We have stayed the course that brought us here by making good loans and providing the highest level of customer service, while rewarding our shareholders’ investment and giving back to the communities we serve. On September 1, 2017, I was honored to be named as President and Chief Executive Officer of National Bank- shares upon the retirement of Jim Rakes. In his career of 35 years with National Bank and National Bankshares, Mr. Rakes provided our Company with strong leadership and a steady guiding hand. On behalf of myself as well as the Directors, employees and shareholders of the Company, we would like to thank Mr. Rakes for his decades of dedicated service and his peerless contribution to the financial success and remarkable longevity of the Company. As you may have read in the Company’s 2017 earnings announcement made on February 22, 2018, the tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“the Act”) has had a major impact on our 2017 financial results. We anticipate that the Act will have a long-term positive effect on our earnings by reducing the Company’s tax rate from 35% to 21%. However, due to the tax rate change, we were required to recognize a $1.59 million revaluation adjustment on tax deferred assets in the fourth quarter of 2017. Bankshares finished 2017 with earnings of $14.09 million, or $2.03 per common share. Excluding the unfore- seen effect of the revaluation adjustment noted above, earnings for the year were $15.68 million, which compares favorably to earnings of $14.94 million in 2016. Our ongoing profitability, strong capital position and efforts to control costs resulted in a dividend payment of $1.17 per share in 2017, up from $1.16 in 2016. Loans provide the core of our Company’s earnings, and in 2017 we were pleased to see continued growth in this area. Net loans increased to $660.14 million in 2017, up from $639.45 million the year before. the Company has made a sustained effort to make our loan portfolio the best it can be by investing in additional loan personnel and technology while working to improve lending processes whenever possible. these efforts are paying off, and in 2017 we experienced substantial reductions in nonperforming assets as we continue to work with borrowers to restructure loans, when possible. As a result, we were able to reduce the allowance for loan losses in 2017 to $7.93 million, down 4.5% from $8.30 million in 2016. At National Bankshares we diligently reinvest in the people, technology and projects that will position us strongly for the future. 2017 was no exception as we hired several experienced employees in critical areas, implemented technology updates, launched a new website and made physical improvements to our branch offices. these efforts will continue in 2018, and along with favorable changes in the broader economic sphere, should bode well for the future of our Company. 2017 marked National Bank’s 126th year in business. Our long track record has been made possible by a commit- ment to “Banking Built on Values” – honesty, accountability, integrity and respect being foremost. At the begin- ning of 2018, we felt it was time to enshrine the values that we have always practiced by putting them into writing. these values give us direction, as reflected in the compass logo on the cover of our report, and a full statement of these values can be found on the first page. Our employees are dedicated to knowing and living these values so that our customers, shareholders and communities can continue to trust and rely on National Bankshares, Inc. thank you for your continued support. From the National Bankshares family, we wish you all the best in 2018. F.

Rakes: A Distinguished Career On August 31st, 2017, James G. Rakes retired from his positions as President and Chief Executive Officer of National Bankshares, Inc., as Chairman of the Board of National Bank and as President and CEO of National Bankshares Financial Services. Mr. Rakes joined National Bank in 1982 and succeeded William Billig as President and CEO in 1983. Under Mr. Rakes’ leadership, the bank began a remarkable 35-year period of growth and financial success. In 1983, the bank had $58.6 million in assets and by the end of 1989 had grown to $162 million in assets. In 1986 Mr. Rakes led the formation of the bank’s holding company, National Bankshares, Inc., positioning the Company for future growth and acquisitions. the bank enlarged its branch footprint in the 80’s and early 90’s, adding new offices in Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Pearisburg and Pembroke. In 1996 the Company took a major leap forward when it acquired the Bank of tazewell County (BtC). the merger of National Bank and BtC increased National Bankshares’ asset size from slightly over $200 million to $388 million, and added new branch loca- tions in tazewell, Bluefield and Richlands. Bankshares ended the millennium with $472 million in assets, $292 million in loans and over 200 employees. By the end of 2009 the Company had grown to $982 million in assets and $583 million in loans, and in 2011 reached assets of over $1 billion. today, with over $1.2 billion in assets and 25 offices across Southwest Virginia, the Company’s current size, financial strength and profitability serve as testament to Mr. Rakes’ outstanding leadership. Mr. Rakes’ contributions reached well beyond the financial success of the Company and into the community at large. He contributed years of service and leadership on the boards of many local organizations, including the Blacksburg Museum and Cultural Foundation, the Blacksburg Partnership, the Free Clinic of the New River Valley, the Montgomery Regional Hospital, New River Community College and the Mental Health Association of the NRV, among others. Mr. Rakes was also a tireless advocate for the community banking industry, serving on various committees and boards of the American Bankers Association and the Virginia Bankers Association. In 1999, Mr. Rakes helped found Bankers Insurance, which has since grown to 24 locations in Virginia and North Carolina and is the 5th largest insur- ance company in Virginia.
