Exhibit 99.2


United Bancshares, Inc.


Quarterly Report

December 31, 2016


Shareholders, Customers and Team Members:


I am pleased to report that your Company had another successful year in 2016.  In addition to reporting income before taxes of approximately $7.3 million, return on average equity of 7.94% and return on average assets of 0.90%, the Company also reported growth of approximately 6.2% and 5.0% for loans and non-interest bearing deposits, respectively.  


The strategic decisions previously communicated to reposition our balance sheet after the 2014 acquisition through the systematic run off of volatile deposits and loan relationships were essentially completed during the fourth quarter of 2016.  During this time of transition, the bank has built a robust pipeline of opportunities which positively impacted our balance sheet in the fourth quarter of 2016.  Your management team remains committed to a methodical and consistent growth strategy through building relationships in our communities and reviewing other opportunities as they present themselves.  We continue to believe that a measured balance sheet growth strategy reduces overall risk and drives long-term value for our shareholders.


I am also pleased to report that our shares closed the year 17% higher than in 2015 and that the Board of Directors declared a $0.12 per share dividend (approximately a 9% increase from the prior quarter), payable on March 15th to shareholders of record as of February 28, 2017.  This decision was reached after their review of your Companys capital position, risk profile, earnings levels, and available capital sources.  We understand how important dividends and increased stock value are for our shareholders; both of these investment objectives have and will remain important parts of the Companys consideration as the board determines capital allocation.


As we look forward, our journey will undoubtedly be presented with numerous obstacles and challenges.  Regardless of the environment, we continue to believe that the drivers of our success are, and will continue to be, our strong corporate values of respect for and accountability to our shareholders, customers, colleagues, and communities.


As always, we greatly appreciate your continued support and the trust you have placed in us.


Respectfully,




Brian D. Young

President & CEO
