Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2024

(Unaudited)

$ 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 significant 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 requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgements that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgements 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 of credit losses on loans and acquisition accounting.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 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, 2023 ( “2023 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 2023 Form 10-K.  All amounts and disclosures included in this quarterly report as of December 31, 2023, 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.

In addition to applying significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 1 of the 2023 Form 10-K, the Company implemented accounting policies appropriate for its merger with Frontier Community Bank (“FCB”). Business combinations are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date measured at their fair values as of that date. To determine the fair values, the Company relies on internal or third-party valuations, such as appraisals, valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses, or other valuation techniques.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company identifies the acquirer and the closing date and applies applicable recognition principles and conditions. Acquisition-related costs are costs the Company incurs to effect a business combination. Those costs include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees. Some other examples of costs to the Company include systems conversions, integration planning consultants and advertising costs. The Company accounts for acquisition-related costs as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received, with one exception. The costs to issue debt or equity securities are recognized in accordance with other applicable GAAP. These acquisition-related costs have been and will be included within the consolidated statements of income classified within the noninterest expenses caption.

The most significant assessment of fair value in the Company’s accounting for business combinations relates to the valuation of an acquired loan portfolio. At acquisition, loans are classified as either (i) purchase credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) loans or (ii) non-PCD loans and are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition. PCD loans are those for which there is more than insignificant evidence of credit deterioration since origination. Fair values are determined primarily through a discounted cash flow approach which considers the acquired loans’ underlying characteristics, including account types, remaining terms, annual interest rates, interest types, timing of principal and interest payments, current market rates, and remaining balances. Estimates of fair value also include estimates of default, loss severity, and estimated prepayments.

At acquisition, an allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) for PCD loans is determined based upon the Company’s methodology for estimating the ACL on loans. This allowance is credited to the ACL on loans with a corresponding adjustment to the amortized cost basis of the loan on the date of the acquisition. The difference between the new amortized cost basis and the unpaid principal balance is either a noncredit discount or premium that is amortized or accreted to interest income over the remaining life of the loan. Disposals of PCD loans, which may include sale of loans to third parties, receipt of payments in full or in part from the borrower or foreclosure of the collateral, result in removal of the loan from the loan portfolio at its carrying amount.

For non-PCD loans, an ACL is established in a manner that is consistent with the Company’s originated loans. The ACL is determined using the Company’s methodology and the related ACL for non-PCD loans is recorded through a charge to the provision for credit losses in the period in which the loans are purchased or acquired. The entirety of any purchase discount or premium on non-PCD loans is amortized or accreted to interest income over the remaining life of the loan.

In accordance with ASC 805, the Company also identified intangible assets acquired. Other intangible assets lack physical substance but have contractual or other legal rights or are capable of being sold or exchanged either on their own or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability. Intangible assets are initially recorded at fair value. Determining fair value is subjective, requiring the use of estimates, assumptions and management judgment. Intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are subject to impairment testing.  Upon acquisition of FCB, the Company recognized a core deposit intangible asset, which represents the value of customer deposit relationships.  Core deposit intangible assets are amortized over an estimated useful life of 10 years using an accelerated method which approximates the estimated attrition of the acquired deposits.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is closely monitoring risks that may impact its business, including high inflation, along with U.S. monetary policy maneuvers to reduce 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.

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board 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. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 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, in accordance with the definitive merger agreement that was entered into on January 23, 2024, by and among the Company, the Bank and FCB. Upon completion of the merger, former FCB shareholders received a combination of common stock and cash.

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 will keep the measurement of goodwill open for twelve months following the Acquisition Date in order to reflect any adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed that may arise during the Company’s final review procedures of any updated information. The Company does not expect that any portion of goodwill will be deductible.

The following table presents the calculation of the purchase price and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities.

(1) The Company issued 464,855 shares of its common stock valued at $30.76 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on May 31, 2024, the last day of trading prior to the consummation of the acquisition.
--- ---
(2) Cash consideration was paid for shareholder elections, fractional shares and to settle outstanding vested stock options. The merger agreement provided for up to 10% of consideration to be paid in cash of $14.48 per FCB common share, at the shareholders’ election. Payments for shareholder elections and fractional shares totaled $1,769. Outstanding and vested options were settled at the difference between $14.48 and the strike price and totaled $281.

Management made significant estimates and exercised significant judgement in accounting for the acquisition of FCB. The following is a brief description of the valuation methodologies used to estimate the fair values of major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company utilized a valuation specialist to assist with the determination of fair values for certain acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

Cash and equivalents

Included in cash and equivalents are an investment in time deposits of other financial institutions, valued at the present value of the expected contractual payments discounted at market rates for instruments with similar terms.

