EAST WEST BANCORP REPORTS NET INCOME FOR THIRD QUARTER 2021
OF $225 MILLION AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE OF $1.57
Pasadena, California – October 21, 2021 – East West Bancorp, Inc. (“East West” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: EWBC), parent company of East West Bank, today reported its financial results for the third quarter of 2021. Third quarter 2021 net income was $225.4 million, or $1.57 per diluted share; return on average assets was 1.46%, and return on average equity was 15.75%.
“This was another quarter of outstanding results. Our total loans reached a record $40.5 billion as of September 30, 2021. Loans grew by 11% annualized from June 30, 2021, and by 11% from September 30, 2020, excluding the impact of the Paycheck Protection Program. This growth has come from all of our major loan portfolios of commercial, residential mortgage and commercial real estate,” stated Dominic Ng, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of East West.
“Total deposits reached a record $53.4 billion as of September 30, 2021, driven by excellent growth in demand deposits. This has transformed our deposit mix. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits now make up 43% of total balances, compared with 36% a year ago.”
“Our robust organic balance sheet growth drove a 21% annualized increase in revenue quarter-over-quarter, even as interest rates remained low. This revenue expansion was achieved while maintaining solid expense discipline, resulting in adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income1 growth of 26% annualized from the second quarter,” continued Ng. “Overall, we earned an attractive return on average tangible equity2 of 17.25% in the third quarter of 2021.”
“We are looking forward to finishing the year on a high note, and extending the momentum and excellent performance from 2021 into continued growth and success in 2022,” concluded Ng.

BALANCE SHEET
•Record Assets – Total assets reached $61.0 billion as of September 30, 2021, up by $1.1 billion, or 7% annualized, from $59.9 billion as of June 30, 2021. Year-over-year, total assets grew 21% from $50.4 billion as of September 30, 2020.
Third quarter 2021 average interest-earning assets of $58.2 billion grew by $3.3 billion, or 24% linked quarter annualized. The growth in average interest-earning assets mainly consisted of a $2.0 billion increase in average interest-bearing cash and deposits with banks, a $785.7 million increase in average available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities, and a $337.9 million increase in average loans. Excluding Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans, average loans grew by $1.1 billion.
•Record Loans – Total loans reached $40.5 billion as of September 30, 2021, up by $408.4 million, or 4% annualized, from $40.1 billion as of June 30, 2021.

During the third quarter of 2021, $645.0 million of PPP loans outstanding were forgiven by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). PPP loans totaled $807.3 million as of September 30, 2021. Year-over-year, total loans, excluding PPP, grew 11% from $35.7 billion as of September 30, 2020.
Third quarter 2021 average loans of $40.0 billion grew by $337.9 million, or 3% linked quarter annualized. Excluding PPP loans, average loans grew by $1.1 billion, or 12% annualized, from the second quarter of 2021. The strongest growth was from average C&I loans excluding PPP, which increased 16% linked quarter annualized, followed by residential mortgage loans, which also increased 16% linked quarter annualized. Average total CRE loans grew by 5% linked quarter annualized.
•Record Deposits – Total deposits reached $53.4 billion as of September 30, 2021, up by $773.6 million, or 6% annualized, from $52.6 billion as of June 30, 2021, and up 28% year-over-year from $41.7 billion as of September 30, 2020. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits reached a record $23.2 billion as of September 30, 2021, up by $1.4 billion, or 25% annualized, from $21.8 billion as of June 30, 2021, and up 55% year-over-year from $14.9 billion as of September 30, 2020.

Third quarter 2021 average deposits of $53.5 billion grew by $3.3 billion, or 26% linked quarter annualized. Growth in the third quarter was led by noninterest-bearing demand deposits, which increased by $3.5 billion or 69% linked quarter annualized. Time deposits decreased quarter-over-quarter, reflecting run-off of higher rate certificates of deposit.

