NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of BancWest Corporation and
Subsidiaries (the "Company" or "we/our") conform with generally accepted
accounting principles and practices within the banking industry. The following
is a summary of significant accounting policies:
CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the
accounts of BancWest Corporation ("BWE") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries:
First Hawaiian Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("First Hawaiian"); Bank
of the West and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("Bank of the West"); FHL Lease
Holding Company, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary; First Hawaiian Capital I
(of which BWE owns all the common securities); and FHI International, Inc. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. 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.
RECLASSIFICATIONS AND RESTATEMENTS
Certain amounts in the 1999 consolidated financial statements were
reclassified in certain respects to conform to the 2000 presentation. Such
reclassifications did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements.
In addition, consolidated financial statements for all periods presented
have been restated to include the results of operations, financial position and
cash flows for the 1999 acquisition of SierraWest Bancorp, which was accounted
for as a pooling of interests. See Note 6.
All per share information has been restated to reflect a two-for-one
stock split done in the fourth quarter of 1999. In addition, all per share
computations include both common and Class A common shares.
2. NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging
activities. It requires the recognition of all derivative instruments in the
statement of financial position as either assets or liabilities and the
measurement of derivative instruments at fair value. The accounting for the
gains or losses resulting from changes in the value of those derivatives will
depend on the intended use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge
accounting. The transition adjustments resulting from adopting SFAS No. 133 will
be reported in net income or accumulated other adjustments to stockholders'
equity, as appropriate, as the effect of a change in accounting principle and
presented in a manner similar to the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date
of FASB Statement No. 133." The original effective date for SFAS No. 133 was for
all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. As a
result of SFAS No. 137, the effective date for SFAS No. 133 is for all fiscal
quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the
FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and
Certain Hedging Activities - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No.
138 addresses certain issues relating to the implementation of SFAS No. 133.
Although considerable progress has been made in preparing for SFAS No. 133,
interpretative guidance continues to be issued by the FASB that may
significantly affect certain activities. As a result, we are developing and
implementing strategies to adopt SFAS No. 133 for activities for which no
further FASB interpretative guidance is expected. For certain other activities,
contingency plans are being developed, and FASB actions are being closely
monitored for indications of final rulings. The adoption of SFAS No. 133, as
amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138, is not expected to have a material effect on
the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" (a replacement
of SFAS No. 125). This statement revises the standards for accounting for
securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and
requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of SFAS No. 125's
provisions without reconsideration. This statement is effective for transfers
and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring
after March 31, 2001. This statement is effective for recognition and
reclassification of collateral and for disclosure relating to securitization
transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. The
adoption of SFAS No. 140 is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.

