1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements of HarborOne Bancorp, Inc. presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures considered necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. Interim results are not necessarily reflective of the results of the entire year. The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company; the Company’s subsidiaries, Legion Parkway Company LLC (a security corporation) and HarborOne Bank; and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, which consist of HarborOne Mortgage, LLC, HarborOne Security Company, Inc. and a passive investment corporation The passive investment corporation maintains and manages certain assets of the Bank. The security company was established for the purpose of buying, holding and selling securities on its own behalf. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. These changes and reclassifications did not impact previously reported net income or comprehensive income.

Nature of Operations

The Company provides a variety of financial services to individuals and businesses through its 30 full-service branches in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, and a commercial lending office in each of Boston, Massachusetts and Providence, Rhode Island. HarborOne Mortgage maintains offices in Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey and Rhode Island and originates loans in five additional states.

The Company’s primary deposit products are checking, money market, savings, and term certificate of deposit accounts, while its primary lending products are commercial real estate, commercial, residential mortgages, home equity, and consumer loans. The Company also originates, sells and services residential mortgage loans through HarborOne Mortgage.

Risks and Uncertainties

During the first quarter of 2023, the banking industry experienced significant volatility with multiple high-profile bank failures and industry-wide concerns related to liquidity, deposit outflows, unrealized securities losses and eroding consumer confidence in the banking system. In response to these events, the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC jointly announced the BTFP on March 12, 2023. This program aims to enhance liquidity by allowing institutions to pledge certain securities at the par value of the securities, and at a borrowing rate of ten basis points over the one-year overnight index swap rate. The BTFP is available to eligible U.S. federally insured depository institutions, with advances having a term of up to one year and no prepayment penalties.

Macroeconomic trends are mixed as uncertainty remains about the economy and banking industry. Market conditions and external factors may unpredictably impact the competitive landscape for deposits in the banking industry. Additionally, the rising interest rate environment has increased competition for liquidity and the premium at which liquidity is available to meet funding needs. An unexpected increase of withdrawals of deposits could adversely impact the Company’s ability to fund its operations, potentially requiring greater reliance on secondary sources of liquidity to meet withdrawal demands or to fund continuing operations. These sources may include proceeds from FHLB advances, proceeds from the BTFP program, sales of investment securities and loans, federal funds lines of credit from correspondent banks, and brokered deposits.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

Reliance on secondary funding sources could increase the Company’s overall cost of funds and thereby reduce net income. While the Company believes its current sources of liquidity are adequate to fund operations, there is no guarantee they will suffice to meet future liquidity demands. This may necessitate slowing or discontinuing loan growth, capital expenditures, or other investments, or liquidating assets.

Additionally, the Company could experience adverse effects on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows if there is severe or prolonged inflation, a recession, further escalation of the current geopolitical situation, or sustained supply chain disruptions. While asset quality continues to point to economic recovery, the Company’s customers could experience similar adverse effects from these uncertainties that would impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company resulting in deteriorating credit quality and loan charge-offs.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Updates

Significant accounting policies in effect and disclosed within the Company’s most recent audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2022 remain substantially unchanged.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” which eliminated the accounting guidance for TDRs while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. ASU 2022-02 also requires that public business entities disclose current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost.” The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 effective January 1, 2023 on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

U.S. government-sponsored residential mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and securities whose underlying assets are loans from the SBA have stated maturities of two to 28 years; however, it is expected that such securities will have shorter actual lives due to prepayments. U.S. government and government-sponsored enterprise obligations and corporate bonds are callable at the discretion of the issuer. U.S. government and government-sponsored enterprise obligations and corporate bonds with a total fair value of $54.3 million have a final maturity of four to nine years and a call feature of one month to four years. At June 30, 2023, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. government and its agencies, in an amount greater than 10% of shareholder equity.

Management assesses the decline in fair value of investment securities on a regular basis. Unrealized losses on debt securities may occur from current market conditions, increases in interest rates since the time of purchase, a structural change in an investment, volatility of earnings of a specific issuer, or deterioration in credit quality of the issuer. Management evaluates both qualitative and quantitative factors to assess whether an impairment exists. 

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 132 debt securities, 131 of which were in an unrealized loss position. The unrealized losses are primarily related to the Company’s debt securities that were issued by U.S. government-sponsored entities and agencies. The Company does not believe that the debt securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2023 represent a credit loss impairment. As of June 30, 2023, and

12

Table of Contents

HarborOne Bancorp, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

December 31, 2022, the gross unrealized loss positions were primarily related to mortgage-backed securities and other obligations issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These securities carry the explicit and/or implicit guarantee of the U.S. government and have a long history of zero credit loss. Total gross unrealized losses were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and not due to the credit quality of the investment securities.

Management reviewed the collectability of the corporate bonds taking into consideration such factors as the financial condition of the issuers, reported regulatory capital ratios of the issuers, credit ratings, including ratings in effect as of the reporting period date as well as credit rating changes between the reporting period date and the filing date of this report, and other information. Management believes the unrealized losses on the corporate bonds are primarily attributable to changes in the investment spreads and interest rates and not changes in the credit quality of the issuers of the corporate bonds.

Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the available-for-sale debt securities with an unrealized loss. Furthermore, the Company does not intend to sell these securities, and it is likely that the Company will not be required to sell these securities, before recovery of their cost basis, which may be at maturity. Therefore, no ACL was recorded at June 30, 2023.

As of June 30, 2023, the held-to-maturity securities were U.S. government sponsored agency obligations. These securities are guaranteed by the government sponsored agency with a long history of no credit losses and Management has determined these securities to have a zero loss expectation and therefore does not estimate an allowance for credit losses on these securities.

The Company has elected the fair value option for mortgage loans held for sale to better match changes in fair value of the loans with changes in the fair value of the forward sale commitment contracts used to economically hedge them. Changes in fair value of mortgage loans held for sale accounted for under the fair value option election amounted to an increase of $28,000 and $35,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, to $371,000, compared to an increase of $522,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2022 and a decrease of $791,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2022. These amounts are offset in earnings by the changes in fair value of forward sale commitments. The changes in fair value are reported as a component of gain on sale of mortgage loans in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no loans held for sale that were greater than 90 days past due.

