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 in

light of the COVID-19 pandemic and from our RISE2020 initiative; or any statements of the assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing. Words such as "believes," "plans," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "forecasts," "hopes," "targeting," "continue," "remain," "will," "should," "estimates," "may" and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements.

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: the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic virus on local, national and international economies, including, but not limited to, the adverse impact on tourism and construction in the State of Hawaii, our borrowers, customers, third-party contractors, vendors and employees as well as the effects of government programs and initiatives in response to COVID-19; the increase in inventory or adverse conditions in the real estate market and deterioration in the construction industry; 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, earthquakes and pandemic virus and disease, including COVID-19) 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 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), changes in capital standards, other regulatory reform and federal and state legislation, including but not limited to regulations promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB"), government-sponsored enterprise reform, and any related rules and regulations which affect our business operations and competitiveness; the costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments, including 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 (the "FRB" or the "Federal Reserve"); inflation, interest rate, securities market and monetary fluctuations, including the anticipated replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") 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;

pandemic virus and disease, including COVID-19; changes in consumer spending, borrowings and savings habits; failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures; cybersecurity and data privacy breaches and the consequence therefrom; the ability to address deficiencies 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 ("FASB") 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 and herein. We urge investors to consider all of these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. 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.

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, 2019. 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 January 2020, we acquired a 50% ownership interest in a mortgage loan origination and brokerage company, Oahu 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 has been consolidated into our financial statements.

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 $0.1 million, $15.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively, at March 31, 2020 and $0.2 million, $15.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019. 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 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.

Risks and Uncertainties

COVID-19 Pandemic

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, and has since spread to a number of other countries, including the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and the United States declared a National Public Health Emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted the level of economic activity in the local, national and global economies and financial markets. The pandemic has resulted in temporary closures of many businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in many states and communities. The Company and its customers have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacts the Company's business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as its regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, is unknown at this time and will depend on future developments, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic. If the pandemic is sustained, it may further adversely impact the Company and the State of Hawaii and impair the ability of the Company's customers to fulfill their contractual obligations to the Company. This could cause the Company to experience a material adverse effect on its business operations, asset valuations, financial condition, and

results of operations. Material adverse impacts may include all or a combination of valuation impairments on the Company's investments, loans, mortgage servicing rights, deferred tax assets, or counter-party risk derivatives.

Change in Operating Segments and Reclassifications

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company reassessed the alignment of its reportable segments and combined its three reportable segments (Banking Operations, Treasury and All Others segments) into a single operating segment. We believe this change better reflects how the Company's Executive Committee, or its chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), manages, allocates resources and assesses performance of the activities of the Company. The Company also believes that this change is better aligned with how the Company's CODM manages its business. Segment results for 2019 have been reclassified to reflect the realignment of the Company’s reportable segments and be comparable to the segment results for 2020. This change in reportable segments did not have an impact on the Company's previously reported historical consolidated financial statements.

Investment Securities

Investments in debt securities are designated as trading, available-for-sale ("AFS"), or held-to-maturity ("HTM"). Investments in debt securities are designated as HTM only if we have the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. HTM securities are reported at amortized cost in the consolidated balance sheets. Trading securities are reported at fair value, with changes in fair value included in net income. Debt securities not classified as HTM or trading are classified as AFS and are reported at fair value, with net unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes, excluded from net income and included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI").

Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value included in net income. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are carried at cost, minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment.

The Company classifies its investment securities portfolio into the following major security types: mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"), other debt securities and equity securities. The Company’s MBS portfolio is comprised primarily of residential MBS issued by United States of America ("U.S.") government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. The remainder of the MBS portfolio are commercial MBS issued by U.S government entities and agencies (which there is no minimum credit rating), non-agency residential MBS (which shall meet a minimum credit rating of AAA) and non-agency commercial MBS (which shall meet a minimum credit rating of BBB and meet minimum internal credit guidelines).

The Company’s other debt securities portfolio is comprised of obligations issued by U.S. government entities and agencies, obligations issued by states and political subdivisions (which shall meet a minimum credit rating of BBB), and corporate bonds (which shall meet a minimum credit rating of BBB-).

Interest income on investment securities includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. We amortize premiums to the earliest call date. We accrete discounts associated with investment securities using the effective interest method over the life of the respective security instrument. Gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.

A debt security is placed on nonaccrual status at the time any principal or interest payments become 90 days delinquent. Interest accrued but not received for a security placed on non-accrual status is reversed against current period interest income. There were no investment securities on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2020 and the Company did not reverse any accrued interest against interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) for AFS Debt Securities

AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated for impairment at least quarterly. For AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether or not it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the investment security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through net income.

For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In conducting this assessment for debt securities in an unrealized loss position, management evaluates the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a

credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the investment security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an ACL is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an ACL is recognized in AOCI.

Changes in the ACL are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit losses. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of an AFS debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

As of March 31, 2020, the declines in market values of our AFS debt securities were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and volatility in the credit and financial markets. Because we have no intent to sell securities in an unrealized loss position and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell such securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, we do not believe a credit loss exists and an ACL was not recorded.

The Company has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of debt securities and report accrued interest receivable together with accrued interest on loans in the consolidated balance sheets. Accrued interest receivable on AFS debt securities totaled $4.5 million as of March 31, 2020. Accrued interest receivable on AFS debt securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

ACL for HTM Debt Securities

Management measures expected credit losses on HTM debt securities on a collective basis by major security type. For pools of such securities with common risk characteristics, the historical lifetime probability of default and severity of loss in the event of default is derived or obtained from external sources. Expected credit losses for these securities are estimated using a loss rate methodology which considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.

Expected credit loss on each security in the HTM portfolio that do not share common risk characteristics with any of the pools of debt securities is individually measured based on net realizable value, or the difference between the discounted value of the expected future cash flows, based on the original effective interest rate, and the recorded amortized cost basis of the security.

Accrued interest on HTM debt securities is reported in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

The Company did not have any HTM debt securities as of March 31, 2020.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock

We are a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (the "FHLB"). The bank is required to obtain and hold a specific number of shares of capital stock of the FHLB equal to the sum of a membership investment requirement and an activity-based investment requirement. The securities are reported at cost and are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at amortized cost, net of the ACL. Amortized cost is the unpaid principal amount outstanding, net of unamortized purchase premiums and discounts, unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs and cumulative principal charge-offs. Purchase premiums and discounts are generally amortized into interest income over the contractual terms of the underlying loans using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield and are amortized using the interest method over the contractual term of the loan, adjusted for actual prepayments. Deferred loan fees and costs on loans paid in full are recognized as a component of interest income on loans.

Interest income on loans is accrued at the contractual rate of interest on the unpaid principal balance. Accrued interest receivable on loans totaled $12.4 million at March 31, 2020 and is reported together with accrued interest on AFS debt securities on the consolidated balance sheets. Accrued interest receivable on loans is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Nonaccrual Loans

The Company determines delinquency status by considering the number of days full payments required by the contractual terms of the loan are past due. Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when interest payments are 90 days past due, or earlier should management determine that the borrowers will be unable to meet contractual principal and/or interest obligations, unless the loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income should management determine that the collectibility of such accrued interest is doubtful. All subsequent receipts are applied to principal outstanding and no interest income is recognized unless the financial condition and payment record of the borrowers warrant such recognition and the loan is restored to accrual status. A nonaccrual loan may be restored to an accrual basis when principal and interest payments are current for a predetermined period, normally at least six months, and full payment of principal and interest is reasonably assured.

Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”)

A loan is accounted for and reported as a TDR when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) the Company grants a concession to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty that it would not otherwise consider for a borrower or transaction with similar credit risk characteristics. A restructuring that results in only an insignificant delay in payment is not considered a concession. A delay may be considered insignificant if the payments subject to the delay are insignificant relative to the unpaid principal or collateral value and the contractual amount due, or the delay in timing of the restructured payment period is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments, the debt’s original contractual maturity or original expected duration.

TDRs that are performing and on accrual status as of the date of the modification remain on accrual status. TDRs that are nonperforming as of the date of modification generally remain as nonaccrual until the prospect of future payments in accordance with the modified loan agreement is reasonably assured, generally demonstrated when the borrower maintains compliance with the restructured terms for a predetermined period, normally at least six months. TDRs with temporary below-market concessions remain designated as a TDR regardless of the accrual or performance status until the loan is paid off. However, if the TDR loan has been modified in a subsequent restructure with market terms and the borrower is not currently experiencing financial difficulty, then the loan may be de-designated as a TDR.

The Company’s ACL reflects all effects of a TDR when an individual asset is specifically identified as a reasonably expected TDR. The Company has determined that a TDR is reasonably expected no later than the point when the lender concludes that modification is the best course of action and it is at least reasonably possible that the troubled borrower will accept some form of concession from the lender to avoid a default. Reasonably expected TDRs and executed TDRs are evaluated individually to determine the required ACL using the same method as all other loans held for investment, except when the value of a concession cannot be measured using a method other than the discounted cash flow method. When the value of a concession is measured using the discounted cash flow method, the ACL is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the original interest rate of the loan. TDRs performing in accordance with their modified contractual terms for a reasonable period of time may be included in the Company’s existing pools based on the underlying risk characteristics of the loan to measure the ACL.

ACL for Loans

Under the current expected credit loss methodology, the ACL for loans is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Our policy is to charge off a loan in the period in which the loan is deemed to be uncollectible and all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. We consider a loan to be uncollectible when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the Company can make a reasonable estimate of the loss. In these instances, the likelihood of and/or timeframe for recovery of the amount due is uncertain, weak, or protracted. Subsequent receipts, if any, are credited first to the remaining principal, then to the ACL for loans as recoveries, and finally to unaccrued interest.

The ACL for loans represents management's estimate of all expected credit losses over the expected contractual life of our existing loan portfolio. Management estimates the ACL balance using relevant available information about the collectability of cash flows, from internal and external sources, including historical information relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. When the Company is unable to forecast future economic events, management may revert to historical information.

The Company's methodologies incorporate a reasonable and supportable forecast period of one year and revert to historical loss information on straight-line basis over one year when its forecast is no longer deemed reasonable and supportable.

The Company maintains an ACL at an appropriate level as of a given balance sheet date to absorb management’s best estimate of expected life of loan credit losses.

Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the Company’s expected credit loss estimate. Adjustments to historical loss information may be made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or when historical asset terms do not reflect the contractual terms of the financial assets being evaluated.

The ACL methodology may also consider other adjustments to address changes in conditions, trends, and circumstances such as local 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. These factors include: lending policies, imprecision in forecasting future economic conditions, loan profile, lending staff, problem loan trends, loan review, collateral, credit concentration and other internal and external factors.

The Company uses the Moody’s forecasting service for the economic forecast used in the ACL methodology. The Moody’s forecast includes both National and Hawaii specific economic indicators. The Moody’s forecast is widely used in the industry and is reasonable and supportable. The Moody’s forecast is updated at least monthly and includes a variety of economic scenarios. Generally the Company will use the most recent consensus forecast from Moody’s as of the balance sheet date. During times of economic and market volatility or instability, the Company may include a qualitative factor for forecast imprecision that factors in other potential economic scenarios provided by Moody’s. Had the Company used a different forecast scenario, or utilized updated forecasts released after the balance sheet date, the provision for expected credit losses could be materially different.

The ACL is measured on a collective or pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company segments its portfolio generally by Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC") Call Report codes. Loan pools are further segmented by risk utilizing risk ratings or bands of payment delinquency (including TDR or non-accrual status), depending on what is most appropriate for each segment. Additional sub-segmentation may be utilized to identify groups of loans with unique risk characteristics relative to the rest of the portfolio.

The Company relies on a third-party platform which offers multiple methodologies to measure historical life losses. The Company has also developed models internally to incorporate future economic conditions and forecast future credit losses based on various macro-economic indicators.

The Company has identified the following portfolio segments to measure the allowance for credit losses:

Below is a description and the risk characteristics of each segment:

Construction loans

Construction loans include both residential and commercial development projects. Each construction project is evaluated for economic viability and construction loans pose higher credit risks than typical secured loans. Financial strength of the borrower, completion risk (the risk that the project will not be completed on time and within budget) and geographic location are the predominant risk characteristics of this segment.

Commercial real estate loans

Commercial real estate loans are secured by commercial properties. The predominant risk characteristic of this segment is operating risk, which is the risk that the borrower will be unable to generate sufficient cash flows from the operation of the property. Interest rate conditions and the commercial real estate market through economic cycles also impact risk levels.

Multi-family mortgage loans

Multi-family mortgage loans can comprise multi-building properties with extensive amenities to a single building with no amenities. The primary risk characteristic of this segment is operating risk or the ability to generate sufficient rental cash flows from the operation of the property within the owner’s strategy and resources.

Commercial, financial and agricultural loans

Loans in this category consist primarily of term loans and lines of credit to small and middle-market businesses and professionals. The predominant risk characteristics of this segment are the cash flows of the business we lend to, global cash flows including guarantor liquidity, as well as economic and market conditions. The borrower’s business is typically regarded as the principal source of repayment, though our underwriting policy and practice generally requires secondary sources of support or collateral to mitigate risk.

Home equity lines of credit

Home equity lines of credit include fixed or floating interest rate loans and are secured by single-family owner-occupied primary residences in Hawaii. They are underwritten based on a minimum FICO score, maximum debt-to-income ratio, and maximum combined loan-to-value ratio. Home equity lines of credit are monitored based on credit score, delinquency, end of draw period and maturity.

Residential mortgage loans

Residential mortgage loans include fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans primarily secured by single-family owner-occupied primary residences in Hawaii. Economic conditions such as unemployment levels, future changes in interest rates and other market factors impact the level of credit risk inherent in the portfolio.

Consumer loans - other revolving

This segment consists of consumer unsecured lines of credit. Its predominant risk characteristics relate to current and projected economic conditions as well as employment and income levels attributed to the borrower.

Consumer loans - non-revolving

This segment consists of consumer non-revolving loans, including dealer loans. Its predominant risk characteristics relate to current and projected economic conditions as well as employment and income levels attributed to the borrower.

Purchased consumer portfolios

Credit risk for purchased consumer loans is managed on a pooled basis. The predominant risk characteristics of purchased consumer loans include current and projected economic conditions, employment and income levels, and the quality of purchased consumer loans.

Below is a description of the methodologies mentioned above:

PD/LGD

The PD/LGD calculation is based on a cohort methodology whereby loans in the same cohort are tracked over time to identify defaults and corresponding losses. PD/LGD analysis requires a portfolio segmented into pools and then further sub-segmented by risk characteristics such as Risk Rating to measure losses accurately. PD measures the count or dollar amount of loans that defaulted in a given cohort. LGD measures the losses related to the loans that defaulted. Total loss rate is calculated using the formula ‘PD times LGD’.

Migration

Migration analysis is a cohort-based approach that measures cumulative net charge-offs over a defined time-horizon to calculate a loss rate that will be applied to the loan pool. Migration analysis requires a portfolio segmented by risk characteristics such as risk rating to measure loss rates accurately. 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'.

