Financial Notes
(Unaudited)

(1)      The Condensed Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2004, the Condensed
         Statements of Income and the Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for the
         quarter ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 are unaudited. Because of the
         nature of the Company's operations, the results for interim periods are
         not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. In
         the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary for the
         fair presentation of interim period results have been included in the
         interim financial statements.

(2)      The 2004 and 2003  estimated  effective  income tax rate differs from
         the statutory rate, due primarily to tax credits.

(3)      Commitments and Contingencies: Commitments, excluding operating lease
         commitments, that were in effect at March 31, 2004, included the
         following (in millions):

                Vessel purchase                          (a)      $      107
                Guarantee of Hokua debt                  (b)      $       18
                Guarantee of Sea Star debt               (c)      $       11
                Guarantee of HS&TC debt                  (d)      $       15
                Standby letters of credit                (e)      $       20
                Bonds                                    (f)      $       13
                Benefit plan withdrawal obligations      (g)      $       51

         These amounts are not recorded on the Company's balance sheet and,
         based on the Company's current knowledge and with the exception of item
         (a), it is not expected that the Company or its subsidiaries will be
         called upon to advance funds under these commitments.

               (a)      During 2002, Matson Navigation Company, Inc. ("Matson")
                        entered into an agreement with Kvaerner Philadelphia
                        Shipyard Inc., to purchase two container ships.
                        The total project cost for each ship is approximately
                        $107 million.  The first ship was delivered in September
                        2003 and the second ship is expected to be delivered
                        in the third or fourth quarter of 2004.  The cost of the
                        second ship is expected to be funded with a combination
                        of cash from the Capital Construction Fund, the
                        issuance of new debt, and operations.  No significant
                        payment is required until acceptance and delivery of the
                        ship.  No obligation is recorded on the financial
                        statements because conditions necessary to record either
                        a liability or an asset have not been met.

               (b)      At March 31, 2004, A&B Properties, Inc. ("Properties")
                        had guaranteed $2.5 million of the $12 million component
                        of a $130 million construction loan agreement that was
                        entered into by Hokua Development Group LLC ("Hokua"), a
                        limited liability company in which the Company is an
                        investor. The $12 million component was used by Hokua to
                        acquire the land that is being developed. This guarantee
                        terminates upon the initial funding of the balance of
                        the construction loan prior to the termination of the
                        guarantee. Properties would be called upon to honor this
                        guarantee in the event that Hokua is unable to repay the
                        construction loan.

                        Properties also has a limited guarantee equal to the
                        lesser of $15 million or 15.5 percent of the outstanding
                        loan balance that could be triggered if the purchasers
                        of condominium apartments become entitled to rescind
                        their purchase obligations. This could occur if Hokua
                        breaches covenants contained in its sales contracts or
                        violates the Interstate Land Sales Practices Act, the
                        Hawaii Condominium Act, the Securities Act of 1933 or
                        the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

               (c)      Matson has guaranteed $11 million of the debt of Sea
                        Star Line, LLC ("Sea Star," a business in which Matson
                        holds a minority interest investment) and would be
                        required to perform under the guarantee should Sea Star
                        be unable to meet its obligations. This amount declined
                        by approximately $16 million from 2003 year-end, due to
                        an amendment, executed during the first quarter of 2004,
                        to the venture's operating agreement that reduces
                        Matson's allocation of the guarantee to 19.5 percent of
                        the outstanding balance; this is consistent with
                        Matson's ownership percentage. It is expected that the
                        guarantee will be further reduced, over time by
                        scheduled repayments of the debt by Sea Star.

               (d)      The Company guarantees up to $15  million  of a $30
                        million revolving credit line of Hawaiian Sugar &
                        Transportation Cooperative's ("HS&TC," a raw sugar
                        marketing and transportation cooperative that the
                        Company uses to market and transport its sugar and of
                        which the Company is a member).  That credit line is
                        used primarily to fund purchases of raw sugar from the
                        Hawaii growers and is fully secured by the inventory,
                        receivables and transportation assets of the
                        cooperative.  The amount that may be drawn by HS&TC
                        under the facility is limited to 95 percent of its
                        inventory value plus the lesser of 90 percent or $16
                        million of HS&TC's receivables.  The Company's guarantee
                        is limited to the lesser of $15 million or the actual
                        amounts drawn.  Although the amount drawn by HS&TC on
                        its credit line varies, as of March 31, 2004, the amount
                        drawn was $12 million.  The Company has not recorded any
                        liability for its obligation under the guarantee because
                        it believes that the likelihood of making any payment
                        is not probable.

