Equity [Abstract] |
EQUITY | 13. EQUITY As a Hawaii state-chartered bank, Central Pacific Bank may only pay dividends to the extent it has retained earnings as defined under Hawaii banking law ("Statutory Retained Earnings"), which differs from GAAP retained earnings. As of December 31, 2018, the bank had Statutory Retained Earnings of $46.6 million. Dividends are payable at the discretion of the Board of Directors and there can be no assurance that the Board of Directors will continue to pay dividends at the same rate, or at all, in the future. Our ability to pay cash dividends to our shareholders is subject to restrictions under federal and Hawaii law, including restrictions imposed by the FRB and covenants set forth in various agreements we are a party to, including covenants set forth in our subordinated debentures. We repurchase shares of our common stock when we believe such repurchases are in the best interests of the Company. On May 20, 2014, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase and retirement of up to $30.0 million of the Company's outstanding common stock (the "2014 Repurchase Plan"). In January 2015, our Board of Directors increased the authorization under the 2014 Repurchase Plan by $25.0 million. In March 2015, our Board of Directors increased the authorization under the 2014 Repurchase Plan by an additional $75.0 million. In the year ended December 31, 2015, we repurchased 4,122,881 shares of common stock, at a cost of $93.5 million, excluding fees and expenses, under the 2014 Repurchase Plan. In January 2016, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30.0 million of the Company's common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a newly authorized share repurchase program (the "2016 Repurchase Plan"). The 2016 Repurchase Plan replaces and supersedes in its entirety the 2014 Repurchase Plan previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors. In the year ended December 31, 2016, 796,822 shares of common stock, at a cost of $18.2 million, were repurchased under the 2016 Repurchase Plan. In January 2017, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30.0 million of the Company's common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a newly authorized share repurchase program (the "2017 Repurchase Plan"). The 2017 Repurchase Plan replaced and superseded in its entirety the 2016 Repurchase Plan previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors. In January 2017, prior to the 2017 Repurchase Plan being approved, 1,750 shares of common stock, at a cost of $0.1 million, were repurchased under the 2016 Repurchase Plan. In November 2017, the Board of Directors authorized an increase in the share repurchase program authority by an additional $50.0 million (known henceforth as the "Repurchase Plan"). There is no expiration date on the Repurchase Plan. In the year ended December 31, 2017, 862,733 shares of common stock, at a cost of $26.5 million, were repurchased under the Repurchase Plan. In the year ended December 31, 2018, 1,155,157 shares of common stock, at a cost of $32.8 million, were repurchased under the Repurchase Plan. A total of $20.7 million remained available for repurchase under the Repurchase Plan at December 31, 2018.
