  of $0.16

                     Business Fundamentals Remain Strong

                      Loan and Deposit Growth Continues

Business Wire

BROOKLINE, Mass. -- October 24, 2012

Brookline Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: BRKL) today reported net income of $11.4
million, or $0.16 fully diluted earnings per share (EPS), for the quarter
ended September 30, 2012. Net income for the nine months ended September 30,
2012 was $25.3 million, or $0.36 fully diluted EPS, compared to $20.5 million,
or $0.35 fully diluted EPS, for the first nine months of 2011.

Paul Perrault, President and Chief Executive Officer of Brookline Bancorp,
Inc., stated: “Our core business fundamentals remain strong, with continued
growth in loans and deposits in the third quarter. Net interest income has
benefited from that growth and I’m happy to report that provisions for loan
and lease losses have returned to normal levels. The second phase of our core
system conversion was successful and we are looking forward to moving into our
new headquarters over the weekend.”

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income for the third quarter 2012 increased $3.6 million to $46.4
million from $42.8 million in the second quarter of 2012 and $27.9 million in
the third quarter 2011 as a result of the acquisition of Bancorp Rhode Island.
An increase of $3.1 million in interest income on loans and leases accounts
for the majority of the $3.6 million increase, with an increase in investment
income accounting for another $0.4 million of the increase in net interest
income. Interest expense was flat for the third quarter 2012 as compared to
the second quarter. Included in interest income on loans and leases is $1.4
million of periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans as required under
GAAP. The remaining $1.7 million increase in interest income on loans and
leases is largely driven by growth in the lending portfolios. Net interest
income for the first nine months of 2012 increased to $132.8 million from
$81.7 million in the first nine months of 2011.

Net interest margin for the third quarter 2012 was 4.00 percent, up from 3.81
percent at June 30, 2012. The inclusion of the $1.4 million of yield
adjustments in income accounted for 14 basis points of the 19 basis-point
increase in net interest margin for the third quarter 2012. The normalized net
interest margin of 3.86 percent is up from 3.81 percent at June 30, 2012
largely as a result of Brookline Bancorp’s continuing efforts to maintain loan
yields in a persistently challenging interest-rate environment.

BALANCE SHEET

Total assets at September 30, 2012 grew to $5.1 billion, an annualized
increase of 7.2 percent from the prior quarter and 60.3 percent from September
30, 2011.

The loan and lease portfolio grew to $4.1 billion as of September 30, 2012, up
13.3 percent annualized from the prior quarter and 14.2 percent annualized
from December 31, 2011, after adjustment for the $1.1 billion in loans and
leases acquired from Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc., on January 1, 2012. The
Company continued to benefit from strong growth in its commercial real estate
and commercial loan and lease portfolios, which reached $2.8 billion, or 67.4
percent of total loans, at September 30, 2012. The commercial real estate and
commercial loan and lease portfolios increased 18.1 percent annualized during
the third quarter 2012 and 21.5 percent annualized for the first nine months
of 2012, after adjustment for the $0.8 billion in commercial real estate and
commercial loans and leases acquired from Bancorp Rhode Island, to $2.8
billion. These increases offset the annualized 4.7 percent decline from June
30, 2012 to September 30, 2012 in the indirect automobile portfolio, a decline
that reflected the Company’s selectiveness in the interest rates at which it
is willing to lend in a highly competitive market.

Deposits of $3.6 billion at September 30, 2012 were up 5.3 percent annualized
from June 30, 2012 and 63.7 percent from September 30, 2011. Core deposits,
which increased from 70.2 percent to 70.8 percent of deposits
quarter-to-quarter, increased 8.7 percent annualized in the third quarter
2012. Demand checking accounts grew at an annualized rate of 32.3 percent
during the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Total borrowings increased 17.2
percent on an annualized basis to $0.8 billion at September 30, 2012.

