CENTURY BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES RECORD EARNINGS FOR Q2 2017, UP 30.7%; ASSET

GROWTH TO $4.5 BB; REGULAR DIVIDEND DECLARED

Medford, MA, July 11, 2017—Century Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:CNBKA) (www.centurybank.com) (“the Company”) today announced net income of $14,253,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, or $2.56 per Class A share diluted, an increase of 23.4% compared to net income of $11,549,000, or $2.07 per Class A share diluted, for the same period a year ago. Total assets increased 1.9% from $4.46 billion at December 31, 2016 to $4.55 billion at June 30, 2017. For the quarter ended June 30, 2017, net income totaled $8,157,000 or $1.47 per Class A share diluted, an increase of 30.7% compared to net income of $6,241,000, or $1.12 per Class A share diluted, for the same period a year ago.

Net interest income totaled $42.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $36.1 million for the same period in 2016. The 17.9% increase in net interest income for the period is primarily due to an increase in average earning assets and an increase in the net interest margin. The net interest margin increased from 2.16% on a fully taxable equivalent basis in 2016 to 2.23% for the same period in 2017. This was primarily the result of an increase in rates on earning assets and prepayment penalties collected. The average balances of earning assets increased by 12.9% combined with a similar increase in average deposits. Also, interest expense increased 18.2% primarily as a result of an increase in rates and an increase in deposit balances.

The provision for loan losses increased by $90,000 from $800,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $890,000 for the same period in 2017, primarily as a result of an increase in loan growth offset, somewhat, by changes in historical loss factors. The Company’s effective tax rate increased from 0.7% for the first six months of 2016 to 4.7% for the same period in 2017 primarily as a result of an increase in taxable income.

At June 30, 2017, total equity was $254.6 million compared to $240.0 million at December 31, 2016. The Company’s equity increased primarily as a result of earnings and a decrease in other comprehensive loss, net of taxes, offset somewhat by dividends paid. Other comprehensive loss, net of taxes, decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in unrealized losses on securities transferred from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity, a decrease in unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale, and amortization of the pension liability.

The Company’s leverage ratio stood at 6.31% at June 30, 2017, compared to 6.28% at December 31, 2016. The increase in the leverage ratio was due to an increase in stockholders’ equity, offset somewhat by an increase in quarterly average assets. Book value as of June 30, 2017 was $45.73 per share compared to $43.11 at December 31, 2016.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses was $25.3 million or 1.24% of loans outstanding at June 30, 2017, compared to $24.4 million or 1.27% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2016 and $23.9 million or 1.32% of loans outstanding at June 30, 2016. The change in the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding, when compared to June 30, 2016, was primarily due to changes in portfolio composition and lower historical loss rates. Non-performing assets totaled $1.1 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 2016 and $1.5 million at June 30, 2016.

The Company’s Board of Directors voted a regular quarterly dividend of 12.00 cents ($0.12) per share on the Company’s Class A common stock, and 6.00 cents ($0.06) per share on the Company’s Class B common stock. The dividends were declared payable August 15, 2017 to stockholders of record on August 1, 2017.

The Company, through its subsidiary bank, Century Bank and Trust Company, a state chartered full service commercial bank, operating twenty-seven full-service branches in the Greater Boston area, offers a full range of Business, Personal and Institutional Services.

Century Bank and Trust Company is a member of the FDIC and is an Equal Housing Lender.