</TABLE>
We consider loans to be impaired when it is probable that the Company
will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of
the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. For a loan that has
been restructured, the contractual terms of the loan agreement refer to the
terms of the original loan agreement. Not all impaired loans are necessarily
placed on nonaccrual status; for example, restructured loans performing under
restructured terms beyond a specific period may be classified as accruing, but
may still be deemed impaired. Impaired loans without a related allowance for
credit losses are generally collateralized by assets with fair values in excess
of the recorded investment in the loans. Interest payments on impaired loans are
generally applied to reduce the outstanding principal amounts of such loans.
5. MERGER WITH BANCWEST CORPORATION AND RELATED MATTERS
On November 1, 1998, we consummated the merger (the "BancWest Merger")
of the former BancWest Corporation, parent company of Bank of the West, with and
into First Hawaiian, Inc. ("FHI"). FHI, the surviving corporation of the
BancWest Merger, changed its name to BancWest Corporation on November 1, 1998.
We recorded pre-tax restructuring, BancWest Merger-related and other
nonrecurring costs totaling $25.527 million in 1998. In connection with
recording these costs, a liability of $11.302 million was recorded in 1998, of
which $4.698 million remained accrued as of December 31, 1999. During the first
nine months of 2000, this liability was reduced by $1.466 million related to
excess leased commercial properties. As of September 30, 2000, $2.970 million
related to excess leased commercial properties and $262,000 in other
restructuring, merger-related and other nonrecurring costs remained accrued and
unpaid. On July 19, 1999, we announced plans to consolidate our three existing
data centers into a single data center in Honolulu. The consolidation is being
accomplished through a facilities management contract with a service provider
assuming management of First Hawaiian's existing information technology center.
As a result of this consolidation effort, we recorded pre-tax restructuring and
other nonrecurring costs of $6.854 million in the third quarter of 1999. Those
costs were comprised of $3.777 million for the write-off of capitalized
information technology costs, $1.454 million for employee severance costs and
$1.623 million for other nonrecurring costs. At December 31, 1999, the amount of
the outstanding liability relating to these costs was $2.618 million. During the
first nine months of 2000, $1.006 million in other nonrecurring costs and
$364,000 for employee severance were paid, further reducing this liability. At
September 30, 2000, the remaining amounts accrued and unpaid for restructuring
and other nonrecurring costs related to the consolidation of data centers were
$1.072 million for employee severance costs and $176,000 for other nonrecurring
costs.
6. MERGER WITH SIERRAWEST BANCORP
In connection with our 1999 acquisition of SierraWest Bancorp, we
recorded pre-tax restructuring, merger-related and other nonrecurring costs of
$10.680 million in 1999. These costs were comprised of $3.358 million in
severance and other employee benefits, $1.648 million in equipment and occupancy
expense, $4.219 million in expenses for legal and other professional services
and $1.455 million in other nonrecurring costs. As of December 31, 1999,
$949,000 of these costs remained accrued. During the first nine months of 2000,
we paid $439,000 in severance and other employee benefits and $267,000 in other
restructuring, merger-related and other nonrecurring costs, further reducing
this liability. At September 30, 2000, approximately $243,000 of severance and
other employee benefits remained accrued and unpaid.
7. TERMINATION OF BRANCH ACQUISITION AGREEMENTS
In January 2000, we agreed to acquire branches being divested as part of
a now cancelled merger between Zions Bancorporation and First Security
Corporation. In the second quarter of 2000, BancWest received $5.0 million in
termination fees called for in the agreements with Zions and First Security.
During the second quarter of 2000, we recognized approximately $3.0 million in
costs related to the cancelled branch acquisitions.

8. OPERATING SEGMENTS
As of September 30, 2000, we had two reportable operating segments: Bank
of the West and First Hawaiian. The Bank of the West segment operates primarily
on the mainland United States. The First Hawaiian segment operates primarily in
the State of Hawaii.
The financial results of our operating segments are presented on an
accrual basis. There are no significant differences between the accounting
policies of the segments as compared to the Company's consolidated financial
statements. We evaluate the performance of these segments and allocate resources
to them based on net interest income and net income. There are no material
intersegment revenues.
The tables below present information about the Company's operating
segments as of or for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively.

The increases in net income, operating earnings, cash earnings and operating
cash earnings for the first nine months of 2000 compared to the same period in
1999 were primarily due to higher revenues, with net interest income increasing
by 8.4%, or $43.221 million, and noninterest income increasing by 8.9%, or
$12.672 million, excluding the $5.0 million in termination fees relating to the
termination of our agreement to acquire branches from Zions Bancorporation and
First Security Corporation and a gain on sale of surplus property of $1.218
million in the second quarter of 2000. Revenues increased mainly because of the
growth in loan volumes in the mainland United States, higher net interest margin
and increased noninterest income. We also increased net income and operating
earnings by containing noninterest expense to an increase of 2.1%, or $8.189
million, for the first nine months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999,
excluding merger-related charges and nonrecurring expenses of approximately $3.0
million related to the cancelled branch acquisition in 2000; $17.534 million for
the consolidation of data centers and the SierraWest merger in 1999; and $1.277
million for the charitable donation of a recreational center in the second
quarter of 1999. The improved quarterly results in the third quarter of 2000
compared to the same period in 1999 were primarily caused by (1) higher net
income, primarily from loan growth in the mainland United States; (2) higher
noninterest income; and (3) containment of noninterest expense.
The following table shows diluted earnings, operating earnings, cash earnings
and operating cash earnings per share for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999. All per-share data have

1999.