WARM

Under the WARM methodology, lifetime losses are calculated by determining the remaining life of the loan pool and then applying a loss rate which includes a forecast component over this remaining life. The methodology considers historical loss experience as well as a loss forecast expectation to estimate credit losses for the remaining balance of the loan pool. The calculated loss rate is applied to the contractual term (adjusted for prepayments) to determine the loan pool’s current expected credit losses.

Other

If a loan ceases to share similar risk characteristics with other loans in its segment, it will be moved to a different pool sharing similar risk characteristics. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis based on the fair value of the collateral or other approaches such as discounted cash flow (“DCF”) techniques. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation.

Determining the Contractual Term

Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans and are adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless either of the following applies: management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a troubled debt restructuring will be executed with an individual borrower or the extension or renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company. If such renewal options or extensions are present, these options are evaluated in determining the contractual term.

Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

The Company maintains a separate and distinct reserve for off-balance-sheet credit exposures which is included in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates the amount of expected losses by calculating a commitment usage factor for letters of credit, non-revolving lines of credit, and revolving lines of credit over the remaining life during which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company.

Letters of credit are generally unlikely to advance since they are typically in place only to ensure various forms of performance of the borrowers. Many of the letters of credit are cash secured. Non-revolving lines of credit are determined to be likely to advance as these are typically construction lines. Meanwhile, the likelihood of revolving lines of credit advancing varies with each individual borrower. Therefore, the future usage of each line was estimated based on the average line utilization of the revolving line of credit portfolio as a whole.

The estimate also applies the loss factors for each loan type used in the ACL for loans methodology, which is based on historical losses, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for off-balance sheet credit exposures in other operating expense. No credit loss estimate is reported for off-balance-sheet credit exposures that are unconditionally cancellable by the bank.

Purchased Credit Deteriorated (“PCD”) Financial Assets

The Company has purchased financial assets, none of which were credit deteriorated since origination, at the time of purchase. The Company does not purchase any financial assets that are greater than 30 days delinquent at the time of purchase.

PCD financial assets, if any, are recorded at the amount paid. An ACL for PCD financial assets will be determined using the same methodology as other financial assets. The initial ACL determined on a collective basis is allocated to individual financial assets. The sum of the financial asset’s purchase price and the ACL becomes its initial amortized cost. The difference between the initial amortized costs basis and the par value of the financial asset is a noncredit discount or premium, which is amortized into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the ACL are recorded through the provision for credit losses.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2020

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the incurred loss methodology (Allowance for Loan and Leases Losses or "ALLL") with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and HTM debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842 on leases. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to accounting for AFS debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than a write-down on AFS debt securities if management intends to sell or believes that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of the amortized cost basis.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. Results for the reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings (or a net increase to accumulated deficit) of $3.2 million as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASU 2016-13. The transition adjustment

includes increases of $3.6 million to the ACL for loans and $0.7 million to other liabilities, which includes the reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures, offset by a $1.1 million increase to other assets for the related impact to net deferred tax assets.

The following table illustrates the impact of ASC 326:

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. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective January 1, 2020. ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

Impact of Other Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements on Future Filings

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.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)." This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is in the process of evaluating the provisions of this ASU and its effects on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company has evaluated its AFS investment securities that are in an unrealized loss position and has determined that the unrealized losses on the Company's investment securities are unrelated to credit quality and are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and volatility in the credit and financial markets since purchase. Investment securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated on at least a quarterly basis, and include evaluating the changes in the investment securities' ratings issued by rating agencies and changes in the financial condition of the issuer. For mortgage-related securities, delinquency and loss information with respect to the underlying collateral, changes in levels of subordination for the Company's particular position within the repayment structure, and remaining credit enhancement as compared to projected credit losses of the security are also evaluated. All of the investment securities in an unrealized loss position continue to be rated investment grade by one or more major rating agencies. Because we have no intent to sell securities in an unrealized loss position and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell such securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company has not recorded an ACL and unrealized losses on these securities and have not been recognized into income.

Visa and MasterCard Class B Common Stock

As of March 31, 2020, 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.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") included in nonperforming assets at March 31, 2020 consisted of one Hawaii residential mortgage loan with a principal balance of $0.3 million. There were $7.3 million of TDRs still accruing interest at March 31, 2020, none of which were more than 90 days delinquent. At December 31, 2019, there were $7.5 million of TDRs still accruing interest, none of which were more than 90 days delinquent.

The Company offers various types of concessions when modifying a loan. Concessions made to the original contractual terms of the loan typically consists of the deferral of interest and/or principal payments due to deterioration in the borrowers' financial condition. In these cases, the principal balance on the TDR had matured and/or was in default at the time of restructure, and there are no commitments to lend additional funds to the borrower.

As discussed in Note 1 to these financial statements, the CARES Act provided banks an option to elect to not account for certain loan modifications related to COVID-19 as TDRs as long as the borrowers were not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. The TDRs disclosed above were not related to COVID-19 modifications. The Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $65 million resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic that were not classified as a TDR at March 31, 2020.

No loans were modified in a TDR during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

No loans were modified as a TDR within the previous twelve months that subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

We had no commitments on TDRs during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans 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 individually by classifying the loans by credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk rating of loans. Loans not meeting the following criteria that are analyzed individually as part of the described process are considered to be pass-rated loans.

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.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of the Company's loans by class, credit quality indicator and origination year as of March 31, 2020. Revolving loans converted to term as of and during the three months ended March 31, 2020 were not material to the total loan portfolio.

The components of the Company's investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries were as follows:


(dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Investments in low income housing tax credit partnerships	$	14,974	$	15,322
Investments in common securities of statutory trusts	1,547		1,547
Investments in affiliates	146		192
Other	54		54
Total	$	16,721	$	17,115

The Company invests in low-income housing tax credit ("LIHTC") partnerships. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $11.0 million and $11.5 million, respectively, in unfunded commitments related to the LIHTC partnerships. The expected payments for the unfunded commitments as of March 31, 2020 for the remainder of fiscal year 2020, the next five succeeding fiscal years and all years thereafter are as follows (dollars in thousands):


Year Ending December 31,
2020 (remainder)	$	6,452
2021	1,494
2022	3,010
2023	10
2024	26
2025	6
Thereafter	42
Total unfunded commitments	$	11,040

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 months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019:


(dollars in thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020		Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Proportional amortization method:

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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 March 31, 2020, we were a party to interest rate lock and forward sale commitments on $4.2 million and $8.1 million of mortgage loans, respectively.

The following table presents the location of all assets and liabilities associated with our derivative instruments within the consolidated balance sheets:

Risk Participation Agreement

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into a credit risk participation agreement ("RPA") with a financial institution counterparty for an interest rate swap related to a loan which we were a participant in. The risk participation agreement entered into by us as a participant bank provides credit protection to the financial institution counterparty should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with that financial institution. The fair value of the exposure related to the RPA was not material to the consolidated financial statements at March 31, 2020.

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 $1.87 billion line of credit as of March 31, 2020, compared to $1.84 billion at December 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020, $1.41 billion was undrawn under this arrangement, compared to $1.57 billion at December 31, 2019. Short-term borrowings under this arrangement totaled $222.0 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $150.0 million at December 31, 2019. Letters of credit under this arrangement that are used to collateralize certain government deposits totaled $187.4 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $78.9 million at December 31, 2019. Long-term borrowings under this arrangement totaled $50.0 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. FHLB advances and standby letters of credit available at March 31, 2020 were secured by certain real estate loans with a carrying value of $2.51 billion in accordance with the collateral provisions of the Advances, Security and Deposit Agreement with the FHLB.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our bank had additional unused borrowings available at the Federal Reserve discount window of $60.3 million and $65.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, certain commercial and commercial real estate loans with a carrying value totaling $125.2 million and $126.1 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.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had the following junior subordinated debentures outstanding, which is recorded in long-term debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheets:

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.

10. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The following presents the Company's other operating income, segregated by revenue streams that are in-scope and out-of-scope of ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

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 include any short term leases in the calculation of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. 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 uses the collateralized interest rate that the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term to estimate the Company’s lease liability.

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


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in thousands)	2020			2019

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. As of March 31, 2020, the weighted average discount rate used in the valuation of loans was 4.63%. 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.

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. As of March 31, 2020, the weighted average discount rate used in the valuation of time deposits was 0.52%. 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.

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.

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.

There were no transfers of financial assets and liabilities into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

The following tables present the fair value of assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 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 $11.6 million and $11.3 million at March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, 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 March 31, 2020, the weighted average discount rate utilized was 3.25% compared to 4.71% at March 31, 2019 and 4.08% at December 31, 2019, 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. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Management, after consultation with our legal counsel, believes the ultimate disposition of those matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act was signed into law. It contains substantial tax and spending provisions intended to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act included an allocation of $349 billion for loans to be issued by financial institutions through the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). This program is known as the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). PPP loans are forgivable, in whole or in part, if the proceeds are used for payroll and other permitted purposes in accordance with the requirements of the PPP. These loans carry a fixed rate of 1.00% and a term of two years, if not forgiven, in whole or in part. Payments are deferred for the first six months of the loan. The loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. The SBA pays the originating bank a processing fee ranging from 1% to 5%, based on the size of the loan. From April 3, 2020, the date the SBA began accepting submissions for the initial round of PPP loans through April 16, 2020, the date the SBA reached the limit of funds available to disburse under the initial round of the program, the Company received approval from the SBA on over 4,100 loans totaling approximately $475 million. As the initial $349 billion allotted for PPP loans ran out in less than two weeks, an additional $310 billion was added to the program. From April 27, 2020, the date the SBA began accepting submissions for the second round of PPP loans through April 30, 2020, the Company received approval from the SBA on over 1,500 loans totaling approximately $66 million. Certain PPP loans approved by the SBA may be cancelled or withdrawn prior to closing and funding. Although the Company believes that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven by the SBA in accordance with the terms of the program, there could be risks and liability to the Company associated with participation in the program that cannot be determined at this time.

In April 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, (“the agencies”) issued a revised interagency statement encouraging financial institutions to work with customers affected by COVID-19 and providing additional information regarding loan modifications. The revised interagency statement clarifies the interaction between the interagency statement issued on March 22, 2020 and the temporary relief provided by Section 4013 of the CARES Act. Section 4013 allows financial institutions to suspend the requirements to classify certain loan modifications as TDRs. The revised statement also provides supervisory interpretations on past due and nonaccrual regulatory reporting of loan modification programs and regulatory capital. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is providing 3-month principal and interest payment deferrals for its residential mortgage and consumer customers. The Company is also deferring either the full loan payment or the principal component of the loan payment for 3 to 6 months for its commercial real estate and commercial and industrial customers on a case-by-case basis depending on need. The Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $65 million through March 31, 2020. As of April 30, 2020, the Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $453 million, which includes the loans deferred during the first quarter of 2020, and is approximately 10% of the Company’s total loan portfolio. In accordance with the revised interagency guidance issued in April 2020, these short-term deferrals are not presently considered TDRs and at this time interest has continued to accrue. Collectibility of the accrued interest on deferred loans is uncertain and the Company may need to reverse the accrued interest which may negatively impact interest income in future periods.

Additional loan modifications to capitalize interest and/or extend loan terms may also be necessary. The Company anticipates increased requests for loan deferrals in the second quarter of 2020.

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 ,13 of which are temporarily closed to protect the health and well-being of the Company's employees and customers from the novel coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19"), and 75 ATMs located throughout the state of Hawaii as of March 31, 2020. 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 real estate loans, 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, 2019 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 25, 2020, including the

“Risk Factors” set forth therein.

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. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the financial statements.

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.

The Company identified a significant accounting policy which involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity in making certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2019, the significant accounting policy which we believed to be the most critical in preparing our consolidated financial statements is the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses. This is further described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which created material changes to the Company’s existing critical accounting policy that existed at December 31, 2019. Effective January 1, 2020 through March 31, 2020, the significant accounting policy which we believe to be the most critical in preparing our consolidated financial statements is the determination of the allowance for credit losses on loans.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

Management considers the policies related to the allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans as the most critical to the financial statement presentation. The total ACL on loans includes activity related to allowances calculated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses". The ACL is established through the provision for credit losses charged to current earnings. The amount maintained in the ACL reflects management’s continuing evaluation of the estimated loan losses expected to be recognized over the life of the loans in our loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The ACL is comprised of specific reserves assigned to certain loans that don’t share general risk characteristics and general reserves on pools of loans that do share general risk characteristics. Factors contributing to the determination of specific reserves include the creditworthiness of the borrower, and more specifically, changes in the expected future receipt of principal and interest payments and/or in the value of pledged collateral. A reserve is recorded when the carrying amount of the loan

exceeds the discounted estimated cash flows using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. For purposes of establishing the general reserve, we stratify the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics and calculate the net amount expected to be collected over the life of the loans to estimate the expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. The Company’s methodologies for estimating the ACL consider available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Refer to Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements in this report for further discussion of the risk factors considered by management in establishing the ACL.

Financial Summary

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $8.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.0 million, or $0.55 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” ("CECL") and, as a result, recorded increases of $3.6 million to the allowance for credit losses on loans and $0.7 million to the reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures, included in other liabilities. The transition adjustments recorded on January 1, 2020 were offset to retained earnings of $3.2 million and net deferred tax assets of $1.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded total credit loss expense under ASC 326, which includes the provisions for credit losses and off-balance sheet credit exposures, of $11.1 million which impacted our first quarter operating results.

The following table presents annualized returns on average assets and average shareholders' equity, and basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated. Returns on average assets and average shareholders' equity are annualized based on a 30/360 day convention.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19") has caused significant disruption in the local, national and global economies and financial markets. The pandemic has resulted in temporary closures of many businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in many states and communities. Continuation and further spread of COVID-19 could cause additional quarantines, shutdowns, reductions in business activity and financial transactions, labor shortages, supply chain interruptions and overall economic and financial market instability.

In response to the anticipated economic effects of COVID-19, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "FRB") has taken a number of actions that have significantly affected the financial markets in the United States, including actions intended to result in substantial decreases in market interest rates. On March 3, 2020, the 10-year Treasury yield fell below 1.00% for the first time, and the FRB reduced the target federal funds range by 50 basis points to 1.00% to 1.25%. On March 15, 2020, the FRB further reduced the target federal funds range by 100 basis points to 0% to 0.25% and announced a $700 billion quantitative easing program in response to the expected economic downturn caused by COVID-19. On March 22, 2020, the FRB announced that it would continue its quantitative easing program in amounts necessary to support the smooth functioning of markets for Treasury securities and agency MBS. We expect that these reductions in interest rates, among other actions of the FRB and the Federal government generally, especially if prolonged, could adversely affect our net interest income, margins and profitability.

In late March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law as an over $2 trillion economic stimulus package. The CARES Act is intended to prevent a severe economic downturn through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors.

On March 4, 2020, Hawaii Governor David Ige declared a state of emergency allowing Hawaii to use funds to act quickly in containing the spread of the coronavirus when an outbreak occurs in the islands. The measure allows for “funding flexibility” to buy supplies and equipment and gives the governor authority to suspend any laws that may impede emergency functions.

On March 16, 2020, Governor Ige issued a supplemental emergency proclamation ordering all residents to heed any orders and guidance of federal and state public health officials, including but not limited to, the imposition of social distancing measures, to control the spread of COVID-19.

