F. Brad Denardo, National Bankshares Chairman, President and CEO stated, “The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic poses an unprecedented challenge to our world, to our nation, and to our local communities. Our priority is helping our customers and our communities get through this crisis while protecting the health and well-being of our employees and the people we serve.”

Mr. Denardo added, “Our first quarter results continue to reflect the underlying strength of our business model, with gains in total assets, net loans, and interest income. Despite the economic uncertainties presented by COVID-19, National Bankshares remains strong and well-capitalized. We are confident that our balance sheet strength will allow us to meet the credit and liquidity needs of our customers and community during this critical period.”

He continued, “The large addition to the Allowance for Loan Losses, up to the maximum amount allowed by bank policy, is indicative of the Company’s evaluation of its exposure to the possibility of increased loan losses related to the COVID-19 pandemic. We have further identified industry segments that are most impacted by the pandemic and are monitoring them closely.”

“The nation’s banks play an essential role in times of crisis, and this is a responsibility we take very seriously,” said Mr. Denardo. “We are working with customers directly and through emergency programs such as the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program to help them navigate and survive the current economic upheaval. We are also taking all necessary precautions to protect public health while continuing to serve our customers. All of our branch offices have switched to drive-through only service with lobby service available for special needs. We are encouraging customers to use our online banking, mobile banking and ATM networks to safely conduct their everyday transactions. Internally, we have reduced office occupancy and facilitated telework whenever possible. I am very proud of our employees, who are working hard under extraordinary circumstances to follow health and safety guidelines while making sure our customers’ financial needs are met. And we are thankful for our customers and shareholders, who continue to support National Bankshares during these challenging times.”
