Excluding uninsured super-core deposits of approximately $2.6 billion, remaining uninsured deposits were approximately 17-20% of total deposits with immediate liquidity coverage of 224%. • Cash and borrowing capacity totaled $2.6 billion (immediately available) plus unpledged securities (two-day availability) of $576.0 million for total liquidity within two-days of $3.2 billion (85% of total uninsured deposits).

Priscilla Sims Brown, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are in the midst of turning over an older balance sheet as our lower yielding residential loans, multi-family loans and securities roll off over the next twelve to eighteen months and are replaced with higher yielding loans and PACE securities. When paired with our deposit franchise, I am excited about our prospects for margin expansion during 2024.” 1 1 Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure are set forth on the last page of the financial information accompanying this press release and may also be found on our website, www.amalgamatedbank.com.


 
Third Quarter Earnings Net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $22.3 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, compared to $21.6 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023. The $0.7 million increase for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the preceding quarter was primarily driven by a $1.9 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, a $0.7 million increase in net interest income, and a $0.2 million decrease in non-interest expense, offset by an increase in net losses on sales of available for sale securities of $0.8 million, and a $1.0 million increase in income tax expense. Core net income excluding the impact of solar tax equity investments (non-GAAP)1 for the third quarter of 2023 was $23.3 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, compared to $22.0 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023. Excluded from core net income for the third quarter of 2023 were $1.7 million of pre-tax losses on sales of securities, $0.6 million of pre-tax gains on subordinated debt repurchases, and $0.3 million in severance costs. Excluded from the second quarter of 2023 were $0.3 million of pre-tax losses on the sale of securities and $0.3 million in severance costs. Net interest income was $63.7 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $63.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. Loan interest income increased $4.2 million driven by a $111.9 million increase in average loan balances coupled with a 23 basis point increase in loan yields. Interest income on securities increased $0.6 million driven by a 9 basis point increase in securities yield offset by a decrease in the average balance of securities of $51.5 million. The increase in interest income was offset by higher interest expense on total interest-bearing deposits of $4.3 million driven by a 30 basis point increase in cost and an increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits of $219.3 million. The changes in deposit costs were primarily related to increased rates on select non-time deposit products and also a 99 basis point increase in the cost of time deposits. Net interest margin was 3.29% for the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 4 basis points from 3.33% in the second quarter of 2023. The modest decrease is largely due to increased rates and average balances of interest-bearing liabilities, primarily costs for deposits. No prepayment penalties were earned in loan income in the second or third quarter of 2023. Provision for credit losses totaled $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. Provision expense is primarily driven by portfolio growth, certain individual reserves, and $2.0 million of solar charge-offs, offset by improvements in macro economic forecasts used in the CECL model and releases of reserves for lower unfunded exposures. Core non-interest income excluding the impact of solar tax equity investments (non-GAAP)1 was $7.8 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in Trust Department fees and miscellaneous fee income. Core non-interest expense (non-GAAP)1 for the third quarter of 2023 was $37.0 million, a decrease of $0.2 million from the second quarter of 2023. This was mainly driven by a $0.6 million decrease in professional fees, offset by a $0.4 million increase in data processing expense primarily as a result of a sales tax credit recognized in the previous quarter. Our provision for income tax expense was $8.8 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $7.8 million for the second quarter of 2023. The increase is driven by higher pre-tax earnings in the quarter and also reflects a higher effective tax rate for the year. As a result, our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2023 was 28.4%, compared to 26.5% for the second quarter of 2023. Our full year annual estimated tax rate is expected to approximate 27.4%. 2


