PART I.   FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
Forward-Looking Statements and Factors that Could Affect Future Results
 
This document may contain forward-looking statements concerning: projections of revenues, expenses, income or loss, earnings or loss per share, capital expenditures, the payment or nonpayment of dividends, capital position, net interest margin or other financial items; statements of plans, objectives and expectations of Central Pacific Financial Corp. or its management or Board of Directors, including those relating to business plans, use of capital resources, products or services and regulatory developments and regulatory actions; statements of future economic performance including anticipated performance results from our RISE2020 initiative; or any statements of the assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, and may include the words "believes," "plans," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "forecasts," "hopes," "targeting," "continue," "remain," "will," "should," "estimates," "may" or words of similar meaning.

While we believe that our forward-looking statements and the assumptions underlying them are reasonably based, such statements and assumptions are by their nature subject to risks and uncertainties, and thus could later prove to be inaccurate or incorrect. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those statements or projections for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: adverse changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers and, as a result, increased loan delinquency rates, deterioration in asset quality, and losses in our loan portfolio; our ability to successfully implement our RISE2020 initiative; the impact of local, national, and international economies and events (including natural disasters such as wildfires, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, tsunamis, storms and earthquakes) on the Company's business and operations and on tourism, the military, and other major industries operating within the Hawaii market and any other markets in which the Company does business; deterioration or malaise in domestic economic conditions, including any destabilization in the financial industry and deterioration of the real estate market, as well as the impact of declining levels of consumer and business confidence in the state of the economy in general and in financial institutions in particular; changes in estimates of future reserve requirements based upon the periodic review thereof under relevant regulatory and accounting requirements; the impact of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, changes in capital standards, other regulatory reform, including but not limited to regulations promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, government-sponsored enterprise reform, and any related rules and regulations on our business operations and competitiveness; the costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments, including the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory or other governmental inquiries and proceedings and the resolution thereof, the results of regulatory examinations or reviews and the effect of, and our ability to comply with, any regulatory orders or actions we are or may become subject to; ability to successfully implement our initiatives to lower our efficiency ratio; the effects of and changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; inflation, interest rate, securities market and monetary fluctuations, including the anticipated replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate Index and the impact on our loans and debt which are tied to that index; negative trends in our market capitalization and adverse changes in the price of the Company's common stock; political instability; acts of war or terrorism; changes in consumer spending, borrowings and savings habits; failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures; the ability to address any material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures; technological changes and developments; changes in the competitive environment among financial holding companies and other financial service providers; the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other accounting standard setters and the cost and resources required to implement such changes; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans; and our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items.

For further information with respect to factors that could cause actual results to materially differ from the expectations or projections stated in the forward-looking statements, please see the Company's publicly available Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including the Company's Form 10-K for the last fiscal year and, in particular, the discussion of "Risk Factors" set forth therein. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by law.

CENTRAL PACIFIC FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Central Pacific Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries (herein referred to as the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been made and include all normal recurring adjustments. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In December 2015, we acquired a 50% ownership interest in a mortgage loan origination and brokerage company, One Hawaii HomeLoans, LLC. The bank concluded that the investment meets the consolidation requirements under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810, "Consolidation." The bank concluded that the entity meets the definition of a variable interest entity and that we are the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity. Accordingly, the investment was consolidated into our financial statements. One Hawaii HomeLoans, LLC was terminated in 2017, and final payment of taxes and distributions to members was made in March 2018.

We have 50% ownership interests in three other mortgage loan origination and brokerage companies which are accounted for using the equity method and are included in investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries: Gentry HomeLoans, LLC, Haseko HomeLoans, LLC and Island Pacific HomeLoans, LLC. We also had 50% ownership interest in one additional mortgage loan origination and brokerage company, Pacific Access Mortgage, LLC, which was also accounted for using the equity method and was included in investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries. Pacific Access Mortgage, LLC was terminated in 2017, and final payment of taxes and distributions to members was made in March 2018.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, we voluntarily changed our accounting policy for investments in low income housing tax credit ("LIHTC") partnerships from the cost method to the proportional amortization method using the practical expedient available under ASC 323, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures", which permits an investor to amortize the initial cost of the investment in proportion to only the tax credits allocated to the investor. We believe the proportional amortization method is preferable because it better reflects the economics of an investment that is made for the primary purpose of receiving tax credits and other tax benefits. In addition to a change in the timing of the recognition of amortization expense on LIHTC investments, amortization expense on LIHTC investments is now reflected in the income tax expense line, which provides users a better understanding of the nature of the returns of such investments, instead of in other operating expenses on the consolidated statements of income. The change did not impact net income, the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statements of cash flows.

We also have non-controlling equity investments in affiliates that are accounted for under the cost method and are included in investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries.

Our investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries accounted for under the equity, proportional amortization and cost methods were $0.2 million, $15.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively, at June 30, 2019 and $0.2 million, $11.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018. Our policy for determining impairment of these investments includes an evaluation of whether a loss in value of an investment is other than temporary. Evidence of a loss in value includes absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or the inability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity which would justify the carrying amount of the investment. We perform impairment tests whenever indicators of impairment are

9

 

present. If the value of an investment declines and it is considered other than temporary, the investment is written down to its respective fair value in the period in which this determination is made.

The Company sponsors the Central Pacific Bank Foundation, which is not consolidated in the Company's financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2019 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the Company's reported net income or shareholders' equity.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2019

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The ASU establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU lease asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term of longer than 12 months. The FASB has also made available several practical expedients to assist entities with the adoption of ASU 2016-02. Among other things, these practical expedients require no reassessment of whether existing contracts are or contain leases as well as no reassessment of lease classification for current leases. In July 2018, the FASB released ASU 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements," which adds an additional practical expedient that allows entities to elect not to recast comparative periods presented when transitioning to Topic 842. The Company elected to adopt the practical expedient allowed under ASU 2018-11. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company engaged a software vendor to assist in the implementation of ASU 2016-02. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach and recorded a ROU lease asset and corresponding lease liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheet of $55.9 million for its operating leases where it is a lessee. There was no impact to the Company's financial statements for its leases where it is a lessor. As of June 30, 2019, the ROU lease asset and lease liability was $53.7 million and $53.8 million, respectively. See Note 12 - Leases for required disclosures on this new standard.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities." ASU 2017-12 was issued to better align an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. The FASB believes that such amendments will: 1) improve the transparency of information about an entity’s risk management activities and 2) simplify the application of hedge accounting. The ASU allows an entity that qualifies for the last-of-layer method a one-time opportunity to reclassify securities from the held-to-maturity category to the available-for-sale category. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 effective January 1, 2019 and transferred its entire held-to-maturity investment securities portfolio with a fair value of $144.3 million at January 1, 2019 to the available-for-sale portfolio. On the date of adoption, the Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment related to the unrealized loss on the investment securities transferred, which decreased available-for-sale investments by $4.2 million, increased deferred tax assets by $1.1 million, and decreased opening accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") by $3.1 million. The ASU did not have a material impact on our current derivative activities.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract," which requires an entity in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. Capitalized implementation costs should be presented in the same line item on the balance sheet as amounts prepaid for the hosted service, if any (generally as an “other asset”). The capitalized costs will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, with the amortization expense being presented in the same income statement line item as the fees paid for the hosted service. ASU 2018-15 is effective for the Company's reporting period beginning January 1, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted ASU 2018-15 during the second quarter of 2019. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Impact of Other Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements on Future Filings

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," and subsequent amendments to the guidance, ASU 2019-04 in April 2019 and ASU 2019-05 in May 2019. The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. In issuing the standard, the FASB is responding to criticism that today’s “incurred loss” guidance delays the recognition of credit losses on loans, leases, held-to-maturity debt securities, loan commitments, and financial guarantees, and instead provides for a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) approach to determine the allowance for credit losses. CECL requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. In addition, this guidance modifies the accounting treatment for other-than-temporary impairment for available-for-sale debt securities. Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation methods are appropriate for their circumstances. This guidance requires entities to record a cumulative effect adjustment to the consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. However, an organization may elect to phase in the regulatory capital impact over a three-year transition period if adoption of the new standard results in a reduction of retained earnings. This update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with earlier adoption permitted. As such, the Company will implement CECL for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2020. The new guidance will require significant operational changes, particularly in existing processes, data collection and analysis.

