HONOLULU, HI, October 30, 2024 – Central Pacific Financial Corp. (NYSE: CPF) (the "Company"), parent company of Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank" or "CPB"), today reported net income of $13.3 million, or fully diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.49 for the third quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $15.8 million, or EPS of $0.58 in the previous quarter and net income of $13.1 million, or EPS of $0.49 in the year-ago quarter. Results for the third quarter of 2024 were impacted by $3.1 million in pre-tax expenses related to our evaluation and assessment of a strategic opportunity. While the parties are no longer currently engaged in discussions, we remain interested in the opportunity under the right terms and conditions. Excluding these expenses, adjusted net income and EPS (non-GAAP) for the quarter was approximately $15.7 million and $0.58, respectively.

"Our third quarter core results were strong and we continue to pursue our strategies for future growth and additional internal operating efficiencies," said Arnold Martines, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our net interest income and net interest margin expanded as we successfully managed the balance sheet and repricing in this evolving interest rate environment."

"Central Pacific remains committed to supporting our customers and communities. We were pleased to open a new state-of-the-art branch in Kahului to support the business and personal financial needs of the Maui community as we move to expand our presence on the neighbor islands," Martines said.

Earnings Highlights
Net interest income was $53.9 million for the third quarter of 2024, which increased by $1.9 million, or 3.7% from the previous quarter, and increased by $1.9 million, or 3.7% from the year-ago quarter. Net interest margin ("NIM") was 3.07% for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 10 basis points ("bp" or "bps") from the previous quarter and an increase of 19 bp from the year-ago



Central Pacific Financial Reports Third Quarter 2024 Earnings

quarter. The sequential quarter increase in net interest income and NIM was primarily due to higher average yields earned on investment securities and loans of 11 and 9 bps, respectively, combined with a 1 bp decline in average rates paid on interest-bearing deposits. The higher average yield earned on investment securities in the third quarter of 2024 includes $1.1 million in income from an interest rate swap that became effective on March 31, 2024, compared to $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2024.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.8 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to a provision of $2.2 million in the previous quarter and a provision of $4.9 million in the year-ago quarter. The provision in the current quarter consisted of a provision for credit losses on loans of $3.0 million, offset by a credit to the provision for off-balance sheet exposures of $0.2 million.

Other operating income totaled $12.7 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared to $12.1 million in the previous quarter and $10.0 million in the year-ago quarter. The higher other operating income was primarily due to higher income from bank-owned life insurance of $0.7 million, partially offset by lower mortgage banking income of $0.2 million.

Other operating expense totaled $46.7 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared to $41.2 million in the previous quarter and $39.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The higher other operating expense was primarily due to the aforementioned $3.1 million in expenses related to a strategic opportunity (included in other), higher salaries and employee benefits of $1.1 million, and higher directors' deferred compensation plan expenses of $1.0 million (included in other).

The efficiency ratio was 70.12% for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 64.26% in the previous quarter and 63.91% in the year-ago quarter. Excluding the aforementioned expenses related to a strategic opportunity, the adjusted efficiency ratio (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2024 was 65.51%.

The effective tax rate was 22.0% for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 23.4% in the previous quarter and 24.9% in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to higher tax-exempt income from bank-owned life insurance and additional tax credits recognized.

Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets of $7.42 billion at September 30, 2024 increased by $28.5 million, or 0.4% from $7.39 billion at June 30, 2024, and decreased by $222.5 million, or 2.9% from $7.64 billion at September 30, 2023. The Company had $326.6 million in cash on its balance sheet and $2.55 billion in total other liquidity sources, including available borrowing capacity and unpledged investment securities at September 30, 2024. Total available sources of liquidity as a percentage of uninsured and uncollateralized deposits was 118% at September 30, 2024, compared to 121% at June 30, 2024 and 122% at September 30, 2023. During the third quarter of 2024, excess balance sheet liquidity was used to pay off $69.1 million in higher cost government time deposits.

Total loans, net of deferred fees and costs, of $5.34 billion at September 30, 2024 decreased by $41.0 million, or 0.8% from $5.38 billion at June 30, 2024, and decreased by $166.1 million, or 3.0% from $5.51 billion at September 30, 2023. Average yields earned on loans during the third quarter of 2024 was 4.89%, compared to 4.80% in the previous quarter and 4.49% in the year-ago quarter.

Total deposits of $6.58 billion at September 30, 2024 increased by $0.6 million or 0.01% from $6.58 billion at June 30, 2024, and decreased by $291.7 million, or 4.2% from $6.87 billion at September 30, 2023. Core deposits, which include demand deposits, savings and money market deposits and time deposits up to $250,000, totaled $5.97 billion at September 30, 2024, and increased by $53.9 million, or 0.9% from $5.91 billion at June 30, 2024. Average rates paid on total deposits during the third quarter of 2024 was 1.32%, compared to 1.33% in the previous quarter and 1.07% in the year-ago quarter. FDIC-insured or fully collateralized deposits represented approximately 63% of total deposits at September 30, 2024, compared to 64% at June 30, 2024 and 65% at September 30, 2023.

Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets totaled $11.6 million, or 0.16% of total assets at September 30, 2024, compared to $10.3 million, or 0.14% of total assets at June 30, 2024 and $6.7 million, or 0.09% of total assets at September 30, 2023. The increase in nonperforming assets was primarily due to the addition of residential mortgage loans totaling $2.2 million which were well-collateralized with strong loan-to-value ratios.

Net charge-offs totaled $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to net charge-offs of $3.8 million in the previous quarter, and net charge-offs of $3.9 million in the year-ago quarter. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans was 0.27%, 0.28% and 0.28% during the three months ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.
