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;
First Hawaiian Creditcorp, Inc.; Pacific One Bank; ANB Financial Corporation
and its wholly-owned subsidiary; FHL Lease Holding Company, Inc.; and FHI
International, Inc.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

         Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for 1996 have
been reclassified to conform with the 1997 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

       As of January 1, 1997, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" which were
not deferred by SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain
Provisions of FASB Statement No. 125."  These provisions specify the
recognition and measurement of servicing assets and liabilities as well as
financial assets subject to prepayment and did not have a significant impact to
the Company's financial statements as of March 31, 1997.  SFAS No. 127 defers
the effective date of certain provisions of SFAS No. 125 until January 1, 1998.
Management has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of SFAS No. 127 to
the Company's consolidated financial statements.

       In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share" (EPS) which improves the EPS information provided in
financial statements by simplifying the existing computational guidelines and
revising the disclosure requirements.  This statement is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997,
including interim periods and earlier application is not permitted.  The impact
of this statement on the Company's current disclosures is not expected to be
significant.

       Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 122, "Accounting
for Mortgage Servicing Rights."  SFAS No. 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.

3.     IMPAIRED LOANS

       The following table summarizes impaired loan information as of and for
the three months ended March 31, 1997:

        Impaired loans without a related allowance for loan losses are
generally collateralized by assets with fair values in excess of the recorded
investment in the loans.  Interest payments on impaired loans are applied to
principal.

4.      BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

        On May 31, 1996, for a purchase price of $36 million, the Company
acquired 31 branches in the States of Oregon, Washington and Idaho which were
being divested by U.S. Bancorp and West One Bancorp as a result of their
merger.  This transaction included the purchase of loans of $400 million and
the assumption of deposits of $687 million.  The acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting and the results of 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
are being operated as Pacific One Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company.  The five branches acquired in the State of Washington were originally
operated as branches of Pioneer Federal Savings Bank ("Pioneer"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (see current operations described below)
under the name "Pacific One Bank, FSB."

        On July 31, 1996, for a purchase price of $18 million, the Company
acquired ANB Financial Corporation ("ANB"), a bank holding company, and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, American National Bank, which had total loans of $51
million and total deposits of $67 million at the date of acquisition.  American
National Bank had a total of four branches located in the State of Washington.
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and
the results of operations of ANB were included in the Consolidated Statements
of Income from the date of acquisition.  On November 8, 1996, American National
Bank changed its name to Pacific One Bank, N. A. and acquired the five branches
in the State of Washington from Pioneer.  Pacific One Bank, N.A. presently
operates eight of the nine branches acquired in the State of Washington; the
remaining branch was closed.

        Hereafter, the above acquisitions will be collectively referred to as
the "Pacific Northwest Acquisitions."

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 quarter of 1997 of
$20,516,000, an increase of $313,000, or 1.5%, over the first quarter of 1996.
On a per share basis, consolidated net income for the first quarter of 1997
remained constant at $.65.  The modest increase in consolidated net income
reflects the slow pace of economic recovery in Hawaii and related weakness in
the local real estate market.

On an annualized basis, the Company's return on average total assets for the
first three months of 1997 was 1.04%, a decrease of 6.3% compared to the same
period in 1996, and return on average stockholders' equity was 11.72%, a
decrease of 5.8% compared to the same period in 1996.  The decreases in return
on average total assets and return on average stockholders' equity were
primarily due to increases in average total assets and average stockholders'
equity of 8.8% and 8.6%, respectively, over the same period in 1996.  The
increase in average total assets and average stockholders' equity was primarily
attributable to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions in mid-1996 and the issuance
of stock related thereto.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, increased $6,139,000,
or 8.0%, to $82,745,000 for the first three months of 1997 from $76,606,000 for
the same period in 1996.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due
to a 10 basis point (1% equals 100 basis points) increase in the net interest
margin.  In addition, average earning assets for the first three months of 1997
increased $446,933,000, or 6.6%, over the same period in 1996.  The increase
was primarily attributable to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions.

The net interest margin was 4.68% for the first three months of 1997, an
increase of 2.2% over the same period in 1996.  The increase was due to an 8
basis point increase in the yield on earning assets and a 2 basis point decrease
in the rate paid for sources of funds.  The decrease in the rate paid for
sources of funds reflected, among other things, increases in average interest
and noninterest-bearing demand deposits of $443,375,000, or 22.7%, partially
offset by an increase of $371,648,000, or 17.7%, in average time certificates of
deposits.  These increases were primarily attributable to the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions.

