Bank of Hawaii Corporation

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Bank of Hawaii Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company providing a broad range of financial products and services to customers in Hawaii and the Pacific Islands (Guam, nearby islands and American Samoa).  The Company’s principal subsidiary is Bank of Hawaii (the “Bank”).  All 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 all 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 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004.

 

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.  Generally, stock-based employee compensation expense is not reflected in net income as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123”):

There were no significant changes from the previously reported $1.8 million in contributions expected to be paid during 2004.

 

The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the “Act”) was enacted on December 8, 2003.  The Act expands Medicare, primarily adding a prescription drug benefit for Medicare-eligible retirees starting in 2006.  The Company elected to defer recognizing the effects of the Act and intends to review its retiree health care strategy in light of the new Medicare provisions that may reduce the Company’s obligations in the plan.  Therefore, the retiree medical obligations and costs reported as of March 31, 2004 do not reflect the impact, if any, of this legislation.  FASB Staff Position 106-1 permits deferring the recognition of the new Medicare provisions due to pending authoritative guidance on the accounting for the Act.  The final accounting guidance could require changes to previously reported information.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains forward-looking statements concerning, among other things, the economic environment in the Company’s service area, the expected level of loan loss provisioning, the effect of our new three-year plan, and anticipated dividends, revenues and expenses during 2004 and beyond.  The Company believes 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 the Company’s 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 affect the Company’s credit markets and ability to maintain its net interest margin; 4) changes to the amount and timing of the Company’s proposed equity repurchases and repayment of maturing debt; 5) inability to achieve expected benefits of the Company’s business process changes due to adverse changes in implementation processes or costs, operational savings, or timing; 6) real or threatened acts of war or terrorist activity affecting business conditions; and 7) adverse weather and other natural conditions impacting the Company and its customers’ operations.  Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “targeted” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not exclusive means of identifying such statements.  The Company does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect later events or circumstances.

ANALYSIS OF STATEMENT OF INCOME

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis increased by $5.1 million, or 6%, for the first quarter of 2004 from the comparable period in 2003.  The increase in net interest income from the prior year was primarily a result of lower interest rates paid on deposits, in particular time deposits, and a reduction in long-term debt.  The lower interest expense was partially offset by the decline in interest earned on residential mortgage loans.  Lower residential mortgage interest rates resulted in a 12% decline in interest income notwithstanding a 3% increase in average balance.

 

Average earning assets in the first quarter of 2004 increased $442.0 million, or 5%, from the same period in 2003 primarily due to a $281.6 million increase in average loans outstanding and a $238.0 million increase in the investment securities portfolio.  In the first quarter of 2004, average interest bearing liabilities increased $341.2 million, or 5%, from 2003, largely due to an increase in interest bearing demand and savings deposits and short-term borrowings, particularly securities repurchase agreements.

 

10



 

The net interest margin was 4.30% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, a one basis point increase from the comparable period in 2003.  The slight improvement was a result of lower rate paid on time deposits and long-term debt, which lowered the Company’s cost of funds.  The five basis point decline in the net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared to the fourth quarter of 2003 is mainly attributable to declines in the yields on earning assets.  Although the average balance of earning assets increased by 5% and the related interest income increased by 3% from the fourth quarter of 2003, the average yield declined by seven basis points.  The lower yield on earning assets was partially offset by a three basis point decline in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.

 

Average balances, related income and expenses, and resulting yields and rates are presented in Table 2.  An analysis of changes in net interest income is presented in Table 3.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

 

No Provision for Loan and Lease Losses (the “Provision”) was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  This resulted in a reduction in the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (the “Allowance”) from December 31, 2003 equal to the amount of net charge-offs of $1.9 million.  For further information on Credit Quality, refer to the section on “Corporate Risk Profile.”

 

Non-Interest Income

 

Non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $4.1 million from the comparable period in 2003.

 

The 5% increase in trust and asset management income in the first quarter of 2004 from the same quarter of 2003 was primarily attributable to an increase in the average market value of assets under management.

 

Mortgage banking income increased in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the first quarter of 2003 primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in gains realized on sale of mortgage loans.  In the first quarter of 2003, originations were held in the portfolio rather than selling them in the secondary market.  Also contributing to the increase was the decline in amortization of servicing rights due to the reduction in prepayment volume.

 

Service charges on deposit accounts increased 11% in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same period last year.  The increase was largely due to higher account analysis fees resulting from lower offsetting earnings credits in the lower interest rate environment.  Overdraft fees also increased in 2004 mainly due to the increase in the number of deposit accounts.

