Note 1.        Name Change

        On April 25, 1997, the company's name was changed from Bancorp
Hawaii, Inc. to Pacific Century Financial Corporation.  The change was
made to better reflect the company's strategic goals to grow in Hawaii
and throughout the Pacific and to position it as a full-service
financial provider.  Bank of Hawaii will maintain its name along with
First Federal Savings & Loan Association of America, however, several
of the company's other subsidiaries will adopt the name Pacific Century
and the name will be applied to financial products offered by the
company.

Note 2.         Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In
the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, including
adjustments related to completed acquisitions which are necessary for a
fair presentation of the results for the interim periods, and should be
read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes included in Pacific Century's 1996 Annual Report to
Shareholders.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31,
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ending December 31, 1997.

        Certain reclassifications have been made from prior year amounts
to conform to the 1997 presentation.

Note 3.         Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 1996, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishment of Liabilities" was issued.  SFAS No. 125
establishes the accounting for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and extinguishment of liabilities.  In the first quarter of
1997, there was no impact of SFAS No. 125.  In accordance with the
statement, an entity recognizes the financial assets it controls and
the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when
control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when
extinguished.  The statement also requires that servicing assets and
other retained interests in the transferred assets be measured by
allocating the previous carrying amount between the assets sold, if
any, and retained interests, if any, based on their relative fair
values at the date of transfer.  Servicing assets and liabilities would
subsequently be measured by (a) amortization in proportion to and over
the period of estimated net servicing income or loss and (b) assessment
for asset impairment or increased obligation based on their fair
values.  The statement is effective for transfers and servicing of
financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after
December 31, 1996.  In October 1996 Financial Accounting Standards
Board (Board) issued SFAS No. 127 which deferred for one year
paragraphs 9-12 (Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets) for securities lending, repurchase agreements, dollar rolls,
and other similar secured transactions.  The Board also agreed to defer
for one year paragraph 15 (Secured borrowings and Collateral) for all
transactions.

        In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share" and SFAS No. 129, "Capital Structure".  SFAS No. 128 simplifies
the calculation of earnings per share (EPS) and makes it comparable to
international standards.  SFAS No. 129 consolidates the existing
guidance from several other pronouncements relating to an entity's
capital structure.

        SFAS No. 128 is effective for both interim and annual financial
statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997.   Earlier
application is not permitted.  Under SFAS No. 128, basic EPS for the
first quarter would have been $0.89 and dilutive EPS $0.88.

        Under SFAS No. 128 primary EPS is replaced with a calculation
called basic EPS.  Basic EPS is calculated by dividing income available
to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period.  Fully diluted EPS has not changed
significantly but has been renamed diluted EPS.  Under the new rules,
income available to common shareholders should be adjusted for the
assumed conversion of all potentially dilutive securities.  The
treasury stock method is used to calculate the dilutive effect of
options and warrants.  The treasury stock method is applied using the
average market price of the company's common stock during the period
rather than the higher of the average market price or the ending market
price.  The dilutive effect of convertible debt or convertible
preferred stock will be calculated using the if-converted method, which
assumes conversion at the beginning of the period if the effect is
dilutive.

Note 4.         Mergers and Acquisitions

        In February 1997, Bank of Hawaii International Inc. acquired 100%
of the Indosuez Niugini Bank, Ltd. from Indosuez Bank, Ltd. for
approximately $5.6 million.  Indosuez Niugini Bank, Ltd. has been
renamed Bank of Hawaii (PNG), Ltd.  At March 31, 1997 the Bank has
approximately $93 million in total assets.  As a result of the
acquisition the Bank recognized $2.5 million in goodwill and will
amortize it over 15 years.  The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase.

        In March 1997, Pacific Century Bank, N.A. (PCB), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Pacific Century purchased approximately $254 million in
deposits from Home Savings located in Tucson, Arizona.  As a result of
the purchase, PCB now has a combined total of ten branches servicing
customers in the greater Phoenix vicinity, Tucson and Yuma, Arizona. 
Pacific Century paid approximately $19.7 million for the core deposit
base, deposit premium intangibles and other items.

        On February 24, 1997, Pacific Century announced the signing of a
definitive agreement for Pacific Century to acquire CU Bancorp and its
subsidiary bank, California United Bank, a $844 million asset financial
institution with 21 branches in Westwood, the San Gabriel and San
Fernando valleys, the South Bay, and Ventura and Orange counties in
southern California.  Under terms of the agreement, which is subject to
federal and state regulators and shareholder approval, CU Bancorp stock
will be converted into rights to receive $15.34 per share in cash
and/or Pacific Century stock.  At least 60% and not more than 80% of CU
Bancorp's stock will be subject to stock-for-stock conversion.  The
total merger consideration will be approximately $183 million.  Pacific
Century estimates the merger will be completed in the third quarter of
1997 and will be accounted for as a purchase.

