description: "First Community Bancshares reported a significant surge in Q2 FY26 net income, climbing 83.84% to $22.51 million, with diluted EPS rising 77.61% to $1.19. The growth was driven by noninterest income more than doubling to $22.34 million, largely due to a pre-tax gain from selling its Bearing Insurance stake. Net interest income increased 13.87%, while assets reached $3.61 billion, bolstered by the Hometown acquisition."
