National Bankshares, Inc., based in Blacksburg, Virginia, operates as a community bank with 27 full-service offices and focuses on providing financial services in southwest and central Virginia. The bank has recently reported its financial results for the third quarter of 2024, showing a decline in net income compared to the previous year, largely due to increased interest expenses and merger-related costs. The company’s net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $4.54 million, a significant drop from the $11.51 million recorded for the same period in 2023.
