ROCKVILLE FINANCIAL, INC.

ANNOUNCES RECORD CORE OPERATING REVENUE AND ROE

ROCKVILLE, Conn., October 24, 2013 – Rockville Financial, Inc. (“Rockville Financial” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market: “RCKB”), the holding company for Rockville Bank (the “Bank”), today announced net income of $4.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to net income of $4.7 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

“I am pleased to announce that Rockville Financial, Inc. achieved two records with regard to earnings in the third quarter of 2013. The Company reported record core operating revenue and return on equity. Additionally, the Company’s strong loan and deposit growth and flat core operating expense for the past five consecutive quarters reflect Rockville’s strategy for continued organic growth and commitment to enhancement of long term shareholder value,” stated William H. W. Crawford, IV, President and Chief Executive Officer of Rockville Financial, Inc. and Rockville Bank.

“Though the Company continues to invest in areas that will expand revenue, Rockville strives to balance reinvestment in the Company with current period profits, and remains mindful of operating leverage, protecting tangible book value and mitigating interest rate risk. I would like to thank our team of dedicated employees who deliver a superior customer experience every day.”

Earnings in both 2013 and 2012 were affected by non-core income and expense. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures may be found on page F-8.

Operating Results

Rockville Financial reported net income of $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2013, and $0.18 diluted earnings per share. Stable net interest income, effective execution in the secondary market mortgage business, continued success in the financial advisory business and a strong loan level hedging strategy drove record core operating revenue for the quarter. Supporting the net income growth was a disciplined approach to non-interest expense; therefore, while revenue has increased, core operating expenses have been flat for the past five consecutive quarters. The Company reported return on average assets (“ROA”) of 0.85% and return on tangible common equity (“ROTCE”) of 6.36% for the third quarter of 2013.

Total operating revenue increased by $1.2 million, or 6%, in the third quarter compared to the linked quarter primarily driven by the mortgage banking business and the loan level hedge program. The Company sold $68 million of residential mortgage loans in the third quarter of 2013, reporting net gains of $1.7 million as compared to net gains of $1.0 million in the linked quarter. Despite the elevated market volatility and lagging competitor reaction to interest rate increases which narrowed spreads, the Company was able to increase the net gains on sales of loans due to the expertise within our secondary market operation which allowed for opportunistic sales during the third quarter. Our strategy remains to sell longer term fixed rate residential loans into the secondary market, however the Company regularly studies the yield curve landscape and the potential macro-economic factors affecting rates, to decision the pace at which residential mortgages are sold in the secondary market. In determining this pace, considerations include the Company’s interest rate risk position as it relates to margin and balance sheet composition, as well as market spreads and local competition.

Operating revenue continues to be enhanced by diversified revenue sources. The Company began executing loan level hedges in the second quarter of 2013, thereby introducing an important new fee income driver to Rockville’s earnings. For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the loan level hedge program provided $484,000 of additional non-interest income. Since its introduction, the program has produced $658,000 of income over the two quarters. The Company’s investment subsidiary, Rockville Financial Services (“RFS”), also enhanced non-interest income during the quarter by producing $292,000 of non-interest income. While this is a 3% decrease in RFS income from the linked quarter, this business line continues to evolve and has reported four consecutive quarters of substantial fee income since its reorganization in the fourth quarter of 2012. Third quarter RFS income increased by $216,000, or 285%, year-over-year. In fact, between both the financial advisory and loan level hedge programs, non-interest income has increased by $1.1 million over the prior year on a year-to-date basis.

Net interest income was stable and increased slightly by $172,000, or 1%, to $16.9 million in the third quarter compared to the linked quarter, despite a $410,000 decrease in loan prepayment fees. Average earning assets increased by $100 million, or 5%, due to continued business development resulting in commercial loan growth and through strategic actions to expand the available-for-sale investment portfolio.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the third quarter of 2013 decreased by 16 basis points to 3.32%, compared to 3.48% for the second quarter of 2013. The decline in loan fees impacted the tax equivalent net interest margin by 8 basis points. The net interest margin experienced downward pressure during the quarter due to loan yields declining on new originations, particularly observed

in commercial originations as a result of the loan level hedging program and shared national credit growth. Commercial loan yields declined by 18 basis points during the quarter to 4.27%. The loan level hedging program serves as a strong fee generator for the Company, but converts fixed rate assets to floating rate, which typically have a lower yield at inception; the Company added $16 million of floating rate commercial real estate loans in the third quarter 2013. Margin compression was additionally observed in residential loan yields, which declined by 6 basis points from the prior quarter due to adjustable rate mortgage originations that were held for investment on the balance sheet. The yield on the investment portfolio was unchanged from the prior quarter. The margin compression observed in the asset portfolio was partially offset by a 1 basis point reduction in the cost of funds, driven by the continued use of low-cost short term wholesale funding. Wholesale funding costs decreased by 23 basis points during the third quarter to 1.09% from 1.32% in the linked quarter.

