NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)






Note 1 ·Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information, the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required 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 balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the following notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.
In the opinion of HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments required by GAAP to fairly state consolidated HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s financial positions as of September 30, 20172023 and December 31, 2016,2022 and the results of their operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172023 and 20162022 and their cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 20172023 and 2016.2022. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed below or in other referenced material. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Recent accounting pronouncements.
Stock compensation.Credit Losses. In March 2016, the 2022, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation2022-02, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 718)326): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures,” which simplifies several aspects ofeliminates the accounting for share-based payment transactions.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017. From January 1, 2017, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. From January 1, 2017, no excess tax benefits or deficiencies are included in determining the assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method of calculating diluted EPS. As of January 1, 2017, HEI adopted an accounting policy to account for forfeitures when they occur.
From January 1, 2017, HEI retrospectively applied the cashflow guidance for taxes paid (equivalent toTroubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the value of withheld sharesrecognition and measurement guidance for tax withholding purposes) and excess tax benefits. Excess tax benefits are classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity and the cash payments made to taxing authorities on the employees’ behalf for withheld shares are classified as financing activities on the HEI unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods that are presented.
Goodwill impairment. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” Prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2017-04,TDRs, an entity was required to perform a two-step testmust apply the loan refinancing and restructuring guidance in paragraphs 310-20-35-9 through 35-11 to determine the amount, if any,whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of goodwill impairment. In Step 1, an entity compared the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeded its fair value, the entity performed Step 2 and compared the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill for that reporting unit. An impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of goodwill for the reporting unit exceeded the implied fair value of that goodwill would then be recorded. ASU No. 2017-04 removes the second step of the test. An entity will apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value. ASU No. 2017-04 does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment.
existing loan. The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2017-04 prospectivelyamendments in the fourth quarter of 2017 and believes the impact of adoption will not be material to the Company’s and Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated financial statements.
Revenues from contracts with customersIn May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The core principle of the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 isthis update also require that an entity should recognize revenue to depictdisclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the transferscope of promised goods or services to customersSubtopic 326-20, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses-Measured at Amortized Cost.” Gross write-off information must be included in an amountthe vintage disclosures required for public business entities in accordance with paragraph 325-20-50-6, which requires that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should:  (1) identifydisclose the contract/s with a customer, (2) identifyamortized cost basis of financing receivables by credit-quality indicator and class of financing receivable by year of origination. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ASB updated the performance obligationsaccounting for certain loan refinancings and restructurings, and included the required disclosures in the contract, (3) determineNotes herein in accordance with ASU No. 2022-02.

Note 2 · Maui windstorm and wildfires
On August 8, 2023, a number of brush fires in the transaction price, (4) allocateWest Maui (Lahaina) and Upcountry Maui areas, caused widespread property damage, including damage to property of the transaction priceUtilities, and at least 99 fatalities in Lahaina (the Maui windstorm and wildfires). The Maui windstorm and wildfires were fueled by extreme winds and drought-like conditions in those parts of Maui. According to the performance obligationsCounty of Maui, in addition to the loss of life, over 3,450 acres burned and over 2,500 structures were destroyed. In Lahaina, a fire was reported at about 6:30 a.m. (the “Morning Fire”) and appears to have been caused by power lines that fell in high winds and spread into a field near the Intermediate School. The Maui County Fire Department responded promptly to the Morning Fire, and according to the Fire Department’s public statement that morning, by 9 a.m. the Morning Fire was “100% contained.” The Maui County fire chief subsequently reported that the Fire Department had determined that the Morning Fire was “extinguished.” Shortly before 3 p.m. that day, while the power remained off, Utility crew members saw a small fire in the contract,same field about 75 yards away from Lahainaluna Road. They immediately called 911 and (5) recognize revenue when, or as,reported the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU No. 2014-09 also requires disclosurefire (the “Afternoon Fire”). At the time of the nature, amount, timingAfternoon Fire, the Company’s power lines in the area where that fire ignited were not energized and uncertaintyhad not been energized for more than six hours. By the time the Maui County Fire Department arrived back on the scene, it was not able to contain the Afternoon Fire and it spread out of revenuecontrol toward Lahaina. No determination as to the cause of the Afternoon Fire has been made. The Company believes that most of the property damage and cash flows arisingall of the fatalities are from contracts with customers.the Afternoon Fire.

The circumstances surrounding the Maui windstorm and wildfires are currently the subject of several investigations. As of September 30, 2017,2023, on a consolidated basis, the Company has identified its revenue streams from, and performance obligationsincurred $27.6 million of incremental expenses related to contracts with customersthe Maui windstorm and has performed an analysis of these revenue streams forwildfires, which excludes the impacts of Topic 606.

Subsequent event - One ‘Ohana Initiative below. In addition, the Utilities incurred $8.0 million of total capital costs related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires.
Restoration costs and recoveries. The Utilities have since restored electric service to more than 95% of homes and businesses on the island of Maui that were affected by the Maui windstorm and wildfires. Replacement of poles, transformers, power lines and other equipment in and around Lahaina and Upcountry Maui that were damaged is ongoing. On August 21, 2023, Maui Electric filed an application with the Public Utilities Commission of the State of Hawaii (PUC), requesting the PUC’s approval for the deferral accounting treatment for incremental non-labor expenses related to the Utilities’ response and restoration efforts and other expenses arising from and associated with the Maui windstorm and wildfires, beginning from August 8, 2023 and until December 31, 2024, to preserve the Utilities’ ability to seek cost recovery through a separate request when the total costs and impacts are better known. On October 13, 2023, the Utilities filed an amended application to add Hawaiian Electric and Hawaii Electric Light as applicants. As of September 30, 2023, the amended application was subject to Topic 606 is largely the Utilities’ electric sales revenuePUC’s approval and no costs have been deferred.
While the Utilities plan to seek recovery of damage to covered electrical infrastructure under their insurance programs, the timing and amount of any insurance recoveries are not determinable at this time and as such, an insurance receivable has not been recorded as of the date of this filing. The Company’s property insurance has a total policy limit of $500 million with a $1 million retention for damages related to Utility-owned non-generating assets, including overhead transmission and distribution assets within 1,000 feet of such assets. The Utilities believe capital expenditures related to restoration that are not covered by insurance will be managed under their current regulatory mechanisms, the recovery of which would be subject to PUC approval.
ASB’s Lahaina branch, including most of its contents and automated teller machine, was destroyed in the fire. The Bank leased the property of its Lahaina location.
Third-party claims and other proceedings. Multiple civil and class action lawsuits related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires have been filed in the Maui and Oahu Circuit Courts against HEI, the Utilities, and other defendants, including the County of Maui, the State of Hawaii and related state entities, private landowners and developers, and telecommunications companies (collectively “tort-related legal claims”). Most of these lawsuits allege that the defendants were responsible for, and/or negligent in failing to prevent or respond to the wildfires that led to the property destruction and loss of life. Other claims include, among other things, personal injury, wrongful death, emotional distress and inverse condemnation. One lawsuit asserting similar theories and claims was filed by the County of Maui against HEI and the Utilities’Utilities. Additional lawsuits may be filed against the Company and ASB’s fee income.other defendants in the future. The plaintiffs seek to recover damages and other costs, including punitive damages. For a discussion of the Company’s assessment of potential exposure to claims, see Subsequent event - One ‘Ohana Initiative below.
On August 24, 2023, a putative securities class action captioned Bhangal v. Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc., et al., No.: 3:23-cv-04332-JSC was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The lawsuit alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder against HEI and certain of its current and former officers, and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against certain of HEI’s current and former officers. Plaintiff broadly alleges that HEI and certain of its current and former officers made materially false and misleading statements or omissions regarding HEI’s wildfire prevention and safety protocols and related matters. Plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages. On October 5, 2023, the court entered an order extending Defendants’ time to respond to the complaint until after a lead plaintiff has been appointed by the court in accordance with relevant procedures of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Defendants have not yet responded to the complaint. A hearing on competing motions for appointment of lead plaintiff is scheduled for November 30, 2023. The Company intends to vigorously defend against this action. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in the defense of the litigation or that insurance will be available or adequate to fund any potential settlement or judgment or the litigation costs of the action. The Company is unable to predict the outcome or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss at this time.
Also, on September 11, 2023, a putative shareholder derivative action captioned Rice v. Connors, et al., No. 1CCV-23-0001181 was filed in the Circuit Court of the First Circuit, State of Hawai‘i. This action is purportedly brought by a shareholder on behalf of nominal defendants HEI and Hawaiian Electric do not expect a material impactagainst certain current and former officers and directors of HEI and Hawaiian Electric. Plaintiff asserts Hawai‘i state law breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, corporate waste and unjust enrichment claims allegedly arising from the fires that occurred on the timing or patternMaui in August 2023 and certain of revenue recognition upon adoptionHEI’s prior public disclosures. Plaintiff seeks, on behalf of ASU No. 2014-09, but do expect to provide expanded disclosures around the amount, timing, natureHEI and uncertainty of our revenues from contracts with customers. The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2014-09 (and subsequently issued revenue-related ASUs)Hawaiian Electric, compensatory and punitive damages, restitution and equitable relief in the first quarter of 2018 using the modified retrospective approach.
Financial instrumentsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which, among other things:
Requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.
Requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes.
Requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables).
Eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost.
The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2016-01 in the first quarter of 2018 and expects changes to disclosures, but otherwise believesHEI’s corporate governance, policies and culture. On October 27, 2023, the impactplaintiff filed an amended complaint adding claims for aiding and abetting state law breach of adoption will not be material to the Company’sfiduciary duty, and Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated financial statements.
Cash Flows. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statementfor purported violations of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues - debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (including bank-owned life insurance policies), distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle.
The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2016-15 in the first quarter of 2018 using a retrospective transition method and believes the impact of adoption will not be material to the Company’s and Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated statements of cash flows.
Restricted cash.  In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash,” which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents.
The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2016-18 in the first quarter of 2018 using a retrospective transition method and believes the impact of adoption will not be material to the Company’s and Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated statements of cash flows.
Net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost,” which requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. It also requires the other components of net periodic pension cost (NPPC) and net periodic postretirement benefit cost (NPBC) as defined in paragraphs 715-30-35-4 and 715-60-35-9 to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. Additionally, only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization under GAAP, when applicable.
The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2017-07 in the first quarter of 2018 and hasHawai‘i’s Nonprofit Corporations Act §414D-302.

fees and costs in connection with this lawsuit, any monetary recovery in the derivative litigation should accrue to the Company. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome and is unable to make a meaningful estimate of the amount or range of loss, if any, that could result from any unfavorable outcome.
Legal costs in connection with the litigation and loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred and accrued $10.8 million ($6.3 million by the Utilities) of legal expenses to address these lawsuits and other legal matters related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires. The Company has $165 million of excess liability insurance for third party claims, including claims related to wildfires, with a possible retention of up to $1.5 million. Reimbursement of legal costs under the policy are recorded as a reduction of expense when probable and reasonably estimable.
Subsequent event - One ‘Ohana Initiative. On November 8, 2023, Hawaii Governor Josh Green announced the One ‘Ohana Initiative (the Initiative) as a collective path forward to recovery from the Maui windstorm and wildfires. The Initiative is a new humanitarian aid fund expected to exceed $150 million, with the objective to compensate, in an expedited manner, those who have lost loved ones and those who have suffered severe injuries in the Maui windstorm and wildfires. The Initiative provides an alternative to a lengthy and expensive legal process. Beneficiaries are anticipated to receive payments of more than $1 million each as early as the second quarter of 2024 after an administrator is selected and processes are established. In exchange for receiving such a payment, beneficiaries will be required to waive their ability to pursue legal claims for wrongful death and severe injuries.
Hawaiian Electric fully supports this humanitarian initiative and has pledged to contribute up to $75 million. The Governor announced that other parties, including the State of Hawaii, the County of Maui, and Kamehameha Schools have all agreed to contribute to the fund, and additional contributions from other parties are possible. Hawaiian Electric’s contribution to the Initiative will be less than half of the total, and Hawaiian Electric's insurance carriers have agreed to fund its share of the contributions to the fund. Hawaiian Electric’s contribution is reflective of its commitment to join with community partners to provide solutions to promote Maui’s recovery. Hawaiian Electric’s commitment to contribute to the Initiative is not an admission of guilt or reflection of fault or liability related to the wildfires.
In connection with its commitment to contribute to the Initiative, the Utilities accrued, as of September 30, 2023, $75 million, and concurrently, recorded an insurance reimbursement receivable of an equivalent amount as the recovery of the Utilities’ contribution to the Initiative under its excess liability insurance policy is deemed probable. The Initiative contemplates additional phases, including a process to potentially resolve remaining tort-related legal claims, as well as seeking legislation to reduce wildfire risk and provide financial support to help ensure a strong energy future for all of Hawaii. While the Utilities plan to participate in a process with the State and community partners to explore solutions to support Maui’s recovery and compensate victims for damages, the Utilities are unable to reasonably estimate any additional potential loss, or range of loss. If additional liabilities were to be incurred, the loss could be material to the Utilities’ results of operations, financial positions and cash flows. If any such losses were to be sufficiently high, the Utilities may not have liquidity or the ability to access liquidity at levels necessary to satisfy such losses.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires that lessees recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, for all leases (except short-term leases) at the commencement date. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election and recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, a lessee is required to recognize interest on the lease liability separately from amortization of the right-of-use assetunbilled revenues, net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income. For operating leases, a lessee is required to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term on a generally straight-line basis.Hawaiian Electric and subsidiaries’ Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and HEI and subsidiaries’ Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, respectively.
The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2016-02 in the first quarter of 2019 and has not yet determined the method or impact of adoption.
Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. ASU No. 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date (based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts) and enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU No. 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The other-than-temporary impairment model of accounting for credit losses on AFS debt securities will be replaced with an estimate of expected credit losses only when the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset. The length of time the fair value of an AFS debt security has been below the amortized cost will no longer impact the determination of whether a credit loss exists. The AFS debt security model will also require the use of an allowance to record the estimated losses (and subsequent recoveries). The accounting for the initial recognition of the estimated expected credit losses for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration would be recognized through an allowance for credit losses with an offset to the cost basis of the related financial asset at acquisition (i.e., there is no impact to net income at initial recognition).
The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2016-13 in the first quarter of 2020 and has not yet determined the impact of adoption.

Revenue taxes. The Utilities’ revenues include amounts for the recovery of various Hawaii state revenue taxes. Revenue taxes are generally recorded as an expense in the period the related revenues are recognized. However, the Utilities’ revenue tax payments to the taxing authorities in the period are based on the prior year’s billed revenues (in the case of public service company taxes and PUC fees) or on the current year’s cash collections from electric sales (in the case of franchise taxes). The Utilities included in the third quarters of 2017 and 2016 and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 approximately $54 million, $51 million, $150 million and $138 million, respectively, of revenue taxes in “revenues” and in “taxes, other than income taxes” expense, in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.
Unconsolidated variable interest entities.
HECO Capital Trust IIIPower purchase agreements.  HECO Capital Trust III (Trust III) was created and exists for the exclusive purposes of (i) issuing in March 2004 2,000,000 6.50% Cumulative Quarterly Income Preferred Securities, Series 2004 (2004 Trust Preferred Securities) ($50 million aggregate liquidation preference) to the public and trust common securities ($1.5 million aggregate liquidation preference) to Hawaiian Electric, (ii) investing the proceeds of these trust securities in 2004 Debentures issued by Hawaiian Electric in the principal amount of $31.5 million and issued by Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric each in the principal amount of $10 million, (iii) making distributions on these trust securities and (iv) engaging in only those other activities necessary or incidental thereto. The 2004 Trust Preferred Securities are mandatorily redeemable at the maturity of the underlying debt on March 18, 2034, which maturity may be extended to no later than March 18, 2053; and are currently redeemable at the issuer’s option without premium. The 2004 Debentures, together with the obligations of the Utilities under an expense agreement and Hawaiian Electric’s obligations under its trust guarantee and its guarantee of the obligations of Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric under their respective debentures, are the sole assets of Trust III. Taken together, Hawaiian Electric’s obligations under the Hawaiian Electric debentures, the Hawaiian Electric indenture, the subsidiary guarantees, the trust agreement, the expense agreement and trust guarantee provide, in the aggregate, a full, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payments of amounts due on the Trust Preferred Securities. Trust III has at all times been an unconsolidated subsidiary of Hawaiian Electric. Since Hawaiian Electric, as the holder of 100% of the trust common securities, does not absorb the majority of the variability of Trust III, Hawaiian Electric is not the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate Trust III in accordance with accounting rules on the consolidation of VIEs. Trust III’s balance sheets as  As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 each consisted of $51.5 million of 2004 Debentures; $50.0 million of 2004 Trust Preferred Securities; and $1.5 million of trust common securities. Trust III’s income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 consisted of $2.5 million of interest income received from the 2004 Debentures; $2.4 million of distributions to holders of the Trust Preferred Securities; and $75,000 of common dividends on the trust common securities to Hawaiian Electric. As long as the 2004 Trust Preferred Securities are outstanding, Hawaiian Electric is not entitled to receive any funds from Trust III other than pro-rata distributions, subject to certain subordination provisions, on the trust common securities. In the event of a default by Hawaiian Electric in the performance of its obligations under the 2004 Debentures or under its Guarantees, or in the event any of the Utilities elect to defer payment of interest on any of their respective 2004 Debentures, then Hawaiian Electric will be subject to a number of restrictions, including a prohibition on the payment of dividends on its common stock.
Power purchase agreements.  As of September 30, 2017,2023, the Utilities had five PPAsfour power purchase agreements (PPAs) for firm capacity and other PPAs with independent power producers (IPPs) and Schedule Q providers (e.g.(i.e., customers with cogeneration and/or power production facilities who buy power from or sell power to the Utilities), none of which isare currently required to be consolidated as VIEs.
Pursuant to the current accounting standards for VIEs, the Utilities are deemed to have a variable interest in Kalaeloa Partners, L.P. (Kalaeloa), AES Hawaii, Inc. (AES Hawaii) and HEPHamakua Energy by reason of the provisions of the PPAsPPA that the Utilities have with the threetwo IPPs. However, management has concluded that the Utilities are not the primary beneficiary of Kalaeloa AES Hawaii or HEPand Hamakua Energy because the Utilities do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the threetwo IPPs’ economic performance nor the obligation to absorb their expected losses, if any, that could potentially be significant to the IPPs. Thus, the Utilities have not consolidated Kalaeloa AES Hawaii or HEPand Hamakua Energy in its unauditedcondensed consolidated financial statements. However, Hamakua Energy is an indirect subsidiary of Pacific Current and is consolidated in HEI’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
For the other PPAs with IPPs, the Utilities have concluded that the consolidation of the IPPs was not required because either the Utilities do not have variable interests in the IPPs due to the absence of an obligation in the PPAs for the Utilities to absorb any variability of the IPPs, or the IPPs were eitherIPP was considered a “business” or “governmental organization,” and thus excluded from the scope of accounting standards for VIEs. Two IPPs of as-available energy declined to provide the information necessary for Utilities to determine the applicability of accounting standards for VIEs. If information is ultimately received from the IPPs, a possible

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued(Unaudited)


outcome of future analyses of such information is the consolidation of one or both of such IPPs in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The consolidation of any significant IPP could have a material effect on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including the recognition of a significant amount of assets and liabilities and, if such a consolidated IPP were operating at a loss and had insufficient equity, the potential recognition of such losses. If the Utilities determine they are required to consolidate the financial statements of such an IPP and the consolidation has a material effect, the Utilities would retrospectively apply accounting standards for VIEs.VIEs to the IPP.
Commitments and contingencies.
Contingencies. The Utilities are subject in the normal course of business to pendinglegal, regulatory and threatened legalenvironmental proceedings. ManagementExcluding the potential liabilities from the Maui windstorm and wildfires, management does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of these pending or threatened legal proceedings will be material to its financial position. However, the Utilities cannot rule out the possibility that such outcomes could have a material effect on the results of operations or liquidity for a particular reporting period in the future. The Utilities record loss contingencies when the outcome of such proceedings is probable and when the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. The Utilities also evaluate, on a continuous basis, whether developments in such proceedings could cause these assessments or estimates to change. Assessment regarding future events is required when evaluating whether a loss is probable or reasonably possible, and as to whether such loss or a range of such loss is estimable. Management is often unable to estimate a reasonably possible loss, or a range of loss, particularly in cases in which: (i) the damages sought are indeterminate or the basis for the damages claimed is not clear; (ii) proceedings are in early stages; (iii) discovery is not complete; (iv) the matters involve novel or unsettled legal theories; (v) significant facts are in dispute; (vi) a large number of parties are represented (including circumstances in which it is uncertain how liability, if any, would be shared among multiple defendants); (vii) a lower court or administrative agency’s decision or ruling has been appealed; and/or (vii) a wide range of potential outcomes exist. In such cases, there may be considerable uncertainty regarding the timing or ultimate resolution, including any possible loss, fine, penalty, or business impact.

Kalaeloa Partners, L.P.  In October  Under a 1988 PPA, as amended, Hawaiian Electric entered into a PPA with Kalaeloa, subsequently approved by the PUC, which provided that Hawaiian Electric would purchase 180 megawatts (MW) of firm capacity for a period of 25 years beginning in May 1991. In October 2004, Hawaiian Electric and Kalaeloa entered into amendments to the PPA, subsequently approved by the PUC, which together effectively increased the firm capacity from 180 MW to 208 MW. The energy payments that Hawaiian Electric makes to Kalaeloa include: (1) a fuel component, with a fuel price adjustment based on the cost of low sulfur fuel oil, (2) a fuel additives cost component and (3) a non-fuel component, with an adjustment based on changes in the Gross National Product Implicit Price Deflator. The capacity payments that Hawaiian Electric makes to Kalaeloa are fixed in accordance with the PPA. Kalaeloa also has a steam delivery cogeneration contract with another customer, the term of which coincides with the PPA. The facility has been certified by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission as a Qualifying Facility under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978.
Hawaiian Electric and Kalaeloa are in negotiations to address the PPA term that ended on May 23, 2016. The PPA automatically extends on a month-to-month basis as long as the parties are still negotiating in good faith, but would end 60 days after either party notifies the other in writing that negotiations have terminated. Hawaiian Electric and Kalaeloa have agreed that neither party will terminate the PPA prior to October 31, 2018.
AES Hawaii, Inc. Under a PPA entered into in March 1988, as amended (through Amendment No. 2) for a period of 30 years beginning September 1992, Hawaiian Electric agreedis committed to purchase 180208 MW of firm capacity from AES Hawaii.Kalaeloa. In August 2012, Hawaiian Electric filed an application with the PUC seeking an exemption from the PUC’s Competitive Bidding Framework to negotiate an amendment to the PPA to purchase 186 MW of firm capacity, and amend the energy pricing formula in the PPA. The PUC approved the exemption in April 2013, butOctober 2021, Hawaiian Electric and AES Hawaii were not able to reach an agreement onKalaeloa signed the amendment. In June 2015, AES Hawaii filed an arbitration demand regarding a dispute about whether Hawaiian Electric was obligated to buy up to 9 MW of additional capacity based on a 1992 letter. Hawaiian Electric responded to the arbitration demandAmended and in October 2015, AES HawaiiRestated Power Purchase Agreement for Firm Dispatchable Capacity and Hawaiian Electric entered into a Settlement Agreement to stay the arbitration proceeding. The Settlement Agreement included certain conditions precedent which, if satisfied, would have released the parties from the claims under the arbitration proceeding. Among the conditions precedent was the successful negotiationEnergy (Amended and PUC approval of an amendment to the existing PPA.
In November 2015, Hawaiian Electric entered into Amendment No. 3 for which PUC approval was requested and subsequently denied in January 2017. Approval of Amendment No. 3 would have satisfied the final condition for effectiveness

of the Settlement Agreement and resolved AES Hawaii's claims. Following the PUC's decision, the parties agreedRestated PPA) to extend the stayPPA for an additional term of 10 years. The Amended and Restated PPA was approved by the PUC on November 23, 2022. The new pricing provisions in the Amended and Restated PPA took effect on January 1, 2023.
Stage 1 Renewable PPAs. In February 2018, the Utilities issued their Stage 1 renewable request for proposals and have procured eight renewable PPAs with a total of 274.5 MW capacity. The total annual payments to be made by the Utilities under the eight renewable PPAs are estimated at $71.2 million. The Utilities have received PUC approvals to recover the total projected annual payments under the eight renewable PPAs through the purchased power adjustment clause (PPAC) to the extent such costs are not included in base rates. The Utilities have accounted for the battery portion of three PPAs that were placed in service, including the AES Waikoloa Solar project that began commercial operation on April 21, 2023, which has a capacity of 30 MW with 120 MWh batteries, as finance leases and recorded lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets of $124 million. The timing of the arbitration proceeding, while settlement discussions continue.Utilities’ recognition of the expense conforms to ratemaking treatment for the Utilities’ recovery of the cost of electricity and is included in purchased power for the interest and amortization of financing leases related to PPAs. Any material differences between expense recognition and timing of payments are deferred as a regulatory asset or liability in order to match what is being recovered for ratemaking purposes.
Hu Honua Bioenergy, LLC. LLC (Hu Honua).In May 2012, Hawaii Electric Light signed a PPA, which the PUC approved in December 2013, with Hu Honua Bioenergy, LLC (Hu Honua) for 21.5 MW of renewable, dispatchable firm capacity fueled by locally grown biomass from a facility on the island of Hawaii. PerUnder the terms of the PPA, the Hu Honua plant was scheduled to be in service in 2016. However, Hu Honua encountered construction and litigation delays, failed to meet its obligations underwhich resulted in the PPA and failed to provide adequate assurances that it could perform or hadtermination of the financial means to perform. Hawaii Electric Light terminatedoriginal PPA. Following the PPA on March 1, 2016. On November 30, 2016,termination, Hu Honua filed a civil complaintlawsuit in the United StatesU.S. District Court for the District of Hawaii. The parties reached a settlement that provided that they would execute an amended and restated PPA dated May 9, 2017, provided that the amended and restated PPA was still subject to PUC approval. On May 23, 2022, the PUC issued a decision and order denying the amended and restated PPA, based on, among other things, findings that: (1) the project will result in significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, (2) Hu Honua’s proposed carbon commitment to sequester more GHG emissions than produced by the project are speculative and unsupported, (3) the amended and restated PPA is likely to result in high costs to customers through its relatively high cost of electricity and through potential displacement of other, lower cost, renewable resources, and (4) based on the foregoing, approving the amended and restated PPA is not prudent or in the public interest. On June 2, 2022, Hawaii Electric Light and Hu Honua filed their separate motions for reconsideration, which were denied by the PUC on June 24, 2022. On June 29, 2022, Hu Honua filed its notice of appeal to the Hawaii Supreme Court of the PUC’s May 23, 2022 decision and order denying the amended and restated PPA. On March 13, 2023, the Hawaii Supreme Court affirmed the PUC’s decision denying the amended and restated PPA between Hu Honua and Hawaii Electric Light and entered its judgment on appeal on April 12, 2023. On June 7, 2023, Hu Honua filed a status report with the U.S. District Court for the District of Hawaii, stating, among other things, that included claims purportedly arising outbecause settlement of the termination of Hu Honua’s PPA. On May 26, 2017, Hawaii Electric Light and Hu Honua entered into a settlement agreement that will settle all claims related to the termination of the original PPA. The settlement agreementunderlying federal lawsuit was contingent on the PUC’stimely, non-appealable, final approval of anthe amended and restated PPA by the PUC, that the Hawaii Supreme Court’s opinion made fulfillment of the condition impossible, and therefore the settlement agreement between the Hawaiian Electric defendants (HEI, Hawaiian Electric, and Hawaii Electric LightLight) and Hu Honua dated May 5, 2017. is null and void and of no further effect. Furthermore, Hu Honua indicated that it intends to reassert its federal antitrust and other claims against the Hawaiian Electric defendants. Hu Honua also stated that to take into account the numerous relevant events which have occurred since its filing of its second amended complaint on

