performance obligation for interchange fee income and merchant services income are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. In compliance with Topic 606, credit and debit card fee income is presented net of associated expense.
Trust Income
Trust income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and estates and other customer assets. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under management and the applicable fee rate. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. The Company does not earn performance-based incentives. Estate
26
management fees are based upon the size of the estate. A partial fee is recognized half-way through the estate administration and the remainder of the fee is recognized when remaining assets are distributed and the estate is closed.
Insurance and Investment
Insurance income primarily consists of commissions received on insurance product sales. The Company acts as an intermediary between the Company’s customer and the insurance carrier. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied upon the issuance of the insurance policy. Shortly after the insurance policy is issued, the carrier remits the commission payment to the Company, and the Company recognizes the revenue.
Investment income consists of recurring revenue streams such as commissions from sales of mutual funds, annuities and other investments. Commissions from the sale of mutual funds, annuities and other investments are recognized on trade date, which is when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation. The Company also receives periodic service fees (i.e., trailers) from mutual fund companies typically based on a percentage of net asset value. Trailer revenue is recorded over time, usually monthly or quarterly, as net asset value is determined.
The following presents noninterest income, segregated by revenue streams in-scope and out-of-scope of Topic 606, for the periods indicated:

Note 9: Leases
The Company categorizes leases as short-term, operating or finance leases. Leases with terms of 12 months or less are designated as short-term and are not capitalized. Operating and finance leases are capitalized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets, included in other assets, represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and are calculated as the sum of the lease liability and if applicable, prepaid rent, initial direct costs and any incentives received from the lessor. Lease liabilities, included in other liabilities, represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments and are presented at each reporting date as the net present value of the remaining contractual cash flows. Cash flows are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate in effect at the commencement date of the lease. The Company does not separate non-lease components from lease components within a single contract. Counterparties for the Company’s lease contracts are external to the Company and not related parties.
On June 1, 2024, the Company’s acquisition of FCB added two long-term branch leases. At the Acquisition Date, the leases were remeasured using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate and remaining lease terms, resulting in an increase of $548 to the right of use asset and the lease liability.
Lease payments
Short-term lease payments are recognized as lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, or for variable lease payments, in the period in which the obligation was incurred. Operating and finance lease payments may be fixed for the term of the lease or variable. If the escalation factor for a variable lease payment is known, such as a specified percentage increase per year or a stated increase at a specified time, the variable payment is included in the cash flows used to determine the lease liability. If the variable payment is based upon an unknown escalator, such as the consumer price index at a future date, the increase is not included in the cash flows used to determine the lease liability.
Options to Extend, Residual Value Guarantees, Restrictions and Covenants
Certain of the Company’s operating leases offer the option to extend the lease term and the Company has included such extensions in its calculation of the lease liabilities to the extent the options are reasonably certain of being exercised. The lease agreements do not provide for residual value guarantees and have no restrictions or covenants that would impact dividends or require incurring additional financial obligations.

Note 10: Stock Based Compensation
The Company’s 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (“the Plan”) provides for the grant of various forms of stock-based compensation awards that may be settled in, or based upon the value of, the Company’s common stock. The maximum number of shares available for issuance under the Plan is 120,000 shares. The restricted stock has voting rights and rights to dividends, which are paid upon vest date. For further information on the Plan, please refer to the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
Restricted Stock Awards
Under the Plan, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) were granted to non-employee directors as part of the semi-annual retainer and restricted stock units ("RSUs") were granted to certain executives. The RSAs and RSUs were valued at the closing stock price on the grant date and expensed over a one-year vesting period. Stock based compensation expense charged against income was $49 and $143 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $28 and $93 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, compensation expense of $105 related to the nonvested RSAs and RSUs is expected to be recognized over the coming 12 months. A summary of changes in the Company’s nonvested RSAs under the Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 follows:

Note 13 - Borrowings
During the third quarter of 2025, the Company borrowed $40,000 from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and $10,000 from the Federal Reserve Discount Window. The borrowings were part of a yield optimization strategy and the proceeds were used to purchase securities. The borrowings were structured to mirror expected cash flow from the securities portfolio through the end of 2026. All borrowings mature within the next 12 months and have a weighted average interest rate of 3.99% .

