Annual Report
A Year of Growth and Transformation

SINCE OUR EARLIEST DAYS, 
ENTERPRISE BANK HAS BEEN 
AN AVID PATRON AND 
SUPPORTER OF THE ARTS. 
We have always believed that supporting 
the local creative economy is inextricably 
linked to our mission of helping to create 
vibrant, prosperous communities and 
making them better places to live and work. 
Through volunteerism, sponsorships, and 
charitable donations, we have consistently 
invested in and fostered local talent, 
programs, and organizations. In our offices 
and branches, we adorn the walls with pieces 
commissioned through our community art 
program—an initiative that dates back to our 
founding through which we’ve purchased 
over 1,000 original piece from well over 
300 local artists—adding vibrancy to our 
spaces and spotlighting artists who call 
our communities home.
About the Cover 
Featured on the cover of this report is a paint-stroke 
design, a nod to our Bank’s longstanding commitment 
to, and appreciation for, the arts. The dual parallel lines 
represent our Enterprise and the communities we serve, 
side by side in lock-step unity, a shared history between 
us; the overlap and blending of the strokes symbolizing 
the connections between us and the relationships 
we’ve fostered.

Buoys, Dr. Andrew Kusmin
Another defining factor of who we are and how far 
we’ve come is our Bank leadership; a product of 
effective succession planning that has always been 
an integral part of our Bank’s business strategy. 
Fostering talent from within and cultivating leaders 
who possess not just the required industry knowledge, 
but an understanding of what it means to be an 
Enterprise Banker as well—knowing our communities, 
understanding our customers, and sharing our 
dedication to building relationships—has been crucial 
to maintaining operational, brand, and cultural 
stability through times of transition. This past year, 
we saw our succession plan bear fruit time and 
again as various veteran members of our team took 
on new responsibilities as they advanced into more 
senior roles. Their robust leadership training and 
long tenures as Enterprise Bankers ensured seamless 
business continuity. 
1
It was a year of significant change at Enterprise 
Bank. A year marked by strong financial performance, 
succession planning in action, and defining decisions 
about our path forward. 
On January 3, 2024, our Bank celebrated its 35th 
anniversary. Born of an entrepreneurial spirit, we’ve 
come a long way since opening our doors at 222 
Merrimack Street in 1989. Over those 35 years, 
we opened 27 branches, made billions of dollars 
in loans to local businesses and individuals, hired, 
nurtured, and trained thousands of team members, 
supported hundreds of charitable and nonprofit 
organizations, volunteered hundreds of thousands 
of hours in our communities, and recorded 141 
consecutive profitable quarters.
Throughout our history, we’ve also continually 
evolved and adapted to meet the ever-changing needs 
and expectations of our customers, leveraging new 
technologies, industry best practices, and ongoing 
training for our team members. Each step in our 
journey of evolution has sought to empower our 
team members to better serve our customers and 
communities, and to enhance the overall customer 
experience. Throughout our growth and expansion, 
and throughout every economic cycle, we have 
remained true to our founding purpose: to help 
create successful businesses, jobs, opportunities, 
wealth, and vibrant communities. 
2024 Financial Results
We have now recorded 141 consecutive profitable 
quarters and have increased our annual dividend 
for 33 consecutive years; our dividend has increased 
every year since we began paying a dividend.   
Financial results for 2024 include:
	
• Net income was $38.7 million;
	
• Total loans grew by 12% and amounted to 
$3.98 billion at year end;
	
• Total customer deposits grew by 5% and 
amounted to $4.19 billion at year end;
	
• Total assets ended 2024 at $4.83 billion, 
an increase of 8%;
	
• Wealth assets under management and 
administration ended 2024 at $1.54 billion, 
an increase of 16%;
	
• Loan quality continued to be strong at 
December 31, 2024 with non-performing 
loans at 0.67% of total loans and net 
charge-offs for the year at $206 thousand. 
Additionally, the allowance for credit losses 
was 1.59% of total loans.
Our People, Our Culture 
Enterprise Bank would not be the successful and 
well-respected institution it is today if not for our 
amazing team members. The exceptional service and 
care our customers enjoy, and the transformative 
community impact our Bank has achieved, are 
results of the hard work and dedication of our valued 
team members. Each member of our Enterprise 
family embodies the values we stand for, serving 
with integrity and a sincere commitment to their 
customers and communities. They are the heart and 
soul of who we are as a bank.
To Our Shareholders,

