ANNUAL REPORT 2023

THE VALUE OF A 

RELATIONSHIP-CENTRIC BANK

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
At Enterprise Bank, the primary 

barometer by which we measure our 

success has always been the strength of our 

relationships. United in our commitment to putting 

people first, Enterprise Bankers serve from a place of 

caring, compassion, and deep purpose, working tirelessly to 

serve the needs of our customers, communities, and stakeholders 

as we strive to live up to the trust they place in us.

In the following pages, our customers share—in their own words—how  

Enterprise Bankers have supported them, their businesses, and their  

communities as trusted advisors, volunteers, and friends. Their stories  

are a testament to the bonds we’ve fostered and to the value of our  

people-first philosophy. This commitment to building meaningful  

relationships with all those we serve has been fundamental to who we  

are as a bank since first opening our doors 35 years ago and has laid  

the foundation for ongoing mutual growth and success.

The words on the cover of this report;  
Trust, Caring, Growth, Purpose, Advocacy,  
Commitment and Community represent just  
a few of the many aspects of the strong and 
long-lasting relationships we create with  
our customers and our communities.

DEAR FRIENDS,

On January 3rd, Enterprise Bank celebrated our 35th anniversary, marking 35 years of  

creating positive impacts in the lives of the individuals, businesses, and communities we  

so passionately serve. This is entirely due to our collective Enterprise team. 

The Enterprise Differentiation
and Value Proposition
Since Enterprise Bank’s founding, our strategy and 
vision have been to provide to our customers the  
best service, responsiveness, long-term trusting  
relationships, and local market knowledge, while at 
the same time delivering the technology, products, 
and services found at many of the top leading  
banks in the nation, including progressive digital 
banking, wealth management, cash management, 
residential lending, and commercial lending services. 
This combination of progressive offerings and  
prioritizing the human connection sets us apart  
from other banks. 

Trusting Relationships 
with Our Customers 
Enterprise Bank is built upon a people-first and  
customer-centric culture, and our success has always 
been measured, first and foremost, by the strength 
of our relationships. As the customer testimonials in 
the following pages of this report attest, our mission 
as Enterprise Bankers involves more than simply 
providing the products and services our customers 
need; we serve as trusted and consultative advisors, 
building lasting relationships through our genuine 
desire to support our customers.

Our People, Purpose, and Culture
For 35 years, we have put people at the heart of 
everything we do, acting out of a sincere desire to 
serve the customers, non-profits, communities, team 
members, and other stakeholders that put their trust 
in us. It’s a mindset and purpose we all share as 
Enterprise Bankers, and our level of commitment  
to this distinguishes us from other banks.

At Enterprise Bank, our team members are our 
greatest assets and the driving force behind our  
success. We strive to attract talented individuals 
who operate from a sense of purpose, and we  
invest in their professional and personal growth  
and development. 

Our Bank is committed to encouraging and fostering 
a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging 
(DEIB) where everyone feels valued, respected, 
cared for and appreciated. Each year, we publish  
our DEIB Annual Report on our website (www.
enterprisebanking.com/inclusion), highlighting our 
efforts and accomplishments.

In 2023, Enterprise Bank was recognized for the 
twelfth consecutive year by The Boston Globe as one 
of The Top Places to Work in Massachusetts. We 
were ranked #9 among 55 large-sized companies in 
this category. Energage, the company that conducts 
employee surveys and compiles statewide rankings of 
“The Top Places to Work,” also recognized Enterprise 
Bank with industry cultural excellence awards in 

ENTERPRISE BANKERS FROM THE LOWELL 
AND CHELMSFORD TEAMS ATTENDING A 
COMPANY TEAM-BUILDING EVENT. 

10 categories: Leadership, Innovation, Compensation 
and Benefits, Work-Life Flexibility, Purpose and Values, 
Employee Well-Being, Employee Appreciation,  
Professional Development, and Financial Services.

