First Community Bancshares, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 Results and Quarterly Dividend

BLUEFIELD, Va., Jan. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Community Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCBC) (www.firstcommunitybank.com) (the “Company”) today reported its unaudited results of operations and other financial information for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2017. The Company reported net income of $1.21 million, or $0.07 per diluted common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, and $21.49 million, or $1.26 per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2017.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”), was enacted into law. The Tax Reform Act reduces the federal tax rate for corporations from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018, and changes, or limits, certain tax deductions. As a result of the new law, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) require the immediate revaluation of deferred tax assets to a value reflective of the lower corporate tax rate. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a one-time estimated revaluation adjustment of approximately $6.55 million to reduce its net deferred tax asset, which increased the provision for income taxes.

Excluding the impact of the non-cash revaluation, fourth quarter earnings were $7.77 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, an increase of $1.36 million, or 21.25%, over fourth quarter 2016. Full year earnings exclusive of the revaluation were $28.04 million, an increase of $2.91 million, or 11.59%, over 2016 earnings. Adjusted return on assets and equity were 1.18% and 8.02%, respectively, both significant increases over the prior year.

The Company also announced today that the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend to common shareholders of eighteen cents ($0.18) per common share. The quarterly dividend is payable to common shareholders of record on February 2, 2018, and is expected to be paid on or about February 16, 2018. The current year marks the 33rd consecutive year of regular cash dividends paid to stockholders.
