NEWS RELEASE

EAST WEST BANCORP REPORTS EARNINGS FOR SECOND QUARTER OF 2025, WITH RECORD QUARTERLY REVENUE AND NET INTEREST INCOME

Pasadena, California – July 22, 2025 – East West Bancorp, Inc. (“East West” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: EWBC), parent company of East West Bank, reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter 2025 net income was $310 million or $2.24 per diluted share. Total loans and deposits both reached new records as of June 30, 2025, at $55.0 billion and $65.0 billion respectively. Return on average common equity was 15.4% and the total stockholders’ equity to assets ratio was 10.5% for the second quarter. Book value per share and tangible book value per share1 both grew $1.97 quarter-over-quarter.

“East West reported another strong quarter of balanced growth, with average loans and deposits growing by approximately $1.0 billion each,” said Dominic Ng, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our balance sheet growth drove a new record level of net interest income and we delivered another solid quarter of fee revenue, fueling a 16.7% adjusted return on average tangible common equity1,” continued Ng.

“Credit trends were resilient, with criticized loans and nonperforming assets both declining quarter-over-quarter. Our capital levels increased during the quarter, with East West’s tangible common equity ratio growing to 10%. This position of strength will allow us to support our customers with confidence and to capitalize on market opportunities. I am also proud to report that East West was again ranked as the best performing bank above $50 billion in assets by Bank Director, marking our third consecutive year and fourth title in the past five years,” Ng concluded.

•Deposits – Total deposits hit a record $65.0 billion as of June 30, 2025, an increase of nearly $2.0 billion from $63.1 billion as of March 31, 2025, primarily reflecting growth in time, interest-bearing checking, money market, and noninterest-bearing demand deposits.

CAPITAL STRENGTH

The following table presents capital metrics as of June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024.



EWBC Capital
($ in millions)	June 30, 2025 (a)(b)	March 31, 2025 (b)	June 30, 2024 (b)

Risk-Weighted Assets (“RWA”) (c)	$56,280	$55,366	$53,967
Risk-based capital ratios:
Total capital ratio	15.82%	15.63%	15.05%
CET1 capital ratio	14.51%	14.32%	13.74%
Tier 1 capital ratio	14.51%	14.32%	13.74%

Leverage ratio	10.60%	10.46%	10.36%
Total stockholders’ equity to assets ratio	10.49%	10.41%	9.96%
Tangible common equity ratio (d)	9.95%	9.85%	9.37%

(a)The Company’s June 30, 2025 regulatory capital ratios and RWA are preliminary.

(b)The Company applied the 2020 Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) transition provision in the March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 regulatory capital ratio calculations. The CECL transition provision permitted certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out period in which the aggregate benefit was reduced by 25% in 2022, 50% in 2023 and 75% in 2024. The CECL transition is no longer in effect as of March 31, 2025.

(c)Under regulatory guidelines, on-balance sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet items are assigned to one of several broad risk categories based on the nature of the obligor, or, if relevant, the guarantor or the nature of any collateral. The aggregate dollar value in each risk category is then multiplied by the risk weight associated with that category. The resulting weighted values from each of the risk categories are aggregated for determining total RWA.

(d)Tangible common equity ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure. See reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures in Table 14.

3 Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. See reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures in Table 14.

OPERATING RESULTS

Second Quarter Earnings – Second quarter 2025 revenue was a record $703 million, up $11 million, or 2% quarter-over-quarter, driven primarily by record quarterly net interest income. Pre-tax, pre-provision income4 totaled $449 million in the second quarter, up $8 million or 2% quarter-over-quarter. Second quarter 2025 net income was $310 million or $2.24 per diluted share.

Second Quarter 2025 Compared to First Quarter 2025

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income totaled a record $617 million in the second quarter, an increase of $17 million, or 3%, from $600 million in the first quarter of 2025. Net interest margin was 3.35%, unchanged from the prior quarter.

•The average loan yield was 6.40%, up 1 basis point from the prior quarter. The average interest-earning asset yield was 5.75%, down 1 basis point from the prior quarter.

•The average cost of funds was 2.63%, down 1 basis point from the prior quarter. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits was 3.31%, a 3 basis point decrease from the prior quarter.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $86 million in the second quarter, while fee income5 totaled $81 million.

•Other income increased $3 million quarter-over-quarter, primarily due to greater returns from bank-owned life insurance holdings.