Our Bank’s culture is a reflection of the leadership and 
oversight of our board of directors. Strong leadership 
and sound corporate governance are essential to the 
long-term success of any organization. Our board is 
comprised of accomplished leaders who bring unique 
perspectives, skills, and experiences instrumental to 
driving our continued success and making us a stronger 
financial institution and community leader. Fiercely 
dedicated and committed to the Bank’s core values, 
vision, and principles, our board operates from a true 
purpose-driven spirit.

1

Community
Enterprise Bank is a true community bank. We  
dedicate ourselves to strengthening the economic 
fabric of the communities in which we serve. As 
both a core value of our organization and an intrinsic 
part of our identity, community is something we 
consistently strive to foster and support.

Remaining committed to our purpose of making a 
positive difference in the lives of the individuals, 
businesses, and communities we so passionately 
serve, and playing an active role in making every 
community in which we operate a better place 
to live and work, we continually invest our time, 
resources, and expertise. Last year, Enterprise Bank 
extended support to more than 425 organizations 
through donations, sponsorships, and volunteer 
efforts. We also supported our non-profit organiza-
tions through our long running seminar series— 
the Non-Profit Collaborative and our Business  
Leadership Forum.

In 2023, the Bank was recognized once again by  
the Boston Business Journal as a top philanthropic 
company in Massachusetts, ranking #2 among  
Massachusetts companies for the highest average 
hours per team member (36.24 hours per team 
member) in community service for the second  
consecutive year. This special recognition is a  
validation of all the wonderful work our team members 
do in service of our communities. Enterprise was 
also ranked #52 for charitable giving among the 
largest corporate donors in Massachusetts.

Early last year, we published our second annual  
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report, 
highlighting our efforts as a responsible corporate 
partner to the communities and customers we serve, 
and to all stakeholders who put their trust in us.  
The ESG Report can be found on our website  
(www.enterprisebanking.com/ESG); we will be 
posting our 2023 report in the coming weeks.

Our Growth 
We have now recorded 137 consecutive profitable 
quarters and have increased our annual dividend for 
32 consecutive years; our dividend has increased 
every year since we began paying a dividend. 

Financial results for 2023 include:

• Net income was $38.1 million; 

•  Total loans grew by 12% and amounted to  

$3.57 billion at year end;

•  Total customer deposits decreased by 1%  

and ended 2023 at $3.98 billion; 

•  Total assets ended 2023 at $4.47 billion,  

an increase of 1%;

•  Wealth assets under management and  

administration ended 2023 at $1.32 billion,  
an increase of 21%;

•  Loan quality continued to be strong at  

December 31, 2023 with non-performing  
loans at 0.32% of total loans and net  
charge-offs for the year at only $105,000;  
Additionally, the allowance for credit losses  
was 1.65% of total loans.

Over the past five years we have experienced 
the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, an extremely 
rapid decline in interest rates, more recently an 
extremely rapid increase in interest rates, an 
inverted yield curve, and many other headwinds 
and challenges. We have navigated through  
numerous economic cycles over our 35 years. 
Even through the recent “headwinds”, our  
financial results have been very strong, with  
our average annual compounded growth rates 
over the last five years ending December 31, 2023, 
being as follows:

•  Net income – 6%
•  Annual dividend – 10% 
•  Total loans – 8% 
•  Total customer deposits – 10%
•  Total assets – 9%

ENTERPRISE BANK’S WESTFORD BRANCH 
UNDERWENT EXTENSIVE RENOVATIONS 
IN 2023 TO ENHANCE THE EXPERIENCE 
FOR OUR CUSTOMERS SEEKING BANKING 
AND LENDING SERVICES.

Technology
Since our founding, we have continually invested  
in technology. We empower our customers to do 
business with us in a way that is most convenient for  
them. Accordingly, over the last few years, Enterprise 
Bank has been focusing on a digital evolution initiative, 
increasing the convenience with which customers 
and prospects communicate and do business with 
us and enhancing our operating efficiency. Last year, 
we further adopted several technology services, 
including DocuSign, which streamlines the way 
that customers receive, sign, and return paperwork, 
and Coconut, an appointment-booking tool which 
enables customers to view team members’ calendar 
availability in real-time and schedule appointments 
at their convenience. We also launched Payee Match, 
a service which adds an extra level of protection 
against unauthorized disbursements and fraudulent 
checks for our corporate Check Positive Pay clients, 
and ZRent, a rent collection service. Furthermore, 
this year, we augmented our Call Center with the 
integration of SMS (text) chat capabilities. Our Call 
Center Specialists can now transition customers 
seamlessly between various digital channels— 

voice, email, web chat, and SMS chat—and guide 
customers towards the channels best suited to  
resolving their issues. At 20 of our 28 ATMs, we also 
added tap-reader functionality, enabling customers  
to tap their debit cards for access instead of having 
to insert their chip card.

