Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Bank of Hawaii Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company. The Company’s principal subsidiary is Bank of Hawaii (the “Bank”) which provides a broad range of financial products and services to customers in Hawaii and the Pacific Islands (Guam, nearby islands and American Samoa). Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003.
Recent Accounting Standards
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (“FIN 46”). FIN 46 provides a new framework for identifying a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and determining when a company should include assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interest and results of activities of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. FIN 46 was effective in the first quarter of 2003 for VIEs created after January 1, 2003 and is effective beginning in the third quarter of 2003 for VIEs created prior to the issuance of the interpretation. Management does not anticipate a material impact on the Company’s financial statements from the adoption of this new interpretation.
In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 149”) which is effective for hedging relationships entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. Management does not anticipate a material impact on the Company’s financial statements from the adoption of this pronouncement.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (“SFAS No. 150”). SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity in its statement of financial position. SFAS No. 150 becomes effective in the third quarter of 2003. Management does not anticipate a material impact on the Company’s financial statements from the adoption of this pronouncement.

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (“APB No. 25”) and related interpretations. As permitted by APB No. 25, stock-based employee compensation expense is generally not included in reported net income as options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Over the last several years, new accounting standards were developed that permit fair value expense recognition of employee stock options. Under current guidance which does not require fair value expense recognition, there are three methods available for transition to the new accounting standards—prospective, modified prospective and retroactive restatement. If the standards were adopted as of January 1, 2003, each transition method would have a different impact on the Company’s financial statements, including reductions in net income ranging from $1.5 million to $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had fully applied these new accounting standards:

Forward Looking Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements concerning, among other things, the likelihood of an increase in dividend, the expected level of loan loss provisioning, anticipated costs and annual savings of systems replacement project, anticipated revenues and expenses in 2003 and beyond, and the expected impact of changes to financial accounting standards. We believe the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and actual results may differ materially from those projected for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: 1) unanticipated changes in business and economic conditions, the competitive environment, fiscal and monetary policies, or legislation in Hawaii and the other markets the Company serves; 2) changes in credit quality or risk profile which may increase or decrease the required level of allowance for loan and lease losses; 3) changes in market interest rates that may deteriorate credit markets and ability to maintain net interest margin; 4) changes to the amount and timing of proposed equity repurchases; 5) inability to achieve expected benefits of technology outsourcing project and other business process changes due to adverse changes in implementation processes or costs, operational savings, or timing; 6) actions by the United States military and real or threatened terrorist activity affecting business conditions; and 7) adverse weather and other natural conditions impacting the Company and customers’ operations. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect later events or circumstances.

ANALYSIS OF STATEMENT OF INCOME
Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 declined $2.5 million, or 3%, and $6.4 million, or 3%, respectively, from the same periods in 2002. The declines in net interest income were mainly attributable to interest rates on mortgage loans and certain short-term investments that were at their lowest levels in several decades. In addition, average interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities declined 9% and 10%, respectively, for the six months ended 2003 from the same period last year. The decrease in average balances was primarily due to utilization of excess liquidity for stock repurchases and debt repayments. The Company’s net interest margin was 4.12% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, a 15 basis point increase from the comparable period a year ago. The net interest margin for the first six months of 2003 was 4.20%, a 25 basis point increase from the same period in 2002. The improvement in the net interest margin was largely due to lengthening the maturities of certain short-term investments, reduction in short-term borrowings and time deposits, as well as debt repurchases, which lowered the Company’s cost of funds. Presented in Table 2 are average balances, yields earned, and rates paid for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002. An analysis of changes in net interest income is presented in Table 3 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same prior year period.

Consistent with the previous three quarters, no Provision for Loan and Lease Losses (“Provision”) was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This resulted in a reduction in the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“Allowance”) equal to the amount of net charge-offs of $2.1 million for the second quarter and $4.9 million for the first six months of 2003. The Provision in the second quarter and first six months of 2002 was $3.3 million and $11.6 million, respectively. For further information on Credit Quality, refer to the section on “Corporate Risk Profile-Credit Risk”.
Non-interest income was $50.7 million and $ 95.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to $47.9 million and $100.9 million for the same periods of 2002.
The decline in trust and asset management income in the second quarter and first six months of 2003 from the same periods of 2002 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the market values of assets under administration and lower investment advisory fees on money market assets due to declining short-term interest rates.
