EXHIBIT 99.1

Eagle Bancorp, Inc. Announces Continued Growth and Record Earnings, With Assets Exceeding $5.7 Billion

BETHESDA, Md., July 22, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:EGBN), the parent company of EagleBank, today announced record quarterly net income of $20.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, a 62% increase over the $12.9 million net income ($13.5 million on an operating basis) for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased 62% to $20.8 million as compared to $12.8 million ($13.4 million on an operating basis) for the same period in 2014.

Net income per basic and diluted common share for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $0.62 and $0.61, respectively as compared to $0.49 per basic common share and $0.48 per diluted common share ($0.51 per basic common share and $0.50 per diluted common share on an operating basis) for the same period in 2014, a 27% increase per basic and diluted share (22% increase per basic common share and diluted common share on an operating basis).

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company's net income was $40.4 million, a 59% increase (55% on an operating basis) over the $25.4 million ($26.0 million on an operating basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net income available to common shareholders was $40.0 million ($1.24 per basic common share and $1.22 per diluted common share), as compared to $25.2 million ($25.7 million on an operating basis), $0.97 per basic common share and $0.95 per diluted common share ($0.99 per basic common share and $0.97 per diluted common share on an operating basis) for the same six month period in 2014, a 28% increase per basic and diluted share (25% per basic common share and 26% per diluted common share on an operating basis).

Operating earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, exclude merger related expenses of $576 thousand ($0.02 per basic and diluted shares) related to the merger (the "Merger") with Virginia Heritage Bank ("Virginia Heritage"). Where appropriate, parenthetical references refer to operating earnings. Reconciliations of GAAP earnings to operating earnings are contained in the footnotes to the financial highlights table.

"We are extremely pleased to report our twenty-sixth consecutive quarter of record earnings, highlighted by consistent and balanced financial results," noted Ronald D. Paul, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. The Company's quarterly earnings have increased for each quarter since the fourth quarter of 2008. The Company's performance in the second quarter of 2015 was again highlighted by growth in total loans and total deposits; by 39% growth in total revenue as compared to the same quarter in 2014 and by 2% growth in total revenue as compared to the first quarter of 2015; by a continuation of a favorable net interest margin, which was 4.33% for the second quarter of 2015; by continued solid asset quality measures and by further improvement in operating leverage from an already favorable position. For the second quarter in 2015, the efficiency ratio was 41.70%. The strong second quarter earnings resulted in an annualized return on average assets ("ROAA") of 1.51%, an annualized return on average common equity ("ROACE") of 12.18% and a Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of 10.37%.

For the second quarter of 2015, total loans grew 4.3% when adjusted for the classification of the indirect consumer loan portfolio as held for sale at June 30, 2015 as discussed below. Total loans grew 2.4% for the second quarter of 2015. For the second quarter of 2015, total deposits increased 5.3% over March 31, 2015. Growth in loans and deposits over the last twelve months was in part due to the Merger completed October 31, 2014 which added approximately $800 million in loans and $645 million in deposits. Excluding balances acquired in the Merger, and the reclassification of the indirect consumer loan portfolio noted above, organic loan and deposit growth over the last twelve months was 17% for loans and 24% for deposits.

In June, the Company entered into a contract to sell the indirect consumer loan portfolio acquired in the Merger, amounting to approximately $83.4 million at June 30, 2015. The sale of this non-strategic loan class will allow the Company to deploy the funds into commercial and commercial real estate loans, its core competency, improve its yield on earning assets and reduce operating expenses. The estimated loss has been included as an adjustment to the intangibles established in the Merger transaction. Closing of the transaction is expected in late July.

The net interest margin was 4.33% for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to 4.48% for the second quarter of 2014 and 4.41% for the first quarter of 2015. Mr. Paul added, "The margin compression experienced in the second quarter of 2015 was due to higher balance sheet liquidity which will be deployed over time into loans. The Company continues its emphasis on disciplined pricing for both new loans and funding sources. Both loan yields (5.29% versus 5.26%) and costs of funds (0.37% versus 0.38%) were improved in the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2015."