Aside from customer-facing technology improve-
ments, there were also various enhancements 
implemented behind the scenes. Our transition 
to a cloud-based infrastructure, the digitization of 
paper-intensive processes, and the automation of 
time-consuming manual processes, all added to  
the Bank’s operational efficiency.

These strategic investments in technology,  
paired with our people-first philosophy, have been 
enormously valuable, particularly during and after  
the pandemic which so drastically transformed  
customer expectations and how businesses  
operate. As customer expectations evolve,  
so does our Bank, leveraging technology to  
strengthen the human connection.

Looking Ahead 
We would again like to thank our board of directors 
for their counsel and advice, and for setting the 
example of excellence, operating from a sense of 
purpose, and laying an important foundation for 
building relationships. In closing, we express our 
deepest appreciation and gratitude to each of you— 
our shareholders, customers, community members, 
and team members—for the trust and confidence 
you place in us and for your support. The growth of 
Enterprise Bank stems from the trusting relationships 
we have all built with each other. 

With deep gratitude,

Richard W. Main

HYDRA TECH, INC.

Years ago, I switched to Enterprise and I’ve never looked 

back—the experience has been phenomenal! Enterprise  

Bankers are quick, responsive, and accommodating.  

Whenever I need them, they’re there for me; that was never 

clearer than during the pandemic. While other businesses 

in the area were struggling to reach their bankers and get 

the help they needed, Enterprise was always just a quick 

phone call away. That kind of DEPENDABILITY and  

service, especially in times of crisis like the pandemic, is 

very rare and truly showcases Enterprise’s commitment  

to its customers.”

– DON SMITH, JR.

GREATER LOWELL YMCA

‘‘

The team at Enterprise Bank is phenomenal—it’s what sets them apart 

from any other bank out there. They’re patient, knowledgeable, and 

hardworking, but most of all, they’re GENUINE, down-to-earth people. It’s 

never a stuffy, generic exchange when I work with them; from the wealth 

management team, to the branch employees, to the executive leadership 

team, I have good relationships with team members all throughout the 

bank. They’re people I trust and who I sincerely enjoy working with.

– KEVIN MORRISSEY

Guided by our core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility, the 
YMCA is dedicated to giving people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life the 
opportunity to reach their full potential with dignity. We are a leading nonprofit 
committed to strengthening community by empowering young people, improving 
the health and well-being of people of all ages, and inspiring  
action in and across communities. The Greater Lowell 
YMCA serves more than 5,000 members and owns two 
properties: the Greater Lowell YMCA and Camp Massapoag. 
We serve more than 15,000 community members a year 
through programs and ancillary programs and we provide 
annual financial assistance to those in need.

Enterprise Bank has been so good to the CMAA. We can always count on Enterprise bankers 

to be there when we need them and to guide us through any issue with patience and  

PROFESSIONALISM. What has impressed me most, however, is how active they are outside 

the walls of their offices and how much they contribute to the community beyond the scope of 

their roles as bankers. Over the years, Enterprise Bankers have given seminars to our CMAA 

team, shared their financial expertise with our leadership and board, and supported community 

events hosted by the CMAA and other nonprofits in the area. It feels like so much more than a 

banking relationship to work with people who share our commitment to the community.

