BRYN MAWR, Pa., July 18, 2019 – Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: Bryn Mawr TrustC) (the “Corporation”), parent of The Bryn Mawr Trust Company (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $15.8 million, or $0.78 diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to net income of $10.7 million, or $0.53 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and $14.7 million, or $0.72 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
On a non-GAAP basis, core net income, which excludes income tax charges incurred in connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform”), due diligence and merger-related expenses, one-time costs associated with our voluntary Years of Service Incentive Program (the “Incentive Program”), and other non-core income and expense items, as detailed in the appendix to this earnings release, was $15.8 million, or $0.78 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $14.2 million, or $0.70 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and $17.0 million, or $0.83 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Management believes the core net income measure is important in evaluating the Corporation’s performance on a more comparable basis between periods. A reconciliation of this and other non-GAAP to GAAP performance measures is included in the appendix to this earnings release.

Mr. Leto then continued, “I am also pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has approved a dividend increase of 4%, making this the ninth consecutive year the Corporation has raised its dividend.”
The Board of Directors of the Corporation declared a quarterly dividend of $0.26 per share, payable September 1, 2019 to shareholders of record as of August 1, 2019.