OPERATING RESULTS
Third Quarter Earnings – Third quarter 2021 net income was $225.4 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, compared with $224.7 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021.
Third Quarter 2021 Compared to Second Quarter 2021
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income (“NII”) totaled $395.7 million, an increase of 20% annualized from $376.5 million. Net interest margin (“NIM”) of 2.70% decreased by five basis points from 2.75%.
•Excluding the impact of PPP loans, adjusted NII4 totaled $380.5 million, an increase of 21% annualized from $361.1 million. PPP loans contributed $15.2 million to NII in the third quarter, compared with $15.4 million in the second quarter.
•NII growth reflected growth in average balances of loans, securities and other earning assets, as well as the benefit of a lower cost of funds, partially offset by lower yields on earning assets.
•Adjusted NIM4 of 2.64% declined by nine basis points from 2.73%. The quarter-over-quarter adjusted NIM compression was largely due to the $2.0 billion growth in average interest-bearing cash and deposits with banks, which earned an average yield of 0.25% in the third quarter. Strong deposit growth in excess of loan growth drove the increase in these assets.
•The third quarter adjusted average loan yield4 of 3.56% was two basis points lower than 3.58% for the second quarter.
•The average cost of funds of 0.14% decreased by four basis points from 0.18%. This reflected growth in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, the payoff of higher-cost FHLB advances that matured during the second quarter, and a continued decline in the cost of interest-bearing deposits.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $73.1 million in the third quarter, up $4.7 million, or 7%, from $68.4 million in the second quarter.
•Quarter-over-quarter, deposit account fees grew, due to growth in treasury management services, and gains on sale of SBA loans increased, due to a higher volume of SBA 7A loans sold. This was offset by decreases in lending fees and wealth management fees.
•Interest rate contracts (“IRC”) and other derivative income was $7.2 million in the third quarter, compared to a loss of $3.2 million in the second quarter. The quarter-over-quarter increase was due to a favorable change in credit valuation adjustment, which reflected an increase in long-term benchmark interest rates, as well as higher customer-driven IRC revenue.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $205.4 million. Third quarter noninterest expense consisted of $166.7 million of adjusted noninterest expense5, $38.0 million in amortization of tax credit and other investments, and $0.7 million in amortization of core deposit intangibles.
•Adjusted noninterest expense of $166.7 million increased by 3% from $161.5 million in the second quarter. The largest quarter-over-quarter change was in other operating expense, which increased to $21.0 million, compared with $17.9 million in the second quarter, due to higher loan-related expenses and charitable contributions.
•Amortization of tax credit and other investments totaled $38.0 million, compared with $27.3 million in the second quarter. The quarter-over-quarter change in the amortization of tax credits and other investments partially reflects the impact of investments that closed in the third quarter. For the fourth quarter, the Company expects the amortization of tax credit and other investments to be approximately $30 million.
•The adjusted efficiency ratio5 was 35.6% in the third quarter, compared with 36.3% in the second quarter.
TAX RELATED ITEMS
Third quarter 2021 income tax expense was $48.0 million and the effective tax rate was 17.5%. Year-to-date through the third quarter of 2021, the effective tax rate was 16%. For the full year, the Company expects the effective tax rate to be approximately 17%.
ASSET QUALITY
Quarter-over-quarter, nonperforming assets decreased by 24%, to 0.28% of total assets, and criticized loans were down 2%, to 2.50% of loans held-for-investment (“HFI”). The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) totaled $560.4 million, or 1.38% of loans HFI, as of September 30, 2021, compared with $585.7 million, or 1.46% of loans HFI, as of June 30, 2021.
1
•Quarter-over-quarter, the ALLL decreased by $25.3 million, and the ALLL coverage ratio of loans HFI decreased by eight basis points. The change in the ALLL largely reflects an improved macroeconomic forecast as of September 30, 2021, compared with June 30, 2021. Consequently, the Company recorded a negative $10.0 million provision for credit losses during the third quarter of 2021.
•Third quarter 2021 net charge-offs were $13.5 million, or annualized 0.13% of average loans HFI, essentially unchanged from $13.3 million, or annualized 0.13% of average loans HFI, for the second quarter of 2021.
•Quarter-over-quarter, nonperforming assets decreased by $53.1 million, or 24%, and the nonperforming asset ratio improved by 10 basis points. As of September 30, 2021, nonperforming assets were $172.6 million, or 0.28% of total assets, compared with $225.7 million, or 0.38% of total assets, as of June 30, 2021.
•Quarter-over-quarter, criticized loans decreased by $21.7 million, or 2%, and the criticized loans ratio improved by eight basis points. As of September 30, 2021, criticized loans totaled $1,010 million, or 2.50% of loans HFI, compared with $1,032 million, or 2.58% of loans HFI, as of June 30, 2021.

In addition, the Company may make forward-looking statements in other documents that it files with, or furnishes to, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and management may make forward-looking statements to analysts, investors, media members and others. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond the Company’s control, such as the future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. These statements relate to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and/or business. They usually can be identified by the use of forward-looking language, such as “likely result in,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “projects,” “intends to,” “assumes,” “believes,” “plans,” “trend,” “objective,” “continues,” “remains,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “can,” or similar expressions, and the negative thereof.

Factors that might cause such differences, some of which are beyond the Company’s control, include, but are not limited to: changes in the U.S. economy, including an economic slowdown, inflation, deflation, housing prices, employment levels, rate of growth and general business conditions; changes in local, regional and global business, economic and political conditions and geopolitical events; the economic, financial, reputational and other impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic and variants thereof and any other pandemic, epidemic or health-related crisis, as well as a deterioration of asset quality and an increase in credit losses due to the COVID-19 global pandemic;