Net interest income $189,840 $175,505 8.2%
</TABLE>
The increase in net interest income in the first nine months of 2000 over the
same period in 1999 was primarily due to a 45-basis-point rise (1% equals 100
basis points) in the yield on average earning assets and an increase in average
earning assets of 8.0%, or $1.152 billion, in the first nine months of 2000,
partially offset by a 43-basis-point increase in the rate paid on funding
sources.
The increase in net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000
over the same period in 1999 was primarily due to a 61-basis-point rise (1%
equals 100 basis points) in the yield on average earning assets and an increase
in average earning assets of 9.1%, or $1.330 billion, for the quarter ended
September 30, 2000, partially offset by a 64-basis-point increase in the rate
paid on funding sources.

Yield on average earning assets 8.41% 7.80% 61
Rate paid on funding sources 3.69 3.05 64
Net interest margin 4.72 4.75 (3)
</TABLE>
The increase in the net interest margin in the first nine months of 2000 over
the same period in 1999 was primarily due to increases in the yield on average
earning assets, partially offset by increases in the rate paid on funding
sources. Both the yield on average earning assets and the rate paid on funding
sources reflect the cumulative effect through September 30, 2000 of the six
interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve Bank in the past 12 months.
The decrease in the net interest margin in the third quarter of 2000 as compared
to the same period in 1999 is primarily due to the 64-basis-point increase in
the rate paid on funding sources, reflecting the multiple rate increases by the
Federal Reserve in recent months. This increase was partially offset by the
61-basis-point increase on the yield on average earning assets. The interest
rate spread, the difference between the yield on average earning assets and the
rate paid on interest-bearing deposits and liabilities, has decreased by 21
basis points to 4.05% in the third quarter of 2000, as compared to the same
period in 1999.

Average interest-bearing
deposits and liabilities 13,534,780 12,642,962 7.1
</TABLE>
The increase in average earning assets was primarily due to increases in average
loans and leases and investment securities. The increase in average loans and
leases was primarily due to the growth of our Bank of the West operating
segment's loan and lease portfolio. Significant increases in consumer loan and
lease financing volumes reflect the continued economic strength of the Northern
California and Pacific Northwest regions.
The increase in average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities was primarily
due to an increase in interest-bearing deposits. Expansion of our customer
deposit base and more time deposits, primarily from our Bank of the West
operating segment, contributed to the increase.

</TABLE>
The loan and lease portfolio is the largest component of total earning assets
and accounts for the greatest portion of total interest income. At September 30,
2000, total net loans and leases were $13.394 billion, representing increases of
8.3% and 10.2% over December 31, 1999 and September 30, 1999, respectively. The
increase from September 30, 2000, as compared to September 30, 1999, was
primarily due to increases in consumer loans and lease financing, primarily in
our Bank of the West operating segment. The increase was partially offset by
decreases in all real estate loan categories and certain consumer loans in our
First Hawaiian operating segment.
Commercial, financial and agricultural loans as of September 30, 2000 increased
$262.339 million, or 11.9%, over December 31, 1999, and increased $327.826
million, or 15.3%, over September 30, 1999. The Company continues its efforts to
diversify its loan and lease portfolio, both geographically and by industry,
with credit extensions on the mainland United States accounting for the majority
of the increase in loan and lease balances and the geographic and industry
diversification during the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Overall loan
volume in the First Hawaiian operating segment increased modestly, reflecting
the growing rebound in the Hawaii economy.
Insured, guaranteed or conventional residential real estate loans increased
$13.984 million, or .7%, from December 31, 1999, and decreased $43.099 million,
or 2.2%, from September 30, 1999. The rising interest rate environment, which
has resulted in a decrease in the production of new loans as well as
payoffs/paydowns, were the primary reasons for the decrease from September 30,
1999. The modest increase over December 31, 1999 was primarily due to the
effects of the slowly strengthening Hawaiian economy.