On March 21, 2020, Governor Ige issued a second supplemental proclamation. Beginning March 26, 2020, all individuals, both residents and visitors, arriving or returning to the State of Hawaii will be subject to a mandatory 14-day self-quarantine. The mandate -- the first such action in the nation -- applies to all arrivals at state airports from the continental U.S. and international destinations and extends to other private and commercial aircrafts.

On March 23, 2020, Governor Ige issued a third supplemental proclamation - stay-at-home order - beginning March 25, 2020 through April 30, 2020. All persons within the State of Hawaii are ordered to stay at home or in their place of residence, such as hotels or condominiums. Individuals may leave only for essential activities or to engage in essential businesses and operations. On April 25, 2020, Governor Ige extended the state's stay-at-home order through May 31, 2020. As of April 27, 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported there were 607 cases and 16 COVID-19-related deaths in Hawaii.

On March 24, 2020, in response to Governor Ige's statewide restrictions on the movements of Hawaii residents and visitors to combat the potential spread of COVID-19 in Hawaii, the Company announced it would temporarily close 13 branch locations and will keep 22 branches open and fully operational. The decision to temporarily close the branches was made to protect the health and well-being of the Company's employees and customers. Some branches, such as the in-store branches with limited floor space, made it challenging to operate with social distancing in mind. The staff from the temporarily closed branches have been redeployed to work at the remaining branches, assist other areas of the bank or make customer telephone calls. The majority of our support staff, even at the executive level, have started working remotely on a full-time or rotating basis. The Company believes the actions it has taken to date, will allow it to meet the needs of its customers and community while ensuring the safety of all employees. In addition, to protect its employees as well as to manage its expenses, the Company has implemented internal policies to temporarily suspend all business travel, large group meetings, meals and entertainment. The Company has also reevaluated or postponed certain consulting projects. Hiring of new employees is on an exception basis, and the Company is evaluating its compensation plans.

Our operations, like those of other financial institutions that operate in our market, are significantly influenced by economic conditions in Hawaii, including the strength of the real estate market and the tourism industry. The COVID-19 pandemic and the mandatory 14-day self quarantine has resulted in a significant decline in tourism to the state of Hawaii, with daily visitors to Hawaii down 98% from the same year-ago period. Hawaii's unemployment rate has gone from one of the best in the nation to one of the worst at approximately 37%. As a result, many customers and businesses across the state have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic which could lead to additional provisions for credit losses and lower interest and fee income, which if significant, could have a material impact to our financial statements.

COVID-19 may also materially disrupt banking and other financial activity generally and in Hawaii where the Bank operates. This may result in a decline in customer demand for our products and services, including loans and deposits which could negatively impact our liquidity position and our growth strategy. Any one or more of these developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, consolidated financial condition, and consolidated results of operations.

Financial position and results of operations

The disruptions in the economy has impaired and will continue to impair the ability of some of our borrowers to make their monthly loan payments, which could result in significant increases in delinquencies, defaults, foreclosures and declining collateral values. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic could result in the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios and increase our allowance for credit losses, particularly as businesses remain closed and as more customers are expected to draw on their lines of credit or seek additional loans to help finance their businesses. Similarly, because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize an allowance for credit losses in future periods on the securities we hold as well as reductions in other comprehensive income. At this time, the Company is unable to project the probability and materiality of such credit losses and the impact its financial position and results of operation.

The Company’s interest income could also be reduced due to COVID-19. Through guidance from regulatory agencies, the Company is prudently working with its borrowers impacted by COVID-19 to defer payments, interest, and fees. During the first quarter, the Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $65 million. Accrued interest

receivable on these deferred loans totaled $0.2 million as of March 31, 2020. As of April 30, 2020, the Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $453 million, which includes the loans deferred during the first quarter of 2020. The Company is continuing to grant loan deferrals in the second quarter and therefore expects that the accrued interest receivable balance on the deferred loans will significantly increase. While interest and fees will still accrue during the deferral period under GAAP, should the Company later determine that collection of payments is not expected and eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, accrued and unpaid interest income and fees will need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. At this time, the Company is unable to project the probability and materiality of such an impact to net income.

The Company’s fee income could be reduced due to COVID-19. To support our customers during this difficult time, we have waived non-CPB ATM fees and early withdrawal fees on our time deposits. At this time, these reductions in fees are temporary and the Company does not expect it to have a material impact to net income.

Liquidity and capital

Through our past experience during the Great Recession in the late 2000s, we have developed robust liquidity and capital stress tests and comprehensive liquidity and capital contingency plans. Our liquidity and capital positions remain strong. The Company currently believes that it has sufficient liquidity and capital to withstand an economic recession brought about by COVID-19. However the Company's regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by significant credit losses and lower interest income and fees. The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from its subsidiary bank to service its debt. If the Company’s capital deteriorates such that its subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to it for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to service its debt or pay dividends to its shareholders.

The Company’s liquidity will be impacted by loan principal and interest payment deferrals that are being granted for certain customers due to COVID-19. Cash flow from loan payments will be reduced due to the deferrals which are being granted for 3 to 6 months. The Company anticipates increased requests for loans deferrals in the second quarter of 2020. Additionally, liquidity could be adversely impacted if customers withdraw significant deposit balances due to COVID-19 concerns.

In the case of loans serviced by the Company for certain third parties, including those under the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. ("FHLMC") programs, the Company is required to advance to the owners the payment of principal and interest on a scheduled basis even when such payment was not collected from the borrower due to payment forbearance granted or payment delinquency. Such amounts advanced are recorded as a receivable by the Company and are expected to be collected from the borrower and/or government agencies (FNMA or FHLMC).

The Company maintains access to multiple sources of liquidity. Wholesale funding markets have remained open to us, but rates for short term funding have recently been volatile. The collateral that is pledged for wholesale funding lines, could lose value and may result in less funding availability. The Company will also have access to the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”), which is an extension of credit to eligible financial institutions that originate Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans that takes the PPP loans as collateral at face value. If funding costs are elevated for an extended period of time, it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s net interest margin. If an extended recession caused large numbers of the Company’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Company might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.

In March 2020, we decided to suspend our share repurchase program for the time being until we know more about the extent the pandemic will have on the economy and our business.

Asset valuation

The Company currently does not expect COVID-19 to affect its ability to account timely for the assets on its balance sheet; however, this could change in future periods. While certain valuation assumptions and judgments will change to account for pandemic-related circumstances such as widening credit spreads, the Company does not anticipate significant changes in methodology used to determine the fair value of assets measured in accordance with GAAP.

The Company has a significant real estate loan portfolio. Due to COVID-19, the real estate loan collateral used to secure such loans could experience a reduction in value. Further, the ability for the Company to obtain appraisals of property value could be difficult during COVID-19. This may lead to credit impairments and asset write-downs.

Processes, controls and business continuity plan

The Company's Business Continuity Plan includes a Pandemic Preparedness Plan which it successfully activated in early March 2020. The Company’s remote workforce plan has been rolled out with an overall smooth transition. The Company already had Virtual Private Network ("VPN") technology capability, and during the first quarter of 2020, expanded VPN access to over 70% of its employees. In addition to VPN, the Company is well-setup with latest technologies that enable our operations to continue efficiently. The Company is using collaboration tools and several other cloud-based software programs. For its customers, the Company continues to offer its current online and mobile banking tools, and is making progress on its new digital offerings as part of its RISE2020 initiative.

The Company may incur additional cost related to its continued deployment of the remote workforce plan, but does not expect such costs to be material at this point in time. A remote workforce plan potentially could introduce operational or internal control challenges and risks, including resource constraints. The Company is closely monitoring operations to mitigate those risks, and currently does not anticipate significant challenges to its ability to maintain its systems and internal controls in light of the measures the Company has taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19. However, should there be significant changes to government orders, the health and well-being of our workforce, or to our critical systems and vendors, there could be an adverse impact on our operations.

