Bank of Hawaii's earnings jump nearly 40% on stronger interest margins and solid real estate-backed loans.

Bank of Hawaii has boosted its earnings by nearly 40% this year, driven by improved net interest margins and a strong portfolio of legacy fixed-rate assets. The bank's loan book is mostly secured by real estate with low loan-to-value ratios, reducing credit risk compared to peers. With rising capital levels, Bank of Hawaii is increasing shareholder payouts, trading at under 13 times forward earnings, making it an attractive option for investors seeking total returns. While funding cost pressures may arise, the bank's margin expansion potential remains significant.
