2016 Annual Report Our Story National Bankshares ontinueshese days, it’s easy to think that banking is essentially a technological activity. There is no doubt that innovations in digital finance have revolutionized the ease with which we can perform everyday banking functions. But at National Bankshares, we believe that banking is defined by the personal relationships we have with our customers. Without the communication, trust and friendships we have with our customers, our Company would not exist. We know that there will be a place for our brand of relationship-based community banking for many years to come. We know that our story continues. Financial Highlights 2012-2016 ($ in thousands, except ratios, share and per share data) For ThE yEar 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 Net income Basic net income per share Diluted net income per share Cash dividends per share Return on average assets Return on average equity Net interest margin Efficiency ratio Average equity to average assets $ 14,942 2.15 2.15 1.16 1.24% 8.30% 3.51% 52.17% 14.92% $ 15,833 2.28 2.28 1.14 1.37% 9.22% 3.86% 49.41% 14.86% $ 16,914 2.43 2.43 1.13 1.51% 10.72% 4.00% 47.08% 14.08% $ 17,790 2.56 2.55 1.12 1.63% 11.90% 4.21% 45.99% 13.71% $ 17,747 2.56 2.55 1.10 1.64% 12.01% 4.34% 43.77% 13.68% aT yEar-ENd 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 Loans, net Total securities Total assets Total deposits Stockholders’ equity Book value per share 639,452 440,409 1,233,942 1,043,442 178,263 25.62 610,711 389,288 1,203,519 1,018,859 172,114 24.74 597,203 385,385 1,158,798 982,428 166,303 23.93 587,463 347,109 1,114,561 960,036 145,892 21.00 583,813 350,117 1,107,964 946,766 150,109 21.60 Net income ($ millions) Cash dividends per share ($) Efficiency ratio (%) 17.7 17.8 16.9 15.8 14.9 1.10 1.12 1.13 1.14 1.16 52.2 49.4 43.8 46.0 47.1 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16 Loans, net ($ millions) Total assets ($ billions) Book value per share ($) 583.8 587.5 597.2 610.7 639.5 1.11 1.11 1.16 1.20 1.23 23.9 24.7 25.6 21.6 21.0 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16  To Our hareholders 2016 was another solid year for National Bankshares. Loans and core deposits both grew steadily, while we maintained good asset quality. Noninterest income showed modest growth in key areas. Earnings were down from 2015, but we remain a very profitable company. Our profitability and strong capital position enabled us to pay a very good dividend once again this year. Financial highlights of 2016 include: • Net loans up 4.71% • Total deposits up 2.41% • Nonperforming assets down 16.93% • Net charge-offs down 16.61% • Per share dividend grew from $1.14 to $1.16 • Book value per share up 3.56% 2016 was also a special year for our Company. National Bank celebrated its 125th anniversary, and our story continues by staying true to our community banking roots. Commitment to customer service, prudent lending, capital strength and community service are still the foundation of our approach to banking. There is no doubt that we faced challenges in 2016. Low interest rates governed by economic policy continued to reduce earnings on our loan and securities portfolios, driving down net income. An extremely competitive local loan market also reduced yields on loans. Regulatory compliance mandates required more time, money and staff than ever before. In 2016 we met these challenges by focusing on what we can control. We worked hard to generate new loans and were rewarded with nice growth in our loan portfolio. The quality of our loans also improved, with substantial reductions in nonperforming assets and net charge-offs. We took successful measures to increase noninterest income, including an overhaul of our overdraft privilege program. As always, we found ways to control costs and maintain our efficiency. Our Company also invested for the future in 2016. National Bank opened its first loan production office in downtown Roanoke, gaining access to an exciting new market. We hired talented, experienced professionals for several key positions and promoted others from within. We embarked on a project to review and improve our physical infrastructure, and we made ongoing investments in technology products that will make banking easier for our customers. Bankshares’ performance continues to be solid, and we look forward to a successful 2017 and beyond. As we move ahead, we will continue to execute a business plan that you can rely on. Strength, stability and superior customer service will always be at the heart of our community banking mission. This year we would like to recognize Dr. James M. Shuler for his distinguished service on the National Bankshares and National Bank Boards of Directors. Dr. Shuler will retire from the Bankshares Board in May with 40 years of service to our organization. Through countless hours, his knowledge, experience and leadership have contributed greatly to the success of our Company. On behalf of all of our officers, employees and Directors, we thank Dr. Shuler for his dedicated service. Looking back on our 125th year of business, we know that we would not be where we are today without our stockholders, customers and friends in the community. We thank you for your continued support.