               (e)      The Company has arranged for standby letters of credit
                        totaling $20 million.  This includes letters of credit,
                        totaling approximately $12 million that enable the
                        Company to qualify as a self-insurer for state and
                        federal workers' compensation liabilities.  The amount
                        also includes a letter of credit of $3 million for
                        workers' compensation claims incurred by C&H Sugar
                        Company, Inc. ("C&H," an unconsolidated entity in which
                        the Company has a minority ownership equity interest)
                        employees, under a now-closed self-insurance plan, prior
                        to December 24, 1998.  The Company only would be
                        called upon to honor this letter of credit in the event
                        of C&H's insolvency.  The agreement with C&H to provide
                        this letter of credit expired on December 24, 2003.
                        C&H has advised the Company that it is unable to
                        provide a replacement security deposit.  Until C&H meets
                        this contractual obligation, the Company will not be
                        released from this letter of credit.  The remaining
                        letters of credit, totaling $5 million, are for
                        insurance-related matters, construction performance
                        guarantees, and other routine operating matters.  Of
                        this $5 million, one letter of credit for $2.7 million
                        expired without renewal in April 2004.

               (f)      Of the $13 million in bonds, $6 million consists of
                        subdivision bonds related to real estate construction
                        projects in Hawaii. These bonds are required either by
                        the state or by county governments to ensure that
                        certain infrastructure work, as part of real-estate
                        development, is completed. The Company has the financial
                        ability and intention to complete these improvements.
                        Also included in the total are $5 million of customs
                        bonds.

               (g)      The withdrawal liabilities for multi-employer pension
                        plans, in which Matson is a participant, aggregated
                        approximately $51 million as of the most recent
                        valuation dates. Management has no present intention of
                        withdrawing from and does not anticipate the termination
                        of any of the aforementioned plans.

         Contingencies: As described in the Company's 2003 Form 10-K, a petition
         was filed in January 2004, by the Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation
         ("NHLC"), on behalf of four individuals, requesting that the State of
         Hawaii Board of Land and Natural Resources ("BLNR") declare that the
         Company has no current legal authority to continue to divert water from
         streams in East Maui for use in its sugar growing operations, and to
         order the immediate full restoration of these streams until a legal
         basis is established to permit the diversions of the streams.

         The Company has objected to the petition and asked the BLNR to conduct
         an administrative hearing on the matter, and to consolidate it with the
         pending hearing on the Company's application to the BLNR for the
         issuance of a long-term water lease. The Company is at the same time
         working with the NHLC and its East Maui clients to assist their taro
         growing activities by making improvements to their water systems so as
         to improve the flow of water to their taro patches. An interim
         agreement has been entered into between the parties to permit the
         improvements to be completed, deferring the administrative hearing
         process until May 24, 2004, with the potential of further extensions as
         the parties may agree.

         As also described in the Company's 2003 Form 10-K, on February 6 and 7,
         2004, union workers at Honolulu's two largest concrete manufacturers,
         which supply most of the concrete on Oahu, went on strike, shutting
         down both manufacturing operations. This shutdown delayed the pouring
         of the foundation for the Hokua and Lanikea projects. These two strikes
         have ended, but the matter delayed both projects by several weeks.

         As reported in Items 7 and 8 of the Company's 2003 Form 10-K, the State
         of Hawaii Department of Health ("DOH") has issued a notice of violation
         of state and federal air pollution control regulations and a $2 million
         proposed penalty, following the Company's self reporting of this matter
         and taking corrective action to comply with the regulations. The
         Company has contested this matter, but there has been no change in the
         status since 2003 year-end. The Company believes that the resolution of
         this matter will not have a material effect on its financial statements
         and that appropriate accruals for this matter have been recorded.

         The Company and certain subsidiaries are parties to various legal
         actions and are contingently liable in connection with claims and
         contracts arising in the normal course of business, the outcome of
         which, in the opinion of management after consultation with legal
         counsel, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
         financial position or results of operations.

(4)      Accounting Method for Stock-Based Compensation and Diluted Earnings per
         Share: As allowed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
         ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and by
         SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
         Disclosure," the Company has elected to continue to apply the
         provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
         for Stock Issued to Employees." Accordingly, no compensation cost is
         recognized in the Company's net income for options granted with
         exercise prices that are equal to the market values of the underlying
         common stock on the dates of grant.

         Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share,
         using the fair value method and reported below, has been estimated
         using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model was developed
         for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which do not
         have vesting requirements and which are fully transferable. The
         Company's options have characteristics significantly different from
         those of traded options.

         Had compensation cost for the stock options been based on the estimated
         fair values at grant dates, the Company's pro forma net income and net
         income per share for the first quarter of 2004 and 2003 would have been
         as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

         The pro forma effects are not necessarily representative of the pro
         forma effects on future net income or earnings per share, because the
         number of future shares that may be issued is not known; shares vest
         over several years, and assumptions used to determine the fair value
         can vary significantly. Additional information about stock-based
         compensation is included in Notes 1 and 12 of Item 8 in the Company's
         most recently filed Form 10-K.

(5)      Accounting for and Classification of Discontinued Operations: As
         required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
         144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,"
         the sales of certain income-producing assets are classified as
         discontinued operations if (i) the operations and cash flows of the
         assets can be clearly distinguished from the remaining assets of the
         Company, (ii) the cash flows that are specific to the assets sold have
         been, or will be, eliminated from the ongoing operations of the
         Company, (iii) the Company will not have a significant continuing
         involvement in the operations of the assets sold, and (iv) the amount
         is considered material. Certain assets that are "held for sale," based
         on the likelihood and intention of selling the property within 12
         months, are also treated as discontinued operations. Depreciation on
         these assets is discontinued upon reclassification. Sales of land,
         residential houses, and office condominium units are generally
         considered inventory and are not included in discontinued operations.

         Discontinued operations were as follows (in millions):

</TABLE>

         The change in valuation of derivative amount reflects the valuation of
         an interest rate lock agreement related to the previously noted vessel
         that Matson expects to take delivery of during 2004.

(7)      Pension and Post-retirement Plans: The Company has defined benefit
         pension plans that cover substantially all non-bargaining unit and
         certain bargaining unit employees. The Company also has unfunded
         non-qualified plans that provide benefits in excess of the amounts
         permitted to be paid under the provisions of the tax law to
         participants in qualified plans. The assumptions related to discount
         rates, expected long-term rates of return on invested plan assets,
         salary increases, age, mortality and health care cost trend rates,
         along with other factors, are used in determining the assets,
         liabilities and expenses associated with pension benefits. Management
         reviews the assumptions annually with its independent actuaries, taking
         into consideration existing and future economic conditions and the
         Company's intentions with respect to these plans. Management believes
         that its assumptions and estimates for 2004 are reasonable. Different
         assumptions, however, could result in material changes to the assets,
         obligations and costs associated with benefit plans.

         2004 and 2003 were as follows (in millions):

         Total year 2004 pension expense is expected to be approximately $2
         million. The 2004 pension expense would have been approximately $15
         million had it not benefited from strong 2003 asset growth and the
         Company's joining a multi-employer plan. For the total 2003 year, the
         Company had a pension income of $2 million, after recording a
         settlement gain of $17 million that resulted from joining a
         multi-employer pension plan in late 2003.

         As previously disclosed, the Company still expects to contribute
         approximately $5 million to its pension plan in September 2004.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following analysis of the consolidated financial condition and
results of operations of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. and its subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company") should be read in conjunction with the condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

         The Company, from time to time, may make or may have made certain
forward-looking statements, whether orally or in writing, such as forecasts and
projections of the Company's future performance or statements of management's
plans and objectives. These statements are "forward-looking" statements as that
term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
forward-looking statements may be contained in, among other things, Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings, such as the Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K,
press releases made by the Company, the Company's Internet Web sites (including
Web sites of its subsidiaries), and oral statements made by the officers of the
Company. Except for historical information contained in these written or oral
communications, such communications contain forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the
statements, including, but not limited to, the following factors:

                1)  economic conditions in Hawaii and elsewhere;
                2)  market demand;
                3)  competitive factors, such as the possible entrance of a new
                    competitor in the Hawaii shipping trade, and pricing
                    pressures, principally in the Company's transportation
                    businesses;
                4)  legislative and regulatory environments at the federal,
                    state and local levels, including, among others, government
                    rate regulations, land-use regulations, government
                    administration of the U.S. sugar program, and modifications
                    to or retention of cabotage laws;
                5)  performance of pension assets;
                6)  availability of water for irrigation and to support
                    real-estate development;
                7)  performance of unconsolidated affiliates and ventures;
                8)  significant fluctuations in raw sugar prices and the ability
                    to sell raw sugar to C&H  Sugar  Company,  Inc.("C&H");
                9)  significant fluctuations in fuel prices;
                10) resolution of tax issues with the IRS or state tax
                    authorities;
                11) Company, contractor, vendor and other labor relations in
                    Hawaii, the U.S. Pacific Coast, Guam and other locations
                    where the Company has operations;
                12) renewal or replacement of significant agreements including,
                    but not limited to, lease agreements and Matson's alliance
                    and charter agreement with American President Lines, Ltd.;
                13) acts of nature, including but not limited to, drought,
                    greater than normal rainfall, hurricanes and typhoons;
                14) acts of war and terrorism;
                15) risks associated with current or future litigation; and
                16) other risk factors described elsewhere in these
                    communications and from time to time in the Company's
                    filings with the SEC.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         Consolidated revenue of $344.9 million for the first quarter of 2004
was 26 percent higher than the first quarter of 2003. This 26 percent increase
was due principally to the $23.4 million increase in real estate sales, $23.1
million growth in integrated logistics, and $10.4 million higher revenue for
ocean transportation. The reasons for the revenue growth are described below in
Analysis of Operating Revenue and Profit.

         Operating expense of $302 million for the first quarter of 2004 was 18
percent higher than in 2003. Costs of goods sold, services and rentals increased
$43.4 million compared with the first quarter of 2003 due to higher purchased
transportation services at the integrated logistics business and the sales of
higher cost-basis real-estate in 2004. Additional information about operating
expenses is contained in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Profit. Selling,
general and administrative costs were four percent higher than the first quarter
of 2003 due to inflationary pressures and salary increases subsequent to the
first quarter of 2003 partially offset by lower pension costs. Higher interest
expense reflects the cost of the new vessel financing. Income taxes were higher
than the first quarter of 2003 due to higher pre-tax income and a higher
effective tax rate.

         Additional information about the revenue and profits of the Company are
provided in the segment discussion below. Because the Company operates in five
different segments, the review of segment operations provides an important
perspective on the financial results for the Company.

ANALYSIS OF OPERATING REVENUE AND PROFIT

         The following information should be read in connection with the
financial statements and notes contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Revenue                      $  196.5    $  186.1       6%
Operating profit             $   18.6    $   12.1      54%
---------------------------------------------------------------
Volume (Units)
  Hawaii containers            39,700      39,000       2%
  Automobiles                  36,300      37,500      -3%
  Guam containers               4,500       4,400       2%
---------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         Ocean Transportation revenue of $196.5 million was six percent higher
than the first quarter of 2003. Of this increase nearly two-thirds was due to
improved yields and cargo mix, and approximately one-third was due to volume and
charter carriage. Container volume was two percent higher than the first quarter
of 2003 reflecting higher shipments of retail commodities and construction
materials. This is, in part, the result of 2004 economic growth, partially
offset by a non-recurring carryover of freight from 2002 into 2003, due to the
late 2002 West Coast port disruptions. Lower automobile carriage for the first
quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003 was due principally to
the non-recurring carryover of automobiles in early 2003 following the 2002 port
disruptions.

         Operating profit of $18.6 million was 54 percent better than the first
quarter of 2003. Of this improvement approximately half related to favorable
yields and higher container volume, 16 percent resulted from yard congestion,
vessel schedule disruptions and cargo handling costs following the 2002 port
disruptions. The remaining improvement was due principally to improved returns
from joint ventures, and lower administrative and pension costs.

         Effective March 14, 2004, Matson increased its fuel surcharge for
Hawaii and Guam/Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands services from 7.5
percent to eight percent due to increased cost of bunker fuel.

Operating profit              $    1.0      $     0.5         100%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         Matson Integrated Logistics revenue growth for the first quarter of
2004 for the Company's integrated logistics services business was mainly the
result of increased customer volume, in large part due to an acquisition in late
2003. This transaction is discussed in Items 7 and 8 of the Company's 2003 Form
10-K. The increase in operating profit was the result of the business growth.

