MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS

Aloha, Fellow Stakeholders

    We are pleased to report that CPB Inc. and its subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank, recorded its second consecutive year of record earnings in 2000. This achievement is particularly satisfying since we have been working very hard over the past several years to reorganize and refocus our Bank to better help our customers. We have taken to heart the challenge of providing our customers with the kinds of financial information and services they need today to make their business and personal financial goals more attainable. In essence, we are contributing to the further development of our community at large. By so doing, we will continue to grow as Hawaii's premier, full-service financial provider.

    To fulfill this mission, we had to change. Since launching our strategic plan in 1999, we have reported to you the step-by-step innovations we have made to transform and refocus our Bank. Among these changes, we streamlined our operations and redefined positions to focus on service and sales. We centralized operations, consolidated overlapping functions and outsourced time-consuming support functions. Resources were reallocated to our frontline, customer contact points. Combined with the creation of dedicated personal banking, business and corporate relationship officers, we are now able to further enhance our customer relations through greater personalized service. Two of CPB's customer-friendly innovations—the Customer Service Center and Business Client Service Center—also add to our ability to provide quick and convenient response to our customers' personal or business needs.

    Through these and other initiatives, our goal is to develop meaningful, personal financial relationships with our customers. Only by staying connected with our customers will we be able to understand their needs and provide them with solutions in achieving the financial security that they work so hard to attain.

    To bring about an expanded line of products, we partnered with companies best able to provide our customers with a complete mix of premium financial products and services. As an example, in partnering with one of the nation's largest brokers, our Bank now offers customers a wide range of investment and life insurance alternatives, meeting an ever-growing demand for such financial planning services.

    In the process of improving and expanding our range of products and services, we have also created a more efficient operation through the use of advanced technology. This includes the integration and upgrading of our computer systems and working with key service providers to insure delivery of cost-effective, state-of-the-art products and services, such as consumer and merchant credit card services, expanded automated teller machine (ATM) network and services, and Internet banking.

    At times, implementing such significant changes has proven to be quite challenging. Thanks to the commitment and hard work of our management team and our employees, we have successfully completed the major portion of our reorganization plan. Our Bank's continued strong performance through this reorganization process indicates that we are doing the right thing.

    In the year 2000 following continued efforts to improve asset quality and reduce expenses, our Company's return on equity (ROE) increased from 11.0 to 13.6. The combined strength of our earnings, and our ability to buy back our shares of common stock and reduce the number of shares outstanding has benefited our shareholders. It also resulted in our Bank's employees becoming the largest shareholder in our Company. With this added incentive for our employees—combined with the internal and infrastructure improvements now in place—we are optimistic about the years to come.

    Indeed, we believe that CPB is poised to move forward with its new combination of people, systems and organizational structure to provide the right solutions to meet our customers' financial needs. By working together, we can strive to build more prosperous businesses and create broader opportunities for people and their families in Hawaii.

    At CPB, helping Hawaii businesses succeed is one of our most important priorities in our overall strategy. Because we improved our technological and organizational infrastructure and invested in our people, our corporate and business relationship officers are well positioned to help large and small businesses achieve their financial goals.

    As a community bank, our fate is tied directly to the health of the community we serve. Understanding this, CPB is committed to investing in Hawaii-based businesses that help to energize our local economy.

    Construction activity serves as one of the leading indicators of a healthy economy, and CPB understands that financing holds the key in supporting Hawaii's construction industry. At CPB, our loan programs are heavily committed to building projects that directly benefit our island economy. In supporting quality construction projects, our Bank in turn serves to stimulate additional business ventures.

    Large ventures such as The Shops at Wailea, for example, play an important role in our state's economic well-being by providing new employment and entrepreneurial opportunities, as well as adding to Hawaii's distinction as a premier retail destination worldwide. We also appreciate the role that small businesses play in our modern island economy. As an example, we are supporting the development of the Pacific Gateway Center incubator kitchen project, designed to provide the necessary facilities for individuals to create new food products and startup businesses. In nurturing this entrepreneurial spirit, we work to build stronger communities.

    Whether a business is large or small, efficiency, cost-management and productivity are vital to its survival and long-term success. Providing solutions to these real-life issues continues to drive CPB's reorganization.

    For larger businesses, our newly established Business Client Service Center serves as a one-stop resource from installing specialized computer software allowing for business-to-business transactions to tracking and resolving account inquiries. Ultimately, these quality services result in extra time for our clients to operate their business.

    Smaller businesses can now utilize CPB Business Advantage, the only program of its kind in Hawaii. To save small business owners money on common services and products, we partner with national and local suppliers and service providers to receive valuable benefits and discounts. CPB Business Advantage members enjoy substantial savings on travel, including airfare, hotel accommodation and car rental, purchases with extended warranty, business property and casualty insurance, and equipment leasing. This year, we added valuable local companies to our already extensive list of CPB Business Advantage partners that offer discounts on high-speed Internet services, wireless communications services, outsourced employment services, courier services and office products.

    In addition to these valuable programs, CPB kicked-off 2000 by becoming the first bank in Hawaii to offer Internet banking to both businesses and consumers. Through CPBInternet for Business and CPBInternet banking services, our customers can bank anywhere, anytime, and have immediate access to their finances. These new services underscore CPB's commitment to meet the changing needs of customers by putting banking convenience right at their fingertips.

    CPB's Internet services can help customers better manage their money. They can access their loan and deposit account information whenever they want, enabling them to make timely and cost-saving decisions. Through CPBInternet for Business' user-friendly screens and support services, business owners can quickly and easily pay bills, transfer funds, make payroll direct deposits, originate electronic funds tax payments (EFTPS), and initiate check stop payment requests and other cash management features.

    By connecting directly with Hawaii's business owners through our corporate and business relationship officers, CPB can best tailor its products and programs to provide for the convenience, efficiency, time- and cost-saving solutions they need and want most to prosper in our fast-paced, ever-changing world.

    In order to enhance the changing lifestyles of our consumers, CPB has had to work smarter to deliver new conveniences in a timely, yet secure manner. Making it easier and quicker for customers to seek answers to questions or problems, we established a one-stop Customer Service Center with highly trained customer service representatives. Personal banking officers and financial service officers at the branches ensure that we maintain a high level of service quality in helping consumers achieve their financial goals, a worthy mission that will not only benefit our customers and our Bank, but will contribute to the well-being of our community as a whole.

    Although many people do not feel comfortable investing directly in the stock market, everyone wants to earn the best possible return on their dollar. Whether the goal is to fund their children's education, lay out a roadmap to a comfortable retirement, or merely maximize the value of their hard-earned money, people are looking to invest with institutions they can trust.

LOGO

    In April, our Bank rolled out its much-anticipated investment program to which the response has been very positive. The establishment of our financial planning program and our strategic alliance with Financial Network Investment Corporation (FNIC) offers customers a wide range of investment and life insurance alternatives. FNIC, one of the leading national investment brokers, was selected for its financial strength, industry reputation and technological resources. This new program complements our existing financial planning services offered through our Trust and Investment Management Division. Our experienced trust and investment officers provide a broad range of services such as investment management, estate planning, and administering of trusts and probates. Now, with the personalized service of qualified relationship bankers and the expertise of licensed financial advisors, our Bank's investment services can meet the simplest to the most complex financial planning needs of our customers.