 

Insurance income increased 18% from the same quarter of 2003 primarily due to higher commission and brokerage income from the Company’s commercial property, liability and casualty business.  The increase in commissions resulted from a higher customer retention rate and an increase in new accounts.

 

Other operating income for the first quarter of 2004 increased 8% from the first quarter of 2003 primarily due to a gain of $0.7 million from the sale of the Corporate Trust business.

 

Non-Interest Expense

 

Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2004 of $83.0 million declined 8% compared to the same period in 2003.  Included in this expense in the first quarter of 2003 were systems replacement costs of $7.4 million.  Excluding systems replacement costs, non-interest expense was $82.8 million in the first quarter of 2003.  Refer to Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the systems replacement project.

 

Salaries and benefits expense decreased $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the comparable period in 2003.  Base salaries decreased $1.3 million, or 5%, from 2003, largely due to a 7% decrease in the number of employees.  Partially offsetting the decrease in base salaries was an expense for restricted stock units awarded in the second half of 2003.

Net equipment expense declined $3.8 million, or 39%, in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 mainly due to reduced depreciation expense and software license fees resulting from the systems replacement project.

 

Other operating expense increased $4.7 million, or 28%, in the first quarter of 2004 from the same quarter in 2003.  This increase was due in part to the cost of outsourcing technology services, which was the end result of the systems replacement project.  In addition, in 2004 expenses were incurred for outside professional services relating to a review and improvement of the controls and the policies and procedures of the Company’s mutual funds.

 

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

 

Short-Term Earning Assets

 

Short-term earning assets, consisting of interest-bearing deposits and funds sold, totaled $734.9 million at March 31, 2004, compared to $154.7 million at December 31, 2003 and $332.1 million at March 31, 2003.  The increase related to a higher level of funding resulting from securities repurchase agreements by public entities and continued deposit growth.

 

Investment Securities

 

Investment securities were substantially unchanged from December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003.  At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 investment securities with a book value of $1.6 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively, were pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements.

 

Changes in interest rates influence the fair market values of certain investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities, which can result in temporary gross unrealized losses.  The gross unrealized loss on temporarily impaired investment securities that have been impaired for less than 12 months as of March 31, 2004 totaled $4.9 million, compared to $16.6 million at December 31, 2003.  The decrease in gross unrealized loss is primarily related to mortgage-backed securities which were impacted by the decrease in mortgage interest rates from December 31, 2003.  The Company has both the intent and ability to hold the securities for the time necessary to recover the amortized cost.  As of March 31, 2004, no investment security had been impaired for more than 12 months.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

As of March 31, 2004, the Company’s portfolio of residential loans serviced for third parties totaled $2.8 billion, a decrease of $0.1 billion and $0.7 billion from December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively.  The carrying value of mortgage servicing rights was $21.1 million at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $1.0 million and $4.7 million from December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively.  Although mortgage prepayments have slowed from 2003, the decline in the carrying value of mortgage servicing rights continues to be attributable to higher mortgage prepayments resulting from the low interest rate environment.  Recently, the prepayment speeds of Hawaii mortgages have been approximating national averages.

 

Deposits

 

As of March 31, 2004, deposits totaled $7.4 billion, a $31.1 million and $376.6 million increase from December 31, 2003, and March 31, 2003, respectively.  The Company’s deposit growth continues to be primarily in interest bearing demand and savings deposits, while higher cost time deposits have been reduced.

 

Average time deposits of $100,000 and greater were $607.5 million, $633.6 million and $751.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively.

 

Borrowings

 

Short-term borrowings, including securities sold under agreements to repurchase, funds purchased and other short-term borrowings, totaled $1.1 billion at March 31, 2004, compared to $0.6 billion at December 31, 2003 and $0.7 billion at March 31, 2003.  The increase in short-term borrowings reflected higher funding received for securities sold under agreements to repurchase by the Company’s public entity clients.  For additional information, refer to the section on “Corporate Risk Profile – Liquidity Management.”

 

Shareholders’ Equity

 

The Company’s capital position remains strong.  The 1% net reduction in capital from December 31, 2003 is attributable to the Company’s common stock repurchase programs and dividends offset by earnings for the first quarter of 2004.  A further discussion of the Company’s capital is included in the Corporate Risk Profile section of this report.

 

Guarantees

 

The Company’s standby letter of credit totaled $110.2 million as of March 31, 2004.