Average earning assets increased by $446,933,000, or 6.6%, for the first three
months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.  The increase in average earning
assets for the first three months of 1997 over the first three months of 1996
was due to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions which increased average earning
assets by $696,268,000.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, average
earning assets for the first three months of 1997 decreased $249,335,000, or
3.7%, compared to the same period in 1996. This decrease was primarily due to
reduced levels of state and local government funds requiring collateralization,
a result of the continuing effect of the securitization of $461,449,000 of
adjustable rate mortgage loans with the Federal National Mortgage Association
("FNMA") in 1995.  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, the investment securities
portfolio decreased $187,739,000, or 16.6%, for the first three months of 1997
compared to the same period in 1996. 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 increase in the overall yield of the investment securities
portfolio for the first three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996 was
attributable to the upward repricing of the securitized loans and the purchase
of higher yielding securities in the first quarter of 1997.

Average loans increased by $626,977,000, or 12.0%, for the first three months of
1997 over the same period in 1996, primarily due to the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions.  Excluding the effect of the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions,
average loans for the first three months of 1997 increased 1.7% over the same
period in 1996.  Also, the mix of loans continues to change as the Company
diversifies its loan portfolio, both geographically and by industry.  These
efforts have included the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions and credit extensions
to companies in the media and telecommunications industry located on the
mainland United States.











                                       7
<PAGE>   9
Average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities increased by $473,335,000, or
8.3%, for the first three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996,
primarily due to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions (including the issuance of
$50 million of long-term subordinated debt during the second quarter of 1996 to
fund the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions).  Excluding the impact of the Pacific
Northwest Acquisitions, average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities
decreased $286,153,000, or 5.0%, in the first quarter of 1997 compared to the
first quarter of 1996.  The decrease reflected the repayment of short-term
borrowings from proceeds received from the run-off of the investment securities
portfolio.  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 40.2% of average interest-bearing deposits and
liabilities for the first three months of 1997, as compared to 37.0% for the
same period in 1996.

The following table sets forth the condensed consolidated average balance
sheets, an analysis of interest income/expense and average yield/rate for each
major category of earning assets and interest-bearing deposits and 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 1997 and 1996) to make them comparable with taxable items before
any income taxes are applied.

Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to
multiple borrowers engaged in similar activities which would cause them to be
similarly impacted by economic or other conditions.  At March 31, 1997, the
Company did not have a concentration of loans greater than 10% of total loans
which was not otherwise disclosed as a category of loans as shown in the above
table.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS, Continued

Nonperforming assets increased from $97,982,000, or 1.68% of total loans and
other real estate owned ("OREO") and 1.22% of total assets, at December 31,
1996 to $109,240,000, or 1.83% of total loans and OREO and 1.35% of total
assets, at March 31, 1997.  The increase in nonperforming assets of
$11,258,000, or 11.5%, included an increase of $16,706,000 in restructured
commercial real estate loans, which was principally due to the addition of a
commercial real estate loan identified as a potential problem loan at December
31, 1996. Certain potential problem loans have been classified as nonperforming
assets by management in connection with its review of the loan portfolio.

Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest totalled $30,698,000
at March 31, 1997, an increase of $316,000, or 1.0%, over December 31, 1996.
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 affected by the impact of adverse economic conditions and
trends in Hawaii.  The first and most important of these adverse economic
trends was the continuing weakness of the Hawaii economy's recovery from the
1992 recession.  In contrast to the mainland economy, Hawaii's recovery from
the recession continues to be slow and protracted; Hawaii continues to show
weaknesses in its local real estate market, including declining values in the
leasehold real estate sector.  The second significant adverse economic trend
was the nagging effect of Hurricane Iniki in September 1992.  The island of
Kauai has never totally recovered from the damage to resort, hotel and
agricultural property and the extended insurance claim period that followed.
These trends may continue to affect the level of nonperforming assets and
related charge-offs in future periods.

</TABLE>


Average interest-bearing deposits increased $598,347,000, or 13.6%, over the
first quarter of 1996.  The increase in average interest-bearing deposits was
due primarily to the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions and various deposit product
programs initiated by the Company throughout 1996 and 1997.  As a result of the
aforementioned  acquisitions and the demands of depositors seeking higher
yields through the deposit product programs, the mix of average
interest-bearing deposits changed, with higher yielding average time
certificates of deposits representing 49.6% of average interest-bearing
deposits in the first quarter of 1997, as compared to 47.9% in the same period
in 1996.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES, Continued

For the first three months of 1997, the provision for loan losses was
$3,752,000, an increase of $430,000, or 12.9%, over the same period in 1996.
The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily attributable to the
Pacific Northwest Acquisitions.

Net charge-offs for the first three months of 1997 were $3,864,000, an increase
of $1,394,000, or 56.4%, over the same period in 1996.  The increase in net
charge-offs was primarily due to increased charge-offs in all categories of
consumer loans, which include direct loans, indirect dealer loans and credit
cards and increased charge-offs in first mortgages and home equity lines.
Smaller balance homogeneous credit card and consumer loans are charged off at a
predetermined delinquency status or earlier if the Company determines that the
loan is uncollectable.