 
Balance Sheet Quarterly Summary Total assets were $7.9 billion at September 30, 2023, compared to $7.8 billion at June 30, 2023, in keeping with our strategy to keep our balance sheet flat. Notable changes within individual balance sheet line items include a $113.0 million increase in loans receivable, net of deferred loan origination costs, funded mainly by a $88.7 million decrease in available- for-sale investment securities. Additionally, deposits excluding Brokered CDs increased by $172.8 million, while Brokered CDs decreased $76.6 million. The net increase in deposits is primarily reflected by a corresponding $74.5 million increase in cash. Total loans receivable, net of deferred loan origination costs at September 30, 2023 were $4.4 billion, an increase of $113.0 million, or 2.7%, compared to June 30, 2023. The increase in loans is primarily driven by a $101.0 million increase in commercial and industrial loans, and a $21.0 million increase in residential loans, offset by a $9.2 million decrease in the commercial real estate portfolio, and a $0.8 million decrease in multifamily loans. During the quarter we had $37.4 million of payoffs and net upgrades of criticized or classified loans, including $20.9 million of commercial real estate loan upgrades, $4.7 million in multifamily loan upgrades, and a full payoff of an $8.0 million multifamily loan, as we continue to focus on the improving the credit quality of the commercial portfolio. Deposits at September 30, 2023 were $7.0 billion, an increase of $96.2 million, or 1.4%, during the quarter. Deposits excluding Brokered CDs increased by $172.8 million to $6.6 billion, or a 2.7% increase. Deposits held by politically active customers, such as campaigns, PACs, advocacy-based organizations, and state and national party committees were $951.2 million, an increase of $115.4 million during the quarter. Non-interest-bearing deposits represented 42% of average total deposits and 40% of ending total deposits for the quarter, contributing to an average cost of total deposits of 133 basis points. Nonperforming assets totaled $36.5 million, or 0.46% of period-end total assets, an increase of $1.2 million, compared with $35.3 million, or 0.45% on a linked quarter basis. The increase in non-performing assets was primarily driven by a $2.4 million construction loan and $0.5 million in residential loans placed on nonaccrual status, offset by a $1.2 million partial charge-off on a multifamily loan moved to held for sale and subsequently sold in October, and the sale of $0.6 million of nonaccrual consumer loans held-for-sale. During the quarter, the allowance for credit losses on loans increased $0.4 million to $67.8 million. The ratio of allowance to total loans was 1.55%, a decrease of 4 basis points from 1.59% in the second quarter of 2023. Capital Quarterly Summary As of September 30, 2023, our Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 12.63%, Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 15.28%, and Tier-1 Leverage Capital Ratio was 7.89%, compared to 12.51%, 15.26%, and 7.78%, respectively, as of June 30, 2023. Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2023 was $546.3 million, an increase of $17.7 million during the quarter. The increase in stockholders’ equity was primarily driven by $22.3 million of net income for the quarter offset by $3.1 million in dividends paid at $0.10 per outstanding share, $2.6 million of common stock repurchases, and a $0.1 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to the tax effected mark-to-market on our available for sale securities portfolio. Our tangible book value per share was $17.43 as of September 30, 2023 compared to $16.78 as of June 30, 2023. Tangible common equity improved to 6.72% of tangible assets, compared to 6.59% as of June 30, 2023. 3

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This release (and the accompanying financial information and tables) refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures including, without limitation, “Core operating revenue,” “Core non-interest expense,” “Core non-interest income,” “Core net income,” “Tangible common equity,” “Average tangible common equity,” “Core return on average assets,” “Core return on average tangible common equity,” and “Core efficiency ratio.” Our management utilizes this information to compare our operating performance for September 30, 2023 versus certain periods in 2023 and 2022 and to prepare internal projections. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of our operating performance. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and other discrete items unrelated to our core business, which are excluded, vary extensively from company to company, we believe that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare our results to those of other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information, however, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. We strongly encourage readers to review the GAAP financial measures included in this release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Reconciliations of non- GAAP financial disclosures to comparable GAAP measures found in this release are set forth in the final pages of this release and also may be viewed on our website, amalgamatedbank.com. 4

3 Safe Harbor Statements cont. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This presentation refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures including, without limitation, “Core operating revenue,” “Core non-interest expense,” “Core non-interest income,” “Core net income,” “Tangible common equity,” “Average tangible common equity,” “Core return on average assets,” “Core return on average tangible common equity,” and “Core efficiency ratio.” Our management utilizes this information to compare our operating performance for September 30, 2023 versus certain periods in 2023 and 2022 and to prepare internal projections. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of our operating performance. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and other discrete items unrelated to our core business, which are excluded, vary extensively from company to company, we believe that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare our results to those of other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information, however, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. We strongly encourage readers to review the GAAP financial measures included in this release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial disclosures to comparable GAAP measures found in this release are set forth in the final pages of this presentation and also may be viewed on our website, amalgamatedbank.com. You should assume that all numbers presented are unaudited unless otherwise noted.