Lending operations and accommodations to borrowers

To support its customers during this difficult time, the Company has moved quickly to put in place a number of COVID-19 relief programs for its consumer and business customers affected by the pandemic. For its customers, the Company is offering an employment disruption loan as well as consumer, commercial, commercial mortgage, and residential mortgage payment deferral programs. In addition, as previously mentioned, we have waived non-CPB ATM fees and early withdrawal fees on our time deposits and increased spending cap limits on debit cards and mobile deposit limits to $10,000 daily.

The bank is a Small Business Administration ("SBA") approved lender and is actively participating in assisting customers with loan applications for the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, which was part of the CARES Act. PPP loans have a two-year term and earn interest at 1%. The SBA will pay the originating bank a processing fee ranging from 1% to 5%, based on the size of the loan, which the Company will recognize over the life of the loan. The Company has seen tremendous interest in the PPP. From April 3, 2020, the date the SBA began accepting submissions for the initial round of PPP loans through April 16, 2020, the date the SBA reached the limit of funds available to disburse under the initial round of the program, the Company received approval from the SBA on over 4,100 loans totaling approximately $475 million. From April 27, 2020, the date the SBA began accepting submissions for the second round of PPP loans through April 30, 2020, the Company received approval from the SBA on over 1,500 loans totaling approximately $66 million. Certain PPP loans approved by the SBA may be cancelled or withdrawn prior to closing and funding. The Company began funding PPP loans in April 2020. Although the Company believes that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven by the SBA in accordance with the terms of the program, there could be risks and liability by the Company that cannot be determined at this time.

With the significant increase in volume of PPP loan requests, the Company has redeployed staff to handle and assist with loan processing. Additionally, the Company has brought on some outside resources to assist with the PPP.

The Company is staying in close contact with its customers and has increased its client outreach efforts. The Company’s commercial loan officers are having calls with their key clients as frequently as daily. The Company is monitoring its client’s financial health during this challenging time and is providing guidance to help them through the pandemic. Further, the Company believes it is prudently making loan modifications for certain borrowers to allow deferral of loan principal and/or interest for a short-term period.

The Company is providing 3-month principal and interest payment deferrals for its residential mortgage and consumer customers. The Company is deferring either the full loan payment or the principal component of the loan payment for 3 to 6 months for its commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, and other consumer loan customers on a case-by-case basis depending on need. The Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $65 million through March 31, 2020. As of April 30, 2020, the Company executed loan deferrals on outstanding balances of approximately $453 million, which includes the loans deferred during the first quarter of 2020, and is approximately 10% of the Company’s total loan portfolio. In accordance with the revised interagency guidance issued in April 2020 and Section 4013 of the CARES Act, these short-term deferrals are not presently considered TDRs and at this time interest has continued to accrue. Collectibility of the accrued interest on deferred loans is uncertain and the Company may need to reverse the accrued interest which may negatively impact interest income in future periods. Additional loan modifications to capitalize interest and/or extend loan terms may also be necessary. The Company anticipates increased requests for loan deferrals through the second quarter of 2020.

Credit

Following the recovery from the Great Recession, the Company believes it has implemented a disciplined approach to credit that includes tighter underwriting standards with a focus on making quality loans and maintaining a diversified loan portfolio. The Company’s loan portfolio today is diversified by product and by industry.

The Company expects that the primary industries that we lend to that will likely experience impact from the pandemic include accommodation and food-service, retail trade, wholesale trade, manufacturing and healthcare. Many of the loans in these industries are to well-established businesses that have weathered through the last downturn. Secondary industries that may also experience impact include real estate management and other leasing, transportation, professional and administrative, and other industries. The Company also anticipates adverse impact on its consumer portfolio, and is actively granting 90-day payment deferrals to these borrowers.

In the final week of March, the Company closely reviewed its commercial loan portfolio and reached out to its customers to determine the initial impact, if any, of COVID-19 on their businesses. Through this process, the Company identified borrowers that were likely to experience financial difficulty and proactively downgraded approximately $65 million in loans from pass to special mention. As part of its assessment for the downgrade, the Company reviewed customer management and actions taken such as closing businesses and reducing expenses, monthly cash burn and access to cash liquidity and capital, and the overall ability to weather through the pandemic in the near term. The Company believes that it is still too early to reach any firm conclusions and that the downgrade assessments did not include the expected positive impact from Federal subsidy programs. The Company is proactively working with its customers, including those that have already applied and have been approved for a PPP loan. Furthermore, the Company has also provided assistance with short-term payment deferrals, as necessary.

Economic forecasts are utilized to determine the Company’s allowance for credit losses. With deteriorating economic conditions due to COVID-19 and the potential for a global recession, it is expected that economic forecasts utilized in upcoming interim financial periods will include substantial economic deterioration. This may result in the Company recognizing additional provisions for credit losses which will negatively impact net income.

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, robust tourism and rising personal income; while an unfavorable business environment is characterized by the reverse.

Hawaii tourism started the year strong with solid growth in visitor arrivals and spending in the first two months of 2020. However, the COVID-19 outbreak has impacted Hawaii’s tourism significantly since late February. Total visitor arrivals in the two months ended February 29, 2020, which includes an additional day associated with leap year, increased 5.5% from the same prior year period. Total visitor expenditures in the two months ended February 29, 2020 increased by 4.8% from the same prior year period. The mandated 14-day self-quarantine for arriving visitors and residents began on March 26, 2020. Total arrivals on that day were down to 1,580 from a historical daily average of 30,000 passengers during last March. During the first week of April, total visitors were down approximately 98% from the same year-ago period.

A few airlines have announced temporary suspension of flights to international destinations. Many hotels throughout the state have temporarily closed. Many shopping centers have temporarily closed or have significantly reduced hours. Restaurants, bars and nightclubs are also closed for indoor service. Take-out, curbside pick-up and delivery are still allowed.

Unemployment continues to soar. In the week ended April 18, 2020, 4.4 million Americans filed claims for unemployment. This was the fifth consecutive week with over 3 million in claims for unemployment. During that time, 26.5 million Americans have filed jobless claims. Through March 31, 2020, Hawaii received more than 160,000 unemployment claims. The number of unemployment claims in Hawaii has grown to more than 250,000 through April 22, 2020.

Oahu home sales started the year strong with healthy year-over-year increases in closed sales of single-family homes and condominiums. According to the latest data available from the Honolulu Board of Realtors, Oahu unit sales volume increased by 11.6% for single-family homes and were stable for condominiums for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same time period last year. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the median sales price for single-family homes on Oahu was $780,000, and remained unchanged from the same prior year period. The median sales price for condominiums on

Oahu for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $430,000, representing an increase of 4.6% from $411,250 in the same prior year period. While the numbers appear to be strong, many of the sales which closed in March were in escrow at least 30 days before the State's stay-at-home order. The impact of COVID-19 on the housing market remains to be seen.

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. During 2019, the outsourcing of the Company's residential mortgage loan servicing, the launch of its new website under the cpb.bank domain name and the implementation of its end-to-end commercial loan origination system were completed. Despite several challenges resulting from the impact of COVID-19, the Company will continue the revitalization of its building headquarters. Digital strategies will continue to push forward. The Company may postpone other initiatives such as branch modernization for the remaining branch network. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company opened its concept branch providing its customers a glimpse into the future of Central Pacific Bank. The rollout of our new ATMs has begun. The development of the Company's new online and mobile banking platforms is progressing, with a pilot of the new platforms scheduled for June 2020. Digital technology is even more critical to our business during crises like the current pandemic and will remain a high priority strategy for our future.