The Company has formed a steering committee that is responsible for oversight of the Company’s implementation strategy for compliance with provisions of the new standard. The Company has also established a project management governance process to manage the implementation across affected disciplines. To date, the Company has established appropriate loan pools by segment and sub-segment, developed internal loss driver models, and has leveraged a third-party software solution to measure expected losses under CECL. As part of this process, the Company has also engaged an additional third party specializing in economic forecasting to enable it to incorporate reasonable and supportable forecasts in its process. Finally, the Company is developing internal controls around all applicable components, including data, calculations and implementation. Later in the year, the Company plans to generate and evaluate model scenarios under CECL in tandem with its current reserving processes for select interim reporting periods in 2019. While the Company is evaluating the full impact of adopting this new guidance, management expects that it will be significantly influenced by its own historical experience, the composition and quality of the Company’s loans, as well as economic condition expectations as of the date of adoption. The Company also anticipates significant changes to its reserve calculation processes and procedures and continues to evaluate the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The ASU is part of the FASB's disclosure framework project to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements by facilitating clear communication of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles. The ASU modifies disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820 and is effective for the Company's reporting period beginning January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. Based on preliminary evaluation, the ASU will not have a material impact on disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, "Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans." Like ASU 2018-13, this ASU is part of the FASB's disclosure framework project. This ASU modifies disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. The ASU is effective for the Company's reporting period beginning January 1, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. Based on preliminary evaluation, the ASU will not have a material impact on disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

Visa and MasterCard Class B Common Stock

As of June 30, 2019, the Company owns 34,631 shares of Class B common stock of Visa, Inc. ("Visa"). These shares were received in 2008 as part of Visa's initial public offering ("IPO"). These shares are transferable only under limited circumstances until they can be converted into shares of the publicly traded Class A common stock. This conversion will not occur until the resolution of certain litigation, which is indemnified by Visa members. Since its IPO, Visa has funded a litigation reserve to settle these litigation claims. At its discretion, Visa may continue to increase the litigation reserve based upon a change in the conversion ratio of each member bank’s restricted Class B common stock to unrestricted Class A common stock. Due to the existing transfer restriction and the uncertainty of the outcome of the Visa litigation, the Company has determined that the Visa Class B common stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and chooses to carry the shares on the Company's consolidated balance sheets at zero cost basis.

During the first quarter of 2019, the Company converted the 11,170 shares of Class B common stock of MasterCard, Inc. ("MasterCard") it received during their initial public offering to an equal number of Class A common stock and sold the shares for $2.6 million. The shares were carried on the Company's consolidated balance sheets at zero cost basis and the proceeds received were recorded as a gain in other operating income - other in the Company's consolidated statements of income. The Company no longer owns any shares of MasterCard Class B common stock.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the amount of interest income recognized on impaired loans within the period that the loans were impaired were primarily related to loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") that were on accrual status. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the amount of interest income recognized using a cash-based method of accounting during the period that the loans were impaired was not material.
 
Foreclosure Proceedings

The Company had $0.5 million and $0.7 million of residential mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that were in the process of foreclosure at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Modifications

Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") included in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2019 consisted of three Hawaii residential mortgage loans with a combined principal balance of $0.4 million.

Concessions made to the original contractual terms of these loans consisted primarily of the deferral of interest and/or principal payments due to deterioration in the borrowers' financial condition. The principal balances on these TDRs had matured and/or were in default at the time of restructure, and we have no commitments to lend additional funds to any of these borrowers. There were $9.1 million of TDRs still accruing interest at June 30, 2019, none of which were more than 90 days delinquent. At December 31, 2018, there were $12.9 million of TDRs still accruing interest, none of which were more than 90 days delinquent.
 
Some loans modified in a TDR may already be on nonaccrual status and partial charge-offs may have already been taken against the outstanding loan balance. Thus, these loans have already been identified as impaired and have already been evaluated under the Company's allowance for loan and lease losses (the "Allowance") methodology. Loans that were not on nonaccrual status when modified in a TDR may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. The loans modified in a TDR did not have a material effect on our provision for loan and lease losses (the "Provision") and the Allowance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.


17

 

No loans were modified in a TDR during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

No loans were modified as a TDR within the previous twelve months that subsequently defaulted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

We had no commitments on TDRs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
 
Credit Quality Indicators
 
The Company categorizes loans and leases into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans and leases individually by classifying the loans and leases by credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogeneous loans and leases, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
 
Special Mention. Loans and leases classified as special mention, while still adequately protected by the borrower's capital adequacy and payment capability, exhibit distinct weakening trends and/or elevated levels of exposure to external conditions. If left unchecked or uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deteriorated prospects of repayment. These exposures require management's close attention so as to avoid becoming undue or unwarranted credit exposures.
 
Substandard. Loans and leases classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the borrower's current financial condition and payment capability or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans and leases so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly repayment of debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
 
Doubtful. Loans and leases classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or orderly repayment in full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the exposure, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
 
Loss. Loans and leases classified as loss are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future. Losses are taken in the period in which they surface as uncollectible.

Loans and leases not meeting the criteria above are considered to be pass-rated. The following table presents by class and credit indicator, the recorded investment in the Company's loans and leases as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Prior to 2018, the Company's investments in LIHTC partnerships were accounted for using the cost method. In 2018, the Company voluntarily changed its accounting policy for LIHTC partnerships from the cost method to the proportional amortization method using the practical expedient available under ASC 323, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures", which permits an investor to amortize the initial cost of the investment in proportion to only the tax credits allocated to the investor. The Company believes the proportional amortization method is preferable because it better reflects the economics of an investment that is made for the primary purpose of receiving tax credits and other tax benefits. In addition to a change in the timing of the recognition of amortization expense on LIHTC investments, amortization expense on LIHTC investments is now reflected in the income tax expense line, which provides users a better understanding of the nature of the returns of such investments, instead of in other operating expenses on the consolidated statements of income.

The following table presents amortization and tax credits recognized associated with our investments in LIHTC partnerships for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018:

We perform an impairment assessment of our mortgage servicing rights whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable.

