"We are pleased to report a record fourth quarter of financial performance, as well as a record year. We spent 2025 integrating the Touchstone family and operations into our company, with a major focus on customer retention. The addition of experienced bankers in our Richmond, Roanoke, and Staunton markets helped support our net loan growth in the fourth quarter. We delivered a strong return to our shareholders as we increased our quarterly dividend in the fourth quarter 9.7% and grew our per share tangible book value 14% - all of which helped drive a stock price increase of 9.7% for the year. We are extremely pleased to deliver a double-digit return for our shareholders in 2025," said Scott C. Harvard, President and Chief Executive Officer of First National.

Net accretion income related to acquisition accounting was $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a 6-basis point incremental increase to the net interest margin.
The quarterly impact of acquisition accretion and amortization in 2025 is reflected in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Earning asset yields for the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased 2-basis points to 5.24% compared to the third quarter of 2025. Loan accretion increased in the fourth quarter compared to the prior quarter. For the fourth quarter of 2025, net interest income was $19.0 million, an increase of $657 thousand from $18.3 million in the third quarter of 2025 due to a slight increase in net accretion income combined with a decrease in interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities.
ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The Company recorded a $951 thousand provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $193 thousand for the third quarter of 2025. The fourth quarter provision was comprised of a $923 thousand provision for credit losses on loans and a $28 thousand provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. Net charge-offs totaled $651 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to net charge-offs of $939 thousand in the third quarter of 2025 and net charge-offs of $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The allowance for credit losses on loans totaled $14.7 million, or 1.02% of total loans on December 31, 2025, compared to $14.4 million, or 1.01% of total loans on September 30, 2025, and $16.4 million, or 1.12% of total loans on December 31, 2024. The increase in allowance for credit losses from the prior period is primarily due to increased pooled loan balances as well as three new loans with specific reserves on individually analyzed loans added in the fourth quarter. The decrease in allowance for credit losses from the fourth quarter of 2024 was driven by lower individually analyzed loans balances following charge-offs recorded in 2025. The allowance for credit losses to NPA coverage increased to 316% on December 31, 2025, compared to 253% on September 30, 2025, and to 231% on December 31, 2024.
NONINTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE
Non-interest income increased $518 thousand to $5.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 from $4.5 million in the prior quarter. Non-interest income increased 11.5% in the fourth quarter primarily due to increases in other income from the $895 thousand recovery from an acquired loan that was charged off prior to the acquisition of Touchstone. This increase in other income was offset by decreases in ATM and check card income, decreases in fees for other customer services, and no bargain purchase gain recognized compared to the prior quarter.
Adjusted noninterest income(1), which excludes the bargain purchase gain ($304 thousand in the third quarter of 2025) and loan recovery ($895 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2025), decreased $73 thousand to $4.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 from $4.2 million in the prior quarter, due to nominal decreases in ATM and check card income and fees for other customer services.
Noninterest expense increased $343 thousand to $16.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 from $15.8 million in the prior quarter. Merger expense increased due to the one-time early lease termination for the now closed Raleigh loan production office acquired in the Touchstone merger. The Company is currently reviewing our total office footprint with plans to further improve operating leverage.
Adjusted operating noninterest expense(1), which excludes the Raleigh LPO lease termination ($127 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2025) and amortization of intangible assets ($442 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $442 thousand in the third quarter of 2025), increased $216 thousand to $15.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 from $15.3 million in the prior quarter, due to increases in equipment and other operating expense.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense was $1.39 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $1.27 million for the third quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate of 20.2% for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased from the 18.6% in the third quarter of 2025. This increased effective tax rate in the fourth quarter was driven by additional income tax expense of $78 thousand related to an adjustment to deferred tax assets related to the Touchstone acquisition partially offset by the final state tax refund for Touchstone. Tax expense and the related effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 were reduced due to the $304 thousand adjustment to the bargain purchase gain related to the final Touchstone federal tax filing.
BALANCE SHEET
On December 31, 2025, total assets were $2.039 billion, an increase of $7.9 million or 0.4% from September 30, 2025, and an increase of $28.4 million or 1.4% from December 31, 2024. Total assets were consistent with the prior quarter, and the increase from the prior year was driven by additional investment in securities available for sale.
On December 31, 2025, loans held for investment ("LHFI") net of allowance totaled $1.435 billion, an increase of $16.3 million or 1.1% from $1.419 billion on September 30, 2025, and a decrease of $15.6 million or 1.1% from December 31, 2024.