Income from NBFS is not significant at this time, nor is it expected to be so in the near future.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. Although the economics of the Company’s transactions may not change, the timing of events that would impact the transactions could change.
Critical accounting policies are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition or results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. If conditions occur that differ from our assumptions, depending upon the severity of such differences, the Company’s financial condition or results of operations may be materially impacted. The Company has designated the following policies as critical: those governing the allowance for credit losses, goodwill, the pension plan, core deposit intangibles and loans acquired in a business combination. The Company evaluates its critical accounting estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and updates them as needed. For information on the Company's critical accounting policies, please refer to the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K, Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
On June 1, 2024, the Company and the Bank acquired FCB, a Virginia chartered commercial bank headquartered in Waynesboro, Virginia. FCB’s balances and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated results beginning on June 1, 2024.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report refers to certain financial measures that are computed under a basis other than GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. The methodology for determining these non-GAAP measures may differ among companies. Non-GAAP measures are supplemental and not a substitute for, or more important than, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Details on non-GAAP measures follow.
Net Interest Margin
The Company uses the net interest margin (non-GAAP) to measure profitability of interest generating activities, as a percentage of total interest-earning assets. The Company’s net interest margin is calculated on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis. The portion of interest income that is nontaxable is grossed up to the tax equivalent by adding the tax benefit based on a tax rate of 21%. Annualized FTE net interest income is divided by total average earning assets to calculate the net interest margin. The following tables present the reconciliation of tax equivalent net interest income, which is not a measurement under GAAP, to net interest income, for the periods indicated:

Efficiency Ratio
The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of FTE net interest income and noninterest income, excluding certain items the Company’s management deems unusual or non-recurring. This is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes provides investors with important information regarding operational efficiency.

Adjusted Return on Average Assets and Adjusted Return on Average Equity
The adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on average equity are measures of profitability, calculated by annualizing net income and dividing by average year-to-date assets or equity, respectively. Significant income or expenses that are unusual or not expected to recur during the year are not annualized, in order to reduce distortion within the ratios. The tables below present the reconciliation of adjusted annualized net income, which is not a measurement under GAAP, for the periods indicated.

Performance Summary
Key to understanding the Company’s results of operations and financial position is the acquisition of FCB in 2024, the impact of the interest rate environment and the core system conversion completed during the second quarter of 2025 that will enhance efficiency, product offerings and future growth.
The acquisition of FCB on June 1, 2024 expanded the Company's footprint into desirable markets and increased its growth potential. The acquisition added to the balance sheet $118,743 in loans, $129,717 in deposits and $14,299 in equity. The Company also recorded merger expenses detailed under Non-GAAP Financial Measures above.
The Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts between September 2024 and September of 2025 eased deposit pricing pressure beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024. The interest rate environment continues at a level that allows adjustable rate loans to reprice higher than their previous rates.
The Company completed the core system conversion of both the acquired bank and the legacy bank during the second quarter of 2025, with related expenses presented in core system conversion expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The following table presents the Company’s key performance indicators for the periods indicated:

Summary Key Performance Indicators
Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased when compared with the comparable periods of 2024, due to net interest margin expansion and merger related expenses in 2024. The net interest margin as well as key noninterest income and expense items are discussed below.

When the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are compared, the yield on earning assets increased and the cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased, improving the net interest margin. The Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts between September 2024 and September 2025 immediately reduced expense for deposits with pricing based on the prime interest rate. Current interest rates are still at a level that will allow improved interest income as loans continue to reach repricing dates.
During the third quarter of 2025, the Company leveraged $50,000 in borrowings with a weighted average rate of 3.99% to purchase securities of $49,855 with a weighted average yield of 4.67%. The borrowings were structured to mirror expected cash flow from the securities portfolio over the following year. The strategy is part of the Company's focus on optimizing the net interest margin and earnings, with expectations for a lower interest rate environment in the future.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased when the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is compared with the comparable period of 2024, due to higher levels of deposits.
Other service charges and fees decreased when the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are compared with the comparable periods of 2024, primarily due to receipt of certain infrequent fee income in 2024.