Mortgage banking income was $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, mortgage banking income was $6.3 million compared to $10.8 million for the same period of 2002. During the first six months of 2003, mortgage interest rates declined to near record lows. As a result, mortgage loan activity was strong, with high levels of loan originations, but also high levels of loan prepayments. Because mortgage loan production was higher in 2003 than in 2002, sales of newly originated loans and related gains were also higher. Net servicing income was lower in 2003 compared to 2002 due to increased amortization of mortgage servicing rights resulting from the high level of prepayments. The decrease in mortgage banking income in the first half of 2003 from the prior year was attributable to a first quarter 2002 recovery in loan valuations that amounted to $4.4 million, following a market value adjustment made at December 31, 2001.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased by 8% in the first six months of 2003 compared to the same period last year largely attributable to an 11% increase in deposit balances from June 30, 2002 to June 30, 2003. In addition, overdraft fees increased from a new fee structure implemented in late 2002 and account analysis fees increased as a result of the lower interest rate environment.
Other operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 declined 13% from the same period in 2002 primarily due to decreased sales of annuities.
Non-interest expense was $95.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $89.4 million in the second quarter of 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, non-interest expense was $185.6 million compared to $180.8 million for the same period in 2002. Costs related to the Company’s information technology systems replacement project were the primary reasons for the increase in non-interest expense in 2003. These costs totaled $10.1 million and $17.5 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003. Restructuring and other related costs of $2.0 million were incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2002. Excluding these items, non-interest expense was $85.3 million and $168.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $89.4 million and $178.8 million for the same periods in 2002, a decrease in 2003 of $10.7 million on a year-to-date basis. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the systems replacement project.
14
Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased 2% for the first six months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 mainly due to a 3% decrease in the number of employees. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in compensation expense for the accelerated vesting of restricted stock, as a result of meeting certain stock performance thresholds.
Other operating expense decreased by $7.6 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 primarily due to a decline in expenses relating to professional services, sales and service training, legal services and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance.
Income Tax
Income tax expense decreased by $2.7 million or 8% for the first six months of 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. The effective tax rate was 34.5% which approximates the rate expected for the full year 2003.
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Short-Term Interest Earning Assets
Short-term interest-earning assets, consisting of interest-bearing deposits and funds sold, totaled $557.6 million at June 30, 2003, compared to $745.0 million and $1.5 billion at December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, respectively. The decline was mainly due to the use of funds to repurchase the Company’s stock and to reduce long-term debt.
Investments
The Company’s investment portfolio is managed in an effort to meet strategic asset/liability objectives, to provide both interest income and balance sheet liquidity and to collateralize customer deposits. Available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2003 were $2.1 billion, compared to $2.3 billion at December 31, 2002, and $1.8 billion at June 30, 2002. The 6% decrease from year-end 2002 is attributable to prepayments of investment securities. The proceeds were utilized to purchase investment securities which were designated as held to maturity. Securities held to maturity were $548.7 million at June 30, 2003, increasing from $229.7 million at December 31, 2002 and $312.5 million at June 30, 2002. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 investment securities with a book value of $1.2 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, were pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements.
Loans held for sale, primarily residential mortgage loans, totaled $71.9 million at June 30, 2003, a $31.8 million increase from December 31, 2002 and a $23.5 million increase from June 30, 2002. The increase from prior periods is due to the increased origination volume.
As of June 30, 2003, loans outstanding increased to $5.5 billion from $5.4 billion at year-end 2002 and at June 30, 2002. The increase from December 31, 2002 was attributable to increases in residential and commercial mortgages. Compared to June 30, 2002, the mix of loans has changed. The Company has increased consumer loans, including automobile, direct personal, and home equity loans. Commercial loans have declined due to reductions in syndicated and construction loans, offset by modest growth in commercial mortgages.

As of June 30, 2003, the Company’s portfolio of residential loans serviced for third parties totaled $3.3 billion, a decrease of $0.6 billion and $0.8 billion from December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, respectively. The carrying value of mortgage servicing rights amounted to $24.8 million at June 30, 2003, a decrease of $4.0 million and $5.4 million from December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, respectively. These decreases are attributable to the high level of mortgage prepayments that have resulted from the low interest rate environment in 2003. The Company did not incur an impairment charge related to mortgage servicing rights in the first half of 2003. The prepayment speed of Hawaii mortgages continues to be less than national speeds.
