Commenting on these results, CEO Mike Wilkerson said, "Our goal is to remain the bank for the Shenandoah Valley. Our focus is on earning and keeping customer relationships, growing core deposits through these relationships, and extending fairly priced loans that help our customers and the Valley grow and remain strong. Deposit growth is a critical aspect of lending. Deposits entrusted to us are reinvested right here through loans that meet the needs of individuals and businesses who are strengthening our communities and providing jobs to our citizens. Due to the current interest rate environment, these new loans and those with adjustable interest rates are intended to reposition our loan portfolio to one that produces a higher yield.
"From an economic standpoint, 2023 continues to challenge everyone. In spite of that, we believe F&M's balance sheet is strong, our loan portfolio is diverse and sound, our deposit base is balanced, and we have ample liquidity. These are all key indicators of a strong bank. Our leadership team is pleased with the Bank's growth in both deposits and loans, while maintaining pricing discipline and asset quality. We continuously assess all of our business lines and make strategic adjustments intended to optimize capital, liquidity, and assets to provide future earnings, with safety and soundness as our foundation.
"Our team members, who are all invested in the health and well-being of their families, friends, and neighbors in the Shenandoah Valley, provide great customer service, and serve our communities with their time, talents, and energy. They understand the meaning and the importance of the words ‘community bank.'"

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, management uses certain non-GAAP measures, including tangible common equity and tangible book value per share, to supplement the evaluation of the Company's financial condition and performance. Management believes presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the Company's operating results. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.
