Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. is a Massachusetts-based financial holding company that operates through its subsidiary, Enterprise Bank, offering a range of banking services including loans, deposits, cash management, and wealth management. The company primarily serves communities in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
In its latest earnings report, Enterprise Bancorp announced a net income of $10.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting an increase from previous quarters. The company also highlighted the imminent merger with Independent Bank Corp., expected to conclude in the latter half of 2025, which has been positively received by shareholders.
The financial performance for the quarter was robust, with notable loan growth of 3.2% and a net interest margin expansion to 3.29%. Total loans reached $3.98 billion, while wealth assets under management grew by 1.4% to $1.54 billion. The company also reported an increase in net interest income driven by higher loan yields and a reduction in provision for credit losses compared to the previous year.
Despite the increase in net income, non-interest expenses rose, largely due to merger-related costs and higher salaries. The company’s balance sheet reflected a solid position with a total asset increase to $4.83 billion.
Looking ahead, Enterprise Bancorp’s management remains optimistic about the upcoming merger and its potential to enhance shareholder value, while continuing to focus on sustaining its growth trajectory and financial stability.
