UNITED FINANCIAL BANCORP, INC.
ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS
AND QUARTERLY DIVIDEND


GLASTONBURY, Conn., April 19, 2016United Financial Bancorp, Inc. (“United Financial” or "The Company”) (NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market: “UBNK”), the holding company for United Bank ("The Bank”), announced results for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

The Company had net income of $11.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to net income for the linked quarter of $9.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share. Operating net income (Non-GAAP) for the first quarter of 2016 was $10.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to $11.3 million, or $0.23 per diluted share for the linked quarter. Operating net income is adjusted for purchase accounting impacts and net gain on sale of securities. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2016, operating income was also adjusted for Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston ("FHLBB") prepayment penalties. The Company reported net income of $13.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

"In the first quarter of 2016, linked quarter annualized growth included a 13% increase in demand deposits, 9% growth in total deposits, and a seven basis point expansion in the net interest margin. Non-interest expense to average assets declined to 2.03% on an operating basis and asset quality remained excellent. Tangible book value increased by 5% compared to the linked quarter (annualized) as we announced our 40th consecutive dividend payment," stated William H. W. Crawford, IV, Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank. "Given the interest rate environment, we believe execution on the aforementioned key variables give us the best opportunity to continue building long term shareholder value."

"While volatile interest rates reduced mortgage banking income and headline Company profitability in the first quarter of 2016, management is focused on growing revenue centered in net interest income and core fee income. I remain bullish on United Financial Bancorp, Inc.'s outlook for 2016 earnings and tangible book value growth," remarked Mr. Crawford. "I want to thank my fellow executives, teammates, and directors for their continued commitment to serving our customers and communities."

Financial Highlights
Return on average assets (ROA) of 0.76%
Return on average equity (ROE) of 7.59%
Net Interest Margin (NIM) increased to 3.09% from 3.02% in the linked quarter
Operating Non-Interest Expense/Average Assets (NIE/AA) of 2.03% for the quarter (annualized)

Balance Sheet

Total assets at March 31, 2016 increased by $90.7 million to $6.3 billion from $6.2 billion at December 31, 2015. At March 31, 2016, total loans were $4.6 billion, representing an increase of $34.9 million from the linked quarter. Despite the typical softness experienced in the first quarter in general, total commercial loans increased by $38.5 million, or 6% annualized. Residential mortgages declined during the first quarter of 2016 by $3.6 million, reflecting the Company's strategy to reduce on-balance sheet exposure to residential mortgage loans.

During the first quarter of 2016, in response to a flatter yield curve, lower rates, and in an effort to improve the earnings profile of the investment portfolio for the remainder of 2016, the Company took actions to restructure certain FHLBB borrowings and securities resulting in a gain on sale of securities and an offsetting debt extinguishment expense.

Deposits totaled $4.5 billion at March 31, 2016 and increased by $97.0 million, or 2%, from $4.4 billion at December 31, 2015, reflecting a $21.1 million, or 3%, increase in non-interest bearing deposits and a $75.8 million, or 2% increase in interest-bearing deposits.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased by $2.7 million to $43.4 million during the first quarter of 2016 from the linked quarter. Interest income totaled $53.6 million in the first quarter of 2016 and increased by $3.9 million, or 7.8%, in comparison to the linked quarter. This increase largely contributed to the growth in interest-earning assets of $61.4 million, or 1%, during the quarter. Of note, average interest-earning assets increased by $274.2 million, or 5%, from the linked quarter reflective of late fourth quarter 2015 loan portfolio purchases. Interest expense increased by $1.2 million to $10.2 million during the first quarter of 2016 from $9.0 million in the linked quarter. On an operating basis, net interest income increased by $2.4 million to $41.5 million during the first quarter of 2016 from the linked quarter.

The GAAP tax equivalent net interest margin for the first quarter of 2016 increased by seven basis points to 3.09% compared to 3.02% for the linked quarter. The yield on interest-earning assets increased by 13 basis points in the first quarter of 2016 to 3.79% as compared to the linked quarter, and the cost of total interest bearing liabilities increased by six basis points to 0.83% in the quarter ending March 31, 2016 from 0.77% in the linked quarter, in significant part due to the increase in short-term borrowing rates during the first quarter of 2016. The operating net interest margin, which excludes the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, increased by five basis points to 2.95% in the first quarter of 2016 from 2.90% in the linked quarter.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses decreased by 29%, or $1.1 million, to $2.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to $3.8 million for the linked quarter due to a slowing of the migration of purchased loans to the covered portfolio for the current period as compared to the linked quarter. Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2016 increased by $351,000 to $1.1 million, or 0.09% annualized as a percentage of average loans

outstanding, from $724,000, or 0.06% annualized as a percentage of average loans outstanding, in the linked quarter. Factors considered in the provision for loan losses include, but are not limited to, historical charge-offs, the composition of the portfolio, the current level of non-performing loans and charge-offs, local economic and credit conditions, the direction of real estate values and delinquency trends.

Non-Interest Income

Total non-interest income decreased by $1.7 million, or 21%, to $6.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 from $8.5 million in the linked quarter. Operating non-interest income, which excludes the impact of gains on the sales of securities, decreased by $2.7 million to $5.3 million for the first quarter of 2016. The decrease in the first quarter's operating non-interest income was driven primarily from a $1.4 million decline in loan level hedge income associated with the lower commercial loan originations during the quarter, as well as the $1.6 million decline in the mortgage servicing rights valuation as compared to the linked quarter as a result of the decline in long-term interest rates.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 totaled $33.8 million and decreased by $1.5 million, or 4%, from the linked quarter, while operating non-interest expense has been flat for the last three consecutive quarters. Operating non-interest expense excluded the impact of one-time expenses recognized in the quarter ended December 31, 2015 that did not repeat in the current period and the one-time prepayment penalty to the FHLBB during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The only significant variance in operating non-interest expense during the quarter was the $2.2 million decline in professional fees as compared to the linked quarter due to a normalization after recognizing expenses associated with the prior period loan purchases. The Company's cost structure continues to be favorable with non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets reported at 2.15% and operating non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets reported at 2.03% for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. On April 18, 2016, the Company executed a reorganization plan designed to centralize operational responsibilities into the back office, thereby allowing our sales staff to better serve our customers. As a result, the reorganization is expected to save the Company approximately $3.0 million (pre-tax) annually and approximately $1.5 million (pre-tax) of expenses are anticipated to be incurred in the second quarter.

Asset Quality

Non-performing assets decreased by $1.5 million to $37.1 million at March 31, 2016 from $38.6 million at December 31, 2015. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets as compared to the linked quarter decreased to 0.59% at March 31, 2016. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total covered loans outstanding remained flat at 1.07% at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Company maintains a disciplined approach to asset quality and will not match extremely favorable pricing or underwriting and structure pressures from competitor banks if those considerations do not meet the Company's asset quality and return standards.

Capital

The Company reported Tangible Common Equity ("TCE") of $510.9 million, or 8.13% of average assets, at March 31, 2016. Tangible book value per share increased to $10.20 at March 31, 2016 from $10.07 at December 31, 2015, primarily due to the impact of the Company’s net income of $11.9 million, partially offset by the cash dividend payment to shareholders of $0.12 per share, which reduced shareholders' equity by $6.0 million. Book value per share at March 31, 2016 was $12.64.

Dividend

The Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.12 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 29, 2016 and payable on May 11, 2016. This dividend equates to a 4.06% annualized yield based on the $11.81 average closing price of the Company’s common stock in the first quarter of 2016. The Company has paid dividends for 40 consecutive quarters.