    By partnering with top-rated companies like FNIC, we are able to offer a wide range of products and services that are both high quality and price competitive. In the case of our Internet services, CPB partnered with Digital Insight (formerly nFront), which was awarded "Best Internet Banking Solution" by Microsoft and was accorded the exclusive endorsement for Internet banking by the American Bankers Association. This means CPB customers can feel confident knowing they will be using one of the best Internet banking programs in the country.

    Similarly, CPB's partnership with Concord EFS, one of the leading ATM processors in the nation, will allow our Bank to offer numerous new features in the near future, such as gift certificates and check cashing. For the added convenience of our customers, we've expanded our network of ATMs via our partnership with Tesoro—one of the largest gasoline retailers in Hawaii—installing an additional 17 ATMs in its gas station convenience stores.

    CPB's partnerships with MBNA bank card services to handle our credit card customers, and with Nova Information Systems to service our merchant credit card customers, have provided significant economies of scale. The net result of these partnerships to our customers is access to modernized conveniences and services, backed by the most innovative and reputable providers of banking services in the country, all available through the careful management and solid local reputation of CPB.

    Founded by local business and community leaders some 47 years ago, CPB understands its home. Moreover, we appreciate and respond to the role that we play in relation to the multitude of diverse parts that make Hawaii special. In this regard, CPB proudly supports a wide range of community reinvestment events and programs that help to make this a better place to live while contributing to Hawaii's economy.

    The Hawaii Women's Business Center became the first organization in the state focused on helping women to develop and grow successful businesses. In 1998, CPB was one of the founding funders of this unique organization. Today, women-owned businesses in Hawaii are ranked third in the nation. The Center is one of 25 facilities around the country to receive a five-year U.S. Small Business Administration grant, allowing for continued service to meet this growing demand.

    Through two endowment funds, CPB continues to develop our communities and future leaders. The CPB Community Endowment Fund provides grants for charitable programs and projects whose primary purpose is geared to community development within targeted areas. CPB's University of Hawaii Endowment Fund awards scholarships to athletes majoring in business and assists financially disadvantaged athletes in realizing their dreams.

    University of Hawaii sports and sports in general provide a key engine fueling Hawaii's economy. Major sporting events such as the Sony Open in Hawaii and football bowl games help to spotlight the beautiful climate and active lifestyles to audiences worldwide.

    CPB also appreciates Hawaii's cultural diversity that makes this place so special. CPB supports a variety of cultural and educational organizations and contributes significantly to many economic development organizations in Hawaii, such as the different ethnic Chambers of Commerce, which play a vital role in strengthening our economic base. CPB is proud to support these groups through active membership participation and project and program sponsorships, all with the intention of fostering growth through community reinvestment.

    We at CPB have chosen to embrace the myriad of changes that have impacted our financial services industry and our economic landscape as an opportunity to adapt, grow and improve our Company and our Bank. Through bold, yet studied management, we are continually striving to prepare ourselves to handle our customers' changing lifestyles and financial needs.

    CPB's management team collectively vowed not to use a sluggish economy as an excuse for less than optimum performance. Instead, we directed all energies into seeking new opportunities to provide for our Bank's continued growth and stability. With "responsiveness" as a keyword, we worked quickly and cooperatively to retool our systems, technology, infrastructure and staff to respond to our customers and their financial success.

    As we now turn our focus to securing and developing the human resources we need to fully maximize the foundation we have set, we commit to providing our dedicated employees with training opportunities so they may continue to offer our customers the highest level of service. Well within the targets we had set for ourselves in our strategic plan, we continue to aim high in serving our customers, our communities and our shareholders. As we assess our progress for the year 2000, we believe we have demonstrated that we have the energy, the knowledge and the commitment. In better connecting with our customers and our ability to adapt to change, we are poised to maintain our service advantage.

    Thank you for your continuing support of CPB.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

    CPB Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank"), recorded a second consecutive year of record earnings in 2000. An increase in net interest income and lower operating expenses contributed to the year's performance. Assets, including loans, also reached new highs, as the amount of nonperforming assets continued its downward trend of the last three years. The Company's stock repurchase program, which began in 1998, enhanced earnings per share growth, while capital was maintained above well-capitalized levels. The Company sold its merchant services portfolio and closed two branches during the year as part of its three-year strategic plan to increase profitability and efficiency.

    Net income reached $19.4 million in 2000, increasing by 19.0% over $16.3 million earned in 1999, which increased by 8.3% over $15.1 million earned in 1998. Diluted earnings per share of $2.14 in 2000 increased by 27.4% over $1.68 earned in 1999, which increased by 15.9% over $1.45 earned in 1998. Cash dividends per share of $0.61 in 2000 increased by 10.9% over $0.55 declared in 1999, which increased by 5.8% over $0.52 declared in 1998. Return on average assets improved to 1.16% in 2000 compared to 1.03% in 1999 and 1.00% in 1998. Return on average stockholders' equity increased to 13.55% in 2000 compared to 10.93% in 1999 and 9.79% in 1998.

    The Company's performance in 2000 resulted in its sixth consecutive year of earnings increase, operating in the state of Hawaii's economy, which experienced difficulties during most of the last decade. However, modest growth in the state's economy was experienced during the last three years. Tourism, the state's primary industry, continued to increase as measured by visitor arrivals. Real estate activity also increased, with higher average resale prices, while construction activity also increased during 2000. The state's unemployment rate dropped below 4% during the fourth quarter of 2000.

    Total assets of $1.82 billion at year-end 2000 increased by 10.4% over year-end 1999. Loans of $1.29 billion increased by 10.3% and investment securities of $385 million increased by 19.6% over the year. Deposits of $1.36 billion increased by 4.4% mainly due to growth in time deposits. Demand, savings and money market deposits decreased during the year due to movement of customer deposits to higher yielding time deposits and competitive factors. Consequently, long-term debt of $221 million more than doubled from the previous year-end balance of $98 million to supplement the funding of asset growth. Stockholders' equity of $143 million decreased by 0.5% due to the Company's stock repurchase program, which is discussed in the Capital Resources section of this Management's Discussion.

    As signs of economic slowdown appear for the U. S. economy, Management is cautious in its growth expectations for the local economy in 2001. Lack of significant improvement in the state's economy is likely to continue to have a negative impact on the Company's growth and levels of nonperforming loans and related loan losses.

    Net interest income in 2000 increased by $2.8 million or 4.0% over 1999, which increased by $3.7 million or 5.6% over 1998. The increases were mainly due to growth in volume of interest earning assets during the last two years. Changes in interest rates had a material impact on both interest income and interest expense. The net effect, however, had a smaller impact on net interest income.

    Interest income in 2000 increased by 12.2% over 1999 due to growth in volume and higher yields on loans and investment securities. Average volume of interest earning assets of $1.58 billion increased by 5.6% and the related yield of 8.11% increased by 47 basis points over 1999. Average loans outstanding in 2000 increased by 6.1% and average investment securities by 11.4% over the previous year. The decrease in average interest-bearing deposits in other banks in 2000 was due to growth in other asset categories.