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.  Various techniques are used 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 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 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 2004 and 2003) by the segment’s allocated equity.  The Company assumes a cost of capital that is equal to a risk-free rate plus a risk premium of an equity investment in the Company.  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 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 recorded in the Retail Banking, Commercial Banking and Investment Services Group segments represents actual net charge-offs of these segments.  The Provision charged to the Treasury and Other Corporate segment primarily represents the change in the level of the Allowance and also includes recoveries from the divested businesses.

 

The financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 are discussed below and are presented in Table 8.

 

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 over 500 ATMs, e-Bankoh (on-line banking service) and a 24-hour telephone banking service.

 

The segment’s key financial measures remained relatively unchanged for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  The segment experienced higher non-interest income, primarily as a result of higher mortgage banking income, lower non-interest expense, and no systems replacement costs for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  These positive trends were offset by a decrease in net interest income and increases in the Provision.  The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the decrease in the earnings credit from funds transfer pricing on the segment’s deposit account balances, reflective of lower interest rates.  The increase in the Provision and economic provision were primarily due to growth in the segment’s automobile and installment loan portfolios.

 

18



 

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 serves customers through its 14 branches in the Pacific Islands.

 

The improvement in the segment’s financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 was a result of an increase in non-interest income, moderately offset by lower net interest income, and a decrease in non-interest expense.  The increase in non-interest income was due primarily to higher account analysis fees in the continued low rate environment and an increase in insurance income.  The decline in non-interest expense was primarily due to lower staffing levels, the realization of system conversion benefits and lower allocated expenses.  The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the decrease in the earnings credit from funds transfer pricing on the segment’s deposit account balances, reflective of continued lower interest rates.

 

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 segment is Bankoh Investment Services, Inc., a full service brokerage offering equities, mutual funds, life insurance and annuities.

 

The improvement in the segment’s financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily due to an increase in non-interest income.  This increase was attributable to a combination of an increase in trust and asset management fee income due to an improvement in market conditions and an increase in other operating income due to the sale of the corporate trust business.  The increase in non-interest expense for the first three months of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 was due primarily to increased professional fees, partially offset by no systems replacement costs.

 

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.  Results for this segment in 2003 include the systems replacement costs that were not incurred by or allocated to the Retail, Commercial and Investment Services Group segments.

 

19



 

The improvement in the segment’s financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and no systems replacement costs.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due to the low interest rate environment and its impact in reducing the cost of funding deposits by the Treasury unit.  The lower capital charge was due to the reduction of the Company’s excess capital as a result of the continuing share repurchase activity.

Cross-border outstandings are defined as foreign monetary assets that are payable to the Company in U.S. dollars or other non-local currencies, plus amounts payable in local currency but funded with U.S. dollars or other non-local currencies.  Cross-border outstandings include loans, acceptances, interest-bearing deposits with other banks, other interest-bearing investments and other monetary assets.

 Certain 2003 information has been reclassified to conform to 2004 presentation.

 

 

Because the U.S. dollar is used in the Pacific Island Division locations (Guam and American Samoa, which are U.S. territories and other nearby islands), these operations are not considered foreign for financial reporting purposes.

 

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 ratio of non-performing assets to total loans and foreclosed real estate was 0.49% at March 31, 2004, a decrease from 0.55% at December 31, 2003 and 0.79% at March 31, 2003.  As a percent of average loans outstanding for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, net charge-offs (annualized) were 0.13%, compared to 0.26% for the quarter ended December 31, 2003.

 

In Hawaii, the economy remains strong with a stable to upward trend in tourism, a strong real estate market and a construction industry that is expected to grow for the foreseeable future.  Hawaii continues to have low unemployment and positive job growth.

 

The Company’s more favorable credit risk position relative to a year ago reflects the portfolio strategy which shifted to industries believed to have a lower risk profile as well as reduced large borrower concentrations.  Portfolio monitoring is an ongoing process intended to result in early identification and disengagement from deteriorating credits.  In addition, overall risk in the Hawaii portfolio has been generally improving, primarily due to the expanding Hawaii economy.

 

21



 

Although the Company’s overall credit risk profile continues to improve, two components, air transportation and Guam, continue to carry higher risk characteristics.  Information about these components is summarized in Table 10.  The air transportation industry has recently experienced increased passenger travel, but continues to have a higher risk profile as domestic legacy carriers struggle with elevated cost structures, growing competition from low cost carriers that have reduced higher-margin business travel, potential global mergers and marketing alliances, rising fuel costs that are difficult to pass on to consumers, and a less certain geopolitical environment.  The Company’s exposure is characterized as improving based on specific borrower and industry analysis.  With a number of internal risk rating upgrades during the first quarter of 2004 centered in regional and international segments, 10% of the Company’s total air transportation outstandings were internally classified as of March 31, 2004, improving from 16% at December 31, 2003.

