Insights

Financial Analyst

The reported net income of $11.78 million for the quarter, translating to $0.66 per diluted common share, represents a critical indicator of First Community Bankshares' financial health. When evaluating the company's performance, it is essential to compare these figures against previous quarters and the same quarter in prior years to assess the growth trajectory or any emerging trends. Furthermore, the annual net income of $48.02 million, or $2.72 per diluted common share, provides a broader view of the company's profitability over the fiscal year. This figure is particularly relevant for shareholders as it influences the company's ability to pay dividends and reinvest in its operations.

The declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.29 per common share is an actionable piece of information for current and prospective investors, as it directly impacts shareholder returns. The consistency and growth of dividend payments can be a signal of a company's financial stability and confidence in its future cash flows. However, it is also important to analyze the payout ratio to ensure that the dividends are sustainable and do not compromise the company's financial position.

Market Research Analyst

First Community Bankshares' financial results can have implications for investor sentiment and the stock's performance in the market. Positive earnings results can lead to increased investor confidence and potentially drive the stock price up, while any signs of weakness might have the opposite effect. The dividend announcement, in particular, can be attractive to income-focused investors and could influence the stock's demand. It is also worth noting the market conditions during the reported quarter, as macroeconomic factors such as interest rates and regulatory changes can significantly impact the banking sector's performance.

Investors should also monitor the company's performance relative to its peers within the financial sector. Benchmarking against competitors can provide additional context to the company's results, highlighting whether First Community Bankshares is outperforming, in line with, or lagging behind industry trends. Such comparative analysis is valuable for understanding the company's market position and strategic outlook.

Fourth Quarter 2023 and Full Year Highlights

Income Statement

• Net income of $11.78 million for the fourth quarter and $48.02 million for the year were negatively impacted by a $3.00 million accrual for estimated litigation expenses.
• Adjusted for non-recurring items, fourth quarter net income increased $1.84 million to $14.59 million compared to fourth quarter 2022 on improved net interest margin and lower provision for credit losses. Also adjusted for non-recurring items, current year net income of $54.74 million was $9.12 million, or 19.99%, greater than last year.
• Net interest income increased $1.44 million compared to the same quarter in 2022, as increases in benchmark interest rates have improved net interest margin. Provision for credit losses was approximately $2.39 million lower than the same quarter last year.
• Interest and fees on loans increased $5.80 million from the same quarter of 2022 and is attributable to both an increase in yield and an increase in average balance compared to the yield and average balance of the prior year. The Company acquired Surrey Bancorp on April 21, 2023, adding approximately $239.08 million in loans. Interest income on deposits in banks decreased $777 thousand to $438 thousand for the fourth quarter, primarily due to a significant decrease in the average balance compared to the fourth quarter of 2022.
• Annualized return on average assets (“ROA”) was 1.43% for the fourth quarter and 1.48% for the twelve months of 2023 compared to 1.59% and 1.45% for the same periods, respectively of 2022. Annualized return on average common equity (“ROE”) was 9.39% for the fourth quarter and 10.02% for the twelve months of 2023 compared to 11.99% and 11.04%, for the same periods, respectively of 2022. Adjusted for non-recurring items, ROA was 1.77% and ROE was 11.63% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Balance Sheet and Asset Quality

• The Company’s loan portfolio increased by $172.10 million, or 7.17%, from December 31, 2022. Excluding the Surrey transaction, the loan portfolio decreased approximately $66.98 million, or 2.79%.
• Deposits increased $43.51 million, or 1.62%, from year-end 2022. Excluding the Surrey transaction, deposits decreased approximately $360.13 million, or 13.44%, from December 31, 2022.
• The Company repurchased 189,500 common shares during the fourth quarter of 2023 for a total cost of $5.98 million. The Company repurchased 768,079 common shares during 2023 for a total cost of $23.04 million. The Company recently announced a new 2.7 million share repurchase program that replaced the remainder of the prior program.
• Non-performing loans to total loans increased to 0.76% when compared with the same quarter of 2022. The Company experienced net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2023 of $883 thousand, or 0.14%, of annualized average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $2.25 million, or 0.37%, of annualized average loans for the same period in 2022.
• The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.41% at December 31, 2023, compared to 1.27% for the same period of 2022.
• The accumulated other comprehensive loss of $10.95 million at December 31, 2023, decreased $4.77 million compared to the accumulated other comprehensive loss of $15.71 million at December 31, 2022.
