NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
CB BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTE A – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CB Bancshares, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”): City Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Bank”); Datatronix Financial Services, Inc. (“Datatronix”); and O.R.E., Inc. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Bank owns 50% of Pacific Access Mortgage, LLC, a mortgage brokerage company. The investment is accounted for using the equity method. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial results for the interim periods.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for 2002 have been reclassified to conform with the 2003 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated net income as previously reported.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 143. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” which requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs would be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and depreciated over the life of the asset. The liability is accreted at the end of each period through charges to operating expense. If the obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, the Company will recognize a gain or loss on settlement. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

SFAS No. 146. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities. The provisions of this Statement

Table of Contents

are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 on January 1, 2003 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

SFAS No. 148. In December 2002, SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123 was issued. This Statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. As allowed by SFAS No. 123 (as amended by SFAS No. 148), the Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had previously completed the transition and had fully applied these new accounting standards.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the Black Scholes options-pricing model. The weighted average fair value of options granted during 2002 and 2001, which would impact the net income as reported for the year ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, was $8.77 and $9.82, respectively. For grants in 2002 and 2001, the following weighted average assumptions were used; expected dividend of 1.03% and 1.25%, expected volatility of 19.00% and 23.00%, risk-free interest rate of 5.55% and 4.55% and expected life of 5.0 years and 6.0 years.

FASB Interpretation No. 46. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51. This Interpretation addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities as defined in the Interpretation. The Interpretation applies immediately to variable interests in variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interests in variable interest entities obtained after January 31, 2003. At March 31, 2003, the Company had no significant variable interests in a variable interest entity requiring consolidation or disclosure in accordance with the Interpretation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains statements relating to future results of the Company (including certain projections and business trends) that are considered “forward-looking statements.” Actual results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, changes in political and economic conditions, interest rate fluctuations, competitive product and pricing pressures within the Company’s market, equity and bond market fluctuations, personal and corporate customers’ bankruptcies and financial condition, inflation and results of litigation. Accordingly, historical performance, as well as reasonably applied projections and assumptions, may not be a reliable indicator of future earnings due to risks and uncertainties. As circumstances, conditions or events change that affect the Company’s assumptions and projections on which any of the statements are based, the Company disclaims any obligation to issue any update or revision to any forward-looking statement contained herein.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to its investments, loans and allowance for loan losses, intangible assets, income taxes, contingencies, and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on current market conditions, historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making

9


Table of Contents

judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements require significant judgments and estimates.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The allowance for credit losses is periodically evaluated for adequacy by management. Factors considered include the Company’s loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, known adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, regulatory policies, and the estimated value of underlying collateral. The evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the above factors along with prevailing economic conditions that may impact borrowers’ ability to repay loans. Determination of the allowance is in part objective and in part a subjective judgment by management given the information it currently has in its possession. Adverse changes in any of these factors or the discovery of new adverse information could result in higher charge-offs and loan loss provisions.

Impairment of Investments. The realization of the Company’s investment in certain mortgage/asset-backed securities and collateralized loan and bond obligations is dependent on the credit quality of the underlying borrowers and yields demanded by the marketplace. Increases in market interest rates and deteriorating credit quality of the underlying borrowers because of adverse conditions may result in additional losses. The Company records an investment impairment charge when it believes an investment has experienced a decline in value that is other than temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments that may not be reflected in an investment’s current carrying value, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future. Since the collateralized loan and bond obligations do not have a liquid trading market, management’s estimate of value is based upon estimates of future returns that may or may not actually be realized. Accordingly, under different assumptions, the value could be adversely affected. As of March 31, 2003, approximately $34.3 million of these investments were carried on the books of the Company with a market value of $38.0 million.

Deferred Tax Assets. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that it believes is more likely than not to be realized. This requires an objective as well as a subjective judgment by management. While the Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.

NET INCOME

Consolidated net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, totaled $4.0 million, an increase of $436,000, or 12.3%, over the same period in 2002. Diluted earnings per share

Table of Contents

for the first quarter of 2003 was $1.01 as compared to $0.91 for the same period in 2002, an increase of $0.10, or 11.0%.

The Company’s annualized return on average total assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was 0.97% as compared to 0.92% for the same period last year. The Company’s annualized return on average stockholders’ equity was 10.54% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, as compared to 10.63% for the same period in 2002.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, was $18.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 5.8%, over the same period in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the net interest margin. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company’s net interest margin was 4.76%, a decline of 62 basis points (1% equals 100 basis points) from the same period in 2002. The decline in net interest margin reflects the lower interest rate environment in which the average yield on interest-earning assets declined by 116 basis points, partially offset by a 60 basis point reduction in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2003 totaled $11.7 million, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 24.0%, over March 31, 2002. Other real estate owned was $771,000 at March 31, 2003, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 80.2%, from March 31, 2002. The decrease in nonperforming loans and other real estate owned reflects the improvement in sales activities and market values in the Hawaii real estate market.

Restructured loans were $3.6 million at March 31, 2003, a decrease of $6.9 million, or 65.9%, from March 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the refinance of certain commercial loans and the pay-off of certain residential loans.