8. DERIVATIVES
 
We utilize various designated and undesignated derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to movements in interest rates including interest rate lock commitments and forward sale commitments. We measure all derivatives at fair value on our consolidated balance sheet. In each reporting period, we record the derivative instruments in other assets or other liabilities depending on whether the derivatives are in an asset or liability position. For derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedging instruments, we record the effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the derivative in AOCI, net of tax, until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. We immediately recognize the portion of the gain or loss in the fair value of the derivative that represents hedge ineffectiveness in current period earnings. For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of the derivative are included in current period earnings. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we were not party to any derivatives designated as part of a fair value or cash flow hedge.
 
Interest Rate Lock and Forward Sale Commitments
 
We enter into interest rate lock commitments on certain mortgage loans that are intended to be sold. To manage interest rate risk on interest rate lock commitments, we also enter into forward loan sale commitments. The interest rate locks and forward loan sale commitments are accounted for as undesignated derivatives and are recorded at their respective fair values in other assets or other liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in current period earnings. These instruments serve to reduce our exposure to movements in interest rates. At June 30, 2019, we were a party to interest rate lock and forward sale commitments on $1.0 million and $7.8 million of mortgage loans, respectively.

9. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND LONG-TERM DEBT
 
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Other Borrowings

The bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (the "FHLB") and maintained a $1.74 billion line of credit as of June 30, 2019, compared to $1.43 billion at December 31, 2018. At June 30, 2019, $1.40 billion was undrawn under this arrangement, compared to $1.18 billion at December 31, 2018. Short-term borrowings under this arrangement totaled $221.0 million at June 30, 2019, compared to $197.0 million at December 31, 2018.  Long-term borrowings under this arrangement totaled $50.0 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. FHLB advances available at June 30, 2019 were secured by certain real estate loans with a carrying value of $2.34 billion in accordance with the collateral provisions of the Advances, Security and Deposit Agreement with the FHLB.
 
At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our bank had additional unused borrowings available at the Federal Reserve discount window of $67.7 million and $73.9 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, certain commercial and commercial real estate loans with a carrying value totaling $121.2 million and $123.3 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral on our line of credit with the Federal Reserve discount window. The Federal Reserve does not have the right to sell or repledge these loans.
 
Subordinated Debentures

In October 2003, we created two wholly-owned statutory trusts, CPB Capital Trust II ("Trust II") and CPB Statutory Trust III ("Trust III"). Trust II issued $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities bearing an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.85% and maturing on October 7, 2033. The principal assets of Trust II were $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust II trust preferred securities. Trust II issued $0.6 million of common securities to the Company.

On January 7, 2019, the Company completed the redemption of $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities of Trust II. The redemption price was 100% of the aggregate liquidation amount of the securities plus accumulated but unpaid distributions up to but not including the redemption date. The Company also redeemed $0.6 million of common securities issued by Trust II and held by the Company, as a result of the concurrent redemption of 100% of the principal assets of Trust II, or $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust II trust preferred securities. The redemption was pursuant to the optional prepayment provisions of the indenture. On January 22, 2019, Trust II was canceled with the state of Delaware.

Trust III issued $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities bearing an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.85% and maturing on December 17, 2033. The principal assets of Trust III were $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust III trust preferred securities. Trust III issued $0.6 million of common securities to the Company.

On December 17, 2018, the Company completed the redemption of $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities of Trust III. The redemption price was 100% of the aggregate liquidation amount of the securities plus accumulated but unpaid distributions up to but not including the redemption date. The Company also redeemed $0.6 million of common securities issued by Trust III and held by the Company, as a result of the concurrent redemption of 100% of the principal assets of Trust III, or $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust III trust preferred securities. The redemption was pursuant to the optional prepayment provisions of the indenture. On January 9, 2019, Trust III was canceled with the state of Connecticut.
 
In September 2004, we created a wholly-owned statutory trust, CPB Capital Trust IV ("Trust IV"). Trust IV issued $30.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities bearing an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.45% and maturing on December 15, 2034. The principal assets of Trust IV are $30.9 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust IV trust preferred securities. Trust IV issued $0.9 million of common securities to the Company.
 
In December 2004, we created a wholly-owned statutory trust, CPB Statutory Trust V ("Trust V"). Trust V issued $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities bearing an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 1.87% and maturing on December 15, 2034. The principal assets of Trust V are $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust V trust preferred securities. Trust V issued $0.6 million of common securities to the Company.
 
The floating trust preferred securities, the junior subordinated debentures that are the assets of Trusts IV and V and the common securities issued by Trusts IV and V are redeemable in whole or in part on any interest payment date on or after December 15, 2009 for Trust IV and V, or at any time in whole but not in part within 90 days following the occurrence of certain events. Our obligations with respect to the issuance of the trust preferred securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of each trust's obligations with respect to its trust preferred securities. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, we may elect from time to time to defer interest payments on the subordinated debentures, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related trust preferred securities, for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods without default or penalty.

The subordinated debentures may be included in Tier 1 capital, with certain limitations applicable, under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations.

12. LEASES

We lease certain land and buildings for our bank branches and ATMs. In some instances, a lease may contain renewal options to extend the term of the lease. All renewal options are likely to be exercised and therefore have been recognized as part of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in accordance with ASC 842, "Leases". Certain leases also contain variable payments that are primarily determined based on common area maintenance costs and Hawaii state tax rates. All leases are operating leases and we do not have any short term leases. The most significant assumption related to the Company’s application of ASC 842 was the discount rate assumption. As most of the Company’s lease agreements do not provide for an implicit interest rate, the Company used the collateralized interest rate that the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term to estimate the Company’s lease liability as of January 1, 2019.

Total lease cost, cash flow information, weighted-average remaining lease term and weighted-average discount rate is summarized below for the period indicated:

15. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
 
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions are set forth below for our financial instruments.
 
Short-Term Financial Instruments
 
The carrying values of short-term financial instruments are deemed to approximate fair values. Such instruments are considered readily convertible to cash and include cash and due from financial institutions, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, accrued interest receivable, the majority of Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other short-term borrowings, and accrued interest payable.

Investment Securities
 
The fair value of investment securities is based on market price quotations received from third-party pricing services. The third-party pricing services utilize pricing models supported with timely market data information. Where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities.

Loans
 
Fair values of loans are estimated based on discounted cash flows of portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics including the type of loan, interest terms and repayment history. Fair values are calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through estimated maturities using estimated market discount rates. Estimated market discount rates are reflective of credit and interest rate risks inherent in the Company's various loan types and are derived from available market information, as well as specific borrower information. In accordance with ASU 2016-01, the fair value of loans are measured based on the notion of exit price.
 
Loans Held for Sale
 
The fair value of loans classified as held for sale are generally based upon quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, acceptance of firm offer letters with agreed upon purchase prices, discounted cash flow models that take into account market observable assumptions, or independent appraisals of the underlying collateral securing the loans. We report the fair values of Hawaii and U.S. Mainland construction and commercial real estate loans, if any, net of applicable selling costs on our consolidated balance sheets.
 

32

 

Deposit Liabilities
 
The fair values of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits and interest-bearing demand and savings accounts, are equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
 
Long-Term Debt
 
The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated by discounting scheduled cash flows over the contractual borrowing period at the estimated market rate for similar borrowing arrangements.
 
