REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2013 RESULTS

Growth in Loans, Core Deposits and Net Income

(Bridgehampton, NY — July 25, 2013)  Bridge Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:BDGE), the parent company of The Bridgehampton National Bank (BNB), today announced second quarter results for 2013.  Highlights of the Company’s quarterly financial results include:

·                  Net income of $3.3 million and $.36 per share, a 6% increase in net income over 2012.

·                  Returns on average assets and equity of .79% and 10.74%, respectively.

·                  Net interest income of $12.3 million, an increase of $.5 million over 2012, with a net interest margin of 3.23%.

·                  Total assets of $1.73 billion at June 2013, 23% higher than June 2012.

·                  Loans exceeded $900 million, with growth of $222 million or 33%, compared to June 2012.

·                  Deposits of $1.46 billion, an 18% increase compared to the second quarter of 2012.

·                  Tier 1 Capital increased by $15.3 million or 12% from June 2012.

·                  Declared quarterly dividend of $.23 per share in July 2013.

“During the second quarter of 2013, we continue to realize benefits from our strategic initiatives: strong growth in loans and core deposits with increased net interest income and net income. Our increased scale offsets the lower net interest margins associated with the increasingly challenging interest rate environment,” commented Kevin M. O’Connor, President and CEO, Bridge Bancorp, Inc.

Net Earnings and Returns

Net income for the quarter ended June 2013 was $3.3 million or $.36 per share, compared to $3.1 million or $.36 per share, for the same period in 2012. The increase in net income reflects earning assets growth, as we experienced higher net interest income and lower credit costs, offsetting decreases in other income and increases in operating expenses.

Average earning assets increased by 17% or $222.8 million, compared to the second quarter of 2012, driven by strong deposit expansion, funding higher loan demand.  This growth in earning assets offset the decline in the net interest margin to 3.23% from 3.63% in the 2012 second quarter. The margin has compressed, as low market interest rates impacted assets more than liabilities. The net interest margin decreased slightly, from 3.29% in the first quarter of 2013. The provision for loan losses was $0.6 million for the quarter, $1.9 million lower than the comparable 2012 quarter, reflecting an improving economy and continuing stable asset quality trends.

“In June 2012, we believed it prudent to protect against developing negative macroeconomic trends. Since then, we have seen continued improvement in the domestic economy driven by job creation and rising home values along with gains in global stock markets. These factors, coupled with a stronger local economy, have resulted in lower credit costs and improved our outlook. We do, however, continue to carefully monitor economic trends as the recovery remains tenuous,” commented Mr. O’Connor.

Non interest income decreased $1.3 million primarily due to the reduction in securities gains of $1.4 million compared to June 2012, partially offset by higher fee income.  Non interest expense for the quarter increased $0.8 million compared to June 2012, reflecting investments in new facilities, including three new branches, enhancements to technology and additional staffing.  Although expenses have increased in 2013, the Company’s ratio of operating expenses to average assets decreased to 2.26% from 2.43% in the second quarter of 2012.

“Non interest income reflects the net effect of ongoing repositioning within our investment portfolio, while fee income grew with our expanded deposit base. The higher expenses are principally related to growth and improving service initiatives, as well as increases in regulatory and compliance costs,” noted Mr. O’Connor.

Balance Sheet and Asset Quality

Total assets at quarter end were $1.73 billion, $326.4 million or 23% higher than June 2012 and $103.9 million or 6% above December 2012. These increases reflect strong organic growth, over June 2012 levels, as loans increased $222.4 million or 33%, while investment securities increased $118.6 million or 19%. During 2013 loan growth has exceeded $102 million, while securities have remained virtually unchanged. Earning asset growth continues to be funded principally by deposits, which increased $224.6 million or 18% to $1.46 billion at June 2013. Demand deposits totaled $472.9 million at June 2013, $105.2 million or 29% higher than June 2012. The change in demand deposits compared to December 2012 reflects a seasonal decline of approximately $80 million in municipal deposits.

“The expansion of our footprint coupled with a continued commitment to our traditional markets, has allowed us to capitalize on the movement of consumers and businesses to “shop local”. For our organization, this has been a key driver of growth, as community banks are the local alternative to regional and national banks. Our ability to deliver superior service and local decision making has been central to our growth and strong financial returns,” noted Mr. O’Connor.

Asset quality measures remained strong, as non-performing assets at June 2013 were $3.8 million or 0.22% of total assets, slightly higher than the $3.5 million or 0.22% of total assets at December 31, 2012, and $3.3 million or 0.24% of total assets at June 2012.  The allowance for loan losses increased $1.6 million to $15.1 million from $13.6 million, as of June 2012. The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.68% at June 2013, compared to 1.81% at December 2012 and 2.08% at June 2012.

Stockholders’ equity grew $5.0 million to $117.6 million at June 2013, compared to $112.6 million at June 2012. The growth reflects earnings, as well as the capital raised in connection with the Dividend Reinvestment Plan, partially offset by dividends to shareholders and a decline in the fair value of available for sale investment securities.  Overall, Tier 1 Capital increased to $140.7 million, 12% higher

than the June 2012 level.  The Company’s capital ratios, although declining with our growth in assets, continue to exceed all regulatory minimums, and the Bank remains classified as well capitalized.

Challenges & Opportunities

“We continue to face challenges associated with a fragile economic recovery, ever increasing regulations, and the current interest rate environment. During the quarter, longer term interest rates rose dramatically as signs of economic improvement led to speculation the Federal Reserve would slowdown or stop its bond buying program. Over time, this increase in longer term rates should provide some relief to net interest margin compression as new loans are funded and securities are reinvested at higher rates. However, in the short term, the fair value of our available for sale securities declined, resulting in net unrealized losses and a reduction in shareholders’ equity,” noted Mr. O’Connor.

“We continually refine our balance sheet management strategies for the eventuality of rising rates. These alternatives include pursuing stable core deposits, extending the maturities of certain borrowings, shortening the maturities of investment holdings and emphasizing shorter term or adjustable rate loans.  Each approach has a cost. For deposit growth, we need to add branches and continue to invest in people and technology. The other strategies either increase current period interest expense or provide lower interest income levels. Over time, the cost of these strategies should provide long term benefit,” commented Mr. O’Connor.

“New regulations required under Dodd-Frank continue to be issued and in July 2013, the regulatory agencies issued final capital rules under Basel III which become effective for our Company in January 2015. The final rules, while more favorable to community banks like ours, require that all banks maintain higher levels of capital. We believe our current capital levels would meet these new requirements. These factors taken together present formidable challenges to the banking industry,” concluded Mr. O’Connor.