         The revenue for logistics services includes the total amount billed to
customers for transportation services. The primary costs include purchased
transportation for that cargo. As a result, the operating profit margins for
this business are lower than other A&B businesses. The primary operating profit
and investment risk for this business is the quality of receivables, which is
monitored closely by management.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         Property Leasing revenue and operating profit growth for the first
quarter of 2004 was the result of higher occupancies for the Mainland commercial
leasing portfolio and higher contributions from replacement income-producing
properties acquired since the 2003 first quarter. The lower mainland occupancy
for the first quarter of 2003 resulted from a large lease vacancy in late 2002.
Although this vacancy reduced occupancy rates for the first quarter of 2003, it
had little effect on revenue or operating profit. This vacancy had been filled
by the 2003 second quarter. Hawaii occupancy increased, due principally to gains
in office leasing.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         Sales during the first quarter of 2004 included the sales of 17 Maui
and Oahu commercial inventory properties for $12.2 million, 7.5 office
condominium floors for $8.8 million, and 23 residential properties for $18.9
million. Operating profit also included the Company's share of earnings in two
real estate joint ventures of $1 million that, combined, reflects the sales of
12 residential units.

         Sales during the first quarter of 2003 included eight commercial
properties for $14.9 million and five residential properties for $1.6 million.
Operating profit also included the Company's share of earnings in two real
estate joint ventures of $1.2 million that, combined, reflects the sales of 32
residential units.

         The mix of property sales in any year or quarter can be diverse. Sales
can include developed residential real estate, commercial properties,
developable subdivision lots, undeveloped land, and property sold under threat
of condemnation. The sale of undeveloped land and vacant parcels in Hawaii
generally provides a greater contribution to earnings than does the sale of
developed and commercial property, due to the low historical-cost basis of the
Company's Hawaii land. Consequently, property sales revenue trends, cash flows
from the sales of real estate and the amount of real estate held for sale on the
balance sheets do not necessarily indicate future profitability trends for this
segment. The reporting of property sales is also affected by the classification
of certain property sales as discontinued operations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         There were no sales of property that were characterized as discontinued
operations during the first quarter of 2004 but discontinued operations included
a cost adjustment for property that was sold previously. During the first
quarter of 2003, the proceeds from sales of five commercial properties on Maui
were classified as discontinued operations.

         Because the Company regularly sells commercial properties, the amounts
reported as continuing and discontinued operations in prior quarters are
restated each time a property is designated as discontinued.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

         Food products revenue declined for the first quarter of 2004 compared
with 2003 due mainly to lower raw sugar production and sales prices that were
about seven percent below 2003. Operating profit, however, benefited principally
from higher electrical power sales, stronger food-grade sugar and roasted-coffee
sales. Lower sugar production during the first quarter of 2004 was due to wet
weather that affected harvesting conditions adversely. Quarterly fluctuations in
sales and operating profit are normal for this business due to weather,
production and other seasonality factors.

         Through March 31, 2004, approximately 27 percent of the Company's
expected 2004 commodity sugar crop had been priced. Approximately five percent
of the 2004 crop is food-grade and is sold at prices higher than the raw-sugar
commodity prices. Average revenue per ton of sugar for 2004 is expected to be
approximately seven percent lower than in 2003.

         The 2004 full-year operating profit for Food Products is expected to be
less than the amounts reported last year because raw sugar prices have declined
and sugar production may be less than 2003 levels.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS AND CASH FLOWS

         Debt and Liquid Resources: The Company's principal liquid resources,
comprising cash and cash equivalents, receivables, sugar and coffee inventories
and unused lines of credit, less accrued deposits to the Capital Construction
Fund ("CCF"), totaled $575 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $30 million
from December 31, 2003. The increase was due primarily to $15 million of higher
cash balances, $15 million of higher sugar and coffee inventory balances, and $6
million of higher balances available under variable rate debt facilities
partially offset by $8 million of lower receivable balances. Inventory balances
were the result of normal business seasonality. Cash balances were higher than
2003 year-end due to receivable collections, business growth, and timing of
capital expenditures.

         Long-term Debt, including amounts classified as current, totaled $335
million at March 31, 2004 compared with a balance of $345 million at December
31, 2003. This $10 million decrease was due principally to normal debt
repayments. The weighted average interest rate for the Company's outstanding
borrowings at March 31, 2004 was approximately 4%.

         As noted previously, Matson expects to take delivery of a new vessel in
the third or fourth quarter of 2004. Matson has received from the Maritime
Administration, a commitment to guarantee up to $75 million of U.S. government
Guaranteed Ship Financing Bonds, more commonly known as Title XI bonds, of which
35% may be issued at a floating rate. The Company's Capital Construction Fund
and operating cash flows may also be used in connection with the vessel
purchase.