Salaries and employee benefits, which include payroll taxes, health insurance, contributions to the employee stock ownership plan and employee 401(k), pension expense, incentives and salary continuation increased when the three month period ended September 30, 2025 is compared with the comparable period of 2024 due to normal merit increases. The increase in salaries and employee benefits when the nine month period ended September 30, 2025 is compared with the comparable period of 2024 reflects the addition of FCB employees.
Occupancy, furniture and fixtures expense increased when the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are compared with the comparable periods of 2024 due to additional assets acquired from FCB, higher maintenance costs, and the opening of the Roanoke branch.
Data processing expense decreased when the three months ended September 30, 2025 are compared with the comparable period of 2024, reflecting savings from the core system conversion.
FDIC assessment increased when the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are compared with the comparable periods of 2024 due to a larger assessment base.
Professional services include legal, audit and consulting expenses, which increased when the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are compared with the comparable periods of 2024 due to higher legal and audit expense.
Core system conversion expense primarily includes payments made to the former core system vendor to exit the contracts as well as other expenses associated with the core system conversion.
Other operating expenses increased when the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are compared with the comparable period of 2024. The category of other operating expenses includes expense for marketing and business development, supplies, non-service pension cost and charitable donations, among others. Included in various categories of noninterest expense are expenses to manage cybersecurity risk. The cost of these measures was $114 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and $92 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, total cybersecurity expense was $255 compared to $276 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company places high priority on cybersecurity. The decrease in expense when the nine month period ended September 30, 2025 is compared with the comparable period of 2024 resulted from renegotiation of contracts and licensing.
Income Tax
The Company’s income tax expense was $961 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to an expense of $550 for the same period in 2024.The Company's income tax expense was $1,989 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and effective tax rate was 16.67%.