The net unamortized deferred loan origination costs included in total loans and leases were $8.0 million and $7.4 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the commercial and industrial loans includes $389,000 and $2.1 million, respectively, of SBA PPP loans and $52,000 and $65,000, respectively, of deferred fees on the PPP loans. PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government.

The Company has transferred a portion of its originated commercial loans to participating lenders. The amounts transferred have been accounted for as sales and are therefore not included in the Company’s accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company and participating lenders share ratably in cash flows and any gains or losses that may result from a borrower’s lack of compliance with contractual terms of the loan. The Company continues to service the loans on behalf of the participating lenders and, as such, collects cash payments from the borrowers, remits payments to participating lenders, and disburses required escrow funds to relevant parties. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was servicing commercial loans for participants in the aggregate amount of $386.5 million and $366.4 million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023, the carrying value of individually analyzed loans amounted to $20.2 million, with a related allowance of $80,000, and $20.0 million of individually analyzed loans were considered collateral-dependent. As of December 31, 2022, the carrying value of individually analyzed loans amounted to $23.8 million, with a related allowance of $203,000, and $15.9 million were considered collateral-dependent.

For collateral-dependent loans where management has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date.

The following table presents the carrying value of collateral-dependent individually analyzed loans as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing.

Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

Effective January 1, 2023, ASU 2022-02 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures was adopted. The Bank will modify the contractual terms of loans to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties as a way to mitigate loss and comply with regulations regarding bankruptcy and discharge situations. Modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may include interest rate reductions, principal or interest forgiveness, forbearances, term extensions, and other actions intended to minimize economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral.

There were no material loan modifications based on borrower financial difficulty during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. There were no loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that had a payment default during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and were modified in the twelve months prior to that default. Default is determined at 90 or more days past due, upon charge-off, or upon foreclosure. Modified loans in default are individually evaluated for the allowance for credit losses or if the modified loan is deemed uncollectible, the loan, or a portion of the loan, is written off, and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted accordingly.

Credit Quality Indicators

Commercial

The Company uses a ten-grade internal loan rating system for commercial real estate, commercial construction and commercial loans, as follows:

Loans rated 1 – 6 are considered “pass”-rated loans with low to average risk.

Loans rated 7 are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management.

Loans rated 8 are considered “substandard.” Generally, a loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected.

Loans rated 9 are considered “doubtful.” Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans rated 10 are considered “uncollectible” (loss), and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted.

Loans not rated consist primarily of certain smaller balance commercial real estate and commercial loans that are managed by exception.

On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews on a risk-adjusted basis, the ratings on all commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans. Semi-annually, the Company engages an independent third party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process.

Residential and Consumer

On a monthly basis, the Company reviews the residential construction, residential real estate and consumer installment portfolios for credit quality primarily through the use of delinquency reports.

MORTGAGE LOAN SERVICING

The Company sells residential mortgages to government-sponsored entities and other parties. The Company retains no beneficial interests in these loans, but it may retain the servicing rights of the loans sold. Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. The risks inherent in MSRs relate primarily to changes in prepayments that generally result from shifts in mortgage interest rates. The unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans serviced for others was $3.60 billion and $3.62 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

The Company accounts for MSRs at fair value. The Company obtains and reviews valuations from an independent third party to determine the fair value of MSRs. Key assumptions used in the estimation of fair value include prepayment speeds, discount rates, and default rates. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the following weighted average assumptions were used in the calculation of fair value of MSRs:

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

There were no changes in the carrying value of goodwill for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Bank and HarborOne Mortgage are identified as reporting units for purposes of goodwill impairment testing. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying value of the Bank’s goodwill was $59.0 million as of both dates, and the carrying value of HarborOne Mortgage’s goodwill was $10.8 million as of both dates.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually on October 31 or on an interim basis if an event triggering impairment may have occurred. As of June 30, 2023, the Company assessed whether there were additional events or changes in circumstances since its annual goodwill impairment test that would indicate that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the reporting unit’s carrying amounts that would require an interim impairment assessment after October 31, 2022. The Company determined there had been no such indicators, therefore, no interim goodwill impairment assessment as of June 30, 2023 was performed.

The process of evaluating fair value is highly subjective and requires significant judgment and estimates. The goodwill at the Bank and HarborOne Mortgage is at risk of future impairment if projected operating results are not met or other inputs into the fair value measurement model change. If concerns persist in the banking sector as a result of the recent bank failures, management may determine a triggering event has occurred, which would cause us to perform an interim

impairment test. Interim impairment tests at the Bank or HarborOne Mortgage may result in an impairment charge being recorded in the period.

Other intangible assets were $1.9 million and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company determined that there was no triggering event that warranted an interim impairment test at June 30, 2023.

Total municipal deposits included in the table amounted to $497.9 million at June 30, 2023 and $413.5 million at December 31, 2022. Municipal deposits are generally required to be fully insured. The Company provided supplemental insurance for municipal deposits through DIF, a reciprocal deposit program or letters of credit offered by the FHLB. DIF was exited February 24, 2023 and will generally provide coverage until February 24, 2024 on deposits that existed at the exit date. The Company has established a relationship to participate in a reciprocal deposit program with other financial institutions. The reciprocal deposit program provides access to FDIC-insured deposit products in aggregate amounts exceeding the current limits for depositors. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, total reciprocal deposits were $149.2 million and $28.6 million, respectively, consisting of non-certificate accounts.

(1) Callable FHLB advances are shown in the respective periods assuming that the callable debt is redeemed at the call date, while all other advances are shown in the periods corresponding to their scheduled maturity date. There were four callable advances at June 30, 2023.

(2) Weighted average rates are based on scheduled maturity dates.

The FHLB advances are secured by a blanket security agreement which requires the Bank to maintain certain qualifying assets as collateral, principally residential mortgage loans and commercial real estate loans held in the Bank’s portfolio. The carrying value of the loans pledged as collateral for these borrowings totaled $1.83 billion at June 30, 2023 and $1.71 billion at December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $583.7 million of available borrowing capacity with the FHLB.

