Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Central Pacific Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries (herein referred to as the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been made and include all normal recurring adjustments. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.
Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans | Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans is a valuation account deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected. The Company’s policy is to charge off loans against the ACL in the period they are deemed uncollectible. Any previously accrued but uncollected interest, is reversed against current period interest income. Subsequent receipts, if any, are applied first to the remaining principal, then to the ACL on loans as recoveries, and finally to interest income. The ACL on loans represents management's estimate of expected credit losses over the life of the Company’s loan portfolio as of a given balance sheet date. Management estimates the ACL balance using relevant internal and external information, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. When future forecasts are no longer supportable, management reverts to historical loss data. The Company's ACL model incorporates a one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period and reverts to historical loss data on a straight-line basis over one year when its forecast is no longer deemed reasonable and supportable. Historical loss experience provides the basis for the Company’s expected credit loss estimate. Adjustments to historical loss data may be made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics, such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or when historical asset terms do not reflect the contractual terms of the financial assets being evaluated. The Company's ACL model may also consider other adjustments to address changes in conditions, trends, and circumstances such as local industry changes that could have a significant impact on the risk profile of the loan portfolio and provide for adjustments that may not be reflected or captured in the historical loss data. These factors include: lending policies and practices, imprecision in forecasting future economic conditions, loan profile, lending staff, problem loan trends, loan review, collateral values, credit concentrations, or other internal and external factors. The Company uses Moody’s Analytics ("Moody's"), a firm widely recognized and used for its research, analysis, and economic forecasts, for its economic forecast assumptions. The Company generally uses Moody’s most recent Baseline forecast, which is updated at least monthly with a variety of upside and downside economic scenarios and considers both national and Hawaii-specific economic indicators. In addition, the Company uses a qualitative factor for forecast imprecision to account for economic and market volatility or instability. The ACL on loans is measured on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The following is a description of the risk characteristics of each segment: Commercial and industrial loans Commercial and industrial loans consist primarily of term loans and lines of credit to small- and middle-market businesses and professionals. The predominant risk characteristics of this segment are the cash flows of the business we lend to, global cash flows including guarantor liquidity, as well as economic and market conditions. Although our underwriting policy and practice generally requires secondary sources of support or collateral to mitigate risk, cash flow generated from the borrower’s business is typically regarded as the principal source of repayment. Construction loans Construction loans include both residential and commercial development projects. Each construction project is evaluated for economic viability and construction loans pose higher credit risks than typical secured loans. The predominant risk characteristics of this segment are the financial strength of the borrower, project completion risk (the risk that the project will not be completed on time and within budget), and geographic location. Commercial real estate loans - Multi-family Multi-family mortgage loans can comprise multi-building properties with extensive amenities or a single building with no amenities. The predominant risk characteristic of this segment is operating risk or the ability to generate sufficient rental income from the operation of the property. Commercial real estate loans - Others Commercial real estate loans are secured by commercial properties. The predominant risk characteristic of this segment is operating risk, which is the risk that the borrower will be unable to generate sufficient cash flows from the operation of the property. Interest rate conditions and the commercial real estate market through economic cycles also impact risk levels. Residential mortgage loans Residential mortgage loans primarily includes fixed-rate or adjustable-rate loans secured by single-family owner-occupied primary residences in Hawaii. Economic conditions such as unemployment levels, future changes in interest rates, Hawaii home prices and other market factors impact the level of credit risk inherent in the portfolio. Home equity lines of credit Home equity lines of credit include fixed or floating interest rate loans and are also primarily secured by single-family owner-occupied primary residences in Hawaii. They are underwritten based on a minimum FICO score, maximum debt-to-income ratio, and maximum combined loan-to-value ratio. Home equity lines of credit are monitored based on credit score changes, delinquency, and draw period maturity. Consumer loans Consumer loans consist of unsecured consumer lines of credit and non-revolving (term) consumer loans, including automobile loans. The predominant risk characteristics of this segment relate to current and projected economic conditions, as well as employment and income levels attributed to the borrower. During second quarter of 2025, the Company updated its ACL model to combine revolving and non-revolving consumer loans under the DCF methodology due to immateriality of the revolving loan portfolio. The impact of this update was immaterial. Purchased consumer loans Purchased consumer loans consist of automobile and unsecured consumer loans. The predominant risk characteristics of this segment include current and projected economic conditions, employment and income levels, and the quality of purchased consumer loans. The following table presents the Company's loan portfolio segments and the methodology used to measure expected credit losses. The historical look-back period is 2008 to present, economic forecast length is one year and the reversion method is one year (on a straight-line basis) for all segments.
