The words or phrases “would be,” “will allow,” “intends to,” “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “look forward,” “should,” “believes” and similar expressions are meant to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are subject to the safe harbor created by such section. The Corporation wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such “forward-looking statements,” which speak only as of the date made, and to advise readers that various factors, including, but not limited to, uncertainty about whether the Corporation and FirstBank Puerto Rico (“FirstBank” or “the Bank”) will be able to fully comply with the written agreement dated June 3, 2010 that the Corporation entered into with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the “FED”) and the order dated June 2, 2010 (the “Order”)that FirstBank entered into with the FDIC and the Office of the Commissioner of Financial Institutions of Puerto Rico that, among other things, require FirstBank to maintain certain capital levels and reduce its special mention, classified, delinquent and non-performing assets; the risk of being subject to possible additional regulatory actions; uncertainty as to the availability of certain funding sources, such as retail brokered CDs; the Corporation’s reliance on brokered CDs and its ability to obtain, on a periodic basis, approval from the FDIC to issue brokered CDs to fund operations and provide liquidity in accordance with the terms of the Order; the risk of not being able to fulfill the Corporation’s cash obligations or resume paying dividends to the Corporation’s stockholders in the future due to the Corporation’s inability to receive approval from the FED to receive dividends from FirstBank or FirstBank’s failure to generate sufficient cash flow to make a dividend payment to the Corporation; the strength or weakness of the real estate markets and of the consumer and commercial credit sectors and their impact on the credit quality of the Corporation’s loans and other assets, including the Corporation’s construction and commercial real estate loan portfolios, which have contributed and may continue to contribute to, among other things, the high levels of non-performing assets, charge-offs and the provision expense and may subject the Corporation to further risk from loan defaults and foreclosures; adverse changes in general economic conditions in the United States and in Puerto Rico, including the interest rate scenario, market liquidity, housing absorption rates, real estate prices and disruptions in the U.S. capital markets, which may reduce interest margins, impact funding sources and affect demand for all of the Corporation’s products and services and the value of the Corporation’s assets; an adverse change in the Corporation’s ability to attract new clients and retain existing ones; a decrease in demand for the Corporation’s products and services and lower revenues and earnings because of the continued recession in Puerto Rico and the current fiscal problems and budget deficit of the Puerto Rico government; uncertainty about regulatory and legislative changes for financial services companies in Puerto Rico, the United States and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, which could affect the Corporation’s financial performance and could cause the Corporation’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from prior results and anticipated or projected results; uncertainty about the effectiveness of the various actions undertaken to stimulate the United States economy and stabilize the United States’ financial markets, and the impact such actions may have on the Corporation’s business, financial condition and results of operations; changes in the fiscal and monetary policies and regulations of the federal government, including those determined by the Federal Reserve System, the FDIC, government-sponsored housing agencies and regulators in Puerto Rico and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands; the risk of possible failure or circumvention of controls and procedures and the risk that the Corporation’s risk management policies may not be adequate; the risk that the FDIC may further increase the deposit insurance premium and/or require special assessments to replenish its insurance fund, causing an additional increase in the Corporation’s non-interest expense; risks of not being able to recover the assets pledged to Lehman Brothers Special Financing, Inc.; the impact on the Corporation’s results of operations and financial condition associated with acquisitions and dispositions; a need to recognize additional impairments on financial instruments or goodwill relating to acquisitions; risks that downgrades in the credit ratings of the Corporation’s long-term senior debt will adversely affect the Corporation’s ability to access necessary external funds; the impact of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act on the Corporation’s businesses, business practices and cost of operations; and general competitive factors and industry consolidation. The Corporation does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any “forward-looking statements” to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements except as required by the federal securities laws. Investors should refer to the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for a discussion of such factors and certain risks and uncertainties to which the Corporation is subject.

Fiscal Year 2015 Highlights During 2015 the Corporation achieved significant milestones in its successful turnaround strategy: Recognized an income tax benefit of $302.9 million in the Q4 2014 related to the reversal of a significant portion of the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets of FirstBank. Received notification from the FDIC that the Consent Order under which FirstBank had been operating since 2010 was terminated effective April 2015. Acquired 10 Puerto Rico branches of Doral Bank, assumed approximately $522 million in deposits related to such branches and purchased approximately $325 million in performing residential mortgage loans through an alliance with a local bank. First BanCorp released its 2015 Dodd -Frank Act Stress Testing Results which show that even in a severely adverse economic environment capital ratios exceed both the regulatory minimum required ratios mandated under Basel III and the well-capitalized thresholds throughout the nine-quarter time horizon. Completed a bulk sale of commercial and construction loans with a book value of $147.5 million, comprised mostly of non-performing and adversely classified loans. The Corporation originated and renewed $3.4 billion in loans across its diversified geographies and lines of business. Year-over-year improvement in operating metrics: Total NPAs declined by $107 million in 2015 and Inflows to nonperforming decreased $133 million compared to 2014 Deposits, net of government and brokered, increased $472 million compared to 2014, Puerto Rico deposits increased $685 million. Brokered certificates of deposit (CDs) decreased by $790 million during 2015. Achieved important market share gains in deposits, branches, mortgages, POS, ATM’s and transaction services while sustaining our loan portfolios share in main market. Solidified our presence in Florida and Eastern Caribbean markets. Net Income of $21.3 million compared to $393.9 million in 2014, which included the $302.9 million impact of the DTA. Non-GAAP pre-tax income adjusted for items not arising from normal operation and certain unusual items increased to $101.6 million in 2015 from $98.6 million in 2014. Due to the macro events in Puerto Rico, financial results were adversely impacted through OTTI adjustments and increased provisioning on government related exposure during the second half of 2015. 5