Securities

The estimated fair value of the acquired portfolio of debt securities was based on quoted market prices. All of the acquired portfolio was sold upon completion of the acquisition.

Loans

The fair valuation process identified loans with credit risk indicators that qualified for “purchase credit deteriorated” (“PCD”) status. PCD and non-PCD loans were then evaluated for credit risk and other fair value indicators. Consistent with GAAP, FCB’s related allowance for credit losses on loans and deferred fees and costs were not recorded.

Credit risk was quantified using a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default(“LGD”) methodology from a market participant perspective and applied to each loan’s outstanding principal balance. PD/LGD rates were tailored to PCD or non-PCD status. Other fair value indicators were quantified using a discounted cash flow methodology, with discounts applied for current market rates, credit risk and liquidity. Cash flows were generated based upon the loans’ underlying characteristics and estimated prepayment speeds.

The following table provides information on PCD and non-PCD loans as of the Acquisition Date:

June 1, 2024 PCD Loans Non-PCD Loans
Number of loans **** 46 **** 498
FCB recorded value $ 11,157 $ 115,589
Discount for credit risk **** (295 ) **** (498 )
Discount for non-credit factors **** (527 ) **** (7,222 )
Fair value $ 10,335 $ 107,869

Premises and equipment

The fair value of premises acquired was based on a recent third-party appraisal. Acquired equipment was based on the remaining net book value of FCB, which approximated fair value.

Core Deposit Intangible

Core deposit relationships provide a stable source of funds for lending and contribute to profitability. The core deposit intangible was valued using an income approach focused on cost savings, which recognizes the cost savings represented by the expense of maintaining the core deposit base versus the cost of an alternative funding source. The valuation incorporates assumptions related to account retention, discount rates, deposit interest rates, deposit maintenance costs and alternative funding rates.

Leases: right of use asset, lease liability and fair value

Right of use assets (included in other assets) and lease liabilities (included in other liabilities) for branch locations were measured at the acquisition date. The fair value of leases was determined by applying a discounted cash flow methodology discounted by current lease rates within the appropriate market.

Deposits

Deposits were valued using methods appropriate to their characteristics. The fair value of noninterest bearing demand deposits, interest bearing demand deposits, money market and savings deposit accounts were assumed to approximate the carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. Time deposits were valued at the present value of the expected contractual payments discounted at market rates for instruments with similar terms.

Borrowings

The estimated fair value of borrowings was determined by obtaining payoff quotes from the lender. Borrowings were paid off upon completion of the acquisition.

Deferred Tax Asset

Application of fair value measurements resulted in an increase to the deferred tax asset, included in other assets.

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, as permitted by ASU 2016-13. 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 June 30, 2024, four of the Company’s individually evaluated loans were collateral dependent. As of December 31, 2023, three of the Company’s individually evaluated loans were collateral dependent. All collateral dependent loans were secured by real estate as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The following table details the amortized cost of the 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, historical payment experience, 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. Loans rated pass have acceptable credit quality. Loans rated special mention have potential weakness due to challenging economic or financial conditions. Loans rated classified have well-defined weaknesses that heighten the risk of default. The tables below present the loan portfolio by amortized cost basis, year of origination, loan class, credit quality, and charge-offs as of the dates indicated.

Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

The Company modifies loans for a variety of reasons. At the date of modification, the Company assesses whether the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. If the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, the loan’s risk rating is evaluated and is typically changed to special mention or classified, which results in individual evaluation of the loan for the ACLL. Two loans were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the first three months of 2024.  One of these loans was modified a second time during the three months ended June 30, 2024. There was one loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty that was modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

The following table presents information as of June 30, 2024 about loans modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

The Company closely monitors the performance of loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Both loans are in current status as of June 30, 2024.

There were no loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that had a payment default during the three or six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and were modified in the twelve months prior to that default. Default is determined at 90 or more days past due, upon charge-off, or upon foreclosure. Modified loans in default are individually evaluated for the allowance for credit losses or if the modified loan is deemed uncollectible, the loan, or a portion of the loan, is written off and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted accordingly.

Residential Real Estate Loans In Process of Foreclosure

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had two 1-4 family residential real estate loans totaling $123 in process of foreclosure. As of December 31, 2023, one 1-4 family residential real estate loan of $7 was 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 June 30, 2024, the Company had 566 securities with a fair value of $583,921 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 risk was found and no ACL on securities available for sale was recorded as of June 30, 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.

Restricted Stock.