Derivatives

The fair values of derivative financial instruments are based upon current market values, if available. If there are no relevant comparables, fair values are based on pricing models using current assumptions for interest rate swaps and options.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
 
The fair values of off-balance sheet financial instruments are estimated based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties, current settlement values or quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Limitations
 
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time our entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of our financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
 

33

 

Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. For example, significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets or liabilities include deferred tax assets, premises and equipment and intangible assets.

Fair Value Measurements
 
We group our financial assets and liabilities at fair value into three levels based on the markets in which the financial assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value as follows:
 
Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3 — Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques that requires the use of significant judgment or estimation.
 

35

 

We base our fair values on the price that we would expect to receive if an asset were sold, or the price that we would expect to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We also maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements.
 
We use fair value measurements to record adjustments to certain financial assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Available-for-sale and equity securities and derivatives are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, we may be required to record other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis such as loans held for sale, impaired loans, mortgage servicing rights, and other real estate owned. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of the lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
 
The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into or out of a level as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers of financial assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Also, there were no transfers of financial assets and liabilities into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Within the states and political subdivisions available-for-sale debt securities category, the Company holds four mortgage revenue bonds issued by the City & County of Honolulu with an aggregate fair value of $11.4 million and $11.3 million at June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its mortgage revenue bonds by using a discounted cash flow model to calculate the present value of estimated future principal and interest payments.
 
The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company's mortgage revenue bonds is the weighted average discount rate. As of June 30, 2019, the weighted average discount rate utilized was 4.27% compared to 5.16% at June 30, 2018 and 5.06% at December 31, 2018, which was derived by incorporating a credit spread over the FHLB Fixed-Rate Advance curve. Significant increases (decreases) in the weighted average discount rate could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

16. SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
We have the following three reportable segments: Banking Operations, Treasury and All Others. These segments are consistent with our internal functional reporting lines and are managed separately because each unit has different target markets, technological requirements, and specialized skills.
 
The Banking Operations segment includes construction and real estate development lending, commercial lending, residential mortgage lending, indirect auto lending, trust services, retail brokerage services and our retail branch offices, which provide a full range of deposit and loan products, as well as various other banking services. The Treasury segment is responsible for managing the Company's investment securities portfolio and wholesale funding activities. The All Others segment consists of all activities not captured by the Banking Operations or Treasury segments described above and includes activities such as electronic banking, data processing and management of bank owned properties.
 
The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with the Company's accounting policies that are described in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC. The majority of the Company's net income is derived from net interest income. Accordingly, management focuses primarily on net interest income, rather than gross interest income and expense amounts, in evaluating segment profitability.
 
Intersegment net interest income (expense) was allocated to each segment based upon a funds transfer pricing process that assigns costs of funds to assets and earnings credits to liabilities based on market interest rates that reflect interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics. All administrative and overhead expenses are allocated to the segments at cost. Cash, investment securities, loans and leases and their related balances are allocated to the segment responsible for acquisition and maintenance of those assets. Segment assets also include all premises and equipment used directly in segment operations.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Overview
 
Central Pacific Financial Corp. ("CPF") is a Hawaii corporation and a bank holding company. Our principal business is to serve as a holding company for our bank subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank. We refer to Central Pacific Bank herein as "our bank" or "the bank," and when we say "the Company," "we," "us" or "our," we mean the holding company on a consolidated basis with the bank and our other consolidated subsidiaries.
 
Central Pacific Bank is a full-service community bank with 35 branches and 78 ATMs located throughout the state of Hawaii. The bank offers a broad range of products and services including accepting time, savings, money market, and demand deposits and originating loans, including commercial loans, construction loans, commercial and residential mortgage loans, and consumer loans.

Basis of Presentation
 
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements under "Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited)." The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 28, 2019.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires that management make certain judgments and use certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosures made. Accounting estimates are deemed critical when a different estimate could have reasonably been used or where changes in the estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period and would materially impact our consolidated financial statements as of or for the periods presented. Management has discussed the development and selection of the critical accounting estimates noted below with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee has reviewed the accompanying disclosures.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
 
The allowance for loan and lease losses (the "Allowance") is management's estimate of incurred credit losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio at the balance sheet date. We maintain our Allowance at an amount we expect to be sufficient to absorb probable losses incurred in our loan and lease portfolio.

The Company's approach to developing the Allowance has three basic elements. These elements include specific reserves for individually impaired loans, a general allowance for loans other than those analyzed as individually impaired, and qualitative adjustments based on environmental and other factors which may be internal or external to the Company.
 
Specific Reserve
 
Individually impaired loans in all loan categories are evaluated using one of three valuation methods as prescribed under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 310-10, "Fair Value of Collateral, Observable Market Price, or Cash Flow". A loan is generally evaluated for impairment on an individual basis if it meets one or more of the following characteristics: risk-rated as substandard, doubtful or loss, loans on nonaccrual status, troubled debt restructures, or any loan deemed prudent by management to so analyze. If the valuation of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the deficiency will be charged off against the Allowance or, alternatively, a specific reserve will be established and included in the overall Allowance balance. The Company did not record a specific reserve as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

General Allowance

In determining the general allowance component of the Allowance, the Company utilizes a comprehensive approach to segment the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups. The Company's methodology segments the portfolio generally by FDIC Call Report codes. In the second quarter of 2017, an additional segment was added for auto dealer purchased loans. In the third quarter of 2018, another segment was broken out for multifamily commercial real estate loans. This results in eleven segments, and is consistent with general industry practice. For the purpose of determining general allowance loss factors, loss experience is derived from a migration analysis, with the exception of national syndicated loans and auto dealer purchased loans where an

42

 

average historical loss rate is applied due to limited historical loss experience. The key inputs to run a migration analysis are the length and frequency of the migration period, the dates for the migration periods to start and the number of migration periods used for the analysis. For each migration period, the analysis will determine the outstanding balance in each segment and/or sub-segment at the start of each period. These loans will then be followed for the length of the migration period to identify the amount of associated charge-offs and recoveries. A loss rate for each migration period is calculated using the formula 'net charge-offs over the period divided by beginning loan balance'. The Allowance methodology applies a look back period to January 1, 2010. The Company extends its look back period with each additional quarter passing. As of June 30, 2019, the look back period was nine years and six months.

Qualitative Adjustments

Our Allowance methodology uses qualitative adjustments to address changes in conditions, trends, and circumstances such as economic conditions and industry changes that could have a significant impact on the risk profile of the loan portfolio, and provide for losses in the loan portfolio that may not be reflected and/or captured in the historical loss data. In order to ensure that the qualitative adjustments are in compliance with current regulatory standards and U.S. GAAP, the Company is primarily basing adjustments on the nine standard factors outlined in the 2006 Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. These factors include: lending policies, economic conditions, loan profile, lending staff, problem loan trends, loan review, collateral, credit concentrations and other internal and external factors.

In recognizing that current and relevant environmental (economic, market or other) conditions that can affect repayment may not yet be fully reflected in historical loss experience, qualitative adjustments are applied to factor in current loan portfolio and market intelligence. These adjustments, which are added to the historical loss rate, consider the nature of the Company's primary markets and are reasonable, consistently determined and appropriately documented. Management reviews the results of the qualitative adjustment quarterly to ensure it is consistent with the trends in the overall economy, and from time to time may make adjustments, if necessary, to ensure directional consistency.