January 29, 2018, Hu Honua intends to move for leave to file an amended and supplemental complaint. Hu Honua has yet to file a motion for leave.
Molokai New Energy Partners (MNEP). In July 2017,2018, the PUC approved Maui Electric’s PPA with MNEP to purchase solar energy from a photovoltaic (PV) plus battery storage project. The 4.88 MW PV and 3 MW Battery Energy Storage System project was to deliver no more than 2.64 MW at any time to the Molokai system. On March 25, 2020, MNEP filed a complaint in the United Stated District Court for the District of Hawaii against Maui Electric claiming breach of contract. On June 3, 2020, Maui Electric provided a Notice of Default and Termination of the PPA to MNEP terminating the PPA with an effective date of July 10, 2020. Thereafter, MNEP filed an amended complaint to include claims relating to the termination and Hawaiian Electric filed its answer to the amended complaint on September 11, 2020, disputing the facts presented by MNEP and restated PPA. On August 25, 2017,all claims within the PUC’s approval was appealed by a third party. The appealoriginal and amended complaint. Currently, the discovery phase is still pending. Hu Honua is expected to be on-line by the end of 2018.ongoing.
Utility projects.  Many public utility projects require PUC approval and various permits from other governmental agencies. Difficulties in obtaining, or the inability to obtain, the necessary approvals or permits or community support can result in significantly increased project costs or even cancellation of projects. In the event a project does not proceed, or if it becomes probable the PUC will disallow cost recovery for all or part of a project, or if PUC imposedPUC-imposed caps on project costs are expected to be exceeded, project costs may need to be written off in amounts that could result in significant reductions in Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated net income.
Enterprise Resource Planning/Enterprise Asset Management (ERP/EAM) ImplementationWaena Switchyard/Synchronous Condenser Project. On August 11, 2016,In October 2020, to support efforts to increase renewable energy generation and reduce fossil fuel consumption by deactivating current generating units, Maui Electric filed a PUC application to construct a switchyard, which includes the extension of two 69 kV transmission lines and the relocation of another 69 kV transmission line; and the conversion of two generating units to synchronous condensers at Kahului Power Plant in central Maui. In November 2021, the PUC approved the Utilities’Maui Electric’s request to commence the ERP/EAM Implementation Project, subject to certain conditions, including a $77.6 million cap on cost recovery as well as a requirement that the Utilities pass onto customers a minimum of $244 million in savings associated with the system over its 12-year service life. The decision and order (D&O) approved the deferral of certain project costs and allowed the accrual of allowance forcommit funds used during construction (AFUDC), but limited the AFUDC rate to 1.75%. Pursuant to the D&O and subsequent orders, in September 2017, the Utilities filed a bottom-up, low-level analysis of the project’s benefits and performance metrics and tracking mechanism for passing the project’s benefits on to customers. Monthly reports on the status and costs of the project continue to be filed.
The ERP/EAM Implementation Project is on schedule. The project is expected to go live by October 1, 2018. As of September 30, 2017, the Project incurred costs of $23.6 million of which $4.6 million were charged to other operation and maintenance (O&M) expense, $1.4 million relate to capital costs and $17.6 million are deferred costs.
Schofield Generating Station Project. In August 2012, the PUC approved a waiver from the competitive bidding framework to allow Hawaiian Electric to negotiate with the U.S. Army for the construction of a 50 MW utility owned and operated firm, renewable and dispatchable generation facilityestimated at Schofield Barracks. In September 2015, the PUC approved Hawaiian Electric’s application to expend $167 million for the project. In approving the project, the PUC placed a cost cap of $167$38.8 million for the project, stated 90% of the cap is allowed for cost recovery through cost recovery mechanisms other than base rates, and stated the $167 million cap will be adjusted downward due to any reduction in the cost of the engine contract due to a reduction in the foreign exchange rate. Hawaiian Electric was required to take all necessary steps to lock in the lowest possible exchange rate. On January 5, 2016, Hawaiian Electric executed window forward contracts, which lowered the cost of the engine contract by $9.7 million, resulting in a revised project cost cap of $157.3 million. Hawaiian Electric has received all of the major permitsrecover capital expenditures for the project including a 35 year site lease fromunder Exceptional Project Recovery Mechanism (EPRM) not to exceed $38.8 million, which shall be further reduced to reflect the U.S. Army. Constructiontotal project cost exclusive of overhead costs not directly attributable to the facility began in October 2016, and the facility is expected to beproject. The Waena Switchyard was placed in service in the second quarter of 2018. A request to recover the costson October 25, 2023. The conversion of the projecttwo generating units will be performed after the retirement of Kahului Power Plant Units 3 and related operations and maintenance expense through the newly-established Major Project Interim Recovery (MPIR) adjustment mechanism4, which is pending PUC approval. (See “Decoupling” section below for MPIR guidelines and capital cost recovery discussion.) Project costs incurred as of September 30, 2017 amounted to $105.7 million.
West Loch PV Project. In July 2016, Hawaiian Electric announced plans to build, own and operate a utility-owned, grid-tied 20-MW (ac) solar facility in conjunction with the Department of the Navy at a Navy/Air Force joint base. In June 2017, the PUC approved the expenditure of fundstargeted for the project, including Hawaiian Electric’s proposed project cost capend of $67 million and a performance guarantee to provide energy at 9.56 cents/KWH or less. Project costs incurred as of September 30, 2017 amounted to $0.7 million.2027.
In approving the project, the PUC agreedrecognized that the project is eligible for recovery of costs offset by related net benefitswill facilitate the ability to accommodate increased renewable energy, as contemplated under the newly-established MPIR adjustment mechanism. (See “Decoupling” section below for MPIR guidelines and capital

cost recovery discussion.) Hawaiian Electric provided supplemental materials in August 2017, as requested by the PUC, to support meeting the MPIR guidelines, accompanied by system performance guarantee and cost savings sharing mechanisms. 
Hawaiian Telcom. The Utilities each have separate agreements for the joint ownership and maintenance of utility poles with Hawaiian Telcom, Inc. (Hawaiian Telcom), the respective county or counties in which each utility operates and other third parties, such as the State of Hawaii. The agreements set forth various circumstances requiring pole removal/installation/replacement and the sharing of costs among the joint pole owners. The agreements allow for the cost of work done by one joint pole owner to be shared by the other joint pole owners based on the apportionment of costs in the agreements. The Utilities have maintained, replaced and installed the majority of the jointly-owned poles in each of the respective service territories, and have billed the other joint pole owners for their respective share of the costs. The counties and the State have been reimbursing the Utilities for their share of the costs. However, Hawaiian Telcom has been delinquent in reimbursing the Utilities for its share of the costs.
Hawaiian Electric has initiated a dispute resolution process to collect the unpaid amounts from Hawaiian Telcom as specified by the joint pole agreement. This dispute resolution process is stayed pending settlement negotiations. For Hawaii Electric Light, the agreement does not specify an alternative dispute resolution process, and thus a complaint for payment was filed with the Circuit Court in June 2016. This complaint is stayed pending settlement negotiations. Maui Electric has not yet commenced any legal action to recover the delinquent amounts. The Utilities and Hawaiian Telcom have entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding to endeavor to negotiate agreements, subject to PUC approval, for purchase by the Utilities of Hawaiian Telcom’s interest in all the joint poles, with payment of the purchase price of such interest in the poles to be offset in part by the receivables owed by Hawaiian Telcom to the Utilities.EPRM guidelines. As of September 30, 2017, total receivables under the joint pole agreement, including interest, from Hawaiian Telcom are $22.22023, $24.7 million ($14.9 million at Hawaiian Electric, $6.0 million at Hawaii Electric Light, and $1.3 million at Maui Electric). Management expects to prevail on these claims but has reservedbeen incurred for the accrued interest of $4.9 million on the receivables.project.
Environmental regulation.  The Utilities are subject to environmental laws and regulations that regulate the operation of existing facilities, the construction and operation of new facilities and the proper cleanup and disposal of hazardous waste and toxic substances.
Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric, like other utilities, periodically encounter petroleum or other chemical releases into the environment associated with current or previous operations. The Utilities report and take action on these releases when and as required by applicable law and regulations. The Utilities believe the costs of responding to such releases identified to date will not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
Former Molokai Electric Company generation site.  In 1989, Maui Electric acquired by merger Molokai Electric Company. Molokai Electric Company had sold its former generation site (Site) in 1983, but continued to operate at the Site under a lease until 1985.1985 and left the property in 1987. The federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has since identified environmental impacts in the subsurface soil at the Site. Although Maui Electric never operated at the Site or owned the Site property, after discussionsIn cooperation with the EPA and theState of Hawaii Department of Health (DOH), Maui Electric agreed to undertake additional investigations at the Site and an adjacent parcel that Molokai Electric Company had used for equipment storage (the Adjacent Parcel) to determine the extent of environmental contamination. A 2011 assessment by a Maui Electric contractor of the Adjacent Parcel identified environmental impacts, including elevated polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the subsurface soils. In cooperation with the DOH and EPA, Maui Electric is further investigatinginvestigated the Site and the Adjacent Parceladjacent parcel to determine the extent of impacts of PCBs,polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), residual fuel oils and other subsurface contaminants. Maui Electric has a reserve balance of $3.1$2.6 million as of September 30, 2017,2023, representing the probable and reasonably estimatedestimable undiscounted cost to complete the additional investigation and estimated cleanup costs atfor remediation of the Site and the Adjacent Parcel;adjacent parcel based on presently available information; however, final costs of remediation will depend on the resultscleanup approach implemented.
Additionally, on November 24, 2021, the current landowners of the Site, Misaki’s, Inc., filed a lawsuit against Hawaiian Electric (as alleged successor in interest to Molokai Electric, the prior owner of the Site) in the Circuit Court of the Second Circuit of the State of Hawaii (removed to the U.S. District Court for the District of Hawaii). The complaint, which was subsequently amended to include Maui Electric, alleges that Hawaiian Electric is responsible for remediation of the Site based on the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), and the Hawaii Environmental Response Law under Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 128D, as well as being liable on contractual claims

related to a short leaseback period during the transition of ownership from Molokai Electric. On August 24, 2023, a settlement was reached between the parties.
Pearl Harbor sediment study. In July 2014, the U.S. Navy notified Hawaiian Electric of the Navy’s determination that Hawaiian Electric is a Potentially Responsible Party under CERCLA responsible for the costs of investigation and cleanup of PCB contamination in sediment in the area offshore of the Waiau Power Plant as part of the Pearl Harbor Superfund Site. The Navy has also requested that Hawaiian Electric reimburse the costs incurredwas also required by the Navy to investigate the area. The Navy has completed a remedial investigation and a feasibility study (FS) for the remediation of contaminated sediment at several locations in Pearl Harbor and issued its Final FS Report on June 29, 2015. On February 2, 2016, the Navy released the Proposed Plan for Pearl Harbor Sediment Remediation and Hawaiian Electric submitted comments. The extent of the contamination, the appropriate remedial measures to address it and Hawaiian Electric’s potential responsibility for any associated costs have not been determined.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued(Unaudited)


On March 23, 2015, Hawaiian Electric received a letter from the EPA requesting that Hawaiian Electric submit a work plan to assess potential sources and extent of PCB contamination onshore at the Waiau Power Plant. Hawaiian Electric submitted a sampling and analysis (SAP) work plan to the EPA and the DOH. Onshore sampling at the Waiau Power Plant was completed in two phases in December 2015 and June 2016. The extent of the onshore contamination, the appropriate remedial measures to address it and any associated costs have not yet been determined.
As of September 30, 2017,2023, the reserve account balance recorded by Hawaiian Electric to address the PCB contamination was $4.9$9.7 million. The reserve balance represents the probable and reasonably estimable undiscounted cost to completefor the onshore and offshore investigationsinvestigation and the remediation of PCB contamination in the offshore sediment.remediation. The final remediation costs will depend on the resultsactual onshore and offshore cleanup costs.
Kapolei pipeline. James Campbell Company (JCC) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Aina Nui Corporation discovered petroleum contamination in ground water during construction of a project in Kapolei in late 2022 and incurred approximately $0.8 million in remediation costs. JCC made a joint demand for these costs in June 2023 to the two companies, including Hawaiian Electric, that have pipelines in the area of the onshore investigation and assessmentcontamination. This demand was updated on September 1, 2023 to $1.2 million to incorporate additional costs. Based on the nature of potential source control requirements, as well as the further investigationcontamination, it is not clear whether it is consistent with what was in the Utilities’ pipelines or is wholly or partially the responsibility of contaminated sediment offshore from the Waiau Power Plant.
Asset retirement obligations.  The Utilities recorded Asset Retirement Obligations (AROs) related to removing retired generating units at Hawaiian Electric’s Honolulu and Waiau power plants and removing certain types of transformers. The transformer removal projectsother pipeline owner. At this time, the parties are on-going. The retired generating unit removal projects are expected to be completed by the end of 2017,engaging in settlement discussions and the related AROs have been reassessed. Hawaiian Electric has determined thatUtilities are unable to determine the AROs forultimate outcome or the retired generating units should be minimal, and thus $24.4 millionamount of the remaining AROs related to those projects were reversed in the third quarter of 2017 to reflect the revision in estimated cash flows (with no impact on the Utilities’ net income). The ARO balances as of September 30, 2017 and 2016, amounted to $0.7 million and $26.2 million, respectively. any possible loss.
Regulatory proceedings.
Decoupling.Decoupling is a regulatory model that is intended to provide the Utilities with financial stability and facilitate meeting the State of Hawaii’s goals to transition to a clean energy economy and achieve an aggressive renewable portfolio standard. The decoupling model implemented in HawaiiDecoupling delinks the utility’s revenues from the utility’s sales, removing the disincentive to promote energy efficiency and includesaccept more renewable energy. Decoupling continues under the PBR Framework.
Performance-based regulation framework. On December 23, 2020, the PUC issued a decision and order (PBR D&O) establishing the PBR Framework to govern the Utilities. The PBR Framework incorporates an annual rate adjustments. Therevenue adjustment (ARA) and a suite of new regulatory mechanisms in addition to previously established regulatory mechanisms. Under the PBR Framework, the decoupling mechanism has three components:(i.e., the Revenue Balancing Account (RBA)) established by the previous regulatory framework will continue. The existing cost recovery mechanisms will continue as currently implemented (e.g., the Energy Cost Recovery Clause, PPAC, Demand Side Management surcharge, Renewable Energy Infrastructure Program, Demand Response Adjustment Clause, Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) tracking mechanisms). In addition to annual revenues provided by the ARA, the Utilities may seek relief for extraordinary projects or programs through the Exceptional Project Recovery Mechanism (EPRM) (formerly known as the Major Project Interim Recovery adjustment mechanism) and earn financial rewards for exemplary performance as provided through a portfolio of Performance Incentive Mechanisms (PIMs) and Shared Savings Mechanisms (SSMs). The PBR Framework incorporates a variety of additional performance mechanisms, including Scorecards, Reported Metrics, and an expedited Pilot Process. The PBR Framework also contains a number of safeguards, including a symmetric Earnings Sharing Mechanism (ESM) which protects the Utilities and customers from excessive earnings or losses, as measured by the Utilities’ achieved rate-making ROACE and a Re-Opener mechanism, under which the PUC will open an examination, at its discretion, to determine if adjustments or modifications to specific PBR mechanisms are appropriate. The PBR Framework became fully effective on June 1, 2021.
On June 17, 2022, the PUC issued a decision and order (June 2022 D&O) establishing additional PIMs under the PBR Framework for the Utilities. The June 2022 D&O approved two new PIMs, a new SSM, and extended the timeframe for an existing PIM. Specifically, the PUC approved (1) a sales decoupling component via a revenue balancing account (RBA),new (penalty-only) generation-caused interruption reliability PIM, (2) a revenue escalation component vianew (penalty/reward) interconnection requirements study (IRS) PIM, (3) a new (reward-only) Collective Shared Savings Mechanism (CSSM), and (4) a modification and extension of the existing Interim Grid Services PIM (reward-only). On November 23, 2022, the PUC approved the Utilities’ proposed tariffs to implement the aforementioned PIMs with an effective date of January 1, 2023.
In addition, the June 2022 D&O instructed the Utilities to prepare and submit: a detailed fossil fuel retirement report (FF Retirement Report) outlining necessary steps to safely and reliably retire certain existing fossil fuel power plants during the first multi-year rate period (MRP); and a functional integration plan (FIP) for distributed energy resources (DER) to increase transparency into the Utilities’ plans and progress for utilizing cost-effective grid services from DERs and ensure that the necessary functionalities and requisite technologies are in place to do so. The PUC also instructed the PBR Working Group to
19


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued (Unaudited)
continue its ongoing collaborative efforts to consider other potential new incentive mechanisms and to address other issues raised during the proceeding. On March 30, 2023, the PUC held a PBR Working Group coordination meeting to initiate subgroups on the Long-Term Grid Services PIM, modification/evaluation of existing PIMs, and comprehensive PBR Framework review priority topics.
In accordance with the June 2022 D&O, the Utilities filed their FIP on September 30, 2022, Long-Term Grid Services PIM proposal on July 3, 2023, and FF Retirement Report on October 13, 2023.
On October 16, 2023, the Utilities filed a request for limited suspension of the Transmission and Distribution (T&D) System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) PIM, the T&D System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI) PIM, and the target heat rate provision of Maui Electric Maui Division’s Energy Cost Recovery Clause (ECRC) tariff starting from August 8, 2023. The Utilities requested PUC approval of the suspension request by December 28, 2023.
On November 3, 2023, the Utilities, Ulupono Initiative LLC, and the County of Hawaii filed a stipulation on proposed modifications to the RPS-A, Call Center, AMI Utilization, and IRS PIM. The proposed PIM tariff modifications are intended to become effective on January 1, 2024, to the extent they can be approved by December 31, 2023. A decision on the stipulation is pending PUC approval.
Revenue adjustment mechanism. Prior to the implementation of the PBR Framework, the revenue adjustment mechanism (RAM) and (3) an earnings sharing mechanism, which would provide forwas a reduction of revenues between rate cases in the event the utility exceeds the return on average common equity (ROACE) allowed in its most recent rate case. Decoupling provides for more timely cost recovery and earning on investments.
For the RAM years 2014 - 2016, Hawaiian Electric was allowed to record RAM revenue beginning on January 1 and to bill such amounts from June 1major component of the applicable year through May 31 of the following year. Subsequent to 2016, Hawaiian Electric reverted to thepreviously established regulatory framework. The RAM provisions initially approved in March 2011—i.e., RAM is both accrued and billed from June 1 of each year through May 31 of the following year.
2015 decoupling order. On March 31, 2015, the PUC issued an Order (the 2015 Decoupling Order) that modified the RAM portion of the decoupling mechanism to be capped atwas based on the lesser of the RAM revenue adjustment as then determined (based onof: (a) an inflationary adjustment for certain O&M expenses and return on investment for certain rate base changes) and a RAM revenue adjustment calculated based on thechanges, or (b) cumulative annual compounded increase in Gross Domestic Product Price Index applied to annualized target revenues (the RAM Cap). Under the PBR Framework, the ARA mechanism replaced the RAM, and became effective on June 1, 2021. RAM revenue adjustments approved by the PUC in 2020 will continue to be included in the RBA provision’s target revenue and RBA rate adjustment unless modified with PUC approval.
Annual revenue adjustment mechanism. The 2015 Decoupling Order providedPBR Framework established a specific basis for calculating the target revenues until the nextfive-year MRP during which there will be no general rate case, at which time the targetcases. Target revenues will reset uponbe adjusted according to an index-driven ARA based on (i) an inflation factor, (ii) a predetermined X-factor to encompass productivity, which is set at zero, (iii) a Z-factor to account for exceptional circumstances not in the issuanceUtilities’ control and (iv) a customer dividend consisting of an interim or final D&Oa negative adjustment of 0.22% of adjusted revenue requirements compounded annually and a flow through of the “pre-PBR” savings commitment from the management audit recommendations developed in a prior docket at a rate case.of $6.6 million per year from 2021 to 2025. The triennial rate case cycle required underimplementation of the decoupling mechanism continuesARA occurred on June 1, 2021.
Pursuant to serve asPUC orders, the maximum period betweenUtilities deferred certain COVID-19 related costs in regulatory asset accounts through December 31, 2021. In June 2022, the filing of general rate cases.
The RAM Cap impacted the Utilities'Utilities submitted an application to seek recovery of capital investments as follows:
Hawaiian Electric's RAM revenues werethe COVID-19 related deferred costs, not to exceed the amount of $27.8 million, through the Z-factor over three years. Annual requests will be limited to actual costs incurred. The Utilities also proposed to accelerate flow-through of the RAM CapEnterprise Resource Planning system benefits savings currently tracked in 2015, 2016regulatory liability accounts to Hawaii Electric Light and 2017.
Maui Electric's RAM revenues were limitedElectric customers as part of the customer dividend in the ARA if the PUC approves the application. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities have recorded $8.8 million in regulatory assets for deferral of COVID-19 related costs. The updated amounts have been reflected in the Utilities’ COVID-19 Quarterly Reports to the RAM Cap in 2015 and 2016; however, the 2017 RAM revenues werePUC filed on October 31, 2023.
Earnings sharing mechanism. The PBR Framework established a symmetrical ESM for achieved rate-making ROACE outside of a 300 basis points dead band above or below the RAM Cap.current authorized ROACE of 9.5% for each of the Utilities. There is a 50/50 sharing between customers and Utilities for the achieved rate-making ROACE falling within 150 basis points outside of the dead band in either direction, and a 90/10 sharing for any further difference. A reopening or review of the PBR terms may be triggered if the Utilities credit rating outlook indicates a potential credit downgrade below investment grade status, or if its achieved rate-making ROACE enters the outer most tier of the ESM.
Hawaii Electric Light’s RAM revenues were below the RAM Cap in 2015, 2016 and 2017.
2017 decoupling order. On April 27, 2017,August 31, 2023, the PUC issued an Order (the 2017 Decoupling Order) that requiresorder temporarily suspending the establishmentESM until further notice. The intent of specific performance incentive mechanismsthe order is to address the unintended consequence of customers potentially bearing the costs associated with the Maui windstorm and wildfires through the operation of the ESM without prior PUC review.
Exceptional project recovery mechanism. Prior to the implementation of the PBR Framework, the PUC established the Major Project Interim Recovery (MPIR) adjustment mechanism and MPIR Guidelines. The MPIR mechanism provides guidelinesthe opportunity to recover revenues for interim recoverynet costs of revenues to support majorapproved eligible projects placed in service between general rate cases. In establishing the PBR Framework, the MPIR Guidelines were terminated and replaced with the EPRM Guidelines. Although the MPIR Guidelines were terminated and replaced by the EPRM Guidelines, the MPIR mechanism will continue within the PBR Framework to provide recovery of project costs previously approved for recovery under the MPIR. The established EPRM Guidelines permit the Utilities to include the full amount of approved costs in the EPRM for recovery in the first year the

project goes into service, pro-rated for the portion of the year the project is in service. Deferred and O&M expense projects are also eligible for EPRM recovery under the EPRM Guidelines. EPRM recoverable costs will be limited to the lesser of actual incurred project costs or PUC‑approved amounts, net of savings.
As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities annualized MPIR and EPRM revenue amounts totaled $31.1 million, including revenue taxes, for the Schofield Generating Station ($16.5 million), West Loch PV project ($3.3 million), Grid Modernization Strategy (GMS) Phase 1 project ($11.2 million for all three utilities) and Waiawa UFLS project ($0.1 million) that included the 2023 return on project amount (based on approved amounts) in rate base, depreciation and incremental O&M expenses. The PUC approved the Utilities’ recovery of the annualized 2023 MPIR amounts for the Schofield Generating Station, West Loch PV, GMS Phase 1, and Waiawa UFLS projects effective June 1, 2023 through the RBA rate adjustment.
As of September 30, 2023, the PUC approved two EPRM applications for projects totaling $41 million to the extent that the project costs are not included in rates. Currently, the Utilities are seeking EPRM recovery for five projects with total project costs up to $488 million, subject to PUC approval.
Pilot process. As part of the PBR Framework, the PUC approved a Pilot Process to foster innovation by establishing an expedited implementation process for pilots that tests new technologies, programs, business models, and other arrangements. Under the Pilot Process, the Utilities submit specific pilot proposals (Pilot Notices) that are within the scope of the approved Workplan to the PUC for their expedited review. The PUC will strive to issue an order addressing a proposed pilot within 45 days of the filing date of a Pilot Notice. If the PUC does not take affirmative action on a Pilot Notice by the end of the 45-day period, the Pilot Notice shall be considered approved as submitted. The PUC may modify the pilot as originally proposed, and the Utilities shall have 15 days to notify the PUC whether the Utilities accept the modification, propose further modification, or withdraw the Pilot Notice. The PUC may also, where necessary, suspend the Pilot Notice for further investigation.
The approved Pilot Process includes a cost recovery process that generally allows the Utilities to defer and recover total annual expenditures of approved pilot projects net of revenues, subject to an annual cap of $10 million, over 12 months beginning June 1 of the year following pilot implementation through the RBA rate adjustment, although the PUC may determine on a case-by-case basis that a particular project’s deferred costs should be amortized over a period greater than 12 months.
On February 28, 2023, the Utilities filed their annual Pilot Update report covering pilot projects that were active during 2022, including reporting on pilot projects that were initiated prior to the commencement of the Pilot Process. The Pilot Update reported on approximately $0.4 million of 2022 recorded pilot project costs including revenue taxes for the Utilities. The 2022 recorded pilot project costs were included in the Utilities’ proposed initial tariffsadjustments to implement conventional stand-alone performancetarget revenue in the 2023 spring revenue report filed on March 28, 2023.
On March 22, 2023, the PUC issued an order temporarily suspending the filing of Pilot Notices, pending a stakeholder meeting which was convened on June 15, 2023 to discuss potential improvements to the Pilot Process.
On July 28, 2023, the PUC issued an order providing additional guidance on the Pilot Process, specifying expectations for future Pilot Notices submitted pursuant to the Pilot Process. The order lifted the temporary suspension on submitting Pilot Notices and the Utilities may file Pilot Notices consistent with the approved Workplan.
Performance incentive mechanisms namely for:. The PUC has established the following PIMs and SSMs: (1) Service Quality performance incentives, (2) Phase 1 Request for proposal (RFP) PIM for procurement of low-cost renewable energy, (3) Phase 2 RFP PIMs for generation and generation plus storage project, and grid services and standalone storage, (4) PIMs established in the PBR D&O and (5) PIMs and a SSM established in the June 2022 D&O.
Service Quality performance incentives (ongoing). Service Quality performance incentives are measured on a calendar-year basis. The PIM tariff requires the performance targets, deadbands and the amount of maximum financial incentives used to determine the PIM financial incentive levels for each of the PIMs to remain constant in interim periods, unless otherwise amended by order of the PUC.
Service Reliability Performance measured by Transmission and Distribution-caused System Average Interruption Duration and Frequency Indexes (penalties only). Target performance is based on each utility’s historical 10-year average performance with a deadband of one

standard deviation. The maximum penalty for each performance index is 20 basis points applied to the common equity share of each respective utility’s approved rate base (or maximum penalties of approximately $6$6.8 million penalty- for both indices in total for the three utilities). For the 2022 evaluation period, the Utilities incurred $0.1 million in penalties.
Call Center Performance measured by the percentage of calls answered within 30 seconds. Target performance is based on the annual average performance for each utility for the most recent 8eight quarters with a deadband of 3%

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued (Unaudited)
above and below the target. The maximum penalty or incentivereward is 8 basis points applied to the common equity share of each respective utility’s approved rate base (or maximum penalties or rewards of approximately $1.2$1.4 million penalty or incentive- in total for the three utilities).
The 2017 Decoupling Order also established guidelines for MPIR. Projects eligible for recoveryPhase 1 RFP PIM. Procurement of low-cost variable renewable resources through the RFP process in 2018 is measured by comparison of the procurement price to target prices. The first portion of the incentive was earned upon PUC approval of the PPAs. Based on the seven PPAs approved in 2019, the Utilities recognized $1.7 million in 2019 with the remaining award to be recognized in the year following the in-service date of the projects prorated in proportion to the actual amount of energy utilized, which is estimated to occur from 2023 to 2025. In September 2023, the Utilities accrued $0.1 million (for Hawaiian Electric) in incentives related to one PPA. The net reward was reflected in the 2023 fall revenue report filing.
Phase 2 RFP PIMs. The PUC order issued on October 9, 2019 establishes pricing thresholds, timelines to complete contracting, and other performance criteria for the performance incentive eligibility. The PIMs provide incentives only without penalties. On July 9, 2020, the Utilities filed two Grid Services Purchase Agreements (GSPA) for the Grid Service RFP that potentially qualify for a demand response PIM; however, details of the incentive metrics will be determined by the PUC. On September 15, 2020, the Utilities filed one PPA that qualified for a PIM incentive and on February 16, 2021, the Utilities filed one additional PPA that qualified for a declining PIM incentive. The PUC approved two PPAs in September 2021 and November 2021 and two GSPAs on December 31, 2020. Based on the two approved PPAs, the Utilities recognized $0.1 million in rewards in 2021. In December 2022 and March 2023, these two PPAs were terminated or declared null and void.
The PUC previously established the following two PIMs in its PBR D&O, which were approved in an order issued on March 23, 2021 and became effective on June 1, 2021. In its June 2022 D&O, the PUC modified and extended the Interim Grid Services PIM.
Renewable portfolio standard (RPS) - A PIM that provides a financial reward for accelerating the achievement of RPS goals. The Utilities may earn a reward for the amount of system generation above the interpolated statutory RPS goal at $20/MWh in 2021 and 2022, $15/MWh in 2023, and $10/MWh for the remainder of the MRP. Penalties are already prescribed in the RPS as $20/MWh for failing to meet RPS targets in 2030, 2040 and 2045. The evaluation period commenced on January 1, 2021.
Interim Grid Services - A PIM that provides financial rewards on a $/kW basis for the acquisition of eligible grid services. The eligibility period for this PIM initially commenced on January 1, 2021 and was scheduled to end on December 31, 2022. However, the June 2022 D&O extended the eligibility period for this PIM through December 31, 2023. The June 2022 D&O also increased the incentive rate for the acquisition of load reduction grid services. During the PIM performance period, newly acquired committed capacity in the Oahu Scheduled Dispatch Program (SDP), the Oahu Fast DR program (up to the 7 MW cap), and the Maui SDP program shall qualify for the incentive. The Utilities can earn a maximum reward of $1.5 million from 2021 through 2023. In 2022, the Utilities earned $0.04 million in rewards.
The PUC also previously established the following three PIMs in its PBR D&O, which were approved by the PUC on May 17, 2021 and became effective on June 1, 2021.
Interconnection Approval PIM that provides financial rewards and penalties for interconnection times for DER systems <100 kW in size. The Utilities can earn a total annual maximum reward of $3.0 million or a total annual maximum penalty of $0.9 million. In 2022, the Utilities earned $3.0 million in rewards.
Low-to-Moderate Income (LMI) Energy Efficiency PIM that provides financial rewards for collaboration between the Utilities and the third-party Public Benefits Fee Administrator to deliver energy savings for low- and moderate-income customers. The Utilities can earn a total annual maximum reward of $2.0 million. The PIM will initially have a duration of three years and be subject to an annual review. The evaluation period is based on Hawaii Energy’s program year with the initial evaluation year being the period of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022. The Utilities earned $0.5 million in rewards for the program period ending June 30, 2022.
Advanced Metering Infrastructure Utilization PIM that provides financial rewards for leveraging grid modernization investments and engaging customers beyond what is already planned in the Phase 1 Grid Modernization program. The Utilities can earn a total annual maximum reward of $2.0 million. The PIM will initially have a duration of three years after which it will be re-evaluated. The evaluation period commenced on January 1, 2021.
The PUC established the following PIMs and SSM in its June 2022 D&O, which became effective on January 1, 2023.

Generation-caused System Average Interruption Duration and Frequency Indexes PIMs to incentivize achievement of generation-based reliability targets, measured by Generation System Average Interruption Duration and Frequency Indexes (penalties only). Target performance is based on each utility’s historical 10-year average performance with a deadband of one standard deviation. The maximum penalty for each performance index is 3 basis points applied to the common equity share of each respective utility’s approved rate base (or maximum penalties of approximately $1 million - for both indices in total for the three utilities).
An IRS PIM to incentivize the timely completion of the IRS process for large-scale renewable energy projects (rewards and penalties) measured by the number of months between final model checkout and delivery of IRS results to the developer. Target performance is ten months with an asymmetrical deadband of two-months for penalties and no deadband for rewards. The maximum penalty and reward will depend on the specifics of the upcoming procurement.
A CSSM to incentivize cost control over the Utilities’ fuel, purchased power, and EPRM/MPIR adjustment mechanismcosts (collectively, non-ARA costs). This is a reward only incentive where the Utilities retain 20% share of savings when non-ARA costs in a performance year are major projects (i.e., projects with capital expenditureslower than target year non-ARA costs, which are adjusted for changes in fuel prices, inflation, and system generation from a base year (calendar year 2021). The CSSM does not have a potential penalty and does not have a cap for maximum reward.
For the 2022 evaluation period, the Utilities earned $3.4 million ($2.5 million for Hawaiian Electric, $0.4 million for Hawaii Electric Light and $0.5 million for Maui Electric) in rewards net of customer contributionspenalties. The net rewards related to 2022 were reflected in excessthe 2023 PIMs annual report and 2023 spring revenue report filings.

In the 2017 Decoupling Order,February 2019, the PUC indicated that in pending and subsequent rate cases,approved a methodology for passing the PUC intendsfuture cost saving benefits of the new ERP/EAM system to require all fuel expenses and purchased energy expenses be recovered through an appropriately modified energy cost adjustment mechanism rather than through base rates, and will consider adopting processes to periodically reset fuel efficiency measures embedded in the energy cost adjustment mechanism to account for changes in the generating system.
Annual decoupling filings. On March 31, 2017,customers developed by the Utilities submittedin collaboration with the Consumer Advocate. The Utilities filed a benefits clarification document on June 10, 2019, reflecting $150 million in future net other operation and maintenance (O&M) expense reductions and cost avoidance, and $96 million in capital cost reductions and tax savings over the 12-year service life. To the extent the reduction in O&M expense relates to amounts reflected in electric rates, the PUC, their annual decoupling filings. Maui Electric amended its annual decoupling filing on May 22, 2017, to update and revise certain cost information. On May 31, 2017,Utilities would reduce future rates for such amounts. In October 2019, the PUC approved the annual decoupling filings for tariffed rates that will be effective from June 1, 2017 through May 31, 2018.