LOANS AND LEASES, CONTINUED
Consumer loans as of September 30, 2000 increased $475.026 million, or 15.9%,
over December 31, 1999, and $604.190 million, or 21.1%, over September 30, 1999.
Consumer loans consist primarily of direct and indirect automobile, recreational
vehicle, marine, credit card and unsecured financing. The increase in consumer
loans at September 30, 2000 as compared to December 31, 1999 and September 30,
1999 was primarily a result of growth in our Bank of the West operating segment
on the mainland United States.
Lease financing as of September 30, 2000 increased $193.886 million, or 11.2%,
over December 31, 1999, and $262.894 million, or 15.8%, over September 30, 1999.
The increase in lease financing from September 30, 1999 was primarily due to an
increase in the automobile lease portfolio in our Bank of the West operating
segment. The increase in lease financing at September 30, 2000, as compared to
December 31, 1999, was primarily due to increases on the mainland United States.
The Company's foreign loans are principally in Guam and Saipan. Foreign loans as
of September 30, 2000 decreased $3.984 million, or 1.1%, compared to December
31, 1999, with approximately 93% domiciled in Guam and Saipan.
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 September 30, 2000, we
did not have a concentration of loans greater than 10% of total loans which is
not otherwise disclosed as a category of loans as shown in the above table.