The Company also has additional borrowing capacity under a $25.0 million unsecured federal funds line with a correspondent bank and a secured line of credit with the FRBB, secured by 69% of the carrying value of commercial loans with principal balances amounting to $99.7 million and $100.2 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. No amounts were outstanding under either line at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

On March 12, 2023, the Federal Reserve announced the creation of the BTFP. The BTFP offers loans of up to one year to banks, savings associations, credit unions, and other eligible depository institutions pledging U.S. Treasury securities, agency debt and mortgage-backed securities, and other qualifying assets as collateral. These assets are valued at par for purposes of the collateral pledge under the BTFP. The Company has $366.8 million in borrowing capacity under this program, and no amounts were outstanding at June 30, 2023.

On August 30, 2018, the Company issued $35.0 million in fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2028 in a private placement to institutional accredited investors. The Notes bear interest at annual fixed rate of 5.625% until September 1, 2023, at which time the interest rate resets quarterly to an interest rate per annum equal to the three–month CME Term SOFR plus applicable spread adjustment plus 278 basis points. Interest is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 each year through September 1, 2023 and quarterly thereafter. The Notes can be redeemed partially or in whole, prior to the maturity date beginning September 1, 2023 and on any scheduled interest payment date thereafter, at par. The Notes are carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheets net of unamortized issuance costs of $652,000 and $715,000 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Loan Commitments

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and advance funds on various lines of credit. Those commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit and unadvanced portion of construction loans are agreements to lend to a customer, as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments to grant loans generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments for unadvanced funds on construction loans and home equity and revolving lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. Commitments to grant loans, and unadvanced construction loans and home equity lines of credit are collateralized by real estate, while revolving lines of credit are unsecured.

10.

DERIVATIVES

The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally to manage the Company’s interest rate risk. Additionally, the Company enters into interest rate derivatives to accommodate the business requirements of its customers. All derivatives are recognized as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and are measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends upon whether or not it qualifies as a hedge for accounting purposes, and further, by the type of hedging relationship.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

Fair Value Hedge- The Company is exposed to changes in the fair value of fixed-rate assets due to changes in benchmark interest rates. In June 2023, to manage its exposure to changes in the fair value of a closed asset pool of fixed rate, residential mortgages, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $100.0 million, designated as fair value portfolio layer hedges. The Company receives variable-rate interest payments in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the lives of the contracts without exchanging the notional amounts. The gain or loss on these derivatives, as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged items attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had two interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $100.0 million that were designated as a fair value hedge of fixed rate residential mortgages. The hedges were determined to be effective during the three months ended June 30, 2023, and the Company expects the hedges to remain effective during the remaining terms of the swaps.

(1) These amounts were included in the amortized cost basis of closed portfolios used to designate hedging relationships in which the hedged item is the last layer expected to be remaining at the end of the hedging relationship. At June 30, 2023, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolios used in these hedging relationships was $1.25 billion; the cumulative basis adjustments associated with these hedging relationships was $(444,000) and the amount of the designated hedged items were $100.0 million.

Cashflow Hedge- As part of its interest rate risk management strategy, the Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to help manage its interest rate risk positions. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent the amount exchanged by the parties. The exchange of cash flows is determined by reference to the notional amounts and the other terms of the interest rate swap agreements. The changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cashflow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to earnings when gains or losses are realized.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had one interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $100.0 million that was designated as a cashflow hedge of brokered deposits. The interest rate swap agreement has an average maturity of 1.78 years, the current weighted average fixed rate paid is 0.671%, the weighted average 3-month LIBOR swap receive rate is 5.157%, and the fair value is $7.6 million. The Company expects approximately $4.7 million related to the cashflow hedge to be reclassified to interest expense, from other comprehensive income, in the next twelve months.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Derivative Loan Commitments- Mortgage loan commitments qualify as derivative loan commitments if the loan that will result from exercise of the commitment will be held for sale upon funding. The Company enters into commitments to fund residential mortgage loans at specified times in the future, with the intention that these loans will subsequently be sold in the secondary market. A mortgage loan commitment binds the Company to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specified interest rate and within a specified period of time, generally up to 60 days after inception of the rate lock.

Outstanding derivative loan commitments expose the Company to the risk that the price of the loans arising from exercise of the loan commitment might decline from inception of a rate lock to funding of the loan due to increases in mortgage interest rates. If interest rates increase, the value of these loan commitments decreases. Conversely, if interest rates decrease, the value of these loan commitments increases.

Forward Loan Sale Commitments-The Company utilizes both “mandatory delivery” and “best efforts” forward loan sale commitments to mitigate the risk of potential decreases in the values of loans that would result from the exercise of the derivative loan commitments.

With a “mandatory delivery” contract, the Company commits to deliver a certain principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price on or before a specified date. If the Company fails to deliver the number of mortgages necessary to fulfill the commitment by the specified date, it is obligated to pay a “pair-off” fee, based on then-current market prices, to the investor to compensate the investor for the shortfall.

26

Table of Contents

HarborOne Bancorp, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

With a “best efforts” contract, the Company commits to deliver an individual mortgage loan of a specified principal amount and quality to an investor if the loan to the underlying borrower closes. Generally, the price the investor will pay the seller for an individual loan is specified prior to the loan being funded (e.g., on the same day the lender commits to lend funds to a potential borrower).

The Company expects that these forward loan sale commitments will experience changes in fair value opposite to the change in fair value of derivative loan commitments.

Interest Rate Swaps-The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements that are transacted to meet the financing needs of its commercial customers. Offsetting interest rate swap agreements are simultaneously transacted with a third-party financial institution to effectively eliminate the Company’s interest rate risk associated with the customer swaps. The primary risks associated with these transactions arise from exposure to the ability of the counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. The interest rate swap notional amount is the aggregate notional amount of the customer swap and the offsetting third-party swap. The Company also assesses the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determines whether the credit valuation adjustments are significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives.