•Commercial and consumer deposit-related fees remained stable quarter-over-quarter.

•Lending and loan servicing fees were down $1 million in the second quarter, primarily reflecting lower syndication activity.

•Foreign exchange income decreased $2 million in the second quarter, primarily reflecting an unfavorable change in mark-to-market adjustments on foreign exchange positions.

•Customer derivative income and wealth management income decreased a combined $5 million in total quarter-over-quarter, primarily reflecting lower customer activity from record levels set in the prior quarter.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense was $256 million in the second quarter, which included $26 million of amortization for tax credit and Community Reinvestment Act investments. Total operating noninterest expense was $230 million, a decrease of $7 million quarter-over-quarter.

•Compensation and employee benefits were $145 million, a decrease of approximately $2 million, primarily due to higher seasonal costs in the first quarter.

•Occupancy and equipment expense was $16 million, an increase of $1 million.

•Deposit insurance premiums and regulatory assessments were $9 million, a $1 million decrease reflecting a $1 million reversal of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) Special Assessment-related expense in the current quarter.

•Other operating expense was $37 million, a decrease of $5 million, primarily reflecting $4 million of net other real estate owned write-downs in the prior quarter.

•The efficiency ratio was 36.4% in the second quarter, unchanged from the prior quarter.

TAX RELATED ITEMS

Second quarter 2025 income tax expense was $92 million and the effective tax rate was 22.9%. On June 30, 2025 California adopted the single sales factor apportionment method (“CA SSF”). The one-time impact of this adoption was $6 million of incremental tax expense. Excluding this impact, second quarter 2025 adjusted income tax expense6 was $86 million, and the adjusted effective tax rate6 was 21.3%, compared with income tax expense of $101 million and 25.8% in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting the timing of certain renewable energy tax credit investments that closed in the second quarter.




4 Pre-tax, pre-provision income is a non-GAAP financial measure. See reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in Table 13.
5 Fee income includes commercial and consumer deposit-related fees, lending and loan servicing fees, foreign exchange income, wealth management fees, and customer derivative income. Refer to Table 3 for additional fee and noninterest income information.
6 Adjusted income tax expense and adjusted effective tax rate are non-GAAP financial measures. See reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in Table 12.

ASSET QUALITY

As of June 30, 2025, the credit quality of our loan portfolio remained resilient.

•The criticized loans ratio decreased 14 basis points quarter-over-quarter to 2.15% of loans held-for-investment (“HFI”) as of June 30, 2025, compared with 2.29% as of March 31, 2025. Criticized loans decreased $62 million quarter-over-quarter to $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2025. The quarter-over-quarter change primarily reflects decreases related to C&I, multifamily, and residential mortgage loans.

•Second quarter 2025 net charge-offs were $15 million, or annualized 0.11% of average loans HFI, compared with $15 million, or annualized 0.12% of average loans HFI, for the first quarter of 2025.

•The allowance for loan losses increased to $760 million, or 1.38% of loans HFI, as of June 30, 2025, compared with $735 million, or 1.35% of loans HFI, as of March 31, 2025, primarily reflecting changes in our economic outlook.

Certain matters set forth herein (including any exhibits hereto) contain “forward-looking statements” that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor for such statements provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. East West Bancorp, Inc. (referred to herein on an unconsolidated basis as “East West” and on a consolidated basis as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” or “EWBC”) may make forward-looking statements in other documents that it files with, or furnishes to, the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and management may make forward-looking statements to analysts, investors, media members and others. Forward-looking statements are those that do not relate to historical facts and that are based on current assumptions, beliefs, estimates, expectations and projections, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond the Company’s control. Forward-looking statements may relate to various matters, including the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance, business or industry, and usually can be identified by the use of forward-looking words, such as “anticipates,” “assumes,” “believes,” “can,” “continues,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “intends,” “likely,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “remains,” “should,” “target,” “trend,” “will,” “would,” or similar expressions or variations thereof, and the negative thereof, but these terms are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as they are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