For information on the Company’s policies on the ACLL, please refer to the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K, Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
The Company’s risk analysis as of September 30, 2025 determined an ACLL of $10,579, or 1.04% of loans net of deferred fees and costs. This compares with an allowance of $10,262 as of December 31, 2024, or 1.04% of loans. To determine the appropriate level of the ACLL, the Company considers credit risk for individually evaluated loans and for groups of loans evaluated collectively.
Individually Evaluated Loans
As of September 30, 2025, individually evaluated loans were $10,699. Three individually evaluated loans were collateral dependent but were adequately collateralized and did not result in an individual allocation. The remaining individually evaluated loans were measured using the discounted cash flow method, resulting in an allocation of $90.
As of December 31, 2024, individually evaluated loans were $10,521. Three individually evaluated loans were collateral dependent but were adequately collateralized and did not result in an individual allocation. The remaining individually evaluated loans were measured using the discounted cash flow method, resulting in an allocation of $80.
Collectively Evaluated Loans
Collectively evaluated loans totaled $1,006,246, with an ACLL of $10,489 as of September 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, collectively evaluated loans totaled $978,092, with an allowance of $10,182.
Collectively evaluated loans are divided into classes based upon risk characteristics. Utilizing historical loss information and peer data, the Company calculates probability of default ("PD") and loss given default ("LGD") for each class, which is adjusted for a reasonable and supportable forecast. Cash flow projections based on each loan’s contractual terms are modified by the adjusted PD and LGD for its class. Loan classes are allocated additional loss estimates based upon the Company’s analysis of qualitative factors including economic measures, asset quality indicators, loan characteristics, and changes to internal Company policies and management.
Reasonable and Supportable Forecast
The Company applies national unemployment forecasts to project cash flows. The Company determined that 12 months represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period as of September 30, 2025, and set a period of 12 months to revert to historical losses on a straight-line basis. The forecast applied as of September 30, 2025 projects that unemployment will slightly increase over the next 12 months at a lower level than the forecast applied as of December 31, 2024. The lower unemployment forecast decreased the required level of the ACLL when September 30, 2025 is compared with December 31, 2024.
Qualitative Factors: Economic
The Company sources economic data pertinent to its market from the most recently available publications, including business and personal bankruptcy filings, the residential vacancy rate and the inventory of new and existing homes.
Higher bankruptcy filings indicate heightened credit risk and increase the ACLL, while lower bankruptcy filings have a beneficial impact on credit risk. Compared with data available as of December 31, 2024, business and personal bankruptcies filings increased.
Residential vacancy rates and housing inventory are used to measure the housing market. The housing market directly or indirectly affects all loan classes. Higher vacancy and inventory levels increase credit risk. The residential vacancy rate available as of September
40
30, 2025 increased compared to the data incorporated into the December 31, 2024 calculation, resulting in a higher allocation. Housing inventory increased when September 30, 2025 is compared with December 31, 2024, resulting in a higher allocation.
The Company tracks economic news and data from its market to determine whether additional indicators should be considered in the allowance for credit losses. As of September 30, 2025, management identified local unemployment data for consideration. Historically, local unemployment has been slightly lower than national unemployment, but correlated in movement. However, for the most recent period local unemployment rose higher than national unemployment. The Company added an allocation to account for the change.
Qualitative Factors: Asset Quality Indicators
Accruing past due loans are analyzed at the class level and compared with previous levels. Increases in past due loans indicate heightened credit risk. Accruing loans past due 30-89 days were 0.27% of total loans as of September 30, 2025, decreased from 0.30% as of December 31, 2024.
Qualitative Factors: Other Considerations
The Company considers other factors that impact credit risk, including the interest rate environment, the competitive, legal and regulatory environments, changes in lending policies and loan review, changes in lending management, and high risk loans.
The interest rate environment impacts variable rate loans. The Company allocates additional reserve each time the Federal Reserve increases rates, under the expectation that higher payments may increase credit risk. After the rate increase has been in effect for one year, the allocation may be removed if management deems that the impact of the change has become integrated to the portfolio. As of September 30, 2025, no allocation was included for interest rate changes, unchanged from December 31, 2024.
The competitive, legal and regulatory environments were evaluated for changes that would affect credit risk. Higher competition for loans is deemed to increase credit risk, while lower competition is deemed to decrease credit risk. Prior allocations for the competitive and regulatory environments were evaluated and management determined that a sufficient period of time had passed so as to conclude that the impact is now integrated to loss rates, reducing the allocation. The legal environment remains in a similar posture to December 31, 2024, and no allocation was provided.
Lending policies, loan review procedures and management’s experience influence credit risk. Policies and procedures remain similar to those at December 31, 2024. The Company maintained an allocation to account for integration of FCB lenders.
Levels of high risk loans are considered in the determination of the level of the ACLL. A decrease in the level of high risk loans within a class decreases the required allocation for the loan class, and an increase in the level of high risk loans within a class increases the required allocation for the loan class. Total high risk loans increased from the level at December 31, 2024.
Unallocated Surplus
The unallocated surplus as of September 30, 2025 was $47, or 0.45% in excess of the calculated requirement. The unallocated surplus at December 31, 2024 was $50, or 0.49% in excess of the calculated requirement. The surplus provides some mitigation of uncertainty about events that may exist at the reporting date but that are not known to the Company and may impact credit risk.
Conclusion
The calculation of the appropriate level for the ACLL incorporates analysis of multiple factors and requires management’s prudent and informed judgment. Based on analysis of historical indicators, asset quality and economic factors, management believes the level of the ACLL is reasonable for the credit risk in the loan portfolio as of September 30, 2025.
ACL on Unfunded Commitments
The ACL on unfunded commitments was $288, or 0.16 % of unfunded commitments as of September 30, 2025. The ACL on unfunded commitments was $251, or 0.14% as of December 31, 2024.
Provision for (Recovery of) Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses represents charges to earnings necessary to maintain an adequate allowance. The adequacy of the ACLL is reviewed quarterly and adjustments are made as determined necessary. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $581 and a provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $36 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared with a provision for credit losses on loans of $1,312 and a recovery of $25 for unfunded commitments for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the three month period ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $259 and a provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $47. For the three month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $5 and a recovery of credit losses on unfunded commitments of $10.
Loan Modifications
In the ordinary course of business the Company modifies loan terms on a case-by-case basis for a variety of reasons. Modifications may include rate reductions, payment extensions of varying lengths of time, a change in amortization term or method or other arrangements. Modifications to consumer loans generally involve short-term payment extensions to accommodate specific, temporary circumstances. Modifications to commercial loans may include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rate, maturity, amortization and financial covenants.
The Company reviews each modification to determine whether the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, including indicators of default, bankruptcy, going concern, insufficient projected cash flows and inability to obtain financing from other sources. Please refer to Note 3: Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses in Part I, Item 1 of this report for more information on loans modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company modified loans in the normal course of business for borrowers who were not experiencing financial difficulty. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company modified 46 loans totaling $13,884. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company modified 414 loans totaling $55,739. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company provided 205 modifications to loans totaling $42,969 and 637 modifications totaling $86,905, respectively.