Cash and cash equivalents were $76.3 million as of September 30, 2012 as
compared to $217.1 million as of June 30, 2012, a decrease that reflects the
redeployment of cash to fund loan growth and security reinvestment efforts to
reduce further pre-payment risk. As a result, investment securities
available-for-sale of $466.8 million increased 21.4 percent from June 30, 2012
to September 30, 2012, with total investment securities at 10.6 percent of
total assets.

Stockholders’ equity to total assets was 11.97 percent at September 30, 2012.
The tangible stockholders' equity to tangible assets ratio remained relatively
constant at 9.08 percent at September 30, 2012 when compared with 9.07 percent
at June 30, 2012 and declined from 14.49 percent at September 30, 2011 as a
result of the Brookline Bancorp’s acquisition of Bancorp Rhode Island.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income was $3.8 million for the third quarter 2012, down $0.9
million from the second quarter 2012, in part, as a result of the Company
waiving certain deposit fees during the month of the core system conversion
and, in part, as a result of a reduction of late fee income on several large
loans that paid off during the quarter. Additionally, gains on sales of
investment securities in the third quarter decreased $0.8 million as compared
to the second quarter, which included $0.8 million of gains on sales of
investment securities in connection with a partial restructuring of the
investment portfolios. Non-interest income was $12.1 million for the first
nine months of 2012, up $8.5 million from the first nine months of 2011. The
growth in the first nine months of 2012 was primarily driven by $7.9 million
of non-interest income attributable to Bancorp Rhode Island.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE AND TAX PROVISION

Non-interest expense of $30.4 million in the third quarter 2012 increased $1.8
million from the second quarter 2012 and $13.4 million from the third quarter
2011. The increase from third quarter 2011 to third quarter 2012 reflects the
Company’s acquisition of Bancorp Rhode Island. Although compensation expense
increased $0.9 million in the third quarter 2012, it remained consistent with
compensation expense as reported in the first quarter 2012 despite business
and infrastructure growth. This increase in compensation quarter-to-quarter
was offset by a decrease of $0.6 million in professional services and a $0.3
million decline in FDIC insurance premiums quarter-to-quarter. Equipment and
data processing expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 increased
$0.4 million, largely as a result of software license termination fees. Other
non-interest expense increased $1.3 million on a linked quarter basis
reflecting operating expenses related to the Company’s continued migration to
standardized operating and financial reporting platforms.

The tax provision benefited, in part, from the inclusion of approximately $0.3
million in additional federal tax credits for the refurbishment of the
Company’s new headquarters.

ASSET QUALITY

Asset quality remains strong. Nonperforming loans and leases increased
slightly from $21.1 million at June 30, 2012 to $21.3 million at September 30,
2012. However, due to growth in the loan and lease portfolio, the ratio of
nonperforming loans to total loans and leases decreased slightly from 0.52
percent at June 30, 2012 to 0.51 percent at September 30, 2012. Nonperforming
assets at September 30, 2012 totaled $23.7 million or 0.47 percent of total
assets, down from $23.8 million, or 0.48 percent of total assets, at June 30,
2012.

The provision for loan and lease losses was $3.0 million for the third quarter
2012, down from $6.7 million in the second quarter 2012, and up from $0.9
million in the third quarter 2011. Net charge-offs for the third quarter 2012
were $1.5 million, or 0.15 percent of average loans and leases on an
annualized basis, compared to $3.7 million, or 0.37 percent of average loans
and leases, in the second quarter 2012, and $0.6 million, or 0.09 percent of
average loans and leases, for the third quarter 2011.

The allowance for loan and lease losses was $38.9 million at September 30,
2012, compared to $37.4 million at June 30, 2012 and $31.1 million at
September 30, 2011. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of
total originated and acquired loans and leases was 0.94 percent at September
30, 2012, compared to 0.93 percent at June 30, 2012 and 1.17 percent at
September 30, 2011. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of
originated loans and leases was 1.30 percent at September 30, 2012, as
compared to 1.33 percent at June 30, 2012.