Risk Participation Agreements-The Company has entered into risk participation agreements with correspondent institutions and shares in any interest rate swap losses incurred as a result of the commercial loan customers’ termination of a loan-level interest rate swap agreement prior to maturity. The Company records these risk participation agreements at fair value. The Company’s maximum credit exposure is based on its proportionate share of the settlement amount of the referenced interest rate swap. Settlement amounts are generally calculated based on the fair value of the swap plus outstanding accrued interest receivables from the customer.

12.MINIMUM REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Under the capital rules, risk-based capital ratios are calculated by dividing Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, and total risk-based capital, respectively, by risk-weighted assets. Assets and off-balance sheet credit equivalents are assigned to one of several risk-weight categories, based primarily on relative risk. The rules require banks and bank holding companies to maintain a minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%, a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% and a total capital ratio of 8.0%. In addition, a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0% is required. Additionally, the capital rules require a bank holding company to maintain a capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital in an amount above the minimum risk-based capital requirements equal to 2.5% of total risk weighted assets, or face restrictions on the ability to pay dividends, pay discretionary bonuses, and to engage in share repurchases.

Under the FDIC’s prompt corrective action rules, an insured state nonmember bank is considered “well capitalized” if its capital ratios meet or exceed the ratios as set forth in the following table and is not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure. The Bank must meet well capitalized requirements under prompt corrective action provisions. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

A bank holding company is considered “well capitalized” if the bank holding company (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6.0%, and (iii) is not subject to any written agreement order, capital directive or prompt corrective action directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure.

At June 30, 2023, the capital levels of both the Company and the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and their regulatory capital ratios were above the minimum levels required to be considered well capitalized for regulatory purposes. The capital levels of both the Company and the Bank at June 30, 2023 also exceeded the minimum capital requirements, including the currently applicable capital conservation buffer of 2.5%.

13.COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities are reported as a separate component of the stockholders’ equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income (loss).

The following table presents changes in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income by component for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

•Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

•Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures:

Debt Securities – Available-for-sale debt securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of debt securities; such items are classified as Level 1. There were no Level 1 securities held at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Level 2 debt securities are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments. The fair value of these securities is determined using matrix pricing with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category includes obligations of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, including mortgage-backed securities, individual name issuer trust preferred debt securities and corporate bonds.

Debt securities not actively traded whose fair value is determined through the use of cash flows utilizing inputs that are unobservable are classified as Level 3. There were no Level 3 securities held at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Loans held for sale - The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is estimated based on current market prices for similar loans in the secondary market and therefore are classified as Level 2 assets. There were no mortgage loans held for sale 90 days or more past due as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans - The fair value of collateral-dependent loans that are deemed to be impaired is determined based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. Such collateral primarily consists of real estate and, to a lesser extent, other business assets. For collateral-dependent loans for which repayment is dependent on the sale of the collateral, management adjusts the fair value for estimated costs to sell. For collateral-dependent loans for which repayment is dependent on the operation of the collateral, estimated costs to sell are not incorporated into the measurement. Management may also adjust appraised values to reflect estimated market value declines or apply other discounts to appraised values resulting from its knowledge of the property. Internal valuations are utilized to determine the fair value of other business assets. Collateral-dependent impaired loans are categorized as Level 3.

Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, the Company reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics.

Retirement plan annuities - The carrying value of the annuities are based on their contract values which approximate fair value.

33

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

MSRs - Fair value is based on a third-party valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income and includes observable market data such as prepayment speeds and default and loss rates.

Deposits and mortgagors’ escrow accounts - The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) and mortgagors’ escrow accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a DCF calculation that applies market interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Borrowed funds - The fair values of borrowed funds are estimated using DCF analyses based on the current incremental borrowing rates in the market for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Accrued interest - The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

Derivatives

Derivatives designated as hedging instrument - The Company works directly with a third-party vendor to provide periodic valuations for its interest rate risk management agreements to determine fair value of its interest rate swaps executed for interest rate risk management. The vendor utilizes standard valuation methodologies applicable to interest rate derivatives based on readily observable market data and are therefore considered Level 2 valuations.

Forward loan sale commitments and derivative loan commitments - Forward loan sale commitments and derivative loan commitments are based on fair values of the underlying mortgage loans and the probability of such commitments being exercised. The assumptions for pull-through rates are derived from internal data and adjusted using management judgment. Derivative loan commitments include the value of servicing rights and non-refundable costs of originating the loan based on the Company’s internal cost analysis that is not observable. The weighted average pull-through rate for derivative loan commitments was approximately 91% at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Interest rate swaps and risk participation agreements - The Company’s interest rate swaps are traded in over-the-counter markets where quoted market prices are not readily available. For these interest rate derivatives, fair value is determined by a third party utilizing models that use primarily market observable inputs, such as swap rates and yield curves. The pricing models used to value interest rate swaps calculate the sum of each instrument’s fixed and variable cash flows, which are then discounted using an appropriate yield curve to arrive at the fair value of each swap. The pricing models do not contain a high level of subjectivity as the methodologies used do not require significant judgment.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its interest rate swaps and risk participation agreements fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with interest rate contracts and risk participation agreements utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company classified its derivative valuations in their entirety as Level 2.

Off-balance sheet credit-related instruments - Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of off-balance sheet instruments is immaterial.

Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period, if applicable. There were no transfers during the periods presented.

Sales Comparison Approach (1)

(1) Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral which includes unobservable inputs such as adjustments for differences between the comparable sales. The Company may also use another source of collateral assessment to determine a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the collateral. Appraisals may be adjusted by Management for qualitative factors and estimated liquidation expenses. Generally, appraisals for residential real estate and commercial real estate loan are discounted 20%. Commercial and industrial appraisals are generally discounted 25%-50%. Management may take larger discounts to reflect market liquidity for certain types of assets not addressed in the appraisals.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic EPS represents net income attributable to common shareholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Non-vested restricted shares that are participating securities are included in the computation of basic EPS. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus the effect of potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. At June 30, 2023, potential common shares of 1,308,266 were considered to be anti-dilutive and excluded from EPS. There were no potential shares considered to be anti-dilutive at June 30, 2022.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from contracts with customers in the scope of ASC Topic 606 is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers when it satisfies its performance obligations.