On December 31, 2025, total investments were $326.0 million, an increase of $20.5 million or 6.7% from September 30, 2025, and an increase of $48.7 million or 17.6% from December 31, 2024. Available for sale ("AFS") securities totaled $217.5 million on December 31, 2025, and $196.5 million on September 30, 2025, and $163.8 million on December 31, 2024. The increases compared to the prior quarters were driven by security purchases exceeding portfolio cashflows. Total net unrealized losses on the AFS securities portfolio were $14.8 million on December 31, 2025, compared to $15.4 million on September 30, 2025, and $22.1 million on December 31, 2024.

On December 31, 2025, total deposits were $1.800 billion, a decrease of $10.0 million or 0.6% from the prior quarter, and a decrease of $4.2 million or 0.2% from December 31, 2024. Overall, the deposit balances were consistent with the prior quarter and the prior year. There were $25.0 million in other borrowings with the Federal Home Loan Bank on December 31, 2025, compared to no other borrowings on September 30, 2025, or December 31, 2024.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity sources available to the Bank, including interest-bearing deposits in banks, unpledged securities available for sale, at fair value, and available lines of credit totaled $743.0 million on December 31, 2025, $676.1 million on September 30, 2025, and $770.0 million on December 31, 2024.
The Bank maintains liquidity to fund loan growth and to meet potential demand from deposit customers, including potential volatile deposits. The estimated amount of uninsured customer deposits totaled $538.2 million on December 31, 2025, $555.0 million on September 30, 2025, and $537.0 million on December 31, 2024. Excluding municipal deposits that have collateral pledged, the estimated amount of uninsured customer deposits totaled $448.8 million on December 31, 2025, $473.4 million on September 30, 2025, and $445.5 million on December 31, 2024.
ASSET QUALITY
Overall NPAs improved over the previous period and previous year as previously reserved loans were charged off in the fourth quarter of 2025. Management classifies NPAs as non-accrual loans and other real estate owned ("OREO"). NPAs as a percentage of total loans declined to 0.32% on December 31, 2025, down from 0.40% on September 30, 2025, and down from 0.48% on December 31, 2024. NPAs decreased by $1.0 million to $4.7 million on December 31, 2025, compared to $5.7 million on September 30, 2025, and $7.1 million on December 31, 2024.
There were no loans past due over 90 days or more and still accruing interest on December 31, 2025, compared to $388 thousand on September 30, 2025, and $365 thousand on December 31, 2024. Loans past-due 30-89 days and still accruing interest increased to $3.8 million, or 0.26% of total loans on December 31, 2025, compared to $3.6 million, or 0.25% of total loans on September 30, 2025, and $3.1 million, or 0.21%, of total loans on December 31, 2024. The health care provider portfolio continues to decline with $10.0 million in loan balances and $4.1 million in unamortized premiums, with $2.1 million on non-accrual which include specific reserves of $1.6 million.
CAPITAL
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company declared and paid cash dividends of $0.17 per common share, compared to $0.155 in the third quarter of 2025 and $0.155 in the fourth quarter of 2024. Tangible book value per share(1) grew to $18.83 at December 31, 2025, from $18.26 per share at September 30, 2025, and $16.55 at December 31, 2024 primarily due to earnings and improvements in unrealized losses on available for sale securities, less dividends and corporate expenses paid.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company redeemed $13 million in subordinated debt, at par, including redemptions on October 1, 2025 ($5 million) and November 15, 2025 ($8 million). There was no gain or loss recognized on these redemptions. These capital redemptions had minimal impact on the total risk-based capital ratio and should position the Company for improved profitability in future periods.