Total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) for the second quarter of 2015 was $63.8 million, or 39% above the $45.8 million of total revenue earned for the second quarter of 2014 and was 2% higher than the $62.5 million of revenue earned in the first quarter of 2015.

The primary driver of the Company's revenue growth for the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the second quarter of 2014 continues to be its net interest income growth of 37% ($57.6 million versus $42.0 million). Coupled with net interest income growth, noninterest income growth of 64% in the second quarter 2015 over the same period in 2014 ($6.2 million versus $3.8 million) contributed to total revenue growth and was due substantially to increased gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans. Strong activity in both purchase money and refinance transactions contributed to higher revenue.

For the second quarter of 2015, revenue from residential mortgage banking net interest income and fees represented 5% of total revenue as compared to 2% of total revenue for the second quarter of 2014. While the Company's primary focus continues to be on generating spread income, management also looks to residential mortgage banking as well as Small Business Administration ("SBA") loan activity as components of the Company's ongoing noninterest income growth opportunities. The mix of residential mortgage originations of $264 million was 40% purchase money and 60% refinance transactions for the second quarter of 2015. Sales of SBA guaranteed loans resulted in $247 thousand of gains on sales. The Company remains committed to growing the SBA business.

Asset quality measures remained solid at June 30, 2015. Net charge-offs (annualized) were 0.21% of average loans for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to 0.20% of average loans for the second quarter of 2014. At June 30, 2015, the Company's nonperforming loans amounted to $14.9 million (0.33% of total loans) as compared to $22.5 million (0.69% of total loans) at June 30, 2014 and $22.4 million (0.52% of total loans) at December 31, 2014. Nonperforming assets amounted to $25.6 million (0.44% of total assets) at June 30, 2015 compared to $31.3 million (0.80% of total assets) at June 30, 2014 and $35.7 million (0.68% of total assets) at December 31, 2014.

Management continues to remain attentive to any signs of deterioration in borrowers' financial conditions and is proactive in taking the appropriate steps to mitigate risk. Furthermore, the Company is diligent in placing loans on nonaccrual status and believes, based on its loan portfolio risk analysis, that its allowance for credit losses, at 1.07% of total loans (excluding loans held for sale) at June 30, 2015, is adequate to absorb potential credit losses within the loan portfolio at that date. The allowance for credit losses was 1.33% of total loans at June 30, 2014. The decline in the ratio of the allowance to total loans since June 30, 2014 was due primarily to loans acquired in the Merger being accounted for at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The allowance for credit losses represented 329% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2015, as compared to 194% at June 30, 2014 and 205% at December 31, 2014.

"The Company's operating cost management showed further improvement in the second quarter of 2015," noted Mr. Paul. The efficiency ratio of 41.70% reflects management's ongoing efforts to maintain superior operating leverage. The level of noninterest expenses as a percentage of average assets has declined to 1.91% in the second quarter of 2015 as compared to 2.30% in the second quarter of 2014. The Merger completed in the fourth quarter of 2014 has accelerated a trend of improvement in the Company's operating leverage. The in-market transaction allowed the Company to achieve significant cost savings beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014, which has carried into 2015. The Company's goal is to maximize operating performance without inhibiting growth or negatively impacting our ability to service our customers. Mr. Paul further noted, "We will maintain strict oversight of expenses, while providing for an infrastructure to remain competitive, support our growth initiatives and manage risk."

Total assets at June 30, 2015 were $5.75 billion, a 47% increase as compared to $3.91 billion at June 30, 2014, and a 10% increase as compared to $5.25 billion at December 31, 2014. Total loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $4.55 billion at June 30, 2015, a 39% increase as compared to $3.28 billion at June 30, 2014, and a 6% increase as compared to $4.31 billion at December 31, 2014. When adjusting for the classification of the indirect consumer loan portfolio to loans held for sale at June 30, 2015, loans grew 41% and 8% as compared to June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Loans held for sale amounted to $132.7 million at June 30, 2015 as compared to $35.4 million at June 30, 2014, a 275% increase, and $44.3 million at December 31, 2014, a 199% increase. Loans held for sale at June 30, 2015 include $49.3 million of residential mortgage loans and $83.4 million of indirect consumer loans. The investment portfolio totaled $423.7 million at June 30, 2015, a 12% increase from the $379.0 million balance at June 30, 2014. As compared to December 31, 2014, the investment portfolio at June 30, 2015 increased by $41 million or 11%.