The Company’s performance obligations are generally satisfied as services are rendered and can either be satisfied at a point in time or over time. Unsatisfied performance obligations at the report date are not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In certain cases, other parties are involved with providing services to our customers. If the Company is a principal in the transaction (providing services itself or through a third party on its behalf), revenues are reported based on the gross consideration received from the customer and any related expenses are reported gross in noninterest expense. If the Company is an agent in the transaction (referring to another party to provide services), the Company reports its net fee or commission retained as revenue.

The Company recognizes revenue that is transactional in nature and such revenue is earned at a point in time. Revenue that is recognized at a point in time includes card interchange fees (fee income related to debit card transactions), ATM fees, wire transfer fees, overdraft charge fees, and stop-payment and returned check fees. Additionally, revenue is collected from loan fees, such as letters of credit, line renewal fees and application fees. Such revenue is derived from transactional information and is recognized as revenue immediately as the transactions occur or upon providing the service to complete the customer’s transaction.

17.

SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has two reportable segments: HarborOne Bank and HarborOne Mortgage. Revenue from HarborOne Bank consists primarily of interest earned on loans and investment securities and service charges on deposit accounts. Revenue from HarborOne Mortgage comprises interest earned on loans and fees received as a result of the residential mortgage origination, sale and servicing process.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Segment profit and loss is measured by net income on a legal entity basis. Intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This section is intended to assist in the understanding of the financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries through a discussion of our financial condition at June 30, 2023, and our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. This section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of the Company appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements herein constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act and are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We may also make forward-looking statements in other documents we file with the SEC, in our annual reports to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials, and in oral statements made by our officers, directors or employees. Such statements may be identified by words such as “believes,” “will,” “would,” “expects,” “project,” “may,” “could,” “developments,” “strategic,” “launching,” “opportunities,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets” and similar expressions. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors. Factors that could cause such differences to exist include, but are not limited to, changes in general business and economic conditions (including inflation and concerns about liquidity) on a national basis and in the local markets in which the Company operates, including changes that adversely affect borrowers’ ability to service and repay the Company’s loans; changes in customer behavior; ongoing turbulence in the capital and debt markets and the impact of such conditions on the Company’s business activities; changes in interest rates; increases in loan default and charge-off rates; decreases in the value of securities in the Company’s investment portfolio; fluctuations in real estate values; the possibility that future credit losses may be higher than currently expected due to changes in economic assumptions, customer behavior or adverse economic developments; the adequacy of loan loss reserves; decreases in deposit levels necessitating increased borrowing to fund loans and investments; competitive pressures from other financial institutions; acquisitions may not produce results at levels or within time frames originally anticipated; cybersecurity incidents, fraud, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, and future pandemics; changes in regulation; changes in accounting standards and practices; the risk that goodwill and intangibles recorded in the Company’s financial statements will become impaired; demand for loans in the Company’s market area; the Company’s ability to attract and maintain deposits; risks related to the implementation of acquisitions, dispositions, and restructurings; the risk that the Company may not be successful in the implementation of its business strategy; changes in assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements and the risk factors described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as filed with the SEC, which are available at the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov. Should one or more of these risks materialize or should underlying beliefs or assumptions prove incorrect, HarborOne’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release. The Company disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes, except as required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Modifications to significant accounting policies made during the year are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report. The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP and practices generally applicable to the financial services industry requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and to disclose contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain of our accounting policies, which are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently

42

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

Management has identified the Company’s most critical accounting policies as related to:

•Allowance for Credit Losses

•Goodwill

•Deferred Tax Assets

The accounting policies and estimates, including the nature of the estimates and types of assumptions used, are described in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K and pertain to discussion in Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of this report.

Recent Developments

In light of recent events in the banking sector, including recent bank failures, increasing interest rates and recessionary concerns, the Company continues to proactively assess the operations of the Bank and HarborOne Mortgage to mitigate the risks impacting the banking industry and ensure that the Company continues to serve its clients and communities in a cost-effective way.

The Company enacted cost-savings measures and operational efficiencies during the first and second quarter of 2023 that will result in approximately $4.1 million in annual savings.

The Company has cash and available-for-sale securities representing 9.6% of assets at June 30, 2023 and 7.5% of assets at December 31, 2022. The Company maintains the ability to access contingent liquidity at the FHLB and the FRBB totaling $1.0 billion and $861.1 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Management considers the Company’s current liquidity position to be adequate to meet both short-term and long-term liquidity needs. Refer to the section “Liquidity Management and Capital Resources” for additional information. Additionally, the Company and Bank are above the standards to be considered well-capitalized under regulatory requirements. Refer to “Note 12. Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements,” included in this report.

Macroeconomic trends continue to be mixed as uncertainty remains about the economy and banking industry. Market conditions and external factors may unpredictably impact the Company. For additional factors that could adversely impact the Company’s future results of operations and financial condition, see the section labeled “Risk Factors” in Part II Item 1A below and Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as updated by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings submitted to the SEC.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022

Total Assets.  Total assets increased $299.7 million, or 5.6%, to $5.66 billion at June 30, 2023 from $5.36 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase primarily reflects an increase of $151.0 million in short-term investments and a $148.5 million increase in loans. The increase in short-term investments reflects management’s proactive liquidity-enhancing measures in response to financial industry concerns.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents increased $154.8 million to $252.9 million at June 30, 2023 from $98.0 million at December 31, 2022, primarily due to an increase in short-term investments.

Loans Held for Sale.  Loans held for sale at June 30, 2023 were $20.9 million, an increase of $2.4 million from $18.5 million at December 31, 2022.

(1) Represents the basis adjustment associated with the application of hedge accounting on certain residential real estate loans. Refer to Note 10 - Derivatives.

The increase in net loans is primarily due to commercial real estate and residential real estate loan growth. Management continues to seek prudent commercial lending opportunities to deepen relationships with existing customers and develop new relationships with strong borrowers. The ACL was $47.8 million at June 30, 2023 and $45.2 million at December 31, 2022. See additional disclosure in the Asset Quality section below.