The Company’s future levels of nonperforming loans will be reflective of Hawaii’s economy and the financial condition of its customers.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The provision for credit losses is based upon management’s judgment as to the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses (the “Allowance”) to absorb future losses. The Company uses a systematic methodology to determine the adequacy of the Allowance and related provision for credit losses to be reported for financial statement purposes. The determination of the adequacy of the Allowance is ultimately one of management’s judgment, which includes consideration of many factors, including, among other things, the amount of problem and potential problem loans, net charge-off experience, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio by type and geographic location of loans and in overall loan risk profile and quality, general economic factors and the fair value of collateral.

The provision for credit losses was $4.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, a decrease of $538,000, or 11.1%, over the same period last year. The provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2003 was largely due to the aftershocks to the local economy and negative impact on the Company's loan customers stemming from the global instability (i.e., the war in Iraq, turmoil in North Korea and the outbreak of SARS).

The Allowance at March 31, 2003 was $31.2 million and represented 2.70% of total loans. The corresponding ratios at December 31, 2002 and March 31, 2002 were 2.34% and 1.88%, respectively.

Net charge-offs were $243,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, a decrease of $2.0 million, or 89.0%, over the same period in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in commercial loan charge-offs.

The Allowance increased to 2.68 times nonperforming loans (excluding 90 days past due accruing loans) at March 31, 2003 from 1.44 times at March 31, 2002 as a result of the increase in the Allowance and decrease in nonperforming loans.

In management’s judgment, the Allowance was adequate to absorb potential losses currently inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2003. However, changes in prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s markets or in the financial condition of its customers could result in changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs in the future and, accordingly, changes in the Allowance.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income totaled $5.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, an increase of $1.6 million, or 39.2%, over the same period in 2002.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased $83,000, or 8.07%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 over the same period in 2002. These increases resulted from an increase in deposit accounts.

Other service charges and fees increased $137,000, or 8.8%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 over the same period in 2002. These increases were primarily due to higher ATM and debit card income recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

Net realized gains on sales of securities was $252,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 compared to net realized losses of $36,000 in the same period in 2002.

Net gains on sales of loans increased $371,000, or 72.6%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 from the same period in 2002.

Other income increased $673,000, or 74.8%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 over the same period in 2002. The increase in other income was partially due to higher income from the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Datatronix. The income from Datatronix was $427,000 in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to $107,000 in the same period of 2002. Datatronix offers item processing services and recently opened its California office during the fourth quarter of 2002. The remaining increase resulted from higher earnings from Bank Owned Life Insurance and higher gains on sales of other real estate owned. These two items attributed to an increase of $314,000 in other noninterest income.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense totaled $13.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, an increase of $294,000, or 2.2%, from the same period in 2002. The efficiency ratio (exclusive of amortization of purchase accounting premiums on loan and servicing portfolios) was 56.98% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 as compared to 56.53% for the same period in 2002.

Table of Contents

Salaries and employee benefits increased $605,000, or 9.2%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 from the same period in 2002. The increases were primarily due to higher incentive-based compensation paid to commercial loan personnel.

INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective income tax rate (exclusive of the tax equivalent adjustment) for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was 32.0% as compared to 31.8% for the same period in 2002 and is below the statutory rates primarily due to the utilization of state investment tax credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The consolidated statements of cash flows identify three major sources and uses of cash as operating, investing and financing activities. The Company’s operating activities used $57.2 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2003, compared to providing $25.4 million in the same period during 2002. The primary use of cash flow from operations was funding loans originated for sale, which totaled $107.8 million and $46.7 million in quarter ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. This was offset by the sale of $42.2 million of loans held for sale in quarter ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $63.3 million during the same period in 2002.

The Company’s most liquid assets are cash, interest-bearing deposits, Federal funds sold, investment securities available for sale and loans held for sale. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Company’s operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2003, cash, interest-bearing deposits, Federal funds sold and available for sale investment and mortgage/asset-backed securities totaled $367.5 million, an increase of 34.8% from $272.7 million at March 31, 2002.

Investing activities provided cash flow of $37.5 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2003, compared to $24.1 million during the same period in 2002. The primary sources of cash for investing activities in the quarter ended March 31, 2003 were proceeds from sales and maturities of available-for-sale securities of $78.8 million and net loan payoffs of $17.7 million, which compares to $32.4 million and $45.3 million, respectively, during the same period in 2002.

Financing activities used cash of $21.0 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2003, compared to using $46.3 million during the same period in 2002. The primary uses of cash flows from financing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2003 were the net decrease in deposits of $17.1 million and repayments of short-term borrowings of $4.0 million, which compares to $29.6 million and $35.8 million, respectively, during the same period in 2002.

The Company and the Bank are subject to capital standards promulgated by the Federal banking agencies and the Hawaii Division of Financial Institutions. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy required the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table at March 31, 2003 and 2002) of Tier 1 and Total capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.