        The provision for income taxes is computed by applying statutory
federal and state income tax rates to income before income taxes as
reported in the financial statements after deducting non-taxable items,
principally from state taxes, net of federal income tax and foreign tax
adjustments, low income housing and investment tax credits and tax
exempt interest income.

Financial Review


Performance Highlights

        Pacific Century Financial Corporation (Pacific Century) reported
earnings for the first quarter of 1997 of $35.5 million, an increase of
8.5% over the earnings reported for the first quarter of 1996.  On a
per share basis, earnings were $0.88 for the first quarter of 1997,
compared with $0.79 for the same quarter a year ago. The improvement in
net income reflects a stronger net interest margin and higher level of
earning assets comparing the first quarters of 1996 and 1997.  The
improved earnings were also affected by the May 1996 acquisition of
Banque de Tahiti (BDT) and Banque de Nouvelle Caledonie (BNC).

        Pacific Century's annualized Return on Average Assets and Return
on Average Equity were 1.02% and 13.40%, respectively for the first
quarter of 1997.  These ratios compare with 0.99% and 12.43%,
respectively for the twelve months ended December 31, 1996.  The ratio
of average equity to average assets was 7.64% for the first quarter of
1997, compared with 7.95% for all of 1996.

        Total assets remained level from year-end 1996 at $14.0 billion as
of March 31, 1997.  Compared to the asset balances at March 31, 1996,
assets have increased 8.4%, which largely reflected the BDT and BNC
acquisition.  Net loans outstanding increased from year-end 1996 to
$8.4 billion representing a 5.7% increase from March 31, 1996.  Again,
the increase from March 31, 1996 reflects the change due to the
acquisition.  Deposits and securities sold under agreements to
repurchase (Repos) ended March 31, 1997 at $11.1 billion.

        Non-performing assets (NPA) ended March 31, 1997 at $87.6 million. 
Comparing year-end 1996 and March 31, 1996, NPA balances reflect a
change from $83.2 million and $62.9 million, respectively.  A further
discussion on NPAs and the Reserve for Loan Loss follows later in this
report.

        Non-interest income, compared with the same quarter last year, was
up 16.8% to $43.8 million for the first quarter of 1997.  This
improvement was primarily due to the previously discussed acquisitions. 
Efforts in the non-interest income categories continue to be important 
to Pacific Century and as the results indicate, progress is being made
with all categories reporting increases over the prior year.  A further
discussion follows later in this report.

        Total non-interest expense was $109.7 million for the first
quarter of 1997 compared with $97.6 million for the same quarter in
1996.  A significant part of the increase in non-interest expense was
due to the acquisition of BDT and BNC.  The growth in total non-
interest expense remained at levels in line with Pacific Century's
expectations.  A further discussion on non-interest expense follows.


Risk Elements in Lending Activities

        At March 31, 1997, total loans were $8.8 billion, a 0.6% increase
from year-end 1996 and 6.1% above total loan balances on March 31,
1996.  The changes in other components of the portfolio are discussed
in the following section.  The following table presents Pacific
Century's total loan portfolio balances for the periods indicated.

===================================================================================



Commercial and Industrial Loans

        Commercial and Industrial loans outstanding were relatively
consistent at $1.8 billion as of March 31, 1997, year-end 1996 and
March 31, 1996.  The limited growth of loans in this category reflects
the lackluster Hawaii economy.  The mix of lending in this category
remains much as reported at year-end 1996.


Real Estate Loans

        Total real estate loans at March 31, 1997 totaled $4.1 billion,
virtually level with year-end 1996 and 4.65% below totals at March 31,
1996.  The change in balances in these loans reflect the securitization
of $350 million in residential mortgage loans in the second quarter of
1996.  A detailed distribution of the real estate loan portfolio is
presented in the Loan Portfolio Table. Commercial real estate balances
(including construction) on March 31, 1997 totaled $1.4 billion,
compared to $1.5 billion on March 31, 1996 and $1.4 billion at year-end
1996.   Residential mortgage balances on March 31, 1996 totaled $2.8
billion, decreasing to $2.7 billion at March 31, 1997.  Construction
loan balances (commercial and residential) have increased to $243.9
million on March 31, 1997 from $235.9 million at year-end 1996, and
$215.4 million reported at March 31, 1996.


Other Lending

        Installment loans and leases have grown modestly from year-end
1996 balances.  At March 31, 1997, total installment loans were $853.5
million, compared with $849.3 million reported at year-end 1996. 
Compared with the same date in 1996 when installment loan balances were
$816.7 million, installment loan balances are up 4.51%.  Total leases
increased to $441.4 million from $437.8 million at year-end 1996 and
$388.8 million at March 31, 1996.  