    Interest income in 1999 increased by 1.3% over 1998 primarily impacted by a decrease in yield on interest earning assets. Average volume of interest earning assets increased by 5.1%, while the related yield decreased by 29 basis points compared to 1998. Yields reflected movements in the general level of the interest rates during the last three years.

    Interest expense in 2000 increased by 25.1% over 1999 due to growth in volume and effective rates paid on time deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Effective rates on core deposits, defined as total deposits excluding time deposits $100,000 and over, remained relatively unchanged. Average interest-bearing liabilities in 2000 of $1.32 billion increased by 6.6% and the effective rate on those funds was 4.21%. Average time deposits in 2000 increased by 13.1%, average short-term borrowings increased by 55.8% and average long-term debt increased by 17.5%. The increase in these purchased funding categories in 2000 totaled $80.9 million and provided funding for asset growth as savings and money market deposits decreased by 8.1%. The effective rate on interest-bearing liabilities in 2000 was materially affected by movements in the general level of interest rates as well as the aggregate decrease in lower cost demand, savings and money market accounts compared to 1999. Management has placed a major emphasis on core deposits for 2001. Financial targets, marketing programs and employee incentives have been aligned accordingly. Management expects to decrease reliance on large certificates of deposit and long-term debt as the primary incremental sources of future asset growth.

13


    Interest expense in 1999 decreased by 4.9% from 1998 primarily due to a decrease in the effective rate on interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased by 39 basis points. Average total interest-bearing liabilities increased by 5.6% compared to 1998.

    As a result, net interest margin in 2000 decreased to 4.60% from 4.67% in 1999 and 4.65% in 1998. The ratio has been relatively stable during the last three years. The decline of net interest margin in 2000 reflected lack of growth in core deposits and this ratio will continue to be under pressure to the extent that core deposits do not increase in the future.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

    Provision for loan losses ("Provision") is determined by Management's ongoing evaluation of the loan portfolio and their assessment of the ability of the allowance for loan losses ("Allowance") to cover inherent losses. The Company's methodology for determining the adequacy of the Allowance and the Provision takes into account many factors, including the level and trend of nonperforming and potential problem loans, net charge-off experience, current repayment by borrowers, fair value of collateral securing specific loans and general economic factors in Hawaii. The Company's Provision was $4.5 million, $3.7 million and $6.6 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Net loan charge-offs decreased to $2.7 million compared to $3.0 million in 1999 and $5.7 million in 1998, or when expressed as a percentage of average loans, decreased to 0.22% from 0.26% in 1999 and 0.53% in 1998. In 2000, partial charge-offs on two loans secured by commercial properties accounted for $1.9 million of total charge-offs with business and residential mortgage loans comprising the balance of the charge-offs. Recoveries totaling $503,000 from two commercial loans accounted for over one-half of total recoveries of $936,000. The Allowance expressed as a percentage of loans was 1.75% at December 31, 2000 compared to 1.77% and 1.81% at the previous two year-ends. In Management's judgment, the Allowance at year-end 2000 was adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

    Uncertain economic conditions in the state of Hawaii may adversely affect borrowers' ability to repay, value of collateral and consequently the level of nonperforming loans, net charge-offs, provision for loan losses and net income.

    Total nonperforming assets, accruing loans delinquent for 90 days or more and restructured loans still accruing interest decreased to $12.3 million at December 31, 2000 from $15.2 million a year ago. Nonaccrual loans of $8.5 million decreased from $9.7 million during that period due to loan payoffs and partial charge-off of a mortgage loan, offset by a $3.1 million loan secured by commercial real estate which was placed on nonaccrual status during the year. Problems with residential mortgage loans still persist, however, a more active real estate market in Hawaii helped mitigate losses. Other real estate of $1.8 million increased from $1.4 million held a year ago. Nine properties were held at year-end 2000, comprised of one commercial property and eight residential properties. Loans

15


delinquent for 90 days or more decreased to $1.5 million from $3.6 million a year ago and was comprised of seven loans at year-end 2000. One-half of the delinquency balance was attributed to a mortgage loan secured by commercial property with the balance comprised of residential mortgage loans. A restructured loan still accruing interest of $466,000, secured by commercial property, was held at December 31, 2000 compared to $500,000 held a year ago. Although nonperforming loans decreased during 2000, provision for loan losses increased over 1999 due to an increase in loans outstanding. The Allowance expressed as a percentage of loans at year-end 2000 declined from year-end 1999. Accounting for nonperforming assets is discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements on pages 26 and 27 of this Annual Report.

    Other operating income of $12.7 million in 2000 was virtually unchanged from 1999. Sale of the Company's merchant services portfolio in 2000 generated a nonrecurring gain of $1.85 million. The related effect of this sale was the reduction of $2.9 million in merchant servicing fees in 2000 compared to 1999. Investment securities losses of $766,000 compared to losses of $250,000 realized in the previous year through sales of selected holdings. Sales and subsequent purchases of investment securities during 2000 increased the average maturity of the investment securities portfolio which decreased the asset sensitivity of the Bank's balance sheet as the general level of interest rates appeared to stabilize. See Asset/Liability Management section on pages 17 and 18 of this Annual Report for a general discussion on this topic. Income from fiduciary activities increased by $287,000 or 36.2% over 1999.

    Other operating income in 1999 decreased by $4.2 million or 24.9% from 1998 due to a nonrecurring gain of $4.6 million recognized from the sale of the Company's credit card portfolio in 1998. Service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges and fees increased by 5.6% over 1998. Income from fiduciary activities increased by 23.0% and investment securities losses of $250,000 were realized in 1999 compared to $254,000 in gains in 1998. Income from bank-owned life insurance accounted for the balance of the increase in other income in 1999 over 1998.

    Total other operating income, expressed as a percentage of average assets, was 0.76% in 2000, 0.80% in 1999 and 1.12% in 1998. Excluding the gain from sale of the credit card portfolio, the 1998 percentage was 0.81%

    Other operating expense of $49.6 million in 2000 decreased by $3.9 million or 7.2% compared to 1999. Salaries and employee benefits in 2000 decreased by $2.9 million or 10.4% from 1999. The decrease was mainly attributable to a 6.3% reduction in the number of full-time equivalent employees, reduction in contribution to profit sharing and employee ownership plans from 10% to 5% of defined net income and reversal in 2000 of $600,000 in restructuring charges from the $1.6 million accrued in 1999. This reversal was due to revised estimates of severance payments in connection with staff downsizing occurring through 2000. Of the original 76 positions being eliminated, approximately one-third of the employees impacted were retained to fill new positions and vacancies created by attrition. The $1.6 million accrual in 1999 provided for expenses related to the closing of three branches in 1999 and 2000, sale of the Bank's merchant services portfolio and other programs to enhance efficiency. Profit sharing contributions decreased by $800,000 to $1.3 million due to reduction in plan benefits. Contributions to the Company's 401(k) plan increased by $318,000 due to an increase in Company matching of employee contributions. The number of full-time equivalent employees at year-end 2000 decreased to 504 from 540 and 587 employees at the end of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The reduction in staff during the last two years was a result of the sale of the Company's credit card and merchant services portfolios, closing of three branches and the successful completion of programs to enhance operating efficiencies. The increase in salaries and employee benefits in 1999 was mainly due to the aforementioned $1.6 million in restructuring charges.