Unsolicited Merger Proposal

On April 16, 2003, Central Pacific Financial Corp., a Hawaii corporation (“CPF”), delivered an unsolicited proposal to merge with the Company. CPF’s proposal included the exchange of each share of Company common stock outstanding for $21 in cash and 1.8956 shares of CPF common stock.

On April 17, 2003, the Company announced that it had received the proposal from CPF, and on April 23, 2003 it advised CPF that the Company’s Board would address the merger proposal promptly and in an orderly manner and would respond in a timely fashion. On April 23, the Company also issued a press release announcing that it had engaged a financial advisor and legal counsel to assist its Board of Directors and management team in evaluating CPF’s merger proposal.

On April 28, 2003, CPF filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in which it described its intent to commence an exchange offer for all outstanding shares of Company common stock. On the same day, CPF filed applications with federal and state regulators in furtherance of its proposed exchange offer. Also on April 28, 2003, CPF delivered to the Company a letter requesting a special meeting of shareholders of the Company to vote on whether to approve CPF’s acquisition of shares of Company common stock pursuant to the proposed exchange offer under the Hawaii Control Share Acquisitions Act.

On April 29, 2003, the Company announced that at its Board of Directors meeting held on April 23, 2003, the Board declared a 10% stock dividend and a cash dividend of $0.12 per common share for the second quarter of 2003, payable on June 27, 2003 to stockholders of record on June 16, 2003. Similar 10% stock dividends were declared in the second quarters of 2001 and 2002.

On May 1, 2003, CPF announced that, in light of the 10% stock dividend announced by the Company on April 29, it was amending its offer so that the per share amount of cash to be paid and of shares of CPF common stock to be issued pursuant to the proposed offer to exchange was adjusted from $21.00 to $19.09 in cash and from 1.8956 to 1.7233 shares of CPF common stock.

On May 2, 2003, CPF amended and supplemented its prior application submitted to the Division of Financial Institutions of the Department of Commerce & Consumer Affairs of Hawaii to include a request that the Commissioner of the Division approve CPF making a tender/exchange offer, pursuant to Section 412:3-612(a)(2) of the Hawaii Revised Statutes. CPF cannot commence its proposed offer to exchange until such application is approved.

On May 4, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company met with senior management and the Company’s independent financial and legal advisors to consider and discuss CPF’s merger proposal and the Company’s response. After careful consideration, the Board concluded that the CPF proposal was inadequate and not in the best interests of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company authorized the issuance of a press release and delivery of a letter to CPF communicating its determination. Accordingly, on May 4, 2003, the Company issued a press release announcing the Board’s unanimous rejection of CPF’s proposal.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company disclosed both quantitative and qualitative analyses of market risks in its 2002 Form 10-K. No significant changes have occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic filings under the Exchange Act.

(b)  Changes in Internal Controls. Since the Evaluation Date, there have not been any significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such controls.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On April 28, 2003, Barbara Clarridge (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint against the Company and each of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors in the Circuit Court of the First Circuit, State of Hawaii. The case is denominated as a class action on behalf of all Company shareholders although no proceedings have taken place regarding possible class certification. Plaintiff alleges, among other things, that Central Pacific Financial Corp.’s (“CPF”) proposed exchange offer is futile without approval of the Company’s directors because of the Company’s Rights Plan, and that the defendants have refused to seriously consider the CPF offer. The complaint seeks a judgment (1) directing the defendants to give due consideration to any proposed business combination; (2) directing the defendants to assure that no conflicts of interest exist between the directors and their duties to the corporation; (3) awarding the plaintiff the costs and attorneys’ fees; and (4) granting such other relief as the court deems proper. The Company believes the claims are without merits and intends to defend against them vigorously.

On May 8, 2003, the Plaintiff filed a motion for preliminary injunction asking the court to: (1) enjoin indefinitely, until further order of the court, the special shareholders’ meeting scheduled for May 28, 2003; (2) enjoin enforcement of the Bylaw amendment adopted May 4, 2003 regarding adjournment of shareholders meetings; and (3) enjoin any further amendment to the Company Bylaws prior to the special shareholders’ meeting. The Company believes the motion lacks merit and intends to defend against it vigorously.

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On April 23, 2003 and May 4, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a number of amendments to the Bylaws of the Company that affect the holders of the shares of Common Stock. These amendments were previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2003 (the “May 8-K”).

Among other things, the amendments modify the procedures applicable to an adjournment of a stockholders meeting. In particular:

    If a quorum is not present at a stockholders meeting, such meeting may be adjourned without notice other than the announcement at the meeting. Such adjournment may be to such date as shall be determined by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock present and entitled to vote, and to such time and place as shall be determined by the Chairman.
 
    If a quorum is present at a stockholders meeting, only the Chairman of the meeting may adjourn the meeting, without notice other than the announcement at the meeting. Such adjournment may be to such time and to such place as shall be determined by the Chairman.

Furthermore, no meeting of stockholders may be adjourned to a date that is later than the date, if any, specifically provided for under any provision of the Hawaii Business Corporation Act as the actual or latest date on which such meeting shall be held.

The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bylaws amendments filed in the May 8-K.