9 Fourth Quarter 2015 Highlights: PR GOVERNMENT EXPOSURE Total outstanding exposure to the Puerto Rico Government was $382 million with a book value of $361 million as of 4Q 2015, down from $371 million as of 3Q 2015. Investment portfolio outstanding principal of $65.6 million, being carried on books at $28.2 million. Largest government exposure to municipalities supported by assigned tax revenues. In addition, there is $129 million of indirect exposure to the Tourism Development Fund supporting hotel projects. Any inability of the TDF to honor its payment guaranty, for which it has been making payments since 2012, may result in an adverse impact to asset quality metrics. Government tax revenues generated on these projects continue to substantially exceed payments made by the TDF. During 4Q 2015, we recorded a $19.2 million increase in provision for loan losses related to adjustments to qualitative factors applied to direct and indirect commercial loans extended to the Puerto Rico Government (excluding loans to municipalities). We also increased the specific reserve by $1.4 million for an impaired government exposure.

This increase was mainly due to: oA $1.5 million increase in interest income on securities driven by lower prepayments; and oA $1.3 million increase in interest income on commercial and construction loans. This increase was partially offset by: oA $1.0 million decrease in interest income on consumer loans driven by the $38.2 million decrease in the average volume of loans, primarily auto loans. oA $1.5 million decrease in interest expense primarily driven by: oa $0.4 million increase in interest expense on non-brokered CDs, primarily associated with the $68.8 million increase in the average balance; oa $0.4 million increase in interest expense related to the $130.0 million of FHLB; and oa $0.4 million increase in interest expense on brokered CDs. GAAP NIM decreased 12 basis points to 4.07% largely driven by the $405 million increase in average of cash and money market investments. Results of Operations: NET INTEREST INCOME

Excluding non-recurring expense of 2.2 million related to the voluntary early retirement program reflected in employees’ compensation and benefits, non-interest expenses increased by $0.5 million, due to: A $2.2 million increase in the FDIC insurance premium expense as the 2014 fourth quarter earnings rolled out of the core earnings to average assets ratio component of the assessment that considers four quarters of earnings; and A $0.4 million increase in the sales and use tax expense, primarily as a result of the new 4% sales and use tax. This reduction was partially offset by a reduction of $0.6 million in occupancy and equipment and a $0.5 million decrease in printing and mailing costs.

20 Results of Operations: CAPITAL POSITION Capital Ratios (%) Total stockholders’ equity amounted to $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2015, a decrease of $6.8 million from September 30, 2015, mainly driven by a decrease of $23.1 million in other comprehensive income mainly attributable to the $20.5 million decrease in the fair value of U.S. agency MBS and debt securities and the $5.9 million decrease in the fair value of Puerto Rico Government investment securities. This was partially offset by net income of $15.0 million.

25 Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Basis of Presentation Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation may contain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are set forth when management believes they will be helpful to an understanding of the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the text or in the attached tables to the earnings release. Tangible Common Equity Ratio and Tangible Book Value per Common Share The tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures generally used by the financial community to evaluate capital adequacy. Tangible common equity is total equity less preferred equity, goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and other intangibles, such as the purchased credit card relationship intangible. Tangible assets are total assets less goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and other intangibles, such as the purchased credit card relationship intangible. Management and many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Neither tangible common equity nor tangible assets, or the related measures should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders’ equity, total assets, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Corporation calculates its tangible common equity, tangible assets, and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

26 Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Basis of Presentation Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation may contain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are set forth when management believes they will be helpful to an understanding of the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the text or in the attached tables to the earnings release. Adjusted Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income is a non-GAAP performance metric that management believes is useful in analyzing underlying performance trends, particularly in times of economic stress. Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, as defined by management, represents net income (loss) excluding income tax expense (benefit), the provision for loan and lease losses, gains on sale and OTTI of investment securities, fair value adjustments on derivatives, equity in earnings or loss of unconsolidated entity up until the second quarter of 2014 when the value of the investment became zero as well as certain items identified as unusual, non-recurring or non-operating. In addition, from time to time, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income will reflect the omission of revenue or expense items that management judges to be outside of ordinary banking activities or of items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that management believes that a complete analysis of the Corporation’s performance requires consideration also of adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income that excludes such amounts.
