The Company's first quarter 2026 financial results reflect a full quarter impact of the merger with HarborOne Bancorp ("HarborOne"). The Company's fourth quarter 2025 financial results included a partial quarter impact of the merger, which closed on November 1, 2025.

"Our first quarter performance was solid and in line with our expectations, with results reflecting the impact of typical seasonal trends," said Denis Sheahan, Chief Executive Officer. "Operating income increased 31% from a year ago and generated an operating return on average tangible common equity of 12.8%. Loan balances were down modestly as expected. However, customer sentiment remains positive and commercial pipelines ended the quarter at a record high level, giving us confidence in strong originations for the coming quarters. Our commercial lending team is energized following a record year of originations, and that momentum is carrying into 2026. Wealth management continues to capitalize on the deepening alignment with our banking businesses, elevating client engagement and referral activity. Wealth assets under management increased to a record $9.8 billion due to positive net flows, partially offset by weaker equity markets. The deposit environment remains competitive, and we are taking targeted actions to ensure our offerings are appropriately positioned to defend and grow share. While these efforts will result in some upward pressure on costs, we remain focused on balancing growth of our high quality deposit base with that of the margin. Overall, we believe Eastern is well-positioned to deliver meaningful value to shareholders by executing on organic growth opportunities and a consistent return of capital."

David Rosato, Chief Financial Officer, added, "The HarborOne core system conversion was successfully completed in February, and we remain on track to capture the merger's projected cost savings. With this milestone behind us, we are excited to realize the full potential of the combined franchise. Asset quality continues to be excellent with net charge-offs to average total loans of 17 basis points, reflecting the strength of the portfolio. We are particularly pleased with the reduction in non-performing loans since year-end, a result of our proactive risk management approach and strong execution of our Managed Assets Group. Given the Company's profitability, we continue to generate excess capital and remain committed to returning capital to shareholders, as demonstrated by $75.1 million of share repurchases during the quarter. As of quarter-end, 59% of the current authorization is complete and we expect to finish the program around mid-year; at which point, we anticipate executing another share repurchase authorization subject to regulatory approval. Additionally, we announced a 15% dividend increase today, marking the sixth consecutive year of dividend growth since becoming a public company."

**NET INTEREST INCOME**

Net interest income was $244.7 million, an increase of $7.2 million from the fourth quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net interest income included net discount accretion of $19.5 million, compared to $22.6 million in the prior quarter. Net discount accretion contributed 28 basis points to the net interest margin on an FTE basis, compared to 34 basis points in the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The net interest margin on an FTE basis increased 2 basis points to 3.63%, due to lower cost of funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The yield on total interest-earning assets was down 7 basis points to 5.01%, primarily due to a decrease in loan yields, partially offset by higher securities yields.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The cost of total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 16 basis points to 1.99% due to lower deposit costs.

------

**NONINTEREST INCOME**

Noninterest income was $43.6 million, a decrease of $2.5 million from the fourth quarter. The current quarter included a non-operating loss of $1.5 million, compared to a loss of $0.7 million in the prior quarter.

On an operating basis, noninterest income of $45.1 million decreased $1.6 million, driven primarily by the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A loss on investments for employee retirement benefits of $1.9 million due to weaker equity market performance, compared to income of $1.7 million in the prior quarter. This $3.6 million reduction in noninterest income was partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in related benefit costs reported in noninterest expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Interest rate swap income decreased $0.4 million to $1.0 million primarily due to lower loan volume.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Investment advisory fees decreased $0.3 million to $18.3 million.

These decreases in operating noninterest income were partially offset by a $2.9 million increase in miscellaneous income and fees primarily due to a $1.7 million gain on sale of commercial loans.

**NONINTEREST EXPENSE**

Noninterest expense was $198.6 million, an increase of $9.2 million from the fourth quarter primarily driven by higher operating costs, partially offset by lower non-operating expense.

Operating noninterest expense of $167.9 million increased $11.8 million, primarily due to seasonally higher payroll and benefit related costs and a full quarter impact of HarborOne.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Salaries and employee benefits increased $10.6 million to $102.2 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Occupancy and equipment increased $2.1 to $14.1 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Technology and data processing increased $1.4 million to $23.8 million.

These increases in operating noninterest expense were partially offset by a decrease in professional services of $2.2 million to $3.4 million.

Non-operating noninterest expense of $30.8 million decreased $2.6 million, primarily due to $1.8 million in lower merger-related costs and $0.8 million in lower other non-operating expense.

**BALANCE SHEET**

Total assets were $30,633 million at March 31, 2026, an increase of $45.7 million from December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Loans totaled $23,388 million, a decrease of $186.5 million, or 0.8%, primarily due to paydowns of nonperforming loans and payoffs in the commercial real estate portfolio, partially offset by growth of Commercial and Industrial balances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Securities were $4,573 million, an increase of $147.7 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cash and equivalents were $332 million, a decrease of $14.7 million.

Deposits totaled $25,105 million, a decrease of $365.5 million or 1.4%, primarily due to seasonal outflows and elevated competitive environment for deposits.

------

Book value per share and tangible book value per share ended the quarter at $18.45 and $12.90, respectively.

Please refer to Appendix D for a roll-forward of tangible shareholders' equity.

**ASSET QUALITY**

Non-performing loans ("NPLs") totaled $137.7 million, or 0.60% of total loans, compared to $172.3 million, or 0.75% of total loans, at year-end 2025.

Total net charge-offs were $9.7 million, or 0.17% of average total loans, compared to $9.8 million, or 0.18% of total loans in the prior quarter.

Provision for loan losses totaled $5.8 million compared to $4.9 million in the prior quarter.

The allowance for loan losses was $327.9 million at March 31, 2026, or 1.43% of total loans, compared to $331.8 million, or 1.44% of total loans, at December 31, 2025.

**DIVIDENDS AND SHARE REPURCHASES**

The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share, representing a $0.02, or 15% increase. The dividend will be payable on June 22, 2026 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 5, 2026.

The Company repurchased 3.9 million shares of common stock during the first quarter at a weighted average price of $19.33, for an aggregate purchase price of $75.1 million. As of quarter-end, 4.9 million shares remain in the current share repurchase program which expires October 31, 2026.

**NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES**

\*Denotes a non-GAAP financial measure used in the 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.

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) gains and losses on sales of securities available for sale, net, (ii) gains and losses on the sale of other assets, (iii) impairment charges on tax credit investments and associated tax credit benefits, (iv) other real estate owned ("OREO") gains (losses), (v) merger and acquisition expenses, (vi) certain discrete tax items, (vii) expenses associated with staffing reorganization. Return on average tangible shareholders' equity, operating return on average tangible shareholders' equity as well as the operating efficiency ratio also further exclude the effect of amortization of intangible assets.

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, 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 and in the case of tangible net income (loss), return on average tangible shareholders' equity and operating return on average tangible shareholders' equity excludes the after-tax impact of amortization of 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 includes 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-D 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. You can identify these statements from the use of the words "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "plan," "potential," "estimate," "project," "believe," "intend," "anticipate," "expect," "target", "outlook" and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties. 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 implementation of the merger with HarborOne Bancorp, including that 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; that Eastern's business may not perform as expected in the years following the merger; that Eastern's expansion of services or capabilities resulting from the merger may be more challenging than anticipated; and disruptions arising from transitions in management personnel; 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 subsidiaries, including 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; operational risks such as cybersecurity incidents, natural disasters, and pandemics and the failure of the Company to execute its planned share repurchases. For further discussion of such factors, please see the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