As of June 30, 2003, deposits totaled $7.1 billion, a $0.2 billion increase from December 31, 2002 and a $0.7 billion increase from June 30, 2002. The Company’s deposit growth has been in demand and savings deposits, while higher cost time deposits have been reduced.
Borrowings
Short-term borrowings, including securities sold under agreements to repurchase, funds purchased, and other short-term borrowings, totaled $0.8 billion at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2002. The reduction in short-term borrowings reflected the modest net funding needs of the Company. For further information, refer to the section on “Corporate Risk Profile—Liquidity Management”.
The Company’s capital position remains strong. A further discussion of the Company’s capital is included in the “Corporate Risk Profile—Capital Management” section of this report.
Guarantees
The Company’s standby letters of credit totaled $103.9 million as of June 30, 2003.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS
The Company’s business segments are defined as Retail Banking, Commercial Banking, Investment Services Group, and Treasury and Other Corporate. The management accounting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on the management structure of the Company and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial institution. This process uses various techniques to assign balance sheet and income statement amounts to the business segments, including allocations of overhead, the Provision and capital. This process is dynamic and requires certain allocations based on judgment and subjective factors. Unlike financial accounting, there is no comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management accounting that is equivalent to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The business segments are primarily managed with a focus on performance measures, including risk adjusted return on capital (“RAROC”) and net income after capital charge (“NIACC”). RAROC is the ratio of net income to risk-adjusted equity. Equity is allocated to each business segment based on an assessment of its inherent risk. NIACC is net income available to common shareholders less a charge for allocated capital. The cost of capital is determined by multiplying management’s estimate of the shareholder’s minimum required rate of return on capital invested (11% for 2003 and 12% for 2002) by the segment’s allocated equity. The Company assumes a cost of capital that is equal to the long-term government bond rate plus an additional level of return for the average risk premium of an equity investment adjusted for the Company’s market risk. The net interest income of the business segments reflects the results of a funds transfer pricing process that matches assets and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics and reflects the allocation of net interest income related to the Company’s overall asset and liability management activities on a proportionate basis. The Company is evaluating the credit assigned for the value of deposits and may reclassify such amounts in future reports. The basis for the allocation of net interest income is a function of management decisions and assumptions which are subject to change based on changes in current interest rate and market conditions. The Provision charged to the Treasury and Other Corporate segment represents changes in the level of the Allowance. The Provision recorded in the Retail Banking, Commercial Banking, and Investment Services Group segments represents actual net charge-offs of these segments.
The financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are discussed below and are presented in Table 6 and Table 6a, respectively. Segment information for 2002 has been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.
Retail Banking
The Company’s Retail Banking segment offers a broad range of financial products and services to consumers and small businesses. Loan and lease products include residential mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, automobile loans and leases, and installment loans. Deposit products include checking, savings and time deposit accounts. The Retail Banking segment also provides merchant services to its small business customers. Products and services from the Retail Banking segment are delivered to customers through 74 Hawaii branch locations and the largest network of bank ATMs in the State of Hawaii, e-bankoh (on-line banking service), and 24-hour telephone banking service.
18
Allocated net income for the Retail Banking segment increased by $9.5 million, or 67%, for the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002. This segment’s NIACC increased by $9.8 million to $17.0 million for the second quarter of 2003. RAROC increased from 26% for the second quarter of 2002 to 45% for the second quarter of 2003. The improvement in these financial measures was primarily due to increases in net interest income and non-interest income as well as a decrease in non-interest expense. These positive trends were partially offset by an increase in the Provision and systems replacement costs in the second quarter of 2003. The increase in net interest income for the Retail Banking segment was reflective of higher average loan and lease balances and lower deposit interest expense. Average loans and leases increased by $279.1 million, or 9%, compared to the second quarter of 2002 largely as a result of strong growth in the Retail Banking segment’s automobile, direct personal, and home equity portfolios augmented by a purchase of home equity loans at year end 2002. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to an increase in mortgage banking income, service charges, and fees. Non-interest expense decreased by $2.4 million, or 5%, primarily due to reductions in technology support and advertising costs.