Average interest-bearing deposits increased $599.259 million, or 5.3%, and
$706.272 million, or 6.5%, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30,
2000, respectively, over the same periods in 1999. The increases were due
primarily to the growth in our customer deposit base, primarily in the Bank of
the West operating segment, and various deposit product programs that we
initiated. In addition, time deposits increased due to our funding asset growth
by utilizing negotiable and brokered time certificates of deposits. The
increases in nearly all of the rates paid on deposits reflect the higher
interest rate environment, caused primarily by rate increases by the Federal
Reserve.
Average noninterest-bearing demand products increased $235.673 million, or
16.5%, and $107.308 million, or 7.1%, for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 2000, respectively, over the same periods in 1999. The increases
were primarily due to growth in noninterest-bearing demand accounts, primarily
in the Bank of the West operating segment, reflecting the overall strength of
the economy in its area of operation and specialized promotional efforts. The
increase for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was higher than for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000, compared to the same periods in 1999, because
of the reclassification in the first quarter of 1999 of certain portions of
noninterest-bearing demand deposit accounts to the savings deposit category for
reserve requirement purposes. The total amounts reclassified for the quarter and
nine months ended September 30, 2000 were $1.633 billion and $1.591 billion,
respectively. In 1999, the amounts reclassified for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 2000 were $1.499 billion and $1.353 billion, respectively.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS, CONTINUED
Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2000 were $119.940 million, or .88% of
total loans and leases and other real estate owned ("OREO") and repossessed
personal property, compared to 1.09% at September 30, 1999. Nonperforming assets
at September 30, 2000 were .67% of total assets, compared to .80% at September
30, 1999.
Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2000 decreased by $6.816 million, or 5.4%,
from December 31, 1999. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in
nonaccrual commercial, financial and agricultural loans and all components of
nonaccrual real estate loans. The decrease in nonaccrual commercial, financial
and agricultural loans was primarily due to the transfer of a loan totaling
$4.692 million to accrual status. The decrease in real estate - residential
loans was primarily attributable to the transfer of nonaccrual loans and leases
to OREO, payoffs and partial paydowns of nonaccrual loans and leases. These
decreases were partially offset by an increase in the lease financing and
foreign components of nonaccrual loans and leases.
Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2000 decreased by $14.037 million, or
10.5%, from September 30, 1999. The decrease was primarily attributable to
decreases in nonaccrual real estate and restructured real estate - construction
loans. The decrease in nonaccrual real estate was primarily attributable to the
transfers of nonaccrual loans and leases to OREO, pay-offs and partial pay-downs
of nonaccrual loans and leases. The decrease in restructured loans and leases
was primarily due to the partial charge-offs of a real estate construction loan
of $5.875 million. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in the
lease financing and foreign components of nonaccrual loans and leases and
restuctured real estate - commercial loans.
We generally place a loan or lease on nonaccrual status (1) when management
believes that collection of principal or income has become doubtful, (2) when a
loan is first classified as impaired, or (3) when loans and leases are 90 days
past due as to principal or income, unless they are well secured and in the
process of collection. We may make an exception to the general 90-day-past-due
rule when the fair value of the collateral exceeds our recorded investment in
the loan or when other factors indicate that the borrower will shortly bring the
loan current. The majority of consumer loans and leases are subject to our
general policies regarding nonaccrual loans. However, instead of placing certain
past-due consumer loans and leases on nonaccrual status, we charge them off when
they reach a predetermined delinquency status varying from 120 to 180 days,
depending on product type (or earlier if we determine that the loan is
uncollectible). When we place a loan or lease on nonaccrual status, previously
accrued and uncollected interest is reversed against interest income of the
current period. When we receive a cash interest payment on a nonaccrual loan, we
apply it as a reduction of the principal balance when we have doubts about the
ultimate collection of the principal. Otherwise, we record such payments as
income.
Nonaccrual loans and leases are generally returned to accrual status when they
become (1) current as to principal and interest or (2) both well secured and in
the process of collection.
Other than the loans listed in the table on page 22, at September 30, 2000 we
were not aware of any significant potential problem loans where possible credit
problems of the borrower caused us to seriously question the borrower's ability
to repay the loan under existing terms.
Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing totaled $14.001 million at
September 30, 2000, a decrease of $12.466 million, or 47.1%, from September 30,
1999. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest decreased by
$4.021 million, or 22.3%, from December 31, 1999 to September 30, 2000. The
decreases are primarily due to lower real estate loan delinquencies. All of the
loans that are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are, in
management's judgment, adequately collateralized and in the process of
collection.
Hawaii has finally begun to recover from the economic stagnation that plagued it
through much of the 1990's. This improvement in Hawaii's economic condition is
one of the factors that led to the decrease in nonperforming assets in the First
Hawaiian operating segment. Also, the economies in California and the Pacific
Northwest, the Bank of the West operating segment's primary areas of operation,
continue to expand. These economic trends have helped to bring about the decline
in nonperforming assets since September 30, 1999.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES, CONTINUED
The provision for credit losses for the first nine months of 2000 was $43.980
million, an increase of $8.575 million, or 24.2%, over the same period in 1999.
The increase in the provision for credit losses for the first nine months of
2000 over the same period in 1999 primarily reflects the larger loan portfolio
resulting from our continued loan volume growth.
The provision for credit losses is based upon management's judgment as to the
adequacy of the allowance for credit losses (the "Allowance") to absorb probable
losses inherent in the portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The Company uses
a systematic methodology to determine the adequacy of the Allowance and related
provision for credit losses to be reported for financial statement purposes. The
determination of the adequacy of the Allowance is ultimately one of management's
judgment, which includes consideration of many factors, including, among other
things, the amount of problem and potential problem loans and leases, net
charge-off experience, changes in the composition of the loan and lease
portfolio by type and location of loans and leases and in overall loan and lease
risk profile and quality, general economic factors and the fair value of
collateral.
Our approach to managing exposure to credit risk involves an integrated program
of setting appropriate standards for credit underwriting and diversification,
monitoring trends that may affect the risk profile of the credit portfolio and
making appropriate adjustments to reflect changes in economic and financial
conditions that could affect the quality of the portfolio and loss probability.
The components of this integrated program include:
- Setting Underwriting and Grading Standards. In 1996, we refined
our loan grading system to ten different principal risk
categories where "1" is "no risk" and "10" is "loss" and began
an effort to decrease our exposure to customers in the weaker
credit categories. We also established risk parameters so that
the cost of credit risk is an integral part of the pricing and
evaluation of credit decisions and the setting of portfolio
targets.
- Diversification. We actively manage our credit portfolio to
avoid excessive concentration by obligor, risk grade, industry,
product and geographic location. As part of this process, we
also monitor changes in risk correlation among concentration
categories. In addition, we seek to reduce our exposure to
concentrations by actively participating portions of our
commercial and commercial real estate loans to other banks.
- Risk Mitigation. Over the past few years, we have reduced our
exposure to higher-risk areas such as real estate construction
(which accounted for only 3.2% of total loans and leases at
September 30, 2000), Hawaii commercial real estate, health care,
hotel and agricultural loans. We have also reduced our exposure
in the Asia-Pacific region from $101.0 million at December 31,
1997 to $46.3 million at September 30, 2000. These outstanding
loans are collateralized by Hawaii real estate and letters of
credit.
- Restricted Participation in Syndicated National Credits. We
restrict our participation in syndicated national credits
primarily to providing back-up commercial paper facilities to
investment-grade companies. In addition to the back-up
commercial paper facilities, we participate in media finance
credits in the national market, one of our traditional niches
where we have developed a special expertise over a long period
of time and with experienced personnel. At September 30, 2000,
the combined ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans for
both shared national credits and media finance aggregated 0.78%.
- Emphasis on Consumer Lending. Consumer loans represent our
single largest category of loans and leases. We focus our
consumer lending activities on loan grades with predictable loss
rates. As a result, we are able to use formula-based approaches
to calculate appropriate reserve levels that reflect historical
experience. We generally do not participate in subprime lending
activities. We also seek to reduce our credit exposures where
feasible by obtaining third-party insurance or similar
protections. For example, in our vehicle lease portfolio (which
represents approximately 63% of our lease financing portfolio
and 23% of our combined lease financing and consumer loans at
September 30, 2000), we obtain third-party insurance for the
estimated residual value of the leased vehicle. To the extent
that these policies include deductible values we set aside
reserves to fully cover the uninsured portion.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES, CONTINUED
Charge-offs were $43.231 million for the first nine months of 2000, an increase
of $4.351 million, or 11.2%, over the same period in 1999. The increase was
primarily due to charge-offs of one real estate - construction loan, three real
estate - commercial loans, several leases and consumer loans in the first nine
months of 2000, totaling $31.663 million.
For the first nine months of 2000, recoveries increased by $1.470 million, or
19.0%, over the same period in 1999. The increase in recoveries was primarily in
consumer, leasing and commercial, financial and agricultural loans.
The Allowance increased to 1.93 times nonperforming loans and leases (excluding
90 days or more past due accruing loans and leases) at September 30, 2000 from
1.58 times at September 30, 1999. The increase in the ratio is principally due
to an increase in the Allowance as a result of the growth in our loan portfolio
and a decrease in nonperforming loans and leases.
In management's judgment, the Allowance was adequate to absorb potential losses
currently inherent in the loan and lease portfolio at September 30, 2000.
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.