Total deposits at June 30, 2015 were $4.83 billion compared to deposits of $3.37 billion at June 30, 2014, a 43% increase and $4.31 billion at December 31, 2014, a 12% increase. Total borrowed funds (excluding customer repurchase agreements) were $74.1 million at June 30, 2015 as compared to $39.3 million at June 30, 2014, an 88% increase, and $219.3 million at December 31, 2014, a 66% decrease. Included in long-term borrowings at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is the $70 million of ten-year noncallable 5.75% subordinated debt issued in August 2014. The subordinated debt qualifies as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes at the Company. The decline in borrowed funds in the first six months of 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014 was primarily the result of the payoff of all FHLB advances.

Total shareholders' equity at June 30, 2015 increased to $765.1 million, compared to shareholders' equity of $426.8 million at June 30, 2014, a 79% increase and $620.8 million at December 31, 2014, a 23% increase. The increases are primarily due to retained earnings, the public offering of common stock completed during the first quarter of 2015, which netted approximately $94.5 million, as well as the issuance of common stock to consummate the Merger. The ratio of common equity to total assets was 12.05% at June 30, 2015 as compared to 9.46% at June 30, 2014 and 10.46% at December 31, 2014. The Company's capital position remains substantially in excess of regulatory requirements for well capitalized status, with a total risk based capital ratio of 13.75% at June 30, 2015, as compared to 12.71% at June 30, 2014 and 12.97% at December 31, 2014. In addition, the tangible common equity ratio (tangible common equity to tangible assets) was 10.33% at June 30, 2015, compared to 9.38% at June 30, 2014 and 8.54% at December 31, 2014.

Analysis of the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to June 30, 2014

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company reported an annualized ROAA of 1.51% as compared to 1.35% (1.41% on an operating basis) for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The annualized ROACE for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was 12.18%, as compared to 14.09% (14.72% on an operating basis) for the three months ended June 30, 2014, the lower ROACE due to the higher average capital position.

Net interest income increased 37% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 over the same period in 2014 ($57.6 million versus $42.0 million), resulting from growth in average earning assets of 42%. The net interest margin was 4.33% as compared to 4.48% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The Company believes its net interest margin remains favorable compared to peer banking companies and that its disciplined approach to managing the loan portfolio yield to 5.29% for the second quarter in 2015 has been a significant factor in its overall profitability.

The provision for credit losses was $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The higher provisioning in the second quarter of 2015, as compared to the second quarter of 2014, is due to higher net charge-offs. Net charge-offs of $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2015 represented an annualized 0.21% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, as compared to $1.6 million or an annualized 0.20% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, in the second quarter of 2014. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2015 were attributable primarily to commercial and industrial loans.

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased to $6.2 million from $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, a 64% increase. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.1 million in gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans due to higher origination and sales volumes. Residential mortgage loans closed were $264 million for the second quarter of 2015 versus $131 million for the second quarter of 2014.

The efficiency ratio, which measures the ratio of noninterest expense to total revenue, was 41.70% for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to 48.30% (47.04% on an operating basis) for the second quarter of 2014. Noninterest expenses totaled $26.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $22.1 million ($21.6 million on an operating basis) for the three months ended June 30, 2014, a 20% increase (23% increase on an operating basis). Cost increases for salaries and benefits were $1.7 million, due primarily to increased staff from the Merger, merit increases, employee benefit expense increases and higher incentive compensation. Premises and equipment expenses were $965 thousand higher, due to costs of additional branches and office space acquired in the Merger and to increases in leasing costs. Marketing and advertising expense increased by $320 thousand primarily due to costs associated with digital and print advertising. Data processing expense increased $406 thousand primarily due to increased accounts and transaction volume primarily arising out of the Merger and to higher network expenses. Higher FDIC expenses were due to higher deposit levels. Other expenses increased $1.4 million primarily due to costs and valuations associated with other real estate owned, franchise tax and core deposit intangible amortization.

