ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- ---------------------------------------------
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------


OPERATING RESULTS

     Net income for the second quarter of 1997 was $18,279,000, or $0.40 per
share.  Net income for the comparable period of 1996 was $17,770,000, or $0.39
per share.

     Net income for the first half of 1997 was $39,504,000, or $0.87 per share,
versus $24,961,000, or $0.55 per share, in 1996.  Net income in the first half
of 1997 included $12,478,000, or $0.28 per share, resulting from the favorable
settlement of protracted litigation related to an insurance claim.  Excluding
this settlement, first half 1997 net income rose eight percent.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

     The Company's principal liquid resources, comprising cash and cash
equivalents, receivables, sugar and coffee inventories and unused lines of
credit, less accrued deposits to the Capital Construction Fund (CCF), totaled
$529.1 million at June 30, 1997, an increase of $16.2 million from December 31,
1996.  This increase was due primarily to an increase in receivables, higher
sugar and coffee inventories and higher cash balances, partially offset by an
increase in accrued deposits to the CCF.  Receivables increased $16.8 million,
due primarily to a gradual increase in government receivables at Matson
Navigation Company, Inc. (Matson) and increased sales by California and
Hawaiian Sugar Company, Inc. (C&H).  Sugar and coffee inventories increased
$11.3 million, due to seasonal production at the Company's Maui sugar
plantation, partially offset by a decrease in raw sugar tonnage carried in
inventory at C&H.  The $8.3 million increase in cash and cash equivalents was
primarily the result of Matson's receipt of the insurance-litigation proceeds.
Accrued deposits to the CCF increased $20.3 million.

     Working capital was $111.8 million at June 30, 1997, an increase of $10.3
million from the amount at the end of 1996.  This increase was due primarily to
the previously described increases in receivables, sugar and coffee inventories
and higher cash balances, partially offset by the increase in accrued deposits
to the CCF.

RESULTS OF SEGMENT OPERATIONS -
SECOND QUARTER 1997 COMPARED WITH THE SECOND QUARTER 1996

OCEAN TRANSPORTATION revenue of $175.0 million for the second quarter of 1997
was one-percent higher than the 1996 second quarter revenue.  Operating profit
of $22.8 million for the second quarter of 1997 declined, however, by 14
percent.  This decrease was primarily the result of lower shipments of autos
and containers to and from Hawaii and higher operating costs at Matson's
container terminals.  Partially offsetting these factors were higher cargo
volume in the Guam, Pacific Coast and Mid-Pacific services, and slightly higher
revenue rates in the Hawaii service.  Matson's second-quarter 1997 Hawaii
container volume declined two percent from that of the 1996 second quarter.
Hawaii automobile volume declined 17 percent.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - LEASING revenue of $9.6 million for the
second quarter of 1997 was six-percent higher than the second quarter 1996
revenue, and operating profit of $6.4 million was three-percent greater than in
the comparable 1996 period.  These increases were the result of properties
added to the portfolio in 1996 and early 1997 and increased rental rates,
offset, in part, by the absence of income from appreciated properties that had
been sold.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - SALES revenue was $14.5 million, up
significantly from the $5.1 million in sales recorded in the second quarter of
1996.  However, operating profit from property sales this quarter was $3.1
million, virtually the same as last year's second quarter amount.  The margin
difference between these periods was due to differences in the mix and book
values of the properties sold.  Sales in the second quarter of 1997 included an
industrial warehouse in California, and three developed business lots and
sixteen residential properties on Maui.  Sales in the second quarter of 1996
included one developed income property, one developed business lot and seven
residential properties.

     The mix of property sales in any quarter can be diverse.  These sales can
include property sold under threat of condemnation, developed residential real
estate, commercial properties, developable subdivision lots and undeveloped
land.  The sales of undeveloped land and subdivision lots generally provide
greater contribution margins than sales of developed and commercial property,
due to the low historical-cost basis of the Company's Hawaii land.
Consequently, property sales revenue trends and the amount of real estate
available for sale are not necessarily indicators of future profitability for
this segment.

FOOD PRODUCTS revenue of $118.1 million for the second quarter of 1997 was one-
percent lower than the revenue reported for the comparable period of 1996.  The
second quarter operating profit of $6.6 million, however, represented a
significant improvement from the $2.7 million operating profit in the same
period in 1996.  This increase was primarily the result of a higher refiner's
margin at C&H, combined with ongoing cost reduction initiatives.

