| Organization and Basis of Presentation | 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation First Hawaiian, Inc. (“FHI” or the “Parent”), a bank holding company, owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of First Hawaiian Bank (“FHB” or the “Bank”), its only direct, wholly owned subsidiary. FHB offers a comprehensive suite of banking services to consumer and commercial customers, including loans, deposit products, wealth management, insurance, trust, retirement planning, credit card and merchant processing services. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of First Hawaiian, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period consolidated financial information, have been made. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. Intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events, actual results may differ from these estimates. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The following Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) have been issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are applicable to the Company in future reporting periods. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public companies to disclose, in the notes to financial statements, specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period which include, for example, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. In addition, certain expense amounts already required to be disclosed under current GAAP will need to be presented within the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements prescribed by this ASU. Public entities will also be required to disclose: (1) a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively and (2) the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. The FASB also issued ASU No. 2025-01 in January 2025 to clarify that the effective date of ASU No. 2024-03 for public entities is for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Further, ASU No. 2024-03 is applied prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods beginning after the effective date, meaning that the disclosures required under ASU No. 2024-03 do not need to be included in the financial statements for reporting periods beginning before the effective date that are presented for comparative purposes. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU intends to improve the operability of internal-use software accounting guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. Under current accounting principles, entities are required to capitalize development costs incurred for internal-use software depending on the nature of the costs and the project stage during which they occur. With the removal of software development project stages, the amendments in this ASU require that an entity start capitalizing software costs when both of these conditions are met: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (referred to as the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold,” which also takes into consideration whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities of the software (referred to as “significant development uncertainty”)). This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period and application of the new guidance can be done prospectively, retrospectively, or through a modified prospective transition approach. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-08, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans, which amends the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326 on the accounting for certain purchased loans. Under this ASU, entities must account for acquired loans (excluding credit cards) that meet certain criteria at acquisition (“purchased seasoned loans”) by recognizing them at their purchase price plus an allowance for expected credit losses (known as the “gross-up approach”). Purchased seasoned loans are defined as either: (1) non-PCD loans (loans that were not purchased with credit deterioration) that are obtained in a business combination, or (2) non-PCD loans that (a) are obtained in an asset acquisition or upon consolidation of a variable interest entity that is not a business and (b) are acquired more than 90 days after their origination date by a transferee that was not involved in their origination. This ASU also introduces an accounting policy election related to the subsequent measurement of expected credit losses for entities that use a method other than a discounted cash flow analysis to estimate credit losses on purchased seasoned loans. If this accounting policy is elected, entities can use the amortized cost basis of the asset to subsequently measure their allowance for credit losses. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements. This ASU amends certain aspects of the existing hedge accounting guidance in ASC Topic 815 by enabling entities to apply hedge accounting to a greater number of highly effective economic hedges in the following five areas: (1) similar risk assessment for cash flow hedges, (2) hedging forecasted interest payments on choose-your-rate debt instruments, (3) cash flow hedges of nonfinancial forecasted transactions, (4) net written options as hedging instruments, and (5) foreign-currency-denominated debt instrument as hedging instrument and hedged item (dual hedge). This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