The Company holds restricted stock that is reported separately from available for sale securities. 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 $503,383 at June 30, 2024. The Company’s management reviews for impairment based upon the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis of the FHLB stock, and at June 30, 2024, did not determine any impairment.

Realized Securities Gains and Losses

The Company initiated sale of FCB’s securities portfolio upon completion of the acquisition, and no gain or loss was recorded. During the first six months of 2023, the Company realized net securities losses of $3,332 on the sale of securities with an amortized cost basis of $46,850. The sales were part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy.

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:<br> <br>●    quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities,<br> <br>●    quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets,<br> <br>●    inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and<br> <br>●    model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.
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 carrying value of restricted Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and FHLB stock approximates fair value based upon the redemption provisions of each entity and is therefore excluded from the following tables. The following tables present the balances of financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates indicated.

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.

Interest Rate Loan Contracts and Forward Sale Commitment

The Company originates consumer real estate loans which it intends to sell to a correspondent lender. Interest rate loan contracts and forward sale commitments result from originating loans held for sale and are derivatives reported at fair value. The Company enters interest rate lock commitments with customers who apply for a loan which the Company intends to sell to a correspondent lender. The interest rate loan contract ends when the loan closes or the customer withdraws their application. Fair value of the interest rate loan contract is based upon the correspondent lender’s pricing quotes at the report date. Fair value is adjusted for the estimated probability of the loan closing with the borrower.

At the time the Company enters into an interest rate loan contract with a customer, it also enters into a best efforts forward sales commitment with the correspondent lender. If the loan is closed and funded, the best efforts commitment converts to a mandatory forward sales commitment. Fair value is based on the gain or loss that would occur if the Company were to pair-off the transaction with the investor at the measurement date. This is a Level 3 input. The Company measures and reports best efforts commitments at fair value.

Interest rate loan contracts and forward sale commitments are valued based on quotes from the correspondent lender at the reporting date. Pricing changes daily and if a loan has not been sold to the correspondent by the next reporting date, the fair value may be different from that reported currently. Changes in fair value measurement impacts net income.

As of June 30, 2024, one interest rate lock commitment gave rise to an asset for the interest rate loan contract and a liability for the forward sales commitment.  Funded loans gave rise to a liability for the forward sales commitment. The Company had one rate lock commitment as of December 31, 2023, resulting in an asset for the interest rate loan contract and a liability for the forward sales commitment, and one funded loan resulting in a forward sales commitment.  The following tables present information on the interest rate loan contracts and forward sale commitments as of the date indicated:

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. A liability of $1 for the fair value of loans held for sale was recorded as of June 30, 2024. No nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale at December 31, 2023.

Collateral Dependent Loans

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 June 30, 2024, one consumer real estate loan totaling $84 and three commercial real estate loans totaling $2,970 were collateral dependent. Valuation of the consumer real estate loan and two of the commercial real estate loans were based upon third party evaluations (Level 2). Valuation for one commercial real estate loan was based upon an internal evaluation (Level 3). 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 primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a 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.

Table of Contents

Other Service Charges and Fees

Other service charges include safe deposit box rental fees, check ordering charges, 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 are transactional 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 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.

OREO Gains and Losses

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of other real estate owned ("OREO") when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Company finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Company assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer.

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’s leases are recorded under ASC Topic 842, “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.

The following tables present information about leases as of the dates and for the periods indicated:

June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023

Note 10: Stock Based Compensation

The Company’s 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (“the Plan”) was approved by shareholders at the annual shareholders meeting on May 9, 2023. 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. For further information on the Plan, refer to the Company’s Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024 and the Company’s S-8 filed with the SEC on June 7, 2023.

Restricted Stock **** Awards

Under the Plan, non-employee directors receive restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) each June and December. The RSAs are valued at the closing stock price on the grant date and expensed over the one-year vesting period. Stock based compensation expense charged against income was $33 and $65 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, expense of $103 related to the nonvested RSAs 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 six months ended June 30, 2024 follows:

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 allowance for credit losses, goodwill and the pension plan, please refer to the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. For information on policies governing core deposit intangibles and loans acquired in a business combination, please refer to Note 1: General and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of this Form 10-Q report.

Acquisition of Frontier Community Bank

On June 1, 2024, the Company and the Bank acquired FCB, a Virginia chartered commercial bank headquartered in Waynesboro, Virginia.  FCB’s results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated results since the Acquisition Date, and accordingly the Company’s second quarter and first half of 2024 results reflect increased levels of average balances, net interest income, and expense compared to the prior quarter and first half of 2024 results.

