Georgetown Bancorp, Inc. Reports 95% Increase in Earnings per Share for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and Announces Quarterly Cash Dividend

GEORGETOWN, MASSACHUSETTS, July 29, 2014 —

Georgetown Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: GTWN) (the “Company”), holding company for Georgetown Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 of $374,000, or $.21 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $150,000, or $.08 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $649,000, or $0.37 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $359,000, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Book value per share increased $0.45 to $16.25 at June 30, 2014 from $15.80 at December 31, 2013 and was positively impacted by a net after-tax increase in the market value of our available for sale investment securities of $422,000, or $0.23 per share.

Robert E. Balletto, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am pleased to report a 95% increase in earnings per share on a year over year basis, primarily driven by an expansion of our net interest and dividend income. Additionally, our asset quality continues to be strong, as non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets was 0.13% at June 30, 2014.  Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 declined 51% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013, caused by a decline in mortgage banking income, which was negatively affected by higher mortgage rates. We remain focused on our strategic plan, which we believe will enhance long-term stockholder value.”

The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.0425 per share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on or about August 25, 2014, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 11, 2014.