The allowance for loan losses decreased to 100% of nonperforming loans at March
31, 1997 (excluding 90 days past due accruing loans) from 118% at December 31,
1996, reflecting the increase in nonperforming loans in the first three months
of 1997.

In management's judgment, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb
potential losses currently inherent in the portfolio at March 31, 1997.
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

Excluding securities transactions, noninterest income for the first three
months of 1997 totalled $28,021,000, an increase of $4,073,000, or 17.0%, over
the same period in the prior year.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions and securities transactions, noninterest income for the first
three months of 1997 increased $2,191,000, or 9.1%, over the same period in
1996.

Trust and investment services income increased $258,000, or 4.0%, for the first
three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased $811,000, or 13.5%, for the first
three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.  Excluding the Pacific
Northwest Acquisitions, service charges on deposit accounts remained relatively
constant for the first three months of 1997 as compared to the same period in
1996.

Other service charges and fees increased $1,911,000, or 19.5%, for the first
three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.  Excluding the Pacific
Northwest Acquisitions, other service charges and fees increased $985,000, or
10.0%, for the first three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996
primarily due to:  (1) higher merchant discount fees; (2) increased income
earned from annuity and mutual fund sales; and (3) increased mortgage servicing
fees for mortgage loans that were originated and sold with servicing retained.

Other noninterest income increased $1,093,000, or 66.3%, for the first three
months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions, other noninterest income increased $927,000, or 56.3%, for the
first three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.  The increase was
primarily due to  increases in foreclosed property income.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES

Noninterest expenses totalled $77,175,000 for the first three months of 1997,
which represented an increase of 14.5% over the same period a year ago.
Excluding the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, noninterest expenses increased
$2,310,000, or 3.4%, for the first three months of 1997 over the same period in
1996.

Total personnel expenses (salaries and wages and employee benefits) increased
$4,038,000, or 12.1%, for the first three months of 1997 over the same period
in 1996.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest Acquisitions, personnel expenses
decreased $413,000, or 1.2%, for the first three months of 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996.

Occupancy expense for the first three months of 1997 increased $4,180,000, or
64.9%, over the same period in 1996.  The increase was primarily due to the
Pacific Northwest Acquisitions and costs associated with the relocation into
the new administrative headquarters building (including related amortization of
previously capitalized expenses during the construction period).

Equipment expense increased $605,000, or 11.0%, for the first three months of
1997 over the same period in 1996.  Excluding the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions, equipment expense increased $235,000, or 4.3%, for the first
three months of 1997 over the same period in 1996.  The increase was a result
of higher service contract expenses in 1997.

Excluding a pre-tax loss of $1,945,000 (which actually resulted in an after-tax
gain of $399,000 due to a net tax benefit of $2,344,000 recognized through
reversal of the related tax liabilities) recognized on the sale of a certain
leveraged lease in the first quarter of 1996 and the Pacific Northwest
Acquisitions, other noninterest expenses for the first three months increased
$726,000, or 3.6%, over the same period in 1996.  The increase was primarily due
to higher interchange settlement fees, outside services, legal fees (primarily
related to foreclosed property), a loss on the sale of a certain loan and a loss
on the sale of certain real estate.  This increase was partially offset by:  
(1) nonrecurring losses incurred in connection with a certain credit card fraud
in the first quarter of 1996; (2) lower foreclosed property expenses; and (3) an
increase in the cash surrender value of certain executive life insurance
policies (recorded as a credit to insurance expense) in 1997.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate (exclusive of the tax equivalent
adjustment) for the first three months of 1997 was 30.7% as compared to 31.0%
for the same period in 1996.  Although the effective income tax rate remained
relatively constant, the rate for the first quarter of 1997 was positively
impacted by (i) an income tax benefit resulting from the partial recognition of
previously unrecognized tax credits and (ii) partial reversal of an overaccrual
of State of Hawaii income taxes.  The effective tax rate for the first quarter
of 1996 was positively impacted by the reversal of deferred tax liabilities
(reflecting a change in Hawaii tax laws) related to the aforementioned leveraged
lease sale in 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL

Stockholders' equity was $715,652,000 at March 31, 1997, a 1.4% increase over
$705,884,000 at December 31, 1996.  The ratio of average stockholders' equity
to average total assets remained unchanged at 8.9% for the first quarter of
1997 and 1996.  There was no significant change in the Company's liquidity
position during the first quarter of 1997.

31, 1997:

(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.

     deemed representative of the interest factor. Fixed charges, including
     interest on deposits, include all interest, whether expensed or