Segment |  | Expected Credit Loss Methodology |  |  |  | Historical Look-Back Period |  | Economic Forecast Length |  | Reversion Method
Commercial and industrial |  | DCF |  |  |  | 2008 to present |  | One year |  | One year (straight-line basis)
Construction |  | DCF |  |  |  |  |
Commercial real estate - Multi-family |  | DCF |  |  |  |  |
Commercial real estate - All others |  | DCF |  |  |  |  |
Residential mortgage |  | DCF |  |  |  |  |
Home equity |  | DCF |  |  |  |  |
Consumer |  | DCF |  |  |  |  |
Consumer - Purchased |  | WARM |  |  |  |  |
During the third quarter of 2023, the Company updated its methodology for measuring expected credit losses from the Probability of Default/Loss Given Default ("PD/LGD") and Loss-Rate Migration approaches to the Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") methodology for all segments, except for Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program ("SBA PPP") loans and purchased consumer loans. The Company believes the DCF methodology provides better alignment with the Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") standard by incorporating more granular assumptions and forward-looking forecasts. The DCF analysis is performed using an industry-leading software platform and leverages historical data from 2008 to present. The Company uses the Moody's baseline forecast, which includes a one-year economic forecast period, followed by a one-year, straight-line reversion to the historical averages of the macroeconomic variables used. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company updated its forecast models to incorporate post-COVID-19 pandemic data, while continuing to exclude periods impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic period due to abnormal and volatile behavior. For purchased consumer loans, the Company applies the Remaining Life methodology, also known as the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity or ("WARM") methodology, due to the pooled nature of this portfolio. The following is a description of the methodologies utilized to measure expected credit losses from the third quarter of 2023 to present: Discounted Cash Flow The DCF methodology estimates CECL reserves as the difference between the amortized cost of a loan and the present value of expected future cash flows. Expected future cash flows are projected based on assumptions of PD/LGD, prepayments and recovery rates. The expected cash flows are discounted using the loan’s effective interest rate. Remaining Life or Weighted Average Remaining Maturity Under the Remaining Life, or WARM methodology, lifetime expected credit losses are calculated by applying a historical loss rate over this remaining life of the loan pool. The remaining life is adjusted for expected prepayments. This method is used for pooled portfolios where individual loan-level modeling is not practical.
Impact of Other Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements on Future Filings | Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements on Future Filings In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". ASU 2023-09 enhances income tax disclosure requirements by requiring public business entities to provide expanded information in the rate reconciliation, including specific categories and additional qualitative detail, as well as disaggregated disclosures about income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and are to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted ASU 2023‑09 effective January 1, 2025, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company will include the new disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ending December 31, 2025. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses". ASU 2024-03 requires public entities to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, disaggregated information about specified categories of expenses included within income statement line items. The amendments in ASU 2024‑03 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑05, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets," which introduces a practical expedient for current accounts receivable and contract assets under ASC Topic 606. The practical expedient, if elected, allows entities to assume that current economic conditions at the reporting date remain unchanged over the related asset’s remaining life. The amendments, which are to be applied prospectively, are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements from adopting ASU 2025‑05 during the first quarter of 2026. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal‑Use Software (Subtopic 350‑40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal‑Use Software," which clarifies and modernizes the guidance for costs related to internal‑use software. The amendments remove references to project stages and clarify the capitalization threshold for software development costs. ASU 2025‑06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑07, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract." The ASU introduces a scope exception from derivative accounting for certain non-exchange-traded contracts with underlyings based on the operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract, such as ESG-linked metrics or litigation funding arrangements. Additionally, the ASU clarifies that share-based noncash consideration received from a customer for the transfer of goods or services should initially be accounted for under Topic 606, with other guidance (e.g., Topic 815 or Topic 321) applied only when the right to receive or retain such consideration becomes unconditional. ASU 2025-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities may apply the guidance prospectively to new contracts or on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings in the year of adoption. The Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements from adopting ASU 2025‑07 during the first quarter of 2027.