As the table above shows in more detail, noninterest income increased by 15.2%
and 13.2% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. Factors causing the
increases include:
- In the second quarter of 2000, we received $5.0 million in termination
fees related to the previous plan to acquire branches that were to be
divested under the terminated Zions Bancorporation and First Security
Corporation merger. Also in the second quarter of 2000, we recorded the
gain on the sale of a surplus facility of $1.218 million. Both of these
items were included in other noninterest income. Excluding these two
items, total noninterest income increased by 8.9% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000, compared to the same period in 1999.
- Service charges on deposit accounts increased for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 2000, compared to the same periods in 1999,
primarily due to higher levels of deposits caused by the expansion of
our customer deposit base, predominately in our Bank of the West
operating segment.
- Trust and investment services income increased for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 2000, compared to the same periods in 1999,
primarily due to increased money management services to both retail and
institutional clients, reflecting our continuing efforts to strengthen
and diversify our revenue base.
- Other service charges and fees increased for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 2000, compared to the same periods in 1999,
primarily due to: (1) higher merchant services fees, due to higher fee
charges, increased volume and more merchant outlets; (2) higher bank
card and ATM convenience fee income; (3) higher miscellaneous service
fees; and (4) higher annuity and mutual fund sales.
BancWest and one of its bank subsidiaries hold about 5% of the shares of Star
Systems, Inc. ("Star Systems"), the nation's largest PIN-secured payments
network, which recently announced a merger agreement with Concord EFS, Inc. If
the Star-Concord merger is completed as planned during the first half of 2001,
Concord will issue 24.75 million unregistered shares to Star Systems
shareholders. BancWest may earn significant noninterest income as a result of
receiving these shares in the first half of 2001.

