NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
First Hawaiian, Inc. and Subsidiaries

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the
accounts of First Hawaiian, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries - First
Hawaiian Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Pioneer Federal Savings Bank
and its wholly-owned subsidiary; First Hawaiian Creditcorp, Inc.; Pacific One
Bank; ANB Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary; First Hawaiian
Leasing, Inc.; and FHI International, Inc.  All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

         Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for 1995 have
been reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation.  Such
reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated net income as previously
reported.

         In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which included only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation are reflected
in the consolidated financial statements.

2.       ACCOUNTING CHANGES

         Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing
Rights."  SFAS 122 amends SFAS No. 65, "Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking
Activities," to require that mortgage banking enterprises recognize as separate
assets rights to service mortgage loans for others.  SFAS No. 122 also requires
that mortgage banking enterprises assess capitalized mortgage servicing rights
based on the fair value of those rights on a disaggregated basis.  The adoption
of this standard did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements of the Company.

         Effective January 1, 1995, the Company adopted SFAS No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," and SFAS No. 118,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and
Disclosures."  SFAS No. 114 requires that impaired loans be measured based on
the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's
effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market price, or at the
fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  The adoption
of SFAS No. 114 did not result in additional provisions for loan losses
primarily because the majority of impaired loan valuations continue to be based
on the fair value of the collateral.

         The provision for loan losses charged to expense is based upon the
Company's historical loss experience and estimates of future loan losses in the
current loan portfolio, including the evaluation of impaired loans in
accordance with SFAS No. 114.  A loan is considered to be impaired when, based
upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be
unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the
loan.  Impairment is primarily measured based on the fair value of the
collateral.  Impairment losses are included in the provision for loan losses.
SFAS No. 114 does not apply to large groups of smaller balance homogeneous
loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment, except for those loans
restructured under a troubled debt structuring.  Loans collectively evaluated
for impairment include certain smaller balance commercial loans, consumer loans
and residential real estate loans, and are not included in the data that
follows.

3.       BUSINESS COMBINATION

         On July 31, 1996, for a purchase price of $18 million, the Company
acquired ANB Financial Corporation, a bank holding company, and its subsidiary,
American National Bank ("ANB"), which had total loans of $51 million and
deposits of $67 million at the date of acquisition.  ANB has a total of four
branches in Washington state.  The acquisition was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting and the results of operations of ANB Financial
Corporation were included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the
date of acquisition.

         On May 31, 1996, the Company acquired 31 branches in Oregon,
Washington and Idaho, which were being divested by U.S. Bancorp and West One
Bancorp as a result of their merger, at a purchase price of $36 million.  The
branch acquisitions included the purchase of loans of $400 million and
assumption of deposits of $687 million.  The acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting and the results of its operations were
included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of acquisition.
Of the 31 branches acquired by the Company, the 26 Oregon and Idaho branches
will be operated as Pacific One Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
The five branches acquired in Washington are operated as Pacific One Bank, FSB
as branches of Pioneer Federal Savings Bank, another wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company.  On November 8, 1996, ANB acquired the five branches from Pioneer
Federal Savings Bank, and will operate eight of the nine branches acquired in
the state of Washington under the name "Pacific One Bank, N.A.".  The remaining
branch will be closed.

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

NET INCOME

The Company recorded consolidated net income for the first nine months of 1996
of $59,948,000, an increase of $2,639,000, or 4.6%, over the first nine months
of 1995.  For the third quarter of 1996, the consolidated net income of
$19,001,000 represented a decrease of 3.4% compared to the same quarter in
1995.  Consolidated net income for the first nine months and quarter ended
September 30, 1996 was negatively impacted by a pre-tax charge of $3,849,000
(after-tax charge of $2,309,000) resulting from the Bank Insurance Fund
("BIF")/Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") legislation enacted on
September 30, 1996.  The Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 imposed a special
one-time assessment at a rate of 65.7 cents per $100 of deposits on
institutions holding SAIF-insured deposits on March 31, 1995, in order to
recapitalize the SAIF fund.  Exclusive of the special SAIF one-time assessment,
consolidated net income for the first nine months and quarter ended September
30, 1996 on a recurring basis was $62,257,000 and $21,310,000, respectively,
reflecting increases of 8.6% and 8.3%, respectively, over the corresponding
periods in 1995.  The improved operating results for the Company reflects the
slow, but steady recovery of the Hawaii economy and a reduction in the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance premium.