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 months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. A comparison of net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis ("net interest income") for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 is set forth below. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to: (i) changes in volume and (ii) changes in rates. The change in volume is calculated as change in average balance, multiplied by prior period average yield/rate. The change in rate is calculated as change in average yield/rate, multiplied by current period volume. The change in interest income not solely due to change in volume or change in rate has been allocated proportionately to change in volume and change in average yield/rate.

Net interest income (expressed on a taxable-equivalent basis) was $48.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, representing an increase of 5.9% from $45.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily attributable to loan growth funded by runoff of the investment securities portfolio and an increase in core deposits, combined with lower rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in yields earned on interest-earning assets. The decreases in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities were primarily attributable to the five rate cuts by the Federal Reserve from August 2019 through March 2020.

Interest Income

Taxable-equivalent interest income was $54.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, representing an increase of 1.2% from $53.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to a $378.6 million increase in average loans compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, accounting for approximately $4.5 million of the increase in interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average yields earned on loans during the three months ended March 31, 2020 of 17 bp, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, which decreased interest income by approximately $2.1 million. In addition, average investment securities declined by $221.9 million, which decreased interest income by approximately $1.5 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $6.0 million, representing a decrease of 25.5% from $8.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to declines in rates paid on time deposits $100,000 and over, short-term borrowings and long-term debt of 56 bp, 117 bp and 61 bp, respectively, which decreased interest expense by approximately $1.2 million, $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. In addition, average time deposits $100,000 and over declined by $136.5 million resulting in a decrease in interest expense of approximately $0.7 million. 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.

Net Interest Margin

Our net interest margin of 3.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased by 9 bp from 3.34% in the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The average rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, which declined by 24 bp in the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same prior year period, outpaced the decline in average yields earned on our interest-earning assets, which declined by 9 bp in the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same prior year period.

Provision for Credit Losses

Our provision for credit losses on loans under ASC 326 was $9.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to an expense of $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 under previous GAAP.

In addition, we recorded a provision for off-balance sheet credit exposures of $1.8 million, included in other operating expense, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to a provision of $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 under previous GAAP.

We did not record a provision for credit losses on investment securities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Our net charge-offs were $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net charge-offs of $1.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The disruptions in the economy resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic has impaired and will continue to impair the ability of some of our borrowers to make their monthly loan payments, which could result in significant increases in delinquencies, defaults, foreclosures and declining collateral values. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic could result in the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios and increase our ACL, particularly as businesses remain closed and as more customers are expected to draw on their lines of credit or seek additional loans to help finance their businesses. Similarly, because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize an allowance for credit losses in future periods on the securities we hold as well as reductions in other comprehensive income. At this time, the Company is unable to project the probability and materiality of such credit losses and the impact its financial position and results of operation.

Note: Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, total other operating income of $8.9 million decreased by $2.8 million, or 23.9%, from $11.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The decrease from the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a $2.6 million gain on the sale of MasterCard Class B common stock recorded in the year-ago quarter, combined with lower mortgage banking income of $1.2 million and lower income from bank-owned life insurance of $1.0 million in the current quarter. The lower mortgage banking income was primarily attributable to higher amortization of mortgage servicing rights of $1.1 million, primarily attributable to the decline in market interest rates. The lower income from bank-owned life insurance was primarily attributable to volatility in the equity markets during the quarter. This included a loss on corporate-owned life insurance, which had an offsetting decrease in the Company's employee deferred compensation expense due to the market movements during the quarter. These decreases were partially offset by $1.3 million in income related to an interest rate swap (included in other service charges and fees).

Total other operating expense	$	36,240	$	34,348	$	1,892	5.5	%

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, total other operating expense was $36.2 million and increased by $1.9 million, or 5.5%, from $34.3 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to a higher provision for off-balance sheet credit exposures of $1.6 million under ASC 326, combined with higher salaries and employee benefits of $0.5 million and higher legal and professional services of $0.5 million, primarily attributable to our RISE2020 initiative. These increases were partially offset by a $1.5 million credit related to the fair value of our directors' deferred compensation obligation recorded in the current quarter, compared to a $0.4 million expense recorded in the year-ago quarter. The variance is primarily attributable to volatility in the equity markets. In addition, FDIC insurance expense includes a $0.4 million assessment credit received in the current quarter.

A key measure of operating efficiency tracked by management is the efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing total other operating expense by total pre-provision 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:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in thousands)	2020			2019
Total other operating expense	$	36,240		$	34,348

Net interest income	$	47,830		$	45,113
Total other operating income	8,886			11,673
Total revenue before provision for credit losses	$	56,716		$	56,786

Efficiency ratio	63.90		%	60.49		%

Our efficiency ratio increased to 63.90% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 60.49% in the year-ago quarter. The efficiency ratio in the year-ago quarter was positively impacted by the aforementioned $2.6 million gain on sale of MasterCard stock.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $5.1 million in the year-ago quarter. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 25.3%, compared to 24.2% in the year-ago quarter.

The valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets ("DTA") totaled $3.4 million at March 31, 2020 and $3.4 million at December 31, 2019, of which $3.2 million and $3.2 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 $0.2 million and $0.2 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 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 $16.9 million at March 31, 2020, compared to a net DTA of $16.5 million as of December 31, 2019, and is included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets.

Financial Condition

Total assets at March 31, 2020 of $6.11 billion increased by $95.9 million from $6.01 billion at December 31, 2019.

Investment Securities

Investment securities of $1.19 billion at March 31, 2020 increased by $56.9 million, or 5.0%, from December 31, 2019. The increase reflects $96.1 million in net purchases and a $13.9 million increase in the market valuation on the available-for-sale portfolio, partially offset by $52.9 million in principal runoff.

Loans, net of deferred costs, of $4.51 billion at March 31, 2020 increased by $62.5 million, or 1.4%, from December 31, 2019. The increase reflects net increases in the following loan portfolios: residential mortgage of $32.7 million, commercial mortgage of $15.7 million, home equity of $14.0 million, commercial, financial and agricultural of $5.0 million and construction of $4.8 million. These increases were partially offset by a net decrease in the consumer portfolio of $9.7 million.

The Hawaii loan portfolio increased by $54.3 million, or 1.4%, from December 31, 2019. The increase reflects net increases in the following loan portfolios: residential mortgage of $32.7 million, home equity of $14.0 million, commercial mortgage of $8.1 million and construction of $4.8 million, partially offset by a net decrease in the consumer portfolio of $5.5 million. The increases in the portfolios were primarily due to an increased demand from both new and existing customers.

The U.S. Mainland loan portfolio increased by $8.2 million, or 1.6% from December 31, 2019. The net increase was primarily attributable to net increases in the commercial mortgage loan portfolio of $7.6 million and commercial, financial and agricultural loan portfolio of $4.8 million, partially offset by a net decrease in the consumer loan portfolio of $4.2 million.

In the first quarter of 2020, we purchased U.S. Mainland unsecured consumer loans totaling $22.3 million, which reflected a net discount of $0.6 million from the $23.0 million outstanding balance. At the time of purchase, the unsecured consumer loans had a weighted average remaining term of 87 months and a weighted average yield, net of servicing costs, of 5.03%.

In 2019, we purchased an auto loan portfolio totaling $30.2 million, which included a $0.6 million premium over the $29.6 million outstanding balance. At the time of purchase, the auto loans had a weighted average remaining term of 56 months and a weighted average yield, net of servicing costs, of 6.15%. In 2019, we also purchased unsecured consumer loan portfolios totaling $109.9 million which included a $2.3 million discount to the $112.2 million outstanding balance. At the time of purchase, the unsecured consumer loan portfolios had a weighted average remaining term of 76 months and a weighted average yield, net of servicing costs, of 6.24%.