        Foreign loan balances grew to $1,532.9 million, reflecting an
increase of 1.76% from year-end 1996, and 78.26% above March 31, 1996
balances.  The rise in the foreign loan total from a year ago mainly
reflects the acquisition of BDT and BNC and supported increased trade
financing activity in the Asian branches.  At March 31, 1997, BDT and
BNC reported loans outstanding of $621.9 million.

Non-Performing Assets and Past Due Loans

        Pacific Century's non-performing assets (NPA) include non-accrual
loans and foreclosed real estate.  NPA totaled $87.6 million,
representing 1.00% of total loans outstanding at March 31, 1997.  This
ratio was 0.76% at the end of the first quarter 1996 and 0.96% at year-
end 1996.

        Non-accrual loans increased during the quarter to $76.3 million
from $72.5 million at year-end 1996 and from $53.7 million on March 31,
1996.  The distribution of the non-accrual loans by category is
disclosed in the table following.  Most categories have reported little
change since year-end 1996 except residential mortgage loans which have
increased to $29.4 million as of March 31, 1997.  The loans included in
the foreign category are all BDT and BNC loans.

        The foreclosed real estate category remained close to year-end
1996 totals, ending the quarter at $11.3 million.  There were only 24
properties in Other Real Estate at the quarter-end with the two largest
properties valued at $7.5 million.  Total non-performing assets,
including loans 90 days past due, represented 1.34% of loans
outstanding compared with 1.36% at year-end 1996 and 1.02% at March 31,
1996.

        Accruing 90 day past due loans in total have decreased from $34.7
million at year-end 1996 to $29.9 million at March 31, 1997. 
Comparatively, $21.3 million in accruing 90 day past due loans were
reported at March 31, 1996.  

        Since year-end, past due loans have decreased particularly in the
commercial real estate and foreign loan categories.  Installment loans
past due 90 days increased to $10.2 million, representing 1.20% of
total installment loans at March 31, 1997.  Residential mortgage loans
past due 90 days remained at $6.8 million, 0.26% of total residential
mortgage loans.  Foreign loans decreased to $8.5 million, 0.55% of
total foreign loans.

        The following table presents NPA and past due loans for the
periods indicated.

Capital

        Pacific Century's total at March 31, 1997 totaled $1.1 billion. 
New shares issued for the profit sharing, stock option and dividend
reinvestment plans increased capital by $5.2 million during the
quarter.  Under Pacific Century's stock repurchase programs, $18.0
million in shares were repurchased during the first quarter of 1997. 
Dividends for the quarter were $11.9 million, compared with $11.5
million for the first quarter of 1996.  Dividends paid were $0.30 per
share for the first quarter of 1997 and $0.28 per share for the first
quarter of 1996.  

        Regulatory risk-based capital remains well above minimum
guidelines.  Pacific Century's Total Capital and Tier 1 Capital ratios
were 12.97% and 10.58%, respectively.  This compares with year-end
1996, when the Total Capital Ratio was 12.96% and the Tier 1 Capital
Ratio was 10.57%.  Regulatory guidelines prescribe a minimum Total
Capital Ratio of 10.00% and a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 6.00% for an
institution to qualify as well capitalized.  These ratios reflect the
fourth quarter issuance of $100 million Capital Securities by
Bancorp Hawaii Capital Trust I, a subsidiary of Pacific Century. 
Pacific Century's strategy is to maintain its capital ratios at levels
to meet this qualification to benefit from the financial and
regulatory incentives provided to well capitalized institutions.

        In addition, the leverage ratio, which represents the ratio of
Tier 1 Capital to Total Average Assets, was 7.90% at March 31, 1997,
compared to 7.72% at March 31, 1996 and 7.98% at year-end 1996.  The
required minimum ratio is 5.00%, to qualify an institution as well
capitalized.


Spread Management

        The average net interest margin or spread on earning assets for
the first quarter of 1997 was 4.02%, an increase from the 3.81%
reported for the same period in 1996, and also an increase from the
3.84% reported for the fourth quarter of 1996.  Net interest margin
for all of 1996 was 3.84%.  The minimal growth in earning assets, the
changes in interest rates and the acquisition of BDT and BNC have all
helped to improve the spread.

        The earning asset yield was 7.93% for the first quarter of 1997,
compared with the first quarter 1996 yield of 7.78% and the fourth
quarter of 1996 of 7.83%.  The earning asset yield for all of 1996 was
7.83%.  The cost of funds rate for the first quarter of 1997 was
4.70%, an increase compared with the same quarter a year ago 
and 4.82% reported for the fourth quarter of 1996.  The cost of funds
for all of 1996 was 4.73%.

