Coastal Bend Bancshares in Corpus Christi, Texas, has agreed to buy First National Bank in Port Lavaca, Texas.

The parent of the $661.7 million-asset First Community Bank said in a press release that it expects to buy the $381.3 million-asset First National in the second quarter. The price wasn’t disclosed.

First National has four branches.
