  • We urge investors to consider all of these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this document.
  • Introduction We are a bank holding company that, through our banking subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank, offers full service commercial banking primarily in the State of Hawaii.
  • We strive to provide exceptional customer service and products that meet our customers' needs.
  • Our products and services consist primarily of the following: • Loans : The Company's loan portfolio includes commercial and industrial loans, commercial mortgages, and construction loans to small and medium-sized businesses, professionals, and real estate investors, and developers.
  • The Company also offers residential mortgages, home equity loans, and consumer loans to individuals and homeowners.
  • Lending activities represent a core source of interest income, which is a key driver of our overall revenue.
  • The Company aims to maintain a strong and diversified loan portfolio, primarily in Hawaii, with selective diversification into U.S.
  • Mainland markets. • Deposits : The Company offers a comprehensive suite of deposit products and services including checking, savings and time deposit accounts, as well as cash management solutions, and digital banking capabilities.
  • The Company's extensive branch and ATM network across the State of Hawaii supports convenient access for its customers.
  • The interest paid on deposits is a key component of interest expense, which significantly influences overall earnings.
  • In addition, fees and service charges on deposit accounts, along with card interchange income contribute meaningfully to non-interest revenue. • Wealth Management : The Company offers non-deposit investment products, annuities, investment management, trust custody, estate planning, and financial advisory services.
  • Executive Overview We believe we delivered solid financial performance while managing and mitigating risks that arose in 2025. • We recorded net income of $77.5 million, or $2.86 per diluted common share in 2025, compared to $53.4 million, or $1.97 per diluted common share in 2024. • Results in 2025 were impacted by $1.5 million in pre-tax expenses related to the consolidation of the Company's former operations center into its main headquarters ("Operations Center Consolidation") in the third quarter of 2025.
  • Results in 2024 were impacted by a pre-tax loss on sales of investment securities of $9.9 million related to an investment securities portfolio repositioning ("Repositioning Loss") and pre-tax expenses related to our evaluation and assessment of a strategic opportunity of $3.1 million ("Strategic Expense"). • Excluding the impact of the Operations Center Consolidation, non-GAAP adjusted net income was $78.6 million, or $2.91 per diluted common share in 2025.
  • (See Tables 1-6 for reconciliations of the adjusted non-GAAP financial measures.) Excluding the impact of the Repositioning Loss and Strategic Expense, non-GAAP adjusted net income was $63.4 million, or $2.34 per diluted common share in 2024.
  • (See Tables 1-6 for reconciliations of the adjusted non-GAAP financial measures.) • We recorded return on average assets ("ROA") and return on average shareholders' equity ("ROE") ratios of 1.06% and 13.62%, respectively, in 2025, compared to ROA and ROE ratios of 0.72% and 10.25%, respectively, in 2024.
  • Excluding the impact of the Operations Center Consolidation in 2025 and Repositioning Loss and Strategic Expense in 2024, adjusted ROA and ROE ratios (non-GAAP) was 1.07% and 13.81%, respectively, in 2025, compared to adjusted ROA and ROE ratios (non-GAAP) of 0.86% and 12.10%, respectively, in 2024.
  • (See Table 3 - Adjusted Return on Average Assets and Adjusted Return on Average Shareholders' Equity for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP adjusted ROA and ROE.) • Asset quality remains strong as our nonperforming assets totaled $14.4 million, or 0.19% of total assets at December 31, 2025, compared to $11.0 million, or 0.15% of total assets at December 31, 2024. • Our loan portfolio declined by $43.8 million, or 0.8% in 2025, primarily due to run-off of our home equity loan portfolio of $76.9 million, consumer loan portfolio of $62.9 million, and residential mortgage loan portfolio of $53.3 million, partially offset by increases in our commercial mortgage loan portfolio of $93.8 million and our construction loan portfolio of $68.0 million. • Total deposits declined by $34.2 million, or 0.5% in 2025, primarily due to the run-off of high-cost time deposits greater than $250,000 of $53.5 million.
  • Our core deposit portfolio grew by $19.3 million, or 0.3%. • Our capital position and consistent profitability allowed us to pay cash dividends of $1.09 per share in 2025.
  • In addition, in 2025 we repurchased an aggregate of 788,261 shares of common stock under our share repurchase program at an aggregate cost of $23.3 million, or an average of $29.60 per share.
  • Business Environment Our operations are primarily concentrated in the State of Hawaii, making our performance highly sensitive to local economic, environmental, and industry-specific conditions, particularly those affecting broader macroeconomic trends, real estate, and tourism.
  • A favorable business climate in Hawaii is generally characterized by expanding gross state product, low unemployment, and rising personal income; while an unfavorable business climate reflects the opposite.
  • Labor Market and Economic Indicators The Department of Labor and Industrial Relations reported that Hawaii's seasonally adjusted annual unemployment rate was 2.2% in the month of December 2025, a decline from 3.0% in December 2024 and well below the national seasonally adjusted unemployment rate of 4.4%.
  • The State of Hawaii's Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism ("DBEDT") projects Hawaii's seasonally adjusted annual unemployment rate to average 3.0% in 2026.
  • DBEDT estimates that real personal income grew by approximately 1.7% in 2025, while real gross state product grew by approximately 1.6% for 2025.
  • DBEDT projects real personal income to grow by 1.6% and real gross state product to grow by 1.5% for 2026.
  • According to the University of Hawaii Economic Research Organization ("UHERO") December 2025 forecast, Hawaii is expected to be impacted by weakening U.S. and global conditions, declining tourism, particularly from international markets, and stalled job growth.
  • Inflation is anticipated to rise due to tariff impacts, while construction remains the primary source of economic strength.
  • Real personal income and real gross state product is forecast to remain flat in 2026.
  • These projections assume continued high tariffs, federal spending cuts, and no immediate U.S. recession, though downside risks remain elevated due to policy uncertainty and global economic fragility.
  • Real Estate Market Real estate lending, particularly residential mortgage and commercial mortgage loans, is a core focus of the Company.
  • Consequently, our performance is closely tied to the health of Hawaii's real estate market.
  • Despite mixed results, Hawaii's housing market remained resilient in 2025.
  • According to the Honolulu Board of Realtors, the median price for a single-family home on Oahu was $1,139,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing an increase of 3.5% from the median resale price of $1,100,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
  • The median resale price for condominiums on Oahu was $507,250 for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing a decrease of 1.5% from the median resale price of $515,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
  • Oahu unit sales volume increased by 3.5% for single-family homes, and decreased by 1.1% for condominiums in 2025 from 2024.
  • If the residential and commercial real estate markets we have exposure to deteriorate, our results of operations could be negatively impacted.
  • See the "Overview of Results of Operations—Concentrations of Credit Risk" section for a further discussion on how a deteriorating real estate market, combined with the concentration risk within our portfolio, could have a significant negative impact on our asset quality and credit losses.
  • Tourism Trends In 2025, Hawaii’s tourism industry continued its post‑pandemic recalibration, with visitor volumes stabilizing while visitor spending increased.
  • According to the Hawaii Tourism Authority ("HTA"), total visitor arrivals declined modestly to approximately 9.6 million in 2025, down 0.6% from the 9.7 million visitors in 2024, reflecting softening demand in certain international markets and capacity constraints, particularly on Oahu.
  • Despite the modest decline in arrivals, overall visitor demand remained resilient, led primarily by the U.S.