 

In the Guam portfolio, which is sensitive to tourism and military spending, economic uncertainty remains.  Internally classified exposure was reduced 38% from March 31, 2003 through active disengagement with negligible loss.  Targeted lending to select commercial borrowers is active, while the consumer lending business is leading the portfolio growth.  At March 31, 2004, Guam’s hotel industry portfolio of $15.7 million included one credit with $4.0 million exposure, or 25% of the portfolio, which was guaranteed by an offshore financial institution with limited exposure to tourism.

 

At March 31, 2004, the largest syndicated loan outstanding totaled $40.2 million to a local trust with an A+ bond rating while the second largest syndicated loan outstanding totaled $22.6 million to a prominent Hawaii based hotel operator.  The ten largest syndicated loans outstanding totaled $172.6 million, or 58%, of total syndicated loans, and consisted of loans in the real estate, hospitality and television cable industries.  One unfunded syndicated commitment, which had $5.5 million in exposure (less than 1% of total syndicated commitments), was internally classified.  The increase in syndicated exposure from December 31, 2003 primarily reflects lending activity to several Hawaii businesses partially offset by pay-offs of national credits.

 

The Company’s other large borrowers include six exposures of $25.0 million and greater.  The borrowers are major companies, most with Hawaii operations.  Three borrowers, with exposures totaling $111.0 million, have their loans collateralized by real estate and other assets, and are substantially funded.  The remaining three exposures are commercial paper backup lines to investment grade companies and are undrawn.

Non-Performing Assets

 

Non-performing assets (“NPAs”) consist of non-accrual loans and foreclosed real estate.  The net decrease of $3.9 million, or 12%, from December 31, 2003 included a $2.9 million loan pay-off in Guam and $1.7 million reduction in residential mortgage, primarily in Hawaii, due to return to accrual status.

 

At March 31, 2004, the ratio of non-performing assets to total loans and foreclosed real estate was 0.49%, a decrease from 0.55% at December 31, 2003 and 0.79% at March 31, 2003.  As of March 31, 2004, 55% of total NPAs were concentrated in commercial loans (27% in commercial mortgage) and 29% in residential mortgage related, relatively unchanged from December 31, 2003.  At March 31, 2003, the mix was concentrated 53% in commercial loans (41% in commercial mortgage) and 26% were in residential mortgage related.  NPAs in Guam as of March 31, 2004 were $9.5 million, a decrease of $3.2 million, or 25%, and $13.1 million, or 58%, from December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively.  The improvement from December 2003 is primarily due to the loan pay-off noted previously, while the improvement from March 2003 primarily reflects payments from a number of commercial borrowers.  As a percent of total NPAs, Guam exposure represented 34%, a decrease from 40% and 51% at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively.

 

Impaired loans at March 31, 2004 of $13.7 million decreased $2.3 million, or 14%, from $16.0 million at December 31, 2003.  These loans had a related Allowance that totaled $3.4 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $2.5 million from year end 2003.  Compared to March 31, 2003, impaired loans decreased by $21.3 million, or 61%, from $35.0 million and had a related Allowance of $3.2 million.

 

Loans Past Due 90 Days or More and Still Accruing Interest

 

Accruing loans past due 90 days or more were $3.3 million at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $0.2 million from December 31, 2003 and $0.9 million from March 31, 2003.  The change from December 31, 2003 reflects improvement in residential mortgages, offset by an increase in commercial mortgage loans where positive resolution is expected.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

 

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 March 31, 2004 of $127.2 million decreased $1.9 million and $12.8 million from December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively.  Due to continued improvements in the Company’s credit quality and management’s assessment of economic conditions and risks, no Provision was recorded during the first quarter of 2004 or the previous six quarters, resulting in a reduction of the Allowance equal to net charge-offs.  The ratio of the Allowance to total loans and leases outstanding was 2.23% at March 31, 2004, a decrease from 2.24% at December 31, 2003 and 2.52% at March 31, 2003.  A summary of the activity for the Allowance is presented in Table 12.

 

Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2004 were $1.9 million, or 0.13% (annualized), of total average loans compared to $2.8 million, or 0.21% (annualized), of total average loans in the first quarter of 2003.  The improvement in the current quarter was the result of higher recoveries than in 2003.  The low net charge-off rate reflects strong collections and resolutions of credits, resulting from the continuation of the Company’s risk management strategies and an improving Hawaii economy.