Financial Summary
 
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $13.5 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to $14.2 million, or $0.48 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $29.6 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, compared to $28.5 million, or $0.95 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Material Trends
 
The majority of our operations are concentrated in the state of Hawaii. As a result, our performance is significantly influenced by the real estate markets, economic environment and environmental conditions in Hawaii. Macroeconomic conditions also influence our performance. A favorable business environment is generally characterized by expanding gross state product, low unemployment and rising personal income; while an unfavorable business environment is characterized by the reverse.

Hawaii's general economic conditions continued to improve in 2018 and through the first half of 2019, but at a slower pace. The growth of Hawaii's economy has slowed, yet the Hawaii Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism ("DBEDT") sees a positive forecast with continued growth at a steady pace in 2019. Tourism continues to be Hawaii's center of strength and its most significant economic driver. While visitor arrivals to Hawaii grew during the six months ended June 30, 2019, visitor spending was down from the same prior year period. According to the Hawaii Tourism Authority ("HTA"), 5.2

43

 

million visitors visited the state in the six months ended June 30, 2019. This was an increase of 4.2% from the number of visitor arrivals in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The HTA also reported total spending by visitors decreased to $8.9 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2019, or a decrease of $183.2 million, or 2.0%, from the six months ended June 30, 2018. According to DBEDT, total visitor arrivals and visitor spending are both expected to increase 2.6% and 1.1% in 2019, respectively, and 1.9% and 3.0% in 2020, respectively.

DBEDT reported Hawaii's economy, as measured by the growth of real personal income and real gross state product, continued positive growth in 2018. DBEDT projects real personal income and real gross state product to grow at a rate of 1.5% and 1.2%, respectively, for 2019 and 1.6% and 1.3%, respectively, for 2020.
 
Hawaii's labor market continues to be among the best in the nation. The Department of Labor and Industrial Relations reported that Hawaii's seasonally adjusted annual unemployment rate was 2.8% in June 2019, compared to 2.4% in June 2018. Hawaii's unemployment rate in June 2019 remained below the national seasonally adjusted unemployment rate of 3.7%. DBEDT projects Hawaii's seasonally adjusted annual unemployment rate to be 3.0% in 2019 and 3.1% in 2020.

Real estate lending is a primary focus for us, including residential mortgage and commercial mortgage loans. As a result, we are dependent on the strength of Hawaii's real estate market. Home sales in Hawaii remained strong in 2018. The Oahu real estate market closed out 2018 with its eighth straight year of appreciation, however the sales volume for the year dropped. During the first half of 2019, Oahu sales volume and median sales prices have slowed. According to the Honolulu Board of Realtors, Oahu unit sales volume declined by 3.7% for single-family homes and 8.8% for condominiums for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same time period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the median sales price for single-family homes on Oahu was $775,000, representing a decrease of 0.5% from $779,000 in the same prior year period. The median sales price for condominiums on Oahu for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $419,000, representing a decrease of 1.4% from $425,000 in the same prior year period.

As we have seen in the past, our operating results are significantly impacted by the economy in Hawaii and the composition of our loan portfolio. Loan demand, deposit growth, provision for loan and lease losses ("Provision"), asset quality, noninterest income and noninterest expense are all affected by changes in economic conditions. If the residential and commercial real estate markets we have exposure to deteriorate, our results of operations would be negatively impacted.

In late 2008, the Federal Reserve lowered the target Federal Funds range to 0%-0.25%. In an attempt to help the overall economy, the Federal Reserve kept interest rates low through its targeted Federal Funds rate until the recession was safely over. In recent years, the Federal Reserve has begun raising the target Federal Funds range.

During 2018, the Federal Reserve increased the Federal Funds range four times, each by 25 basis points to 2.25%-2.50% as of December 31, 2018. The Federal Reserve left the Federal Funds range unchanged during the first half of 2019 but cut the Federal Funds range by 25 basis points to 2.00%-2.25% at its July 2019 meeting. The Federal Reserve pledged future moves will be done patiently and with an eye toward how global economic and financial developments unfold.

Further decreases in the Federal Funds rate would likely result in lower overall interest rates and may support the continued expansion of the U.S. economy. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, could influence, among other things, (i) the amount of interest we receive on loans and securities, (ii) the amount of interest we pay on deposits and borrowings, (iii) our ability to originate loans and obtain deposits and (iv) the fair value of our assets and liabilities.

RISE2020

Commencing in the second quarter of 2019, the Company launched RISE2020, a new multifaceted initiative intended to enhance customer experience, drive stronger long-term growth and profitability, improve shareholder returns and lower our efficiency ratio. RISE2020 includes initiatives in the following key areas of opportunity: Digital Banking, Revenue Enhancements, Branch Transformation and Operational Excellence. RISE2020 is intended to provide Central Pacific Bank with best-in class products and services in several strategic areas. The Company plans to invest approximately $40 million in RISE2020 during the remainder of 2019 and throughout 2020. Some of these investments will be capitalized, while others are recurring annually. The Company expects annual operating expense to increase by approximately $7 million when RISE2020 is fully implemented by the start of 2021. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company incurred approximately $1.0 million in RISE2020-related expenses and expects to incur approximately $2.5 million in RISE2020-related expense during the second half of 2019. While operating expenses are expected to increase, the Company is forecasting enhanced revenue growth. As a result, we expect our efficiency ratio to be in the 63-65% range in 2019 and 2020. Longer-term, the Company is targeting a 15% return on average shareholders' equity and a 57% efficiency ratio by the end of 2022.

Results of Operations
 
Net Interest Income
 
Net interest income, when annualized and expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets, is referred to as "net interest margin." Interest income, which includes loan fees and resultant yield information, is expressed on a taxable equivalent basis using a federal statutory tax rate of 21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. A comparison of net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis ("net interest income") for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is set forth below.

Net interest income (expressed on a taxable-equivalent basis) was $45.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, representing an increase of 6.2% from $42.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Net interest income (expressed on a taxable-equivalent basis) was $90.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, representing an increase of 6.4% from $85.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to a significant increase in average loans and leases balances funded by runoff of the investment

securities portfolio, combined with higher yields earned on the loans and leases and investment securities portfolios. In addition, average government time deposits (included in time deposits $100,000 and over) declined significantly. Partially offsetting this decrease were increases in rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and short-term borrowings, primarily attributable to the 25 basis point increases in the Federal Funds rate in each of the four quarters of 2018, combined with a significant increase in short-term borrowings.

Interest Income
 
Taxable-equivalent interest income was $54.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, representing an increase of 11.4% from $48.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to a $334.8 million increase in average loans and leases compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, accounting for approximately $3.4 million of the increase in interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2019. In addition, the average yields earned on the loans and leases portfolio during the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased by 33 bp, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, accounting for approximately $3.4 million of the increase in interest income. These increases were partially offset by a $215.5 million decline in average investment securities, which decreased interest income by approximately $1.4 million.

Taxable-equivalent interest income was $107.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, representing an increase of 11.8% from $96.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to a $314.7 million increase in average loans and leases compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018, accounting for approximately $6.3 million of the increase in interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2019. In addition, the average yields earned on the loans and leases and investment securities portfolios during the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by 34 bp and 7 bp, respectively, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018, accounting for approximately $7.0 million and $0.5 million of the increase in interest income, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a $188.1 million decline in average investment securities, which decreased interest income by approximately $2.5 million.