    Net occupancy expense of $6.4 million in 2000 increased by 2.7% over 1999 and equipment expense of $2.7 million was lower than both 1999 and 1998. A reduction in the number of employees and elimination of operating expenses related to the sale of the Bank's merchant services portfolio impacted these expenses. Other expense of $15.5 million decreased by $1.1 million or 6.6% in 2000 over 1999, mainly due to a reduction of $3.6 million in interchange and other expenses related to merchant services and a settlement fee with the entity, which provided processing of merchant services. Nonrecurring expenses of $450,000 recognized in 2000 representing lease termination charges and writedown of equipment related to branch closures offset the abovementioned reduction. Legal, audit and professional fees of $2.8 million increased by $977,000 or 54.7% in 2000 over 1999 mainly due to consulting fees on strategic planning projects and income tax strategies. The increase in other expense in 1999 over 1998 was mainly due to a $746,000 or 27.7% increase in expenses related to merchant and bank card services.

    Total other operating expense as a percentage of average assets was 2.96% in 2000, 3.37% in 1999 and 3.40% in 1998.

Income Taxes

    Income tax expense totaled $10.6 million in 2000, $8.1 million in 1999 and $9.0 million in 1998. The effective tax rate was 35.3% in 2000, 33.0% in 1999 and 37.3% in 1998. Accrual adjustments recorded in 1999 and investment in bank-owned life insurance accounted for the lower effective tax rate for that year.

    Average total assets of $1.67 billion increased by $86 million or 5.4% in 2000 over 1999, which increased by $79 million or 5.3% over 1998. Loans and investment securities increased in 2000 as average core deposits, increased only slightly over 1999. This growth in interest earning assets required funding from time deposits $100,000 and over, and short- and long-term borrowings.

18


    Average loans of $1.22 billion increased by 6.1% in 2000 over 1999, which increased by 7.7% over 1998. Loans as a proportion of total assets of 73.1% in 2000 increased over the last three years. Average investment securities of $352 million increased by 11.4% over 1999, which decreased by 6.5% from 1998. Average interest-bearing deposits in other banks decreased to $5 million compared to $27 million in 1999 and $15 million in 1998.

    Average total deposits of $1.32 billion increased by 3.4% in 2000 over 1999, which increased by 6.1% over 1998. Average core deposits of $934 million increased by 1.0% over 1999, which increased by 6.1% over 1998. Average time deposits $100,000 and over of $383 million increased by 11.9% in 2000 over 1999, which increased by 6.0% over 1998. Average short-term borrowings and long-term debt totaling $191 million increased by 26.8% in 2000 over 1999, which increased by 6.3% over 1998.

    Loans at year-end 2000 of $1.29 billion increased by $121 million or 10.3% over year-end 1999. Commercial mortgage loans of $560 million increased by $32 million or 6.0%, real estate construction loans of $73 million increased by $27 million or 58.7% and commercial, financial and agricultural loans increased by $47 million or 24.8%.

    The slowdown in growth of core deposits adversely affected net interest margin and ratios related to funding trends during 2000. The ratio of average loans to core deposits as an indicator of funding trends was 131% in 2000, increasing from 125% in 1999 and 123% in 1998. Management views this as an adverse trend and is taking steps to improve this ratio through greater emphasis on core deposit growth and enhancing core relationships with loan customers.

    Average stockholders' equity as a percentage of total assets decreased to 8.6% from 9.4% in 1999 and 10.2% in 1998, as capital levels remained within Management's targets.

Asset/Liability Management

    The Company's earnings and capital are subject to risk of interest rate fluctuations to the extent the rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities mature or reprice during different periods or in differing amounts. Asset/liability management attempts to coordinate the Company's rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities to meet its financial objectives.

    The Company's asset/liability management policy is to maximize risk-adjusted return to shareholders while maintaining consistently acceptable levels of liquidity, interest rate risk and capitalization. The Company's asset/liability management committee monitors its interest rate risk through the use of income simulation and rate shock analyses. This process is designed to measure the impact of future changes in interest rates on net interest margin and market value of portfolio equity. Adverse exposures are managed through the shortening or lengthening of the duration of the Company's assets or liabilities.

    Table 7 sets forth information concerning interest rate sensitivity of the Company's assets, liabilities and stockholders' equity at December 31, 2000. The assumptions used in determining interest rate sensitivity of various asset and liability products had a significant impact on the resulting table. For purposes of this presentation, assets and liabilities are classified by the earliest re-pricing date or maturity. All interest-bearing demand and savings balances are included in the three months or less category, even though re-pricing of these accounts is not contractually required and may not actually occur during that period.

    As shown in Table 7, the amount of liabilities being re-priced exceeds the amount of assets in the three months or less through over six through twelve months categories. In the remaining time periods, re-pricing assets exceed re-pricing liabilities. Generally, where rate-sensitive liabilities exceed rate-sensitive assets in the short-term, net interest margin is expected to be negatively impacted when interest rates increase and positively impacted when interest rates decrease.

Capital Resources

    The Company's objective is to maintain a level of capital that will support sustained asset growth and anticipated credit risks and to ensure that regulatory guidelines and industry standards are met.

    Regulations on capital adequacy guidelines adopted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board") and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") are as follows. In 1989, a risk-based capital framework was adopted consisting of capital comprised of a core capital component (Tier I), essentially common stockholders' equity, less intangible assets, and a supplemental component (Tier II), which includes the allowance for loan losses up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets, and a system for assigning assets and off-balance sheet items to one of four risk-weighted categories. The capital standards require a minimum Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 4.00% and total risk-based capital ratio (Tier I plus Tier II) of 8.00%. The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have also adopted a 3.00% minimum leverage ratio which is Tier I capital as a percentage of total assets. Higher-risk banks as measured by the Federal regulatory rating system are expected to maintain capital above the minimum leverage ratio requirement.

    In addition, effective December 19, 1992, FDIC-insured institutions such as the Bank must maintain leverage capital ratio and Tier I and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5%, 6% and 10%, respectively, to be considered "well capitalized" under the prompt corrective action provisions of the FDIC Improvement Act of 1991.

    During 2000, the Company's board of directors authorized the repurchase and retirement of CPB Inc. common stock for a total consideration of $25 million, in addition to authorizations of $12 million in 1999 and $20 million in 1998. During 2000, 840,579 shares were repurchased for a total consideration of $20.9 million at an average price of $24.82 per share. For the three years ended December 31, 2000, the Company had repurchased 2,207,127 shares for a total consideration of $47.4 million at an average price of $21.46 per share, or approximately 20.8% of the 10.6 million shares outstanding prior to the initial repurchase transaction. The authorized remaining amount of repurchases was $9.6 million at December 31, 2000. Management expects to continue repurchases to enhance shareholder value based on the rate of the Company's future asset growth and ability to maintain well-capitalized levels of regulatory capital ratio.