On a per share basis, consolidated net income for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 was $1.92, representing an increase of 6.7% over the same
period in 1995.  Consolidated net income per share for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996 was $.60, representing a decrease of 3.2% compared to the
same period in 1995.  Exclusive of the aforementioned special one-time SAIF
assessment, consolidated net income per share on a recurring basis for the
first nine months and quarter ended September 30, 1996 were $1.99 and $.67,
respectively, reflecting increases of 10.6% and 8.1%, respectively.  The
proportionately greater increase in earnings per share on a recurring basis for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was attributable to the fewer average
number of shares outstanding in 1996 as compared to 1995, as a result of the
Company's stock repurchase program which authorized the total repurchase of up
to 1.6 million shares (of which 1.1 million shares were repurchased through
September 30, 1996), or five percent of the Company's approximately 32 million
shares outstanding.

On an annualized basis, the Company's return on average total assets for the
first nine months of 1996 was 1.04%, an increase of 3.0% over the same period
in 1995, and return on average stockholders' equity was 11.99%, an increase of
 .1%, over the same period in 1995.  The increase in return on average total
assets was primarily attributable to the increase in net income partially
offset by an increase in average total assets.  The increase in return on
average shareholders' equity was due to the increase in net income and the
stock repurchase program previously discussed.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, increased
$15,994,000, or 7.2%, to $239,321,000 for the first nine months of 1996 from
$223,327,000 for the same period in 1995.  Net interest income increased
$7,997,000, or 10.5%, to $84,120,000 for the third quarter of 1996 from
$76,123,000 for the same period in 1995.  The increases in net interest income
for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996 over the same periods in
1995, were primarily due to increases in the net interest margin and average
earning assets.

The net interest margin was 4.58% and 4.56% for the first nine months and third
quarter of 1996, respectively, up 26 basis points (1% equals 100 basis points)
and 10 basis points, respectively, over the same periods in 1995.  Both the
yield on average earning assets and rate paid on funding sources decreased
during the first nine months and third quarter of 1996 as compared with the
same periods in 1995.  However, the 32 basis point decrease in the rate paid on
funding sources outpaced the decrease in the yield on average earning assets of
6 basis points for the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the same period
in 1995, resulting in a favorable impact on the net interest margin.  In
addition, the increases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits during the first
nine months and third quarter of 1996 over the same periods in 1995 also
contributed to the increase in the net interest margin.  The disproportionate
decrease in the rate paid on funding sources was attributable in part to the
positive impact of interest rate swaps designed to minimize the effect of
changing interest rate environments on the net interest margin.





                                       7
<PAGE>   9
For the first nine months of 1996, the net interest rate swap expense on
deposit accounts decreased $5,647,000 compared to the same period in 1995.

Average earning assets increased by $75,096,000, or 1.1%, and $566,151,000, or
8.4%, for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively, over
the same periods in 1995.  The disproportionate increase in average earning
assets for the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the third quarter of
1996 was due to the acquisition of the 31 branches in Oregon, Washington and
Idaho and the acquisition of ANB Financial Corporation (the "Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions"), which occurred on May 31 and July 31, 1996, respectively.  The
Company initially purchased or acquired $225,966,000 in investment securities
as a result of the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions.  In addition, in the second
quarter of 1995, the Company securitized approximately $490,000,000 of
adjustable rate mortgage loans with the Federal National Mortgage Association
("FNMA") in an effort to increase its funding capacity and liquidity.  The
securities backed by these loans are held by the Company and were reclassified
to the investment securities portfolio.  Excluding the aforementioned Pacific
Northwest Acquisitions and loan securitization, the investment securities
portfolio reflected decreases of $235,787,000, or 24.7%, and $84,700,000 or
10.3%, for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 1995.  The investment securities portfolio was
allowed to run-off as securities matured since the securitized loans provided
the necessary collateral for public deposits and reverse repurchase agreements.
In addition, the increases in the overall yield on the investment securities
portfolio, compared to the first nine months and third quarter of 1995, were
also attributable to the mortgage securitization.

