Dear Shareholders, Customers, and Employees:  

While the business results were solid, I’m equally proud of the 
work that we did to support the communities where we work and 
live, including:

  • $1.6 million in charitable contributions through our Community 
    Relations and HarborOne Foundations in MA and RI to 
    support and empower our local communities and to provide 
    the much-needed services to their constituents 
  • Transitioned our HarborOne U educational programming 
    completely online, providing real-time and pre-recorded 
    programming that enabled us to grow the number of 
    participants that we served  
  • Launched a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee 
    charged with identifying and implementing internal and  
    external programs to support under-represented populations

While we look back on 2020 with heavy hearts for all that was 
lost, we are also grateful for the exceptional team and company 
that we have built.  We thank you for your faith and trust in us, 
and we will work hard every day to be the very best that we can 
be and our customers’ most trusted financial partner.     

Be Well,

James Blake, CEO
HarborOne Bancorp, Inc. 

I’m pleased to share with you the results of what was the most 
challenging, and most successful, year in our history. Certainly our 
financial success is something we’re particularly proud of, but in 
2020 “success” was defined in many other ways. We learned a lot 
about ourselves and about each other, with an outstanding team of 
dedicated professionals who, despite a complete upheaval in their 
personal and professional lives, never took their eye off of our 
commitment to put customers first, helping them navigate the 
tumultuous realities of the pandemic.      

It started, almost overnight, as we transitioned our teams to a 
“work from home” mode using a technology infrastructure that was 
ready to handle the challenge and performed almost flawlessly.  
Our business banking and commercial lenders, and their partners 
in Operations, worked long days and weekends to support 
business customers with the PPP Loan program. HarborOne 
Mortgage delivered $2.8B in new loans, another “best in our 
history” performance thanks to a tireless team of lenders, 
underwriters, and processors. And our branches rose to the 
challenge, as they created and deployed an entirely new retail 
model and protocols for drive-through and appointment banking 
and, eventually, re-opened our branches with a safety-first mindset 
to provide the superior service that our customers expect of us. 

Key Highlights
  • Net income of $44.8 million, or $0.82 per basic and diluted 
    share, compared to $18.3 million, or $0.33 per basic and 
    diluted share, for the year ended 12/31/19
  • Grew our commercial lending portfolio to $2.11B vs. $1.63B for 
    the year ending 12/31/19
  • Opened our new Quincy, MA branch 
  • 30% growth in our mobile and online banking activity as 
    customers migrated more of their business to digital channels
  • Implemented a stock buy-back program, and paid the first 
    dividend in our history
  • For the third consecutive year, named a “Best Bank” in 
    Massachusetts by Forbes, and named to the Boston Globe’s 
    Top Places to Work in MA, an honor we’ve earned for 10 of
    the last 12 years

most affected by the crisis. A sampling of HarborOne’s partners:
