Forward-Looking Statements This presentation may contain “forward-looking statements” concerning the Corporation’s future economic, operating and financial performance. The words or phrases “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “look forward,” “should,” “would,” “believes,” “estimates” and similar expressions are meant to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the safe harbor created by such sections. The Corporation cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such “forward-looking statements,” which speak only as of the date made, and advises readers that various factors, including, but not limited to, the following could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by such forward-looking statements: the ability of the Puerto Rico government or any of its public corporations or other instrumentalities to repay its respective debt obligations, including the effect of recent payment defaults on the Puerto Rico government general obligations, bonds of the Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico and certain bonds of government public corporations, and recent and any future downgrades of the long-term and short-term debt ratings of the Puerto Rico government, which could exacerbate Puerto Rico’s adverse economic conditions and, in turn, further adversely impact the Corporation; uncertainty as to the ultimate outcomes of actions resulting from the enactment by the U.S. government of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA) to address Puerto Rico’s financial problems; uncertainty about whether the Corporation will be able to continue to fully comply with the written agreement dated June 3, 2010 that the Corporation entered into with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the “New York Fed”), that, among other things, requires the Corporation to serve as a source of strength to FirstBank and that, except with the consent generally of the New York Fed and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), prohibits the Corporation from paying dividends to stockholders or receiving dividends from FirstBank, making payments on trust preferred securities or subordinated debt and incurring, increasing or guaranteeing debt or repurchasing any capital securities and uncertainty whether such consent will be provided for future interest payments on the subordinated debt despite the consents that enabled the Corporation to pay all the accrued but deferred interest payments plus the interest for the second and third quarters of 2016 on the Corporation’s subordinated debentures associated with its trust preferred securities; a decrease in demand for the Corporation’s products and services and lower revenues and earnings because of the continued recession in Puerto Rico; uncertainty as to the availability of certain funding sources, such as retail brokered certificates of deposit (CDs); the Corporation’s reliance on brokered CDs to fund operations and provide liquidity; the risk of not being able to fulfill the Corporation’s cash obligations or resume paying dividends to the Corporation’s stockholders in the future due to the Corporation’s need to receive approval from the regulators to declare or pay any dividends and to take dividends or any other form of payment representing a reduction in capital from FirstBank or FirstBank’s failure to generate sufficient cash flow to make a dividend payment to the Corporation; the weakness of the real estate markets and of the consumer and commercial sectors and their impact on the credit quality of the Corporation’s loans and other assets, which have contributed and may continue to contribute to, among other things, high levels of non-performing assets, charge-offs and provisions for loan and lease losses and may subject the Corporation to further risk from loan defaults and foreclosures; the ability of FirstBank to realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets subject to the remaining valuation allowance; adverse changes in general economic conditions in Puerto Rico, the U.S., and the U.S. Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands, including the interest rate environment, market liquidity, housing absorption rates, real estate prices, and disruptions in the U.S. capital markets, which reduced interest margins and affected funding sources, has affected demand for all of the Corporation’s products and services and reduced the Corporation’s revenues and earnings, and the value of the Corporation’s assets, and may continue to have these effects; an adverse change in the Corporation’s ability to attract new clients and retain existing ones; the risk that additional portions of the unrealized losses in the Corporation’s investment portfolio are determined to be other-than-temporary, including additional impairments on the Puerto Rico government’s obligations; uncertainty about regulatory and legislative changes for financial services companies in Puerto Rico, the U.S., and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, which could affect the Corporation’s financial condition or performance and could cause the Corporation’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from prior results and anticipated or projected results; changes in the fiscal and monetary policies and regulations of the U.S. federal government and the Puerto Rico and other governments, including those determined by the Federal Reserve Board, the New York Fed, the FDIC, government-sponsored housing agencies, and regulators in Puerto Rico and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands; the risk of possible failure or circumvention of controls and procedures and the risk that the Corporation’s risk management policies may not be adequate; the risk that the FDIC may increase the deposit insurance premium and/or require special assessments to replenish its insurance fund, causing an additional increase in the Corporation’s non-interest expenses; the impact on the Corporation’s results of operations and financial condition of acquisitions and dispositions; a need to recognize impairments on the Corporation’s financial instruments, goodwill or other intangible assets relating to acquisitions; the risk that downgrades in the credit ratings of the Corporation’s long-term senior debt will adversely affect the Corporation’s ability to access necessary external funds; the impact on the Corporation’s businesses, business practices and results of operations of a potential higher interest rate environment; and general competitive factors and industry consolidation. The Corporation does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any “forward-looking statements” to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements, except as required by the federal securities laws. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are used when management believes they will be helpful to an understanding of the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the text or in the attached tables to this presentation. Any analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Puerto Rico Background and Update The Puerto Rico economy had historically trailed the US economy, however this was not the case during this past cycle. Nonetheless, the Puerto Rico economy continues to benefit from US economic activity trends Puerto Rico’s current recession has lasted longer than any prior cycle but several key milestones are approaching to address the challenges at hand Over the past few years the Puerto Rico banking system has right-sized, recapitalized, significantly de-risked balance sheets, and returned to profitability Opportunities for additional consolidation exist Compared to US peers’, FBP’s Tangible Book Value multiples are deeply discounted, providing potential investors with an attractive entry point on a profitable, strongly capitalized institution Source: Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico (Fiscal Year Numbers), Bureau of Labor Statistics, United States Census Bureau, Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Office of Planning Board 2015 Economic Report to the Governor. Potential Catalysts for Economic Stability in Puerto Rico Economic and Banking Backdrop With Puerto Rico facing an inability to service its $72 billion of public debt, in June 2016 US Congress passed the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (or PROMESA) PROMESA established an Oversight Board, composed of seven leaders and experts, to assist in solving Puerto Rico’s fiscal situation In addition, a separate economic taskforce was put in place and charged with developing pro-growth policies to build a stronger economy in Puerto Rico In July, Moody’s revised its outlook for Puerto Rico upward to developing The involvement of the US Congress and the recently approved PROMESA law are viewed as a turning point for improved fiscal governance, debt balancing and economic stability Puerto Rico financial equities and fixed-income recent valuation trends are reflecting a reduced level of economic uncertainty