Average loans decreased by $107,745,000, or 1.9%, for the first nine months of
1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.  For the third quarter of 1996,
average loans increased $438,799,000, or 8.4%, over the third quarter of 1995.
The increase in the third quarter of 1996 was primarily due to the Pacific
Northwest Acquisitions.  Excluding the effect of the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions and loan securitization, average loans for the first nine months
and the third quarter of 1996, reflected decreases of 1.2% and .4%,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.  The Company continues its
efforts to diversify the loan portfolio, both geographically and by industry.
Also, the mix of average earning assets continues to change (excluding the
effect of the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions and loan securitization), with
higher-yielding average loans representing 84.8% and 85.1% of average earning
assets for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively, as
compared to 82.3% and 84.3%, respectively, for the same periods in 1995.

Average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities decreased by $3,673,000, or
 .1%, for the first nine months of 1996 compared to 1995.  This decrease
reflects the repayment of short-term borrowings from proceeds received from the
run-off of the investment securities portfolio.  This decrease was offset by
increases in average deposits resulting from the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions
and deposits acquired from a depository financial services company in the
fourth quarter of 1995.  In addition, the Company issued $50 million of
long-term subordinated debt during the second quarter of 1996 to fund the
Pacific Northwest Acquisitions.  Average interest-bearing deposits and
liabilities increased $437,064,000, or 7.6%, for the third quarter of 1996,
over the same period in 1995 as a result of the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions.

As a result of depositors seeking higher yields, the mix of average
interest-bearing deposits and liabilities changed with higher-yielding average
time deposits representing 38.6% and 40.1% of average interest-bearing deposits
and liabilities for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996,
respectively, as compared to 33.1% and 33.7%, respectively, for the same
periods in 1995.

The following table sets forth consolidated average balance sheets, an analysis
of interest income/expense, and average yield/rate for each major category of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the periods
indicated on a taxable equivalent basis.  The tax equivalent adjustment is made
for items exempt from Federal income taxes (assuming a 35% tax rate for 1996
and 1995) to make them comparable with taxable items before any income taxes
are applied.

The loan portfolio is the largest component of earning assets and accounts for
the greatest portion of total interest income.  At September 30, 1996, total
loans were $5,786,006,000, an increase of 10.0% from December 31, 1995.  This
increase was due to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions.  Excluding the impact
of the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, total loans as of September 30, 1996
would have reflected a slight increase as compared to December 31, 1995.

Total loans at September 30, 1996, represented 71.0% of total assets, 79.7% of
total earning assets and 96.1% of total deposits compared to 69.5% of total
assets, 77.7% of total earning assets and 98.2% of total deposits at December
31, 1995 and 70.5% of total assets, 78.3% of total earning assets and 102.5% of
total deposits at September 30, 1995.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS, Continued

Nonperforming assets decreased from $92,227,000 at December 31, 1995 to
$74,351,000 at September 30, 1996.

The decrease in the nonaccrual real estate - commercial category and
corresponding increase in the other real estate owned category were primarily
due to the foreclosure of two real estate - commercial loans with carrying
values totalling $7,295,000.  The increase in other real estate owned was
partially offset by the sale of a property with a carrying value of $4,167,000.
In addition, paydowns on three nonaccrual real estate - commercial loans and one
commercial loan totalling $16,502,000 and partial writedowns on three commercial
loans and one real estate - construction loan totalling $2,204,000 contributed
to the decrease in nonperforming assets. These decreases were partially offset
by the addition of a real estate - commercial loan totalling $6,050,000.

Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest totalled $27,455,000
at September 30, 1996, a decrease of 4.6% from December 31, 1995.  All of the
loans which are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are in
management's judgment adequately collateralized and in the process of
collection.

In recent years, the level of the Company's nonperforming assets and
charge-offs has been adversely affected by the prolonged economic downturn in
Hawaii and related weakness in the local real estate market.  Although the
Company believes that the Hawaii economy continues to show signs of
improvement, and certain local real estate sectors evidence signs of having
stabilized, the recovery of the Hawaii economy has been slow and the effects of
the economic downturn may continue to affect the level of nonperforming assets
and related charge-offs in future periods.

