National Bankshares, Inc. Reports Income for the Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

BLACKSBURG, VA., October 21, 2021 -- National Bankshares, Inc. **** (NASDAQ: NKSH), parent company of The National Bank of Blacksburg, today announced its results of operations for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company reported net income of $15.13 million, or $2.42 per common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This compares to net income of $11.13 million, or $1.71 per common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. National Bankshares, Inc. ended the nine months ended September 30, 2021 with total assets of $1.64 billion.

"We are pleased to report that your Company delivered solid results again for the period ended September 30, 2021,” said F. Brad Denardo, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Bankshares. “Net income was up significantly over the same period last year, with the low cost to fund deposits and a partial reversal of loan loss reserves greatly improving our net interest income. Good loan growth and increased fee income for the period were also very encouraging, as we continue to meet the financial service needs of our customers and communities while enhancing profitability. As always, our success would not be possible without your investment in National Bankshares, and we thank you for your continued support.”

Highlights for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

Paycheck Protection Program Loans

- We participated in the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) which began in April 2020. The Company assisted local businesses through the PPP by providing 1,259 loans totaling $83.02 million. Gross PPP loans totaling $12.80 million remain on the balance sheet.
- For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, contractual interest earned on PPP loans totaled $253 thousand, while net fees recognized totaled $1.78 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, contractual interest earned on PPP loans totaled $263 thousand and net fees recognized totaled $509 thousand.
--- ---

Income Statement

- Net income of $15.13 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 benefitted from the reversal of a portion of previous loan loss provisions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recovered $338 thousand, compared with a provision expense of $1.99 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
- The return on average assets and the return on average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were 1.25% and 10.36% respectively, improved from 1.07% and 7.61% respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
--- ---
- The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.69% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to 0.30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the result of reductions in deposit offering rates.
--- ---
- The Company experienced high levels of calls on securities and loan refinance activity that resulted in a decrease in the yield on earning assets^(1)^ to 3.03% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, from 3.47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
--- ---
- Our net interest margin^(1)^ for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 2.81%, down from 2.98% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
--- ---
- Fees and interest income from PPP loans helped increase our net interest margin. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, PPP loans increased average loans by $32.29 million and added $2.03 million in interest and fee income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, PPP loans increased average loans by $32.56 million and added $772 thousand in interest and fee income. If PPP loans are excluded, the net interest margin would have been 2.64% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2.91% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

- Total noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was up $461 thousand, or 7.94%, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

**^(1)^**Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures that provide useful information for financial and operational decision making, evaluating trends, and comparing financial results to other financial institutions. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document include the efficiency ratio and the net interest margin, which is presented on a fully taxable-equivalent (“FTE”) basis. Efficiency ratio is calculated as noninterest expense, less non-recurring items, divided by the sum of noninterest income and net interest income on an FTE basis. FTE basis is calculated using the federal statutory income tax rate of 21%. The Company believes certain non-GAAP financial measures enhance the understanding of its business and performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and not a substitute for, or more important than, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to those reported by other financial institutions.

(2) The return on average assets and return on average equity are calculated by annualizing net income and dividing by average year-to-date assets or equity, respectively. When net income includes certain nonrecurring items, the annualization factor magnifies their effect. In order to reduce distortion, the Company removes from net income certain non-recurring items prior to annualization, applies the annualization factor to the adjusted net income and then adds back the items to annualized net income.
--- ---
(3) The net interest margin is calculated by dividing annualized taxable equivalent net interest income by total average earning assets. Because a portion of interest income earned by the Company is nontaxable, the tax equivalent net interest income is considered in the calculation of this ratio. Tax equivalent net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit realized from interest income that is nontaxable to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. The tax rate utilized in calculating the tax benefit is 21%.
--- ---
(4) The efficiency ratio is calculated as noninterest expense divided by the sum of noninterest income, less non-recurring items, and net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis.
