On November 1, 2025, the Company completed its merger (“the merger”) with HarborOne Bancorp
(“HarborOne”), the holding company of HarborOne Bank, and therefore the fourth quarter financial
results reflect the partial quarter impact of the merger. The merger added approximately $4.5 billion in
loans, and $4.3 billion in deposits, each at fair value.

“We are pleased with our performance in 2025,” said Denis Sheahan, Chief Executive Officer. “Full year results were highlighted by a 62% increase in operating net income, strong organic loan growth, and record levels of Wealth assets under management. On a full year operating basis, return on average assets of 1.21%, return on average tangible common equity of 12.7%, and the efficiency ratio of 51.7%, improved significantly from the prior year. Eastern is well-positioned for 2026 and beyond and we look forward to executing on the meaningful opportunities in front of us — driving organic growth in both our banking and fee-based businesses, returning capital to shareholders, and demonstrating the enhanced earnings power of the company to deliver top quartile financial returns. We believe this approach will create meaningful value for shareholders. Finally, I want to welcome our new colleagues from HarborOne and thank all our employees for another successful year.”

David Rosato, Chief Financial Officer, added, “Our fourth quarter results marked a strong finish to the year. Operating net income of $94.7 million increased 28% linked quarter and generated an operating return on average tangible common equity of 13.8%. The quarter benefited from the addition of HarborOne and solid organic loan growth. We are focused on merger integration and ensuring a smooth transition for customers and employees while capturing projected cost savings and other long-term benefits of the transaction. Importantly, we are on track to achieve the merger-related financial targets set forth at the time of our announcement last year. In addition, our commitment to returning capital was evident in the quarter. We repurchased 3.1 million shares of common stock for $55.4 million, or 26% of the share repurchase program authorized in October.”

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income was $237.4 million, an increase of $37.2 million from the third quarter.

Net interest income included net discount accretion of $22.6 million, compared to $10.0 million in the prior quarter. Net discount accretion contributed 34 basis points to the net interest margin on an FTE basis, compared to 17 basis points in the prior quarter.
The net interest margin on an FTE basis increased 14 basis points to 3.61%, due to higher interest-earning asset yields.
The yield on total interest-earning assets was up 21 basis points to 5.08%, primarily due to an increase in loan yields driven by higher net discount accretion.
The cost of total interest-bearing liabilities increased 4 basis points to 2.15% due to modestly higher deposit costs.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income was $46.1 million, an increase of $4.8 million. The current quarter included a non-operating loss of $0.7 million, compared to non-operating income of $1.5 million in the prior quarter.

Operating noninterest income was $46.7 million, an increase of $7.0 million, mostly due to the addition of HarborOne and driven primarily by the following:

Mortgage banking income increased $2.9 million to $3.0 million.
Card income increased $1.8 million to $5.9 million.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $1.4 million to $9.9 million.
Investment advisory fees increased $1.1 million to $18.6 million due to higher Wealth assets under management.
2


Interest rate swap income increased $0.5 million to $1.4 million.
These increases in operating noninterest income were partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in income from investments held in rabbi trust accounts. This lower income was partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in rabbi trust benefit costs reported in noninterest expense.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense was $189.4 million, an increase of $49.0 million from the third quarter primarily driven by higher operating noninterest expense and merger-related costs.

Non-operating noninterest expense of $33.4 million increased $30.2 million, due to $26.7 million in higher merger-related costs and a $3.5 million lease impairment.

Operating noninterest expense, was $156.1 million, an increase of $18.9 million, primarily due to the addition of HarborOne and largely driven by the following:

Salaries and employee benefits increased $7.5 million to $91.5 million.
Amortization of intangible assets increased $2.9 million to $10.8 million.
Technology and data processing increased $2.7 million to $22.4 million.
Professional services increased $2.6 million to $5.6 million.


BALANCE SHEET

Total assets were $30.6 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $5.1 billion from September 30, 2025.

Loans totaled $23.6 billion, an increase of $4.7 billion. The merger added $4.5 billion in loans. Excluding the merger impact, the loan portfolio grew $255 million, or 1.4%, primarily driven by continued strong commercial lending results.
Securities were $4.4 billion, an increase of $100.4 million. Acquired securities totaling $298 million were sold following the completion of the merger.
Cash and equivalents were $0.3 billion, a decrease of $93.5 million.

Deposits totaled $25.5 billion, an increase of $4.4 billion. The merger added $4.3 billion in deposits. Excluding the merger impact, deposits increased by $20 million, or less than 1%.
Book value per share and tangible book value per share ended the quarter at $18.42 and $12.90, respectively.
Please refer to Appendix D for a roll-forward of tangible shareholders’ equity.

ASSET QUALITY

Non-performing loans (“NPLs”) totaled $172.3 million, or 0.75% of total loans, compared to $69.2 million, or 0.37% of total loans, at September 30, 2025. The increase in NPLs was due primarily to loans acquired from HarborOne that were thoroughly assessed and adequately reserved.

Total net charge-offs were $9.8 million, or 0.18% of average total loans, compared to $6.2 million, or 0.13% in the prior quarter.

Provision for loan losses totaled $4.9 million compared to $7.1 million in the prior quarter.

The allowance for loan losses was $331.8 million at December 31, 2025, or 1.44% of total loans, compared to $233.0 million, or 1.26% of total loans, at September 30, 2025.

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. 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.