Interest Rate Risk and Derivatives

        As discussed in Pacific Century's 1996 Annual Report, Pacific
Century utilizes interest rate sensitivity analysis and computer
simulation techniques to measure the exposure of its earnings to
interest rate movements.  The objective of the process is to position
its balance sheet to optimize earnings without unduly increasing risk. 
The Interest Rate Sensitivity Table presents the traditional method of
quantifying the possible exposure to interest rate movements for
various time frames at March 31, 1997.  As the table indicates,
Pacific Century's one year cumulative asset sensitivity gap totaled
$0.7 billion, representing 4.9% of total assets.  Comparatively, the
one year cumulative gap was $0.4 billion at year-end 1996, 2.6% of
total assets.  Simulation models are also utilized by Pacific Century
to measure the interest rate sensitivity of its balance sheet.  These
models simulate changes in interest rates and project the impact on
Pacific Century's net interest income.  The results of these
simulations are all within established guidelines.

        Pacific Century used swaps as a cost effective risk management
tool for dealing with interest rate risk from time to time.  No new
swaps were entered into during the first quarter of 1997.  At March
31, 1997, the notional amount of swaps totaled $0.5 billion, compared 
with $0.7 billion at year-end 1996 and $1.0 billion a year ago.  Net
expense on interest rate swap agreements totaled $0.5 million for the
first quarter of 1997.  Comparatively, net expense of $1.2 million was
recognized in the first quarter of 1996 and $4.2 million for all of
1996.

(2) Includes the effect of estimated amortization.
(3) Historical analysis shows that these deposit categories, while technically subject to immediate withdrawal,
actually display sensitivity characteristics that generally fall within one and five years.  The allocation
presented is based on that historic analysis.

Liquidity

        The ability to meet day-to-day financial needs of Pacific
Century's customer base is essential.  Much of the strategy of meeting
liquidity needs was described in Pacific Century's 1996 Annual Report
and remains in place.

        At March 31, 1997, deposits were $9.1 billion, compared to $8.7
billion and $7.3 billion reported at year-end 1996 and March 31, 1996,
respectively.  Most of the increase since March 1996 was attributed to
the acquisition of BDT and BNC in May 1996.  The competition for
deposits, not only by banks and savings and loan companies, but also
by securities brokerage firms continues to impact the level of
deposits.  Repos which are offered to government depositors as an
alternative to deposits were $2.0 billion at March 31, 1997, compared
to $2.0 billion on March 31, 1996, and $2.1 billion at year-end 1996.

        Short term borrowings, including Fed Funds, decreased to $0.7
billion at March 31, 1997, compared with $0.9 billion at year-end 1996
and $1.1 billion at March 31, 1996.  Long term debt decreased to $0.7
billion at March 31, 1997 from $0.9 billion at year-end 1996 and $1.1
billion at March 31, 1996.  Long term debt outstanding included $100
million of Capital Securities issued by Pacific Century in Bancorp
Hawaii Capital Trust I, a subsidiary of Pacific Century in December
1996.


Non-Interest Income and Expense

        Pacific Century utilizes the efficiency ratio to measure its
success in managing non-interest income and non-interest expense. 
Pacific Century determines its efficiency ratio by dividing non-
interest expense by the sum of net interest income and non-interest
income (excluding securities transactions).  For the first quarter of
1997, Pacific Century's ratio was 63.8% compared with 64.6% for all of
1996.  The non-interest income and non-interest expense components of
the efficiency ratio are discussed following.

==============================================================================================================


        Non-interest expense in the first quarter was $109.7 million, an
increase of 12.4% over the same period in 1996.  The acquisition of
BDT and BNC in May of 1996 affect the comparison between the first
quarters of 1997 and 1996.  Without the BDT and BNC expense, the
change between quarters would have been an increase of 0.5%.

        Salary and benefit expenses increased 13.0% between the first
quarters of 1997 and 1996, primarily due to the BDT and BNC
acquisition.  Comparing fourth quarter 1996 salary and benefits with
the first quarter of 1997, this category of expense increased 8.2%
reflecting the increase in payroll taxes, mainly FICA.
        
        Premises and equipment expenses totaled $19.4 million for the
first quarter of 1997, an increase from the $18.5 million for the same
period of 1996.  Pacific Century continues to invest in technology as
more efficient operations with existing staff counts become
increasingly important.                 

        Other operating expense for the first quarter of 1997 totaled
$33.4 million and increased 16.0% compared to the same quarter in
1996.  Without BDT and BNC expense in 1997, the decrease would have
been 8.7% between the quarters.