Interest Expense
 
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $8.7 million, representing an increase of 49.5% from the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to 56 bp and 26 bp increases in average rates paid on time deposits $100,000 and over and savings and money market deposits, respectively, combined with the 61 bp increase in average rates paid on short-term borrowings, which increased interest expense by approximately $1.3 million, $1.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Time deposits $100,000 and over primarily consists of public funds which may be opportunistic sources of funding, but fluctuate more directly with changes in the Federal Funds rate. In addition, average short-term borrowings increased by $165.4 million, resulting in higher interest expense of approximately $0.8 million. These increases were partially offset by a $140.1 million decline in average time deposits $100,000 and over, which decreased interest expense by approximately $0.5 million.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $16.8 million, representing an increase of 54.8% from the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to 63 bp and 19 bp increases in average rates paid on time deposits $100,000 and over and savings and money market deposits, respectively, combined with a 63 bp increase in average rates paid on short-term borrowings, which increased interest expense by approximately $3.0 million, $1.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. In addition, average short-term borrowings increased by $147.2 million, resulting in higher interest expense of approximately $1.5 million. These increases were partially offset by a $94.0 million decline in average time deposits $100,000 and over, which decreased interest expense by approximately $0.6 million.

Net Interest Margin
 
Our net interest margin of 3.33% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased by 13 bp from the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our net interest margin of 3.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by 13 bp from the six months ended June 30, 2018.

The average yields earned on our interest-earning assets, which increased by 34 bp in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same prior year periods, outpaced the increase in average rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, which increased by 28 bp and 30 bp in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to the same prior year periods.

The aforementioned increases in average yields earned on our loans and leases and taxable investment securities portfolios during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was partially offset by the aforementioned increases in average rates paid

on our time deposits $100,000 and over and savings and money market deposits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
 
Our Provision was a debit of $1.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to a debit of $0.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our Provision was a debit of $2.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to a debit of $0.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Our net charge-offs were $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net charge-offs of $1.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our net charge-offs were $2.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net charge-offs of $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, total other operating income of $10.1 million increased by $0.5 million, or 4.8%, from $9.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase from the year-ago quarter was primarily due to higher income from bank-owned life insurance of $0.4 million and higher commissions and fees on investment services of $0.3 million (included in other service charges and fees), partially offset by higher amortization of mortgage servicing rights of $0.2 million (included in mortgage banking income). The higher income from bank-owned life insurance was primarily attributable to fluctuations in the equity markets during the quarter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, total other operating income of $21.8 million increased by $3.2 million, or 17.1%, from $18.6 million in the year-ago period. The increase from the year-ago period was primarily due to the conversion of MasterCard Class B common stock received during their initial public offering to Class A common stock and immediate sale of the converted shares resulting in a gain of $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2019, combined with higher income from bank-owned life insurance of $1.0 million and higher commissions and fees on investment services of $0.3 million (included in other service charges and fees). The higher income from bank-owned life insurance was primarily attributable to fluctuations in the equity markets. Partially offsetting the increases was lower mortgage banking income of $0.6 million.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, total other operating expense was $36.1 million and increased by $2.5 million, or 7.4%, from $33.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits of $1.8 million, higher entertainment and promotions expense of $0.8 million, and higher computer software expense of $0.3 million. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was partially attributable to the addition of positions in strategic areas and higher commissions, combined with annual merit increases effective in the second quarter of 2019. The higher entertainment and promotions expense in the second quarter of 2019 was primarily attributable to expenses related to a core deposit gathering campaign. These increases were partially offset by lower amortization of core deposit premium of $0.7 million, as the intangible asset was fully amortized as of September 30, 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, total other operating expense was $70.5 million and increased by $3.4 million, or 5.1%, from $67.0 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits of $3.2 million, higher entertainment and promotions expense of $0.8 million and higher computer software expense of $0.6 million. These increases were partially offset by lower amortization of core deposit premium of $1.3 million, and lower legal and professional services of $0.3 million compared to the year-ago period.

A key measure of operating efficiency tracked by management is the efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing total operating expenses by total revenue (net interest income and total other operating income). Management believes that the efficiency ratio provides useful supplemental information that is important to a proper understanding of the company's core business results by investors. Our efficiency ratio should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to the efficiency ratio presented by other companies.

The following table sets forth a calculation of our efficiency ratio for each of the periods indicated:

Our efficiency ratio increased to 65.09% in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 64.26% in the year-ago quarter and improved to 62.76% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 64.70% in the year-ago period. The efficiency ratio in the six months ended June 30, 2019 was positively impacted by the aforementioned $2.6 million gain on sale of MasterCard stock.

Income Taxes
 
The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.4 million and $9.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to $3.9 million and $7.7 million in the same prior year periods, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was 24.7% and 24.4%, respectively, compared to 21.7% and 21.4% in the same prior year periods, respectively. The increases in income tax expense and the effective tax rate in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to higher pre-tax income in the current quarter, combined with an income tax benefit of $0.7 million related to the finalization of the impact of H.R.1, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, recorded in the first quarter of 2018 and an income tax benefit of $0.6 million related to a tax accounting method change strategy recorded in the second quarter of 2018.

The valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets ("DTA") totaled $3.3 million at June 30, 2019 and $3.5 million at December 31, 2018, of which $3.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, related to our DTA from net apportioned net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards for California state income tax purposes as we do not expect to generate sufficient income in California to utilize the DTA. The remaining valuation allowance of $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 relates to a Hawaii capital loss carryforward balance that we do not expect to be able to utilize. Net of the valuation allowance, the Company's net DTA totaled $13.0 million at June 30, 2019, compared to a net DTA of $21.5 million as of December 31, 2018, and is included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets.
 
Financial Condition
 
Total assets at June 30, 2019 of $5.92 billion increased by $113.0 million from $5.81 billion at December 31, 2018.
 
Investment Securities
 
Investment securities of $1.26 billion at June 30, 2019 decreased by $99.0 million, or 7.3%, from December 31, 2018. The decrease reflects $126.5 million in principal runoff, offset by a $27.4 million increase in the market valuation on the available-for-sale portfolio.

Loans and leases, net of deferred costs, of $4.25 billion at June 30, 2019 increased by $168.7 million, or 4.1%, from December 31, 2018. The increase reflects net increases in the following loan portfolios: residential mortgage of $88.7 million, commercial mortgage of $52.6 million, consumer of $9.0 million, commercial, financial and agricultural of $8.8 million, construction of $5.5 million, and home equity of $4.2 million.

The Hawaii loan portfolio increased by $136.6 million, or 3.8%, from December 31, 2018. The increase reflects net increases in the following loan portfolios: residential mortgage of $88.7 million, commercial mortgage of $44.4 million, construction of $7.8 million, and home equity of $4.2 million. The increases in the portfolios were primarily due to an increased demand from

53

 

both new and existing customers. These increases were partially offset by net decreases in the following loan portfolios: consumer of $4.6 million and commercial, financial and agricultural of $3.8 million.

The U.S. Mainland loan portfolio increased by $32.1 million, or 7.0% from December 31, 2018. The net increase was primarily attributable to net increases in the consumer loan portfolio of $13.6 million, commercial, financial and agricultural loan portfolio of $12.6 million, and commercial mortgage loan portfolio of $8.2 million.