As the table above shows in more detail, noninterest expense decreased by 9.4%
and 1.9% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 1999. Factors causing the decreases include:
- In the second quarter of 2000, we recognized approximately $3.0 million
in expenses related to the planned acquisition of divested branches
resulting from the terminated merger of Zions Bancorporation and First
Security Corporation. In the second quarter of 1999, we donated a
recreation center to a community group in Hawaii resulting in a pre-tax
loss of $1.277 million. Both of these items were included in other
noninterest expense in the respective years. Excluding these two items
and merger-related charges, noninterest expense increased over the same
periods in 1999 by 2.0% for the quarter and 2.1% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000.
- The reduction of equipment expenses and increase in outside service
expense for the first nine months of 2000, as compared to the same
period in 1999, are both related to the facilities management agreement
that we have entered into for the consolidation and operation of a
single data center. The decrease in equipment expense is due to the
transfer of certain assets to the outside service provider under the
facilities management agreement. The increase in the outside service
expense is primarily due to the fee paid for the facilities management
agreement.
- Occupancy expense increased for the first nine months and third quarter
of 2000 over the same periods in 1999, due primarily to increases in
rent expense for certain facilities.

INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective income tax rates (exclusive of the tax equivalent
adjustment) for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000 were 41.5%
and 41.8%, respectively, as compared to 43.4% and 42.1% for the same periods in
1999. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to certain
non-deductible restructuring, merger-related and other nonrecurring cost
incurred in 1999, partially offset by the tax benefits related to the charitable
donation of the recreation center in the second quarter of 1999.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
Stockholders' equity was $1.947 billion at September 30, 2000, an increase of
5.6% over $1.843 billion at December 31, 1999. Compared to September 30, 1999,
stockholders' equity at September 30, 2000 increased by $126.264 million, or
6.9%. The increase was primarily due to net income for the respective periods,
less dividends paid.
Under regulation established to ensure capital adequacy, the Company is required
to maintain minimum amounts of Tier 1 and Total Capital and minimum ratios of
Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital to risk-weighted assets, respectively, and of
Tier 1 Capital to average assets (leverage). These amounts and ratios as of
September 30, 2000 are set forth below:

</TABLE>
As of September 30, 2000 the Company's depository institution subsidiaries were
categorized as well-capitalized under the applicable federal regulations
regarding the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be
categorized as well-capitalized, a bank must have a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of 6.00% or greater, a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.00% or
greater, a leverage ratio of 5.00% or greater and not be subject to any
agreement, order or directive to meet a specific capital level for any capital
measure.
NEW MEXICO AND NEVADA BRANCH ACQUISITIONS
In September 2000, Bank of the West entered into agreements to acquire branches
in New Mexico and Nevada that are being divested by First Security Corporation
in connection with its merger with Wells Fargo & Company. If the acquisition is
completed Bank of the West will add 23 branches in New Mexico and seven in
Nevada, along with approximately $1.2 billion in deposits and $300 million in
commercial, consumer and agricultural loans. Bank of the West expects to incur
pre-tax merger and integration charges of approximately $4 million during the
fourth quarter of this year and the first quarter of 2001 for the integration of
the branches.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