Allocated net income for the Retail Banking segment increased by $12.6 million, or 42%, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2002. NIACC increased by $12.1 million to $29.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. RAROC increased from 29% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 to 41% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. The improvement in these financial measures was primarily due to an increase in net interest income as well as decreases in non-interest expense and the Provision, offset by a decrease in non-interest income and an increase in systems replacement costs in 2003. The increase in net interest income for the Retail Banking segment was primarily driven by higher average loan and lease balances and lower deposit interest expense. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to lower mortgage banking income for the first six months of 2003.
Commercial Banking
The Commercial Banking segment offers products including corporate banking and commercial real estate loans, lease financing, auto dealer financing, deposit and cash management products, and property and casualty insurance products. Lending, deposit and cash management services are offered to middle-market and large companies in Hawaii. Commercial real estate mortgages are focused on customers that include investors, developers and builders primarily domiciled in Hawaii. The Commercial Banking unit also includes customers in the Pacific Islands. As part of the initiatives for improving efficiency, the representative office in Tokyo will be closed in the third quarter of 2003.

The Commercial Banking segment’s allocated net income increased by $2.6 million or 26% in the second quarter of 2003 compared to the second quarter of 2002. NIACC increased by $2.7 million and RAROC increased from 16% in the second quarter of 2002 to 22% in the second quarter of 2003. This segment’s allocated net income increased by $7.1 million or 39% for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. NIACC increased by $6.7 million and RAROC increased from 15% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 23% in the six months ended June 30, 2003. The improvement in these financial measures was the result of an increase in net interest income and decreases in the Provision and non-interest expense. The increase in net-interest income reflected lower interest expense on deposits and increased interest income from real estate loans in the Pacific Islands and Commercial Real Estate businesses. The decline in the Provision was a result of improved credit quality of the loan portfolios in 2003. Total non-interest expense declined by $1.2 million, or 5%, in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002. Total non-interest expense declined by $3.4 million, or 7%, in the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. The decreases resulted from salary and other direct expense reductions, and savings from allocated expenses.
Investment Services Group
The Investment Services Group includes private banking, trust services, asset management, institutional investment advice, and retail brokerage. A significant portion of this segment’s income is derived from fees, which are generally based on the market values of assets under management. The private banking and personal trust group assists individuals and families in building and preserving their wealth by providing investment, credit, and trust expertise to high-net-worth individuals. The asset management group manages portfolios and creates investment products. Institutional sales and service offers investment advice to corporations, government entities, and foundations. Also included in the group is Bankoh Investment Services, Inc. a full service brokerage offering equities, mutual funds, and annuities.
Allocated net income for the Investment Services Group increased by $0.2 million, or 11%, in second quarter 2003 compared to second quarter 2002. This segment’s NIACC increased by $0.3 million to $0.1 million in second quarter 2003 compared to second quarter 2002 and RAROC increased from 10% in the second quarter 2002 to 12% in the second quarter 2003. The favorable trend in these financial measures was primarily due to a decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income. Net interest income increased $0.2 million, due to lower interest expense on deposits. The non-interest income decline of $1.9 million from second quarter 2002 to second quarter 2003 was due primarily to a decrease in trust and asset management fee income which resulted from declines in the value of assets under management and from decreased sales and fee income. The decrease in non-interest expense was mainly due to a decrease in outside service fees and commissions.
Allocated net income for Investment Services Group decreased by $0.6 million, or 14%, for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This segment’s NIACC decreased by $0.5 million to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and RAROC decreased from 16% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 14% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in these financial trends was mainly due to the decrease in non-interest income of $4.1 million, or 12%, a result of declines in the value of assets, shifts in product mix, and lower sales.
20
Treasury and Other Corporate
The primary income earning component of this segment is Treasury, which consists of corporate asset and liability management activities including interest rate risk management and foreign exchange business. This segment’s assets and liabilities (and related net interest income) consist of interest bearing deposits, investment securities, federal funds sold and purchased, government deposits, and short and long-term borrowings. The primary source of foreign exchange income relates to customer driven currency requests from merchants and island visitors. The net residual effect of transfer pricing of assets and liabilities is included in Treasury, along with eliminations of inter-company transactions.
This segment also includes divisions that provide a wide-range of support (Technology and Operations, Human Resources, Finance and Legal, and Risk Management) to the other income earning segments. Expenses incurred by these support units are charged to the business segments through an internal cost allocation process. This segment also includes charges like the system replacement project expenses that are not incurred by or allocated to the Retail, Commercial and Investment Services Group segments.