In the first quarter of 2019, we purchased U.S Mainland consumer loans totaling $18.3 million which represented the outstanding balance at the time of purchase. In the second quarter of 2019, we purchased U.S Mainland consumer loans totaling $31.0 million which represented the outstanding balance at the time of purchase.

In 2018, we purchased U.S Mainland consumer loans totaling $58.6 million, which included a $0.1 million premium over the $58.5 million outstanding balance at the time of purchase.

Nonperforming assets, which includes nonaccrual loans and leases and other real estate, totaled $1.3 million at June 30, 2019, compared to $2.7 million at December 31, 2018. There were no nonperforming loans classified as held for sale at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The decrease in nonperforming assets from December 31, 2018 was primarily attributable to $2.1 million in repayments of nonaccrual loans and a $0.1 million write-down of a Hawaii residential mortgage foreclosed asset, offset by two additions to nonaccrual loans totaling $0.8 million.
 
Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") included in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2019 consisted of three Hawaii residential mortgage loans with a combined principal balance of $0.4 million.

Concessions made to the original contractual terms of these loans consisted primarily of the deferral of interest and/or principal payments due to deterioration in the borrowers' financial condition. The principal balances on these TDRs had matured and/or were in default at the time of restructure and we have no commitments to lend additional funds to any of these borrowers. There were $9.1 million of TDRs still accruing interest at June 30, 2019, none of which were more than 90 days delinquent. At December 31, 2018, there were $12.9 million of TDRs still accruing interest, none of which were more than 90 days delinquent.

Our Allowance at June 30, 2019 totaled $48.3 million compared to $47.9 million at December 31, 2018. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a debit to the Provision of $1.4 million primarily due to the increase in our loan portfolio and reflects net charge-offs of $0.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a debit to the Provision of $2.7 million primarily due to the increase in our loan portfolio and reflects net charge-offs of $2.3 million.
 
Our Allowance as a percentage of total loans and leases decreased from 1.17% at December 31, 2018 to 1.14% at June 30, 2019. The decrease in our Allowance as a percentage of total loans and leases reflects the credit quality of the loan portfolio, real estate markets and general economic conditions both in Hawaii and the U.S. Mainland. Our Allowance as a percentage of nonperforming assets increased from 1,750.68% at December 31, 2018 to 3,836.80% at June 30, 2019.
 
In accordance with GAAP, loans held for sale and other real estate assets are not included in our assessment of the Allowance.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
 
The bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (the "FHLB"). FHLB stock of $17.8 million at June 30, 2019 increased by $1.2 million, or 7.1%, from the FHLB stock balance at December 31, 2018.  FHLB stock has an activity-based stock requirement, thus as borrowings increase, so will our holdings of FHLB stock. There is a minimum requirement of $7.0 million in FHLB stock even if we have no borrowings outstanding.

Total deposits of $4.98 billion at June 30, 2019 increased by $30.4 million from total deposits of $4.95 billion at December 31, 2018. Net increases in savings and money market deposits of $125.5 million and interest-bearing demand deposits of $48.7 million, were partially offset by net decreases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits of $85.8 million, and government time deposits of $56.5 million.
 
Core deposits, which we define as demand deposits, savings and money market deposits, and time deposits less than $100,000, totaled $4.10 billion at June 30, 2019 and increased by $82.9 million, or 2.1%, from December 31, 2018. Core deposits as a percentage of total deposits was 82.4% at June 30, 2019, compared to 81.2% at December 31, 2018.

Capital Resources
 
In order to ensure adequate levels of capital, we conduct an ongoing assessment of projected sources and uses of capital in conjunction with an analysis of the size and quality of our assets, the level of risk and regulatory capital requirements. As part of this ongoing assessment, the Board of Directors reviews our capital position on an ongoing basis to ensure it is adequate, including, but not limited to, need for raising additional capital or returning capital to our shareholders, including the ability to declare cash dividends or repurchase our securities.
 
Common and Preferred Equity
 
Shareholders' equity totaled $515.7 million at June 30, 2019, compared to $491.7 million at December 31, 2018. The change in total shareholders' equity was attributable to net income of $29.6 million and other comprehensive income of $23.7 million, partially offset by the repurchase of 490,700 shares of common stock under our repurchase program, at a cost of $14.0 million and cash dividends paid of $12.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased approximately 1.7% of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2018.

Our total shareholders' equity to total assets ratio was 8.71% at June 30, 2019, compared to 8.47% at December 31, 2018. Our book value per share was $18.05 and $16.97 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

As a Hawaii state-chartered bank, the bank may only pay dividends to the extent it has retained earnings as defined under Hawaii banking law ("Statutory Retained Earnings"), which differs from GAAP retained earnings. As of June 30, 2019, the bank had Statutory Retained Earnings of $55.2 million. On July 23, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.23 per share on the Company's outstanding common stock, which was a 9.5% increase from the $0.21 per share a year-ago.
 
Dividends are payable at the discretion of the Board of Directors and there can be no assurance that the Board of Directors will continue to pay dividends at the same rate, or at all, in the future. Our ability to pay cash dividends to our shareholders is subject to restrictions under federal and Hawaii law, including restrictions imposed by the FRB and covenants set forth in various agreements we are a party to, including covenants set forth in our subordinated debentures.
 
In the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company repurchased 1,155,157 shares of common stock, at a cost of $32.8 million, under the Company's repurchase plan.

In June 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30 million of its common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a newly authorized share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Plan"). The Repurchase Plan replaces and supersedes in its entirety the share repurchase program previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors, which had $6.8 million in remaining repurchase authority. In the six months ended June 30, 2019, a total of 490,700 shares of common stock, at a cost of $14.0 million, were repurchased under the Company's stock repurchase plans. As of June 30, 2019, $29.9 million remained available for repurchase under the Company's Repurchase Plan. The Company's Repurchase Plan has no expiration date.

Trust Preferred Securities

On December 17, 2018, the Company completed the redemption of $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities of CPB Statutory Trust III ("Trust III") bearing an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.85% and maturing on December 17, 2033. The redemption price was 100% of the aggregate liquidation amount of the securities plus accumulated but unpaid distributions up to but not including the redemption date. The Company also redeemed $0.6 million of common securities issued by Trust III and held by the Company, as a result of the concurrent redemption of 100% of the principal assets of Trust III, or $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust III trust preferred securities. The redemption was pursuant to the optional prepayment provisions of the indenture. On January 9, 2019, Trust III was canceled with the state of Connecticut.

On January 7, 2019, the Company completed the redemption of $20.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities of CPB Capital Trust II ("Trust II") bearing an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.85% and maturing on October 7, 2033. The redemption price was 100% of the aggregate liquidation amount of the securities plus accumulated but unpaid distributions up to but not including the redemption date. The Company also redeemed $0.6 million of common securities issued by Trust II and held by the Company, as a result of the concurrent redemption of 100% of the principal assets of Trust II, or $20.6 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures with an identical interest rate and maturity as the Trust II trust preferred securities. The redemption was pursuant to the optional prepayment provisions of the indenture. On January 22, 2019, Trust II was canceled with the state of Delaware.