         Working Capital: Working capital was $76 million at March 31, 2004, an
increase of $12 million from the balance carried at the end of 2003. The higher
working capital was due primarily to higher cash and inventory balances
partially offset by lower balances of real estate held for sale. Real estate
held for sale declined during the first quarter mainly due to the sales of
office condominium property discussed above.

         Cash Flows and Capital Expenditures: Cash Flows from Operating
Activities was $50 million for the first quarter of 2004, compared with Cash
Flows from Operating Activities of $7 million for the first quarter of 2003. The
higher cash flow was due to better operating results, the sales of real estate
classified as Real Estate Held for Sale and fluctuations in other working
capital balances.

         For the first quarter of 2004, capital expenditures totaled $9 million
compared with $12 million for the first quarter of 2003. For both quarters,
these expenditures were for normal operations. There were no real estate
acquisitions during the first quarter of 2004.

         Tax-Deferred Real Estate Exchanges: Sales - There was one sale of
property, for $3.6 million, on a tax-deferred basis during the first quarter of
2004. During the first quarter of 2003, the Company recorded, on a tax-deferred
basis, real-estate sales proceeds of $14.4 million. The proceeds from these
sales were immediately available for reinvestment in replacement property. The
proceeds from tax-deferred sales are held in escrow pending future use to
purchase new real estate assets.

         Purchases - No property was purchased during the first quarter of 2004
using the proceeds from tax-deferred sales. As of March 31, 2004, $3.6 million
of proceeds from tax-deferred sales had not been reinvested.

         Commitments and Contingencies: A description of commitments and
contingencies in effect at the end of the first quarter is described in Note (3)
to the financial statements of Item 1.

         Environmental Matters: As with most industrial and land development
companies of its size, the Company's shipping, real estate, and agricultural
businesses have certain risks that could result in expenditures for
environmental remediation. The Company believes that it is in compliance, in all
material respects, with applicable environmental laws and regulations, and works
proactively to identify potential environmental concerns. The Company has
emergency response and crisis management programs.

OTHER MATTERS

         Significant Accounting Policies: The Company's significant accounting
policies are described in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements
included in Item 8 of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2003 and in the Financial Notes included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

         Critical Accounting Policies Estimates: The Company's accounting
policies are described in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in Item 8 of the Company's most recently filed Form 10-K. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, upon which the Management's
Discussion and Analysis is based, requires that management exercise judgment
when making estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future
events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty and actual
results will, inevitably, differ from those estimates. These differences could
be material. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the
preparation of A&B's financial statements were described in Item 7 of the
Company's 2003 Form 10-K.

         Investments: The Company's joint ventures are described in Item 8 of
its most recently filed Form 10-K. The Company has evaluated investments in
unconsolidated affiliates relative to Financial Interpretation ("FIN") Number 46
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," as revised, and has determined
that the investments in these affiliates are either not subject to or do not
meet the consolidation requirements of FIN No. 46. Accordingly, the Company
accounts for these investments using the equity method of accounting and the
consolidation provisions of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 "Consolidated
Financial Statements," as amended.

         Charter Agreements: Matson and American President Lines, Ltd. ("APL")
are parties to the Successor Alliance Slot Hire and Time Charter Agreement ("APL
Agreement") that expires in February 2006. This APL Agreement provides the
structure of an alliance through which Matson provides a weekly service to Guam.
Pursuant to this eight-year APL Agreement, Matson time charters three C-9 class
vessels to APL and APL reserves a designated number of container slots on each
vessel for Matson's exclusive use. This APL Agreement generates charter revenue
of approximately $2.9 million per month for Matson.

         New and Proposed Accounting Standards: In December 2003, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46, revised,
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46") The Interpretation
defines variable interest entities and addresses consolidation of such entities
by the primary beneficiary of the entity. The Interpretation is effective for
interests in variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and is
effective March 31, 2004. The Company has evaluated investments in
unconsolidated affiliates relative to FIN 46, revised, and has determined that
the investments in these affiliates are either not subject to or do not meet the
consolidation requirements of FIN No. 46. Accordingly, the Company accounts for
these investments using the equity method of accounting and the consolidation
provisions of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 "Consolidated Financial
Statements," as amended.