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 as a consequence of the normal course of conducting its business activities.  Financial products that expose the Company to market risk include investment securities, loans, deposits, debt and derivative financial instruments.  The Company’s market risk management process involves measuring, monitoring, controlling and managing 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 primarily executed on behalf of customers and at times for the Company’s own account.

 

The Company’s “other than trading” activities include normal business transactions that expose the Company’s balance sheet profile to varying degrees of market risk.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

The Company’s balance sheet is sensitive to changes in the general level of interest rates.  This interest rate risk arises 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.

 

Table 13 presents, as of March 31, 2004, December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, the estimate of the change in net interest income (the “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 $4.2 million increase 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.

In managing interest rate risk, the Company uses several approaches to modify its risk position.  Approaches that are used in an effort to shift balance sheet mix or alter the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities include changing product pricing strategies, modifying investment portfolio characteristics, or using financial derivative instruments.  The use of financial derivatives has been limited over the past several years.

 

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 (the “FHLB”), which provides an additional source of short and long-term funding.  Outstanding borrowings from the FHLB were $64.5 million at March 31, 2004, compared to $68.5 million at December 31, 2003 and $26.5 million at March 31, 2003.  The decrease from December 31, 2003 was mainly attributable to a $4.0 million maturity.

Additionally, the Bank maintains a $1 billion senior and subordinated bank note program.  Under this facility, the Bank may issue additional notes provided that the aggregate amount outstanding does not exceed $1 billion.  Subordinated notes outstanding under this bank note program totaled $124.7 million at March 31, 2004, December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003.

 

In the second and third quarters of 2004, $90.3 million of privately placed notes mature.  It is currently expected that repayment will come from liquidity, however the source of repayment will be determined at maturity.

 

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 March 31, 2004, shareholders’ equity totaled $785.8 million, a 1% net decrease from December 31, 2003.  The decrease in shareholders’ equity during the first three months of 2004 was primarily attributable to the Company’s repurchase of its common stock under the repurchase programs and dividends offset by earnings.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2004, 1.3 million shares of common stock were repurchased at an average cost of $44.77 per share, totaling $57.8 million.  As of March 31, 2004, the Company had repurchased a total of 31.1 million shares since July 2001, under all share repurchase programs, totaling $912.9 million at an average cost of $29.34 per share.  The Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional stock repurchase of up to $50 million of its common stock.  This authorization, combined with the Company’s previously announced authorizations of $1.0 billion, brings the total repurchase authority to $1,050 million.  Subsequent to March 31, 2004 through April 23, 2004, 984,800 shares were repurchased at an average cost of $43.92 per share for a total of $43.2 million resulting in remaining buyback authority under the existing repurchase programs of $93.9 million.

 

In April 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share on the Company’s outstanding shares.  The dividend will be payable on June 14, 2004 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 24, 2004.

Economic Outlook

 

During the first quarter of 2004, airline passenger arrivals in Hawaii increased 6% overall including a 9% gain in domestic travel, compared to the first quarter of 2003.  The strong yen is expected to further help the tourism-dependent sectors of the Hawaii economy.

 

Hawaii’s real personal income growth is most recently forecast at 3.5% for 2004 after adjusting for increasing inflation due to higher housing costs.  Hawaii construction should remain strong in 2004, based on 20% growth in the 2003 value of residential building permits, and a doubling in nonresidential building permits, combined with military housing construction.  Record high home prices continued rising during the first quarter of 2004 along with statewide home sales volumes.  Interest rate sensitivity is expected to be modest and strong fundamentals support the local housing valuation trends.  Currently, it is anticipated that interest rates will increase slightly in the latter part of 2004.

 

Tight labor market conditions in Hawaii persisted during the first quarter of 2004.  Statewide unemployment declined from 4.4% in the fourth quarter of 2003 to 3.9% in the first quarter of 2004.  Overall Hawaii job growth continued at around 2% through the first quarter, with the construction sector leading (up 7%) and the information sector lagging (down 9%).  External pressures that could constrain the economic growth in Hawaii include higher petroleum prices and a rising interest rate environment.

 

Earnings Outlook

 

Bank of Hawaii Corporation’s previously published earnings guidance of approximately $157 million in net income for the full year of 2004 remains unchanged, however gains from asset sales and loan loss recoveries could allow net income to exceed the $157 million level.  Based on current conditions, the Company does not expect to record a Provision in 2004.  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 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 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of March 31, 2004.  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 significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2004 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