Allocated net income for Treasury and Other Corporate decreased by $13.3 million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. NIACC decreased $6.7 million to $(22.0) million from the second quarter of 2002 to the second quarter of 2003. The decrease in these measures was due to the decrease in net interest income and the recognition of systems replacement costs during the second quarter of 2003. The decrease in allocated net income was partially offset by a negative Provision in the second quarter of 2003, the result of reducing the Company’s Allowance. Net interest income decreased mostly due to lower yields on the investment portfolio and short-term investments. The lower capital charge from the second quarter of 2002 to the second quarter of 2003 is due to the reduction of the Company’s excess capital, and the related charge for this excess capital, as a result of the continuing share repurchase activity.
Allocated net income and NIACC decreased by $21.4 million and $10.0 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Lower yields on the investment portfolio and short-term investments along with system replacement costs contributed to the decrease in these measures year over year.
On a consolidated basis, the Company considers NIACC a measure of value creation. In the second quarter of 2003, consolidated NIACC was a positive $0.6 million, a result of improved financial performance and more efficient usage of capital.

CORPORATE RISK PROFILE
Credit Risk
Credit Risk is defined as the risk that borrowers or counterparties will not be able to repay their obligations to the Company. Credit exposures reflect legally binding commitments for loans, leases, banker’s acceptances, financial and standby letters of credit, and overnight overdrafts.
The Company’s asset quality continued to improve as evidenced by lower levels of internally criticized loans and non-performing assets, and a continued positive trend in the level of net charge-offs. The Company’s lower risk position relative to a year ago in the corporate portfolio reflects the execution of portfolio strategy to shift to lower risk industries as well as reduce large borrower concentrations, syndicated national credits, and exposure to certain industries. Management continues to monitor the portfolio in an effort to identify and disengage from deteriorating credits. In the Hawaii commercial portfolio, overall risk has been generally stable primarily due to the resiliency of the Hawaii economy. In the retail portfolios, enhanced credit management and collections have also produced lower net charge-off rates.
Although the Company’s credit risk profile continues to improve overall, two components, airline/aircraft and Guam, continue to carry higher risk characteristics. Information about these components is summarized in Table 8.
Risk in the airline industry, while recently showing less negative trends, continues to remain high as the industry struggles with elevated cost structures, reduced higher-margin business travel and less certain geopolitical environment. The risk of additional domestic and/or international airline bankruptcies may place further downward pressure on aircraft values and lease rents.
In the Guam portfolio, which is materially dependent on tourism and military spending, economic stress continues. The Guam hotel portfolio had $42.8 million in exposure at June 30, 2003 of which $31.0 million, or 72%, of that exposure was guaranteed by financial institutions or entities with limited exposure to tourism. The Guam hotel portfolio had a $25.0 million payoff in mid-July 2003, reducing this exposure to $17.8 million.
At June 30, 2003, the largest syndicated loan outstanding amounted to $28.0 million to a prominent Hawaii based hotel operator while the second largest was $26.6 million to a Hawaii shopping center operator. The ten largest syndicated loans outstanding totaled $165.9 million to the real estate, hospitality, and gaming industries. As of June 30, 2003, one unfunded syndicated commitment, which had $6.1 million in exposure (less than 1% of total syndicated commitments), was internally classified.

Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets (“NPAs”) were $42.0 million at June 30, 2003, a decline of $12.4 million, or 23%, from the end of 2002. The improvement in non-performing assets was largely the result of loans that were returned to accrual status or paid-off. These reductions were partially offset by the addition of one $7.6 million credit to a Hawaii based company in the second quarter of 2003.
Compared to the same quarter last year, non-performing assets decreased by $36.8 million, or 47%. Improvement from the prior year was largely due to payments, the return of loans to accrual status, and charge-offs. At June 30, 2003, the ratio of non-performing assets to total loans plus foreclosed assets and non-performing loans held for sale was 0.77%, down from 1.01% at December 31, 2002 and 1.45% at June 30, 2002.
NPAs in Guam were $15.5 million at June 30, 2003, a decline of $7.1 million from March 31, 2003 primarily due to the return to accrual status of a single borrower. As a percent of total NPAs, Guam loans represented 37%, a decrease from 51% in the prior quarter. The decrease in Guam’s concentration was due to lower Guam nonaccruals and the aforementioned addition in Hawaii.
