Ohio Valley Banc remains a 'buy' as prudent loan loss provisioning supports balance sheet integrity amid loan book expansion. Despite a 200%+ surge in loan loss provisions, OVBC's net interest income and non-interest income both grew, with EPS at $1.53 for H1. Loan book quality is stable: non-performing loans are 1.44%, past dues declined, and most exposures are real estate-backed.