    Capital levels for the Company and the Bank were in excess of minimum regulatory required levels at December 31, 2000 and 1999. The relatively low rate of asset growth in the last three years and increasing earnings contributed towards the excess.

Liquidity

    The Company's objective in managing its liquidity is to maintain a balance between sources and ses of funds in order to economically meet the cash requirements of customers for loans and deposit withdrawals and participate in investment opportunities as they arise. Management monitors the Company's liquidity position in relation to trends of loan demand and deposit growth on a daily basis to assure maximum utilization and maintenance of an adequate level of readily marketable assets and access to short-term funding sources.

    The consolidated statements of cash flows identify three major sources and uses of cash as operating, investing and financing activities. Cash generated from operations represents a major source of liquidity. As presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows on page 25 of this Annual Report, the Company's operating activities provided cash totaling $37 million, $13 million and $27 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase in 2000 over 1999 was due to fluctuations in other assets from bank-owned life insurance purchased in 1999 and other liabilities which increased in 1999 due to deferred income tax expense.

    Investing activities represent a use of cash. Net cash used in investing activities was $200 million in 2000, $49 million in 1999 and $78 million in 1998. The large increase in 2000 was due to increase in loans and investment securities. Cash used in net loan originations over principal repayments was $129 million in 2000, $74 million in 1999 and $70 million in 1998. Activities from investment securities

21


and interest-bearing deposits in other banks used cash of $54 million in 2000 and $5 million in 1998 and provided cash of $26 million in 1999.

    In addition to cash flows from operating activities, financing activities generally provide funding for growth in loans and investment securities with increased deposits supplemented by the Company's borrowing sources, which include short-term sources such as Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short- and long-term Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle advances.

    Deposits increased by $57 million in 2000, $37 million in 1999 and $76 million in 1998. The Company's total borrowings provided cash of $100 million in 2000 and $57 million in 1999 and used cash of $14 million in 1998. The increase in total borrowings in 2000 was due to the higher growth in loans and investment securities compared to deposit growth. The Company's loan to deposit ratio was 94.7% and 89.6% at year-end 2000 and 1999, respectively. Net cash used for repurchases of the Company's common stock was $21 million in 2000, $12 million in 1999 and $15 million in 1998. Accordingly, net cash provided by financing activities was $132 million in 2000, $77 million in 1999 and $43 million in 1998.

    The primary uses of funds, as reflected in the Company's parent company condensed statements of cash flows, were for the abovementioned repurchase of CPB Inc. common stock and $5.3 million, $5.2 million and $5.4 million for payment of dividends to shareholders in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company's primary source of funds was dividends received from the Bank. As presented in note 27 to the consolidated financial statements on page 44 of this Annual Report, the Bank's retained earnings, as defined, is the maximum amount permitted to be distributed as a dividend without prior regulatory approvals. At December 31, 2000, retained earnings of the Bank was $95 million.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

    During 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued statements on financial accounting standards which are discussed in note 28 to the consolidated financial statements on page 46 of this Annual Report. The statements are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    In the normal course of its business, the Company is exposed to market risk, primarily in the form of interest rate risk. Economic impact of interest rate risk may occur as interest rates change resulting in gains or losses in future net interest income, cash flows, or current fair market value. The Company utilizes product pricing and investment and debt management strategies to manage its interest rate risk.

    The following table presents information on the Company's financial instruments which are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Expected maturities of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are contractual maturities. Interest-bearing demand and savings deposits, which have indeterminate maturities, are included in the earliest maturity category. The resulting table is based on assumptions that include prepayment rates on mortgage-related assets and a forecast of market interest rates. See note 24 to the consolidated financial statements on page 41 and 42 of this Annual Report for a discussion of the calculation of fair values.

    At December 31, 2000, holdings of relatively shorter-term loans and investments and long-term borrowings increased from year-end 1999. Fair value of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities, as a percentage of book value, rose as market interest rates declined throughout the year. Maturities and fair values of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities may vary from expectations if actual experience differs from assumptions used.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CPB INC. AND SUBSIDIARY—YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000, 1999 AND 1998

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

    CPB Inc.'s (the "Company's") sole operating subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank"), is a full-service commercial bank which had 24 banking offices located throughout the state of Hawaii at December 31, 2000. The Bank engages in a broad range of lending activities including the granting of commercial, consumer and real estate loans. The Bank also offers a variety of deposit instruments. These include personal and business checking and savings accounts, money market accounts and time certificates of deposit.

    Other products and services include non-deposit investment products, debit and credit card services, Internet banking services, cash management services, traveler's checks, safe deposit boxes, international banking services, night depository facilities and wire transfer services. The Bank's Trust and Investment Management Division also offers investment management, asset custody and general consultation and planning services.

    The Bank's business depends on rate differentials, the difference between the interest rate paid by the Bank on its deposits and other borrowings and the interest rate received by the Bank on loans extended to its customers and investment securities held in the Bank's portfolio. These rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control of the Bank. Accordingly, the earnings and growth of the Company are subject to the influence of domestic and foreign economic conditions, including inflation, recession and unemployment.

Principles of Consolidation

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CPB Inc. and its subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank and its subsidiaries, CPB Properties, Inc. (wholly-owned) and CPB Real Estate, Inc. CPB Real Estate, Inc. was incorporated in 1998 and was formed for the purpose of acquiring, holding and managing real estate mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    During 1997, CPB Inc. formed a limited liability company with Source Management LLC to create a residential mortgage brokerage firm named Trans-Pacific Mortgage Group LLC, of which the Company owned 49%. In December 1999, the Company relinquished its ownership interest in Trans-Pacific Mortgage Group LLC. The investment was accounted for by the equity method.

    CPB Properties, Inc. is a general partner with a 50% interest in CKSS Associates, a limited partnership. The investment is accounted for by the equity method.

    For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include cash and due from banks.

Investment Securities

    The Company accounts for its investment securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," which requires that investments in debt securities and marketable equity securities be designated as trading, held to maturity or available for sale. Trading securities, of which the Company

29


had none at December 31, 2000 and 1999, would be reported at fair value, with changes in fair value included in earnings. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with net unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Held-to-maturity debt securities are reported at amortized cost.

    Gains and losses from the disposition of investment securities are computed using the specific identification method.

Loans

    Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income. Unearned income represents net deferred loan fees which are recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield.

    Interest income on loans is generally recognized on an accrual basis. Loans are 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. A nonaccrual loan may be restored to an accrual basis when principal and interest payments are current and full payment of principal and interest is expected.

Allowance for Loan Losses

    The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged off against the allowance, and all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Subsequent receipts, if any, are credited first to the remaining principal, then to the allowance as recoveries, and finally to unaccrued interest.

    The Company, considering current information and events regarding the borrowers' ability to repay their obligations, treats a loan as impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, if the loan is considered to be collateral dependent, based on the fair value of the collateral. Impairment losses are included in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis unless the loan is placed on nonaccrual status.

