KALISPELL, MONTANA, April 21, 2016 - Glacier Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: GBCI) reported net income of $28.7 million for the current quarter, an increase of of $1.0 million, or 4 percent, from the $27.7 million of net income for the prior year first quarter. Diluted earnings per share for the current quarter was $0.38 per share, an increase of $0.01, or 3 percent, from the prior year first quarter diluted earnings per share of $0.37. Included in the current quarter was $135 thousand from acquisition-related expenses and $831 thousand of expenses related to the Company’s consolidation of its bank divisions’ core database systems (Core Consolidation Project or “CCP”) including expenses related to the re-issuance of debit cards with chip technology. The Company’s Core Consolidation Project will occur throughout the current year and is expected to be completed by year end. “The first quarter was a nice start to the year for us,” said Mick Blodnick, President and Chief Executive Officer.  “To produce this level of results at a time when we also had significant costs and time allocated to a number of major internal projects is a testament to the great work by our staff this quarter. Although these projects will run through the rest of the year, in the future they will streamline multiple functions and allow us to operate more efficiently,” Blodnick said.

Total investment securities of $3.296 billion at March 31, 2016 decreased $16.5 million, or 50 basis points, during the current quarter and increased $182 million, or 6 percent, from March 31, 2015. The Company continues to selectively purchase investment securities when the Company has excess liquidity. Investment securities represented 36 percent of total assets at March 31, 2016 compared to 36 percent of total assets at December 31, 2015 and 37 percent at March 31, 2015.

The loan portfolio increased $119 million, or 9 percent annualized, during the current quarter. The loan category with the largest dollar and percentage increase during the current quarter was other commercial loans which increased $73.4 million, or 7 percent, of which $35.6 million of the increase was from municipal and SBA loans. Excluding the acquisition of Cañon National Bank (“Cañon”) in October 2015, the loan portfolio increased $350 million, or 7 percent, since March 31, 2015 with $152 million and $150 million of the increase coming from growth in commercial real estate and other commercial loans, respectively. “Our loan growth in the quarter was exceptional especially considering it came in the first quarter of the year,” Blodnick said. “A substantial portion of the growth came from municipal loans, something all of our Banks have worked extremely hard at generating. Hopefully, we can continue to grow the loan portfolio with more of these solid credits.”

__________ 
1 As of March 31, 2016, non-performing assets have not been reduced by U.S. government guarantees of $2.2 million.

Non-performing assets at March 31, 2016 were $80.2 million, an increase of $144 thousand, or 18 basis points, during the current quarter. Non-performing assets at March 31, 2016 decreased $10.5 million, or 12 percent, from a year ago. Early stage delinquencies (accruing loans 30-89 days past due) of $24.0 million at March 31, 2016 increased $4.6 million from the prior quarter and decreased $9.5 million from the prior year first quarter.

The allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”) was $130 million at March 31, 2016, consistent with prior periods. The allowance as a percent of total loans outstanding at March 31, 2016 was 2.50 percent, a slight decrease from 2.55 percent at December 31, 2015. The allowance as a percent of total loans in the current quarter decreased 27 basis points from 2.77 percent at March 31, 2015 which was driven primarily by loan growth, stabilizing credit quality, and no allowance carried over from the Cañon acquisition as a result of the acquired loans recorded at fair value.

The regulatory classification of loans is based primarily on collateral type while the Company’s loan segments presented herein are based on the purpose of the loan.

Non-interest bearing deposits of $1.887 billion at March 31, 2016, decreased $31 million, or 2 percent, from the prior quarter which was driven by seasonal fluctuations. Excluding the Cañon acquisition, non-interest bearing deposits increased $122 million, or 7 percent, from March 31, 2015. Core interest bearing deposits of $4.804 billion at March 31, 2016, increased $6.7 million, or 14 basis points, from the prior quarter. The increase in savings and money market accounts during the current quarter offset the decrease in NOW and DDA accounts. Excluding the Cañon acquisition, core interest bearing deposits at March 31, 2016 increased $83.5 million, or 2 percent, from March 31, 2015. Wholesale deposits (i.e., brokered deposits classified as NOW, DDA, money market deposit and certificate accounts) of $325 million at March 31, 2016 increased $95.8 million over the prior quarter and increased $114 million over the prior year first quarter. A portion of the increases were driven by a need to obtain wholesale deposits necessary for the interest rate swap.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”) of $446 million at March 31, 2016 increased $22.5 million, or 5 percent, from the prior quarter and increased $20.3 million, or 5 percent, from the prior year first quarter. Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances of $314 million at March 31, 2016 decreased $80.2 million, or 20 percent, during the current quarter due to stable deposit balances and reduced need for additional borrowings.

Tangible stockholders’ equity of $939 million at March 31, 2016 increased $17.8 million, or 2 percent, from the prior quarter primarily from earnings retention and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. Tangible stockholders’ equity increased $28.9 million, or 3 percent, from a year ago, the result of earnings retention and $15.2 million of Company stock issued in connection with the Cañon acquisition. These two items offset the decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income and increases in goodwill and other intangibles from the acquisition. At March 31, 2016, the tangible book value per common share was $12.33 an increase of $0.22 per share from $12.11 the prior quarter principally due to earnings retention. Tangible book value per common share for March 31, 2016, increased $0.28 per share from the prior year first quarter.

Cash Dividend
On March 30, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share, a $0.01 per share, or 5 percent, increase over the prior quarter dividend. The Company has increased its quarterly dividend 40 times. The dividend was payable April 21, 2016 to shareholders of record April 12, 2016. Future cash dividends will depend on a variety of factors, including net income, capital, asset quality, general economic conditions and regulatory considerations.