Utilities and the Consumer Advocate’s Stipulated Performance Metrics and Tracking Mechanism. As part of the settlement agreement approved in the Hawaiian Electric consolidated 2014 test year abbreviated and 20172020 test year rate cases. On December 16, 2016,case, the regulatory liability for Hawaiian Electric will be amortized over five years, beginning in November 2020, and the O&M benefits for Hawaiian Electric was considered flowed through to customers. In June 2022, to mitigate the impact of the Utilities’ request for recovery of the COVID-19 related costs on customers, the Utilities also proposed to accelerate flow-through of the ERP benefits savings currently tracked in regulatory liability accounts to Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric customers as part of the customer dividend in the ARA, pending the PUC’s approval. See “Regulatory assets for COVID-19 related costs” section below.
As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities’ regulatory liability was $11.9 million ($3.0 million for Hawaiian Electric, $3.5 million for Hawaii Electric Light and $5.4 million for Maui Electric) for the O&M expense savings that are being amortized or to be included in future rates. At the PUC’s direction, the Utilities have been filing Annual Enterprise System Benefits (AESB) report on the achieved benefits savings. The most recent AESB report was filed on February 14, 2023 for the period January 1 through December 31, 2022.
Regulatory assets for COVID-19 related costs. On May 4, 2020, the PUC issued an order, authorizing all utilities, including the Utilities, to establish regulatory assets to record costs resulting from the suspension of disconnections of service during the pendency of the Governor’s Emergency Proclamation and until otherwise ordered by the PUC. In future proceedings, the PUC will consider the reasonableness of the costs, the appropriate period of recovery, any amount of carrying costs thereon, and any savings directly attributable to suspension of disconnects, and other related matters. As part of the order, the PUC prohibits the Utilities from charging late payment fees on past due payments. As the moratorium on customer disconnections ended on May 31, 2021, the Utilities have resumed charging late payment fees in July 2021. Pursuant to PUC orders, the deferral of COVID-19 related costs by the Utilities ended on December 31, 2020. On October 1, 2021, the PUC approved the Utilities’ request to extend the deferral period to December 31, 2021. In December 2021, to keep customers connected and provide some relief to customers experiencing financial difficulty during the pandemic, the Utilities committed to issuing $2 million in bill credits to qualified customers. The Utilities will not seek recovery for the issued bill credits, resulting in a reduction to the cumulative deferred costs. On June 9, 2022, the Utilities filed an application with the PUC, forrequesting recovery of a general rate increaseportion of $106.4the COVID-19 related deferral costs, net of cost savings realized, not to exceed the amount of $27.8 million over revenues at current effective rates (for a 6.9% increase in revenues), based on a 2017 test year and an 8.28% rate of return (which incorporates a ROACE of 10.6% and a capital structure that includes a 57.4% common equity capitalization) on a $2.0 billion rate base. The requested increase is primarilythree years, through the Z-factor, from June 2023 through May 2026. Annual requests will be limited to pay for operatingactual costs and for system upgrades to increase reliability, improve customer service and integrate more renewable energy. In its application, Hawaiian Electric is also proposing implementation of performance based regulation (PBR) mechanisms related to its performance in the areas of customer service, reliability and communication relatingincurred. This adjustment to the private rooftop solar interconnection process. Hawaiian Electric proposed an expansion of the range of fuel usage efficiencies under which fuel costs would be fully passed throughARA is subject to customers, and an additional trigger that would allow a re-establishment of fuel usage efficiency targets under certain conditions.
PUC approval. On December 23, 2016,January 25, 2023, the PUC issued an order consolidatingto modify the Hawaiian Electric filingsprocedural schedule to allow more time for more discovery and consideration of the application. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities have recorded $8.8 million in regulatory assets for deferral of COVID-19 related costs.
Regulatory assets for suspension of disconnections related costs. Based on the circumstances related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, on August 31, 2023 and subsequently on October 13, 2023, the PUC issued orders directing all regulated utilities located on, or providing utility service on Maui, including the Utilities, among other things, (i) to suspend disconnections of services and associated disconnection fees beginning from August 8, 2023, through the end of the emergency relief period established by the Governor’s Emergency Proclamations related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, which currently continues through January 5, 2024 (Suspension Period); (ii) to suspend any and all rules and provisions of individual utility tariffs that prevent or condition re-connection of disconnected customers during the Suspension Period; (iii) not to charge customers interest on past due payments or impose any late payment fees through the Suspension Period; (iv) to establish regulatory assets to record costs directly related to the suspension of disconnections, and to record receipt of governmental aid and donation-based aid, loans or grants, and/or all other assistance measures, and any cost savings realized; and (v) to file a notice with the PUC regarding any upcoming application or other request pursuant to HRS Sections 269-16.3, -17, -17.5, -18, -19 or -19.5 and/or regarding any significant financial change to the Maui utility, at least 60 days prior to filing such application or other request with the PUC. The orders also discourage the filing of emergency or general rate increases in response to the emergency situation. In future proceedings, the PUC will assess the utility’s request for recovery of these regulatory assets including whether it is reasonable and necessary, the appropriate period of recovery for the 2014 test year abbreviated rate caseapproved amount of regulatory assets, any amount of carrying costs thereon, any savings directly attributable to suspension of disconnects, and the 2017 test year rate case. The order also found and concluded that Hawaiian Electric's abbreviated 2014 rate case filing did not comply with: (1) the Mandatory Triennial Rate Case Cycle requirement in the decoupling order that Hawaiian Electric file an application for a general rate case every three years and (2) the requirement that Hawaiian Electric file its 2014 calendar test year rate case application by June 27, 2014. The order then stated that: “[T]he determination and disposition of any rates, accounts, adjustment mechanisms, and practices that would have been subject to review in the context of a 2014 test year rate case proceeding are subject to appropriate adjustment based on evidence and findings in the consolidated rate case proceeding.”

matters. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities have recorded $0.1 million in regulatory assets for the incremental costs incurred due to the suspension of disconnections.
Army privatization. On January 4, 2017,October 30, 2020, the PUC approved Hawaiian Electric’s 50-year contract with the U.S. Army to own, operate and maintain the electric distribution system serving the U.S. Army’s 12 installations on Oahu, including Schofield Barracks, Wheeler Army Airfield, Tripler Army Medical Center, Fort Shafter, and Army housing areas. On March 1, 2022, Hawaiian Electric filedacquired the Army’s existing distribution system for a motion for clarification and/or partial reconsiderationpurchase price of $14.5 million, and will pay the Army in the form of a monthly credit against the monthly utility services charge over the 50-year term of the PUC’s order. On March 14, 2017,contract. The acquisition of additional assets contemplated in the PUC issuedcontract, with an order to address Hawaiian Electric’s motion, stating that the PUCestimated value of $4 million, is not initiating an investigation/enforcement proceeding against planned for 2024.
Hawaiian Electric regardingtook ownership and all responsibilities for operation and maintenance of the system on March 1, 2022 for a 50-year term after a one-year transition period. Under the contract, Hawaiian Electric will make initial capital upgrades over the first six years of the contract and replace aging infrastructure over the 50-year term. In addition to its compliance withregular monthly electricity bill, the decoupling order,Army will pay Hawaiian Electric a monthly utility services charge to cover operations and maintenance expenses and provide recovery for capital upgrades, capital replacements, and the transfer and consolidation of Hawaiian Electric’s 2014 abbreviated rate case with the 2017 rate case is intended to ensure that ratepayers receive the attendant benefits of Hawaiian Electric’s decision to voluntarily forgo a general rate increase in base rates for its mandated 2014 test year. As directed, on April 12, 2017, Hawaiian Electric filed a supplement to its 2017 rate case filing, addressing the items raised in the order and explaining why Hawaiian Electric’s forgoing of a general rate increase in the 2014 test year should not result in any further adjustments to Hawaiian Electric’s revenue requirement in the 2017 test year.
On April 26, 2017, the PUC issued an Order regarding the supplement to Hawaiian Electric’s 2017 rate case filing, requesting updated pension and OPEB regulatory asset and liability schedules, by May 12, 2017, to reflect the use of the 2014 net periodic pension cost (NPPC) and net periodic benefits costs (NPBC) for the pension and OPEB tracking mechanisms and with amortization of such regulatory assets and liabilities beginning May 1, 2015. On May 12, 2017, Hawaiian Electric filed these schedules and on May 31, 2017, supplemented its May 12, 2017 filing to show the cumulative impact of the 2015-2017 change in employee benefits transferred to capital as a result of the change in the amortization of the pension and OPEB regulatory assets and liabilities.
On June 28, 2017, the PUC issued an order designating the filing date of Hawaiian Electric’s completed rate case application to be May 31, 2017 (the date that supplemental pension-related information described above was filed) rather than December 16, 2016, (the date of the filing of the rate case application). On July 28, 2017, the PUC issued a procedural schedule that includes Hawaiian Electric and the Consumer Advocate submitting statements of probable entitlement on November 17, 2017, an interim D&O tentatively scheduled for December 15, 2017, and an evidentiary hearing in early March 2018.
Maui Electric consolidated 2015 test year abbreviated and 2018 test year rate cases. On June 9, 2017, Maui Electric filed a notice of intent with the PUC to file a general rate case application by December 30, 2017 for a 2018 test year. On August 4, 2017, the PUC issued an order consolidating the Maui Electric filings for the 2015 test year abbreviated rate case and the 2018 test year rate case. Similar to the PUC’s conclusion regarding Hawaiian Electric’s 2014 abbreviated rate case filing, the order also found and concluded that Maui Electric’s 2015 test year abbreviated rate case filing did not comply with the Mandatory Triennial Rate Case Cycle requirement in the decoupling order that Maui Electric file an application for a general rate case every three years. The order further stated that the PUC is not initiating an investigation/enforcement proceeding against Maui Electric regarding its compliance with the decoupling order, and the transfer and consolidation of Maui Electric’s 2015 abbreviated rate case with the 2018 rate case is intended to ensure that ratepayers receive the attendant benefits of Maui Electric’s decision to voluntarily forgo a general rate increase in base rates for its mandated 2015 test year. The order stated that: “[T]he determination and disposition of any rates, accounts, adjustment mechanisms, and practices that would have been subject to review in the context of a 2015 test year rate case proceeding are subject to appropriate adjustmentexisting distribution system based on evidence and findings in the consolidateda rate case proceeding.”
On October 12, 2017, Maui Electric filed its 2018 test year rate case application withof return determined by the PUC for a general rate increase of $30.1 million over revenues at current effective rates (for a 9.3% increase in revenues) based on a 2018 test year and an 8.05% rate of return (which incorporates a ROACE of 10.6% and a capital structure that includes a 56.9% common equity capitalization) on a $473 million rate base.regulated utility investments, as well as depreciation expense. The requested rate increase is primarilyPUC requires Hawaiian Electric to pay for operating costs, including system upgrades to increase reliability, integrate more renewable energy, and improve customer service. Further, Maui Electric requested that if a decision in a docket (filed in December 2016) seeking approval of new depreciation rates is rendered prior to new rates being established in the Maui Electric 2018 test year rate case, the new electric rates be basedfile regular periodic reports on the depreciation rates as a result of that docket. If the proposed depreciation rates are used to calculate Maui Electric’s 2018 test year revenue requirement, the requested revenue increase would be $46.6 million (14.3%) over revenues at current effective rates. Maui Electric filed an exhibit with information responding to the PUC’s consolidation order. Similar to Hawaiian Electric’s response, Maui Electric explained why its forgoing of a general rate increaseactivities and investments in the 2015 test year should not result in any further adjustments to Maui Electric’s revenue requirement in the 2018 test year.
Hawaii Electric Light 2016 test year rate case. On September 19, 2016, Hawaii Electric Light filed an application with the PUC for a general rate increase of $19.3 million over revenues at current effective rates (for a 6.5% increase in revenues), based on an 8.44% rate of return (which incorporates a ROACE of 10.60%). The last rate increase in base rates for Hawaii Electric Light was in January 2011. The requested increase is to cover higher operating costs (including expanded vegetation management focusing on albizia tree removal and increased pension costs) and system upgrades to increase reliability, improve customer service and integrate more renewable energy. In its application, Hawaii Electric Light is also proposing implementation of PBR mechanisms similar to those proposed by Hawaiian Electric. In addition, Hawaii Electric Light proposed an equal sharing of fuel expenses outside the fuel usage efficiency target range.

On July 11, 2017, Hawaii Electric Light and the Consumer Advocate filed a Stipulated Settlement Letter, which documented agreements reached with the Consumer Advocate on allfulfillment of the issues incontract and will review the proceeding, except for whethermajor projects planned on behalf of the stipulated ROACE should be reduced from 9.75% (by up to 25 basis points) based solely on the impact of decoupling, considering current circumstances and relevant precedents. On August 21, 2017, the PUC issued an order granting an interim rate increase of $9.9 million, based on the Stipulated Settlement and an ROACE of 9.5% and subject to refund, with interest, if it exceeds amounts allowed in a final order. The interim rate increase was implemented on August 31, 2017.Army.

Credit quality.  ASB performs an internal loan review and grading on an ongoing basis. The review provides management with periodic information as to the quality of the loan portfolio and effectiveness of its lending policies and procedures. The objectives of the loan review and grading procedures are to identify, in a timely manner, existing or emerging credit trends so that appropriate steps can be initiated to manage risk and avoid or minimize future losses. Loans subject to grading include commercial, commercial real estate and commercial construction loans.
Each commercial and commercial real estate loan is assigned an Asset Quality Rating (AQR) reflecting the likelihood of repayment or orderly liquidation of that loan transaction pursuant to regulatory credit classifications:  Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful, and Loss. The AQR is a function of the probability of default model rating, the loss given default, and possible non-model factors which impact the ultimate collectability of the loan such as character of the business owner/guarantor, interim period performance, litigation, tax liens and major changes in business and economic conditions. Pass exposures generally are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the asset or underlying collateral. Special Mention loans have potential weaknesses that, if left uncorrected, could jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Substandard loans have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the BankASB may sustain some loss. An asset classified Doubtful has the weaknesses of those classified Substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. An asset classified Loss is considered uncollectible and has such little value that its continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted.

Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty. The allowance for credit losses incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and is recorded on each asset upon origination. The starting point for the estimate of the allowance for credit losses is historical loan information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. ASB uses a probability of default/loss given default model to determine the allowance for credit losses. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made at the time of the modification.
Because the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded upon modification.
Modifications may include interest rate reductions, interest only payments for an extended period of time, protracted terms such as amortization and maturity beyond the customary length of time found in the normal marketplace, and other actions intended to minimize economic loss and to provide alternatives to foreclosure or repossession of collateral.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, no loans received a material modification based on borrower financial difficulty.
Troubled debt restructurings. Prior to January 1, 2023, a loan modification was deemed to be a TDR when the borrower was determined to be experiencing financial difficulties and ASB granted a concession it would not otherwise consider. With the adoption of ASU No. 2022-02, accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors is eliminated. Loan refinancing and restructuring guidance is applied to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. ASB will continue TDR disclosures for years prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2022-02.

*Since loan was classified as impaired.
Troubled debt restructurings.  A loan modification is deemed to be a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) when ASB grants a concession it would not otherwise considerThere were it not for the borrower’s financial difficulty. When a borrower experiencing financial difficulty fails to make a required payment on a loan or is in imminent default, ASB takes a number of steps to improve the collectibility of the loan and maximize the likelihood of full repayment. At times, ASB may modify or restructure a loan to help a distressed borrower improve its financial position to eventually be able to fully repay the loan, provided the borrower has demonstrated both the willingness and the ability to fulfill the modified terms. TDRno loans are considered an alternative to foreclosure or liquidation with the goal of minimizing losses to ASB and maximizing recovery.
ASB may consider various types of concessions in granting a TDR including maturity date extensions, extended amortization of principal, temporary deferral of principal payments and temporary interest rate reductions. ASB rarely grants principal forgiveness in its TDR modifications. Residential loan modifications generally involve interest rate reduction,

extending the amortization period, or capitalizing certain delinquent amounts owed not to exceed the original loan balance. Land loans at origination are typically structured as a three-year term, interest-only monthly payment with a balloon payment due at maturity. Land loan TDR modifications typically involve extending the maturity date up to five years and converting the payments from interest-only to principal and interest monthly, at the same or higher interest rate. Commercial loan modifications generally involve extensions of maturity dates, extending the amortization period and temporary deferral or reduction of principal payments. ASB generally does not reduce the interest rate on commercial loan TDR modifications. Occasionally, additional collateral and/or guaranties are obtained.
All TDR loans are classified as impaired and are segregated and reviewed separately when assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on the appropriate method of measuring impairment:  (1) present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective original contractual rate, (2) fair value of collateral less cost to sell or (3) observable market price. The financial impact of the calculated impairment amount is an increase to the allowance associated with the modified loan. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible (confirmed losses), these amounts are charged off against the allowance for loan losses.
Loan modifications that occurred during the third quarters and first nine months of 2017 and 2016 and the impact on the allowance for loan losses were as follows:

ASB capitalizes mortgage servicing rightsMSRs acquired through either the purchase or upon the sale of mortgage loans with servicing rights retained. On a monthly basis, ASB compares the net carrying value of the mortgage servicing rightsMSRs to its fair value to determine if there are any changes to the valuation allowance and/or other-than-temporary impairment for the mortgage servicing rights. ASB’s MSRs are stratified based on predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans including loan type such as fixed-rate 15 and 30 year mortgages and note rate in bands of 50 to 100 basis points. For each stratum, fair value is calculated by discounting expected net income streams using discount rates that reflect industry pricing for similar assets. Changes in mortgage interest rates impact the value of ASB’s mortgage servicing rights. Rising interest rates typically result in slower prepayment speeds in the loans being serviced for others, which increases the value of mortgage servicing rights, whereas declining interest rates typically result in faster prepayment speeds which decrease the value of mortgage servicing rights and increase the amortization of the mortgage servicing rights. Expected net income streams are estimated based on industry assumptions regarding prepayment expectations and income and expenses associated with servicing residential mortgage loans for others.MSRs.
ASB uses a present value cash flow model using techniques described above to estimate the fair value of MSRs. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for each stratum when the carrying amount exceeds fair value, with any associated provision recorded as a component of loan servicing fees included in “Revenues - bank” in the condensed consolidated statements of income. A direct write-down is recorded when the recoverability of the valuation allowance is deemed to be unrecoverable.

The effect of a variation in certain assumptions on fair value is calculated without changing any other assumptions. This analysis typically cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of a change in one key assumption to the changes in the fair value of MSRs typically is not linear.

Other borrowings.  As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, ASB had $200.0 million and $414.0 million of FHLB advances outstanding, respectively, and borrowings with the Federal Reserve Bank of $550.0 million and nil, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, ASB was in compliance with all FHLB Advances, Pledge and Security Agreement requirements and all requirements to borrow at the Federal Reserve Discount Window Primary Credit Facility under 12 CFR 201.4(a) guidelines.

The securities underlying the agreements to repurchase are book-entry securities and were delivered by appropriate entry into the counterparties’ accounts or into segregated tri-party custodial accounts at the FHLB. The securities underlying the agreements to repurchase continue to be reflected in ASB’s asset accounts.
Derivative financial instruments. ASB enters into interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) with borrowers, and forward commitments to sell loans or to-be-announced mortgage-backed securities to investors to hedge against the inherent interest rate and pricing risks associated with selling loans.
ASB enters into IRLCs for residential mortgage loans, which commit ASB to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specific interest rate and within a specified period of time. IRLCs that relate to the origination of mortgage loans that will be held for sale are considered derivative financial instruments under applicable accounting guidance. Outstanding IRLCs expose ASB to the risk that the price of the mortgage loans underlying the commitments may decline due to increases in mortgage interest rates from inception of the rate lock to the funding of the loan. The IRLCs are free-standing derivatives which are carried at fair value with changes recorded in mortgage banking income.
ASB enters into forward commitments to hedge the interest rate risk for rate locked mortgage applications in process and closed mortgage loans held for sale. These commitments are primarily forward sales of to-be-announced mortgage backed securities. Generally, when mortgage loans are closed, the forward commitment is liquidated and replaced with a mandatory delivery forward sale of the mortgage to a secondary market investor. In some cases, a best-efforts forward sale agreement is utilized as the forward commitment. These commitments are free-standing derivatives which are carried at fair value with changes recorded in mortgage banking income.
Changes in the fair value of IRLCs and forward commitments subsequent to inception are based on changes in the fair value of the underlying loan resulting from the fulfillment of the commitment and changes in the probability that the loan will fund within the terms of the commitment, which is affected primarily by changes in interest rates and the passage of time.

By August 23, 2023, HEI drew its remaining and Hawaiian Electric drew its full committed capacity on their respective existing revolving credit facilities, totaling $175 million and $200 million, respectively. The draws were made to provide access to liquidity and support the Company’s restoration efforts on Maui.

Long-term incentive plan payable in stock.  The 2017-20192021-23, 2022-24 and 2023-25 long-term incentive planplans (LTIP) providesprovide for performance awards under the EIP of shares of HEI common stock based on the satisfaction of performance goals, including a market condition goal. The number of shares of HEI common stock that may be awarded is fixed on the date the grants are made, subject to the achievement of specified performance levels and calculated dividend equivalents. The potential payout varies from 0% to 200% of the number of target shares, depending on the achievement of the goals. The market condition goal is based on HEI’s total shareholder return (TSR) compared to the EdisonPeer Group (Edison Electric Institute Index (EEI Index) for the 2021-23 and 2022-24 performance periods, and compared to the Company's compensation peer group consisting of companies in the EEI Index and approved by the Company's Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee for the 2023-25 performance period), in each case over the relevant three-year period. The other performance condition goals relate to EPS growth, cumulative EPS, return on average common equity (ROACE) and, renewable portfolio standards, carbon emissions reduction, Hawaiian Electric’s net income growth, ASB’s efficiency ratio.

The Company’s ETRsand the Utilities’ effective tax rates (combined federal and state income tax rates) for the third quarters of 2017 and 2016 were 36% and 29%, respectively, and for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016 were 35% and 32%, respectively. The ETR was higher for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to2023 were 20% and 22%, respectively. These rates differed from the same periods in 2016combined statutory rates, due primarily to 2016 tax benefits recognized on previously nondeductible merger- and spin-off-related expenses and higher tax benefits recognized fornontaxable bank-owned life insurance, partially offset by the Domestic Production Activities Deduction (DPAD) in 2016Utilities’ lower amortization of excess deferred income taxes related to the Utilities’ generation activities whenprovision in the Utilities were in a consolidated net operating loss position.2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that lowered the federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%.
        Hawaiian Electric’s ETRs forIn August 2020, the third quarters ofInternal Revenue Service notified the Company that its 2017 and 2016 were 36% and 37%, respectively, and for2018 income tax returns would be examined. The Company was previously audited every year through 2011, at which time the first nine monthsIRS changed their internal policies regarding audit frequency. The audit is still in progress. The Company has not been notified of 2017 and 2016 were 36% and 37%, respectively. any material audit adjustments to date.
The lower ETRInflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) was due in part to the tax benefits recognized for the DPAD as a result of moving out of a federal net operating loss position in 2017.
Recent tax developments. The extension of bonus depreciationsigned by President Biden on August 16, 2022. Key provisions under the “Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) ActIRA include a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT) imposed on certain large corporations and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases after December 31, 2022. Based on current interpretation of 2015”the law and current guidance available we do not believe HEI will be impacted by the CAMT or stock repurchase excise tax provisions.
The IRA also creates new tax credits and enhances others to stimulate investment in renewable energy sources. Certain provisions of the IRA became effective beginning tax year 2023. The Company continues to be the most significant recentmonitor guidance and assess related tax change. The PATH Act provides 50% bonus depreciation through 2017, phases down the percentage to 40% in 2018 and 30% in 2019 and then terminates bonus depreciation thereafter. Tax depreciation is expected to increase by approximately $120 million in 2017 due to bonus depreciation, which has the effect of increasing accumulated deferred tax liabilities. However, the rate of growth of accumulated deferred tax liabilities is decreasing over time as book depreciation “catches up” with the tax depreciation taken in the past.

Note 13 ·Fair value measurements
Fair value estimates are estimates of the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid upon the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value estimates are generally determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are based on market data obtained from independent sources. However, in certain cases, the Company and the Utilities use their own assumptions based on the best information available in the circumstances. These valuations are estimates at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information, information about the financial instrument and judgments regarding future expected loss experience, economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result if the Company or the Utilities were to sell its entire holdings of a particular financial instrument at one time. Because no active trading market exists for a portion of the Company’s and the Utilities’ financial instruments, fair value estimates cannot be determined with precision. Changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the estimates. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses could have a significant effect on fair value estimates but have not been considered in making such estimates.
The Company and the Utilities group their financial assets measured at fair value in three levels outlined as follows:

53


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued(Unaudited)


Level 1:Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and is used to measure fair value whenever available.
Level 2:Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3:Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
Classification in the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability. For instruments classified in Level 1 and 2 where inputs are primarily based upon observable market data, there is less judgment applied in arriving at the fair value. For instruments classified in Level 3, management judgment is more significant due to the lack of observable market data.
Fair value is also used on a nonrecurring basis to evaluate certain assets for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Examples of nonrecurring uses of fair value include mortgage servicing rights accounted for by the amortization method, loan impairments for certain loans and goodwill.
Fair value measurement and disclosure valuation methodology. The following are descriptions of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and for estimating fair value for financial instruments not carried at fair value:
Short-term borrowings—other than bank.  The carrying amount of short-term borrowings approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Investment securities. The fair value of ASB’s investment securities is determined quarterly through pricing obtained from independent third-party pricing services or from brokers not affiliated with the trade. Non-binding broker quotes are infrequent and generally occur for new securities that are settled close to the month-end pricing date. The third-party pricing vendors ASB uses for pricing its securities are reputable firms that provide pricing services on a global basis and have processes in place to ensure quality and control. The third-party pricing services use a variety of methods to determine the fair value of securities that fall under Level 2 of the ASB’s fair value measurement hierarchy. Among the considerations are quoted prices for similar securities in an active market, yield spreads for similar trades, adjustments for liquidity, size, collateral characteristics, historic and generic prepayment speeds, and other observable market factors.
To enhance the robustness of the pricing process, ASB will on a quarterly basis compare its standard third-party vendor’s price with that of another third-party vendor. If the prices are within an acceptable tolerance range, the price of the standard vendor will be accepted. If the variance is beyond the tolerance range, an evaluation will be conducted by ASB and a challenge to the price may be made. Fair value in such cases will be based on the value that best reflects the data and observable characteristics of the security. In all cases, the fair value used will have been independently determined by a third-party pricing vendor or non-affiliated broker.
The fair value of the mortgage revenue bondbonds is estimated using a discounted cash flow model to calculate the present value of future principal and interest payments and, therefore is classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Loans held for sale. Residential and commercial loans are carried at the lower of cost or market and are valued using market observable pricing inputs, which are derived from third party loan sales and, securitizations and, therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Commercial loans are valued at quoted market prices determined in the active market in which the loans are traded.
Loans held for investment. Fair value of loans held for investment is derived using a discounted cash flow approach which includes an evaluation of the underlying loan characteristics. The valuation model uses loan characteristics which includes product type, maturity dates and the underlying interest rate of the portfolio. This information is input into the valuation models along with various forecast valuation assumptions including prepayment forecasts, to determine the discount rate. These assumptions are derived from internal and third party sources. NotingSince the valuation is derived from model-based techniques, ASB includes loans held for investment within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

ImpairedCollateral dependent loans. At the timeCollateral dependent loans have been adjusted to fair value. When a loan is considered impaired, it is valued atidentified as collateral dependent, the lower of cost or fair value. Fair value is determined primarily byCompany measures the impairment using an income, cost or market approach and is normally provided through appraisals. Impaired loans carried atthe current fair value generally receive specific allocations withinof the allowance forcollateral, less selling costs. Depending on the characteristics of a loan, losses. For collateral-dependent loans,the fair value of collateral is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. Thesegenerally estimated by obtaining external appraisals, may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales andbut in some cases, the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments typically result in a Level 3 classificationvalue of the inputs for determining faircollateral may be estimated as having little or no value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Generally, impaired loans are evaluated quarterly for additionalIf it is determined that the value of the collateral dependent loan is less than its recorded investment, the Company recognizes this impairment and adjusted accordingly.adjusts the carrying value of the loan to fair value through the allowance for credit losses.
Real estate acquired in settlement of loans. Foreclosed assets are carriedinitially measured at fair value (less estimated costs to sell) and subsequently measured at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less selling costs. Fair values are generally based upon appraisals or independent market prices that are periodically updated subsequent to classification as real estate owned. Such adjustments typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. ASB estimates the fair value of collateral-dependent loans and real estate owned using the sales comparison approach.
Mortgage servicing rights. Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)MSRs are capitalized at fair value based on market data at the time of sale and accounted for in subsequent periods at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Mortgage servicing rightsMSRs are evaluated for impairment at each reporting date. ASB's MSRs are stratified based on predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans including loan type and note rate. For each stratum, fair value is calculated by discounting expected net income streams using discount rates that reflect industry pricing for similar assets. Expected net income streams are estimated based on industry assumptions regarding prepayment expectations and income and expenses associated with servicing residential mortgage loans for others. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for each stratum when the carrying amount exceeds fair value, with any associated provision recorded as a component of loan servicing fees included in "Revenues“Revenues - bank"bank” in the consolidated statements of

income. A direct write-down is recorded when the recoverability of the valuation allowance is deemed to be unrecoverable. ASB compares the fair value of MSRs to an estimated value calculated by an independent third-party. The third-party relies on both published and unpublished sources of market related assumptions and theirits own experience and expertise to arrive at a value. ASB uses the third-party value only to assess the reasonableness of its own estimate. ASB includes MSRs within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Time deposits. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit was estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for depositsFHLB advances of similar remaining maturities. Deposit liabilities are classified in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Other borrowings. For fixed-rate advances and repurchase agreements, fair value is estimated using quantitative discounted cash flow models that require the use of interest rate inputs that are currently offered for advances and repurchase agreements of similar remaining maturities. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including broker market transactions and third party pricing services.
Long-term debt—other than bank.  Fair value of fixed-rate long-term debt of HEI and the Utilitiesdebt—other than bank was obtained from third-party financial services providers based on the current rates offered for debt of the same or similar remaining maturities and from discounting the future cash flows using the current rates offered for debt of the same or similar risks, terms, and remaining maturities. The carrying amount of floating rate long-term debt—other than bank approximated fair value because of the short-term interest reset periods. Long-term debt—other than bank is classified in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs). The estimated fair value of commitments to originate residential mortgage loans for sale is based on quoted prices for similar loans in active markets. IRLCs are classified as Level 2 measurements.
Forward sales commitments. To be announced (TBA) mortgage-backed securities forward commitments are classified as Level 1, and consist of publicly-traded debt securities for which identical fair values can be obtained through quoted market prices in active exchange markets. The fair values of ASB’s best efforts and mandatory delivery loan sale commitments are determined using quoted prices in the market placemarketplace that are observable and are classified as Level 2 measurements.

The fair values of the Utilities’ window forward contracts was obtained from a third-party financial services providerCompany's interest rate swaps are based on the effective exchangeestimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate offered forpricing models and interest rate related observable inputs.

The following table presents the carrying or notional amount, fair value and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments. For stock in Federal Home Loan Bank, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because it can only be redeemed at par. For bank-owned life insurance, the carrying amount is the cash surrender value of the insurance policies, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value. For financial liabilities such as noninterest-bearing demand, interest-bearing demand, and savings and money market deposits, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value as

ASB holds one mortgageMortgage revenue bondbonds are issued by the Department of Budget and Finance of the State of Hawaii. The Company estimates the fair value by using a discounted cash flow model to calculate the present value of estimated future principal and interest payments. The unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the weighted average discount rate. As of September 30, 2017,2023, the weighted average discount rate was 2.826%5.65%, which was derived by incorporating a credit spread over the one month LIBOR rate.London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Significant increases (decreases) in the weighted average discount rate could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

12 · Termination of proposed merger and other matters
On December 3, 2014, HEI, NextEra Energy, Inc. (NEE) and two subsidiaries of NEE entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), under which Hawaiian Electric was to become a subsidiary of NEE. The Merger Agreement contemplated that, prior to the Merger, HEI would distribute to its shareholders all of the common stock of ASB Hawaii, Inc. (ASB Hawaii), the parent company of ASB (such distribution referred to as the Spin-Off).
The closing of the Merger was subject to various conditions, including receipt of regulatory approval from the PUC. In July 2016: (1) the PUC dismissed NEE and Hawaiian Electric’s application requesting approval of the proposed Merger, (2) NEE terminated the Merger Agreement and (3) pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, NEE paid HEI a $90 million termination fee and $5 million for the reimbursement of expenses associated with the transaction. In 2016, the Company recognized $60 million of net income ($2 million of net loss in each of the first and second quarters and $64 million of net income in the third quarter), comprised of the termination fee ($55 million), reimbursements of expenses from NEE and insurance ($3 million), and additional tax benefits on the previously non-tax-deductible merger- and Spin-Off-related expenses incurred through June 30, 2016 ($8 million), less merger- and Spin-Off-related expenses incurred in 2016 ($6 million) (all net of income tax impacts). The Spin-Off of ASB Hawaii was cancelled as it was cross-conditioned on the merger consummation.
In May 2016, the Utilities had filed an application for approval of an liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply and transport agreement and LNG-related capital equipment, which application was conditioned on the PUC’s approval of the proposed Merger. Subsequently, the Utilities terminated the LNG agreement and withdrew the application.