Factors that might cause future results to differ materially from historical performance and any forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: changes in local, regional and global business, economic and political conditions and natural or geopolitical events; the soundness of other financial institutions and the impacts related to or resulting from bank failures and other industry volatility, including potential increased regulatory requirements, FDIC insurance premiums and assessments, and deposit withdrawals; changes in laws or the regulatory environment, including trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws and current or potential disputes between the U.S. and the People’s Republic of China, Singapore, and other countries; changes in the commercial and consumer real estate markets; changes in consumer or commercial spending, savings and borrowing habits, and patterns and behaviors; the Company’s ability to compete effectively against financial institutions and other entities, including as a result of emerging technologies; the success and timing of the Company’s business strategies; the Company’s ability to retain key officers and employees; changes in market interest rates, competition, regulatory requirements and product mix; changes in the Company’s costs of operation, compliance and expansion; disruption, failure in, or breach of, the Company’s operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of third party vendors with which the Company does business, including as a result of cyber-attacks, and the disclosure or misuse of confidential information; the adequacy of the Company’s risk management framework; future credit quality and performance, including expectations regarding future credit losses and allowance levels; adverse changes to the Company’s credit ratings; legal proceedings, regulatory investigations and their resolution; the Company’s capital requirements and its ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms; the impact on the Company’s liquidity due to changes in the Company’s ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries; and any strategic acquisitions or divestitures and the introduction of new or expanded products and services or other events that may directly or indirectly result in a negative impact on the financial performance of the Company and its customers.

For a more detailed discussion of some of the factors that might cause such differences, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025 under the heading Item 1A. Risk Factors. You should treat forward-looking statements as speaking only as of the date they are made and based only on information then actually known to the Company. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements except as required by law.

Table 12
On June 30, 2025, the California single sales factor apportionment method (“CA SSF”) was approved for financial institutions in the 2025 tax year, which resulted in $6 million of additional income tax expense recorded in the second quarter of 2025. The table below provides the computation of the Company’s effective tax rate and adjusted effective tax rate excluding the impact of the CA SSF. Management believes that presenting the adjusted effective tax rate computation allows comparability to prior periods.

Adjusted net income represents net income adjusted for the tax-effected FDIC special assessment and DC Solar adjustments and the impact of the CA SSF. Management believes that presenting the computations of the adjusted net income, adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on average equity that exclude the aforementioned tax-effected adjustments and the impact of the CA SSF provide clarity to financial statement users regarding the ongoing performance of the Company and allow comparability to prior periods. •During the first and second quarters of 2024, the Company recorded $10 million, and $2 million, respectively, of pre-tax FDIC special assessment charges. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded an $833 thousand FDIC special assessment charge that was subsequently reversed during the second quarter of 2025. Pre-tax FDIC special assessment reversals/charges are included in Deposit insurance premiums and regulatory assessments on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. •During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded $3 million in pre-tax DC Solar recoveries (included in Amortization of Tax Credit and CRA Investments on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income) related to the Company’s investment in DC Solar. •During the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded $6 million of additional income tax expense due to the impact of the CA SSF.

Forward-Looking Statements and Additional Information In this presentation, “we”, “our”, “us”, “East West” and the “Company” refer to East West Bancorp, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise. Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor for such statements provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on the current assumptions, beliefs, estimates, and projections, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. There are various important factors that could cause the Company’s future results to differ materially from historical performance and any forward-looking statements, including the factors described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind these risks and uncertainties, as well as any cautionary statements the Company may make. These statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based only on information then actually known to the Company. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, except as required by law. Basis of Presentation The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, income and expenses during the reporting periods, and the related disclosures. Although our estimates consider current conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, it is reasonably possible that actual results could be materially different from those estimates. Hence, the current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year as a whole. Certain prior period information have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Industry Information This presentation includes statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from government reports and other third-party sources. Although we believe that this information is accurate and reliable, we have not independently verified such information. Forward-looking information that we have obtained from these sources is subject to the same uncertainties and qualifications as other forward-looking statements contained herein. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Certain financial information in this presentation has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP and is presented on a non-GAAP basis.

AND SUBSIDIARIES GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION ($ in thousands) (unaudited) Adjusted net income represents net income adjusted for the tax-effected FDIC special assessment and DC Solar adjustments and the impact of the CA SSF. Management believes that presenting the computations of the adjusted net income, adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on average equity that exclude the aforementioned tax-effected adjustments and the impact of the CA SSF provide clarity to financial statement users regarding the ongoing performance of the Company and allow comparability to prior periods. • During the first and second quarters of 2024, the Company recorded $10 million, and $2 million, respectively, of pre-tax FDIC special assessment charges.