RESULTS OF SEGMENT OPERATIONS -
FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1997 COMPARED WITH THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1996

OCEAN TRANSPORTATION revenue of $356.1 million for the first half of 1997 rose
nine percent, primarily due to the insurance settlement.  Excluding the
insurance settlement, which contributed about $20.0 million, and a one-time
charter payment in the first quarter of 1996, which contributed $5.6 million,
first-half operating profit of $36.9 million declined four percent, due to the
same reasons as the second-quarter decrease.  For the first half, Matson's
total Hawaii container volume was three-percent lower and its total automobile
volume was five-percent lower.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - LEASING revenue of $18.7 million for the
first half of 1997 was four-percent greater than the results in the comparable
1996 period.  Operating profit of $12.7 million was four-percent higher than in
the first half of 1996.  This increase was due to the same reasons as the
second quarter increase.  The additional leased properties in the first half of
1997 included two office buildings in Hawaii (Honolulu, Oahu and Wailuku, Maui)
and a retail center in Greeley, Colorado.  The leased-property portfolio
benefited from continuing high occupancy levels for Mainland properties, where
year-to-date occupancy rates averaged 98 percent for both half-year periods.
Occupancy levels for Hawaii properties averaged 78 percent, versus 88 percent
last year.  The decrease was due primarily to recently acquired properties that
have relatively low occupancy rates.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - SALES revenue of $18.6 million in the
first half of 1997 compared with $7.3 million recorded in the first half of
1996.  Operating profit of $4.7 million from property sales in the first half
was more than 40-percent higher than that of the first half of 1996.  Among the
first half 1997 sales were a one-acre developed lot and an industrial warehouse
in California which, combined, contributed $3.0 million to operating profit,
plus 27 residential and 3 developed business lot sales.  Sales in the
comparable period of 1996 included one developed business lot and 19 resi-
dential properties.  The net proceeds from the developed lot and the California
industrial warehouse sold in the first half of 1997 will be treated as tax-
deferred exchanges.  One tax-deferred sale was completed in the comparable
period of 1996.

FOOD PRODUCTS revenue of $219.3 million for the first half of 1997 was two-
percent higher than the revenue reported for the comparable period of 1996.
Operating profit of $8.7 million for the first half of 1997 compared with $1.8
million during the comparable period of 1996.  This increase was due to the
same reasons as the second-quarter improvement.

OTHER MATTERS

INSURANCE LITIGATION:  On February 13, 1997, Matson received a favorable cash
settlement of $33,650,000 for a contested insurance claim in connection with
repairing port facilities damaged by a 1989 earthquake.  As noted previously,
this settlement resulted in additional net income of $12,478,000 in the first
half of 1997.

LEGISLATION:  Under the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act (FAIR),
signed into law in 1996, an initial import quota of 1,874,000 short tons of raw
sugar was established. This tonnage will increase or decrease by specified
amounts, at scheduled intervals, based upon changes in sugar supply, demand and
inventories.  During the first half of 1997, the import quota was increased by
440,000 short tons, to its current level of 2,314,000 short tons.  The U.S.
Department of Agriculture monitors this program and may, at its discretion,
alter the sugar import quota in order to ensure that supplies of raw sugar are
adequate to meet demand for refined sugar.

On July 26th, the U.S. House of Representatives voted down the Miller-Schumer
amendment which proposed to phase out the non-recourse language in the sugar
program under FAIR.

TAX-DEFERRED EXCHANGES:  In the first half of 1997, the Company sold two
parcels of land for $9,589,000.  The proceeds from these sales are reflected in
the Condensed Statements of Cash Flows under the caption "Other Non-Cash
Information" and are expected to be reinvested in 1997 on a tax-deferred basis.

SHARE REPURCHASES:  During the first half of 1997, the Company repurchased
approximately 273,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $7,155,000
($26.22 per share, on average).

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS:  As with most industrial and land-development companies
of its size, the Company's operations have certain risks which could result in
expenditures for environmental remediation.  The Company believes that it is in
compliance, in all material respects, with applicable environmental laws and
regulations, and works proactively to identify potential environmental
concerns.  Management believes that appropriate liabilities have been accrued
for environmental matters.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS:  The outlook for Hawaii's economy is only modestly
encouraging.  Near-term forecasts anticipate about one-percent real growth in
1997, with continued modest inflation.  Growth in Hawaii's visitor industry is
unfavorably affected by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the
Japanese yen, which raises the cost of U.S. travel to Japanese visitors.
The stronger yen, as well as higher hotel room rates, are contributing to
shorter average lengths of stay. The construction industry showed some
improvement in 1996; however, the job count continued to decline in 1997.
Waikiki hotel renovation and reconstruction activity is anticipated with the
scheduled opening of the Waikiki convention center in 1998 and retraction of a
previous building moratorium.  In addition, several large retail projects in
Waikiki have been announced recently.  Still, the Company has no basis to
expect that Hawaii's economy will provide a significant boost to earnings in
1997.