Puerto Rico Government Exposure As of September 30, 2016, we had $325.9 million of direct exposure to the Puerto Rico Government, its municipalities and public corporations, compared to $336.5 million as of June 30, 2016. Available-for-sale investment portfolio outstanding principal of $65.6 million with a book value of $43.4 million net of other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) adjustments of $22.2 million. 59% of direct government exposure is to municipalities, which are supported by assigned property tax revenues.  In addition, there is $112.8 million of indirect exposure to the Tourism Development Fund supporting hotel projects, down $14.5 million in 3Q 2016 due to $13.7 million in charge-offs. As of September 30, 2016, the total allowance coverage ratio (allowance to the book value of loans) related to commercial loans extended to or guaranteed by the Puerto Rico Government (excluding municipalities) was approximately 16%.

Earnings Continue to Drive Significant Capital Formation Tangible Book Value per Share Capital Ratios (%) Published DFAST results in October; under the severely adverse scenario, stressed capital ratios are significantly above regulatory capital requirements DFAST Projected Stressed Capital Ratios (Severely Adverse Scenario through Q1 2018) (1) Source: First Bancorp 2016 Annual Company-Run Stress Test Results, Severely Adverse Scenario published October 24, 2016. The reduction in capital ratios was partially due to the implementation of Basel III requirements. For example, Tier-1 Risk-Based Capital ratio decreases by approximately 447 bps (from 16.92% in Q4-2015 to 12.45% in Q1-2018) under the severely adverse scenario. Of this 447 bps reduction, 167 bps are related to the implementation of Basel III rules. Common Equity Tier-1 calculated under Basel III is a non-GAAP measure.

Third Quarter 2016 Highlights Franchise Overview: Profitability Net income of $24.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to $22.0 million in 2Q 2016. Net interest income declined $2.0 million, due to lower loan volumes and prepayments on securities. Non-interest income increased $6.4 million, due largely to a $6.1 million gain on sale of securities. Expense control continues to be a focus, non-interest expense declined $1.2 million in 3Q 2016. Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income of $50.2 million, compared to $50.5 million for 2Q 2016. Asset Quality Total NPAs decreased by $12.2 million to $744 million in 3Q 2016. Non-performing loan inflows amounted to $50.4 million, a decrease of $27.6 million, compared to 2Q 2016. Provision for loan and lease losses of $21.5 million, remained relatively flat compared to 2Q 2016. Net charge-offs were $41.9 million in 3Q 2016, a $17.2 million increase compared to 2Q 2016. Core Deposits Deposits, net of government and brokered, increased by $35.3 million to $6.8 billion reflecting an increase in Puerto Rico core deposits by $44.7 million and a decline in our Florida and Virgin Island markets.

Slide 23

Key Highlights Net Interest Income ($ millions) GAAP NIM increased 5 basis points to 4.06%, due to the use of cash balances to repay maturing brokered CDs and repurchase agreements. Net interest income decreased $2.0 million in 3Q 2016. This decrease was mainly due to: A $1.7 million decrease in interest income on investment securities due to higher premium amortization resulting from the higher level of prepayments as well as the discontinuance of interest income recognition on previously classified PR Government bonds placed in non-performing status. A $1.1 million decline in interest income on loans, the net effect of a $49 million decline in average balance and an 8 basis point decrease in yield, offset by one extra day in the quarter. The reallocation of cash and money market balances to reduce brokered CDs and repos in the quarter improved net interest income by $0.9 million, the net effect of: A reduction of $1.5 million in interest expense on brokered CDs and repos, including benefits of reverse repos; Offset by a $0.6 million decline in interest income on money market investments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Basis of Presentation Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are used when management believes they will be helpful to an understanding of the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the text or in the attached tables to this presentation. Any analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Tangible Common Equity Ratio and Tangible Book Value per Common Share The tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures generally used by the financial community to evaluate capital adequacy. Tangible common equity is total equity less preferred equity, goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and other intangibles, such as the purchased credit card relationship intangible and the insurance customer relationship intangible. Tangible assets are total assets less goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and other intangibles, such as the purchased credit card relationship intangible and the insurance customer relationship intangible. Management and many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Accordingly, the Corporation believes that disclosures of these financial measures may be useful also to investors. Neither tangible common equity nor tangible assets, or the related measures should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders’ equity, total assets, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Corporation calculates its tangible common equity, tangible assets, and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

Adjusted Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income is a non-GAAP performance metric that management uses and believes that investors may find useful in analyzing underlying performance trends, particularly in times of economic stress. Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, as defined by management, represents net income (loss) excluding income tax expense (benefit), the provision for loan and lease losses, as well as certain items that management believes are not reflective of core operating performance or that are not expected to reoccur with any regularity or reoccur at uncertain times and amounts. This metric is income before income taxes adjusted to exclude the provision for loan and lease losses, gains or losses on sales of investment securities and impairments, and fair value adjustments on derivatives. In addition, from time to time, earnings are adjusted also for items that management believes are not reflective of core operating performance or that are not expected to reoccur with any regularity or reoccur at uncertain times and amounts.