The acquisition was made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated January 23, 2024, by and among the Company, the Bank and FCB under which FCB merged with and into the Bank (the “FCB Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the FCB Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the acquisition, 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 $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. Please refer to Note 2: Business Combination in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information of the acquisition of FCB.

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 to measure profit on 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. The components of the efficiency ratio calculation for the periods indicated are summarized in the following table.

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. Larger nonrecurring income or expenses are not annualized, in order to reduce distortion within the ratios.

Interest income and the yield on earning assets continues to grow in response to the Federal Reserve’s interest rate increases between March 2022 and July 2023. Many of the Company’s loans are adjustable with repricing dates in the future. If rates remain at the current level or do not decrease substantially, the Company expects that repricing will continue to contribute to improved interest income.

The competitive pressure for deposits that first began affecting the Company in the first quarter of 2023 and increased throughout 2023 has moderated, but continues to contribute to higher cost of funds and compressed net interest margin when results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are compared with the same periods of 2023. The Company continuously monitors its deposit base and funding costs. Further information on the Company’s funds management and deposit strategy is discussed under the Deposits section below.

Ratio of nonperforming assets to loans, net of unearned income and deferred fees and costs, plus other real estate owned **** 0.25 % 0.44 % 0.31 %
Ratio of ACLL to nonperforming loans **** 418.91 % 345.56 % 345.91 %

For information on the Company’s policies on the ACLL, please refer to the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

The Company’s risk analysis as of June 30, 2024 determined an ACLL of $10,502, or 1.06% of loans net of unearned income and deferred fees and costs. This compares with an allowance of $9,094 as of December 31, 2023, or 1.06% 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

Individually evaluated loans were $13,471 as of June 30, 2024, a slight increase from $10,544 as of December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, four 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 $644.

Collectively Evaluated Loans

Collectively evaluated loans totaled $976,427, with an ACLL of $9,858 as of June 30, 2024. At December 31, 2023, collectively evaluated loans totaled $846,631, with an allowance of $8,522.

Collectively evaluated loans are divided into classes based upon risk characteristics. Utilizing historical loss information and peer data, the Company calculates a probability of default and loss given default 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 probability of default and loss given default 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 June 30, 2024, and set a period of 12 months to revert to historical losses on a straight-line basis. The forecast applied at June 30, 2024 projects that unemployment will rise over the next 12 months, to a slightly higher level than the forecast applied as of December 31, 2023. The higher unemployment forecast increased the required level of the ACLL when June 30, 2024 is compared with December 31, 2023.

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 at December 31, 2023, business bankruptcy filings remained the same while personal bankruptcy filings increased slightly.

Residential vacancy rates and housing inventory impact the Company’s residential construction customers and the consumer real estate market. Higher levels increase credit risk. The residential vacancy rate available at June 30, 2024 increased from the data incorporated into the December 31, 2023 calculation. Housing data available as of June 30, 2024 showed higher inventory than at December 31, 2023, resulting in a higher allocation.

41


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 0.25% of total loans at June 30, 2024, an increase from 0.19% at December 31, 2023.

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 Federal Reserve’s interest rate increases between March 2022 and July 2023 have increased and are expected to continue to increase payments on the Company’s variable rate loans as they reach contractual repricing dates. Higher payments may increase credit risk. The Company allocates additional reserve each time the Federal Reserve increases rates. After the rate increase has been in effect for one year, the allocation may be removed under the assumption that the impact of the change has become integrated to the portfolio. As of June 30, 2024, the Company reduced its allocation from the December 31, 2023 allocation to reflect improvement in inflationary pressures.

The competitive, legal and regulatory environments were evaluated for changes that would affect credit risk. Higher competition for loans increases credit risk, while lower competition decreases credit risk. Competition remained at similar levels to those at December 31, 2023. The legal and regulatory environments also remain in a similar posture to December 31, 2023.

Lending policies, loan review procedures and management’s experience influence credit risk. Policies and procedures remain similar to those at December 31, 2023. The Company added an allocation to account for absorption of FCB acquired loans and 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, 2023.

Unallocated Surplus

The unallocated surplus as of June 30, 2024 is $400, or 3.96% in excess of the calculated requirement. The unallocated surplus at December 31, 2023 was $350, or 4.00% in excess of the calculated requirement. The surplus provides some mitigation of current economic uncertainty that 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. The Company augmented the calculated requirement with an unallocated surplus. Based on analysis of historical indicators, asset quality and economic factors, management believes the level of ACLL is reasonable for the credit risk in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2024.

ACL on Unfunded Commitments ****

The ACL on unfunded commitments was $251, or 0.14% of unfunded commitments as of June 30, 2024.  The ACL on unfunded commitments was $259, or 0.16% as of December 31, 2023..