Recent developments. On August 8, 2023, a number of brush fires in the West Maui (Lahaina) and Upcountry Maui areas, caused widespread property damage, including damage to property of the Utilities, and at least 99 fatalities in Lahaina (the Maui windstorm and wildfires). The Maui windstorm and wildfires were fueled by extreme winds and drought-like conditions in those parts of Maui. According to the County of Maui, in addition to the loss of life, over 3,450 acres burned and over 2,500 structures were destroyed. In Lahaina, a fire was reported at about 6:30 a.m. (the “Morning Fire”) and appears to have been caused by power lines that fell in high winds and spread into a field near the Intermediate School. The Maui County Fire Department responded promptly to the Morning Fire, and according to the Fire Department’s public statement that morning, by 9 a.m. the Morning Fire was “100% contained.” The Maui County fire chief subsequently reported that the Fire Department had determined that the Morning Fire was “extinguished.” Shortly before 3 p.m. that day, while the power remained off, Utility crew members saw a small fire in the same field about 75 yards away from Lahainaluna Road. They immediately called 911 and reported the fire (the “Afternoon Fire”). At the time of the Afternoon Fire, the Company’s power lines in the area where that fire ignited were not energized and had not been energized for more than six hours. By the time the Maui County Fire Department arrived back on the scene, it was not able to contain the Afternoon Fire and it spread out of control toward Lahaina. No determination as to the cause of the Afternoon Fire has been made. The Company believes that most of the property damage and all of the fatalities are from the Afternoon Fire.
The circumstances surrounding the Maui windstorm and wildfires are currently the subject of several investigations.
Multiple civil and class action lawsuits related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires have been filed in the Maui and Oahu Circuit Courts against HEI, the Utilities, and other defendants, including the County of Maui, the State of Hawaii and related state entities, private landowners and developers, and telecommunications companies (collectively “tort-related legal claims”). Most of these lawsuits allege that the defendants were responsible for, and/or negligent in failing to prevent or respond to the wildfires that led to the property destruction and loss of life. Other claims include, among other things, personal injury, wrongful death, emotional distress and inverse condemnation. One lawsuit asserting similar theories and claims was filed by the County of Maui against HEI and the Utilities. Additional lawsuits may be filed against the Company and other defendants in the future. The plaintiffs seek to recover damages and other costs, including punitive damages. In addition, a putative securities class action lawsuit against HEI and a putative shareholder derivation action lawsuit against certain current and former officers and directors of HEI and Hawaiian Electric were filed.
On November 8, 2023, Hawaii Governor Josh Green announced the One ‘Ohana Initiative (the Initiative) as a collective path forward to recovery from the Maui windstorm and wildfires. The Initiative is a new humanitarian aid fund expected to exceed $150 million, with the objective to compensate, in an expedited manner, those who have lost loved ones and those who have suffered severe injuries in the Maui windstorm and wildfires. The Initiative provides an alternative to a lengthy and expensive legal process. Beneficiaries are anticipated to receive payments of more than $1 million each as early as the second quarter of 2024 after an administrator is selected and processes are established. In exchange for receiving such a payment, beneficiaries will be required to waive their ability to pursue legal claims for wrongful death and severe injuries. Hawaiian Electric fully supports this humanitarian initiative and has pledged to contribute up to $75 million. The Governor announced that other parties, including the State of Hawaii, the County of Maui, and Kamehameha Schools have all agreed to contribute to the fund, and additional contributions from other parties are possible. Hawaiian Electric’s contribution to the Initiative will be less than half of the total, and Hawaiian Electric's insurance carriers have agreed to fund its share of the contributions to the fund. Hawaiian Electric’s contribution is reflective of its commitment to join with community partners to provide solutions to promote Maui’s recovery. Hawaiian Electric’s commitment to contribute to the Initiative is not an admission of guilt or reflection of fault or liability related to the wildfires. See Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
In the third quarter of 2023, economic conditions in Hawaii remained stable with seasonally adjusted unemployment rate at 2.8% for September 2023 and total passenger counts higher by 0.7% and 7.1% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the prior quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. While economic conditions remained stable during the quarter, the Utility’s kWh sales in the third quarter of 2023 were down by 2.5%, compared to the third quarter of 2022 due to a decrease in Maui sales from the Maui windstorm and wildfires and the continued adoption of energy efficiency measures and distributed energy resources. While the level of kWh sales does not

affect Utility revenues due to decoupling, it may increase or decrease the price per kWh paid by customers. See “Decoupling” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the decoupling mechanism.
At the Bank, due to an increase in wholesale borrowings and term certificates, which was driven primarily by strong loan growth in 2022 coupled with an outflow of core deposits which started in the latter half of 2022 and continued in 2023, the Bank’s net interest margin for the third quarter of 2023 decreased to 2.70%, compared to net interest margin of 2.75% and 2.96% for the prior quarters ended June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.
In March 2023, the banking industry experienced significant turmoil with the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. The failures of these banks were in part due to a significant concentration of deposits in certain industries that contributed to a significant amount of deposit withdrawals that occurred in a short period of time. Both banks had a significant amount of uninsured deposits that exceeded the FDIC insured limits, totaling 88% and 90% for Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, respectively, as of December 31, 2022, which contributed to the “run” on these institutions as depositors became concerned about their bank’s solvency.
As of September 30, 2023, approximately 87% of ASB’s deposits are FDIC insured or fully collateralized. Additionally, ASB’s total deposit base is primarily composed of retail deposits, which represented 84% of the total deposit base as of September 30, 2023. Retail deposits are generally less rate sensitive and less volatile compared to commercial deposits. ASB also remains “well capitalized” and has approximately $3 billion in liquidity, which is nearly three times the amount of uninsured or not collateralized deposits as of September 30, 2023.
ASB’s funding cost, which impacts its net interest margin, is driven by the mix of its funding sources, with the lowest cost source of funding provided by its core deposits. At September 30, 2023, ASB’s year-to-date average core deposits were down approximately 3.2% from year end 2022 balances, which resulted in an increase in ASB’s wholesale borrowings and term certificates to fund loan growth and an in increase in its overall cost of funds. Looking forward, ASB expects that its deposit base will remain relatively flat to down, given the higher interest rate environment, as well as inflationary pressures on customers that may drive increased spending. ASB also expects that the higher interest rate environment will continue to pressure funding costs and its deposit mix, which in turn will affect net interest income and net interest margin.
Since its peak in June of last year, monthly inflation rates have decreased as reflected in the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI). Although the inflation rate, as measured by CPI, appears to be cooling off from last year’s peak, the rate is still at a moderately-high level of 3.7% as of September 2023 and inflationary pressures are expected to continue over the near- to medium-term and have led to higher costs for O&M and capital projects and higher interest expense at the Utilities and HEI, as well as higher compensation and benefits cost at the Bank.
Short-term interest rates have also increased significantly as a result of the Federal Reserve’s ongoing rate increases to the federal funds target rate. The higher interest rate environment has impacted the fair value of the Bank’s investment portfolio, which declined and was recorded as an other comprehensive loss. Unrealized losses on held-to-maturity (HTM) securities are not recorded to other comprehensive loss because ASB has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities till maturity and recover its full investment. At September 30, 2023, the unrealized losses on HTM securities not recorded to other comprehensive losses was approximately $117 million after tax.

Hawaii’s preliminary seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in September 2023 was 2.8%, which was lower compared to the September 2022 rate of 3.7%. The national unemployment rate in September 2023 was 3.8% compared to 3.5% in

September 2022. According to the most recent forecast by UHERO, issued on September 22, 2023, job growth in the state will dip below 2% for 2023 and dip down to 1% in 2024. The Maui windstorm and wildfires destroyed the majority of the businesses in Lahaina, and tourism in West Maui is not expected to recover for some time.Accordingly, unemployment on Maui is predicted to increase above 11% in the fourth quarter of 2017and then gradually decline, though it is not expected to increase by 4.7% over the fourth quarter of 2016 driven primarily by an increase in seats from Asia, Canada and the West Coast.
Hawaii’s unemployment rate continued to decline to 2.5% in September 2017 which was lower than the 3.0% rate a year ago in September 2016 and lower than the national unemployment rate of 4.2% in September 2017.

UHERO forecasts full year 2023 real GDP growth of 3.4%, an increase in total visitor arrivals of 1.9%, an increase in real personal income of 2.9%, and an unemployment rate of 3.7%. This forecast anticipates that, as a result of the Maui windstorm and wildfires, sharp and persistent economic conditions relative to its objectives of maximum employment and 2% inflation in determining the size and timing of future adjustmentslosses will be felt on Maui with limited spillover to the target range.

Note: The statistical data in this section is from public third-party sources that management believes to be reliable (e.g., Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism (DBEDT), University of Hawaii Economic Research Organization (UHERO), U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR), Hawaii Tourism Authority (HTA), Honolulu Board of REALTORS® and national and local news media).
In the third quarter, the average daily passenger count was as follows:0.7% higher than the comparable period in the prior year, but down 6.5% compared to the 2019 pre-COVID-19 count. The recovery in total passenger counts from the low levels in 2020, which occurred under COVID-19 restrictions, thus far has been driven by domestic travelers, with international travelers, primarily Japan, remaining at lower levels, but activity is increasing compared to 2022. In the third quarter, international visitor arrivals (excluding Japan) have continued to increase at a modest pace, but is still 18.7% below 2019 levels, whereas Japanese visitors are 47.1% below 2019 levels.
Hawaii’s preliminary seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in September 2023 was 2.8%, which was lower compared to the September 2022 rate of 3.7%. The national unemployment rate in September 2023 was 3.8% compared to 3.5% in

From December 7, 2016Hawaii real estate activity through September 2023, as indicated by Oahu’s home resale market, resulted in a 6.0% increase in the median sales price ($532,000) for condominiums, and a decrease of 4.5% for single-family homes compared to date, HEI satisfied the share purchase requirements of the HEI Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (DRIP), HEIRSP and ASB 401(k) Plan through open market purchases of its common stock rather than through new issuances.
In December 2014, HEI filed an omnibus registration statement to register an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities.
For the first nine months of 2017, net cash provided by operating activities of HEI consolidated was $291 million. Net cash used by investing activities for the same period was $440 million, primarily duein 2022, with the September median single-family home price of $1,050,000. The number of closed sales decreased 31.2% for condominiums and 30.5% for single-family residential homes through the third quarter of 2023 compared to Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated capital expenditures2022.
Hawaii’s petroleum product prices relate to the crude oil in international markets. The price of crude oil has decreased through July 2023 and ASB’s purchasessince then, gradually increased through September, although remaining below 2022’s peak.
At its September 20, 2023 meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decided to maintain the federal funds rate target range of investment5.25% - 5.50% and anticipates ongoing increases as appropriate. The FOMC is still assessing plans to adjust their stance on monetary policy depending on the economic outlook to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate of 2 percent over the long run. The Federal Reserve stated that it will continue to reduce its holdings of Treasury securities partly offset by ASB’s receiptand agency mortgage-backed securities.
UHERO forecasts full year 2023 real GDP growth of repayments from investment securities, proceeds from the sale3.4%, an increase in total visitor arrivals of commercial loans1.9%, an increase in real personal income of 2.9%, and net decrease in loans held for investment and Hawaiian Electric’s contributions in aidan unemployment rate of construction. Net cash provided by financing activities during this period was $73 million3.7%. This forecast anticipates that, as a result of several factors, includingthe Maui windstorm and wildfires, sharp and persistent economic losses will be felt on Maui with limited spillover to the rest of the State. UHERO is expecting that many would-be Maui visitors will vacation to other islands most likely Kauai or the Big Island. The Japanese market continues to fall short of expectations due to the weak yen. Other counties’ construction projects will need to compete with Maui’s recovery efforts, and once rebuilding starts the number of jobs in the sector will be slightly higher than previous forecast. The U.S. is likely to avoid a recession, but further rate increases could change that outcome. The uncertainties on Maui’s recovery will lead to changes in short-term borrowingsfuture forecasts and ASB’s deposit liabilities, proceedsas more information becomes available UHERO will refine said forecasts. If economic conditions worsen from other bank borrowings and net increases in ASB’s retail purchase agreements, partly offset by the paymentcurrent levels or remain depressed for an extended period of common stock dividends and repayments of other bank borrowings. Also included in cash provided by financing activities were proceeds from the issuance of special purpose revenue bonds (SPRBs), which were offset by the transfer of funds totime, it could have a trustee for the redemption of previously issued SPRBs. Other than capital contributions from their parent company, intercompany services (and related intercompany payables and receivables), Hawaiian Electric’s periodic short-term borrowings from HEI (and related interest) and the payment of dividends to HEI, the electric utility and bank segments are largely autonomous in their operating, investing and financing activities. (See the electric utility and bank segments’ discussions of their cash flows in their respective “Financial condition—Liquidity and capital resources” sections below.) During the first nine months of 2017, Hawaiian Electric and ASB (through ASB Hawaii) paid cash dividends to HEI of $66 million and $28 million, respectively.


CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company’s results of operations and financial condition can be affected by numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control and could cause future results of operations to differ materially from historical results. For information about certain of these factors, see pages 47, 62 to 64, and 73 to 75 of HEI’s MD&A included in Part II, Item 7 of HEI’s 2016 Form 10-K.
Additional factors that may affect future results and financial condition are describedmaterial unfavorable impact on pages iv and v under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
MATERIAL ESTIMATES AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
In accordance with SEC Release No. 33-8040, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies,” management has identified the accounting policies it believes to be the most critical to the Company’s financial statements—that is, management believes that these policies are bothposition or results of operations.

Corporate expenses for the third quarter of 2023 were $3.4 million higher than the same period in 2022, primarily due to $4.6 million of Maui windstorm and wildfires related costs in third quarter of 2023, partly offset by lower general and administrative expenses. The first nine months of 2023 and 2022 include ($1.8 million) and $2.3 million of operating income (loss), respectively, from Pacific Current1. The higher operating loss is primarily due to lower Pacific Current asset performance.

Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated ROACE was 7.2%The Company’s effective tax rates for the twelvethird quarters of 2023 and 2022 were 15% and 22%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 were 20% and 21%, respectively. The effective tax rates were lower for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023 primarily due to lower pretax income and higher nontaxable bank-owned life insurance, partially offset by the lower amortization in 2023 of the Utilities’ regulatory liability related to certain excess deferred income taxes resulting from the Tax Act’s decrease in the federal income tax rate.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 8.1% for2023 the twelve months ended September 30, 2016.
The Utilities’ consolidated KWH sales have declined each year since 2007. Based on expectations of additional customer renewable self-generation and energy-efficiency installations, the Utilities’ full year 2017 KWH sales are expected to be below the 2016 level.

Executive overview and strategy. The Utilities provide electricity on all the principal islands in the state other than Kauai and operate five separate grids. The Utilities’ mission is to provide innovative energy leadership for Hawaii, to meet the needs and expectations of customers and communities, and to empower them with affordable, reliable and clean energy. The goal is to create a modern, flexible and dynamic electric grid that enables an optimal mix of distributed energy resources (such as private rooftop solar), demand response and grid-scale resources to achieve the statutory goal of 100% renewable energy by 2045.
Transition to renewable energy. The Utilities are committed to assisting the State of Hawaii in achieving its Renewable Portfolio Standard goal of 100% renewable energy by 2045. Hawaii’s Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) law was revised in the 2015 Legislature and requires electric utilities to meet an RPS of 15%, 30%, 40%, 70% and 100% by December 31, 2015, 2020, 2030, 2040 and 2045, respectively. The Utilities have been successful in adding significant amounts of renewable energy resources to their electric systems and exceeded the 2015 RPS goal. The Utilities' RPS for 2016 was about 26% and on its way to achieving the 2020 RPS goal of 30%. (See "Developments in renewable energy efforts” below).
In April 2014, the PUC issued orders that collectively address certain key policy, resource planning and operational issues for the Utilities. The April 2014 regulatory orders were to address: (1) Integrated Resource Planning and Power Supply Improvement Plans (PSIPs), (2) Reliability Standards Working Group, and (3) Policy Statement and Order Regarding Demand Response Programs, which are described below. The PUC also provided its inclinations on the future of Hawaii’s electric utilities in one of the orders. The PUC provided its perspectives on the vision, business strategies and regulatory policy changes required to align the Utilities' business model with customers’ interests and the state’s public policy goals.
Integrated Resource Planning and Power Supply Improvement Plans. The PUC did not accept the Utilities’ Integrated Resource Plan and Action Plans submission, and, in lieu of an approved plan, commenced other initiatives to enable resource planning. As required by the PUC orders, the Utilities filed proposed PSIPs with the PUC in August 2014. Updated PSIPs were filed in April 2016 and December 2016 in response to PUC orders. The PSIPs provided plans to achieve 100% renewable energy using a diverse mix of energy resources by 2045. Under these plans, the Utilities support sustainable growth of private rooftop solar, expand use of energy storage systems, empower customers by developing smart grids and offer new products and services to customers (e.g., community solar, microgrids and voluntary “demand response” programs).
In the December 2016 PSIP Update Report, the updated plans describe greater and faster expansion of the Utilities’ renewable energy portfolio than in the plans filed in April 2016. The plans include the continued growth of private rooftop solar and describe the grid and generation modernization work needed to reliably integrate an estimated total of 165,000 private systems by 2030, and additional grid-scale renewable energy resources. The Utilities already have the highest percentage of customers using private rooftop solar of any utility in the U.S. and customer-sited resources are seen as a key contributor to the growth of the renewable portfolio on every island. In addition, the plans forecast the addition of 360 MW of grid-scale solar and 157 MW of grid-scale wind, with 32 MW derived from community-based renewable energy (CBRE). The plans also include 115 MW from Demand Response (DR) programs, which can shift customer use of electricity to times when more renewable energy is available, potentially making room to add even more renewable resources. Unlike the April 2016 updated PSIPs, the December 2016 update does not include the use of LNG to generate power in the near-term or the Kahe 3x1 Combined Cycle Plant. While LNG remains a potential lower-cost bridge fuel to be evaluated, the Utilities’ priority is to continue replacing fossil fuel generation with renewables over the next five years as federal tax incentives for renewables begin to phase out. An interisland cable is not in the near-term plan, which states that its costs and benefits should continue to be evaluated. The December 2016 Update Report emphasizes work that is in progress or planned over the next five years on each of the five islands the Utilities serve.
On July 14, 2017, the PUC accepted the Utilities’ PSIP December 2016 Update Report and closed the proceeding. In its order, the PUC provided guidance regarding the implementation of the Utilities’ near-term action plan and future planning activities, requiring the Utilities to file a report that details an updated resource planning approach and schedule by March 1, 2018. The PUC order stated that it intends to use the PSIPs in conjunction with its evaluation of specific filings for approval of capital and other projects.
Reliability standards working group. In April 2014, the PUC ordered the Utilities to take timely actions intended to lower energy costs, improve system reliability and address emerging challenges to integrate additional renewable energy. In addition to the PSIPs mentioned above, the PUC ordered certain filing requirements, including a Distributed Generation Interconnection Plan, which the Utilities filed in August 2014.
The PUC also stated it would be opening new dockets to address (1) reliability standards, (2) the technical, economic and policy issues associated with distributed energy resources (DER) and (3) the Hawaii electricity reliability administrator, which is a third-party position that the legislature has authorized the PUC to create by contract to provide support for the PUC in developing and periodically updating local grid reliability standards and procedures and interconnection requirements and overseeing grid access and operation. The PUC has not yet opened new dockets to address the first and third topics above. To


address DER, the second topic, the PUC opened an investigative proceeding on August 21, 2014 (see “DER investigative proceeding” below).
Policy statement and order regarding demand response programs. The PUC provided guidance concerning the objectives and goals for DR programs, and ordered the Utilities to develop an integrated DR Portfolio Plan that will enhance system operations and reduce costs to customers. The Utilities’ Plan was filed in July 2014. Subsequently, the Utilities submitted status updates and an update and supplemental report to the Plan. In July 2015, the PUC issued an order appointing a special adviser to guide, monitor and review the Utility’s Plan design and implementation. In December 2015, the Utilities filed an application with the PUC for approval of their proposed DR Portfolio Tariff Structure, Reporting Schedule and Cost Recovery of Program Costs. The Utilities filed an updated DR Portfolio Plan in February 2017. In May 2017, the Utilities filed their reply to the statements of position submitted by the other parties and are awaiting a PUC decision.
In October 2017, the PUC approved the Utilities request made in December 2015 to defer and recover certain computer software and software development costs for a DR Management System in an amount not to exceed $3.9 million, exclusive of AFUDC, through the Renewable Energy Infrastructure Program (REIP) Surcharge. The Utilities expect the DR Management System to be in service by the end of 2018.
DER investigative proceeding. In March 2015, the PUC issued an order to address DER issues.
In June 2015, the Utilities submitted their final Statement of Position in the DER proceeding, which included new pricing provisions for future private rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems, technical standards for advanced inverters, new options for customers including battery-equipped private rooftop PV systems, a pilot time-of-use rate, an improved method of calculating the amount of private rooftop PV that can be safely installed, and a streamlined and standardized PV application process.
In October 2015, the PUC issued a D&O establishing DER reforms that: (1) promote rapid adoption of the next generation of solar PV and other distributed energy technologies; (2) encourage more competitive pricing of distributed energy resource systems; (3) lower overall energy supply costs for all customers; and (4) help to manage DER in terms of each island’s limited grid capacity. The D&O capped the Utilities Net Energy Metering (NEM) programs at “existing” levels (i.e., for existing NEM customers and customers who already applied and were waiting for approval), closed the NEM programs to new participants, and approved new interim options for customers to interconnect DER to the utility electric grids, including Self Supply and Grid Supply tariff options and modified interconnection standards. The PUC placed caps on the availability of the Grid Supply program. The Self Supply Program is designed for customers who do not export to the grid.
On October 20, 2017, the PUC issued a D&O which further revises interconnection requirements, creates a Smart Export program, modifies the customer-grid supply program (Controllable Customer Grid Supply), clarifies that non-export customer systems can be added to the existing NEM program, and provides guidance and reporting requirements regarding hosting capacity analyses. The Smart Export program is designed for PV systems with battery storage and features zero compensation during mid-day, but enhanced compensation at other times of the day to reflect the value of the energy to the grid at different times of the day. The Controllable Customer Grid Supply program allows PV systems without battery storage to deliver energy to the grid on an as-available basis except when system-wide technical conditions require reduction of output. The D&O specified island-specific pricing and program caps for the Smart Export and Controllable Customer Grid Supply programs. Customers currently under the customer-grid supply program are grandfathered under existing rates for the next five years. The D&O also authorizes activation of new advanced inverter functions in PV and storage systems, which will provide support to the electric grid during different types of grid disturbances. The utilities must file tariffs consistent with the programs described in the D&O.
Grid modernization. After launching a smart grid customer engagement plan during the second quarter of 2014, Hawaiian Electric replaced approximately 5,200 residential and commercial meters with smart meters, 160 direct load control switches, fault circuit indicators and remote controlled switches in selected areas across Oahu as part of the Smart Grid Initial Phase implementation. Also under the Initial Phase a grid efficiency measure called Volt/Var Optimization (or Conservation Voltage Reduction) was enabled, customer energy portals were launched and are available for customer use and a PrePay Application was launched. The Initial Phase implementation was completed in 2015. The smart grid provides benefits such as customer tools to manage their electric bills, potentially shortening outages and enabling the Utilities to integrate more low-cost renewable energy, like wind and solar, which will reduce Hawaii’s dependence on imported oil.
In March 2016, the Utilities sought PUC approval to commit funds for an expansion of the smart grid project. The proposed smart grid project was estimated to cost $340 million and to be implemented over 5 years. On January 4, 2017, the PUC issued an order dismissing the application without prejudice and directing the Utilities to submit a Grid Modernization Strategy.
The PUC indicated that the overall goal of the Grid Modernization Strategy is to deploy modern grid investments at an appropriate priority, sequence and pace to cost-effectively maximize flexibility, minimize the risk of redundancy and


obsolescence, deliver customer benefits and enable greater DER and renewable energy integration. On June 30, 2017, the Utilities filed an initial draft of the Grid Modernization Strategy describing how new technology will help triple private rooftop solar and make use of rapidly evolving products including storage and advanced inverters. The cost of the first segment of the modernization is estimated at about $205 million over six years. The Utilities filed their final Grid Modernization Strategy on August 29, 2017. The PUC will set forth any next steps after reviewing the final Strategy and public comments.
Community-Based Renewable Energy. On October 1, 2015, the Utilities filed a proposed CBRE program and tariff with the PUC that would allow customers who cannot, or chose not to, take advantage of private rooftop solar to receive the benefits of renewable energy to help offset their monthly electric bills and support clean energy for Hawaii. In November 2015, the PUC suspended the tariff submittal and opened an investigatory docket. In February 2017, the PUC issued a proposed CBRE Program Framework and a Proposed Model Tariff Language, which significantly increased the scope of the program. Under the proposed CBRE Program Framework, the CBRE program will utilize a phased approach. The Program Framework proposes a Phase 1 with an 80 MW capacity statewide with 73 MW allocated to the Utilities' service territories. During Tranche A of the CBRE Phase 1 Program, the Utilities' primary role is to serve as the program administrator. In Tranche B, the Utilities are allowed to develop 9 MW in the service territories, 75% of the capacity is reserved for low-to-moderate income subscribers. In March 2017, the Utilities submitted comments to the Program Framework, which identified certain concerns should the proposed CBRE Program Framework be adopted and requested a technical conference before a decision is issued. In June 2017, a technical conference with the PUC was completed with the Utilities, the Consumer Advocate and industry stakeholders. The Utilities are awaiting the PUC’s decision on the CBRE program.
Decoupling. See "Decoupling"Subsequent event - One ‘Ohana Initiative in Note 32 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for a discussion of decoupling.were as follows:
As part of decoupling, the Utilities also track their rate-making ROACEs as calculated under the earnings sharing mechanism, which includes only items considered in establishing rates. At year-end, each utility's rate-making ROACE is compared against its ROACE allowed by the PUC to determine whether earnings sharing has been triggered. Annual earnings of a utility over

The gap between PUC-allowed ROACEsCompany expects to continue to incur significant expenditures in connection with the Maui windstorm and wildfires; however, the ROACEs actually achievedCompany is primarily due to:looking to mitigate the consistent exclusion of certain expenses from rates (for example, incentive compensation and charitable contributions),financial impact through seeking insurance recoveries as well as the recognition of annual RAM revenues on June 1 annually rather than on January 1, the low RBA interest rate (currently a short-term debt rate rather than the actual cost of capital), O&M increases and return on capital additions since the last rate case in excess of indexed escalations, and the portion of the pension regulatory asset not earning a return due to pension contributions and pension costs in excess of the pension amount in rates.Utilities requesting for deferral treatment for incremental non-labor expense.
Most recent rate proceedings.  Unless otherwise agreed or ordered, each electric utility is currently required by PUC order to initiate a rate proceeding every third year (on a staggered basis) to allow the PUC and the Consumer Advocate to regularly evaluate decoupling and to allow the utility to request electric rate increases to cover rising operating costs and the cost of plant and equipment, including the cost of new capital projects to maintain and improve service reliability and integrate more renewable energy. The PUC may grant an interim increase within 10 to 11 months following the filing of an application, but there is no guarantee of such an interim increase and interim amounts collected are refundable, with interest, to the extent they exceed the amount approved in the PUC’s final D&O. The timing and amount of any final increase is determined at the discretion of the PUC. The adoption of revenue, expense, rate base and cost of capital amounts (including the ROACE and


RORB) for purposes of an interim rate increase does not commit the PUC to accept any such amounts in its final D&O.