In the early 1980s, thousands of Cambodians 
fled their homeland to escape a communist 
regime and genocide, with many resettling in 
the city of Lowell and other cities throughout 
the U.S. In 1984, the Cambodian Mutual  
Assistance Association (CMAA) was founded  
to provide support to these Cambodian 
communities, offering services ranging from 
language translation, to assisting with food and 
shelter resources, to organizing community 
events that bring people together. Today, 
CMAA is proud to be one of the leading  
nonprofits serving the Cambodian-American 
community, providing a wide range of programs 
and services designed to help people over-
come the challenges they face, craft a brighter 
tomorrow, and foster lasting positive change 
within the communities we serve.

APPLEWILD

I’m an educator, not a banking and finance 

expert, so when Applewild’s enrollment grew 

to the point where we needed to invest in 

dorm renovations and development, I called 

my Enterprise bankers. They were wonderful 

in helping me understand what my options 

were and explaining the application process. 

They made the process easy to understand 

and were there to guide me every step of the 

way, all the while demonstrating genuine  

respect and appreciation for what we’re trying 

to do for our students and our community.  

It means a lot to work with people who  

sincerely CARE about our mission and  

truly want to see us succeed.”

At Applewild, we believe that the ages of three to fifteen are the 
most important in a child’s education—the foundation upon which 
all future success is built. We empower students to discover their 
passion for learning and pursue excellence in academics, arts, and 
athletics in our supportive environment, employing a metacognitive 
approach where we help each child not only to develop skills, but also 
to plan, monitor, and reflect on their efforts. The magic at Applewild 
derives from a coherent, intentional plan in which our Core Values are 
interwoven with our Core Competencies. These strengthen and guide 
our developmental approach and unite us as a community of learners 
who are actively involved in, and responsible for, healthy growth. 
Students graduate from Applewild as accomplished young people 
who know how they learn, who are poised to accept the challenges 
of rigorous academic work, and who are confident that they can 
make a difference in the world.

Enterprise is more than just a bank; they’re part of the fabric 

of our community. When I walk into a branch, the team 

knows who I am and greets me by name, not just because 

I’m a customer, but because they’re actively engaged in our 

community. I see Enterprise Bankers at local events, serving 

on nonprofit boards, and giving back wherever there’s a 

need. There’s just something so special about banking with 

people who I know and trust, and who show up in the  

COMMUNITY we share in so many different ways.”

Enterprise Bank is a pleasure to work with; I feel like my business truly 

matters to them. Unlike other banks, which keep me waiting, bounce me 

from one representative to the next, and offer me generic, cookie-cutter 

solutions, working with Enterprise feels like I have my own personal  

banker every time I interact with them. They take the time to talk through 

my circumstances and UNDERSTAND my needs so that they can tailor 

their recommendations to best address them. Whatever questions I have,  

whatever concerns I raise, Enterprise Bankers are always right there with me.

When I first approached Enterprise Bank, my business was young and I was looking for funding to 

grow. Other banks I reached out to quickly turned me away; some wouldn’t even sit down with me. 

Then I called Mark. He worked with me to set smaller steps and goals that would get me to where 

I needed to be so that the bank could take me on. As a startup, I really counted on his experience 

and EXPERTISE. Thanks to his open mind, guidance, and genuine interest in helping me succeed, 

I was eventually able to secure the loan through Enterprise which enabled me to take my business 

to the next level.

The Dow Company has been a family-owned and  
-operated business since its founding in 1904 by  
Robert Dow. Now under our 5th generation of Dow 
leadership, we are a full-service site and highway  
contractor offering a wide variety of services, including 
land clearing, erosion control, fencing, cuts, fills, blasting, 
utility installations, deep foundation excavation and 
support systems, grading, paving, curb and sidewalk 
placement, and landscaping.

THE DOW 
COMPANY, INC.

For years, I worked with big banks. When I 

needed a loan for new equipment, they made 

me jump through endless hoops—it was 

torture. I never felt like I had any rapport with 

them; it was so impersonal. When I turned to 

Enterprise Bank, the experience was night 

and day. Dwight took the time to explain my 

options, guide me through the loan process, 

and answer all my questions. With Enterprise, 

I always get the answers and SERVICE I’m 

looking for, quickly and professionally.  

Enterprise treats me like a person, not just 

another account on their books, and their  

longtime independence and stability reassures 

me that they’re here to stay.
