SECOND QUARTER REPORT − 2013 Dear Fellow Shareholders: We believe an organization’s value is dependent upon its ability and willingness to take action to reshape its future. In the face of challenging economic and regulatory environments, as well as changing customer behaviors, we capitalized on opportunities to further strengthen our franchise for long-term sustainable growth. Last quarter, we announced the closure of the Phillips and Stratton branches. This was an indication of our commitment to strengthen our franchise for its long-term success. It was in that same spirit that we entertained an offer to sell all five of our Franklin County, Maine, branches. On May 29, 2013, we announced the sale of the Farmington, Kingfield, Phillips, Rangeley, and Stratton branches, and that they would remain open under the ownership of a local bank. This allows us to focus our resources on markets that fit our overall strategic objectives, while the customers and communities in Franklin County continue to have access to a local bank. Equally important as strategically positioning Camden National Corporation for future success is the daily work of banking that is the core focus of our organization and its employees. During the second quarter of 2013 we recorded net income of $6.3 million, down slightly from $6.4 million recorded during the same period a year ago, and year-to-date earnings totaled $12.0 million, representing an 8% decline compared to the first six months of 2012. Our year-to-date performance reflects the ‘‘ramping up’’ of the 14 branches we acquired in October 2012. We are pleased with the progress and contribution the locations are making to our organization. We recognized that this investment would impact our financial results in the short-term with higher operating expenses, which increased 20% to $32.1 million for the first half of 2013 compared to a year ago. The benefits include approximately 30,000 new customers in important Maine markets as well as revenue growth opportunities. Net interest income increased 5% to $38.4 million for the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. This revenue growth is a combination of lower funding costs resulting from the $287.7 million of acquired core deposits and year-to-date loan growth of $38.7 million, or annualized growth of 5%. Non-interest income of $12.7 million was 16% higher than the six month period in 2012, driven by higher service charges primarily from acquired accounts. Asset quality continued to improve during 2013, with a reduction in non-performing assets as a percent of total loans to 1.63%, which compares favorably to 1.83% recorded a year ago. Net charge-offs to total loans of 0.14% is favorable to 0.21% recorded a year ago and compares favorably to our peers. This improvement reflects the stabilization of our economy, and the hard work of our employees who ensure that we properly underwrite loans and are repaid by borrowers. During the second quarter, we announced a dividend of $0.27 per share, which results in a dividend yield of 3.04%. As validation of our commitment to the values of Camden National, including a strong corporate governance process, our organization was recognized for the second year in a row as one of ‘‘America’s Most Trustworthy Corporations’’ by Forbes magazine. Camden National Corporation was one of only 27 corporations to be named to the list two years in a row. Your support of Camden National Corporation is appreciated. Sincerely, Gregory A. Dufour President and Chief Executive Officer CamdenNational.com | 800-860-8821