    For smaller-balance homogeneous loans (primarily residential real estate and consumer loans), the allowance for loan losses is based upon Management's evaluation of the quality, character and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, current and projected economic conditions, and past loan loss experience. Delinquent consumer loans are charged off within 120 days, unless determined to be adequately collateralized or in imminent process of collection.

Premises and Equipment

    Premises and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are included in other operating expense and are computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the applicable leases, whichever is shorter. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized, while recurring maintenance and repairs

30


are charged to operating expense. Net gains or losses on dispositions of premises and equipment are included in other operating expense.

Intangible Assets

    Intangible assets are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value and are included in other assets. Intangible assets totaled $954,000 and $1,153,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Amortization expense amounted to $308,000, $322,000 and $262,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Accumulated amortization amounted to $1,562,000 and $1,254,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Other Real Estate

    Other real estate is composed of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings. Properties acquired through foreclosure are valued at fair value which establishes the new cost basis of other real estate. Losses arising at the time of acquisition of such properties are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to acquisition, such properties are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling expenses, determined on an individual asset basis. Any deficiency resulting from the excess of cost over fair value less estimated selling expenses is recognized as a valuation allowance. Any subsequent increase in fair value up to its cost basis is recorded as a reduction of the valuation allowance. Increases or decreases in the valuation allowance are included in other operating expense. Net gains or losses recognized on the sale of these properties are included in other operating income.

Stock Option Plans

    Prior to January 1, 1996, the Company accounted for its stock option plan in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations, whereby compensation expense would be recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which permits entities to recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock option grants made in 1995 and future years as if the fair-value based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.

Income Taxes

    Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized using the asset and liability method for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income taxes in the period that includes the enactment date.

Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts

    The Bank periodically is a party to a limited amount of forward foreign exchange contracts to satisfy customer requirements for foreign currencies. These contracts are not utilized for trading purposes and are carried at market value, with realized gains and losses included in fees on foreign

31


exchange. Net losses for 2000 and 1999 totaled $1,000 and $2,000, respectively. There were no gains or losses in 1998.

Use of Estimates

    The Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements. With respect to the allowance for loan losses, the Company believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for potential losses on loans and other extensions of credit, including off-balance sheet credit exposures. While the Company utilizes available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, particularly in the state of Hawaii. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

    Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the previous two years have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the Company's results of operations.

2. RESERVE REQUIREMENTS

    The Bank is required by the Federal Reserve Bank to maintain reserves based on the amount of deposits held. The amount held as a reserve at December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $30,127,000 and $61,316,000, respectively.

    In the normal course of business, the Bank has made loans to certain directors, executive officers and their affiliates under terms consistent with the Bank's general lending policies. An analysis of the activity of such loans in 2000 follows:

(Dollars in thousands)

   
 
Balance, beginning of year   $ 6,587  
Additions     1,097  
Repayments     (2,433 )
Other changes     (699 )
   
 
  Balance, end of year   $ 4,552  
   
 

    The amount of other changes is primarily attributable to the writedown of a loan to a not-for-profit organization on whose board certain officers and directors serve.

    Impaired loans at December 31, 2000 and 1999, all of which had related allowance for loan losses established (see note 5), amounted to $11,304,000 and $6,089,000, respectively, and included all nonaccrual and restructured loans greater than $500,000. The average recorded investment in impaired loans amounted to $8,124,000 in 2000, $9,533,000 in 1999 and $20,199,000 in 1998. Interest income recognized on such loans amounted to $130,000 in 2000, $350,000 in 1999 and $749,000 in 1998, of which $93,000, $260,000 and $3,000, respectively, was earned on nonaccrual loans, and $37,000, $1,000, was recorded in 2000 and 1999, respectively, on restructured loans still accruing interest.

    Nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2000 and 1999 totaled $8,524,000 and $9,695,000, respectively. The Bank collected and recognized interest income of $44,000 on nonaccrual loans in 2000. The Bank would have recognized additional interest income of $751,000 had these loans been accruing interest throughout 2000. Additionally, the Bank collected and recognized interest income of $155,000 on charged-off loans in 2000.

    Restructured loans still accruing interest at December 31, 2000 and 1999 amounted to $466,000 and $500,000, respectively.

7. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

CKSS ASSOCIATES

    CPB Properties, Inc. is a general partner with a 50% interest in CKSS Associates, a limited partnership. The partnership developed an office building complex in Honolulu known as Central Pacific Plaza, part of which serves as the Company's headquarters. CPB Properties, Inc. contributed cash of $846,000 and land with a carrying value of $1,381,000. CPB Properties, Inc. recorded its contribution to the partnership at book value. The partnership has agreed to a value of $5,200,000 for the land and has credited the subsidiary with a contribution of $6,046,000. For accounting purposes, the difference between the $1,381,000 carrying value of the land and the $5,200,000 value of the land agreed upon by the partnership in determining the amount of the contribution would be recognized, if at all, only upon the sale of the subsidiary's interest in the partnership or upon the sale of the land and building by the partnership.

Notes Payable

    At December 31, 2000, notes payable included $6,801,000 payable to The Sumitomo Bank, Limited ("Sumitomo"), a stockholder of CPB Inc., and $8,400,000 due to the Bank. The notes payable to

37


Sumitomo, due on June 18, 2001, are secured by a mortgage on Central Pacific Plaza. The notes payable to the Bank include $8,300,000 due on August 10, 2001, which is secured by a mortgage on the Kaimuki Plaza, and $100,000 due on April 10, 2001, which is secured by second mortgages on the Central Pacific Plaza and Kaimuki Plaza properties. The notes payable bear interest at either a fixed rate or a variable rate based upon the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or the Federal funds rate. The weighted average interest rate on these notes was 7.018% at December 31, 2000.

Operating Lease

    In 1995 CKSS Associates completed its development of a four-story office building known as the Kaimuki Plaza in Kaimuki, on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, on land owned by CPB Properties, Inc. In 1992, CKSS Associates and CPB Properties, Inc. entered into a lease agreement effective from January 1, 1993 to December 31, 2047. This lease agreement has been accounted for as an operating lease. Fixed annual lease payments through 2007 are $300,000 for 2001 through 2002 and $360,000 for 2003 through 2007. Thereafter, and until the end of the lease term, minimum annual lease payments will be renegotiated to a rate not less than $360,000 per year. Lease rent paid to CPB Properties, Inc. totaled $300,000 during each of the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998.

8. DEPOSITS

    Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more totaled $418,405,000 and $346,905,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

    Interest expense on certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more totaled $21,430,000, $16,132,000, and $16,640,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

9. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

    Federal funds purchased generally mature on the day following the date of purchase.

    Securities sold under agreements to repurchase with a weighted average contractual maturity of 53 days at December 31, 2000, were treated as financings, and the obligations to repurchase the identical securities sold were reflected as a liability with the dollar amount of securities underlying the agreements remaining in the asset accounts. At December 31, 2000, the underlying securities were held in a custodial account subject to Bank control.

    Other short-term borrowings consist primarily of the Treasury Tax and Loan balance, which represents tax payments collected on behalf of the U.S. government, and FHLB short-term advances. The Treasury Tax and Loan balances bear market interest rates and are callable at any time.