Securities.  Investment securities available for sale at June 30, 2023 were $292.0 million, a decrease of $9.1 million, or 3.0%, from $301.1 million at December 31, 2022. Securities available for sale were negatively impacted by unrealized losses of $66.5 million and $68.3 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the gross unrealized loss positions were primarily related to mortgage-backed securities and other obligations issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These securities carry the explicit and/or implicit guarantee of the U.S. government and have a long history of zero credit loss. Total gross unrealized losses were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and not due to the credit quality of the investment securities.

Securities held to maturity amounted to $19.8 million at June 30, 2023 and $19.9 million at December 31, 2022, with a fair value of $19.0 million and $19.3 million, respectively.

Mortgage servicing rights.  MSRs are created as a result of our mortgage banking origination activities and accounted for at fair value. At June 30, 2023, we serviced mortgage loans for others with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $3.60 billion. Total MSRs were $48.2 million at June 30, 2023 and $48.1 million at December 31, 2022. The change in total MSRs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 reflects additions of $1.3 million, amortization from loan repayment of $850,000 and a negative fair value mark of $406,000.

Quarterly, we utilize a third-party provider to assist in the determination of the fair value of our MSRs. They provide the appropriate prepayment speed, and discount and default rate assumptions based on our portfolio and key benchmark mortgage rates. Management reviews the assumptions and calculation. Any measurement of fair value is

44

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

limited by the conditions existing and assumptions made at a particular point in time. Those assumptions may not be appropriate if they are applied to a different point in time.

The assumptions used in the MSR fair value calculation are significantly impacted by the residential mortgage benchmark indices. Decreasing mortgage rates normally encourages increased mortgage refinancing activity, which reduces the life of the loans underlying the MSRs, thereby reducing the value of MSRs, whereas increasing interest rates would result in increases in fair value, and a corresponding increase in earnings. MSRs recorded during periods of historically low interest rates may be less sensitive to falling rates in the future as they were originated in a low mortgage rate environment.

Deposits.  Deposits increased $98.0 million, or 2.3%, to $4.29 billion at June 30, 2023 from $4.19 billion at December 31, 2022. The following table sets forth information concerning the composition of deposits:

The growth in deposits was driven by an increase of $84.4 million in municipal deposits and $13.6 million in brokered deposits. We participate in a reciprocal deposit program that provides access to FDIC-insured deposit products in aggregate amounts exceeding the current limits for depositors. Total deposits included $149.2 million in reciprocal deposits. The brokered deposits provide a channel for the Company to seek additional funding outside the Company’s core market.

The total of estimated deposits in excess of the FDIC insurance limits amounted to $1.5 billion and $1.3 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In 2022, insurance for deposits in excess of FDIC limits was provided through the Depositors Insurance Fund. On February 24, 2023, at 5 p.m. local time, the Bank exited DIF. All customer non-certificate deposits as of that date and time will remain covered by DIF insurance for one year until February 24, 2024. Certificates of deposit as of that date and time will remain covered by DIF insurance until their maturity date. Including DIF excess insurance coverage, insured deposits are approximately 88% of total deposits, including Bank subsidiary deposits.

Borrowed Funds.  FHLB borrowings increased $203.9 million to $604.6 million at June 30, 2023 from $400.7 million at December 31, 2022. At June 30, 2023, FHLB borrowings were primarily short-term borrowings as the Bank utilized available credit to enhance liquidity. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank had $1.0 billion in available borrowing capacity across multiple relationships.

Stockholders’ equity.  Total stockholders’ equity was $595.5 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $617.0 million at December 31, 2022 and $624.5 million at June 30, 2022. Stockholders’ equity decreased 3.5% when compared to the year end, as earnings were offset by share repurchases. The Company completed its fifth share repurchase on April 13, 2023 of 2,450,208 shares at an average price of $13.01, including $0.13 per share of excise tax. A sixth share repurchase program was approved and commenced in the third quarter of 2023.

The tangible-common equity-to-tangible-assets ratio was 9.38% at June 30, 2023, 10.31% at December 31, 2022  and 11.92% at June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2023, the capital levels of both the Company and the Bank exceeded all

45

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

regulatory capital requirements and their regulatory capital ratios were above the minimum levels required to be considered well capitalized for regulatory purposes. The capital levels of both the Company and the Bank at June 30, 2023, also exceeded the minimum capital requirements, including the currently applicable capital conservation buffer of 2.5%. Regulatory capital ratios are not impacted by the decline in other comprehensive income as a result of the unrealized losses on available-for-sale investment securities.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

HarborOne Bancorp, Inc. Consolidated

Overview.  Consolidated net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $7.5 million and $14.8 million, respectively, compared to net income of $10.0 million and $22.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Average Balances and Yields.  The following tables set forth average balance sheets, annualized average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated, on a consolidated basis. Interest income on tax-exempt loans and securities has been adjusted to a fully taxable-equivalent basis using a federal tax rate of 21%. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Rate/Volume Analysis.  The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the periods indicated, on a consolidated basis. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The total column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

HarborOne Bank Segment

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Net Income.  The Bank’s net income decreased $2.1 to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in net income reflects a decrease of $4.8 million, or 12.8%, in net interest and dividend income and an increase in provision for credit losses of $737,000, or 28.9%, partially offset by a $1.1 million, or 21.5% increase in noninterest income and a $938,000, or 3.5%, decrease in noninterest expense.

Compared to the first six months of 2022, the Bank’s net income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $1.8 million to $16.4 million from $18.2 million. The decrease in net income reflects a decrease of $3.6 million, or 5.1%, in net interest and dividend income and an increase in provision for credit losses of $2.3 million, or 78.5%, partially offset by a $702,000, or 6.1%, increase in noninterest income and a $1.6 million, or 2.9%, decrease in noninterest expense.

Provision for Credit Losses.  The Bank recorded provision for credit losses of $3.3 million and $5.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses on loans was $3.5 million offset by a $215,000 negative provision on unfunded commitments. The $3.5 million provisioning primarily reflects replenishment as a result of a $2.9 million charge-off and loan growth. The Bank recorded provision for credit losses of $2.5 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for credit losses included a $1.2 million ACL on loans and a $1.3 million ACL on unfunded commitments.

