FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Washington Trust Reports Second Quarter 2024 Earnings

WESTERLY, R.I., July 22, 2024 (PR NEWSWIRE)…Washington Trust Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: WASH), parent company of The Washington Trust Company, today announced second quarter 2024 net income of $10.8 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, compared to net income of $10.9 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024.

“Washington Trust’s second quarter performance reflects our continued focus on successfully managing through current economic conditions, while positioning the company for future growth,” stated Edward O. Handy III, Washington Trust Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “During the quarter, we recorded consistent earnings, maintained credit quality, and managed expenses; we also introduced new technology and invested in a marketing campaign designed to generate deposit growth.”

Selected financial highlights for the second quarter of 2024 include:

•Returns on average equity and average assets for the second quarter were 9.43% and 0.60%, respectively, compared to 9.33% and 0.61%, respectively, for the prior quarter.

•The net interest margin was 1.83% in the second quarter, compared to 1.84% in the preceding quarter.

•Asset and credit quality metrics remain solid. A provision for credit losses of $500 thousand was recognized for the second quarter, down by $200 thousand from the first quarter.

•Wealth management revenues and mortgage banking revenues, our two largest sources of noninterest income, increased by 4% and 10%, respectively, from the preceding quarter.

•Total noninterest expense declined by 1% from the previous quarter, with reductions in salaries and benefits expense.

•Total loans amounted to $5.6 billion, down by 1% from March 31, 2024.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $31.6 million for the second quarter of 2024, down by $80 thousand, or 0.3%, from the first quarter of 2024. The net interest margin was 1.83% for the second quarter, a decrease of 1 basis point from the preceding quarter. Linked quarter changes included:

•Average interest-earning assets increased by $7 million. The yield on interest-earning assets for the second quarter was 4.97%, up by 4 basis points from the preceding quarter.

•Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $11 million, as average in-market deposits increased by $36 million while average wholesale funding balances decreased by $25 million. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the second quarter of 2024 was 3.68%, up by 5 basis points from the preceding quarter.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $16.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, down by $503 thousand, or 3%, from the first quarter of 2024. Included in other noninterest income in the second quarter of 2024 was a net gain of $988 thousand recognized on the sale of a bank-owned operations facility. Included in other noninterest income in the first quarter of 2024 was $2.1 million associated with a litigation settlement. Excluding these items, noninterest income was up by $609 thousand, or 4%, from the preceding quarter. Linked quarter changes included:

•Wealth management revenues amounted to $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2024, up by $340 thousand, or 4%. This included an increase of $190 thousand, or 76%, in transaction-based revenues, concentrated in seasonal tax servicing fee income, as well as an increase of $150 thousand, or 2%, in asset-based revenues. The change in asset-based revenues reflected an increase in the average balance of wealth management assets under administration ("AUA"), which was up by approximately $49 million, or 1%, from the preceding quarter. The end of period AUA balance at June 30, 2024 amounted to $6.8 billion, down by $55 million, or 1%, from March 31, 2024.

•Mortgage banking revenues totaled $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2024, up by $255 thousand, or 10%, reflecting higher realized gains, partially offset by the change in fair value of mortgage loans held for sale and forward loan commitments. Loans sold amounted to $110.1 million in the second quarter of 2024, up by $37.4 million, or 51%. In the second quarter of 2024, 81% of residential real estate loan originations were originated for sale, compared to 76% in the preceding quarter.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $33.9 million for the second quarter of 2024, down by $453 thousand, or 1%, from the first quarter of 2024. Linked quarter changes included:

•Salaries and employee benefits expense amounted to $21.3 million, down by $515 thousand, or 2%. The decrease reflected lower staffing levels and payroll tax expense, partially offset by volume-related increases in mortgage originator commission expense.

•The remaining change in noninterest expense reflected increases in outsourced services and advertising and promotion, partially offset by declines in net occupancy and other expenses.

Income Tax

Income tax expense totaled $3.0 million for the second quarter of 2024, up by $191 thousand from the preceding quarter. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 was 21.8%, up from 20.6% in the preceding quarter, largely due to excess tax expense associated with the settlement of share-based awards in the second quarter of 2024. Based on current federal and applicable state income tax statutes, the Corporation currently expects its full-year 2024 effective tax rate to be approximately 21.2%.

Investment Securities

The securities portfolio totaled $952 million at June 30, 2024, down by $18 million, or 2%, from March 31, 2024, largely due to routine pay-downs. The securities portfolio represented 13% of total assets at both June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024.

You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “assume,” “outlook,” “will,” “should,” and other expressions that predict or indicate future events and trends and which do not relate to historical matters. You should not rely on forward-looking statements, because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. These risks, uncertainties, and other factors may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from the anticipated future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Some of the factors that might cause these differences include the following:

•changes in general business and economic conditions on a national basis and in the local markets in which we operate;

•changes in customer behavior due to political, business, and economic conditions, including inflation and concerns about liquidity;

•interest rate changes or volatility, as well as changes in the balance and mix of loans and deposits;

•changes in loan demand and collectability;

•the possibility that future credit losses are higher than currently expected due to changes in economic assumptions or adverse economic developments;

•ongoing volatility in national and international financial markets;

•reductions in the market value or outflows of wealth management AUA;

•decreases in the value of securities and other assets;

•increases in defaults and charge-off rates;

•changes in the size and nature of our competition;

•changes in legislation or regulation and accounting principles, policies, and guidelines;

•operational risks including, but not limited to, changes in information technology, cybersecurity incidents, fraud, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, and future pandemics;

•regulatory, litigation, and reputational risks; and

•changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements.

In addition, the factors described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as updated by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings submitted to the SEC, may result in these differences. You should carefully review all of these factors, and you should be aware that there may be other factors that could cause these differences. These forward-looking statements were based on information, plans, and estimates at the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.

Supplemental Information - Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Washington Trust's management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of measurements and ratios based on tangible equity and tangible assets, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company's financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures, which may be presented by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Tax-exempt income is converted to an FTE basis using the statutory federal income tax rate adjusted for applicable state income taxes net of the related federal tax benefit. Unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities and changes in fair value on mortgage loans held for sale are excluded from the average balance and yield calculations. Nonaccrual loans, as well as interest recognized on these loans, are included in amounts presented for loans.
