Eastern Bankshares, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

~ Receipt of Shareholder Approvals for the Merger with Cambridge ~

~ CFO James Fitzgerald Announces Upcoming Retirement ~

Eastern Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company,” or together with its subsidiaries, “Eastern”) (NASDAQ Global Select Market: EBC), the stock holding company of Eastern Bank, today announced its 2024 first quarter financial results and the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend.

On February 28, 2024, the Company and Cambridge Bancorp (“Cambridge”) each received shareholder approval for the previously announced all-stock merger of Cambridge with and into Eastern (“the merger”). The merger is anticipated to close early in the third quarter of 2024, subject to receipt of regulatory approvals.

“Our first quarter results demonstrated growth in both core deposits and loans, as we continue to deepen our presence in the Boston market,” said Bob Rivers, Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board of the Company and Eastern Bank. “Our earnings in the quarter benefited from margin stabilization and well-controlled expenses, and our balance sheet remains healthy with strong capital and liquidity.”

“We remain optimistic about our continued growth as Eastern and Cambridge continue to work closely as we plan for the anticipated merger closing and integration. We are pleased to have received shareholder approvals for the merger and we look forward to receiving regulatory approvals in the near future and combining our two great franchises into Boston’s leading bank,” said Rivers.

CFO JAMES FITZGERALD ANNOUNCES UPCOMING RETIREMENT

The Company also announced today that James Fitzgerald intends to retire from his role as Chief Financial Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and Treasurer of the Company and as Chief Financial Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and Vice Chair of Eastern Bank after 12 years of dedicated service. Fitzgerald will continue to serve in his roles until a successor is appointed, and will then serve in a senior advisory role throughout the planned merger and integration with Cambridge and Cambridge Trust Company and previously announced leadership transitions related to the merger. As part of the search process to help identify the next CFO, Eastern has retained executive search firm Korn Ferry.

“On behalf of everyone at Eastern, it is my honor to recognize and thank Jim for his extraordinary contributions,” said Rivers. “Jim’s outstanding financial acumen, his leadership across many important transactions over the years, and his role as a trusted advisor to our leadership team and mentor to our next generation of executive leaders, position Eastern exceptionally well as we continue to serve our shareholders, customers and workforce. As Jim begins to prepare for retirement, we are deeply grateful for all that he has contributed and for his continued leadership throughout this transition.”

Deborah Jackson, Eastern’s Lead Director, added, “On behalf of the Board, I thank Jim for his tremendous service and dedication to Eastern over the years. Eastern’s track record of solid performance and strong financial and administrative functions are testaments to Jim’s leadership. We look forward to his continued contributions as a successor is appointed and we build upon Jim’s legacy at Eastern.”

“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time at Eastern and it’s been a privilege to work with Bob and the Board over the last 12 years,” added Fitzgerald. “It’s also been a privilege working with our highly talented executive team and my colleagues throughout Eastern as we have executed a number of strategic transactions since the IPO that position the Company for future growth. I’ll certainly miss the many relationships at Eastern that have been so meaningful to me and am very committed to seeing the successful completion of the Cambridge integration.”

ASSET QUALITY

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses totaling $7.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 driven primarily by net charge-off activity in the first quarter.

NPLs totaled $57.2 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $52.6 million at the end of the prior quarter.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

*Denotes a non-GAAP financial measure used in this press release.

A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of the Company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding (or including) amounts that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) in the Company’s statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements).

The Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, which management uses to evaluate the Company’s performance, and which exclude the effects of certain transactions that management believes are unrelated to its core business and are therefore not necessarily indicative of its current performance or financial position. Management believes excluding these items facilitates greater visibility for investors into the Company’s core business as well as underlying trends that may, to some extent, be obscured by inclusion of such items in the corresponding GAAP financial measures. Except as otherwise indicated, these non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release exclude discontinued operations.