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 considered necessary. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $1,307 and a recovery of credit losses on unfunded commitments of $15 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared with provision for credit losses on loans of $12 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and a recovery of $9 for unfunded commitments. Upon acquisition of FCB in June 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $1,290 to establish an allowance on non-PCD loans.

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.

42


The Company reviews modifications 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. If a modification is made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the loan’s risk rating is downgraded to special mention or classified, resulting in individual evaluation for the ACLL. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company modified one loan totaling $7 for a borrower who was experiencing financial difficultly. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company modified two loans totaling $6,403 for borrowers who were experiencing financial difficulty. Both loans were individually evaluated for the ACLL in previous periods and as of June 30, 2024, using the discounted cash flow methodology. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company modified one loan totaling $6,396 for a borrower who was experiencing financial difficulty. The loan was individually evaluated using the discounted cash flow methodology for the ACLL as of June 30, 2023.

Modifications for Borrowers Who Were Not Experiencing Financial Difficulty

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company modified loans in the normal course of business for borrowers who were not experiencing financial difficulty. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company modified 216 loans totaling $21,704. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company modified 432 loans totaling $43,936. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company provided 194 modifications to loans totaling $11,528. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company provided 395 modifications to loans totaling $42,036.

Securities available for sale are presented at fair value as of each reporting date. The fair value of bonds moves inversely to interest rate changes and expectations of interest rate changes. Most of the Company’s securities were purchased during periods prior to the Federal Reserve’s interest rate increases that began in March of 2022. The Company’s analysis of the securities portfolio determined no identifiable credit risk as of June 30, 2024 and no ACL has been recorded. Please refer to Note 1: General and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the 2023 Form 10-K and Note 4: Securities in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information on the securities portfolio.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss **** (68,354 ) (64,866 ) **** (5.38 )%
Total stockholders’ equity $ 148,963 $ 140,522 **** 6.01 %

The increase in stockholders’ equity reflects the stock consideration issued to acquire FCB. The Company paid dividends to shareholders in June 2024.

The Company qualifies as a small bank holding company under the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement, which exempts bank holding companies with less than $3 billion in assets from reporting consolidated regulatory capital ratios and from minimum regulatory capital requirements. NBB is subject to various capital requirements administered by banking agencies, including an additional capital conservation buffer in order to make capital distributions or discretionary bonus payments. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated in compliance with OCC rules based on the Basel III Capital Rules. The Bank’s ratios are well above the required minimums as of June 30, 2024. Capital ratios for NBB are shown in the following tables.

NBB Regulatory<br> <br>Capital Minimum<br> <br>Ratios Regulatory Capital Minimum<br> <br>Ratios with Capital<br> <br>Conservation Buffer
Common Equity Tier I Capital Ratio **** 16.32 % 4.50 % 7.00 %

Total Capital Ratio **** 17.19 % 8.00 % 10.50 %
Leverage Ratio **** 11.40 % 4.00 % 4.00 %

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 June 30, 2024, the Company had $297,917 of borrowing capacity from the FHLB and an unsecured federal funds line of credit with an unaffiliated bank of $10,000, with no amounts advanced against those lines. Additionally, the Company had $180,278 of unused capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. Periodically during 2023, the Company accessed FHLB borrowings. The advances were fully repaid, due to the success of the Company’s deposit strategy. As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have purchased deposits, discount window borrowings or short-term borrowings.

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 June 30, 2024, 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 June 30, 2024, 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 June 30, 2024, 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 June 30, 2024, the loan to deposit ratio was 60.14%. 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.

45


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 ("CECL") model.

The Company sells mortgages on the secondary market. Our agreement with the purchaser provides 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 a 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 June 30, 2024. 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 six months ended June 30, 2024.

Contractual Obligations

The Company had no finance lease or purchase obligations and no long-term debt at June 30, 2024.

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. In conducting the evaluation of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, the Company has excluded the operations of FCB as permitted by the guidance issued by the Office of the Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission (not to extend more than one year beyond the date of the acquisition or for more than one annual reporting period). The merger was completed on June 1, 2024. See "Note 2. Business Combinations" for further discussion of the merger and its impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2024 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 June 30, 2024, 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.

Exhibit 10(i)

ADVISORY SERVICES AGREEMENT

THIS ADVISORY SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Alan J. Sweet (the “Consultant”) and National Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 1, 2024, to be effective immediately following the Effective Time (as defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated January 23, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, The National Bank of Blacksburg, the Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary (the “Bank”) and Frontier Community Bank) (the “Effective Date”).