10. LONG-TERM DEBT

    Long-term debt at December 31, 2000 and 1999 consisted of intermediate-term FHLB advances with a weighted average interest rate of 6.532% and 6.029%, respectively. FHLB advances outstanding at December 31, 2000 were secured by interest-bearing deposits at the FHLB of $11.5 million, the Bank's holdings of FHLB stock, other unencumbered investment securities with a fair value of $176.7 million and certain real estate loans totaling $285.5 million in accordance with the collateral provisions of the Advances, Security and Deposit Agreement between the Bank and the FHLB. At December 31, 2000, the Bank had available to it additional unused FHLB advances of approximately $106.9 million.

    At December 31, 2000, approximate maturities of FHLB advances were as follows:

11. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

    On August 26, 1998, the Company's board of directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan") which entitled holders of common stock to receive one right for each share of common stock outstanding as of September 16, 1998. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share of the Company's Junior Participating Preferred Stock, Series A, no par value per share, at a price of $75.00 per one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, subject to adjustment. The rights are exercisable only upon the occurrence of specific events and will expire on August 26, 2008. The Rights Plan was designed to ensure that shareholders receive fair and equal treatment in the event of unsolicited or coercive attempts to acquire the Company. The Rights Plan was also intended to guard against unfair tender offers and other abusive takeover tactics. The Rights Plan was not intended to prevent an acquisition bid for the Company on terms that are fair to all shareholders.

12. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

    The Bank has an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") and related trust covering substantially all full-time employees with at least one year of service. Normal vesting occurs at the rate of 20% per year starting the second year of participation. The Bank made contributions of $649,000, $1,280,000 and $1,241,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively, which were charged to salaries and employee benefits. Effective January 1, 2000, contributions to the profit sharing plan and ESOP combined were reduced from 10% to 5% of defined net income.

13. STOCK OPTION PLANS

    The Company has adopted stock option plans for the purpose of granting options to purchase CPB Inc. common stock to directors, officers and other key individuals. Options are granted with an exercise price equal to the stock's fair market value at the date of grant. All options have 10-year terms. Incentive stock options vest at the rate of 20% per year while nonqualified stock options, which do not qualify as incentive stock options ("nonqualified stock options"), vest annually over the respective periods.

    In November 1986, the Company adopted the 1986 Stock Option Plan ("1986 Plan") making available 440,000 shares for grants to employees. In 1992, the Company's stockholders approved an increase to 1,040,000 shares for grants. The 1986 Plan expired in 1997, and no new options will be granted under this plan. Outstanding options may be exercised by optionees until the expiration of the respective options in accordance with the original terms of the 1986 Plan.

    In February 1997, the Company adopted the 1997 Stock Option Plan ("1997 Plan") basically as a continuance of the previous plan for a 10-year term. In April 1997, the Company's stockholders approved the 1997 Plan which provides for 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for grants to employees as qualified incentive stock options and to directors as nonqualified stock options. During 1997, in addition to employee grants, each director of the Company and the Bank received a grant based on 1,500 shares multiplied by the lesser of 10 years or the number of years to age 70. Vesting is 1,500 shares annually beginning a year from July 30, 1997, the date of grant.

    The table below presents activity of the 1986 and 1997 Stock Option Plans for the years indicated. The per share weighted average fair value of options granted during 2000, 1999, 1997 and 1995 of $10.90, $9.53, $5.47 and $4.54, respectively, was determined using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected dividend yield of 2.33%, 2.32%, 2.63% and 3.07%, expected volatility of 43%, 36%, 28% and 30%, risk-free interest rate of 5.04%,

40


6.25%, 5.45% and 6.10% and expected life of 7.5 years for 2000, 1999, 1997 and 1995, respectively. There were no grants in 1998 or 1996.

    The following table presents information on options outstanding under the 1986 and 1997 Stock Option Plans:

    The Company applied APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its stock option plans, and accordingly, no compensation cost was recognized for its options in the consolidated financial statements. The following table presents pro forma disclosures of the impact that the 2000, 1999, 1997 and 1995 option grants would have had on net income and earnings per share had the grants been measured using the fair value of accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 123.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

  1998
As reported:                  
  Net income   $ 19,434   $ 16,326   $ 15,069
  Basic earnings per share     2.18     1.70     1.46
  Diluted earnings per share     2.14     1.68     1.45
Pro forma:                  
  Net income   $ 19,113   $ 16,090   $ 14,851
  Basic earnings per share     2.14     1.68     1.44
  Diluted earnings per share     2.10     1.66     1.43
   
 
 

    Pro forma net income and earnings per share reflect only those options granted since 1995. Therefore, the full impact of calculating compensation cost for options under SFAS No. 123 is not reflected in the pro forma net income and earnings per share amounts presented above because

41


compensation cost is reflected over the options' vesting period of five years and compensation cost for options granted prior to January 1, 1995 is not considered.

14. SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

    On December 16, 1986, the Company's stockholders ratified a Share Purchase Agreement which gives Sumitomo the right to purchase newly issued common stock of the Company for the purpose of maintaining its pro rata ownership interest in the Company. Pursuant to the agreement, warrants were issued giving Sumitomo the right to purchase shares at fair market value at the time such warrants are exercised, contingent upon the exercise of stock options by the optionees and subject to the approval of the Federal Reserve Board. At December 31, 2000, Sumitomo held exercisable warrants for 48,860 shares and warrants for 25,821 shares which will be exercisable as stock options are exercised by the optionees. All warrants will expire on June 14, 2006. No warrants were exercised during the three-year period ended December 31, 2000.

15. PENSION PLANS

    The Bank has a defined benefit retirement plan covering substantially all of its employees. The plan was curtailed in 1986, and accordingly, plan benefits were fixed as of that date.

    The Bank also had a money purchase pension plan which covered all full-time employees with at least one year of service. This plan was terminated in 1991 as part of a review of the employee benefits program. Participants in the money purchase pension plan became fully vested at the time of termination.

    Effective January 1, 1991, the Bank reactivated its defined benefit retirement plan to address changes brought about by the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1990 and to provide a more competitive employee benefit program. As a result of the reactivation, employees for whom benefits became fixed in 1986 continued to accrue additional benefits under the new formula that became effective on January 1, 1991. Employees who were not participants at curtailment, but were subsequently eligible to join, became participants effective January 1, 1991. Under the reactivated plan, benefits are based upon the employees' years of service and their highest average annual salaries in a 60-consecutive-month period of service, reduced by benefits provided from the Bank's terminated money purchase pension plan. The reactivation of the defined benefit retirement plan on January 1, 1991 resulted in an increase of $5,914,000 in the unrecognized prior service cost, which is being amortized over a period of 13 years.

