HONOLULU, HI, January 26, 2022 – Central Pacific Financial Corp. (NYSE: CPF) (the "Company"), parent company of Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank"), today reported record net income for the fourth quarter and the 2021 year. Net income for the quarter was $22.3 million, or fully diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.80, compared to net income in the fourth quarter of 2020 of $12.2 million, or EPS of $0.43, and net income in the third quarter of 2021 of $20.8 million, or EPS of $0.74. For the year, net income was $79.9 million, or EPS of $2.83, compared to net income of $37.3 million, or EPS of $1.32 for all of 2020. Pre-tax net income was $29.9 million and $105.7 million for the fourth quarter and the 2021 year, which represents the best pre-tax quarter and full year results since 2007.

The Company is also announcing the launch of a new Banking-as-a-Service ("BaaS") initiative with the goal of expanding the Company both in and beyond Hawaii by investing in or collaborating with leading fintech companies. The BaaS initiative is being developed based on the successful product development and launch strategies used in the Company's new Shaka digital product. Shaka, Hawaii’s first all-digital checking account, was launched with a VIP waitlist campaign and the largest social media influencer campaign in Hawaii’s history. Since the product launch on November 8, 2021, over 3,300 Shaka accounts have been opened.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, the Company will continue its BaaS initiatives with an equity investment in Swell, a new fintech company. Swell plans to launch a consumer banking app that combines checking, credit and more into one integrated account, and Central Pacific Bank will serve as the bank sponsor. There will also be a collaboration between the Company, Swell and Elevate Credit (NYSE:ELVT), a leading provider of digital lending solutions. Swell is scheduled to launch its first product in mid-2022.

“We are very pleased with our record earnings and an extremely successful 2021,” said Paul Yonamine, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We will maintain our commitment to be a top community bank in Hawaii, combining the latest in digital convenience with our strong tradition of customer service. Today’s announcement of our BaaS initiatives, represents an exciting new chapter of our Company as we expand beyond the Hawaii market which we believe will drive revenue growth and create even more shareholder value.”

On January 25, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per share on its outstanding common shares. This represents a 4.0% increase from the dividend paid of $0.25 per share in the fourth quarter of 2021. The dividend will be payable on March 15, 2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 28, 2022.

On January 25, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30 million of its common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a newly authorized share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Plan"). The Repurchase Plan replaces and supersedes in its entirety the share repurchase program previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors, which had $6.3 million in remaining repurchase authority as of December 31, 2021. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company repurchased 305,594 shares of common stock, at a total cost of $8.4 million, or an average cost per share of $27.64. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company returned $45.6 million in capital to its shareholders through cash dividends and share repurchases.

Earnings Highlights
Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $53.1 million, compared to $51.5 million in the year-ago quarter and $56.1 million in the previous quarter. Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 3.08%, compared to 3.32% in the year-ago quarter and 3.31% in the previous quarter. The sequential quarter decrease in net interest income and net interest margin is primarily due to lower net interest income and loan fees on PPP loans, and lower yields on core loans, partially offset by higher average loan and investment security balances. Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2021 included $4.7 million in net interest income and loan fees on PPP loans, compared to $8.6 million in the previous quarter. Net deferred fees on PPP loans totaled $3.5 million at December 31, 2021, compared to $7.9 million at September 30, 2021, respectively. Additional information on average balances, interest income and expenses and yields and rates is presented in Tables 4 and 5.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a credit to the provision for credit losses of $7.7 million, compared to a provision of $4.9 million in the year-ago quarter and a credit to the provision of $2.6 million in the previous quarter. The credit to the provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2021 was driven by continued improvements in the economic forecast, net recoveries during the current quarter and strong asset quality as the State of Hawaii continues to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Other operating income for the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $11.6 million, compared to $14.1 million in the year-ago quarter and $10.3 million in the previous quarter. The decrease from the year-ago quarter was primarily due to lower mortgage banking income of $3.5 million, partially offset by higher other service charges and fees of $1.3 million. The increase from the previous quarter was primarily due to higher mortgage banking income and bank-owned life insurance of $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Additional information on other operating income is presented in Table 3.

Other operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $42.4 million, compared to $44.7 million in the year-ago quarter and $41.3 million in the previous quarter. Other operating expense in the current quarter included $1.1 million in severance expense and $0.4 million in costs related to the consolidation of our Kapalama Branch on Oahu. The Company plans to consolidate three additional branches in 2022. The decrease in other operating expense from the year-ago quarter was primarily due to $3.9 million in nonrecurring expenses (included in other) in the year-ago quarter, which included: branch consolidation costs of $1.3 million, litigation settlements of $0.8 million, Federal Home Loan Bank advance prepayment fee of $0.7 million, loss on disposal of fixed assets of $0.6 million and other nonrecurring expenses totaling $0.5 million. The increase in other operating expense from the previous quarter is primarily due to branch consolidation costs, higher deferred compensation plan expenses and higher promotions expense of $0.4 million each. Additional information on other operating expense is presented in Table 3.

The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 65.61%, compared to 68.20% in the year-ago quarter and 62.32% in the previous quarter.

Additional information on net charge-offs and recoveries and the allowance for credit losses is presented in Tables 9 and 10.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains certain references to financial measures that have been adjusted to exclude certain expenses and other specified items. These financial measures differ from comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") in that they exclude unusual or non-recurring charges, losses, credits or gains. This press release identifies the specific items excluded from the comparable GAAP financial measure in the calculation of each non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that financial presentations excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information that is important to a proper understanding of the Company's core business results by investors. These presentations should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

The Company's management will host a conference call today at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time (8:00 a.m. Hawaii Time) to discuss the quarterly results. Individuals are encouraged to listen to the live webcast of the presentation by visiting the investor relations page of the Company's website at http://ir.cpb.bank. Alternatively, investors may participate in the live call by dialing 1-844-200-6205 (access code: 319900). A playback of the call will be available through February 25, 2022 by dialing 1-866-813-9403 (access code: 961340) and on the Company's website.

[1] In 2020, the Company recorded a reserve on accrued interest receivable ("AIR") of $0.2 million for loans on payment forbearance or deferral, which were granted to borrowers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. This reserve was recorded as a contra-asset against AIR with the offset to the provision for credit losses. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company reversed the entire reserve on AIR. The provision for credit losses presented in this table excludes the provision for credit losses on AIR.
[2] As of January 1, 2021, the provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures (previously included in other operating expense) is included in the provision for credit losses line on the consolidated statements of income. The allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures continues to be included in other liabilities. For roll-forward purposes, in this table we exclude the provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures.