In March, Michael Gallagher, our Chief Risk Officer 
(CRO), retired after 21 years of service to Enterprise 
Bank. In alignment with our succession plan, Meaghan 
Lally-McGurl, an 18-year Enterprise team member 
who had been serving as our Chief Information 
Security Officer, was selected to succeed Mike as 
our CRO. 
Talent, however, cannot come solely from within. 
In order to foster an environment of diverse ideas, 
perspectives, and experiences, it is imperative that 
we balance internal development with fresh outside 
expertise. Therefore, last April, we welcomed David 
Lynch, formerly of Cambridge Trust, to lead Enterprise 
Wealth Management as Managing Director and 
Chief Investment Officer. Along with extensive 
industry experience gained at top financial and 
banking institutions, David has brought a wealth of 
new insights and knowledge to our Bank, challenging 
our existing processes and augmenting the value we 
can provide, enabling us to better serve our clients.
2
After a remarkable 36-year career at Enterprise 
Bank, including 17 as our Chief Executive Officer, 
Jack Clancy retired in June. A lifelong resident of 
the Greater Lowell area, Jack joined Enterprise Bank 
during its founding in 1988 as Chief Financial Officer 
and Treasurer. He came aboard as Enterprise Bank’s 
second employee and was instrumental in helping 
grow our Enterprise from a single location in 
downtown Lowell to 27 branches in Massachusetts 
and New Hampshire. Steve Larochelle, our Chief 
Banking Officer (CBO), 28-year Enterprise Banker, 
and a 40-year banking veteran, was chosen to 
succeed Jack as our CEO. Susan Covey, who 
served as our Branch Administration Director, 
was promoted to CBO. 
In October, Stephen Irish retired as Chief Operating 
Officer (COO). One of our earliest team members, 
his career spanned an era of rapid technological 
evolution, and he was instrumental in leading our 
Bank from its earliest days to becoming the institution 
it is today. Brian Collins, who joined us 25 years 
ago as a management trainee, and who had served 
as our Chief Digital and Operations Officer, was 
promoted to the COO role.

Our Communities 
As reflected in our purpose statement, Enterprise Bank 
is committed to making a positive difference in the 
lives of the individuals, businesses, and communities 
we so passionately serve. We endeavor to play an 
active role in making every community in which we 
operate a better place to live and work.
Being a true community bank means that the 
communities we operate in and serve are extensions 
of our Bank—their success is our success, and vice 
versa. Our team members live and immerse themselves 
within our communities, volunteering, serving on 
nonprofit boards, attending local events, and fostering 
meaningful relationships. ‘Community bank’ is more 
than just a label we define ourselves by; it’s a promise 
to every community that welcomes us—one that 
our bankers live, breathe, and strive towards every 
single day.
In 2024, our team members collectively volunteered 
more than 28,000 hours within our communities. In 
addition, 195 team members serve on 275 boards and 
committees with 94 team members serving on more 
than one board or committee. As a bank, we made 
more than $1.5 million in charitable contributions to 
local nonprofits and causes, supporting the important 
work they do in service of our shared communities. 
We were honored to be recognized once again by 
the Boston Business Journal as a top contributor both 
philanthropically and in volunteerism, in September 
during their Corporate Citizens awards program.
Our Future 
Since opening our doors, Enterprise Bank has been 
devoted to relationship-driven growth and service. 
Over the past year, we continued to invest in that 
commitment with ongoing customer experience 
training throughout our branch network, the remodeling 
of two branch locations to create more welcoming 
and consultative spaces, and the rollout of various 
new technology deployments and updates to better 
support our team members and serve our customers. 
The performance we recorded in 2024 is a testament 
to the value of our people-focused banking approach 
and our continuous efforts to adapt and evolve.
Much has changed in our industry since 1989: 
regulatory compliance costs have risen, the importance 
of investing in technology is at an all-time high, 
the threat of a downturn in the credit cycle is 
ever-present, and competitive risk has steadily 
increased.
With all of this in mind, and with a strong fiduciary 
responsibility at heart, our Board of Directors 
decided it was an appropriate time to consider 
merging the Bank with a larger institution. Rockland 
Trust’s reputation, values, track record of success, 
and compelling offer made them the best match for 
our team members, customers, communities, and 
stakeholders. Subject to shareholder and regulatory 
approval, we expect the merger with Rockland Trust 
to be completed in the second half of 2025.
While this is likely the last annual report we will 
issue as Enterprise Bank, we will move forward with 
the values we have embraced and lived by as we 
continue our work with Rockland Trust.

and uncertainties. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about 
beliefs, expectations, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance, 
are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements often, but not always, may be identified by 
words such as expect, anticipate, believe, intend, potential, estimate, plan, target, goal, or similar words 
or expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as will, may, might, should, would, could, or similar 
variations. The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section

Independent and Enterprise caution that the forward-looking statements in this communication are not 
guarantees of future performance and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and 
assumptions that are difficult to assess and are subject to change based on factors which are, in many 
instances, beyond Independent’s and Enterprise’s control.  While there is no assurance that any list of risks 
and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could cause actual results to 
differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements: (1) changes in general 
economic, political, or industry conditions; (2) uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy, including 
the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; (3) volatility and disruptions in global capital and 
credit markets; (4) movements in interest rates; (5) the resurgence of elevated levels of inflation or infla­
tionary pressures in the United States and the Enterprise and Independent market areas; (6) increased 
competition in the markets of Independent and Enterprise; (7) success, impact, and timing of business 
strategies of Independent and Enterprise; (8) the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions,

or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction); (11) the failure to obtain Enterprise shareholder 
approval or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the proposed transaction on a timely basis or at 
all or other delays in completing the proposed transaction; (12) the occurrence of any event, change or 
other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the merger 
agreement; (13) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Independent or 
Enterprise; (14) the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction are not realized 
when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration 
of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas 
where Independent and Enterprise do business; (15) the possibility that the proposed transaction may be 
more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (16) 
diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; (17) potential 
adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the 
announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; (18) the dilution caused by Independent’s 
issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the proposed transaction; (19) cyber 
incidents or other failures, disruptions or breaches of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, 
or those of our third-party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks; and 
(20) other factors that may affect the future results of Independent and Enterprise. 
Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found