There are items in the Company’s financial statements that impact its financial results, but which management believes are unrelated to the Company’s core business. Accordingly, the Company presents noninterest income on an operating basis, total operating revenue, noninterest expense on an operating basis, operating net income, operating earnings per share, operating return on average assets, operating return on average shareholders’ equity, operating return on average tangible shareholders’ equity (discussed further below), and the operating efficiency ratio. Each of these figures excludes the impact of such applicable items because management believes such exclusion can provide greater visibility into the Company’s core business and underlying trends. Such items that management does not consider to be core to the Company’s business include (i) income and expenses from investments held in rabbi trusts, (ii) gains and losses on sales of securities available for sale, net, (iii) gains and losses on the sale of other assets, (iv) rabbi trust employee benefits, (v) impairment charges on tax credit investments and associated tax credit benefits, (vi) other real estate owned (“OREO”) gains, (vii) merger and acquisition expenses, (viii) the non-cash pension settlement charge recognized related to the Defined Benefit Plan, (ix) certain discrete tax items, and (x) net income from discontinued operations. The Company does not provide an outlook for its total noninterest income and total noninterest expense because each contains income or expense components, as applicable, such as income associated with rabbi trust accounts and rabbi trust employee benefit expense, which are market-driven, and over which the Company cannot exercise control. Accordingly, reconciliations of the Company’s outlook for its noninterest income on an operating basis and its noninterest expense on an operating basis to an outlook for total noninterest income and total noninterest expense, respectively, cannot be made available without unreasonable effort.

Management also presents tangible assets, tangible shareholders’ equity, average tangible shareholders’ equity, tangible book value per share, the ratio of tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets including the impact of mark-to-market adjustments on held-to-maturity securities, return on average tangible shareholders’ equity, and operating return on average shareholders’ equity (discussed further above), each of which excludes the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets, as management believes these financial measures provide investors with the ability to further assess the Company’s performance, identify trends in its core business and provide a comparison of its capital adequacy to other companies. The Company included the tangible ratios because management believes that investors may find it useful to have access to the same analytical tools used by management to assess performance and identify trends.

These non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release should not be considered an alternative or substitute for financial results or measures determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indication of the Company’s cash flows from operating activities, a measure of its liquidity position or an indication of funds available for its cash needs. An item which management considers to be non-core and excludes when computing these non-GAAP measures can be of substantial importance to the Company’s results for any particular period. In addition, management’s methodology for calculating non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methodologies employed by other banking companies to calculate the same or similar performance measures, and accordingly, the Company’s reported non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to the same or similar performance measures reported by other banking companies. Please refer to Appendices A-E for reconciliations of the Company's GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures in this press release.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding anticipated future events and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts.

There are many factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results described in the forward-looking statements.

Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results include; adverse developments in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and charge-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses; increased competitive pressures; changes in interest rates and resulting changes in competitor or customer behavior, mix or costs of sources of funding, and deposit amounts and composition; risks associated with the Company’s completion and/or implementation of the merger with Cambridge, including risks that required regulatory approvals for the merger are not obtained or other closing conditions are not satisfied in a timely manner or at all and that the merger fails to occur in the timeframe anticipated or at all; prior to the completion of the merger or thereafter, Cambridge or the Company may not perform as expected due to transaction-related uncertainty or other factors; and revenue or expense synergies may not fully materialize for the Company in the timeframe expected or at all, or may be more costly to achieve; adverse national or regional economic conditions or conditions within the securities markets or banking sector; legislative and regulatory changes and related compliance costs that could adversely affect the business in which the Company and its subsidiary Eastern Bank are engaged, including the effect of, and changes in, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, such as the interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; market and monetary fluctuations, including inflationary or recessionary pressures, interest rate sensitivity, liquidity constraints, increased borrowing and funding costs, and fluctuations due to actual or anticipated changes to federal tax laws; the realizability of deferred tax assets; the Company’s ability to successfully implement its risk mitigation strategies; asset and credit quality deterioration, including adverse developments in local or regional real estate markets that decrease collateral values associated with existing loans; and operational risks such as cybersecurity incidents, natural disasters, and pandemics, including COVID-19.

(1) Average assets, average goodwill and other intangibles, and average tangible shareholders' equity components for the three months ended Dec 31, 2023 and preceding periods presented in this table include discontinued operations.

(2) The net tax benefit (expense) associated with these items is generally determined by assessing whether each item is included or excluded from net taxable income and applying our combined statutory tax rate only to those items included in net taxable income. The net tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to the tax benefit from state tax strategies associated with the utilization of capital losses as a result of the sale of securities in the first quarter of 2023, described further below. Upon the sale of securities in the first quarter of 2023, we established a valuation allowance of $17.4 million, as it was determined at that time that it was not more-likely-than-not that the entirety of the deferred tax asset related to the loss on such securities would be realized. Included in that $17.4 million was $2.8 million in expected lost state tax benefits. Following the execution of the sale of our insurance agency business in October 2023 and the resulting capital gain, coupled with tax planning strategies, a state tax benefit of $13.6 million was realized on the security sale losses.

(3) Presented on an annualized basis.