As of June 30, 2019, we have two remaining statutory trusts, CPB Capital Trust IV ("Trust IV") and CPB Statutory Trust V ("Trust V"), which issued a total of $50.0 million in floating rate trust preferred securities. The trust preferred securities, the underlying floating rate junior subordinated debentures that are the assets of Trusts IV and V, and the common securities issued by Trusts IV and V are redeemable in whole or in part on any interest payment date on or after December 15, 2009 for Trust IV and V, or at any time in whole but not in part within 90 days following the occurrence of certain events. Our obligations with respect to the issuance of the trust preferred securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of each trust's obligations with respect to its trust preferred securities. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, we may elect from time to time to defer subordinated debenture interest payments, which would result in a deferral of dividend payments on the related trust preferred securities, for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods without default or penalty.

Regulatory Capital Ratios
 
General capital adequacy regulations adopted by the FRB and FDIC require an institution to maintain minimum leverage capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital, and common equity Tier 1 ("CET1") capital ratios. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and leverage ratios that apply across the industry, the regulators have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and

59

 

ratios. For a further discussion of the effect of forthcoming changes in required regulatory capital ratios, see the discussion in the "Business — Supervision and Regulation" sections of our 2018 Form 10-K.
 
The Company's and the bank's leverage capital, tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital, and CET1 risk-based capital ratios as of June 30, 2019 were above the levels required for a "well capitalized" regulatory designation.
 
The following table sets forth the Company's and the bank's capital ratios, as well as the minimum capital adequacy requirements applicable to all financial institutions as of the dates indicated.

Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk
 
Our earnings and capital are sensitive to risk of interest rate fluctuations. Interest rate risk arises when rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities mature or reprice during different periods or in differing amounts. In the normal course of business, we are subjected to interest rate risk through the activities of making loans and taking deposits, as well as from our investment securities portfolio and other interest-bearing funding sources. Asset/liability management attempts to coordinate our rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities to meet our financial objectives.

Our Asset/Liability Management Policy seeks to maximize the risk-adjusted return to shareholders while maintaining consistently acceptable levels of liquidity, interest rate risk and capitalization. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee, or ALCO, monitors interest rate risk through the use of interest rate sensitivity gap, net interest income and market value of portfolio equity simulation and rate shock analyses. This process is designed to measure the impact of future changes in interest rates on net interest income and market value of portfolio equity. Adverse interest rate risk exposures are managed through the shortening or lengthening of the duration of assets and liabilities.

ALCO utilizes a detailed and dynamic simulation model to measure and manage interest rate risk exposures. The simulation process is designed to measure the impact of future changes in interest rates on net interest income and market value of portfolio equity and to allow ALCO to model alternative balance sheet strategies.

The following reflects our net interest income sensitivity analysis as of June 30, 2019, over a one-year horizon, assuming no balance sheet growth and given both a 100 bp upward and 100 bp downward parallel shift in interest rates.

Liquidity and Borrowing Arrangements
 
Our objective in managing liquidity is to maintain a balance between sources and uses of funds in order to economically meet the cash requirements of customers for loans and deposit withdrawals and participate in lending and investment opportunities as they arise. We monitor our liquidity position in relation to changes in loan and deposit balances on a daily basis to ensure maximum utilization, maintenance of an adequate level of readily marketable assets and access to short-term funding sources.
 
Core deposits have historically provided us with a sizable source of relatively stable and low cost funds, but are subject to competitive pressure in our market. In addition to core deposit funding, we also have access to a variety of other short-term and long-term funding sources, which include proceeds from maturities of our investment securities, as well as secondary funding sources such as the FHLB, secured repurchase agreements and the Federal Reserve discount window, available to meet our liquidity needs. While we historically have had access to these other funding sources, access to these sources may not be guaranteed and can be restricted in the future as a result of market conditions or the Company's and bank's financial position.
 
The bank is a member of and maintained a $1.74 billion line of credit with the FHLB as of June 30, 2019, compared to $1.43 billion at December 31, 2018. We had $221.0 million in short-term borrowings under this arrangement at June 30, 2019, compared to $197.0 million at December 31, 2018. Long-term borrowings under this arrangement totaled $50.0 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. FHLB advances available at June 30, 2019 were secured by certain real estate loans with a carrying value of $2.34 billion in accordance with the collateral provisions of the Advances, Security and Deposit Agreement with the FHLB. At June 30, 2019, $1.40 billion was undrawn under this arrangement, compared to $1.18 billion at December 31, 2018.
 
At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our bank had additional unused borrowings available at the Federal Reserve discount window of $67.7 million and $73.9 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, certain commercial and commercial real estate loans with a carrying value totaling $121.2 million and $123.3 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral on our line of credit with the Federal Reserve discount window. The Federal Reserve does not have the right to sell or repledge these loans.
 
Our ability to maintain adequate levels of liquidity is dependent on our ability to continue to maintain our strong risk profile and capital base. Our liquidity may also be negatively impacted by weakness in the financial markets and industry-wide reductions in liquidity.
 
Contractual Obligations
 
Information regarding our contractual obligations is provided in "Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company signed an extension to its existing agreement with a computer software vendor. This extension increases the Company's contractual obligations for the years 2022 through 2024 by approximately $6 million per year. There have been no other material changes in our contractual obligations since December 31, 2018.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Market risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in market rates/prices such as interest rates, foreign currency rates, commodity prices and equity prices. Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk that occurs when rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities mature or reprice during different periods or in differing amounts. Asset/liability management attempts to coordinate our rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities to meet our financial objectives. The Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO") monitors interest rate risk through the use of interest rate sensitivity gap, net interest income and market value of portfolio equity simulation, and rate shock analyses. Adverse interest rate risk exposures are managed through the shortening or lengthening of the duration of assets and liabilities.

The primary analytical tool we use to measure and manage our interest rate risk is a simulation model that projects changes in net interest income ("NII") as market interest rates change. Our ALCO policy requires that simulated changes in NII should be within certain specified ranges, or steps must be taken to reduce interest rate risk. The results of the model indicate that the mix of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities at June 30, 2019 would not result in a fluctuation of NII that would exceed the established policy limits.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report and pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act"), the Company's management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness and design of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
There have been no material changes from the Risk Factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019, except as described below.

Our RISE2020 initiative may not be successful.

During the second half of 2019 and throughout 2020, we intend to invest an aggregate of approximately $40 million to upgrade our branch spaces, digital banking platforms and ATM network through a new initiative we call RISE2020. RISE2020 is intended to enhance customer experience, drive stronger long-term growth and profitability, improve shareholder returns and lower our efficiency ratio. However, we cannot provide any assurance that RISE2020 will achieve any of our objectives or will achieve our objectives to the extent we have forecasted. In particular, the costs of RISE2020 may exceed our expectations; we may not be able to attract new business from existing customers; new customers may not be attracted to our platform despite the amount of expense we incur; and implementation of RISE2020 initiatives may disrupt our operations. If our RISE2020 initiative is not successful, our overall noninterest expense will have increased without a corresponding increase in revenue and growth which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
Item 2.         Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
 
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
 
In June 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30 million of its common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a newly authorized share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Plan"). The Repurchase Plan replaces and supersedes in its entirety the share repurchase program previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors, which had $6.8 million in remaining repurchase authority.

In the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repurchased 213,700 shares of common stock, at an aggregate cost of $6.2 million, under the Company's stock repurchase plans. As of June 30, 2019, a total of $29.9 million remained available for repurchase under the Company's Repurchase Plan. There is no expiration date on the Repurchase Plan.