Note: The “Request” date reflectsstatistical data in this section is from public third-party sources that management believes to be reliable (e.g., Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism (DBEDT), University of Hawaii Economic Research Organization (UHERO), U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR), Hawaii Tourism Authority (HTA), Honolulu Board of REALTORS® and national and local news media).
In the application filing datethird quarter, the average daily passenger count was 0.7% higher than the comparable period in the prior year, but down 6.5% compared to the 2019 pre-COVID-19 count. The recovery in total passenger counts from the low levels in 2020, which occurred under COVID-19 restrictions, thus far has been driven by domestic travelers, with international travelers, primarily Japan, remaining at lower levels, but activity is increasing compared to 2022. In the third quarter, international visitor arrivals (excluding Japan) have continued to increase at a modest pace, but is still 18.7% below 2019 levels, whereas Japanese visitors are 47.1% below 2019 levels.
Hawaii’s preliminary seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in September 2023 was 2.8%, which was lower compared to the September 2022 rate of 3.7%. The national unemployment rate in September 2023 was 3.8% compared to 3.5% in

September 2022. According to the most recent forecast by UHERO, issued on September 22, 2023, job growth in the state will dip below 2% for 2023 and dip down to 1% in 2024. The Maui windstorm and wildfires destroyed the majority of the businesses in Lahaina, and tourism in West Maui is not expected to recover for some time.Accordingly, unemployment on Maui is predicted to increase above 11% in the fourth quarter and then gradually decline, though it is not expected to dip below 4% until late-2026.
Hawaii real estate activity through September 2023, as indicated by Oahu’s home resale market, resulted in a 6.0% increase in the median sales price ($532,000) for condominiums, and a decrease of 4.5% for single-family homes compared to the same period in 2022, with the September median single-family home price of $1,050,000. The number of closed sales decreased 31.2% for condominiums and 30.5% for single-family residential homes through the third quarter of 2023 compared to 2022.
Hawaii’s petroleum product prices relate to the crude oil in international markets. The price of crude oil has decreased through July 2023 and since then, gradually increased through September, although remaining below 2022’s peak.
At its September 20, 2023 meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decided to maintain the federal funds rate target range of 5.25% - 5.50% and anticipates ongoing increases as appropriate. The FOMC is still assessing plans to adjust their stance on monetary policy depending on the economic outlook to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate proceeding.of 2 percent over the long run. The “Interim increase” date reflects the effective dateFederal Reserve stated that it will continue to reduce its holdings of the revised schedulesTreasury securities and tariffsagency mortgage-backed securities.
UHERO forecasts full year 2023 real GDP growth of 3.4%, an increase in total visitor arrivals of 1.9%, an increase in real personal income of 2.9%, and an unemployment rate of 3.7%. This forecast anticipates that, as a result of the PUC-approved increase.Maui windstorm and wildfires, sharp and persistent economic losses will be felt on Maui with limited spillover to the rest of the State. UHERO is expecting that many would-be Maui visitors will vacation to other islands most likely Kauai or the Big Island. The Japanese market continues to fall short of expectations due to the weak yen. Other counties’ construction projects will need to compete with Maui’s recovery efforts, and once rebuilding starts the number of jobs in the sector will be slightly higher than previous forecast. The U.S. is likely to avoid a recession, but further rate increases could change that outcome. The uncertainties on Maui’s recovery will lead to changes in future forecasts and as more information becomes available UHERO will refine said forecasts. If economic conditions worsen from current levels or remain depressed for an extended period of time, it could have a material unfavorable impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Developments in renewable energy effortsDevelopments in the Utilities’ efforts to further their renewable energy strategy include renewable energy projects discussed in Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the following:
New renewable PPAs.
In July 2015, the PUC approved the PPA for the 27.6 MW Waianae Solar project that was developed by Eurus Energy America. The project achieved commercial operations in January 2017 and is now the largest solar project in Hawaii.
In July 2015, Maui Electric signed two PPAs, with Kuia Solar and South Maui Renewable Resources (which subsequently assigned its PPA to SSA Solar of HI 2, LLC and SSA Solar of HI 3, LLC, respectively), each for a 2.87-MW solar facility. In February 2016, the PUC approved both PPAs, subject to certain conditions and modifications. The guaranteed commercial operations date for the facilities was December 31, 2016, however both projects are experiencing delays and are now expected to be completed by the end of the fourth quarter in 2017.   
In December 2014, the PUC approved a PPA for Renewable As-Available Energy dated October 3, 2013 between Hawaiian Electric and Na Pua Makani Power Partners, LLC (NPM) for a proposed 24-MW wind farm on Oahu. In September 2016, Hawaiian Electric filed an Amended and Restated PPA, dated August 12, 2016, which reflects the completion of an interconnection requirements study. In October 2017, the PUC approved the construction of an


overhead 46 kV sub-transmission line to accommodate the interconnection of the NPM wind farm, which is expected to be placed into service by August 31, 2019.
Hawaiian Electric had PPAs to purchase solar energy with three affiliates of SunEdison. In February 2016, as a result of the project entities missing contract milestones, Hawaiian Electric terminated the original PPAs for the three projects. SunEdison filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and during those proceedings, the three SunEdison affiliates were acquired by an affiliate of NRG Energy, Inc. (NRG). Hawaiian Electric then negotiated with NRG and its newly acquired affiliates and has entered into amended and restated PPAs for solar energy on Oahu with Waipio PV, LLC for 45.9 MW, Lanikuhana Solar, LLC for 14.7 MW and Kawailoa Solar, LLC for 49.0 MW. On July 27, 2017, the PUC approved the three NRG PPAs, subject to modifications and conditions. The three projects are expected to be in service by the end of 2019.
Tariffed renewable resources.
As of September 30, 2017, there were approximately 330 MW, 77 MW and 88 MW of installed distributed renewable energy technologies (mainly PV) at Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric, respectively, for tariff-based private customer generation programs, namely NEM, Customer Grid Supply and Customer Self Supply. As of September 30, 2017, an estimated 27% of single family homesLight; Pacific Current’s subsidiaries, Mauo, LLC (Mauo), which owns solar-plus-storage projects totaling 8.6 MW on the islands of Oahu, Hawaii, and Maui have installed private rooftop solar systems, and an estimated 29% of single family homes have installed, or have been approved to install, private rooftop solar systems. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 16% of the Utilities' total customers have solar systems.   
The Utilities began accepting energy from feed-in tariff projects in 2011. As of September 30, 2017, there were 30 MW, 3 MW and 5 MW of installed feed-in tariff capacity from renewable energy technologies at Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric, respectively.
Biofuel sources.
In September 2015, the PUC approved Hawaiian Electric’s 2-year biodiesel supply contract with Pacific Biodiesel Technologies, LLC (PBT) to supply 2 million to 3 million gallons of biodiesel at Campbell Industrial Park combustion turbine No. 1 (CIP CT-1) and the Honolulu International Airport Emergency Power Facility beginning in November 2015. The PBT contract is set to expire on November 2, 2018. PBT also has a spot buy contract with Hawaiian Electric to purchase additional quantities of biodiesel at or below the price of diesel. Some purchases of “at parity” biodiesel have been made under the spot purchase contract, which was recently extended through June 2018. REG Marketing & Logistics Group, LLC has a contingency supply contract with Hawaiian Electric to also supply biodiesel to CIP CT-1 in the event PBT is not able to supply necessary quantities. This contingency contract has been extended to November 2018, and will continue with no volume purchase requirements.
On April 28, 2017 Hawaiian Electric issued a Biofuel Supply Request for Proposal for 3.1 million gallons of biofuel per year for three years, to commence as early as November 2018 to be used as fuel for power generation at Hawaiian Electric’s Schofield Generating Station, the Honolulu International Airport Emergency Power Facility and any other generating unit on Oahu, as necessary. Hawaiian Electric is in negotiations with a bidder.
Requests for renewable proposals, expressions of interest, and information.
In response to requests filed by the utilities, on October 6, 2017, the PUC opened a docket to receive filings, review approval requests, and resolve disputes, if necessary, related to the Utilities' plan to proceed with a competitive bidding process of dispatchable firm renewable generation on the island of Maui and variable renewable generation on the islands of Oahu, Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, and Lanai. The PUC also indicated that it will appoint an independent observer to monitor the competitive bidding process. On October 23, 2017, the Utilities filed draft requests for proposals for 220 megawatts (MW) of renewable generation on Oahu, 50 MW of renewable generation on Hawaii Island, and 100 MW of renewable generation on Maui, including 40 MW of firm renewable generation (all resources to be in service by the end of 2022). With this filing, the Utilities also filed proposed model power purchase agreements and timelines for each proposed procurement. Maui Electric proposed to suspend its request to issue variable renewable dispatchable generation RFPs for Molokai and Lanai as Maui Electric is already in discussions on such islands regarding renewable generation.
On January 5, 2017, Hawaiian Electric issued an Onshore Wind Expression of Interest requesting expressions of interest from independent power producers that are capable of developing utility scale onshore wind projects that are eligible to capture the federal Investment Tax Credit for Large Wind on the island of Oahu. Responses have been accepted and Hawaiian Electric is in non-binding confidential discussions regarding such responses.
On December 12, 2016, the Utilities issued a request for information asking interested landowners to provide information about properties available for utility-scale renewable energy projects or for growing biofuel feedstock on


the islands of Oahu, Hawaii, Maui, Molokai and Lanai. Responses have been made available to developers interested in developing renewable energy projects in these five islands.
Adequacy of supply.
Hawaiian Electric. In January 2017, Hawaiian Electric filed its 2017 Adequacy of Supply (AOS) letter, which indicated that based on its October 2016 sales and peak forecast for the 2017 - 2021 time period, Hawaiian Electric's generation capacity will be sufficient to meet reasonably expected demands for service and provide reasonable reserves for emergencies through 2018, but may have shortfalls in meeting the Utilities’ generating system reliability guideline. The calculated reliability guideline shortfalls are relatively small and Hawaiian Electric can implement mitigation measures.
In accordance to its planning criteria, Hawaiian Electric deactivated two fossil fuel generating units from active service at its Honolulu Power Plant in January 2014 and anticipates deactivating two additional fossil fuel units at its Waiau Power Plant in the 2022 timeframe. Hawaiian Electric acquired new firm capacity with the commissioning of the State of Hawaii Department of Transportation’s emergency power facility in June 2017. Hawaiian Electric is proceeding with a future firm capacity addition with the U.S. Department of the Army for a utility owned and operated renewable, dispatchable, including black start capabilities, generation security project on federal lands, which is expected to be in service in the second quarter of 2018. Hawaiian Electric is continuing negotiations with firm capacity IPPs on Oahu. On August 31, 2017, Hawaiian Electric and Kalaeloa entered into an agreement that neither party will give written notice of termination of the Kalaeloa PPA prior to October 31, 2018. The PPA with AES Hawaii is scheduled to expire in 2022. 
Hawaii Electric Light. In January 2017, Hawaii Electric Light filed its 2017 AOS letter, which indicated that Hawaii Electric Light’s generation capacity through 2019 is sufficient to meet reasonably expected demands for service and provide for reasonable reserves for emergencies. Additional generation from other renewable resources could be added in the 2018-2025 timeframe.
Maui Electric. In January 2017, Maui Electric filed its 2017 AOS letter, which indicated that Maui Electric’s generation capacity for the islands of Lanai and Molokai for the next three years is sufficiently large to meet all reasonably expected demands for service and provide reasonable reserves for emergencies. The 2017 AOS letter also indicated that without the peak reduction benefits of demand response but with the equivalent firm capacity value of wind generation, Maui Electric expects to have a small reserve capacity shortfall from 2017 to 2022 on the island of Maui. Maui Electric is evaluating several measures to mitigate the anticipated reserve capacity shortfall.  Maui Electric anticipates needing a significant amount of additional firm capacity on Maui in the 2022 timeframe after the planned retirement of the Kahului Power Plant.
In February 2014, Maui Electric deactivated two fossil fuel generating units, with a combined rating of 11.4 MW-net, at its Kahului Power Plant. Due to various system conditions including lack of wind generation, approaching storms and scheduled and unscheduled outages of generating units, transmission lines and independent power producers, the two deactivated units at Kahului Power Plant were reactivated for several days in 2015 and 2016. Due to the frequency of reactivations of Kahului Units 1 and 2 to meet system requirements, these units were removed from deactivated status and designated as reactivated in September 2016. Considering the time needed to acquire replacement firm generating capacity, Maui Electric now anticipates the retirement of all generating units at the Kahului Power Plant, which have a combined rating of 32.3 MW, in the 2022 timeframe. A capacity planning analysis is in progress to better define generating needs and timing. Maui Electric plans to issue one or more RFPs for energy storage, demand response and firm generating capacity, and to make system improvements needed to ensure reliability and voltage support in this timeframe. In May 2016, Maui Electric requested that the PUC open a new docket for Maui Electric’s competitive bidding process for additional firm capacity resources. In September 2016, Maui Electric submitted an application to purchase and install three temporary mobile distributed generation diesel engines to address increasing reserve capacity shortfalls on the island of Maui; Maui Electric has since requested the PUC to suspend the proceeding until the end of 2017 to evaluate contingency measures and permanent solutions to minimize or eliminate the risk of near-term capacity shortfalls on the island of Maui.
Legislation and regulation. Congress and the Hawaii legislature periodically consider legislation that could have positive or negative effects on the Utilities and their customers. See “Recent tax developments” in Note 9 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Also, in recent years, legislative, regulatory and governmental activities related to the environment, including proposals and rulemaking under the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act (CWA), have increased significantly.
Clean Water Act Section 316(b). On August 14, 2014, the EPA published in the Federal Register the final regulations required by section 316(b) of the CWA designed to protect aquatic organisms from adverse impacts associated with existing power plant cooling water intake structures. The regulations were effective October 14, 2014 and apply to the cooling water systems for the steam generating units at three of Hawaiian Electric’s power plants on the island of Oahu. The regulations prescribe a process, including a number of required site-specific studies, for states to develop facility-specific entrainment and impingement controls to be incorporated in each facility’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit. Hawaiian


Electric submitted the final site specific studies to the DOH in December 2016 for the Honolulu and Waiau power plants and in September 2017 for the Kahe power plant. Hawaiian Electric will work with the DOH to identify the appropriate compliance methods for the 316(b) rule.
Mercury Air Toxics Standards. On February 16, 2012, the EPA published the final rule establishing the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for fossil-fuel fired steam electrical generating units (EGUs) in the Federal Register. The final rule, known as the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS), applies to the 14 EGUs at Hawaiian Electric’s power plants. MATS established the Maximum Achievable Control Technology standards for the control of hazardous air pollutants emissions from new and existing EGUs. Hawaiian Electric initially selected a MATS compliance strategy based on switching to lower emission fuels, but has since continued developing and refining its emission control strategy. Hawaiian Electric’s liquid oil-fired steam generating units that are subject to the MATS limits are able to comply with the new standards without a significant fuel switch in combination with a suite of operational changes.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Liquidity and capital resources.  Management believes that Hawaiian Electric’s ability, and that of its subsidiaries, to generate cash, both internally from operations and externally from issuances of equity and debt securities and commercial paper and draws on lines of credit, is adequate to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund their respective capital expenditures and investments and to cover debt, retirement benefits and other cash requirements in the foreseeable future.
Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated capital structure was as follows:

1   The maximum amount of external short-term borrowings by Hawaiian Electric during the first nine months of 2017 was $48 million. As of September 30, 2017, Hawaiian Electric had short-term borrowings from Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric of $6.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively. As of October 27, 2017, Hawaiian Electric had $2 million of outstanding commercial paper, no draws under its line of credit facility and no borrowings from HEI. Also, as of October 27, 2017, Hawaiian Electric had short-term borrowings from Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric of $13.1 million and $7.0 million, respectively, which intercompany borrowings are eliminated in consolidation.
Hawaiian Electric has a $200 million line of credit facility. See Note 5 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.


In May 2015, up to $80 million of SPRBs ($70 million for Hawaiian Electric, $2.5 million for Hawaii Electric Light and $7.5 million for Maui Electric) were authorized by the Hawaii legislature for issuance, with PUC approval, prior to June 30, 2020 to finance the Utilities’ capital improvement programs.
On January 26, 2017, Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric obtained PUC approval to issue, on or before December 31, 2017, unsecured obligations bearing taxable interest (Hawaiian Electric up to $100 million, Hawaii Electric Light up to $10 million and Maui Electric up to $30 million), with the proceeds expected to be used, as applicable, to finance capital expenditures, repay long-term and/or short term debt used to finance or refinance capital expenditures and/or to reimburse funds used for payment of capital expenditures.
In March 2017 and amended in April 2017, the Utilities requested PUC approval to issue and sell each utility’s common stock through December 31, 2021 (Hawaiian Electric’s sale/s to HEI of up to $150 million and Hawaii Electric Light’s and Maui Electric’s sale/s to Hawaiian Electric of up to $10 million each) and the purchase of Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric common stock by Hawaiian Electric through December 31, 2021. On October 31, 2017, the PUC issued a D&O approving the issue and sale of each utility’s common stock as requested in the application.
In September 2017, the Utilities requested PUC approval to issue, over a four-year period from 2018 to December 31, 2021, unsecured obligations bearing taxable interest (Hawaiian Electric up to $280 million, Hawaii Electric Light up to $30 million and Maui Electric up to $10 million), with the proceeds expected to be used, as applicable, to finance capital expenditures, repay long-term and/or short term debt used to finance or refinance capital expenditures and/or to reimburse funds used for payment of capital expenditures.
Cash flows. The following table reflects the changes in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016:
 Nine months ended September 30,  
(in thousands)2017 2016 Change
Net cash provided by operating activities$229,902
 $275,271
 $(45,369)
Net cash used in investing activities(229,287) (226,036) (3,251)
Net cash used in financing activities(64,914) (50,707) (14,207)
Net cash provided by operating activities. Cash flows from operating activities generally relate to the amount and timing of cash received from customers and payments made to third parties. Using the indirect method of determining cash flows from operating activities, noncash expense items such as depreciation and amortization, as well as changes in certain assets and liabilities, are added to (or deducted from) net income.
The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was impacted by the following:
Lower cash from an increase in accounts receivable due to timing and an increase in fuel prices.
Lower cash from a decrease in accounts payable due to timing on payments of invoices related to fuel and capital projects.
Lower cash from an increase in unbilled revenues due to higher fuel prices.
Lower cash due to refund of federal income taxes in 2016 based on bonus depreciation enacted in the fourth quarter of 2015 (similar treatment was not granted in the fourth quarter of 2016).
Net cash used in investing activities. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was driven primarily by an increase in capital expenditures related to construction activities, offset by higher contributions in aid of construction and capital good tax credits.
Net cash used in financing activities. Financing activities provide supplemental cash for both day-to-day operations and capital requirements as needed. The increase in net cash used in financing activities primarily reflects lower short-term borrowings.
2017 forecast capital expenditures. For 2017, the Utilities forecast $400 million of net capital expenditures, which could change over time based upon external factors such as the timing and scope of environmental regulations, unforeseen delays in permitting and timing of PUC decisions. Proceeds from the issuance of equity and long-term debt, cash flows from operating activities, temporary increases in short-term borrowings and existing cash and cash equivalents are expected to provide the funds needed for the net capital expenditures in 2017, to pay down commercial paper or other short-term borrowings, as well as to fund any unanticipated expenditures not included in the 2017 forecast (such as increases in the costs or acceleration of capital projects or unanticipated capital expenditures that may be required by new environmental laws and regulations).


Bank
  Three months ended September 30 Increase  
(in millions) 2017 2016 (decrease) Primary reason(s)
Interest income $59
 $55
 $4
 The increase in interest income was the result of a higher average investment securities portfolio balance and an increase in yields on earning assets. ASB’s average loan portfolio balance for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by $68 million compared to the same period in 2016 as increases in average consumer and home equity lines of credit balances of $54 million and $31 million, respectively, were more than offset by a decrease in commercial loan balances of $132 million. The decrease in the average commercial loan balance was primarily due to a decrease in the syndicated national credit loan portfolio and paydowns in the commercial loan portfolio. The yield on earning assets increased by 8 basis points due to the repricing of the adjustable rate loans with the increase in the interest rate environment and a shift in the mix of the loan portfolio with the growth in the consumer loan portfolio, which resulted in an increase in the loan portfolio yield of 20 basis points. The average investment securities portfolio balance increased by $378 million due to the use of excess liquidity to purchase investments. The yield on the investment securities portfolio increased by 8 basis points as new investment purchase yields were higher due to the increase in short-term interest rates.
Noninterest income 15
 19
 (4) Noninterest income decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2016 due to lower mortgage banking income. Prior year’s noninterest income included a gain on sale of real estate with no similar sale in 2017.
Revenues 74

Interest expense 3
 3
 
 Interest expense was flat for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as higher interest expense from the growth in term certificates was offset by lower interest expense on other borrowings as a result of lower repurchase agreements and FHLB advances. Average deposit balances for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $392 million compared to the same period in 2016 due to an increase in core deposits and term certificates of $303 million and $89 million, respectively. Other borrowings decreased by $105 million primarily due to a decrease in repurchase agreements and FHLB advances of $72 million and $33 million, respectively. The interest-bearing liability rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by 5 basis points compared to the same period in 2016.
Provision for loan losses 1
 6
 (5) The provision for loan losses decreased by $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The provision for loan losses for 2017 was primarily due to increased loan loss reserves for the consumer loan portfolio partly offset by the release of reserves for the commercial real estate and syndicated national credit loan portfolios due to loan paydowns and sales as the Bank strategically worked to improve commercial asset quality. The provision for loan losses for 2016 was primarily due to increased reserves for growth in the loan portfolio, additional loan loss reserves for the consumer loan portfolio and loan loss reserves for commercial loans due to downgrades of specific commercial credits. Delinquency rates have increased from 0.51% at September 30, 2016 to 0.60% at September 30, 2017. The annualized net charge-off ratio for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was 0.32% compared to an annualized net charge-off ratio of 0.20% for the same period in 2016. The increase in net charge-offs were due to an increase in consumer loan portfolio charge-offs as a result of ASB’s strategic expansion of its unsecured consumer loan product offering with risk-based pricing.
Noninterest expense 44
 42
 2
 The increase in noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to higher compensation and employee benefits expenses as a result of higher performance-based compensation costs and higher employee benefit costs.

(in millions) 2017 2016 (decrease) Primary reason(s)
Interest income $176
 $163
 $13
 The increase in interest income was the result of higher average earning asset balances and an increase in yields on earning assets. ASB’s average loan portfolio balance for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $17 million compared to the same period in 2016 as average consumer, commercial real estate and home equity lines of credit balances increased by $58 million, $48 million and $23 million, respectively. The growth in these loan portfolios was reflective of ASB’s portfolio mix target and loan growth strategy. The average commercial loan balance decreased by $103 million primarily due to a decrease in the syndicated national credit loan portfolio. The yield on earning assets increased by 7 basis points due to a shift in the mix of the loan portfolio with the growth in the commercial real estate and consumer loan portfolios and repricing of the adjustable rate loans with the increase in the interest rate environment, which resulted in an increase in loan portfolio yields of 17 basis points. The average investment securities portfolio balance increased by $358 million due to the use of excess liquidity to purchase investments. The yield on the investment securities portfolio increased by 9 basis points as new investment purchase yields were higher due to the increase in short-term interest rates.
Noninterest income 47
 50
 (3) Noninterest income decreased slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 due to lower mortgage banking income. Prior year’s noninterest income included gains on sales of securities and a gain on sale of real estate with no similar sales in 2017.

 (1) Interest expense was lower for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as higher interest expense from the growth in term certificates was more than offset by lower interest expense on other borrowings as a result of lower repurchase agreements and FHLB advances. Average deposit balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $471 million compared to the same period in 2016 due to an increase in core deposits and term certificates of $334 million and $137 million, respectively. Other borrowings decreased by $102 million primarily due to a decrease in repurchase agreements. The interest-bearing liability rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by 3 basis points compared to the same period in 2016.
Provision for loan losses 7
 15
 (8) The provision for loan losses decreased by $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2017 was primarily due to increased loan loss reserves for the consumer loan portfolio partly offset by the release of reserves for the commercial real estate and syndicated national credit loan portfolios due to lower outstanding balances and improved credit quality. The provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2016 was primarily due to increased reserves for growth in the loan portfolio, additional loan loss reserves for the consumer loan portfolio and loan loss reserves for commercial loans due to downgrades of specific commercial credits. Delinquency rates have increased from 0.51% at September 30, 2016 to 0.60% at September 30, 2017. The annualized net charge-off ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was 0.27% compared to an annualized net charge-off ratio of 0.19% for the same period in 2016. The increase in net charge-offs for the first nine months of 2017 was due to an increase in consumer loan portfolio charge-offs as a result of ASB’s strategic expansion of its unsecured consumer loan product offering with risk-based pricing.
Noninterest expense 131

 The increase in noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to higher compensation and employee benefits expenses as a result of higher performance-based compensation costs and higher employee benefit costs.

Defined as net interest income as a percentage of average total interest-earning assets.
Earning assets, costing liabilities and other factors.  Earnings of ASB depend primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on earning assets and interest paid on costing liabilities. The interest rate environment has been impacted by disruptions in the financial markets over a period of several years. These conditions have begun to moderate with the interest rate increases in the past year which resulted in an increase in ASB’s net interest income and net interest margin.
Loan originations and mortgage-related securities are ASB’s primary earning assets.


Loan portfolio.  ASB’s loan volumes and yields are affected by market interest rates, competition, demand for financing, availability of funds and management’s responses to these factors. The composition of ASB’s loans receivable was as follows:

Home equity— key credit statistics. Attention has been given by regulators and rating agencies to the potential for increased exposure to credit losses associated with home equity lines of credit (HELOC) that were originated during the period of rapid home price appreciation between 2003 and 2007 as they have reached, or are starting to reach, the end of their 10-year, interest only payment periods. Once the interest only payment period has ended, payments are reset to include principal repayments along with interest. ASB does not have a large exposure to HELOCs originated between 2003 and 2007. Nearly all of the HELOC originations prior to 2008 consisted of amortizing equity lines that have structured principal payments during the draw period. These older equity lines represent 1% of the portfolio and are included in the amortizing balances identified in the loan portfolio table below.

The HELOC portfolio comprised 19% of the total loan portfolio and is generally an interest-only revolving loan for a 10-year period, after which time the HELOC outstanding balance converts to a fully amortizing variable rate term loan with a 20-year amortization period. This product type comprises 79% of the total HELOC portfolio and is the current product offering. Borrowers also have a “Fixed Rate Loan Option” to convert a part of their available line of credit into a 5, 7 or 10-year fully amortizing fixed rate loan with level principal and interest payments. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 20% of the portfolio balances were amortizing loans under the Fixed Rate Loan Option.

Principal and interest on mortgage-related securities issued by Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) and Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) are guaranteed by the issuer and, in the case of GNMA, backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
Deposits and other borrowings.  Deposits continue to be the largest source of funds for ASB and are affected by market interest rates, competition and management’s responses to these factors. Deposit retention and growth will remain challenging in the current environment due to competition for deposits and the low level of short-term interest rates. Advances from the FHLB of Des Moines and securities sold under agreements to repurchase continue to be additional sources of funds. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, ASB’s costing liabilities consisted of 97% deposits and 3% other borrowings. The weighted average cost of deposits for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016 was 0.16% and 0.13%, respectively.
Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, ASB had $50 million and $100 million of advances outstanding at the FHLB of Des Moines. The decrease in advances outstanding was due to the payoff of a maturing FHLB advance. As of September 30, 2017, the unused borrowing capacity with the FHLB of Des Moines was $1.9 billion. The FHLB of Des Moines continues to be an important source of liquidity for ASB.
Other factors.  Interest rate risk is a significant risk of ASB’s operations and also represents a market risk factor affecting the fair value of ASB’s investment securities. Increases and decreases in prevailing interest rates generally translate into decreases and increases in the fair value of the investment securities, respectively. In addition, changes in credit spreads also impact the fair values of the investment securities.
As of September 30, 2017, ASB had an unrealized loss, net of taxes, on available-for-sale investment securities (including securities pledged for repurchase agreements) in AOCI of $5.5 million compared to an unrealized loss, net of taxes, of $7.9 million at December 31, 2016. See “Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk” for a discussion of ASB’s interest rate risk sensitivity.
During the first nine months of 2017, ASB recorded a provision for loan losses of $7.2 million primarily due to increased loan loss reserves for the consumer loan portfolio partly offset by the release of reserves for the commercial real estate and syndicated national credit loan portfolios due to lower outstanding balances and improved credit quality. During the first nine months of 2016, ASB recorded a provision for loan losses of $15.3 million primarily due to increased loss reserves for growth in the loan portfolio, additional loan loss reserves for the consumer loan portfolio and loan loss reserves for commercial loans due to downgrades of specific commercial credits. Financial stress on ASB’s customers may result in higher levels of delinquencies and losses.

We maintain a reserve for credit losses that consists of two components, the allowance for loan losses and a reserve for unfunded loan commitments (unfunded reserve). The level of the reserve for unfunded loan commitments is adjusted by recording an expense or recovery in other noninterest expense. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was $1.7 million.
Legislation and regulation.  ASB is subject to extensive regulation, principally by the OCC and the FDIC. Depending on ASB’s level of regulatory capital and other considerations, these regulations could restrict the ability of ASB to compete with other institutions and to pay dividends to its shareholder. See the discussion below under “Liquidity and capital resources.”


Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act).  Regulation of the financial services industry, including regulation of HEI, ASB Hawaii and ASB, has changed and will continue to change as a result of the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, which became law in July 2010. Importantly for HEI, ASB Hawaii and ASB, under the Dodd-Frank Act all of the functions of the Office of Thrift Supervision transferred on July 21, 2011 to the OCC, the FDIC, the FRB and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (Bureau). Supervision and regulation of HEI and ASB Hawaii, as thrift holding companies, moved to the FRB, and supervision and regulation of ASB, as a federally chartered savings bank, moved to the OCC. While the laws and regulations applicable to HEI and ASB did not generally change, the applicable laws and regulations are being interpreted, and new and amended regulations may be adopted, by the FRB, the OCC and the Bureau. In addition, HEI will continue to be required to serve as a source of strength to ASB in the event of its financial distress. The Dodd-Frank Act also imposed new restrictions on the ability of a savings bank to pay dividends should it fail to remain a qualified thrift lender.
More stringent affiliate transaction rules now apply to ASB in the securities lending, repurchase agreement and derivatives areas. Standards were raised with respect to the ability of ASB to merge with or acquire another institution. In reviewing a potential merger or acquisition, the approving federal agency will need to consider the extent to which the proposed transaction will result in “greater or more concentrated risks to the stability of the U.S. banking or financial system.”
The Dodd-Frank Act established the Bureau. It has authority to prohibit practices it finds to be unfair, deceptive or abusive, and it may also issue rules requiring specified disclosures and the use of new model forms. On January 10, 2013, the Bureau issued the Ability-to-Repay rule which closed for comment on February 25, 2013. For mortgages, among other things, (i) potential borrowers have to supply financial information, and lenders must verify it, (ii) to qualify for a particular loan, a consumer has to have sufficient assets or income to pay back the loan and (iii) lenders have to determine the consumer’s ability to repay both the principal and the interest over the long term - not just during an introductory period when the rate may be lower.
ASB may also be subject to new state regulation because of a provision in the Dodd-Frank Act that acknowledges that a federal savings bank may be subject to state regulation and allows federal law to preempt a state consumer financial law on a “case by case” basis only when (1) the state law would have a discriminatory effect on the bank compared to that on a bank chartered in that state, (2) the state law prevents or significantly interferes with a bank’s exercise of its power or (3) the state law is preempted by another federal law.
The Dodd-Frank Act also adopts a number of provisions that impact the mortgage industry, including the imposition of new specific duties on the part of mortgage originators (such as ASB) to act in the best interests of consumers and to take steps to ensure that consumers will have the capability to repay loans they may obtain, as well as provisions imposing new disclosure requirements and requiring appraisal reforms.
Also, the Dodd-Frank Act directs the Bureau to publish rules and forms that combine certain disclosures that consumers receive in connection with applying for and closing on a mortgage loan under the Truth in Lending Act and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act. Consistent with this requirement, the Bureau amended Regulation X (Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act) and Regulation Z (Truth in Lending) to establish new disclosure requirements and forms in Regulation Z for most closed-end consumer credit transactions secured by real property. In addition to combining the existing disclosure requirements and implementing new requirements, the final rule provides extensive guidance regarding compliance with those requirements. This rule was effective October 3, 2015.
The “Durbin Amendment” to the Dodd-Frank Act required the FRB to issue rules to ensure that debit card interchange fees are “reasonable and proportional” to the processing costs incurred. In June 2011, the FRB issued a final rule establishing standards for debit card interchange fees and prohibiting network exclusivity arrangements and routing restrictions. Under the final rule, effective October 1, 2011, the maximum permissible interchange fee that an issuer may receive for an electronic debit transaction is 21-24 cents, depending on certain components. Financial institutions and their affiliates that have less than $10 billion in assets are exempt from this Amendment; however, on July 1, 2013, ASB became non-exempt as the consolidated assets of HEI exceeded $10 billion. The debit card interchange fees received by ASB have been lower as a result of the application of this Amendment.
Final Capital Rules.  On July 2, 2013, the FRB finalized its rule implementing the Basel III regulatory capital framework. The final rule would apply to banking organizations of all sizes and types regulated by the FRB and the OCC, except bank holding companies subject to the FRB’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement and Savings & Loan Holding Companies (SLHCs) substantially engaged in insurance underwriting or commercial activities. HEI currently meets the requirements of the exemption as a top-tier grandfathered unitary SLHC that derived, as of June 30 of the previous calendar year, either 50% or more of its total consolidated assets or 50% or more of its total revenues on an enterprise-wide basis (calculated under GAAP) from activities that are not financial in nature pursuant to Section 4(k) of the Bank Holding Company Act. The FRB is temporarily excluding these SLHCs from the final rule while it considers a proposal relating to capital and other requirements for SLHC intermediate holding companies (such as ASB Hawaii). The FRB indicated that it would release a proposal on intermediate holding companies that would specify the criteria for establishing and transferring activities to intermediate holding


companies and propose to apply the FRB’s capital requirements to such intermediate holding companies. The FRB has not yet issued such a proposal, or a proposal on how to apply the Basel III capital rules to SLHCs that are substantially engaged in commercial or insurance underwriting activities, such as grandfathered unitary SLHCs like HEI.
Pursuant to the final rule and consistent with the proposals, all banking organizations, including covered holding companies, would initially be subject to the following minimum regulatory capital requirements: a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6%, a total capital ratio of 8% of risk-weighted assets and a tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%, and these requirements would increase in subsequent years. In order to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, the final rule requires a banking organization to hold a buffer of common equity tier 1 capital above its minimum capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets (capital conservation buffer). In addition, a countercyclical capital buffer would expand the capital conservation buffer by up to 2.5% of a banking organization’s total risk-weighted assets for advanced approaches banking organizations. The final rule would establish qualification criteria for common equity, additional tier 1 and tier 2 capital instruments that help to ensure their ability to absorb losses. All banking organizations would be required to calculate risk-weighted assets under the standardized approach, which harmonizes the banking agencies’ calculation of risk-weighted assets and address shortcomings in capital requirements identified by the agencies. The phased-in effective dates of the capital requirements under the final rule are:
Minimum Capital Requirements
Effective dates 1/1/2015 1/1/2016 1/1/2017 1/1/2018 1/1/2019
Capital conservation buffer  
 0.625% 1.25% 1.875% 2.50%
Common equity Tier-1 ratio + conservation buffer 4.50% 5.125% 5.75% 6.375% 7.00%
Tier-1 capital ratio + conservation buffer 6.00% 6.625% 7.25% 7.875% 8.50%
Total capital ratio + conservation buffer 8.00% 8.625% 9.25% 9.875% 10.50%
Tier-1 leverage ratio 4.00% 4.00% 4.00% 4.00% 4.00%
Countercyclical capital buffer — not applicable to ASB  
 0.625% 1.25% 1.875% 2.50%
The final rule was effective January 1, 2015 for ASB. As of September 30, 2017, ASB met the new capital requirements with a Common equity Tier-1 ratio of 12.7%, a Tier-1 capital ratio of 12.7%, a Total capital ratio of 13.9% and a Tier-1 leverage ratio of 8.7%.
Subject to the timing and final outcome of the FRB’s SLHC intermediate holding company proposal, HEI anticipates that the capital requirements in the final rule will eventually be effective for HEI or ASB Hawaii as well. If the fully phased-in capital requirements were currently applicable to HEI, management believes HEI would satisfy the capital requirements, including the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer. Management cannot predict what final rule the FRB may adopt concerning intermediate holding companies or their impact on ASB Hawaii, if any.
Military Lending Act. The Department of Defense (DOD) amended its regulation that implements the Military Lending Act (MLA), which became effective on October 3, 2016. The DOD amended its regulation primarily for the purpose of extending the protections of the MLA to a broader range of closed-end and open-end credit products. It initially applied to three narrowly-defined “consumer credit” products: closed-end payday loans; closed-end auto title loans; and closed-end tax refund anticipation loans. The DOD revised the scope of the definition of ‘‘consumer credit’’ to be generally consistent with the credit products that have been subject to the requirements of the Regulation Z, namely: credit offered or extended to a covered borrower primarily for personal, family or household purposes and that is (i) subject to a finance charge or (ii) payable by a written agreement in more than four installments.
Additionally, the DOD elected to exercise its discretion by generally requiring any fees for credit insurance products or for credit-related ancillary products to be included in the Military Annual Percentage Rate. The DOD also modified the disclosures that a creditor must provide to a covered borrower and implemented the enforcement provisions of the MLA. ASB has modified certain products, practices and associated training to conform to these changes.
Overtime Rules. The Secretary of Labor updated the overtime regulations of the Fair Labor Standards Act to simplify and modernize them. The Department of Labor issued final rules that will raise the salary threshold indicating eligibility from $455/week to $913/week ($47,476 per year), and update automatically the salary threshold every three years, based on wage growth over time, increasing predictability. The final rule was to become effective on December 1, 2016. In late-November 2016 however, the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Texas granted a nationwide preliminary injunction that blocked the final rule, saying the Department of Labor's rule exceeds the authority the agency was delegated by Congress. Despite this block, ASB modified its salaries in the fourth quarter of 2016 such that it is in voluntary compliance with the final rule. On July 26, 2017, the Department of Labor published a Request for Information Defining and Delimiting the Exemptions for Executive, Administrative, Professional, Outside Sales and Computer Employees. On August 31, 2017, U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Texas


granted summary judgment against the Department of Labor in consolidated cases challenging the final rule published on May 23, 2016. The court held that the final rule’s salary level exceeded the Department of Labor’s authority and concluded that the final rule was invalid.
Arbitration Agreements. Pursuant to section 1028(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act, on July 19, 2017, the Bureau issued a final rule to regulate arbitration agreements in contracts for specified consumer financial product and services. First, the final rule prohibits covered providers of certain consumer financial products and services from using an agreement with a consumer that provides for arbitration of any future dispute between the parties to bar the consumer from filing or participating in a class action concerning the covered consumer financial product or service. Second, the final rule requires covered providers that are involved in arbitration pursuant to a pre-dispute arbitration agreement to submit specified arbitral records to the Bureau and also to submit specified court records. The compliance date for this regulation is March 19, 2018. Under the Congressional Review Act, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to overturn the final rule on July 25, 2017, and the U.S. Senate did the same on October 24, 2017. On November 1, 2017, the President signed the repeal of the final rule. ASB is currently evaluating the impact of these events on its affected agreements.

