Exhibit 99.1

CAPE BANCORP, INC. REPORTS

FIRST QUARTER 2014 RESULTS

Cape May Court House, New Jersey, April 28, 2014—Cape Bancorp, Inc. (“Cape Bancorp” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: “CBNJ”), the parent company of Cape Bank (the “Bank”), announces its operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, Cape Bancorp reported net income of $2.0 million, or $0.18 per common and fully diluted share, compared to $1.5 million, or $0.12 per common and fully diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

On January 20, 2014, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per common share to shareholders of record as of the close of business February 3, 2014. The dividend was paid on February 17, 2014.

Michael D. Devlin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cape Bancorp and Cape Bank, provided the following statement:

“Cape Bank delivered solid performance in the first quarter, in line with management’s expectations. Net income of $2.0 million reflected good core earnings and the Bank’s best quarterly performance in a number of years. Two larger troubled credits were resolved in the first quarter, and credit quality was further enhanced as we successfully ushered some weaker (but performing) credits from the Bank.

“Performance metrics continued to improve with non-performing loans to total loans below 1.00% while non-performing assets to total assets dropped to 1.31%. The net interest margin was 3.71%, a decline from year-end, but a respectable level when compared to peers. The Bank’s efficiency ratio declined to its best level in a number of years, ending the quarter at 65.49%. Tangible book value increased to $9.95 and the Bank continued with stock repurchases in the quarter, although our higher trading range limited the amount of shares repurchased.

“The Bank has also been aggressively pursuing 2014’s strategic goals of growth in both loans and deposits. Several marketing initiatives were begun in the first quarter and initial results appear favorable. The Bank’s incentive plans underscore the importance of these topics.

“We feel that we are off to a good start and have signs of positive momentum for the year.”

Cape Bancorp’s total assets at March 31, 2014 totaled $1.091 billion, a decrease of $1.8 million from the December 31, 2013 level of $1.093 billion.

Total net loans decreased $7.6 million from $780.1 million at December 31, 2013 to $772.5 million at March 31, 2014 resulting from decreases in commercial loans totaling $3.5 million, residential mortgage loans totaling $2.6 million and consumer loans totaling $1.1 million. Commercial loan closings of $19.7 million during the quarter were more than offset by the following: transfer of

$5.3 million of classified commercial loans to loans held for sale; charge-offs and write-downs of loans transferred to loans held for sale totaling $2.0 million; normal amortizations; and, early payoffs (including the payoff of a $6.5 million classified loan relationship). The decline in residential mortgage loans reflects the effect of the Company exiting the residential mortgage loan origination business effective December 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses increased $406,000 and totaled 1.24% of gross loans at March 31, 2014, compared to 1.18% at December 31, 2013. At March 31, 2014, the allowance for loan losses totaled 125.62% of non-performing loans, compared to 127.05% at December 31, 2013 and 53.79% at March 31, 2013. The Company’s adversely classified asset ratio at March 31, 2014 was 18%, compared to 26% at December 31, 2013.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had $7.8 million in non-performing loans, or 0.99% of total gross loans compared to 0.93% of total gross loans at December 31, 2013 and 2.46% of total gross loans at March 31, 2013. Included in non-performing loans are troubled debt restructurings totaling $865,000 at March 31, 2014 and $881,000 at December 31, 2013.

Other real estate owned (“OREO”) decreased $919,000 from $7.4 million at December 31, 2013 to $6.5 million at March 31, 2014, and consisted at March 31, 2014 of eleven commercial properties and fifteen residential properties (including seven building lots). During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company added one residential property to OREO with an aggregate carrying value of $56,000. In addition, nine residential OREO properties with an aggregate carrying value totaling $885,000 were sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 with recognized net losses of $8,000. In addition, in the second quarter of 2014, the Company has sold two residential OREO properties, including one building lot, with an aggregate carrying value of $230,000 resulting in net gains totaling $85,000.

At March 31, 2014, Cape Bancorp’s core deposits totaled $517.7 million which represented a decrease of $8.7 million, or 1.66%, from the December 31, 2013 level of $526.4 million. Non-interest bearing deposits increased $776,000 and savings accounts increased $124,000, while interest-bearing checking accounts decreased $7.2 million and money market deposit accounts decreased $2.7 million. Certificates of deposit totaled $281.8 million, an increase of $12.6 million, or 4.68%, from the December 31, 2013 total of $269.2 million. At March 31, 2014, deposits totaled $802.0 million compared to $798.4 million at December 31, 2013, an increase of $3.6 million.

Cape Bancorp’s total equity increased $670,000 to $141.1 million at March 31, 2014 from $140.4 million at December 31, 2013 primarily resulting from a net increase of $1.3 million (earnings less dividends declared) in retained earnings and a decrease of $960,000 in the accumulated other comprehensive loss, partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease related to the Company’s stock repurchase program. Tangible equity to tangible assets increased to 11.07% at March 31, 2014 compared to 10.99% at December 31, 2013. At March 31, 2014, Cape Bank’s regulatory capital ratios for Tier I Leverage Ratio, Tier I Risk-Based Capital and Total Risk-Based Capital were 9.56%, 13.16% and 14.41%, respectively, all of which exceed well capitalized status.
