HONOLULU, Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Hawaiian, Inc. (NASDAQ: FHB) ("First Hawaiian" or the "Company") announced today that Alan Aizumi, vice chairman of First Hawaiian, Inc. and First Hawaiian Bank, will retire effective April 3, 2026, following more than 40 years of service.

Aizumi joined First Hawaiian Bank in 1983 and has served on the senior management committee since 2009. He has led the wealth management group since 2013 and previously held senior leadership roles in risk management, business and card services, and across consumer, commercial and corporate banking. "As I reflect on my career, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunities and relationships that shaped my journey," Aizumi said. "It has been a privilege to work alongside so many outstanding colleagues and to contribute to an institution with such a proud history. I leave with great confidence in First Hawaiian Bank's continued success." Executive Vice President Michael Tottoff will assume responsibility for the wealth management group and join the senior management committee. Tottoff began his career with First Hawaiian Bank in 1989 and returned in 2005 after gaining private client investment experience on the mainland. Since then, he has advanced through a series of leadership roles within advisory, guiding the division's strategic growth, including overseeing the transition of FHB's broker-dealer platform to Raymond James Financial. He was promoted to division manager in 2020 and to executive vice president in 2024.  |
