National Bankshares, Inc. Reports Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2025

BLACKSBURG, VA., January 22, 2026 -- National Bankshares, Inc. (“the Company”) (Nasdaq: NKSH), parent company of The National Bank of Blacksburg (“the Bank”) and National Bankshares Financial Services, Inc., today announced its results of operations through the fourth quarter of 2025. The Company reported net income of $15.83 million or $2.49 per diluted common share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025. This compares with net income of $7.62 million or $1.24 per diluted common share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. For the three month period ended December 31, 2025, the Company reported net income of $5.88 million or $0.92 per diluted common share. This compares with net income for the three month period ended December 31, 2024 of $3.08 million or $0.48 per diluted common share. National Bankshares, Inc. ended December 31, 2025 with total assets of $1.82 billion.

Lara E. Ramsey, President and CEO, commented, "National Bankshares performed well in 2025, with net income up by $8.2 million over the previous year. Higher loan yields and lower deposit costs drove net interest margin improvement and delivered the vast majority of 2025’s net income gains.”

Ms. Ramsey continued, “In 2025, we successfully implemented key elements of our long-term strategy. Our core systems conversion is already delivering enhancements in customer experience and has empowered our ability to offer innovative new products and services. Our new branch facilities in Roanoke and Lynchburg open the door for expansion in markets with dynamic economies. In 2026 and beyond, we remain committed to growing value for our customers and our shareholders while elevating our brand as the bank of choice in the communities we serve."

Comparability

The Company acquired Frontier Community Bank ("FCB") on June 1, 2024. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, periods prior to June 1, 2024 have not been restated and do not include assets acquired, liabilities assumed or results of operations related to FCB prior to acquisition. On the date of merger, the transaction increased the Company's stockholders' equity by $14.3 million and added loans of $118.7 million, goodwill of $4.9 million, core deposit intangibles of $2.1 million, and customer deposits of $129.7 million. More information about assets acquired and liabilities assumed is provided in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K.

During the second quarter of 2025, the Company reclassified certain deposit products between savings deposits and time deposits, and made other minor reclassifications. Prior periods are presented on a comparable basis.

Highlights

Net Interest Income

The net interest margin improved when the fourth quarter of 2025 is compared with the third quarter of 2025 and when the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are compared, due to lower deposit costs and higher loan yields.

Noninterest Income

During the fourth quarter of 2025, other income increased due to dividends from certain equity method investments and higher insurance and investment commissions when compared with the third quarter of 2025. Noninterest income during the third quarter of 2025 reflected receipt of an incentive payment recorded in credit and debit card fees, a large estate fee included in trust income, and higher income from the Bank's secondary market mortgage operation. When comparing the

twelve month periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, incentive payments reflected in credit and debit card fees, higher insurance and securities commissions recorded in other income and growth in trust income drove the year-over-year increase.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased when the fourth quarter of 2025 is compared with the third quarter of 2025 due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense and data processing expense. When comparing the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, higher noninterest expense is reflective of both the core system conversion and operations of the combined Company, which include the acquired operations of FCB. Noninterest expense in 2024 includes merger expenses related to the FCB acquisition.

Securities and Borrowings

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company invested $35 million in securities and fully repaid borrowings as of December 31, 2025. Analysis as of December 31, 2025 did not indicate credit risk concerns with any of the Company’s securities.

Deposits Deposits increased from the end of the third quarter to December 31, 2025. Company’s depositors within its market areas are diverse and include individuals, businesses and municipalities. The Company does not have any brokered deposits. Depositors are insured up to the FDIC maximum of $250 thousand. Municipal deposits, which account for 23.0% of the Company’s deposits, have additional security from bonds pledged as collateral, in accordance with state regulation. Of the Company’s non-municipal deposits, approximately 19.75% are uninsured.

Liquidity

The Company’s liquidity position remains solid. The Company maintains borrowing lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve that provide substantial borrowing capacity. Combined with a low loan-to-deposit ratio, positive results of the latest liquidity stress testing and success of deposit marketing, the Company believes it is well positioned to meet foreseeable liquidity demands.

Loans and Credit Quality

Loans decreased from September 30, 2025, primarily driven by large payoffs in commercial real estate loans. The Company is positioned to continue to make every loan that meets its underwriting standards. Loan metrics continue to reflect low credit risk, with low charge-off and past due levels. The Company's measurement of credit risk resulted in a recovery to the allowance for credit losses on loans for the fourth quarter of 2025, reflecting an improvement in certain economic factors.

Stockholders’ Equity

The Company paid a semiannual dividend of $0.78 to shareholders on December 1, 2025, resulting in a total dividend for 2025 of $1.51 per share. Stockholders’ equity increased when December 31, 2025 is compared with September 30, 2025 due to net income and improvement in unrealized losses on available for sale securities, which are reflected, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Accumulated other comprehensive loss is excluded from the Bank’s regulatory capital and does not affect regulatory capital ratios. The Bank is considered well capitalized, with capital ratios substantially higher than minimum regulatory requirements, and meets all requirements for borrowing from the FHLB.

  • The return on average assets and return on average equity are calculated by annualizing net income and dividing by average period-to-date assets or equity, respectively. The Company does not annualize certain income and expense items that are significant and may not be indicative of near-term future expected activity. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this release.
  • The efficiency ratio is calculated as noninterest expense divided by the sum of noninterest income and net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis. Noninterest income and noninterest expense are adjusted for any unusual items. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this release.
  • Tangible common equity and tangible assets exclude goodwill and intangible assets of $12,208 as of December 31, 2025, $12,297 as of September 30, 2025 and $12,581 as of December 31, 2024. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this release.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

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. 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.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document include the net interest margin, the efficiency ratio, the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on average equity. For periods that are shorter than twelve months, the Company annualizes net income for the return on average assets and return on average equity. In order to prevent distortion, the Company does not annualize certain income and expense items that are significant and may not be indicative of near-term future expected activity.

The following tables present calculations underlying non-GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated.