impact of a communications or technology disruption, failure in, or breach of, the Company’s operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties with whom the Company does business, including as a result of cyber-attacks, and other similar matters which could result in, among other things, confidential and/or proprietary information being disclosed or misused and materially impact the Company’s ability to provide services to its clients; adequacy of the Company’s risk management framework, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting; future credit quality and performance, including the Company’s expectations regarding future credit losses and allowance levels; impact of adverse changes to the Company’s credit ratings from major credit rating agencies; impact of adverse judgments or settlements in litigation; impact on the Company’s operations due to political developments, disease pandemics, wars, civil unrest, terrorism or other hostilities that may disrupt or increase volatility in securities or otherwise affect business and economic conditions; heightened regulatory and governmental oversight and scrutiny of the Company’s business practices, including dealings with consumers; impact of reputational risk from negative publicity, fines and penalties and other negative consequences from regulatory violations, legal actions and the Company’s interactions with business partners, counterparties, service providers and other third parties; impact of regulatory enforcement actions; changes in accounting standards as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other regulatory agencies and their impact on critical accounting policies and assumptions; impact of other potential federal tax changes and spending cuts; the Company’s capital requirements and its ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms; impact on the Company’s liquidity due to changes in the Company’s ability to pay dividends and repurchase common stock and to receive dividends from its subsidiaries; any future strategic acquisitions or divestitures; changes in the equity and debt securities markets; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; impact of increased focus on social, environmental and sustainability matters, which may affect the Company’s operations as well as those of its customers and the economy more broadly; significant turbulence or disruption in the capital or financial markets, which could result in, among other things, a reduction in the availability of funding or increases in funding costs, declines in asset values and/or recognition of allowance for credit losses on securities held in the Company’s AFS debt securities portfolio; and impact of climate change, natural or man-made disasters or calamities, such as wildfires, droughts and earthquakes, all of which are particularly common in California, or other events that may directly or indirectly result in a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance.

Risk Factors and the information set forth under Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

In April 2020, the Company started accepting applications under the PPP administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and began to originate loans to qualified small businesses. In January 2021, the Company began processing applications under the second round of the SBA’s PPP in response to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 signed by the President on December 27, 2020. The PPP ended on May 31, 2021. These loans are included in the Company’s C&I portfolio, have an interest rate of one percent and are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. Loan processing fees paid to the Company from the SBA are accounted for as loan origination fees, where net deferred fees are recognized on a straight line basis over the estimated life of the loan as a yield adjustment on the loans. If a loan is paid off or forgiven by the SBA prior to its projected estimated life, the remaining unamortized deferred fees will be recognized as interest income in that period. The Company drew down $1.44 billion from the PPPLF during the second quarter of 2020. The remaining balance of $1.43 billion as of September 2020 was repaid in full during the fourth quarter of 2020. Adjusted loan yield and adjusted net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and three months ended June 30, 2020 exclude the impact of PPP loans. Net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 has also been adjusted for advances from the PPPLF. Management believes that presenting the adjusted average loan yield and adjusted net interest margin provide comparability to prior periods and these non-GAAP financial measures provide supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

3Q21: Summary Income Statement 12 * See slide 17 for noninterest income detail by category. Comments Noninterest income: Mark-to-market (“MTM”) adjustments in interest rate contracts (“IRC”) & other derivative income amounted to $2.5mm in 3Q21, vs. $(5mm) in 2Q21. These primarily related to Q-o-Q changes in the credit valuation adjustment, reflecting movement of long-term benchmark interest rates, which were higher as of 9.30.21 vs. 6.30.21. Amortization of tax credit & other investments in 3Q21 totaled $38mm, vs. $27mm in 2Q21: partially reflects impact of investments that closed in 3Q. For 4Q21, expecting amortization of tax credit & other investments to be approx. $30mm. Tax rate: 9-mos YTD 2021 effective tax rate was 16%. For the full year 2021, expecting the effective tax rate to be approx. 17%. ** See reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the appendix and in the Company’s Earnings Press Releases. 3Q21 vs. 2Q21 $ in millions, except per share data & ratios 3Q21 2Q21 $ Change % Change Net interest income (ex.

24 Appendix: GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation EAST WEST BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION ($ in thousands) (unaudited) In April 2020, the Company started accepting applications under the PPP administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and began to originate loans to qualified small businesses. In January 2021, the Company began processing applications under the second round of the SBA’s PPP in response to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 signed by the President on December 27, 2020. The PPP ended on May 31, 2021. These loans are included in the Company’s C&I portfolio, have an interest rate of one percent and are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. Loan processing fees paid to the Company from the SBA are accounted for as loan origination fees, where net deferred fees are recognized on a straight line basis over the estimated life of the loan as a yield adjustment on the loans. If a loan is paid off or forgiven by the SBA prior to its projected estimated life, the remaining unamortized deferred fees will be recognized as interest income in that period. The Company drew down $1.44 billion from the PPPLF during the second quarter of 2020. The remaining balance of $1.43 billion as of September 2020 was repaid in full during the fourth quarter of 2020. Adjusted loan yield and adjusted net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and three months ended June 30, 2020 exclude the impact of PPP loans. Net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 has also been adjusted for advances from the PPPLF. Management believes that presenting the adjusted average loan yield and adjusted net interest margin provide comparability to prior periods and these non-GAAP financial measures provide supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance.