Average interest-bearing deposits increased $290,002,000, or 6.7%, and
$666,099,000, or 15.5%, over the first nine months and third quarter of 1995.
The increase in average interest-bearing deposits was due to the Pacific
Northwest Acquisitions, the purchase of deposits from a depository financial
services loan company in the fourth quarter of 1995 and various deposit product
programs initiated by the Company in the latter part of 1995 and 1996.  With
the acquisitions and assumption of deposits and depositors seeking higher
yields through the aforementioned deposit product programs, the mix of average
interest-bearing deposits changed, with higher yielding average time
certificate of deposits representing 49.1% and 50.3% of average
interest-bearing deposits in the first nine months and third quarter of 1996,
respectively, as compared to 45.0% and 45.4% in the same periods in 1995.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES, Continued

For the first nine months of 1996, the provision for loan losses was
$13,162,000, a decrease of $4,218,000, or 24.3%, compared to the same period in
1995.  The provision for loan losses was $4,649,000 for the third quarter of
1996, a decrease of $6,050,000, or 56.5%, compared to the same period in 1995.
The decrease in the provision for loan losses is consistent with the decrease
in nonperforming assets for the same periods.

Net charge-offs for the first nine months of 1996 were $14,859,000, an increase
of $1,912,000, or 14.8%, over the same period in 1995.  Net charge-offs for the
third quarter of 1996 were $5,944,000 compared to $6,216,000 for the same
period a year ago.  The increase in net charge-offs for the first nine months
of 1996 over the same period in 1995 was primarily due to increased charge-offs
in all categories of consumer loans which include direct loans, indirect dealer
loans and credit cards.

The allowance for loan losses increased to 134% of nonperforming loans at
September 30, 1996 (excluding 90 days past due accruing loans) from 95% at
December 31, 1995, reflecting the decrease in nonperforming loans and increase
in the allowance for loan losses in the first nine months of 1996.

In management's judgment, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb
potential losses currently inherent in the portfolio, however, changes in
prevailing economic conditions in the Company's markets could result in changes
in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs in the future and,
accordingly, changes in the allowance for loan losses.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income of Pacific One Bank and ANB Financial Corporation are
included in the Company's results of operations since May 31, 1996 and July 31,
1996, respectively.

Exclusive of securities transactions, noninterest income for the first nine
months of 1996 totalled $77,120,000, an increase of $4,978,000, or 6.9%, over
the same period in the prior year.  Exclusive of securities transactions,
noninterest income for the third quarter of 1996 decreased $1,691,000, or 6.2%,
compared to the same period in 1995.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions and securities transactions, noninterest income for the first nine
months of 1996 increased $3,206,000, or 4.4%, over the same period in 1995.
Conversely, for the third quarter of 1996, exclusive of the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions and securities transactions, noninterest income decreased
$3,158,000, or 11.5%, compared to the same period in 1995.

Trust and Investment Division income increased $837,000, or 4.8%, and $489,000,
or 8.8%, for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively,
over the same periods in 1995.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased $1,106,000, or 6.1%, and
$1,089,000, or 18.5%, for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996,
respectively, over the same periods in 1995.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions, service charges on deposit accounts increased $271,000, or 1.5%,
and $369,000, or 6.3%, for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996,
respectively, over the same periods in 1995.  The disproportionate percentage
increase in the third quarter of 1996 was partly attributable to higher fees on
analyzed accounts.

Other service charges and fees increased $3,915,000, or 14.9%, and $781,000, or
8.2%, for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively, over
the same periods in 1995.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, other
service charges and fees increased $3,067,000, or 11.7%, and $86,000, or .9%,
for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively, over the
same periods in 1995.  These increases were primarily the result of higher
merchant discount and mortgage brokerage fees and income earned from annuity
and mutual fund sales.

Other noninterest income decreased $880,000, or 8.6%, and $4,050,000, or 62.3%,
for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 1995.  These decreases were primarily due to insurance
recoveries and reversal of accruals totalling $4,700,000 recorded in September
1995 related to losses incurred in December 1994 in the trust area.  In
December 1994, the Company recognized a nonrecurring charge of $5,000,000 to
cover estimated losses attributable to investments made in the trust area that
were outside of the clients' express investment guidelines.  The decrease for
the first nine months of 1996 was partially offset by a gain

on sale of other real estate owned of $3,029,000 recognized in the second
quarter of 1996.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES

Noninterest expenses of Pacific One Bank and ANB Financial Corporation are
included in the Company's results of operations since May 31, 1996 and July 31,
1996, respectively.