  In August 2023, the credit ratings of HEI and Hawaiian Electric were subject to multiple downgrades, including to ratings below investment grade, by Fitch, Moody’s and S&P. These rating actions were primarily due to the uncertainty facing the Company due to the damages caused by the Maui windstorm and wildfires. As of September 30, 2023, the Fitch, Moody’s and S&P ratings of HEI were as follows:

*     Not rated. Moody’s long-term debt rating was withdrawn because HEI does not currently have any outstanding, publicly traded debt. Moody’s continues to rate Hawaiian Electric’s long-term debt. See “Electric utility-Liquidity and capital resources” below.
Note: The above ratings reflect only the view, at the time the ratings are issued or affirmed, of the applicable rating agency, from whom an explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained. Such ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any securities; such ratings may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agencies; and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.
See “Credit and Capital Market Risk” in Item 1A. Risk Factors in HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s 2022 Form 10-K and in Item 1A. Risk Factors below. The downgrades of HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s credit ratings impacted the Company’s ability to access capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms.
The Company’s objective continues to be to operate a strong, financially healthy enterprise to empower a thriving future for Hawaii. While the fundamentals of its businesses remain strong, the Company took prudent and measured actions to reinforce its commitment to serving the community for the long term. In August 2023, HEI and Hawaiian Electric fully drew down $175 million and $200 million, respectively, on their existing revolving credit facilities. The cash proceeds were primarily invested in highly liquid short-term investments and used for general corporate purposes. The Company has taken additional prudent measures to strengthen its financial position while continuing to provide reliable service to its customers and reinforcing our commitment to serving the community for the long term. Some of these proactive measures include suspending the quarterly cash dividend on HEI’s common stock after payment of the second quarter dividend in September 2023 and reducing or eliminating discretionary costs. The Company is working with financial advisors to help ensure adequate liquidity and believes it has adequate cash to meet its financial obligations and sustain operations.
At the end of the quarter, HEI and Hawaiian Electric had no commercial paper outstanding. As of September 30, 2023, ASB’s unused FHLB borrowing capacity was approximately $1.9 billion and ASB had unpledged investment securities of $0.5 billion that were available to be used as collateral for additional borrowing capacity.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the total amount of available borrowing capacity (net of commercial paper outstanding) under the Company’s committed lines of credit was nil and approximately $237 million, respectively.
On March 16, 2023, HEI executed a private placement under which HEI authorized the issue and sale of $100 million of unsecured senior notes that were fully drawn on May 30, 2023. The proceeds of the notes, HEI Series 2023A for $39 million and HEI Series 2023B for $61 million, were used to repay the $100 million term loan facility on May 31, 2023. The HEI Series 2023A and 2023B bear interest at 6.04% and 6.10%, respectively and are due June 15, 2028 and June 15, 2033, respectively. See Note 6 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents and expected operating cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements in the near term based on its current business plans. However, the Company expects that its liquidity will continue to be impacted at HEI and the Utilities due to the impacts of the Maui windstorm and wildfires, including the downgrade of its credit ratings to below investment grade, which could inhibit access to the capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms while the resolution of the Maui windstorm and wildfires and the ongoing related lawsuits are pending. Additionally, higher working capital requirements resulting from lingering COVID-19 impacts to the local economy and elevated fuel prices, could also increase liquidity needs. For the Utilities, while fuel prices have moderated from their highs in 2022, they remain elevated and have increased the cost of carrying fuel inventory and higher customer accounts receivable balances as fuel is consumed and billed to customers. While the accounts receivable balance has decreased since December 2022, it remains elevated coming out of the pandemic and has led to higher bad debt expense and higher write-offs in 2022 and year-to-date September 2023, following the end of the moratorium on disconnections. The higher bad debt expense is expected to continue until the Utilities return to pre-pandemic collection practices, along with a decrease in volume, for delinquent accounts. The Maui windstorm and
68


wildfires have not and are not anticipated to materially impact accounts receivable and higher bad debt expense. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $32.1 million of the Utilities’ accounts receivables were over 30 days past due. Of the over 30 days past due amounts, approximately 40% were on payment plans. In addition to the cash flow impact from delayed collection of accounts receivable, lower kWh sales relative to the level of kWh sales approved in the last rate case generally result in delayed timing of cash flows, resulting in higher working capital requirements (see “Recent Developments” in the Electric utility section below). At this time, the delay in customer cash collections has not significantly affected the Company’s liquidity. The Company is prepared to address, if needed, the potential financing requirement related to the delayed timing of customer collections.
At ASB, liquidity remains at satisfactory levels. ASB’s cash and cash equivalents was $264 million as of September 30, 2023, compared to $156 million as of December 31, 2022. ASB remains well above the “well capitalized” level under the FDIC Improvement Act prompt correction action capital category, and while the Hawaii economic outlook remains stable, there are emerging risks from potential continued turmoil in the banking industry, inflation, higher interest rates and the tightening of monetary policy that increase the risk of a recession, which could create increased uncertainty regarding the impact on loan performance and the allowance for credit losses (see “Recent Developments” in the Bank section below).
If further liquidity is deemed necessary, the Utilities could also reduce the pace of capital spending related to non-essential projects, manage O&M expenses, borrow on a secured basis, and explore asset sales.
HEI Consolidated material cash requirements.Material cash requirements of HEI Consolidated include: Utility capital expenditures (including capital expenditures related to wildfires and wildfire mitigations), labor and benefit costs, O&M expenses, including One ‘Ohana Initiative contribution (see further information in Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), legal and consulting costs related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, fuel and purchase power costs, and debt and interest payments; investments in loans and investment securities at the Bank; labor and benefits costs, shareholder dividends and debt and interest payments at HEI, legal and consulting costs related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires and HEI equity contributions to support Pacific Current’s sustainable infrastructure investments.
Although the Company’s credit rating downgrades related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires will continue to adversely impact its ability to access capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms, the Company currently believes that its ability to generate cash, both internally from electric utility and banking operations and the existing cash fully drawn on its revolving credit facilities is adequate to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund its contractual obligations and commercial commitments, its forecasted capital expenditures and investments, its expected retirement benefit plan contributions and other short-term and long-term material cash requirements. However, the economic impact of higher fuel prices, inflation, higher interest rates, tightening of monetary policy, the lingering COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical situations, any material reduction or extended delay in dividends or other distributions from one or more operating subsidiaries to HEI and the potential damages and losses related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires and related lawsuits (see further information in Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), create significant uncertainty, and the Company cannot predict the extent or duration of these conditions, the future effects that these conditions will have on the Company’s cost of capital and its ability to access additional capital, or the future impacts on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Note:This table does not include Hawaiian Electric’s separate commercial paper issuances and line of credit facilities and draws, which are disclosed below under “Electric utility—Financial Condition—Liquidity and capital resources.” The maximum amount of HEI’s short-term commercial paper borrowings during the first nine months of 2023 was $99 million. As of September 30, 2023, available committed capacity under HEI’s line of credit facility was nil.
There were no new issuances of common stock through the HEIRSP or the ASB 401(k) Plan in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. HEI satisfied the share purchase requirements of the Dividend Reinvestment Program (DRIP) through new issuances of approximately 0.5 million shares of common stock, amounting to $5.8 million, primarily for participants receiving the September 2023 dividend payment.
For the first nine months of 2023, net cash provided by operating activities of HEI consolidated was $475 million, primarily due to cash provided by the Utilities of $406 million - lower cash paid due to lower fuel oil prices and higher Utility customer cash receipts. Net cash used by investing activities for the same period was $370 million, primarily due to capital expenditures, ASB’s net increase in loans receivable and purchases of loans held for investment, partly offset by ASB’s receipt of investment security repayments and maturities, proceeds from the sale of commercial loans and a net decrease in FHLB stock. Net cash provided by financing activities during this period was $372 million as a result of several factors, including issuance of long-term debt and net increase in ASB’s other bank borrowings, partly offset by net decreases in short-term borrowings and ASB’s deposit liabilities, repayment of long-term debt and payment of common stock dividends. During the first nine months of 2023, Hawaiian Electric and ASB (through ASB Hawaii) paid cash dividends to HEI of $97 million and $39 million, respectively.
Dividends.  The payout ratios for the first nine months of 2023 and full year 2022 were 79% and 64%, respectively. On February 10, 2023, the HEI Board of Directors approved a 1 cent increase in the quarterly dividend from $0.35 per share to $0.36 per share, starting with the dividend in the first quarter of 2023. The HEI Board of Directors evaluates the dividend quarterly and considers many factors in the evaluation including, but not limited to, the Company’s results of operations, the long-term prospects for the Company, current and expected future economic conditions, and capital investment alternatives. In August 2023, due to the potential impact from the Maui windstorm and wildfires, the HEI Board of Directors voted to suspend the quarterly cash dividend, starting after the second quarter dividend. This action is intended to allow the Company to help ensure adequate liquidity and allocate cash to rebuilding and restoring power and help ensure a strong future for the Utility and Bank. The ASB Board of Directors determined to suspend its quarterly cash dividends to HEI, starting after the second quarter dividend, to help ensure maximum possible Bank liquidity and capital. A material reduction or delay in dividends or other
distributions from one or more of the operating subsidiaries to HEI for an extended period of time could have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operation.

MATERIAL ESTIMATES AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
In accordance with SEC Release No. 33-8040, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies,” management has identified the accounting policies it believes to be the most critical to the Company’s financial statements—that is, management believes that these policies are both the most important to the portrayal of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition, and currently require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments.
For information about these material estimates and critical accounting policies, in addition to the critical policy discussed below, see pages 44 to 45, 64, and 77 to 78 of the MD&A included in Part II, Item 7 of HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s 2022 Form 10-K.
Following are discussions of the results of operations, liquidity and capital resources of the electric utility and bank segments.

Electric utility
Recent developments. See also “Recent developments,” which includes disclosures relating to Maui windstorm and wildfires in HEI’s MD&A.
In the third quarter of 2023, operation and maintenance expenses were higher by approximately $21 million, or 18%, as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was mainly due to costs incurred associated with the Maui windstorm and wildfires. See “Result of Operations” for details of the Utilities’ Maui windstorm and wildfires related expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. See also Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and “Regulatory assets and liabilities” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires and the Utilities’ request to defer certain costs associated with the event.
In the third quarter of 2023, kWh sales volume decreased 2.5% compared to the same period in 2022. Although electricity prices have decreased since the end of 2022, elevated prices over the past year have continued to impact electricity consumption. Another impact leading to a decrease of electricity sales is due to the Maui windstorm and wildfires. Maui had a decrease of 8.1% kWh sales volume in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Additionally, the continued adoption of energy efficiency measures and distributed energy resources contributed to the reduction of kWh sales.
Fuel costs have risen rapidly beginning in 2022, peaked in the summer of 2022, and have decreased through July 2023 and since then, gradually increased through September, although remaining below 2022’s peak. Although the Utilities are able to pass through fuel costs to customers and have limited fuel cost exposure through a 2% fuel-cost risk sharing mechanism (approximately $3.7 million maximum exposure annually), higher customer bills could reduce customers’ ability to pay timely or increase the risk of non-payment. In addition, the higher customer bills may lead the PUC to consider other actions to limit or delay any proposed increase in rates in order to mitigate the overall bill impact of rising fuel prices.
In September 2023, the consumer price index moderated to 3.7% from a peak of 9.1% in June 2022. In Hawaii, the September 2023 Urban Hawaii (Honolulu) Consumer Price Index (CPI) also declined from its peak, with an increase of 2.2% over the last 12 months. Under the PBR framework, inflation risk for the Utilities is partially mitigated by an Annual Rate Adjustment (ARA), which is based on a formula that includes a compounded and non-compounded portion.
The compounded portion of the ARA adjustment includes an adjustment for the annual change in inflation based on the estimated change in Gross Domestic Product Price Index (GDPPI) for the upcoming year, less a predetermined annual productivity factor (currently set at zero), less a 0.22% customer dividend, applied to a basis equal to test year target revenues plus the RAM Revenue adjustments in effect prior to the implementation of PBR, plus the prior adjustment year’s compounded portion of the ARA adjustment. The inflation factor percentage is the consensus projection of annual percentage change in GDPPI for the following calendar year published by Blue Chip Economic Indicators each October. For the 2023 calendar year, the forecasted 2023 GDPPI was 3.68% (net of the 0.22% customer dividend), measured in October 2022, and became effective in rates on January 1, 2023. For the 2024 calendar year, the forecasted 2024 GDPPI was 2.18% (net of the 0.22% customer dividend), measured in October 2023, and is scheduled to be effective in rates on January 1, 2024, pending PUC approval.
The non-compounded portion of the ARA adjustment includes a subtractive component, representing the management audit savings commitment, or refund to customers, which was approved by the PUC for the years 2021 through 2025.
Customer accounts receivable decreased in 2023 by $47 million, or 16% with the number of accounts past due decreasing by 17% since December 31, 2022. The decrease in accounts receivables was primarily driven by payment on a large delinquent commercial customer account, lower customer bills resulting from lower fuel prices, receipt of government and other program assistance, and higher cash receipts associated with increased disconnection efforts. At this time, while accounts receivable balances continue to remain elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels, partly due to higher fuel prices, the decrease in accounts receivable balances since the beginning of the year has reduced working capital requirements and benefited the Utilities’ liquidity. See “Financial Condition—Liquidity and capital resources” for additional information.
In the second quarter of 2020, the PUC approved the deferral of certain COVID-19 related costs, such as higher bad debt expense, higher financing costs, non-collection of late payment fees, increased personal protective equipment costs, and sequestration costs for mission-critical employees. The Utilities deferred COVID-19 related costs through a PUC approved period that ended on December 31, 2021. In the second quarter of 2022, the Utilities filed an application to seek recovery of the COVID-19 deferred costs, not to exceed the amount of $27.8 million. On July 31, 2023, the Utilities submitted their most recent Supplemental Report to the PUC, reflecting the updated requested amount, as of June 30, 2023, of $9.1 million, which was a decrease from the original requested amount due to cash collections on past due accounts.As of September 30, 2023, due to ongoing collection of past due amounts, the Utilities have recorded $8.8 million in regulatory assets for deferral of COVID-19 related costs. (See discussion under “Regulatory assets and liabilities - Regulatory assets for COVID-19 related costs” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Regulatory Developments. On November 15, 2021, President Biden signed into law the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), which includes approximately $550 billion of new federal spending to be allocated over the next five years through various programs. The funding will help the State of Hawaii achieve its sustainability goals, including renewable energy, resilience, and decarbonization, while also prioritizing economic development, equity and affordability. The Utilities are pursuing potential grant funding of projects under various programs as primary applicant as well as in partnership with other organizations. On August 29, 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy notified Hawaiian Electric that its application for $95 million in federal funds under IIJA has been recommended for award, subject to negotiation of the terms of financial assistance. In addition, the Utilities have a second full application that is pending federal government agency decision. If both applications are awarded, it would allow for reduction up to $101 million in the Utilities’ recovery under the Exceptional Project Recovery Mechanism (EPRM) and cost to customers. See “Regulatory proceedings” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussions.
On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) that provides for $258 billion in energy-related provisions over a 10-year period. The provisions of the IRA are intended to, among other things, lower gasoline and electricity prices, incentivize clean energy investment and promote reductions in carbon emissions. The Utilities are exploring clean energy tax incentives included in the IRA that may further reduce the Utilities’ recovery under the EPRM and cost to customers.
The Utilities cannot predict the ultimate timing and success of securing funding from any federal government programs.
For a discussion regarding the impact of the Maui windstorm and wildfires on the Utilities’ liquidity and capital resources, see discussion under “Financial Condition–Liquidity and capital resources.”

3 kWh sales were lower compared to the same quarter in prior year. The decrease in sales can be attributed to elevated prices over the past year which continued to impact electricity consumption and Maui windstorm and wildfires which resulted in widespread damage to the Lahaina community. In addition, the continued adoption of energy efficiency measures and distributed energy resources contributed to the reduction in kWh sales.

The Utilities’ effective tax rate for the third quarters of 2023 and 2022 was 21%. The Utilities’ effective tax rates for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 were 22% and 21%, respectively. The effective rate was higher for the first nine months of
74


2023 primarily due to lower amortization in 2023 of the Utilities’ regulatory liability related to certain excess deferred income taxes resulting from the Tax Act’s decrease in the federal income tax rate.
Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated ROACE was 7.9% and 8.1% for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Utilities’ incremental expenses related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, which excludes the $75 million contribution and insurance receivable as discussed in Subsequent event - One ‘Ohana Initiative in Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, were as follows:
(in thousands)Three and nine months ended September 30, 2023
Hawaiian Electric Maui windstorm and wildfires related expenses:
Legal expense$6,251 
Outside services expense4,706 
Other expenses2,482 
Interest expense503
Total Hawaiian Electric Maui windstorm and wildfires related expenses$13,942 
Note: Utility Maui windstorm and wildfires related expenses - legal, outside services and other are included in “Other operation and maintenance” and interest expense is included in “Interest expense and other charges, net” on the Hawaiian Electric and subsidiaries Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Incremental expenses represent expenses that would not have been incurred if the Maui windstorm and wildfires did not occur, such as legal fees related to the incident.
In addition to higher O&M expenses related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, the Utilities incurred capital costs totaling approximately $8.0 million, related to the restoration effort.
Certain Maui windstorm and wildfires related expenses, such as legal fees related to the litigation, may be covered under the Company’s liability insurance. Any proceeds received from insurance recoveries will be recorded as a reduction of expense when probable and reasonably estimable.
The rebuilding of Lahaina will be a community-led effort and will occur over an extended period of time. The cost of rebuilding the electric utility infrastructure is not yet known, but could be significant because the infrastructure that may be required is expected to be different than what previously existed. For example, to mitigate wildfire risk, grid hardening strategies, such as undergrounding lines in high-risk locations, are expected to be employed.
The Utilities expect to continue to incur significant expenditures in connection with the Maui windstorm and wildfires; however, the Utilities expect to seek mitigation of the financial impact through insurance recoveries as well as requesting for deferral treatment, and eventually recovery, for incremental non-labor expense.
The net book value (cost less accumulated depreciation) of utility property, plant and equipment (PPE) as of September 30, 2023 amounted to $5.2 billion, of which approximately 24% related to generation PPE, 67% related to transmission and distribution PPE, and 9% related to other PPE. Approximately 7% of the total net book value relates to generation PPE that has been deactivated or that the Utilities plan to deactivate or decommission.
See “Economic conditions” in the “HEI Consolidated” section above.
Executive overview and strategy. The Utilities provide electricity on all the principal islands in the state, other than Kauai, to approximately 95% of the state’s population, and operate five separate grids. The Utilities’ mission is to provide innovative energy leadership for Hawaii, to meet the needs and expectations of customers and communities, and to empower them with affordable, reliable and clean energy. The goal is to create a safe, modern, resilient, flexible, and dynamic electric grid that protects Hawaii from impacts of climate change and enables an optimal mix of distributed energy resources, such as private rooftop solar, demand response, and grid-scale resources to enable the creation of smart, sustainable, resilient communities and achieve its decarbonization goals that are aligned with the statutory goal of 100% renewable energy by 2045.
Performance-based regulations. On December 23, 2020, the PUC issued a D&O (PBR D&O) approving a new performance-based regulation framework (PBR Framework). See “Regulatory proceedings” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Transition to a decarbonized and sustainable energy future. The Utilities are fully committed to leading and enabling
75


pathways to a decarbonized and sustainable energy future for Hawaii. A sustainable energy future is one that focuses on delivering electricity safely, reliably and affordably, strengthening resilience and shifting away from fossil-fueled resources. The Utilities believe that a holistic approach to climate change is needed, working on both climate mitigation efforts along with climate adaptation efforts. Climate mitigation requires achieving the Utilities’ decarbonization and renewable energy commitments, facilitating and promoting beneficial electrification, and deploying carbon removal and offsets among other levers to reduce statewide emissions.
In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Utilities outlined their Climate Action Plan to cut carbon emissions from power generation 70% by 2030, compared to a 2005 baseline. The emissions covered by this goal include stack emissions from generation owned by Hawaiian Electric and IPPs who sell electricity to the Utilities. Since that time, delays and cancellations in the commercial operation of new renewable third-party generation resources and higher costs as a result of supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures, as well as federal policies related to solar panel imports have slowed the pace of progress toward reducing GHG emissions. Also, see the “Developments in renewable energy efforts—New renewable PPAs” section below. The downgrade of Hawaiian Electric’s credit ratings after the Maui windstorm and wildfires is anticipated to be an additional impediment to completion of new renewable energy and storage projects. As a result of these challenges, the Utilities expect the planned 70% reduction in carbon emissions to be achieved later than the original 2030 target date. However, the Utilities will continue to replace significant amounts of fossil fuel generation with renewable energy between now and 2030 and expect to meet or exceed the State of Hawaii’s RPS goals.
Hawaiian Electric has also committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions from power generation by 2045 or sooner. While the timing of the Utilities’ carbon reduction goals will be adjusted, key elements of the 2030 plan have already been completed or remain on track to be completed by 2030, including the closure of the state’s last coal-fired IPP plant that occurred in September 2022, increasing rooftop solar by more than 50% over 2021 levels, retiring six fossil fuel generating units, increasing grid-scale and customer-owned storage, expanding geothermal resources, and creating customer incentives for using clean, lower-cost energy at certain times of the day and using less fossil-fueled energy at night. The retirement of fossil-fueled generating units is consistent with state policy and supported by Hawaii State law. See “Forecast of capital expenditures—Liquidity and capital resources” for a discussion of potential capital expenditures related to decarbonization efforts.
On September 1, 2022, the last coal-fired IPP plant in the state, providing approximately 10% of Oahu’s generation, ceased operations, removing a significant source of GHG emissions from the Utilities’ generation mix. In advance of the retirement of the coal-fired IPP plant, the Utilities developed plans, including contingency plans, to ensure reliable service through the transition period. These plans include the anticipated addition of renewable energy/storage projects, reserve capacity from existing generation sources, the acceleration of maintenance work during periods with anticipated higher reserve levels, and multiple demand response/DER programs. For example, a 39 MW solar-plus-storage project from Stage 1 renewable PPAs reached commercial operations in mid-2022 and a 36 MW Stage 1 solar-plus-storage project reached commercial operations in early 2023. It is expected that a 185 MW standalone storage facility from Stage 2 renewable PPAs will reach commercial operations by the end of December 2023.
Hawaii’s renewable portfolio standard law requires electric utilities to meet an RPS of 30%, 40%, 70% and 100% by December 31, 2020, 2030, 2040 and 2045, respectively. Hawaii law has also established a target of sequestering more atmospheric carbon and greenhouse gases than emitted within the state by 2045. The Utilities’ strategies and plans are fully aligned in meeting these targets (see also Integrated Grid Planningbelow).
The Utilities have made significant progress on the path to clean energy and have been successful in achieving RPS goals. To date the Utilities have met all of the statutory RPS goals, including exceeding the latest milestone RPS target of 30% for 2020, where it achieved an RPS of 34.5%. In July 2022, Governor Ige signed Act 240 (H.B.2089), that amended the RPS calculation from renewable energy as a percentage of sales to renewable energy as a percentage of total generation. The amended RPS calculation results in a lower calculated percentage than the amount calculated under the previous methodology. For example, the 2022 RPS achieved under the revised RPS calculation was 31.8% versus 39.1% under the prior method. The change in the definition is effective from July 2022 forward and will require that the Utilities acquire more renewable energy than under the previous RPS calculation to comply with the RPS milestones; however, the Utilities expect to continue to meet the RPS milestones under the amended RPS law. (See “Developments in renewable energy efforts” below).
If the Utilities are not successful in meeting the RPS targets as mandated by law, the PUC could assess a penalty of $20 for every MWh that an electric utility is deficient. Based on the level of total generation in 2022, a 1% shortfall in meeting the 2030 RPS requirement of 40% would translate into a penalty of approximately $2.1 million. The PUC has the discretion to reduce the penalty due to events or circumstances that are outside an electric utility’s reasonable control, to the extent the event or circumstance could not be reasonably foreseen and ameliorated. In addition to penalties under the RPS law, failure to meet the mandated RPS targets would be expected to result in a higher proportion of fossil fuel-based generation than if the RPS target had been achieved, which in turn would be expected to subject the Utilities to limited commodity fossil fuel price exposure under a fuel cost risk-sharing mechanism. The fuel cost risk-sharing mechanism apportions 2% of the fuel cost risk to the
76


utilities (and 98% to ratepayers) and has a maximum exposure (or benefit) of $3.7 million. Conversely, the Utilities have incentives under PIMs that provide a financial reward for accelerating the achievement of renewable generation as a percentage of total generation, including customer supplied generation. The Utilities may earn a reward for the amount of system generation above the interpolated statutory RPS goal at $20/MWh in 2022, $15/MWh in 2023, and $10/MWh for the remainder of the multi-year rate period.
The Utilities are fully aligned with, and supportive of, state policy to achieve a decarbonized future and have made significant progress in reducing emissions through renewable energy and electrification. This alignment with state policy is reflected in management compensation programs and the Utilities’ long-range plans, which include aspirational targets in order to catalyze action and accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels throughout its operations at a pace more rapid than dictated by current law. The long-range plans, including aspirational targets, serve as guiding principles in the Utilities’ continued transformation, and are updated regularly to adapt to changing technology, costs, and other factors. While there is no financial penalty for failure to achieve the Utilities’ long-range aspirational objectives, the Utilities recognize that there are environmental and social costs from the continued use of fossil fuels.
The State of Hawaii’s policy is supported by the regulatory framework and includes a number of mechanisms designed to maintain the Utilities’ financial stability during the transition toward the State’s decarbonized future. Under the sales decoupling mechanism, the Utilities are allowed to recover from customers, target test year revenues, independent of the level of kWh sales, which have generally trended lower over time as privately-owned DER have been added to the grid and energy efficiency measures have been put into place. Other regulatory mechanisms under the PBR framework reduce some of the regulatory lag during the multi-year rate plan (MRP), such as the annual revenue adjustment to provide annual changes in utility revenues, including inflationary adjustments, and the exceptional project recovery mechanism, which allows the Utilities to recover and earn on certain approved eligible projects placed into service. See “Regulatory proceedings” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Integrated Grid Planning. Achieving high levels of renewable energy and a carbon free electric system will require modernizing the grid through coordinated energy system planning in partnership with local communities and stakeholders. To accomplish this, the Utilities are implementing an innovative systems approach to energy planning intended to yield the most cost-effective renewable energy and decarbonization pathways that incorporates customer and stakeholder input.
The Integrated Grid Planning (IGP) process utilizes an inclusive and transparent stakeholder engagement model to provide an avenue for interested parties to engage with the Utilities and contribute meaningful input throughout the IGP process. The IGP Stakeholder Council, Technical Advisory Panel and Working groups have been established and meet regularly to provide feedback and input on specific issues and process steps in the IGP. On May 12, 2023, the Utilities submitted their final Integrated Grid Plan: A pathway to a clean energy future for stakeholder and public comments. The Integrated Grid Plan proposes actionable steps to decarbonize the electric grid on the State of Hawaii’s timeline, with a flexible framework that can adapt to future technologies. The Integrated Grid Plan is the culmination of more than five years of partnership with stakeholders and community members across the islands. Together, they forecasted future energy needs and identified strategies to meet Hawaii’s growing energy demand with 100% renewable resources.
Demand response programs. Pursuant to PUC orders, the Utilities are developing an integrated Demand Response (DR) Portfolio Plan that will enhance system operations and reduce costs to customers. The reduction in cost for the customer will take the form of either rates or incentive-based programs that will compensate customers for their participation individually, or by way of engagements with turnkey service providers that contract with the Utilities to aggregate and deliver various grid services on behalf of participating customers and their distributed assets.
On June 9, 2021, the PUC issued an order providing guidance to the third Grid Service RFP filed on February 23, 2021. The proposed Grid Service RFP focused only on Oahu and is seeking 132 MW of grid services with focus on capacity reduction (60 MW) similarly in response to the potential reserve shortfall from the AES coal plant retirement that occurred on September 1, 2022. The Utilities executed a GSPA for a total grid services amount of 97.4 MW and filed with the PUC to request approval on March 16, 2022. On July 12, 2023, the PUC approved the GSPA with modifications. The Utilities will work with an aggregator to amend the GSPA and submit to the PUC for approval by the fourth quarter of 2023.
On June 8, 2021, the PUC approved the new program, Emergency Demand Response Program (EDRP), a battery storage incentive program to dispatch electricity between 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. daily from participating residential and commercial customers, to address the potential reserve shortfalls following the AES coal plant retirement. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities have received and approved the applications totaling approximately 31.5 MW on Oahu.
On March 30, 2022, the Utilities filed with the PUC to request expanding the EDRP for up to 15 MW on the island of Maui and received PUC approval on May 20, 2022. The EDRP on Maui became effective as of June 1, 2022. Subsequently on June 23, 2022, the PUC approved the cost recovery of the additional incentives for both Oahu and Maui through the Demand Side