         In December 2003, the FASB amended Statement of Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 132 "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits." The portions of the amendment that will apply to the Company's 2004
financial statement disclosures include a table of expected benefit payments for
five years and, in total, for the subsequent five-year period. Additionally, the
Company is required to disclose components of the net benefit cost in quarterly
financial statements beginning with the first quarter of 2004. This interim
disclosure information is included above.

         Additional information about the impacts of newly issued accounting
standards is discussed in Item 8 of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2003.

         Economic Conditions: Some measures of Hawaii's economy have begun
"leveling out," in the near-term, at a moderate level. These measures include
growth in personal income, jobs and construction. As a result, the State's
above-average performance relative to the U.S. mainland is reverting to that of
the now-higher growth trend for the country as a whole, at least until the
contribution of new factors, such as a military housing program, begin to
contribute. Another potential positive factor for 2004 is Japan's gradually
improving economic situation.

         The trends observed during 2003 continue in the important visitor
industry. That is, total visitors rise, based on the net of small decreases in
the international market, offset by growth in the U.S. market. In the month of
February, for example, total visitors rose six percent versus February 2003,
with domestic travelers up 11.4 percent and international visitors off 4.3
percent. Hotel occupancies show improvement. In February, for example, statewide
occupancy, at 83.5 percent, was five percent better than in February 2003. Room
rates also are edging higher, reflecting a reduction in past discounting.

         Hawaii's consumption of consumer durable goods differs periodically
from that of the Mainland. For example, in 2003, total auto registrations in the
U.S. declined by 2.1 percent. Hawaii's registrations rose by an unexpectedly
high 17.6 percent, with strong rental car replacements as well as consumer
purchases. The outlook in 2004 is for a 7.2 percent increase.

         Low mortgage rates and limited inventory have combined to sustain a
steady rise in median prices for homes and condominiums on Oahu and the Neighbor
Islands. For example, total residential re-sales on Oahu totaled $907 million in
the first quarter 2004, an increase of 37 percent over the already strong
year-earlier level. Some note is being taken in the Hawaii press and in public
forums of the resulting limited supply of affordable housing.

         With sustained high demand for residential real estate, construction
activity remains high, although some measures are off recent peaks. The
contracting tax base, a proxy for the level of total construction activity,
decreased by 2.4 percent in the fourth quarter 2003. On the other hand, it was
up 6.1 percent for the full 2003 year. Construction jobs statewide were up 5.5
percent in the fourth quarter and 7.3 percent for the full year. Looking ahead,
total private building authorizations declined by 8.5 percent in the fourth
quarter, but still are at a relatively high level. Residential units authorized
rose by 17.6 percent in the period.

         Defense-related expenditures remain very important to Hawaii. About
10,000 personnel have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, with a near-term
decline in consumption and retail volume. In the future, however, formation of a
Hawaii-based Stryker brigade calls for greater air and ground deployments to
Hawaii. In addition, planning, training and supply efforts are beginning for
long-term, multi-billion dollar contracts to replace, rebuild and manage
military housing on Oahu.

         The state of Hawaii's Department of Business, Economic Development and
Tourism recently notched downward its projection for Hawaii's real gross state
product by 0.2 percent, to 2.6 percent. The forecast for 2005 remains at 2.4
percent.

         Historically, moderate growth levels, such as these, have proven more
sustainable than higher growth, which often creates imbalances among the limited
resources in island communities. For A&B, moderate growth also creates
opportunities for increasing demand for shipping to Hawaii, as well as for all
aspects of real estate activity.

         Management Changes:   The following management changes occurred from
January 1, 2004 through April 23, 2004:

              Andrasick held the positions of chief financial officer and
              treasurer through February 8, 2004 and continues as president and
              chief executive officer of Matson.

         o    Paul W. Hallin was promoted to senior vice president, development
              of A&B Properties, Inc. effective January 1, 2004.

              effective February 9, 2004. Mr. Loomis is also vice president of

         o    Thomas A. Wellman was promoted to vice president, treasurer and
              controller of A&B effective February 9, 2004.

         Information concerning market risk is incorporated herein by reference

2003. There has been no material change in the quantitative and qualitative
disclosure about market risk since December 31, 2003.


ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
--------------------------------

     (a)   Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  The Company's management, with
           the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief
           Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's
           disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules
           13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
           as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered
           by this report.  Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief
           Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded
           that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls
           and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing
           and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be
           disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits
           under the Exchange Act.

     (b)   Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any
           changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting
           (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the
           Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates
           that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
           affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
