American Savings Bank Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

3Q 2023 Net Income of $11.4 million

$8.6 Million of Maui Wildfire-Related Expenses, Including $5.9 Million of Additional Provision

Solid Credit Quality and Capital Position

Liquidity Remains Strong

American Savings Bank, F.S.B. (ASB), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE - HE), today reported third quarter 2023 net income of $11.4 million, compared to $20.2 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $20.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. Core net income1 for the third quarter of 2023 was $17.6 million.

“American Savings Bank continues to be well-positioned to support our community with a strong capital position, excellent credit quality, lending capacity and ample liquidity,” said Ann Teranishi, president and chief executive officer of ASB. “Despite the economic impacts of the wildfires, our customers and business have proved resilient. I’m very proud of our ASB teammates for delivering exceptional service through this difficult period. Our hearts are with the people of Maui, and we remain committed to supporting the recovery and rebuild effort.”

Financial Highlights

Third quarter 2023 net interest income was $62.6 million compared to $63.2 million in the second, or linked quarter of 2023 and $65.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. The lower net interest income compared to the linked and prior year quarters was primarily due to higher interest expense from rising deposit costs resulting from growth in higher yielding certificates of deposit. The lower net interest income compared to the prior year quarter also included higher interest expense from increased wholesale borrowings, and lower interest and dividends on investment securities. Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2023 was 2.70%, compared to 2.75% in the linked quarter, and 2.96% in the third quarter of last year.

The third quarter 2023 provision for credit losses was $8.8 million, compared to $0.04 million in the linked quarter and a $0.2 million negative provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2022. The higher provision for credit losses for the quarter was primarily due to $5.9 million in additional credit reserves related to borrowers impacted by the Maui wildfires and the resulting economic disruption. As of September 30, 2023, ASB’s allowance for credit losses to outstanding loans was 1.23% compared to 1.13% as of June 30, 2023 and 1.24% as of September 30, 2022.

The net charge-off ratio for the third quarter of 2023 was 0.07%, compared to 0.14% in the linked quarter and 0.03% in the third quarter of 2022. Nonaccrual loans as a percentage of total loans receivable held for investment were 0.16%, compared to 0.22% in the linked quarter and 0.35% in the prior year quarter.

Noninterest income was $15.3 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $15.6 million in the linked quarter and $13.0 million in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to a gain on sale of real estate recognized in the linked quarter and lower fee income, partially offset by higher bank-owned life insurance income. The increase compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to higher bank-owned life insurance income.

Noninterest expense was $56.3 million compared to $53.8 million in the linked quarter and $51.6 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase compared to the linked and prior year quarters was primarily due to wildfire-related expenses incurred during the quarter, including $1.3 million in professional services costs and $1.0 million in other extraordinary expenses.

Total loans were $6.2 billion as of September 30, 2023, up 3.6% from December 31, 2022, primarily reflecting growth in the commercial real estate and residential mortgage portfolios.

Total deposits were $8.2 billion as of September 30, 2023, an increase of 0.7% from December 31, 2022. Core deposits declined 5.1%, while certificates of deposits increased 71.8%. As of September 30, 2023, 87% of deposits were F.D.I.C. insured or fully collateralized, up slightly from 86% as of June 30, 2023, with approximately 77% of deposits F.D.I.C. insured. For the third quarter of 2023, the average cost of funds was 1.02%, up 19 basis points versus the linked quarter and up 89 basis points versus the prior year quarter.

Wholesale funding totaled $750 million as of September 30, 2023, unchanged from June 30, 2023.

For the third quarter of 2023, return on average equity was 9.2%, compared to 16.2% in the linked quarter and 15.1% in the third quarter of 2022. Return on average assets was 0.47% for the third quarter of 2023, compared to 0.84% in the linked quarter and 0.89% in the prior year quarter. Excluding Maui wildfire-related costs, core returns on average equity and average assets2 were 14.3% and 0.73%, respectively.

In the third quarter of 2023, ASB paid dividends of $14.0 million to HEI. ASB had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 7.7% as of September 30, 2023.

Explanation of ASB’s Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures

HEI and ASB management use certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of HEI and the bank.

Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies’ core operating activities. Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP core earnings and returns on average equity and average assets for the bank.

The reconciling adjustments from GAAP earnings to core earnings are limited to the costs related to the recent Maui wildfires. Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company’s fundamental core earnings.
