The McLean-based institution faced headwinds during the period, primarily driven by a $668,301 write-down on the carrying value of its Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) assets, which were adjusted to an appraised land value of $634,500. Additionally, the bank increased its provision for loan losses by $538,805, reflecting growth in commercial and industrial loan balances and net charge-offs. Despite these pressures, the bank saw a 5.49% increase in revenue compared to the same quarter last year. CEO Joseph J. Thomas highlighted that, excluding the OREO write-down, pre-tax, pre-provision net income reached $1.56 million, representing a 3.69% improvement over the linked quarter. The bank also benefited from a 10-basis-point increase in its net interest margin, which rose to 2.83%. The mortgage division contributed to the results by closing 112 loans, totaling $54 million in volume, which helped boost gain-on-sale revenue by 14.6% over the previous quarter. Looking ahead, management expressed confidence in the bank's capital position, noting that ratios remain well above regulatory requirements for well-capitalized holding companies. The firm recently celebrated its 25th anniversary and the opening of a new corporate headquarters in Tysons Corner, Virginia.