The third quarter provision for loan losses increased by $129,000, or 32%, to $532,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 due to growth in the commercial loan portfolio during this time period. Net charge-offs for the third quarter were a nominal $174,000, or 0.04% annualized as a percentage of average loans outstanding. Provision expense continues to be assessed in correlation to the Company’s loan growth and portfolio risk profile.

Non-interest expense decreased $1.1 million, or 7%, on a linked quarter basis, core operating expense increased slightly by $275,000, or 2%, to $14.8 million, thereby reporting flat core operating expense for five consecutive quarters. The decrease in non-interest expense was primarily attributable to decreases in salaries and benefits as well as occupancy and equipment expense, both of which were related to non-core items reported in the second quarter as a result of Company expense actions. The second quarter’s results included $1.4 million of expense related to initiatives to decrease redundant positions across the organization and to execute a lease termination agreement to close a branch location. Salaries and benefits expense did include incremental new hires, such as mortgage loan and commercial banking officers, during the quarter to support expansion in revenue driving divisions. FTE increased to 336 at September 30, 2013 from 329 at June 30, 2013. The third quarter 2013 non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets and the efficiency ratio were 2.71% and 67.18%, respectively, as compared to 3.07% and 76.21% in the second quarter 2013.

Additionally during the third quarter, the Company announced that it will be merging its Employee Stock Ownership Program (“ESOP”), with its Defined Contribution Plan, or 401(k) Plan, effective January 1, 2014. This initiative is expected to save the Company approximately $1.2 million in 2014. The Company continues to evaluate further cost saving efficiencies.

Strong Organic Loan and Deposit Growth;

Decrease Borrowings

Total net loans increased by $38 million, or 2%, during the quarter, driven primarily by commercial loan activity given the Company’s strategy to sell fixed rate residential loans to the secondary market to mitigate interest rate risk when market spreads are advantageous. The Company sold $68 million of residential mortgage loans in the third quarter of 2013. Had the Company not sold residential mortgage loans to the secondary market, net loans would have increased by approximately $106 million, or 7%, during the third quarter.

Expansion of the mortgage banking division continues to be a significant driver in the Company’s results. Rockville introduced mortgage loan officers (“MLOs”) into its mortgage banking business model in 2012 with the hiring of twelve MLOs during the course of the year, and added to that team with five additional MLOs hired in 2013. During the third quarter of 2013 the Company originated residential mortgages totaling $70 million, which is a $7 million decrease from the linked quarter due to the diminishing refinance business. However, the Company increased purchase mortgage originations by 27% to $40 million in the third quarter of 2013 from $31 million in the linked quarter. The Company increased its mortgage market share in the State of Connecticut during the year and is ranked 18th as of September 30, 2013 as reported by the Warren Group, up from a ranking of 21st at year-end 2012.

The Company reported two consecutive quarters of strong linked quarter commercial loan growth of 6% and 7% for the third and second quarters of 2013, respectively. At September 30, 2013, commercial loans totaled $1.03 billion and had increased by $60 million, or 6%, during the quarter, comprised of an $18 million increase in the commercial real estate portfolio, a $26 million increase in the commercial business portfolio and a $16 million increase in the commercial construction portfolio. Average commercial loans grew by $80 million, or 9%, in the third quarter (36% on annualized basis). The commercial pipeline remains strong and the Company continues its disciplined approach to asset quality standards and satisfactory return on capital guidelines. Commercial banking deposits increased to 18.0% of total deposits at September 30, 2013 from 12.6% of total deposits at June 30, 2013. The commercial banking deposits experienced accelerated growth from, and are expected to continue to benefit from, the Company’s recently introduced private banking business. This division increases opportunities for the Company by way of increased relationships with high net worth individuals, professionals and business owners.