Non-accrual loans were $32.7 million at June 30, 2003, down $12.3 million, or 27%, from $45.0 million at December 31, 2002, and by $28.9 million, or 47%, from $61.6 million at June 30, 2002. Non-accrual loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.60% at June 30, 2003, down from 0.84% at December 31, 2002 and down from 1.14% at June 30, 2002.
Foreclosed assets were $9.3 million at June 30, 2003, a decrease of $0.1 million from $9.4 million at December 31, 2002 and a decrease of $7.9 million from $17.2 million for the same period last year. The decline from the same period in the prior year was due primarily to the sale of the majority of the Company’s largest parcel of foreclosed real estate in the fourth quarter of 2002.
Impaired loans at June 30, 2003 of $26.2 million decreased $15.7 million, or 37%, from $41.9 million at December 31, 2002. These loans had a related Allowance that totaled $2.2 million at June 30, 2003, a decrease of $6.1 million from year end 2002. Compared to June 30, 2002, impaired loans decreased by $43.6 million, or 62%, from $69.8 million and had a related Allowance of $10.7 million.
Accruing loans past due 90 days or more were $2.9 million at June 30, 2003, an increase of $1.1 million from $1.8 million at December 31, 2002 and an increase of $1.4 million from $1.5 million at June 30, 2002. The increase for both periods was predominantly from residential real estate in Hawaii. Despite this increase in delinquencies, residential real estate net charge-off rates continue at their lowest levels in recent history.

The Company maintains an Allowance adequate to cover management’s estimate of probable credit losses inherent in its lending portfolios based on a comprehensive quarterly analysis of historical loss experience supplemented by judgmental expectations of portfolio performance and economic conditions as of a given balance sheet date.
The Allowance at June 30, 2003 of $138.0 million decreased from $142.9 million at December 31, 2002, and $159.0 million at June 30, 2002. The current quarter and year-over-year decreases reflected improvements in credit quality and the estimated impact of current economic conditions on portfolio performance. The ratio of the Allowance to total loans was 2.52% at June 30, 2003, a decrease from 2.67% at December 31, 2002 and 2.94% at June 30, 2002. A summary of the activity for the Allowance is presented in Table 10.
Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2003 were $2.1 million, or 0.15% (annualized), of total average loans compared to $3.3 million, or 0.24% (annualized), of total average loans in the second quarter of 2002. Charge-offs during the second quarter of 2003 totaled $5.7 million, partially offset by recoveries of $3.6 million. Net charge-offs for the first half of 2003 were $4.9 million, or 0.18% (annualized), of total average loans, a decrease from $11.6 million, or 0.42% (annualized), of total average loans in the comparable period last year. This improvement reflects management’s execution of portfolio strategies in an effort to shift to lower risk industries, reduce large borrower concentrations and syndicated national credits, and the resiliency of the Hawaii economy, as well as enhanced credit management and collection process in the retail portfolios.

Market Risk
Market risk is the potential of loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and prices. The Company is exposed to market risk in the normal course of conducting its business activities. The Company’s market risk management process involves measuring, monitoring and controlling risks that can significantly impact the Company’s financial position and operating results. In this management process, market risks are balanced with expected returns in an effort to enhance earnings performance and shareholder value, while limiting the volatility of each. The activities associated with these market risks are categorized into “trading” and “other than trading”.
The Company’s trading activities include foreign currency and foreign exchange contracts that expose the Company to a minor degree of foreign currency risk. These transactions are executed on behalf of customers and for the Company’s own account. The remaining exposure from foreign currency trading positions during the first half of 2003 was immaterial.
The Company’s “other than trading” activities include normal business transactions that expose the Company’s balance sheet to interest rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s balance sheet is sensitive to changes in the general level of interest rates arising primarily from the Company’s normal business activities of making loans and taking deposits. Many other factors also affect the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates, such as general economic and financial conditions, customer preferences, and historical pricing relationships and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States and its agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve System.