Net Interest Income
In the current quarter, interest income of $84.4 million increased $1.2 million, or 1 percent from the prior quarter and increased $6.9 million, or 9 percent, over the prior year first quarter. The increases in interest income over the prior periods were driven primarily by increases in interest income on commercial loans which increased $1.4 million, or 3 percent, over the prior quarter and increased $5.5 million, or 14 percent, over the prior year first quarter and was the result of an increased volume of commercial loans. Interest income of $23.9 million from investment securities increased $152 thousand, or 1 percent, over the prior quarter and increased $924 thousand, or 4 percent, over the prior year first quarter.

The current quarter interest expense of $7.7 million increased $460 thousand, or 6 percent, from the prior quarter and increased $293 thousand from the prior year first quarter. The increases in interest expense were driven by the increase in wholesale deposits and the additional interest expense for an interest rate swap with a notional $100 million that began its accrual period in December 2015. The total cost of funding (including non-interest bearing deposits) for the current quarter was 39 basis points compared to 37 basis points for the prior quarter and 42 basis points in the prior year first quarter.

The Company’s net interest margin as a percentage of earning assets, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the current quarter was 4.01 percent compared to 4.02 percent in the prior quarter. During the current quarter, the earning asset yield increased by 1 basis point and was the result of a 1 basis point increase in loan yields. The cost of funds increased 2 basis points during the current quarter due to increased wholesale deposits and the higher interest expense from the previously mentioned interest rate swap. The Company’s current quarter net interest margin decreased 2 basis points from the prior year first quarter net interest margin of 4.03 percent. The decrease in the net interest margin from the prior year first quarter was the result of a 4 basis points reduction in the yield on earning assets that outpaced the 3 basis points reduction in cost of funding. The yield on earning assets benefited from the shift in earning assets from the lower yielding investment securities to the higher yielding loans; nevertheless it was outpaced by the overall decreased yield on the loan portfolio. “The Company was pleased to

7



maintain a net interest margin above 4 percent for the quarter given the volatile interest rate environment. The increase in overall loan yields and maintaining the low cost of retail deposits supported the quarterly performance of the net interest margin,” said Ron Copher, Chief Financial Officer.

Non-interest Income
Non-interest income for the current quarter totaled $24.3 million, a decrease of $215 thousand, or 1 percent, from the prior quarter and an increase of $1.6 million, or 7 percent, over the same quarter last year. Service fee income of $14.3 million, increased $1.3 million, or 10 percent, from the prior year first quarter driven by the increased number of deposit accounts. Gain on sale of residential loans for the current quarter increased $562 thousand, or 10 percent, from the prior year first quarter. In the prior year first quarter, the Company experienced a strong quarter for sales of residential loans as a result of the refinance activity and the Company’s resource commitment to this line of business has benefited the Company with an even stronger current year first quarter. Other non-interest income of $2.8 million for the current quarter increased $475 thousand, or 20 percent, over the prior quarter primarily due to annual vendor incentives received and a gain on the sale of a bank building. Other non-interest income for the current quarter decreased $302 thousand from the prior year first quarter due to insurance proceeds received in the prior year first quarter from a bank owned life insurance policy. Included in other income was operating revenue of $11 thousand from OREO and a gain of $203 thousand from the sale of OREO, a combined total of $214 thousand for the current quarter compared to $239 thousand for the prior quarter and $417 thousand for the prior year first quarter.

Compensation and employee benefits for the current quarter increased by $1.0 million, or 3 percent, from the prior quarter as a result of an increased number of employees from the Cañon acquisition and annual salary increases. Compensation and employee benefits for the current quarter increased by $4.7 million, or 15 percent, from the prior year first quarter due to the increased number of employees from the Community Bank, Inc. (“CB”) acquisition in February of 2015 and the Cañon acquisition, annual salary increases, and an increase in the number of employees. Current quarter occupancy and equipment expense increased $616 thousand, or 10 percent, from the prior year first quarter as a result of added costs associated with the acquisitions. The current quarter data processing expense increased $822 thousand, or 32 percent, from the prior year first quarter primarily from expenses associated with CCP and expenses from the Cañon acquisition. The current quarter OREO expense of $390 thousand was a decrease of $368 thousand from the prior year first quarter and included $136 thousand of operating expense, $55 thousand of fair value write-downs, and $199 thousand of loss from the sales of OREO. Current quarter other expenses of $10.6 million decreased by $1.1 million, or 10 percent, from the prior quarter. The prior quarter included professional expenses associated with the Cañon acquisition and expenses connected with equity investments in New Markets Tax Credit (“NMTC”) projects. Federal and state income tax expense of $9.4 million in the current

8



quarter increased $1.0 million from the prior quarter and was primarily the result of the NMTC credits recognized in the prior quarter. Current quarter other expenses increased $625 thousand, or 6 percent, over the prior year first quarter with increases related to CCP and increased expenses from recent acquisitions, albeit several areas experienced decreases including outside services, which decreased as a result of acquisition-related expenses in the prior year first quarter.

Efficiency Ratio
Although there were increased expenses in the current quarter related to CCP, the efficiency ratio for the current quarter of 56.53 percent remained stable compared to 56.52 percent in the prior quarter with minimal changes in the income and expense items related to the efficiency ratio. The current quarter efficiency ratio of 56.53 percent compares to 54.80 percent in the prior year first quarter. The 1.73 percent increase in the efficiency ratio resulted primarily from increased compensation expense from recent acquisitions and increased salaries along with increased expenses related to CCP, which outpaced the increases in net interest income and non-interest income for the same period.