Analysis of the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to June 30, 2014

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company reported an annualized ROAA of 1.50% as compared to 1.35% (1.38% on an operating basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The annualized ROACE for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was 12.67%, as compared to 14.23% (14.56% on an operating basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2014, the lower ROACE due to the higher average capital position.

Net interest income increased 37% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 over the same period in 2014 ($112.3 million versus $82.0 million), resulting from growth in average earning assets of 40%. The net interest margin was 4.37% as compared to 4.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The Company believes its net interest margin remains favorable compared to peer banking companies and that its disciplined approach to managing the loan portfolio yield to 5.28% for the first six months in 2015 has been a significant factor in its overall profitability.

The provision for credit losses was $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The higher provisioning in the first six months of 2015, as compared to the first six months of 2014, is due to higher net charge-offs. Net charge-offs of $3.9 million in the first six months of 2015 represented an annualized 0.18% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, as compared to $2.4 million or an annualized 0.16% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, in the first six months of 2014. Net charge-offs in the first six months of 2015 were attributable primarily to commercial and industrial loans ($3.2 million), home equity and other consumer ($436 thousand), owner occupied-commercial real estate loans ($378 thousand) offset by a recovery in land development and construction loans ($106 thousand).

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased to $14.0 million from $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, a 70% increase. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $4.1 million in gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans due to higher origination and sales volumes and to gains realized on the sale of investment securities of $2.2 million. Residential mortgage loans closed were $549 million for the first six months of 2015 versus $226 million for the first six months of 2014. Investment gains were realized to take advantage of market conditions in February 2015. Net investment gains were $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $10 thousand for the same period in 2014. A $1.1 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt was recorded in March of 2015 due to the early payoff of FHLB advances. This decision was made in light of deposit growth in the quarter and expected benefits to the cost of funds going forward. Excluding investment securities gains and the loss on early extinguishment of debt, total noninterest income was $13.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $8.3 million for the same period in 2014, a 57% increase.

Noninterest expenses totaled $54.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $45.2 million ($44.7 million on an operating basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2014, a 21% increase (22% on an operating basis). Cost increases for salaries and benefits were $3.8 million, due primarily to increased staff from the Merger, merit increases, employee benefit expense increases and incentive compensation. Premises and equipment expenses were $1.9 million higher, due to costs of additional branches and office space acquired in the Merger and to increases in leasing costs. Marketing and advertising expense increased by $543 thousand primarily due to costs associated with digital and print advertising and sponsorships. Data processing expense increased $602 thousand primarily due to increased accounts and transaction volume primarily arising out of the Merger and to higher network expenses. Higher FDIC expenses were due to higher deposit levels. Merger related expenses were $137 thousand for the first six months of 2015. Other expenses increased $2.6 million primarily due to costs and valuations associated with other real estate owned, franchise tax and core deposit intangible amortization. For the first six months of 2015, the efficiency ratio was 43.28% as compared to 50.09% (49.45% on an operating basis) for the same period in 2014.

(1)   The reported figure for the six and three months ended June 30, 2014 includes the effect of $576 thousand of merger related expenses. As the magnitude of the merger expenses distorts the operational results of the Company, we present in the GAAP reconciliation below and in the accompanying text certain performance ratios excluding the effect of the merger expenses during the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2014. We believe this information is important to enable shareholders and other interested parties to assess the core operational performance of the Company.

(2)   Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio") and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. The Company considers this information important to shareholders as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk based ratios and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions. The table below provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.

(1) Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio") and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. The Company considers this information important to shareholders as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk based ratios and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions.
(2) Computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.            
(3) Excludes loans held for sale.