Net charge-offs totaled $2.7 million, or 0.23% of average loans outstanding on an annualized basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to net recoveries of $505,000, or 0.05% of average loans outstanding on an annualized basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Net charge-offs totaled $2.7 million, or 0.12% of average loans outstanding on an annualized basis for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the net charge-offs of $2.2 million for the same period in 2022. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, a $2.9 million charge-off was recorded on a metro office space commercial real estate credit with a June 30, 2023 carrying value of $7.0 million. The 2022 six-month period included a $2.8 million charge-off upon the resolution of one credit, previously included in the office at-risk sector, in the amount of $8.8 million. At June 30, 2023, nonperforming assets were $20.2 million, and nonperforming assets to total assets were 0.36% as compared to $24.4 million and 0.52%, respectively, at June 30, 2022.

Noninterest Income.  Total noninterest income was $6.5 million and $12.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $5.3 million and $11.4 million for the respective prior year period. The following table sets forth the components of noninterest income:

The primary reasons for the variances within the noninterest income categories shown in the preceding tables are noted below:

The Bank records an intersegment loss on loans purchased from HarborOne Mortgage that is offset in consolidation. The Bank purchased $102.1 million of residential mortgage loans from HarborOne Mortgage during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $217.1 million for the prior year period.
The change in the MSR fair value is generally consistent with the change in key benchmark residential mortgage rates. As interest rates rise and prepayment speeds decrease, MSR fair value tends to increase. Conversely, when interest rates fall and prepayment speeds increase, MSR fair value tends to decrease.
The increase in other deposit account fees reflects an increase in overdraft protection fees of $66,000 and $198,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Swap fee income is collected and recorded at the time the swap contract is entered into, and therefore income fluctuates as a function of the swap agreements entered into in a period.
The year-to-date decrease in other noninterest income primarily reflects a positive credit valuation adjustment of $239,000 on the termination of an interest rate swap that was included in other noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and no such income in 2023.

The primary reasons for the significant variances within the noninterest expense categories shown in the preceding table are noted below:

The decrease in compensation expense primarily reflects decreased expense related to incentive and benefit accruals.

The year to date decrease in occupancy expense reflects a decrease in building maintenance and landscaping.

Data processing expenses increased due to an increase in core system processing fees.

The decrease in professional fees reflects a decrease in consulting services.

The increase in deposit insurance reflects a two-basis-point increase in the insurance rate.

Gain on sale of mortgages and processing, underwriting and closing fees decreased as mortgage demand remains weak on higher interest rates compared to the respective prior year period.
The decrease in the secondary market loan servicing fee net of guarantee fees reflects the decrease in the average serviced mortgage loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the respective prior year periods.

The primary reasons for the significant variances within the noninterest expense categories shown in the preceding table are noted below:

The decrease in compensation and benefits primarily reflects decreased commission expense consistent with the changes in mortgage origination volumes and decreased staffing levels;

Loan expense primarily is for expenses to originate loans and is generally consistent with mortgage origination volumes. The quarter-over-quarter increase reflects a decrease in the deferred loan expenses on loans sold to the Bank;
The increase in marketing reflects increased advertising; and
The decrease in other expenses reflects decreased employment agency fees.

Credit quality performance has remained strong, with total nonperforming assets of $20.2 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $14.8 million at December 31, 2022 and $24.4 million at June 30, 2022. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 0.36% at June 30, 2023, 0.28% at December 31, 2022, and 0.52% at June 30, 2022.

We continue to closely monitor our loan portfolio for signs of deterioration. Management is focused on commercial real estate in light of speculation that commercial real estate values may deteriorate as the market adjusts to higher vacancies and rates. We have also identified certain sectors within the commercial real estate segment that may be particularly susceptible to increased credit risk as a result of trends that were precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic and may be exacerbated by current economic conditions. This includes business-oriented hotels, non-anchored retail space and metro office space. As of June 30, 2023, business-oriented hotels loans included 13 loans with a total outstanding balance of $114.8 million, non-anchored retail space loans included 28 loans with a total outstanding balance of $41.5 million, and metro office space loans included two loans with a total outstanding balance of $11.9 million. As of June 30, 2023, there was one metro office space loan with a carrying value of $7.0 million, that was rated doubtful and on nonaccrual and one business-oriented hotel credit with a carrying value of $1.8 million that was rated substandard and on nonaccrual. The other loans in these groups were performing in accordance with their terms.

Management employs a process and methodology to estimate the ACL on loans that evaluates both quantitative and qualitative factors. The methodology for evaluating quantitative factors consists of two basic components. The first component involves pooling loans into portfolio segments for loans that share similar risk characteristics. A DCF methodology is used to estimate credit losses for each pooled portfolio segment. The methodology incorporates the probability of default and loss given default. Management utilizes the national unemployment rate as an econometric factor with a one-year forecast period and one-year straight-line reversion period to its historical mean in order to estimate the probability of default for each loan portfolio segment. Utilizing a third-party regression model, the forecasted national unemployment rate is correlated with the probability of default for each loan portfolio segment. The DCF methodology combines the probability of default, the loss given default, maturity date and prepayment speeds to estimate a reserve for

58

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

each loan. The sum of all the loan level reserves is aggregated for each portfolio segment and a loss rate factor is derived. Quantitative loss factors for pooled loans are also supplemented by certain qualitative risk factors reflecting management’s view of how losses may vary from those represented by quantitative loss rates.

The second component involves individually analyzed loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with loans that are pooled into portfolio segments. For loans that are individually analyzed, the ACL is measured using a DCF methodology based upon the loan’s contractual effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price, or, if the loan is collateral-dependent, at the fair value of the collateral.