Management Surcharge. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities have received and approved the applications totaling approximately 5.0 MW on Maui.
On October 31, 2022, the PUC issued an order, directing the Utilities to solicit comments from all interested parties and stakeholders on the Utilities’ Draft Grid Services RFP filed on June 30, 2022. The proposed Draft Grid Services RFP focused only on Maui and is seeking 15 MW of grid services. Hawaiian Electric issued the RFP on February 1, 2023 and bids are due on December 1, 2023.
Grid modernization. The overall goal of the Grid Modernization Strategy is to deploy modern grid investments at an appropriate priority, sequence and pace to cost-effectively maximize flexibility, minimize the risk of redundancy and obsolescence, deliver customer benefits and enable greater DER and renewable energy integration. Under the Grid Modernization Strategy, the Utilities expect that new technology will help increase adoption of private rooftop solar and make use of rapidly evolving products, including storage and advanced inverters. On March 25, 2019, the PUC approved a plan for the Utilities to implement Phase 1 of their Grid Modernization Strategy, which is the proportional deployment of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). On February 28, 2022, the PUC expanded the scope of Phase 1 to the full service territory with a completion date set for the third quarter of 2024. The estimated cost of full deployment (including proportional deployment) is approximately $143 million in capital and deferred software cost and is expected to be incurred over five years. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $110 million of capital and deferred software cost has been incurred to date under Phase 1 and is currently being recovered under the MPIR mechanism until such costs are included in base rates. On June 24, 2022, the PUC approved with certain conditions the Utilities’ request to aggregate the per-meter and network cost caps and to recover O&M costs associated with full-service territory AMI deployment under the MPIR mechanism. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities have deployed about 319,000 advanced meters, servicing approximately 68% of total customers.
The Utilities filed an application with the PUC on September 30, 2019 for an Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) as part of Phase 2 of their Grid Modernization Strategy implementation. However, on December 30, 2019, the PUC suspended the Utilities’ application for the ADMS pending the Utilities’ filing of a supplemental application for the broad deployment of field devices. This supplement and update to the Grid Modernization Strategy Phase 2 field devices application was filed on March 31, 2021. A PUC order was issued on April 27, 2021, unsuspending and resuming consideration of the Phase 2 Application. The Utilities filed the reply statement of position on October 15, 2021, completing the discovery phase of the docket. On November 16, 2021, the PUC suspended the Utilities’ ADMS and Phase 2 field device application to focus the Utilities’ attention on completing Phase 1. The Utilities filed a Motion for Reconsideration with the PUC in response to the suspension, but the motion was denied. The PUC subsequently clarified that the Utilities may resume the Phase 2 docket no earlier than six months before Phase 1 is scheduled to be completed in the third quarter of 2024. Resumption of the Phase 2 proceeding would likely commence six months prior to the scheduled completion date selected by the PUC. On April 17, 2023, the Utilities filed a motion with the PUC, requesting the suspended docket to be reopened and to allow the Utilities to file an updated and supplemented application for updated project costs. The estimated cost for the implementation of Phase 2 over six years, which includes capital, deferred software costs and O&M costs, is $113 million. On May 3, 2023, the PUC granted the motion to resume the docket, and hosted a technical conference on the updated application on May 19, 2023. The Utilities filed the reply statement of position on September 28, 2023, completing the discovery phase of the docket.
Community-based renewable energy. In December 2017, the PUC adopted a community-based renewable energy (CBRE) program framework which allows customers who cannot, or chose not to, take advantage of private rooftop solar to receive the benefits of renewable energy to help offset their monthly electric bills and support clean energy for Hawaii. The program has two phases.
The first phase, which commenced in July 2018, totaling 8 MW of solar photovoltaic (PV) only with one credit rate for each island, closed on April 9, 2020. Two phase 1 projects (28.32 kW on Maui and 270 kW on Oahu) have been operational for two years and one Phase 1 project (3,000 kW on Oahu) achieved commercial operations on October 1, 2023. Two additional phase 1 projects expect to become operational in the fourth quarter of 2023 (Hawaii Island: 750kW and Molokai: 250kW).
The second phase, which commenced on April 9, 2020 and subsequently expanded on July 27, 2021, allows over 250 MW across all Hawaiian Electric service territories in two tranches for small (under 250 kW), mid-tier and large system sizes to encourage a variety of system sizes. To provide opportunities for low-to-moderate income (LMI) customers to participate in the program, 23 MW of capacity for dedicated-LMI projects were awarded on November 15, 2022 through three island specific RFPs for Oahu, Maui and Hawaii Island. LMI projects do not have a size cap nor do they decrease the 250 MW capacity available to other projects. The dedicated-LMI projects are expected to become operational in 2025.
The Utilities issued the CBRE Tranche 1 RFPs for Oahu, Maui and Hawaii on April 14, 2022. The RFPs closed on August 17, 2022, and proposals were evaluated. Tranche 1 projects, which are greater than or equal to 250 kW, were awarded on February 22, 2023. The Tranche 1 projects are expected to become operational in 2025 or 2026.

For Lanai, the Utilities combined the previously issued Variable Renewable Dispatchable Generation Paired with Energy Storage RFP and the CBRE RFP to optimize the benefits of procuring renewable energy, spur development and increase the likelihood of success of the CBRE Program on Lanai. See “Developments in renewable energy efforts–Requests for renewable proposals, expressions of interest, and information” for additional information.
One CBRE proposal for Lanai was selected but negotiations were terminated on June 15, 2022. With the concurrence of the Independent Observer, a replacement proposal was selected on July 1, 2022. On July 25, 2022, the Utilities announced the selection of a new developer for the Lanai CBRE RFP. On September 21, 2022, the Utilities were informed by Pulama Lanai of a project being planned on Lanai to remove the two large resorts from the grid, which represent approximately 40% of the load of the island and raises great uncertainty around the future energy needs for Lanai. On September 28, 2022, the Utilities notified the PUC that ongoing negotiations for the Lanai CBRE project would continue, but the Utilities did not execute a PPA at this time given the uncertainty due to the Pulama Lanai notification. The parties are currently exploring options to move forward with the project. On Molokai, proposals were only received from a single community co-op group. After evaluation of these proposals and with concurrence of the independent observer, the Utilities filed a letter on September 9, 2022, proposing to close the Molokai CBRE RFP and to work with the lone bidder to improve certain aspects of its two proposed projects outside of the RFP process for the benefit of the residents of Molokai. After successful negotiations, two contracts for solar plus storage facilities were executed and on September 29, 2023, the Utilities filed two applications with the PUC requesting approval of the contracts by the end of 2023.
The Utilities CBRE Phase 2 Rule 29 became effective on March 10, 2022. The Utilities are currently accepting project applications for small CBRE projects less than 250 kW in size. The PUC reserved 45 MW as well as a small amount of unallocated capacity from Phase 1 for small projects in Phase 2 on Oahu, Maui and Hawaii Island. The Utilities have developed a CBRE Portal where Subscriber Organizations can apply for small project capacity and manage subscribers for all CBRE projects in the program. Customers can also use the CBRE Portal to solicit subscription quotes, compare, and subscribe to a project once the Subscriber Organization has added their project to the portal.
Microgrid services tariff proceeding. In enacting Act 200 of 2018, the Hawaii legislature found that Hawaii’s residents and businesses were vulnerable to disruptions in the islands’ energy systems caused by extreme weather events or other disasters, and stated its belief that the use of microgrids would build energy resiliency into Hawaii’s communities, thereby increasing public safety and security. The purpose of Act 200 was therefore to encourage and facilitate the development and use of microgrids through the establishment of a standard microgrid services tariff. In July 2018, pursuant to Act 200, the PUC opened a proceeding to investigate the establishment of a microgrid services tariff. In August 2019, the PUC issued an order prioritizing items for resolution in the docket and directed the Parties to establish working groups (the Working Group) to address issues identified by the PUC.
On May 27, 2021, the Utilities filed the Microgrid Service Tariff. On September 21, 2021, the PUC provided guidance for Phase 2 of the Microgrid Tariff proceeding, specifically identifying the objective for Phase 2 to promote self-sufficiency and resilience among microgrid project operators, as well as to further streamline the Microgrid Services Tariff where applicable. Furthermore, the PUC instructed Parties to recommend priority topics, along with supporting rationale to better inform the topics that will be discussed during this phase of the proceeding, which the parties submitted by October 21, 2021.
On April 1, 2022, the PUC established its Prioritized Issues for Resolution for Phase 2 of the Microgrid proceeding, which includes the following: 1) Microgrid Compensation and Grid Services; 2) Utility Compensation; 3) Customer Protection and Related Considerations; 4) Interconnection; and 5) Working Group coordination with related microgrid and resilience Initiatives at Hawaiian Electric and government agencies. Furthermore, the PUC established a procedural schedule to consist of quarterly status conference meetings with the PUC, a Phase 2 Working Group Report, draft of a revised Microgrid Service Tariff, Party comments to the proposed Microgrid Service Tariff, followed by a PUC D&O.
On June 30, 2022, the PUC provided further guidance to the Working Group to prioritize discussion of the microgrid types in the following order: 1) Hybrid Microgrid - Third Party Developer using Utility lines/infrastructure; 2) Hybrid Microgrid - Utility Project with Partners; and 3) Customer Microgrid. Additionally, the PUC instructed the Working Group to discuss microgrid compensation and continue the involvement of microgrid developers in working group meetings.
The Working Group met from April 2022 through October 2022 to discuss the PUC’s objectives and respond to the Phase 2 priority issues. On October 31, 2022, the PUC issued a guidance letter and advised that the Working Group propose a new timeline for the Report. The Utilities and the Consumer Advocate filed a joint letter with a revised timeline on November 10, 2022. On November 21, 2022, the PUC issued an order to suspend the Phase 2 procedural schedule while it reviews the joint letter.
Decoupling. See “Decoupling” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of decoupling.

Regulated returns. As part of the PBR Framework’s annual review cycle, the Utilities track their rate-making ROACEs as calculated under the earnings sharing mechanism, which includes only items considered in establishing rates. At year-end, each utility’s rate-making ROACE is compared against its ROACE allowed by the PUC to determine whether earnings sharing has been triggered. The D&O in the PBR proceeding modified the earnings sharing mechanism to a symmetric arrangement. Effective with annual earnings for 2021, the earnings sharing will be triggered for achieved rate-making ROACE outside of a 300 basis points dead band above and below the current authorized rate-making ROACE of 9.5% for each of the Utilities. Earnings sharing credits or recoveries will be included in the biannual report (formally known as annual decoupling filing) to be filed with the PUC in the spring of the following year. Results for 2022, 2021 and 2020 did not trigger the earnings sharing mechanism for the Utilities.
On August 31, 2023, the PUC issued an order temporarily suspending the ESM until further notice. The intent of the order is to address the unintended consequence of customers potentially bearing the costs associated with the Maui windstorm and wildfires through the operation of the ESM without prior PUC review.
Actual and PUC-allowed returns, as of September 30, 2023, were as follows:

**    Recorded net income divided by average common equity.
***  ROACE adjusted to remove items not included by the PUC in establishing rates, such as incentive compensation.
The gap between PUC-allowed ROACEs and the ROACEs achieved is primarily due to the exclusion of certain expenses from rates (for example, incentive compensation and charitable contributions), and depreciation, O&M expense and return on rate base that are in excess of what is currently being recovered through rates (the last rate case plus authorized RAM adjustments and ARA revenues).
Regulatory proceedings.  On December 23, 2020, the PBR D&O was issued, establishing the PBR Framework. The PBR Framework implemented a five-year MRP, during which there will be no general rate case applications. In the fourth year of the MRP, the PUC will comprehensively review the PBR Framework to determine if any modifications or revisions are appropriate. See also “Regulatory proceedings” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Developments in renewable energy efforts.The Utilities’ renewable energy goals depend, in large part, on the success of renewable projects developed and operated by independent power producers. Beginning in 2017, the Utilities embarked on an ambitious procurement effort, selecting multiple solar plus storage projects to help reach the Utilities renewable portfolio standards goals as well as to assist the Utilities in retiring fossil fuel generation. Several of the recently procured projects have experienced delays as a result of supply chain disruptions caused by impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, solar product detentions at U.S. ports of entry ordered by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency, and unforeseen site conditions which resulted in unanticipated project costs or in some cases the inability to effectively use previously identified project sites. These impacts have resulted in five Stage 2 projects declared null and void by the independent power producers and one Stage 2 project mutually terminating its PPA with the Utilities. Projects have also indicated potential impacts from the investigation launched by the U.S. Department of Commerce on March 28, 2022, in response to a request by Auxin Solar Inc. in regard to solar panel imports. On June 6, 2022, President Biden created a bridge to temporarily facilitate U.S. solar deployers’ ability to source certain imported solar modules and cells free of certain duties for 24 months in order to ensure the U.S. has access to a sufficient supply of solar modules to meet electricity generation needs. The Utilities have negotiated amendments with several project developers regarding requests to increase previously approved prices and extend guaranteed commercial operations dates for those projects in order to ensure their viability given the impact of these recent market conditions. All of these amendments have been approved. Significant project delays or failures of these projects increase the risk of the Utilities not meeting the renewable portfolio standards or other climate related goals, eligibility for performance incentive mechanisms associated with the speed of increasing renewable generation, and the ability to retire fossil fuel units. Developments in the Utilities’ efforts to further their renewable energy strategy include renewable energy projects discussed in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the following:

New renewable PPAs.
On November 16, 2021, Hawaii Electric Light and Hawi Renewable Development, LLC (HRD) entered into an Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreement (HRD ARPPA). Under the HRD ARPPA, HRD would make modifications to upgrade and repower the existing wind facility to enable it to continue to provide up to 10.56 MW of energy at a cost savings for customers. The HRD ARPPA is delinked from the price of fossil fuel and extends the term of the existing PPA by 20 years following the commercial operations date. On December 17, 2021, Hawaii Electric Light filed an application for approval of the HRD ARPPA, requesting a decision no later than June 15, 2022. On January 11, 2023, Hawaii Electric Light and HRD entered into a First Amendment to the HRD ARPPA (First Amendment). The First Amendment includes an extension of the Guaranteed Commercial Operations Date (GCOD) by 26 months to accommodate the delayed delivery of components, and a temporary price increase until HRD recovers its estimated increased costs specified in the First Amendment. The Amendment was conditionally approved by the PUC on July 12, 2023.
On December 31, 2019, Hawaii Electric Light and Puna Geothermal Ventures entered into an Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreement (PGV ARPPA). The PGV ARPPA extends the term of the existing PPA by 25 years to 2052, expands the firm capacity of the facility to 46 MW and delinks the pricing for energy delivered from the facility from fossil fuel prices to reduce cost to customers. On March 16, 2022, the PUC issued a D&O, approving the PGV ARPPA, subject to conditions, that include requiring completion of a final environmental review prior to construction. On March 28, 2022, Puna Pono Alliance filed a Motion for Reconsideration seeking reconsideration, modification and/or vacation of the D&O. On June 6, the PUC denied Puna Pono’s Motion for Reconsideration. PGV notified the Utilities that changes in market conditions that transpired since the terms of the PGV ARPPA were negotiated impacted the financial viability of the Project, and that an amendment to the PGV ARPPA was necessary to mitigate the impacts. On March 27, 2023, the Utilities and PGV executed the First Amendment to the PGV ARPPA which increases the capacity payment and extends the GCOD. An application requesting approval of the First Amendment to the PGV ARPPA was filed on April 4, 2023. On June 13, 2023, PGV notified the Utilities of concerns of its ability to timely deliver on the terms of the ARPPA. PGV has been working to re-establish its capacity generation and has continued drilling and plans to drill additional wells, however, this process has taken longer than anticipated and PGV has become increasingly concerned about timely achieving the Contract Firm Capacity of 46 MW. In light of receiving this information and to allow the Utilities and PGV to determine the best path forward, on July 6, 2023 the Utilities asked the PUC to put the procedural schedule on hold for approval of the First Amendment to the PGV ARPPA. In order to address PGV’s concerns, the parties executed a Second Amendment to the PGV ARPPA, which among other things lowered the capacity needed to reach commercial operations and preserves the full contract capacity, effectuating a partial commissioning. On October 2, 2023 the Utilities filed a letter requesting the docket be reopened and seeking approval of the First and Second Amendments to the PGV ARPPA by the end of 2023.
Under a request for proposal process governed by the PUC and monitored by independent observers, in February 2018, the Utilities issued Stage 1 Renewable RFPs for 220 MW of renewable generation on Oahu, 50 MW of renewable generation on Hawaii Island, and 60 MW of renewable generation on Maui. To date, summarized information for a total of eight PPAs is as follows:

The Utilities have received PUC approvals to recover the total projected annual payment of $71.2 million for the eight PPAs through the PPAC to the extent such costs are not included in base rates. To date, the Utilities filed seven requests with the PUC for approval of amendments related to previously-approved PPAs for changes in pricing and/or guaranteed commercial operations dates to support completion of the projects while maintaining system reliability. The PUC has approved all seven amendments. On July 31, 2022, Mililani I Solar on Oahu, the first Stage 1 solar-plus-storage project, was placed into service. Waiawa Solar project on Oahu and the AES Waikoloa Solar project on Hawaii Island also reached commercial operations on January 11, 2023 and April 21, 2023, respectively. See also “Stage 1 renewable PPAs” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In continuation of their February 2018 request for proposal process, the Utilities issued their Stage 2 Renewable RFPs for Oahu, Maui and Hawaii Island and Grid Services RFP on August 22, 2019. To date, the Utilities had filed 11
81


PPAs. Additionally, two GSPAs and two applications for commitments of funds for capital expenditures for approval of the utility self-build projects were filed with the PUC. Of the 11 filed PPAs, six PPAs were declared null and void by the independent power producers and one PPA was mutually terminated. The four remaining projects have received PUC approval. To date, the Utilities filed three requests with the PUC for approval of amendments related to previously-approved PPAs for changes in pricing and/or guaranteed commercial operations dates to support completion of the projects while maintaining system reliability. The PUC has approved all three amendments. The two GSPAs were approved by the PUC in December 2020. The two utility Self-Build projects are still pending PUC approval.

Tariffed renewable resources.
As of September 30, 2023, there were approximately 600 MW, 133 MW and 144 MW of installed distributed renewable energy technologies (mainly PV) at Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric, respectively, for tariff-based private customer generation programs, namely Standard Interconnection Agreement, Net Energy Metering, Net Energy Metering Plus, Customer Grid Supply, Customer Self Supply, Customer Grid Supply Plus and Interim Smart Export. As of September 30, 2023, an estimated 39% of single family homes on the islands of Oahu, Hawaii and Maui have installed private rooftop solar systems, and approximately 21% of the Utilities’ total customers have solar systems.   
The Utilities began accepting energy from feed-in tariff projects in 2011. As of September 30, 2023, there were 44 MW, 2 MW and 6 MW of installed feed-in tariff capacity from renewable energy technologies at Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric, respectively.
Biofuel sources.
On June 30, 2021, the Utilities issued an RFP for all fuels, including biodiesel, for supply commencing January 1, 2023. The Utilities and Pacific Biodiesel Technologies, LLC (PBT) signed an agreement on December 13, 2021 for supply of biodiesel on all islands commencing January 1, 2023, which was approved by the PUC on December 1, 2022. Hawaiian Electric also has a spot buy contract with PBT to purchase additional quantities of biodiesel at or
82


below the price of diesel. Some purchases of “at parity” biodiesel have been made under the spot purchase contract, which was extended through June 2025.
Hawaiian Electric has a contingency supply contract with REG Marketing & Logistics Group, LLC to also supply biodiesel to any generating unit on Oahu in the event PBT is not able to supply necessary quantities. This contingency contract has been extended to November 2024, and will continue with no volume purchase requirements.
Requests for renewable proposals, expressions of interest, and information.
On November 22, 2021, CBRE RFPs for Molokai and Lanai were opened. The RFP for Lanai sought a single PV paired with storage project, which included a 3 MW portion, reserved for CBRE. The Lanai RFP closed on February 14, 2022 and the Molokai RFP closed on March 1, 2022. A project was selected in the Lanai RFP, but negotiations were terminated. On July 1, 2022, a replacement project was selected and negotiations commenced. The RFP for Molokai sought 2.75 MW of new PV paired with storage projects for CBRE generation. No projects were selected in the Molokai RFP. However, with the concurrence of the independent observer, the Utilities are working with the lone bidder outside of the RFP process. See “Transition to a decarbonized and sustainable energy future—Community-based renewable energy” for additional information.
On March 17, 2022, the CBRE LMI RFPs for Oahu, Maui and Hawaii were opened and proposals were received. In November 2022, seven projects were selected consisting of one standalone PV project on Oahu, three paired PV with storage projects on Maui, and three paired PV with storage projects on Hawaii Island. The Utilities opened the CBRE Tranche 1 RFPs for Oahu, Maui and Hawaii on April 14, 2022. In March 2023, five projects were selected consisting of one paired PV with storage project on Oahu and four standalone PV projects on Hawaii Island. See “Transition to a decarbonized and sustainable energy future—Community-based renewable energy” for additional information.
The Hawaii Island Stage 3 RFP, seeking 325 GWh per year of energy and 65 MW of renewable firm capacity, was filed on November 7, 2022 and was issued on November 21, 2022. Proposals were received on April 20, 2023. The Stage 3 RFPs for Oahu and Maui opened for bids on January 20, 2023. For Oahu, the Utilities are seeking 500 to 700 MW of renewable firm capacity, and at least 965 GWh of renewable dispatchable energy annually. For Maui, the Utilities are procuring at least 40 MW of renewable firm capacity, and at least 425 GWh of renewable dispatchable energy annually. On March 15, 2023, the PUC denied the Utilities’ request to not advance its own proposal to meet the Maui firm capacity need as required under the Framework for Competitive Bidding, and on April 5, 2023, denied the Utilities’ motion to modify the Maui RFP to allow a self-build, ordering the Utilities to submit a proposal for the firm capacity need, or in the alternative, file a request to suspend the firm generation portion of the Maui RFP to make adjustments as ordered by the PUC, including an extension of the bidding period for firm generation proposals. The Utilities filed their request on April 12, 2023, which the PUC granted on April 14, 2023. The updated Maui RFP was filed on April 27, 2023. Proposals for the Oahu RFP and the variable generation portion of the Maui RFP were received on April 20, 2023. The Utilities submitted a proposal that is consistent with the reliability requirements under the competitive bidding framework as directed by the PUC. Priority List selections were announced on July 6, 2023 and best and final offers for the Oahu and Hawaii RFPs and the variable generation portion of the Maui RFP were due on July 14, 2023. Final award selection was originally planned for October 2023, with negotiations of the PPAs expected to be completed in the later part of 2024. On September 27, 2023, the PUC approved the Utilities’ proposal to extend the selection of the final awards to as far as December 1, 2023 for the Oahu and Hawaii RFPs, as well as for the variable generation portion of the Maui RFP. Proposals for the firm generation portion of the Maui Stage 3 RFP were received on August 17, 2023, and Priority List selections were announced on October 9, 2023.
Review of Interconnection Process and Kapolei Energy Storage Power Purchase Agreement.
In February 2021, the PUC initiated a docket for the purposes of reviewing the status and interconnection progress of various utility-related renewable projects (i.e., Stage 1 and Stage 2 RFP PPAs and CBRE) and the Utilities’ transition plans for the expiration of the AES power purchase agreement, the retirement of the Kahului Power Plant, and other fossil fuel power plant transition plans, as needed. The Utilities filed initial status updates on the project timelines, steps needed for each of the renewable projects to achieve commercial operation and steps the Utilities are taking to address projected extensions of GCODs for renewable projects under development, which are due to a variety of factors, including those outside of the control of the Utilities. The PUC subsequently held status conferences on the Utilities’ updates. In April 2021, the PUC issued an Order directing the Utilities to establish regulatory liabilities for the difference between the on-peak avoided cost and the unit price included in the applications for approval of the renewable project PPAs, effective with the GCOD included in the applications (the earliest GCOD included in the applications is July 2021) or from the date of the Order for CBRE Phase 1 projects. The amount of regulatory liabilities to be recorded in future periods are not determinable at this time and would be affected by a number of factors, including the length of the GCOD extension period, the monthly on-peak avoided cost, as well as the factors described above. The Utilities filed a Motion for Reconsideration of the entire Order, or in the alternative to clarify that
83


at most the PUC is directing the Utilities to track the information and not record the information at this time. The Utilities further requested a Stay of the Order pending resolution of the Motion. The Utilities maintain that extensions of GCODs are allowed under the PUC-approved contracts and that the Order has the unintended consequence of imposing penalties against the Utilities without due process. In May 2021, the PUC issued an order clarifying its Order and directed the Utilities to track costs to consumers caused by the perceived delay of renewable projects, and that the PUC does not intend to, at this time, impose any penalties on the Utilities. The Utilities report the tracked cost on a monthly basis. The full text of the Order, Motion for Reconsideration and request for a Stay of the Order, and clarification Order as well as the tracked costs can be found on the PUC website at dms.puc.hawaii.gov/dms (Docket No. 2021-0024).
During the 2022 Legislative Session, the Hawaii State Legislature passed Senate Bill 2474 SD 2 HD 1 CD 1, which was signed into law on June 27, 2022 as Act 201. The law requires that the PUC contract with a qualified consultant to conduct a study on the accessibility of Hawaii’s electric system and procedures for interconnection to Hawaii’s electric system, including but not limited to the timeliness and costs of interconnection. The PUC contracted with PA Consulting to conduct the study as well as act as the Independent Engineer for the Stage 3 Request for Proposal procurement. The report was submitted to the PUC on December 28, 2022 and did not find any wrongdoing on the part of the utility. The report made minor recommendations for Hawaiian Electric to review interconnection related tariff/rules and revise, if necessary, to provide technical clarity in terms of interconnection requirements, to establish a database for the purpose of centralizing all information related to all interconnection projects they manage, including their self-build and IPP-built projects, and to develop comparable interconnection cost metrics for self-build and IPP-built projects so that interconnection costs can be directly compared. The PUC stated its intent to address the recommendations that are directed to Hawaiian Electric through various proceedings related to the interconnection process. Hawaiian Electric will be working on these recommendations. The contracted consultant is working on a second phase of the study, to be completed in 2023, which will include the assessment and recommendation of remaining issues listed in Act 201 that are not covered in Phase 1.
Also in April 2021, the PUC approved the Kapolei Energy Storage (KES) PPA (one of the PPAs as a result of the Stage 2 Renewable RFP process) (KES Decision and Order), subject to nine conditions, including the Utilities forgoing the second portion of the PIM rewards amounting up to $1.7 million for the Stage 1 RFP PPAs, removing grid constraints for the Utilities’ CBRE Phase 2 projects and for existing and new distributed energy programs, financial retirement of Hawaiian Electric generating units by specified dates and adjusting target revenues at the retirement dates for such retirements, and a requirement to charge the batteries in the project using significant levels of renewable energy generation. The financial retirement of the generating units described in the KES Decision and Order is contrary to the intent of Hawaii Revised Statutes §269-6(d), which encourages the recovery of stranded costs for the retirement of fossil fuel generation, and contrary to the regulatory compact under which in return for agreeing to commit capital necessary to allow utilities to meet their obligation to serve, utilities are assured recovery of their investment and a fair opportunity to earn a reasonable return on the capital prudently committed to the business. Hawaiian Electric filed a Motion for Reconsideration and Stay of the Decision and Order due to potentially significant financial and operational impacts. In May 2021, the PUC granted, in part, Hawaiian Electric’s Motion for Reconsideration and Stay. In this Order, the PUC addressed a number of Hawaiian Electric’s concerns, including removing the condition of the Utilities foregoing the PIM award from Stage 1 RFP projects, agreeing to address grid constraint concerns in respective DER and CBRE dockets and not in the KES docket, removing the minimum thresholds of charging energy coming from renewable energy generation and corresponding deadlines associated with these thresholds and modifying the condition on financial retirement of generating units. The PUC indicated the net book value of generating assets would be addressed at the time of retirement. The full text of the KES Decision and Order and the Motion for Reconsideration and Stay with respect thereto, and the Order granting, in part, Hawaiian Electric’s Motion for Reconsideration can be found on the PUC website at hpuc.my.site.com/cdms/s/search (Docket No. 2020-0136). On October 2, 2023, the PUC issued an order (Order No. 40293) in the proceeding regarding the retirement of Waiau Units 3 and 4, which among other things, removed one of the nine conditions from the April 2021 KES Decision and Order regarding the financial retirement of Waiau and Kahe Units by specified dates. The full text of Order No. 42093 can be found on the PUC website at hpuc.my.site.com/cdms/s/search (Docket 2023-0339).
Legislation and regulation. Congress and the Hawaii legislature periodically consider legislation that could have positive or negative effects on the Utilities and their customers. Also see “Environmental regulation” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fuel contracts. On June 30, 2021, the Utilities issued two RFPs for all fuels for supply commencing January 1, 2023. On February 1, 2022, the Utilities and PAR Hawaii Refining, LLC (PAR Hawaii) entered into a fuel supply contract commencing January 1, 2023. On December 1, 2022, the PUC issued a decision and order (D&O) approving the PAR Hawaii fuels contract and recovery of associated costs through ECRC.
84


On March 3, 2022, as part of economic sanctions amid the Russia-Ukraine war, PAR Hawaii announced that it was suspending all purchases of Russian crude oil, which accounts for at least 25% of Hawaii’s supply. The Utilities are taking additional measure to ensure adequate supply of fuel by entering into a backup fuel supply contract with Vitol Inc. (Vitol) commencing on December 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024 with annual extensions if mutually agreed by both parties. The PUC issued the final D&O approving the Vitol backup fuels supply contract on December 1, 2022 and the costs incurred under the contract with Vitol are recovered in the Utilities’ respective ECRCs.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Liquidity and capital resources.
As of September 30, 2023, Hawaiian Electric had no commercial paper outstanding, $200 million outstanding on its revolving credit facility and no remaining available borrowing capacity under the Utilities’ committed line of credit. The cash proceeds were invested in highly liquid short-term investments, and as of September 30, 2023, the Utilities’ cash and cash equivalents balance was $275 million, compared to $39 million as of December 31, 2022.
Hawaiian Electric’s objective continues to be to operate a strong, financially healthy enterprise to empower a thriving future for Hawaii. While the fundamentals of its business remain strong, the Utilities took prudent and measured actions to strengthen their financial position while continuing to provide reliable service to its customers and reinforcing its commitment to serving the community for the long term. The Utilities are working with financial advisors to help ensure adequate liquidity and believe they have adequate cash to meet their financial obligations and sustain operations, including the payment of a $100 million debt maturity in November 2023. Longer term, the Utilities are evaluating other sources of liquidity that could include securitization, re-prioritizing capital spending and reducing O&M, issuing secured debt, and conducting asset sales, among others.
Accounts receivable balances remain elevated coming out of the pandemic and has led to higher bad debt expense and higher write-offs in 2022 and year-to-date September 2023, following the end of the moratorium on disconnections. The higher bad debt expense is expected to continue until the Utilities return to pre-pandemic collection practices, along with a decrease in volume, for delinquent accounts. The Maui windstorm and wildfires have not and are not anticipated to materially impact accounts receivable and higher bad debt expense. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $32.1 million of the accounts receivables were over 30 days past due. Of the over 30 days past due amounts, approximately 40% were on payment plans. In addition to the cash flow impact from delayed collection of accounts receivable, lower kWh sales relative to the level of kWh sales approved in the last rate case generally result in delayed timing of cash flows, resulting in higher working capital requirements. As of September 30, 2023, the Utilities had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $275 million.
With the exception of Maui, the Utilities are continuing the disconnection process on a tiered basis, expanding the targeted balances, which is expected to reduce delinquent accounts receivable balances and accelerate cash collections. Service disconnections on Maui are suspended from August 8, 2023 to January 5, 2024; however, efforts are ongoing to educate and inform customers impacted by the Maui windstorm and wildfires on the availability of financial assistance to manage delinquencies accordingly. See also “Regulatory assets and liabilities” in Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The rebuilding of Lahaina will be a community-led effort and will occur over an extended period of time. The cost of rebuilding the electric utility infrastructure is not yet known, but could be significant because the infrastructure that may be required is expected to be different than what previously existed. For example, to mitigate wildfire risk, grid hardening strategies, such as undergrounding lines in high-risk locations, are expected to be employed.