16. PROFIT SHARING AND 401(K) PLANS

    The Bank's profit sharing plan covers substantially all employees with at least one year of service. The board of directors has sole discretion in determining the annual contribution to the plan, subject to limitations of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees may elect to receive up to 50% of their annual allocation in cash. The Bank made contributions of $649,000, $853,000 and $826,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

    Effective March 31, 1996, the profit sharing plan was merged with an existing employee-funded 401(k) plan which allows employees to direct their own investments. Effective September 1, 1996, the Bank instituted a 50% employer-matching program for the 401(k) plan, contributing up to 2% of qualifying employees' salaries. Bank contributions to the 401(k) plan totaled $651,000, $334,000 and $318,000 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

    Effective January 1, 2000, combined contributions to the profit sharing plan and ESOP were reduced from 10% to 5% of defined net income, while contributions to the Bank's 401(k) plan increased from 50% to 100% of employee contributions up to 4% of the employee's salary.

17. OPERATING LEASES

    The Bank occupies a number of properties under leases which expire on various dates through 2038 and, in most instances, provide for renegotiation of rental terms at fixed intervals. These leases generally contain renewal options for periods ranging from 5 to 15 years.

    Total rent expense represents gross rent expense less the net operating income from Company—owned properties of $499,000, $544,000 and $459,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

    Net rent expense, charged to net occupancy expense, for all operating leases is summarized as follows:

    In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, Management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers projected

47


future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. There was no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2000 and 1999.

    In 1998, the Company completed a corporate reorganization which was intended to reduce the Company's overall effective tax rate. The Company believes that the associated tax benefits are realizable; however, the state of Hawaii has indicated that it may challenge the tax treatment of this reorganization. Estimated tax benefits which have not yet been recognized amounted to approximately $3,600,000 as of December 31, 2000.

20. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

    Components of other comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were comprised solely of unrealized holding (losses) gains on available-for-sale investment securities. Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes, is presented below as of the dates indicated:

22. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

    The Company and its subsidiary are involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

48


    In the normal course of business, there are outstanding contingent liabilities and other commitments, such as unused letters of credit, items held for collection and unsold traveler's checks, which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Management does not anticipate any material losses as a result of these transactions.

23. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

    The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written, and forward foreign exchange contracts. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and foreign exchange risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Bank has in particular classes of financial instruments.

    The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. For forward foreign exchange contracts, the contract amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss. The Bank controls the credit risk of its forward foreign exchange contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

    At December 31, 2000 and 1999 financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk were as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)

  2000
  1999
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:            
  Commitments to extend credit   $ 307,763   $ 322,464
  Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written     20,390     12,864
   
 
Financial instruments whose contract amounts exceed the amount of credit risk:            
  Forward foreign exchange contracts   $ 161   $ 243
   
 

    Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on Management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

    Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank holds collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

    Forward foreign exchange contracts represent commitments to purchase or sell foreign currencies at a future date at a specified price. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

24. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," as amended by SFAS No. 119, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions are set forth below for the Company's 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 banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, Federal funds sold, accrued interest receivable, due from customers on acceptances, short-term borrowings, bank acceptances outstanding and accrued interest payable.

Investment Securities

    The fair value of investment securities is based on market price quotations received from securities dealers. Where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities. The equity investment in common stock of the FHLB, which is redeemable for cash at par value, is reported at its par value.

Loans

    The fair value of loans is estimated based on discounted cash flows of portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics including the type of loan, interest terms and repayment history. The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risks inherent in the loans. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows, and discount rates are judgmentally determined using available market information and specific borrower information.

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

50


fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

  Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written     20,390     153     12,864     97
  Forward foreign exchange contracts     161     (1 )   43    

Long-Term Debt

    The fair value of FHLB advances is estimated by discounting scheduled cash flows over the contractual borrowing period at the estimated market rate for similar borrowing arrangements.

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 the Bank's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Bank's 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

51


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. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in many of the estimates.

25. DECLARATION OF DIVIDENDS

    The Company's board of directors, at a special meeting held on December 18, 2000, declared a fourth quarter cash dividend of $0.16 per share, in addition to the three quarterly cash dividends previously declared, for a total of $0.61 per share for the year ended December 31, 2000.

26. SEGMENT INFORMATION

    The Company has three reportable segments: retail banking, commercial finance and treasury. The segments reported are consistent with internal functional reporting lines. They are managed separately because each unit has different target markets, technological requirements, marketing strategies and specialized skills. The retail banking segment includes all retail branch offices. Products and services offered include checking, savings, money market and time deposits; real estate, commercial and consumer loans; safe deposit boxes; and various other bank services. The commercial finance segment focuses on lending to corporate customers; construction and real estate development lending; and international banking services. The treasury segment is responsible for managing the Company's investment securities portfolio and wholesale funding activities.

    The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in note 1. The majority of the Company's net income is derived from net interest income. Accordingly, Management focuses primarily on net interest income (expense), rather than gross interest income and expense amounts, in evaluating segment profitability. Intersegment net interest income (expense) is allocated to each segment based on the amount of net investable funds provided (used) by that segment at a rate equal to the Bank's average rate on interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. All administrative and overhead expenses are allocated to the segments at cost. Cash, investment securities, loans and their related balances are allocated to the segment responsible for acquisition and maintenance of those assets. Segment assets also include all premises and equipment used directly in segment operations.

27. PARENT COMPANY AND REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS

    At December 31, 2000, retained earnings of the parent company, CPB Inc., included $93,849,000 of equity in undistributed income of the Bank.

    The Bank, as a Hawaii state-chartered bank, is prohibited from declaring or paying dividends greater than its retained earnings. As of December 31, 2000, retained earnings of the Bank totaled $95,196,000.

    Section 131 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA") required the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision (collectively, the "Agencies") to develop a mechanism to take prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions. The final rules to implement FDICIA's Prompt Corrective Action provisions established minimum regulatory capital standards to determine an insured depository institution's capital category. However, the Agencies may impose higher minimum standards on individual institutions or may downgrade an institution from one capital category to a lower capital category because of safety and soundness concerns.

    The Prompt Corrective Action provisions impose certain restrictions on institutions that are undercapitalized. The restrictions become increasingly more severe as an institution's capital category declines from undercapitalized to critically undercapitalized. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Bank's regulatory capital ratios exceeded the minimum thresholds for a "well-capitalized" institution.

    The following table sets forth actual and required capital and capital ratios for the Company and the Bank as of the dates indicated:

28. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133, an Amendment of SFAS Statement No. 133," which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 133. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 138 amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS No. 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities. SFAS No. 133, as amended, is now effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The application of SFAS No. 133, as amended, effective from January 1, 2001, did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

    In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS No. 140 supersedes and replaces SFAS No. 125 of the same name and provides accounting and reporting guidance for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. The provisions of SFAS No. 140 are to be applied prospectively to transactions occurring after March 31, 2001. The application of SFAS No. 140 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.


INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Stockholders and Board of Directors of CPB Inc.:

    We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CPB Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2000. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

    We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CPB Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

    The Company and its predecessor have paid regular semi-annual cash dividends on the common stock since 1958. Beginning in 1988, the Company commenced paying regular quarterly cash dividends. It is the present intention of the Company's board of directors to continue to pay regular quarterly cash dividends. However, since substantially all of the funds available for the payment of dividends are derived from Central Pacific Bank, future dividends will depend upon the Bank's earnings, its financial condition, its capital needs, applicable governmental policies and regulations and such other matters as the Company's board of directors may deem to be appropriate.