Liquidity
Liquidity measures the Company’s ability to meet its financial commitments at a reasonable cost. Demands on the Company’s liquidity include funding additional loan demand and accepting withdrawals of existing deposits. The Company has diverse liquidity sources, including customer and purchased deposits, customer repayments of loan principal and interest, sales, calls and maturities of securities, Federal Reserve discount window borrowing, short-term borrowing, and FHLB advances.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $260,395 of borrowing capacity from the FHLB and the Company had $188,090 of available capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $40,000 in FHLB borrowings with terms of one year or less and $10 million in Federal Reserve Discount Window borrowings with a term of less than three months.
The Company considers its security portfolio for typical liquidity needs, within accounting, legal and strategic parameters. Portions of the securities portfolio are pledged to meet state requirements for public funds deposits. Discount window borrowings also require pledged securities. Increased/decreased liquidity from public funds deposits or discount window borrowings results in increased/decreased liquidity from pledging requirements. The Company monitors public funds pledging requirements and unpledged available for sale securities accessible for liquidity needs.
Regulatory capital levels determine the Company’s ability to use purchased deposits and the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. As of September 30, 2025, the Company is considered well capitalized and does not have any restrictions on purchased deposits or borrowing ability at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window.
The Company monitors factors that may increase its liquidity needs. Some of these factors include deposit trends, large depositor activity, maturing deposit promotions, interest rate sensitivity, maturity and repricing timing gaps between assets and liabilities, the level of unfunded loan commitments and loan growth. As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s liquidity is sufficient to meet projected trends.
To monitor and estimate liquidity levels, the Company performs stress testing under varying assumptions on credit sensitive liabilities and the sources and amounts of balance sheet and external liquidity available to replace outflows. The Company’s Contingency Funding Plan sets forth avenues for rectifying liquidity shortfalls. As of September 30, 2025, the analysis indicated adequate liquidity under the tested scenarios.
The Company utilizes several other strategies to maintain sufficient liquidity. Loan and deposit growth are managed to keep the loan to deposit ratio within the Company’s internally-set target range. As of September 30, 2025, the loan to deposit ratio was 65.07%.
The investment strategy takes into consideration the term of the investment, and securities in the available for sale portfolio are laddered based upon projected funding needs.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, NBB extends lines of credit and letters of credit to its customers. Depending on their needs, customers may draw upon lines of credit at any time in any amount up to a pre-approved limit. Financial letters of credit guarantee payments to facilitate customer purchases. Performance letters of credit guarantee payment if the customer fails to complete a specific obligation.
While it would be possible for customers to fully draw on approved lines of credit and for beneficiaries to call all letters of credit, historically this has not occurred. In the event of a sudden and substantial draw on these lines, the Company would be able to access multiple options, including its lines of credit with correspondents, raising additional deposits, or selling securities available for sale or loans. The Company estimates an ACL on unfunded loan commitments under the current expected credit losses model.
The Company sells mortgages on the secondary market. Our agreements with the purchasers provide for strict underwriting and documentation requirements. Violation of the representations and warranties of the agreement would entitle the purchaser to recourse provisions. The Company has determined that its risk in this area is not significant because of the low volume of secondary market mortgage loans and high underwriting standards. The Company estimates a potential loss reserve for recourse provisions that is not material as of September 30, 2025. To date, no recourse provisions have been invoked. If funds were needed, the Company would access the same sources as noted above for funding lines and letters of credit. There were no material changes in off-balance sheet arrangements during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Contractual Obligations
The Company had no finance lease or purchase obligations and no long-term debt at September 30, 2025.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the Company's management, including the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, the Company believes that no system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected.