Prior to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, Hawaiian Electric typically utilized short-term debt, typically commercial paper, to support normal operations, to refinance short-term debt and for other temporary requirements. The Utilities also historically utilized long-term debt, borrowings of the proceeds of special purpose revenue bonds (SPRBs) issued by the State of Hawaii Department of Budget and Finance (DBF) and the issuance of privately placed unsecured senior notes bearing taxable interest, to finance the Utilities’ capital improvement projects, or to repay short-term borrowings used to finance such projects. The downgrades of Hawaiian Electric’s credit ratings impacted the Utilities’ ability to access capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms. The Utilities are currently evaluating other sources of liquidity that could include re-prioritizing capital spending and reducing O&M, issuing secured debt, conducting asset sales, among others.
Credit agreement. On August 23, 2023, Hawaiian Electric fully drew down $200 million on its existing revolving credit facilities. The cash proceeds were invested in highly liquid short-term investments and will be used for general corporate purposes. The $200 million line of credit facility remained fully drawn as of September 30, 2023. See Note 6 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Credit ratings. In August 2023, the credit ratings of Hawaiian Electric were subject to multiple downgrades, including to ratings below investment grade, by Fitch, Moody’s and S&P. These rating actions were primarily due to the uncertainty facing the Utilities resulting from potential liability related to damages and losses caused by the Maui windstorm and wildfires and increasing number of lawsuits filed to date. As of September 30, 2023, the Fitch, Moody’s and S&P ratings of Hawaiian Electric were as follows:

Such ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any securities; such ratings may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agencies; and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.
See “Credit and Capital Market Risk” in item 1A. Risk Factors in HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s 2022 Form 10-K and in item 1A. Risk Factors below. The downgrades of Hawaiian Electric’s credit ratings impacted the Utilities’ ability to access capital markets and other sources of debt financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms. In addition, the downgrades of the Hawaiian Electric’s credit ratings triggered certain cash or payment requirements with the Utilities’ vendors.
SPRBs. Special purpose revenue bonds (SPRBs) have been issued by the Department of Budget and Finance of the State of Hawaii (DBF) to finance (and refinance) capital improvement projects of Hawaiian Electric and its subsidiaries, but the sources of their repayment are the non-collateralized obligations of Hawaiian Electric and its subsidiaries under loan agreements and notes issued to the DBF, including Hawaiian Electric’s guarantees of its subsidiaries’ obligations.
On June 10, 2019, the Hawaii legislature authorized the issuance of up to $700 million of SPRBs ($400 million for Hawaiian Electric, $150 million for Hawaii Electric Light and $150 million for Maui Electric), with PUC approval, prior to June 30, 2024, to finance the Utilities’ multi-project capital improvement programs (2019 Legislative Authorization).
86


On February 9, 2021, the PUC approved the use of the expedited approval procedure to request the issuance and sale of the remaining/unused amount of SPRBs authorized by the 2019 Legislative Authorization (i.e., total not to exceed up to $400 million for Hawaiian Electric, up to $150 million for Hawaii Electric Light, and up to $150 million for Maui Electric) during the period January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024. On January 31, 2023, the PUC approved the Utilities’ requests to issue the remaining unused amounts of the SPRBs during the period January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, and the certification and approval of supplemental projects eligible to be financed by the SPRB proceeds.
Taxable debt. On December 20, 2022, the Utilities received PUC approval to issue, over a four-year period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2026, unsecured obligations bearing taxable interest (Hawaiian Electric up to $230 million, Hawaii Electric Light up to $65 million and Maui Electric up to $105 million), to finance capital expenditures, repay long-term and/or short-term debt used to finance or refinance capital expenditures, and/or to reimburse funds used for payment of capital expenditures. Pursuant to the approval, on January 10, 2023, the Utilities executed through a private placement, $150 million in unsecured senior notes (2023 Notes). The 2023 Notes had a delayed draw feature and the Utilities drew down all the proceeds on February 9, 2023. See Note 6 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information and see summary table below for remaining authorized amounts.

As of September 30, 2023, Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light, and Maui Electric have $130 million, $40 million, and $80 million, respectively of remaining taxable debt authorization.
Equity. On December 20, 2022, the Utilities received PUC approval to issue and sell each utility’s common stock over a four-year period from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2026 (Hawaiian Electric’s sale/s to HEI of up to $75 million, Hawaii Electric Light sale/s to Hawaiian Electric of up to $25 million, and Maui Electric sale/s to Hawaiian Electric of up to $55 million) and the purchase of Hawaii Electric Light and Maui Electric common stock by Hawaiian Electric from 2023 through December 31, 2026. As of September 30, 2023, Hawaiian Electric, Hawaii Electric Light, and Maui Electric have $75 million, $25 million, and $55 million, respectively, of unused common stock authorization.
Cash flows. The following table reflects the changes in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022:
Nine months ended September 30
(in thousands)20232022Change
Net cash provided by operating activities$406,111 $124,167 $281,944 
Net cash used in investing activities(329,281)(219,126)(110,155)
Net cash provided by financing activities160,782 61,005 99,777 

Net cash provided by operating activities. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by higher cash receipt of payments from large delinquent commercial customer accounts, and from customers due to increased disconnection efforts and receipt of government and other program assistance, as well as lower cash paid for fuel oil stock due to lower fuel oil prices, partially offset by higher revenue taxes paid due to timing.
Net cash used in investing activities. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by an increase in capital expenditures related to construction activities.
Net cash provided by financing activities. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was driven by higher cash proceeds from long-term borrowings, partially offset by repayment of short-term borrowings.
Material cash requirements. Material cash requirements of the Utilities include O&M expenses, including One ‘Ohana Initiative contribution (see further information in Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), legal and consulting costs related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, labor and benefit costs, fuel and purchase power costs, debt and interest payments, operating and finance lease obligations, their forecasted capital expenditures (including capital expenditures related to wildfires and wildfire mitigations) and investments, their expected retirement benefit plan contributions and other short-term and long-term material cash requirements. The cash requirements for O&M, fuel and purchase power costs, debt and interest payments, and operating and finance lease obligations are generally funded through the collection of the Utilities’ revenue requirement established in the last rate case and other mechanisms established under the regulatory framework. The cash requirements for capital expenditures are generally funded through retained earnings, the issuance of debt, and
87


contributions of equity from HEI and generally recovered through the Utilities’ revenue requirement or other capital recovery mechanisms over time. Although the Utilities’ credit rating downgrades related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires will continue to adversely impact its ability to access capital markets and other sources of debt financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms, the Utilities currently believe that their ability to generate cash is adequate to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund their material cash requirements in the near term. However, the economic impact of higher fuel prices, inflation, higher interest rates, tightening of monetary policy, the lingering COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical situations, and the potential damages and losses related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires and related lawsuits (see further information in Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), create significant uncertainty, and the Utilities cannot predict the extent or duration of these conditions, the future effects that these conditions will have on the Utilities’ cost of capital and their ability to access additional capital, or the future impacts on the Utilities’ financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Recent Developments. See also “Recent developments” in HEI’s MD&A.
In August 2023, ASB was impacted by wildfires on Maui which caused widespread property damage and fatalities. ASB’s outstanding credit exposure in Maui and the fire impacted zone of Lahaina as of September 30, 2023 was 11.9% and 0.8%, respectively, of the Bank’s total loan portfolio.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, ASB incurred additional expenses as a result of the Maui wildfires of $8.6 million, pretax, including higher provision for credit losses, additional professional services expenses and other extraordinary expenses.
The Hawaii economy remained stable in the third quarter of 2023 as visitor arrivals continued to drive a growing labor market and tax collections. Domestic visitor arrivals continued to remain strong due to pent up demand from leisure travelers. International visitor arrivals continued to lag significantly behind pre-pandemic levels but have gradually increased as certain Asian countries began loosening travel restrictions. COVID cases caused by the new variants have increased but hospitalization rates remain at relatively low levels.
As of September 30, 2023, the Federal Reserve federal funds rate target range was 5.25% - 5.50% in response to continued inflationary pressures in the economy. The increase in interest rates has impacted ASB’s net interest margin as higher yields on earning assets were more than offset by an increase in yields on deposits and other borrowings. The higher interest rates have also reduced mortgage refinance and purchase activity, negatively impacting mortgage banking income. Additionally, the tight labor market and inflationary pressures have increased compensation and benefit expenses.
ASB experienced continued loan growth in 2023 as total loans increased $216 million compared to total loans at the end of 2022. There was demand for commercial real estate, residential, home equity lines of credit and consumer loan products. The consumer loan portfolio growth also included purchases of solar and sustainable home improvement loans from a third party. The residential loan portfolio increase was due to ASB’s decision to portfolio a larger portion of its residential loan production.
Deposit growth driven by federal stimulus, which had previously funded loan growth and investment security purchases, has ceased and required ASB to increase its other borrowings to fund the loan portfolio growth, thereby increasing the Bank’s funding costs and reducing its balance sheet sensitivity. Additional federal funds rate increases may not further increase the Bank’s net interest margin if core deposits continue to flow out and funding is replaced with other borrowings.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, ASB recorded a provision for credit losses of $8.8 million due to $5.9 million of credit loss reserves for loans that were impacted by Maui wildfires and additional credit loss reserves for the residential, consumer and commercial real estate loan portfolios. The provision for credit losses in future quarters will be dependent on future economic conditions and changes to borrower credit quality at that time.
At September 30, 2023, the investment securities portfolio balance decreased approximately $203 million from year end 2022 as investment securities portfolio repayments were used as a funding source for the loan growth and ASB did not purchase any investment securities in 2023. The lack of deposit growth resulted in lower excess liquidity and the need for other sources to fund the loan growth. The change in interest rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 resulted in higher unrealized losses in the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio, which also decreased the investment portfolio balance.
In 2023, the increase in interest rates and the collapse of a few financial institutions had caused turmoil in the banking industry. Due to the failure of these financial institutions, the focus on the banking industry has been around capital levels, uninsured deposits and liquidity. At September 30, 2023, ASB’s regulatory capital ratios were above the “well-capitalized” and regulatory requirements, including the conservation buffers. Approximately 87% of the Bank’s deposits are FDIC insured or fully collateralized. ASB has access to approximately $3 billion in funding sources to meet its liquidity needs.
ASB continues to maintain its low-risk profile, strong balance sheet and straightforward community banking business model.

Average core deposit balances decreased $539 million; average term certificate balances increased $436 million.
Average deposit yields increased from 8 basis points to 70 basis points due to a shift in mix of deposits and higher yields from the increase in the interest rate environment.
Average other borrowings increased $488 million and average yields increased 295 basis points.
Average cost of funds increased from 13 basis points to 102 basis points due to a shift in funding from low cost core deposits to higher costing term certificates and other borrowings.
Provision for credit losses— 
2023 provision for credit losses included credit loss reserves for loans impacted by the Maui wildfires, additional credit loss reserves for the residential and commercial real estate loan portfolios and credit loss reserves to cover net charge-offs, partly offset by the release of credit loss reserves for a delinquent commercial loan that paid off.
The release of credit loss reserves in 2022 for improved credit trends in the residential, home equity line of credit and consumer loan portfolios was offset by additional credit loss reserves for growth in the consumer loan portfolio which included purchases of solar and sustainable home improvement loans.
2022 provision for credit losses also included the release of credit loss reserves for unfunded commercial construction loan commitments.
Delinquency rates have decreased—from 0.27% at September 30, 2022 to 0.24% at September 30, 2023 primarily due to lower residential and commercial loan delinquencies, partly offset by higher consumer and home equity line of credit loan delinquencies.
Net charge-off to average loans increased from 0.03% at September 30, 2022 to 0.07% at September 30, 2023 primarily due to an increase in consumer loan net charge-offs.

Average loan portfolio yields were 78 basis points higher—loan yields continued to increase in 2023 due to the interest rate environment as adjustable rate loan yields repriced with rising interest rates and new loan production yields were higher than the portfolio rates.
Average loan portfolio balances increased $753 million - commercial real estate, home equity line of credit and commercial loan portfolio average balances increased $234 million, $136 million and $63 million, respectively, due to demand for these loan types. Residential loan portfolio average balances increased $205 million due to the Bank’s decision to portfolio a larger portion of the residential loan production. Consumer loan portfolio average balances increased $117 million primarily due to the purchase of solar and sustainable home improvement loans.
Average investment securities portfolio balances decreased $209 million—repayments in the investment securities portfolio were used to fund the loan portfolio growth.
Average investment securities portfolio yields decreased 2 basis points.
Noninterest income45 42 
Higher bank-owned life insurance income - higher returns from insurance policies.
Lower mortgage banking income - lower residential loan sale volume due to lower production volume as the higher interest rate environment has reduced the demand for residential mortgage loans. ASB’s decision to portfolio a larger portion of the residential loan production also reduced the amount of loans sold on the secondary market.
Less: gain on sale of real estate— (1)Gain on sale of real estate, which is included in Noninterest income above and in the Bank’s statements of income and comprehensive income in Note 4, is classified as gain on sale of real estate in the condensed consolidated statements of income, and accordingly, is reflected in operating expenses below as a separate line item and excluded from Revenues.

Interest expense56 51 
Interest expense on deposits and other borrowings increased in 2023 compared to 2022 due to an increase in term certificate and other borrowing balances which were required to fund the loan portfolio growth, higher yields due to the increase in the interest rate environment and a shift in deposit mix.
Average core deposit balances decreased $513 million; average term certificate balances increased $398 million.
Average deposit yields increased from 6 basis points to 51 basis points. The increase was primarily due to the increase in term certificate yields of 258 basis points and the shift in mix of deposits from low cost core deposits to term certificates.
Average other borrowings increased $598 million and average yields increased 343 basis points. Other borrowings were used to fund the growth in the loan portfolio. The higher yields were reflective of the higher interest rate environment.
Provision for credit losses10 (1)11 
2023 provision for credit losses included credit loss reserves for loans impacted by the Maui wildfires, growth in the loan portfolio and credit loss reserves to cover net charge-offs.
2022 negative provision for credit losses reflected improved credit trends, credit regrades and lower credit loss rates in the commercial real estate and commercial loan portfolios.
2022 negative provision for credit losses also included additional credit loss reserves for growth in the commercial real estate loan portfolio and consumer loan portfolios.
Delinquency rates have decreased—from 0.27% at September 30, 2022 to 0.24% at September 30, 2023 due to lower residential and commercial loan delinquencies, partly offset by higher consumer and home equity line of credit loan delinquencies.
Net charge-off to average loans have increased—from 0.01% at September 30, 2022 to 0.11% at September 30, 2023 primarily due to an increase in consumer loan portfolio net charge-offs and the charge-off of a residential loan.

 Nine months ended September 30Increase 
(in millions)20232022(decrease)Primary reason(s)
Noninterest expense165 149 16 
The increase in noninterest expenses were due to higher compensation and benefits expenses, an increase in FDIC insurance assessments, higher deposit account expenses and additional expenses related to the Maui wildfires.
Higher compensation and benefits expenses included higher base compensation as a result of merit increases, market adjustments and the fair value adjustment related to the deferred compensation plan.
Gain on sale of real estate— (1)
Expenses231 152 79 The increase in expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was due to higher interest expenses, higher noninterest expenses, higher provision for credit losses and lower gain on sale of real estate in 2023.
Operating income61 80 (19)The decrease in operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to higher interest expenses, higher noninterest expenses and higher provision for credit losses, partly offset by higher interest income and higher noninterest income.
Net income50 62 (12)Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than the same period in 2022 due to lower operating income partly offset by lower income tax expense.

Earning assets, costing liabilities, contingencies and other factors.  Earnings of ASB depend primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on earning assets and interest paid on costing liabilities. The interest
95


rate environment has been impacted by disruptions in the financial markets over a period of several years. The Federal Open Market Committee federal funds rate target range was 5.25% - 5.50% at September 30, 2023 to combat inflation. ASB’s net interest income and net interest margin has been impacted by the higher interest rates as the Bank has used higher costing other borrowings and term certificates to fund its loan growth.
Loans and mortgage-backed securities are ASB’s primary earning assets.
Loan portfolio.  ASB’s loan volumes and yields are affected by market interest rates, competition, demand for financing, availability of funds and management’s responses to these factors. See Note 5 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a composition of ASB’s loan portfolio.
Home equity— key credit statistics. The home equity line of credit (HELOC) portfolio makes up 17% of the total loan portfolio and is generally an interest-only revolving loan for a 10-year period, after which time the HELOC outstanding balance converts to a fully amortizing variable-rate term loan with a 20-year amortization period. Borrowers also have a “Fixed Rate Loan Option” to convert a part of their available line of credit into a 5, 7 or 10-year fully amortizing fixed-rate loan with level principal and interest payments. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 37% of the portfolio balances were amortizing loans under the Fixed Rate Loan Option. A HELOC loan is typically in a subordinate lien position to a borrower’s first mortgage loan, however, approximately 54% of ASB’s HELOC loan portfolio is in a first lien position.
Loan portfolio risk elements.  See Note 5 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Investment securities.  ASB’s investment portfolio was comprised as follows:

(dollars in thousands)Balance% of totalBalance% of total
U.S. Treasury and federal agency obligations$134,912 %$140,957 %

Mortgage revenue bonds14,494 14,902 
Total investment securities$2,478,417 100 %$2,681,414 100 %
Currently, ASB’s investment portfolio consists of high-grade investment securities, including U.S. Treasury and federal agency obligations, mortgage-backed securities, corporate bonds and mortgage revenue bonds. ASB owns mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government agencies or sponsored agencies, including the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) and Small Business Administration (SBA). Principal and interest on mortgage-backed securities issued by FNMA, FHLMC, GNMA and SBA are guaranteed by the issuer and, in the case of GNMA and SBA, backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. U.S. Treasury securities are also backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
Deposits and other borrowings.  Deposits continue to be the largest source of funds for ASB and are affected by market interest rates, competition and management’s responses to these factors. In 2023, deposits increased by $54.7 million, as an outflow of core deposits was replaced with time certificates. Core deposit retention will remain challenging in the current rising interest rate environment. Advances from the FHLB of Des Moines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and federal funds purchased continue to be additional sources of funds. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, ASB’s costing liabilities consisted of 92% deposits and 8% borrowings. The weighted average cost of deposits for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 was 0.51% and 0.06%, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, ASB had approximately $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion of deposits that were uninsured or not collateralized, respectively.
Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and Federal Reserve Bank. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, ASB had $200 million and $414 million of advances outstanding at the FHLB of Des Moines, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, the unused borrowing capacity with the FHLB of Des Moines was $1.9 billion. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, ASB had $550 million and nil borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank, respectively. The FHLB of Des Moines and Federal Reserve Bank are important sources of liquidity for ASB.
Contingencies.  ASB is subject in the normal course of business to pending and threatened legal proceedings. Management does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of these pending or threatened legal proceedings will be material to its financial position. However, ASB cannot rule out the possibility that such outcomes could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or liquidity for a particular reporting period in the future.
96


Other factors.  Interest rate risk is a significant risk of ASB’s operations and also represents a market risk factor affecting the fair value of ASB’s investment securities. Increases and decreases in prevailing interest rates generally translate into decreases and increases in the fair value of the investment securities, respectively. In addition, changes in credit spreads also impact the fair values of the investment securities.
As of September 30, 2023, ASB had an unrealized loss, net of taxes, on investment securities (including securities pledged for repurchase agreements) in AOCI of $350.2 million compared to an unrealized loss, net of taxes, of $328.9 million as of December 31, 2022. The unrealized losses were due to changes in interest rates and did not affect regulatory capital ratios. See “Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk” for a discussion of ASB’s interest rate risk sensitivity.
During the first nine months of 2023, ASB recorded a provision for credit losses of $9.4 million in the allowance for credit losses for growth in the loan portfolio, credit loss reserves related to the Maui wildfires and additional credit loss reserves to cover net charge-offs, partly offset by the release of credit loss reserves for improved credit trends and lower credit loss rates. During the first nine months of 2022, ASB recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $0.2 million in the allowance for credit losses reflecting good credit trends including lower net charge-offs and credit upgrades in the commercial real estate and commercial loan portfolios, partly offset by loan reserves for growth in the commercial real estate loan portfolio and solar and sustainable home improvement loans purchased during the year.

ASB maintains a reserve for credit losses that consists of two components, the allowance for credit losses and an allowance for loan commitments (unfunded reserve). The level of the reserve for unfunded loan commitments is adjusted by recording an expense or recovery in provision for credit losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, ASB recorded a provision for credit losses for unfunded commitments of $0.7 million and a negative provision for credit losses $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was $5.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively.
Legislation and regulation.  ASB is subject to extensive regulation, principally by the OCC and the FDIC. Depending on ASB’s level of regulatory capital and other considerations, these regulations could restrict the ability of ASB to compete with other institutions and to pay dividends to its shareholder. See the discussion below under “Liquidity and capital resources.”

As of September 30, 2023, ASB was one of Hawaii’s largest financial institutions based on assets of $6.6$9.7 billion and deposits of $5.8$8.2 billion.
As of September 30, 2017,2023, ASB’s unused FHLB borrowing capacity was approximately $1.9 billion. As of September 30, 2017,2023, ASB had commitments to borrowers for loans and unused lines and letters of credit of $1.8$1.9 billion. As of September 30, 2017, the Company did not have commitments to lend to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings. Management believes ASB’s current sources of funds will enable it to meet these obligations while maintaining liquidity at satisfactory levels.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2023, net cash provided by ASB’s operating activities was $80 million. Net cash used during the same period by ASB’s investing activities was $211$38 million, primarily due to a net increase in loans receivable of $283 million, purchases of loans held for investment securities of $369$26 million and additions to premises and equipment of $36 million, and contributions to low-income housing investments of $8$5 million, partly offset by the receipt of investment security repayments from investment securitiesand maturities of $155$170 million, proceeds from the sale of

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016,2022, net cash provided by ASB’s operating activities was $42$82 million. Net cash used during the same period by ASB’s investing activities was $310$553 million, primarily due to purchases of investment securities of $354 million, a net increase in loans receivable of $175$395 million, andpurchases of available-for-sale securities of $366 million, purchases of loans held for investment of $77 million, bank owned life insurance purchases of $5 million, additions to premises and equipment of $8$3 million and a net increase in FHLB stock of $5 million, partly offset by the receipt of investment security repayments and callsmaturities of investment securities of $173$296 million, proceeds from the saleredemption of investment securitiesbank owned life insurance of $16$2 million and proceeds from the sale of commercial loansreal estate of $38$1 million. Net cash provided by financing activities during this period was $260$370 million, primarily due to increases in deposit liabilities of $355$87 million, a net increase in short-term borrowings of $125 million and a net increase in repurchase agreements of $196 million, partly offset by a net decrease in retail repurchase agreements of $21 million, maturities of securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $42 million, a net decrease inmortgage escrow deposits of $5$6 million and $27$32 million in common stock dividends to HEI (through ASB Hawaii).

ASB believes that maintaining a satisfactory regulatory capital position provides a basis for public confidence, affords protection to depositors, helps to ensure continued access to capital markets on favorable terms and provides a foundation for growth. FDIC regulations restrict the ability of financial institutions that are not well-capitalized to compete on the same terms as well-capitalized institutions, such as by offering interest rates on deposits that are significantly higher than the rates offered by competing institutions. As of September 30, 2017,2023, ASB was well-capitalized (minimum(well-capitalized ratio requirements noted in parentheses)


with a Common equity Tier-1 ratio of 12.7% (6.5%), a Tier-1 capital ratio of 12.7% (8.0%), a Total capital ratio of 13.9% (10.0%) and a Tier-1 leverage ratio of 8.7%7.7% (5.0%), common equity Tier-1 ratio of 12.2% (6.5%), Tier-1 capital ratio of 12.2% (8.0%) and total capital ratio of 13.3% (10.0%). As of December 31, 2016,2022, ASB was well-capitalized (well-capitalized ratio requirements noted in parentheses) with a Tier-1 leverage ratio of 7.8% (5.0%), common equity Tier-1 ratio of 12.2% (6.5%), Tier-1 capital ratio of 12.2%, a Total (8.0%) and total capital ratio of 13.4% and a Tier-1 leverage ratio of 8.6%13.1% (10.0%). All dividends are subject to review by the OCC and FRB and receipt of a letter from the FRB communicating the agencies’ non-objection to the payment of any dividend ASB proposes to declare and pay to HEI (through ASB Hawaii). The ASB Board of Directors determined to suspend its quarterly cash dividends to HEI, starting after the second quarter dividend, to help ensure maximum possible Bank liquidity and capital.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company considers interest-rate risk (a non-trading market risk) to be a very significant market risk for ASB as it could potentially have a significant effectmaterial impacts on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. For additional quantitative and qualitative information about the Company’s market risks, see HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in Part II, Item 7A of HEI’s 20162022 Form 10-K (pages 7978 to 81)80).

Management believes that ASB’s net interest rate risk positionincome (NII) sensitivity profile remained neutral as of September 30, 2017 represents a reasonable level2023 compared to December 31, 2022 as expected asset repricing was relatively matched with liability repricing within the twelve-month simulation period.
Economic value of risk. The NII profile under the rising interest rate scenariosequity (EVE) sensitivity was more asset sensitive for all rate increaseslower as of September 30, 20172023 compared to December 31, 2016. Interest income increased2022 due to the growth of the investment portfolioslower than anticipated mortgage prepayments and higher income from the commercial and HELOC loan portfolios due to an increasea shift in the short-term LIBOR and prime rates. In addition, the repricing assumptions of certain commercial loans were updated, which resulted in a net increase in NII.
ASB’s base EVE increased to $1.15 billionbank’s liability mix as of September 30, 2017, compared to $1.09 billion as of December 31, 2016, due to the growth and mix of the balance sheet. The growth of the investment portfolio was funded with the increase in core deposits. The upward shift in short term rates resulted in the market valuation of assets exceeding the valuation of liabilities.
EVE sensitivity to rising rates declined as of September 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. During the first nine months of the year, the purchase of intermediate-termed duration investment securities was funded by longer duration core deposits resulting in a net decrease in EVE sensitivity. In addition, during the third quarter, the implementation of a new balance sheet management system along with some modeling improvements further decreased sensitivity.were replaced by rate sensitive deposits and shorter term wholesale funding.

The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes on the NII sensitivity and the percentage change in EVE is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments, balance changes and pricing strategies, and should not be relied upon as indicativeindications of actual results. To the extent market conditions

and other factors vary from the assumptions used in the simulation analysis, actual results may differ materially from the simulation results. Furthermore, NII sensitivity analysis measures the change in ASB’s twelve-month, pretax NII in alternate interest rate scenarios, and is intended to help management identify potential exposures in ASB’s current balance sheet and formulate appropriate strategies for managing interest rate risk. The simulation does not contemplate any actions that ASB management might undertake in response to changes in interest rates. Further, the changes in NII vary in the twelve-month simulation period and are not necessarily evenly distributed over the period. These analyses are for analytical purposes only and do not represent management’s views of future market movements, the level of future earnings or the timing of any changes in earnings within the twelve month analysis horizon. The actual impact of changes in interest rates on NII will depend on the magnitude and speed with which rates change, actual changes in ASB’s balance sheet and management’s responses to the changes in interest rates.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
For information about Risk Factors, see pages 2520 to 3533 of HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s 20162022 Form 10-K and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Quantitative and Qualitative


Disclosures about Market Risk” and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein. Also, see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on pages iv through vi herein and v herein.as supplemented below.
Potential losses resulting from the Maui windstorm and wildfires could have a material adverse effect on HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s financial condition, liquidity, cash flows and results of operations. On August 8, 2023, a number of brush fires in the West Maui (Lahaina) and Upcountry Maui areas, caused widespread property damage, including damage to property of the Utilities, and at least 99 fatalities in Lahaina (the Maui windstorm and wildfires). The Maui windstorm and wildfires were fueled by extreme winds and drought-like conditions in those parts of Maui. According to the County of Maui, in addition to the loss of life, over 3,450 acres burned and over 2,500 structures were destroyed. In Lahaina, a fire was reported at about 6:30 a.m. (the “Morning Fire”) and appears to have been caused by power lines that fell in high winds and spread into a field near the Intermediate School. The Maui County Fire Department responded promptly to the Morning Fire, and according to the Fire Department’s public statement that morning, by 9 a.m. the Morning Fire was “100% contained.” The Maui County fire chief subsequently reported that the Fire Department had determined that the Morning Fire was “extinguished.” Shortly before 3 p.m. that day, while the power remained off, Utility crew members saw a small fire in the same field about 75 yards away from Lahainaluna Road. They immediately called 911 and reported the fire (the “Afternoon Fire”). At the time of the Afternoon Fire, the Company’s power lines in the area where that fire ignited were not energized and had not been energized for more than six hours. By the time the Maui County Fire Department arrived back on the scene, it was not able to contain the Afternoon Fire and it spread out of control toward Lahaina. No determination as to the cause of the Afternoon Fire has been made. The Company believes that most of the property damage and all of the fatalities are from the Afternoon Fire.
Multiple lawsuits have been filed against the Utilities and HEI alleging, among other things, that they were negligent in failing to prevent the wildfires that led to the property destruction and loss of life. If the Utilities and HEI are held responsible for damages caused by the Maui windstorm and wildfires, it could have a material impact on HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s financial condition, liquidity, cash flows and results of operations. The Company has $165 million in insurance coverage for third party claims, but the aggregate losses associated with the Maui windstorm and wildfires could significantly exceed that amount. Also, the Company is incurring legal and consulting fees to manage the lawsuits and financial implications related to the Maui windstorm and wildfires, and those amounts are likely to be material.
HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s access to capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financings in a timely manner and on acceptable terms will continue to be negatively impacted as a result of the downgrades in their debt credit ratings to below investment grade. In August 2023, HEI and Hawaiian Electric received multiple downgrades to their debt, including to ratings below investment grade, by Fitch, Moody’s and S&P. Unless and until these debt ratings are upgraded to investment grade, the Company will continue to have restricted access to capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financings in a timely manner and on acceptable terms. Accordingly, the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, cash flows and results of operations may be adversely impacted if debt credit ratings are maintained at below investment grade for an extended period of time.
Extreme weather events and other natural disasters, particularly those exacerbated by climate change, could materially affect Hawaiian Electric’s assets, particularly if they fail or are found to have contributed to a wildfire. Extreme weather-related incidents and other natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions, mudslides, hurricanes, tsunamis and other storms, can interfere with the generation and transmission of electricity, and can seriously damage the infrastructure necessary to deliver electricity to customers.These risks are increasing, as climate change has exacerbated some of the conditions that lead to these extreme weather events and natural disasters. Such an event can result in lost revenue and increased expenses for the Utilities,
100


but it also can result in regulatory penalties and disallowances if Hawaiian Electric is unable to restore power on a timely basis. Also, an extreme event can lead to significant claims for damages, including for loss of life and property, and has been the case with the Maui windstorm and wildfires. Therefore, these events could materially affect the Company’s business, reputation, financial condition and results of operations.
A material reduction or delay of dividends or other distributions from one or more operating subsidiaries to HEI for an extended period of time could have a material adverse effect on HEI’s financial condition, liquidity, cash flows and results of operations. As a holding company with no significant operations of its own, HEI’s cash flows and consequent ability to service its obligations is dependent upon its receipt of dividends or other distributions from its operating subsidiaries and its ability to issue common stock or other equity securities and to incur additional debt. A material reduction or delay in dividends or other distributions by one or both of Hawaiian Electric and ASB for an extended period of time could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