                            ------------------------

                                AMENDMENT NO. 1
                                ---------------


     The A&B Excess Benefits Plan, as amended and restated effective
February 1, 1995, is hereby amended, effective July 1, 1997, as follows:

     1.   Sections 2.07 and 2.08 are hereby redesignated Sections 2.08 and
2.09, respectively.

     2.   A new Section 2.07 is hereby added, as follows:

          "2.07.  "Fair Market Value" shall, with respect to the per share
     valuation of A&B common stock, be the mean between the high and low
     selling prices per share of A&B common stock on the last date A&B
     common stock was traded before the date in question, as reported on
     the Nasdaq National Market System (or any successor system)."

     3.   A new Section 2.10 is hereby added, as follows:

          "2.10  "Section 16 Insider" shall mean any Participant who is, at
     the time of the relevant determination or was at any time within the
     immediately preceding six (6) months, an officer or director of A&B
     subject to the short-swing profit restrictions of Section 16(b) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended."

     4.   Section 4.03 is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
     
          "4.03.  MAINTENANCE OF ACCOUNTS.  The Administrator shall
                  -----------------------
     establish and maintain an individual account for each Participant.
     The Administrator shall annually credit to a Participant's account as
     of the end of each year an amount equal to the difference between
     (i) the employer contribution and forfeitures that would have been
     allocated to such Participant's account under the A&B Profit Sharing
     Plan with respect to such year were such allocation to be made without
     regard to the limitations of the Internal Revenue Code and (ii) the
     amount actually allocated to such Participant's account after having
     taken such limitations into account.  For the purposes of this Plan,
     the benefit to which the Participant is entitled under the A&B Profit
     Sharing Plan shall be determined by including as part of the Par-
     ticipant's compensation all deferred base salary.  Subject to the
     provisions stated below, and pursuant to procedures determined by the
     Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors, or
     by the committee or individual(s) to which such authority is
     delegated, the Participant may make an election ("Conversion Elec-
     tion") to have all or any portion of the amount that is credited to
     his/her account, converted into common stock-equivalent units which
     will be valued from time to time on the basis of the Fair Market Value
     of A&B common stock.

          From time to time, the value of each account shall be adjusted to
     reflect an investment return on the balance credited to such account,
     and such value and adjustments periodically shall be communicated to
     each Participant.  Such periodic valuation shall be made as follows:

               (a)  Cash Balance.  The portion of the Participant's account
                    ------------
     valued in cash shall be credited with interest, compounded annually,
     at an annual rate equal to 1% above the New York Federal Reserve Bank
     discount rate in effect as of the date interest is computed and
     credited.  Interest shall be computed and credited as of such date and
     on such account balance as specified by the Administrator.  In the
     absence of such specifications, interest shall be credited and
     computed as of January 1 of each year on the balance of the account on
     the preceding January 1 or, if payments have been made out of an
     account during the preceding year, on the average balance of that
     account during the preceding year.

               (b)  Common Stock-Equivalent Units.
                    -----------------------------

                    (1)  The common stock-equivalent units will be credited,
     at the time dividends are paid on outstanding shares of A&B common
     stock, with an amount ("dividend-equivalent credits") equal to the
     dividends which otherwise would be paid if the number of common stock-
     equivalent units in the Participant's account were actually
     outstanding shares of A&B Common Stock.

                    (2)  Dividend-equivalent credits will be applied in the
     manner of a dividend reinvestment plan to purchase additional common
     stock-equivalent units valued at Fair Market Value on the applicable
     dividend payment date.

                    (3)  Pursuant to procedures determined by the
     Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors, or
     by the committee or individual(s) to which such authority is
     delegated, a Participant may elect to have all or a portion of the
     Participant's common stock-equivalent units converted into cash on the
     basis of the Fair Market Value (at date of conversion) of the shares
     of A&B common stock represented by such units; provided, however, that
     Participants may not make such an election if they are Section 16
     Insiders at the time of such election.  Any portion so converted to
     cash shall begin to earn interest in accordance with paragraph (a)
     above, and shall stop earning dividend-equivalent credits.

                    (4)  Any common stock-equivalent units credited to a
     Participant's account shall automatically be converted into cash, on
     the basis of the Fair Market Value (at the date of conversion) of the
     shares of A&B common stock represented by such units, upon the
     Participant's termination of employment with A&B for any reason.  Any
     amounts so converted to cash shall begin to earn interest in
     accordance with paragraph (a) above.

          The account of each Participant shall be entered on the
     employer's books as a liability, payable when due out of general
     assets.  Participant accounts shall not be funded by any trust or
     insurance contract; nor shall any assets be segregated or identified
     with any such account; nor shall any property or assets be pledged,
     encumbered, or otherwise subjected to a lien or security interest for
     payment of benefits."

     5.   Except as modified by this Amendment, all terms and provisions of the
A&B Excess Benefits Plan shall continue in full force and effect.