Our ACL at March 31, 2020 totaled $59.6 million compared to $48.0 million at December 31, 2019.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The Company recorded increases of $3.6 million to the ACL for loans and $0.7 million to the reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures, included in other liabilities, offset by a net decrease to retained earnings (or a net increase to accumulated deficit) of $3.2 million and a $1.1 million increase to other assets for the related impact to net deferred tax assets as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASU 2016-13.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $9.3 million and net charge-offs of $1.2 million. The provision reflects the incorporation of life of loan estimated losses under ASC 326 and economic forecasts that anticipate deterioration due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our ACL as a percentage of total loans increased from 1.08% at December 31, 2019 to 1.32% at March 31, 2020. The increase in our ACL as a percentage of total loans reflects the adoption of ASU 2016-13. Our ACL as a percentage of nonperforming assets decreased from 2,791% at December 31, 2019 to 1,635% at March 31, 2020.

In accordance with GAAP, loans held for sale and other real estate assets are not included in our assessment of the ACL.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock

The bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (the "FHLB"). FHLB stock of $18.1 million at March 31, 2020 increased by $3.1 million, or 20.9%, from the FHLB stock balance at December 31, 2019. 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 $5.14 billion at March 31, 2020 increased by $16.0 million from total deposits of $5.12 billion at December 31, 2019. Net increases in savings and money market deposits of $93.3 million, were partially offset by net decreases in interest-bearing demand deposits of $24.5 million, noninterest-bearing demand deposits of $20.0 million, other time deposits greater than $250,000 of $12.1 million, government time deposits of $9.7 million, other time deposits $100,000 to $250,000 of $7.5 million and time deposits less than $100,000 of $3.4 million.

Core deposits, which we define as demand deposits, savings and money market deposits, and time deposits less than $100,000, totaled $4.30 billion at March 31, 2020 and increased by $45.4 million, or 1.1, from December 31, 2019.

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 anticipated performance of our business (including the

effects of the COVID-19 pandemic) and 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 $533.8 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $528.5 million at December 31, 2019. The change in total shareholders' equity was attributable to net income of $8.3 million and other comprehensive income of $10.7 million, partially offset by the repurchase of 206,802 shares of common stock under our repurchase program, at a cost of $4.7 million and cash dividends paid of $6.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased approximately 0.7% of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

Our total shareholders' equity to total assets ratio was 8.74% at March 31, 2020, compared to 8.79% at December 31, 2019. Our book value per share was $18.99 and $18.68 at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Holding Company Capital Resources

CPF is required to act as a source of strength to the bank under the Dodd-Frank Act. CPF is obligated to pay its expenses and payments on its junior subordinated debentures which fund payments on the outstanding trust preferred securities.

CPF relies on the bank to pay dividends to fund its obligations. As of March 31, 2020, on a stand-alone basis, CPF had an available cash balance of approximately $7.7 million in order to meet its ongoing obligations.

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 March 31, 2020, the bank had Statutory Retained Earnings of $65.8 million. On April 21, 2020, 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, 2019, the Company repurchased 797,003 shares of common stock, at a cost of $22.8 million, under the Company's repurchase plan.

In January 2020, 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 $19.8 million in remaining repurchase authority. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, a total of 206,802 shares of common stock, at a cost of $4.7 million, were repurchased under the Company's stock repurchase plans. As of March 31, 2020, $26.6 million remained available for repurchase under the Company's Repurchase Plan. The Company's Repurchase Plan is subject to a one year expiration. In March 2020, the Company temporarily suspended the Repurchase Plan due to uncertainty during the current COVID-19 pandemic. We cannot

provide any assurance when or to what extent we will resume repurchases under our Repurchase Plan.

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 March 31, 2020, 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 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 2019 Form 10-K.

In March 2020, the FDIC, FRB and OCC, collectively, issued three interim final rules that impact the reporting of regulatory capital in the Call Report. The revisions include:

1.Revising the definition of eligible retained income in the capital rule;

2.Permitting banking organizations to neutralize the effects of purchasing assets through the Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility ("MMLF") on their risk-based and leverage capital ratios;

3.Providing banking organizations that implement the Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 326, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, before the end of 2020 the option to delay for two years an estimate of the CECL methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on capital, followed by a three-year transition period;

4.Allowing banking organizations to implement the final rule titled Standardized Approach for Calculating the Exposure Amount of Derivative Contracts (the "SA-CCR rule") for the first quarter of 2020, on a best efforts basis.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has elected to exercise the option to delay for two years an estimate of the CECL methodology on regulatory capital.

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 March 31, 2020 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 March 31, 2020. Net interest income is estimated assuming no balance sheet growth under a flat interest rate scenario. The net interest income sensitivity is measured as the change in net interest income in alternate interest rate scenarios as a percentage of the flat rate scenario. The alternate rate scenarios typically assume rates move up or down 100 bps in an instantaneous, parallel fashion. However, due to historically low rates stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, market rate changes in the down 100 bp scenario were limited.


Rate Change	Estimated Net Interest Income Sensitivity
+100 bp	3.08	%
-100 bp	(1.85)	%

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 maintained a $1.87 billion line of credit with the FHLB as of March 31, 2020, compared to $1.84 billion at December 31, 2019. We had $222.0 million in short-term borrowings under this arrangement at March 31, 2020, compared to $150.0 million at December 31, 2019. Letters of credit under this arrangement that are used to collateralize certain government deposits totaled $187.4 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $78.9 million at December 31, 2019. Long-term borrowings under this arrangement totaled $50.0 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. FHLB advances and standby letters of credit available at March 31, 2020 were secured by certain real estate loans with a carrying value of $2.51 billion in accordance with the collateral provisions of the Advances, Security and Deposit Agreement with the FHLB. At March 31, 2020, $1.41 billion was undrawn under this arrangement, compared to $1.57 billion at December 31, 2019.

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, 2019. There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations since December 31, 2019.

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 March 31, 2020 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

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the incurred loss methodology (Allowance for Loan and Leases Losses or "ALLL") with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The Company designed new controls and modified existing controls as part of its adoption. These additional controls over financial reporting included controls over model creation and design, model governance, assumptions, and expanded controls over loan level data. There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s 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, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020, except as described below.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the State of Hawaii and our business. The ultimate impact on our business and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets, and increased unemployment levels. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in temporary closures of many businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in many states and communities. Our operations, like those of other financial institutions that operate in our market, are significantly influenced by economic conditions in Hawaii, including the strength of the real estate market and the tourism industry. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an extreme decline in tourism to the state of Hawaii. As a result, the demand for our products and services has been, and may continue to be, impacted. In addition, material adverse effects on

our business may include all or a combination of valuation impairments on our investments, loans, mortgage servicing

rights, deferred tax assets or counter-party risk derivatives.

Furthermore, the pandemic could influence the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios and increase our allowance for credit losses, particularly as businesses remain closed and as more customers are expected to draw on their lines of credit or seek additional loans to help finance their businesses. Similarly, because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize an allowance for credit losses in future periods on the securities we hold as well as reductions in other comprehensive income. We have already temporarily closed certain of our branches and offices in response to the pandemic and our business operations may be further disrupted if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions. In response to the pandemic, we are offering fee waivers, payment deferrals, and other expanded assistance for mortgage, business and personal lending customers.

We and our customers have been, and will continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to negatively impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company repurchased 206,802 shares of common stock, at an aggregate cost of $4.7 million, under the Company's stock repurchase plans. As of March 31, 2020, a total of $26.6 million remained available for repurchase under the Company's Repurchase Plan. In March 2020, the Company temporarily suspended the Repurchase Plan due to uncertainty during the current COVID-19 pandemic. We cannot provide any assurance as to when or if we will

recommence our Repurchase Plan.