Noninterest expenses totalled $210,728,000 and $75,376,000 for the first nine
months and third quarter of 1996, respectively, representing increases of 13.8%
and 22.6%, respectively, over the same periods a year ago.  Excluding the
Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, noninterest expenses increased $16,083,000, or
8.7%, and $6,278,000, or 10.2%, for the first nine months and third quarter of
1996, respectively, over the same periods in 1995.

Total personnel expenses (salaries and wages and employee benefits) increased
$12,269,000 or 13.6%, and $4,102,000, or 13.1%, for the first nine months and
third quarter of 1996, respectively, over the same periods in 1995.  Excluding
the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, personnel expenses increased $7,614,000, or
8.4%, and $577,000, or 1.8%, for the first nine months and third quarter of
1996, respectively, over the same periods in 1995.  The increases were
primarily due to an increase in employee benefit costs associated with the
curtailment of a noncontributory pension plan in the fourth quarter of 1995,
which was replaced with a 401(k) match and money purchase plan, effective
January 1, 1996.  Also, higher salaries and wages reflecting normal merit
increases in 1996 and lower expenses related to various employee benefit and
incentive accounts in 1995 contributed to the increases.

Occupancy expense for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996 increased
$676,000, or 3.5%, and $784,000, or 12.5%, respectively, over the same periods
in 1995.  The increases were primarily due to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions
and higher building maintenance expenses in 1996.

Equipment expense decreased $1,013,000, or 5.7%, for the first nine months of
1996 compared to the same period in 1995.  For the third quarter of 1996,
equipment expense increased $74,000, or 1.3%, over the same period in 1995.
Excluding the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, equipment expense decreased
$1,386,000, or 7.8%, and $233,000, or 4.2%, for the first nine months and third
quarter of 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.  The
decreases were a result of lower depreciation on furniture and equipment and
service contract and equipment rental expenses in 1996.

Exclusive of: (1) the aforementioned $3,849,000 SAIF one-time special
assessment recognized this quarter; (2) a pre-tax loss of $1,925,000 (after-tax
gain of $399,000 due to a net tax benefit of $2,344,000 resulting from the
reversal of the related tax liabilities) recognized on the sale of a certain
leveraged lease in the first quarter of 1996; (3) the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions; and (4) the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's (the "FDIC")
insurance refund plus interest of $2,774,000 received in September 1995 as a
result of the reduction in the assessment from 23 cents to 4 cents per $100 of
deposits effective June 1, 1995, other noninterest expenses for the first nine
months increased $1,089,000, or 1.8%, over the same period in 1995.  The
increase was primarily due to higher interchange settlement fees, outside
services, legal fees (primarily related to foreclosed property) and
nonrecurring losses in connection with a certain credit card fraud.  This
increase was partially offset by:  (1) a decrease in the FDIC deposit insurance
assessment rate from 23 to 4 cents per $100 of insured deposits beginning June
1995 compared to zero beginning January 1996; and (2) the write-off of the
residual values of $620,000 related to the early termination of certain
leveraged leases in June 1995.  Exclusive of the aforementioned nonrecurring
items and the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, other noninterest expenses for
the third quarter of 1996 decreased $1,078,000, or 5.1%, compared to the same
period in 1995.  The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the FDIC
assessment rate, partially offset by higher interchange settlement fees and
outside services.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate (exclusive of the tax equivalent
adjustment) for the first nine months and third quarter of 1996 was 34.1% and
35.3%, respectively, as compared to 35.5% and 35.1%, respectively, for the same
periods in 1995.  The decrease in the effective income tax rate for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1996, was primarily due to the reversal of
deferred tax liabilities (reflecting a change in the State tax laws) related to
the aforementioned leveraged lease sale.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL

represented 8.5% of average total assets for the third quarter of 1996 compared
to 8.7% in the same quarter last year.  There was no significant change in the

(1)      Risk-based capital guidelines as established by the Federal Reserve
         Board for bank holding companies require minimum Tier 1 and Total
         capital ratios of 4% and 8%, respectively.

(2)      The Federal Reserve Board has stated that the Leverage Ratio of 3% is
         the minimum requirement for the most highly rated banking
         organizations which are not experiencing or anticipating significant
         growth.  Other banking organizations are expected to maintain leverage
         ratios of at least one to two percent higher.