The available-for-sale securities portfolio increased $20 million and $129 million for the three-months and nine-months ending September 30, 2013, respectively. Securities purchases in the third quarter consisted of A or better rated government sponsored commercial mortgage-backed securities, adjustable rate collateralized loan obligations, adjustable rate government sponsored asset-backed securities, government sponsored mortgage-backed securities and an investment grade corporate debt security. The Company additionally purchased $10 million of municipal debt securities into the held-to-maturity portfolio, increasing that portfolio to $14 million at quarter-end. Collateralized loan obligations were 14% of the investment portfolio as of September 30, 2013, and were purchased due to the Company’s strategy to opportunistically increase variable rate or short duration assets that have a favorable risk adjusted return on capital. The Company’s municipal bond portfolio and bank-owned life insurance continue to benefit its effective tax rate; however the rate increased to 30.8% in the third quarter of 2013 from 27.5% in the linked quarter.

Deposits totaled $1.69 billion at September 30, 2013, an increase of $105 million, or 7%, from $1.59 billion at June 30, 2013, reflecting a $12 million, or 5%, increase in non-interest bearing deposits and a $93 million, or 7%, increase in interest bearing deposits. Deposits have increased $187 million, or 12%, year-to-date. Deposit growth was enhanced by the first quarter opening of the West Hartford Banking Center, which is reporting total deposits of $105 million at September 30, 2013, up from $25 million at June 30, 2013. Municipal deposits continue to be an important funding source for the Company with a total of $190 million in deposits at September 30, 2013, an increase from $89 million at June 30, 2013. Brokered time deposits remained at $82 million as of quarter-end. Inclusive of commercial money market deposits deemed to be brokered deposits, total brokered deposits were $102 million at September 30, 2013, or 6.0% of total deposits.

The Company’s organic growth strategy will be further enhanced by the opening of two new full-service banking locations in New Haven County, both of which were announced during the third quarter of 2013. The Hamden location is expected to open in the fourth quarter of this year and the anticipated opening of the North Haven branch is the third quarter of 2014.

Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston advances decreased by $80 million to $173 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Other borrowings increased by $4 million to $23 million at quarter-end, and consisted of reverse repurchase agreements with terms of six months and a weighted average cost of 0.45%. The Company continues its philosophy to opportunistically diversify funding sources at the lowest possible cost.

Asset Quality

Third quarter asset quality metrics remain very favorable. Non-performing assets decreased $4.3 million to $14.6 million at September 30, 2013 from $18.9 million at December 31, 2012. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets decreased 29 basis points to 0.66% at September 30, 2013 from 0.95% at December 31, 2012. Loans on non-accrual decreased $3.6 million to $12.5 million at September 30, 2013 from $16.1 million at December 31, 2012. Included in non-accrual loans are non-accruing troubled debt restructurings (TDR). Non-accruing TDRs decreased $1.0 million to $2.1 million at September 30, 2013 from $3.1 million at December 31, 2012. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans decreased 24 basis points to 0.76% at September 30, 2013 from 1.00% at December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans and of total loans outstanding was 149.45% and 1.13%, compared to 115.08% and 1.15% at December 31, 2012, respectively.

Dividend

The Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.10 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on October 28, 2013 and payable on November 4, 2013. This dividend equates to a 3.04% annualized yield based on the $13.17 average closing price of the Company’s common stock in the third quarter of 2013. The Company has paid dividends for 30 consecutive quarters. The dividend payout ratio for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was 57%.

Tangible Book Value

Tangible book value increased by $0.03 during the quarter to $11.14 at September 30, 2013 from $11.11 at June 30, 2013. The stock repurchase program activity during the quarter produced a net $0.04 decline in tangible book value, when considering both cost and share count. The Company remains confident that stock buybacks are an excellent long-term capital management tool which will ultimately lead to increasing return on equity. The negative impact of the Company’s $0.10 dividend was more than offset by the third quarter’s net income and other less significant components to shareholders’ equity.

Stock Repurchase Program

The Company obtained approval and initiated a second buyback plan on May 20, 2013. Under this plan, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to 2,730,026 shares, or 10% of the outstanding shares at the time the plan was approved. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had repurchased 1,059,891 shares at an average cost of $13.13 per share. The average closing price of the Company’s common stock over this time period was $13.18 per share.

The Company repurchased 302,183 shares during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, at an average price of $13.08, which was 117% of the Company’s tangible book value of $11.14. The average closing price during the third quarter was $13.17, or 118% of the Company’s tangible book value. In total, the Company has repurchased 4,011,141 shares as of September 30, 2013, or 14% of total shares outstanding prior to the first repurchase program.