In estimating the ACL on loans, management considers the sensitivity of the model and significant judgments and assumptions that could result in an amount that is materially different from management’s estimate. Management performed a sensitivity analysis to understand the impact of hypothetical changes in qualitative loss factors on the ACL. The sensitivity analysis evaluated the impact of changes to commercial loan segments due to the concentration of the Bank’s ACL allocation in the total commercial portfolio. At June 30, 2023, the potential impact of changes to management’s judgments on total commercial qualitative risk factors ranged between a $12.2 million reduction and $13.1 million increase in the ACL. This sensitivity analysis does not represent a change to management’s judgment, but rather provides a hypothetical result to assess the sensitivity of the ACL to a key input.

The ACL was $47.8 million, or 1.02% of total loans, at June 30, 2023, compared to $45.2 million, or 0.99% of total loans, at December 31, 2022. The ACL on individually analyzed loans amounted to $80,000, 0.38% of the carrying value of individually analyzed loans. The ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other liabilities on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, amounted to $4.8 million and $4.9 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Net charge-offs were $2.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Net recoveries were $505,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and net charge-offs were $2.2 million or 0.12% of average loans outstanding on an annualized basis for the six months ended June 30, 2022. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, a $2.9 million charge-off was recorded on a metro office space commercial real estate credit, and it was placed on nonaccrual. As of June 30, 2023, the carrying value of the credit is $7.0 million. The commercial real estate charge-off in 2022 was primarily due to the resolution of one credit in the amount of $8.8 million for which the Company also recorded a $2.8 million charge-off.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Management of Market Risk

The principal market risk facing the Company is interest-rate risk. The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee establishes exposure limits that govern the Company’s tolerance for interest-rate risk. The policy limits and guidelines serve as benchmarks for measuring interest-rate risk and for providing a framework for evaluation and interest-rate risk-management decision making. The Company’s primary measure of its interest-rate risk is an income simulation model and an economic value of equity analysis.

Net Interest Income Analysis.  The Company uses income simulation as the primary tool for measuring interest-rate risk inherent in our balance sheet at a given point in time by showing the effect on net interest income, over specified time frames, of instantaneous parallel shifts in market rates. For simulation purposes, the Company’s balance sheet is assumed to remain static over the simulation horizon. The model results are dependent on material assumptions. These assumptions include, but are not limited to, management’s best assessment of the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment speeds of certain assets and liabilities, projections for account balances in each of the product lines offered and the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates (deposit betas). These assumptions are inherently changeable, and as a result, the model is not expected to precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from the simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in the balance sheet composition and market conditions. Assumptions are supported with quarterly back-testing of the model to actual market rate shifts.

The table below sets forth, as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the net interest income simulation results that estimate the impact of interest rate changes on the Company’s estimated net interest income over two years:

(1) The calculated change in net interest income assumes an instantaneous parallel shift of the yield curve.

Economic Value of Equity Analysis.  The Company also uses the net present value of EVE methodology. This methodology calculates the difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and liabilities. The comparative scenarios assume an immediate parallel shift in the yield curve up 100, 200, and 300 basis points and down 100 basis points.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The table below sets forth, as of June 30, 2023 the estimated changes in the EVE that would result from an instantaneous parallel shift in interest rates. Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results.

(2) EVE Ratio represents EVE divided by the economic value of assets.

The board of directors and management review the methodology’s measurements for both net interest income and EVE on a quarterly basis to determine whether the exposure resulting from the changes in interest rates remains within established tolerance levels and develop appropriate strategies to manage this exposure.

Liquidity Management and Capital Resources

Liquidity measures the Company’s ability to meet both current and future financial obligations of a short- and long-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of securities, and borrowings from the FHLB. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, calls of investment securities and borrowed funds, and prepayments on loans are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.

The objective of our liquidity risk management process is to manage cash flow and liquidity in an effort to provide continuous access to sufficient, reasonably priced funds. Funding requirements are impacted by loan originations and refinancings, deposit balance changes, liability issuances and settlements, and off-balance sheet funding commitments. We consider and comply with various regulatory guidelines regarding required liquidity levels and periodically monitor our liquidity position in light of the changing economic environment and customer activity. Based on periodic liquidity assessments, we may alter our asset, liability, and off-balance sheet positions. Management regularly adjusts our investments in liquid assets based upon an assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (iv) the objectives of our interest rate risk and investment policies.

We continue to focus on maintaining a strong liquidity position. We have access to immediate liquid resources in cash and cash equivalents of $252.9 million at June 30, 2023, which is primarily on deposit with FRBB. Maturities and payments on outstanding loans and investment securities also provide a steady flow of funds. Liquidity is further enhanced by our ability to pledge loans to access secured borrowings from the FHLB and FRBB. As of June 30, 2023, we had additional borrowing capacity of $583.7 million from the FHLB, $68.8 million from the FRBB line based on the amount of collateral pledged, and $366.8 million available based on the par value of securities pledged under our facility through the FRB BTFP. We also have additional borrowing capacity under a $25.0 million unsecured federal funds line with a correspondent bank. Potential sources of liquidity also include unpledged investment securities in our available-for-sale securities portfolio with a carrying value of $2.8 million and our ability to sell loans in the secondary market.

Our non-certificate deposits have historically provided us with a long-term source of stable and relatively lower cost source of funding. However, we may be negatively impacted by unexpected deposit withdrawals from weakness in

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

the financial markets and industry-wide reductions in liquidity. Additional funding is available through the issuance of long-term debt or equity.

In the ordinary course of the Company’s operations, the Company has entered into certain contractual obligations and has made other commitments to make future payments. At June 30, 2023, we had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $152.0 million and unadvanced funds on loans of $859.0 million. Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature within one year from June 30, 2023 totaled $896.5 million. Management expects, based on historical experience, that a substantial portion of the maturing certificates of deposit will be renewed.

The Company believes that it will be able to meet its contractual obligations as they come due through the maintenance of adequate cash levels and liquidity. Other than normal changes in the ordinary course of business, there have been no significant changes in the types of contractual obligations or amounts due since December 31, 2022.

Our ability to maintain adequate levels of liquidity is dependent on our ability to continue to maintain a strong risk profile and capital base. The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements. At June 30, 2023, the Company and the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and were considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines. See Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation to GAAP

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, this Form 10-Q contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of the tangible-common-equity-to-tangible-assets ratio, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
