WARRENTON, Va., April 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Fauquier Bankshares, Inc. (the Company) (NASDAQ: FBSS), parent company of The Fauquier Bank, reported net income of $1.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, compared with a net loss of $544,000, or $(0.14) per diluted share for the prior quarter and $768,000 or $0.20 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2017.

The Company's strategic goals were designed to grow the Company, increase profitability and to drive shareholder value. With this in mind, our key strategic objectives and our current outlook are:
- We continue to maintain a strong net interest margin and have done so since the fourth quarter of 2016. Our focus is on loan and deposit pricing to ensure a well maintained and healthy margin.
- Commercial and consumer loan growth continues to show improvement with several new loan products, all while maintaining strong asset quality. While these new offerings bring added benefits to the Company and our clients, we continue to have credit standards that do not compromise our credit quality.
- The origination and sales of secondary market loans continues to provide an additional source of noninterest income, along with our Wealth Management services and fee income tied to our retail products.
- Noninterest expenses have stabilized, however we recognize room for improvement. Our management team continues to evaluate process efficiencies to continue to reduce operating costs.