Table 11 presents, as of June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, the estimate of the change in net interest income (“NII”) that would result from a gradual 200 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates, moving in parallel fashion over the entire yield curve, over the next 12-month period, relative to the measured base case scenario for NII. The 200 basis point increase would equate to an average increase of $5.4 million in NII per quarter. The Company’s balance sheet continues to be asset-sensitive. The resulting estimated NII exposure is within the guidelines approved by the Company’s Asset Liability Management Committee.
Table 11
Market Risk Exposure to Interest Rate Changes (Unaudited)
Estimated Exposure as a Percent of Net Interest Income
Estimated Exposure to Net Interest Income per Quarter
In managing interest rate risk, the Company generally uses on-balance sheet transactions to manage its risk position. Approaches that are used to shift balance sheet mix or alter the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities include changing product pricing strategies and modifying investment portfolio strategies. The use of financial derivatives has been limited over the past several years.
31
Liquidity Management
Liquidity is managed in an effort to ensure that the Company has continuous access to sufficient, reasonably priced funding to conduct its business in a normal manner.
The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”), which is a source of short and long-term funding. Outstanding borrowings from the FHLB were $76.5 million at June 30, 2003, compared to $42.5 million at December 31, 2002 and $89.5 million at June 30, 2002. The increase from year-end 2002 was mainly attributable to a $50.0 million long-term advance, the proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of a $100.0 million long-term 6 7/8% subordinated debt that matured in June 2003. The advance is for a 7 year term and bears a 4% rate of interest.
Additionally, the Bank maintains a $1 billion senior and subordinated bank note program. Under this facility, the Bank may issue additional notes provided that at any time the aggregate amount outstanding does not exceed $1 billion. Subordinated notes outstanding under this bank note program totaled $125.0 million at June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002.
Capital Management
The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. The Company’s objective is to hold sufficient capital on a regulatory basis to exceed the minimum guidelines of a “well-capitalized” financial institution, while over the long term optimize shareholder value, support asset growth, reflect risks inherent in its markets, provide protection against unforeseen losses and comply with regulatory requirements.
At June 30, 2003, shareholders’ equity totaled $913.0 million, a 10% net decrease from December 31, 2002. The decrease in shareholders’ equity during the first half of 2003 was primarily attributable to the Company’s repurchase of its common stock under the repurchase programs, offset by earnings for the first half of 2003.
On July 25, 2003, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.19 per share on the Company’s outstanding shares. The dividend will be payable on September 15, 2003 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 22, 2003. The Company’s dividend level is currently under review and it is anticipated that an increase will be announced in the third quarter earning release.
During the six months ending June 30, 2003, 5.0 million shares of common stock were repurchased at an average cost of $31.72 per share, totaling $159.3 million. As of June 30, 2003, the Company had repurchased a total of 25.2 million shares since July 2001, under all share repurchase programs, totaling $687.2 million at an average cost of $27.31 per share. Subsequent to June 30, 2003 through July 25, 2003, 236,000 shares where repurchased at an average cost of $34.15 per share for a total of $8.1 million resulting in remaining buyback authority under the existing repurchase programs of $104.7 million.

Economic Outlook
Economic expansion continued in Hawaii during the second quarter 2003. Hawaii personal income during the first quarter 2003 increased 5.5% from the same 2002 period in nominal terms. Adjusted for inflation, Hawaii real personal income grew at a 3.5% compound annual rate during the eight quarters ending March 31, 2003. Hawaii seasonally-adjusted unemployment rose from 3.0% in February 2003 to 4.1% in June 2003, the same unemployment rate as June 2002. A resurgence of payroll employment growth after the Iraq conflict suggested that unemployment rates had only temporarily increased. Domestic travel which comprised more than 80% of passenger volumes, rose 4.8% during the second quarter 2003 from the same 2002 period. International travel to Hawaii fell to a level 30.8% below second quarter 2002 volumes. The resulting 3.8% decline in overall passenger volumes during the second quarter 2003 from the same 2002 period was reversed in July 2003 as Asian arrivals increased.
Earnings Outlook
The Company continues to believe that its previously published earnings guidance of $131 million in net income for the full year of 2003 remains realistic. Based on current conditions, the Company does not expect to record a Provision in 2003. However, the actual amount of the Provision depends on determinations of credit risk that are made near the end of each quarter. Earnings per share and return on equity projections continue to be dependent upon the terms and timing of share repurchases.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk
See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition-Market Risk.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2003. Based on this evaluation the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s 2003 second quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
