Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

  CPB Inc. (the "Company") posted third quarter 1997 net income
of $3.823 million, increasing by 1.8% over the $3.757 million
earned in the third quarter of 1996.  Net income for the first
nine months of 1997 was $11.094 million, increasing by 1.9% over
the $10.888 million earned in the same period in 1996.  Increases
in net interest income in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997 contributed to the increase in earnings,
offsetting increases of $800,000 and $1.4 million, respectively,
in provision for loan losses.  As of September 30, 1997, total
assets of $1,442.2 million increased by $39.0 million or 2.8%,
net loans of $1,024.7 million increased by $2.2 million or 0.2%,
and total deposits of $1,140.9 million increased by $17.3 million
or 1.5% compared with year-end 1996.  On October 8, 1997, the
Company's board of directors (the "Board") approved a two-for-one
stock split effective  November 14, 1997, on common stock
outstanding as of October 20, 1997.  All financial information
presented in this report has been adjusted for the two-for-one
stock split.

  Hawaii's economy shows little sign of recovery in the near
future, with expected real growth of 1% over the next three to
five years and 1.5% to 2% growth thereafter.  Business failures
in the first half of 1997 of 29% were ahead of the national
average of 13%.  Debts involved in local business failures soared
from $31.6 million for the first half of 1996 to $53.3 million in
1997, a 68.9% increase.  Declining real estate values helped keep
inflation at 0.9%, less than half the nation's average of 2.3%. 
Reflecting some improvement in the economy, the unemployment rate
improved to 6.1% in September 1997, from 6.5% a year earlier,
still higher than the September 1997 national average of 4.7%.

  The visitor industry has sustained the economy in recent
years.  However, despite a 4.8% increase in visitors in September
1997 over September 1996, visitor counts during the first nine
months of 1997 declined by 0.4% from 1996 levels.  A $6.0 million
marketing campaign launched in Japan and the recent completion of
the Hawaii Convention Center are expected to contribute to
additional tourism activity in the future.

  The real estate market continues to suffer from the economic
downturn but has shown some signs of a turnaround.  The average
single-family home sales price for the first nine months of 1997
decreased 4.8% compared to the first nine months of 1996, while
single-family and condominium sales volumes for the first nine
months of 1997 increased by 6.8% over last year.  An increase in
sales activity of high-end residential properties in recent
months also suggests that the real estate market has stabilized.

  Such economic conditions have had, and will likely continue to
have, an adverse effect on our Company.  Indicative of this
economic environment, Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has experienced an
increase in residential mortgage and consumer loan losses as
further discussed in "Provision for Loan Losses."  While the
Hawaii economy is expected to grow modestly in 1997, future
trends in bankruptcy and foreclosure filings, employment, tourism

2

and the real estate market could affect loan demand, deposit
growth, provision for loan losses, noninterest income and
noninterest expense.  Accordingly, the results of operations of
the Company for the rest of 1997 will depend in part on the
speed, strength and duration of any economic recovery in the
State of Hawaii.

  Much publicity has been given to the "Year 2000" issue and the
ability of computer systems to function properly in the new
millennium.  The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of
its computer systems to identify potential problems and develop
plans to resolve those problems.  In response to this situation,
the Bank has undertaken a major computer system conversion
project which will bring its core banking applications into the
"Year 2000" compliance.  Additional efforts are being made to
modify or replace other noncompliant software, systems and
equipment before the year 1999.  Further, the Company is aware of
the risks to third parties, including vendors, depositors and
borrowers, and the potential adverse impact on the Company
resulting from failures by these parties to adequately address
the "Year 2000" problem.  The  Company has expended, and will
continue to expend, substantial resources to address this issue
on a timely basis.  However, no estimate of the expected total
cost of this effort can be made at this time, nor can any
assurance be given that the "Year 2000" problem will not have an
adverse impact on the Company's earnings.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income
  A comparison of net interest income for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 is set forth below on a
taxable equivalent basis using an assumed income tax rate of 35%. 
Net interest income, when expressed as a percentage of average
interest earning assets, is referred to as "net interest margin".

Net interest margin           5.07%     4.86%     4.89%     4.91%

  Interest income increased by $2.8 million or 10.9% and by $4.4
million or 5.6% in the third quarter and first nine months of
1997, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1996, due
to the higher level of earning assets held in 1997.  Average
interest earning assets of $1,364.5 million and $1,349.2 million
for the third quarter and first nine months of 1997, 

3

respectively, increased by $83.4 million or 6.5% and $69.0
million or 5.4%, respectively, over the same periods in 1996. 
The yield on interest earning assets of 8.42% for the third
quarter of 1997 increased from 8.09%, and the yield of 8.16% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 increased from 8.15%
compared to same periods in 1996.  Interest income and yields for
the third quarter and first nine months of 1997 were bolstered by
the recognition of $720,000 in interest income on the payoff of a
$5.9 million nonaccrual loan.

  Interest and fees on loans increased by $1.5 million or 6.9%
and $2.6 million or 3.9% in the third quarter and first nine
months of 1997, respectively, compared to the same periods in
1996.  Increases in average loan balances resulted in increased
interest income, offsetting a $700,000 decline in loan fees for
the first nine months of 1997. Interest on deposits in other
banks also increased by $491,000 and $1.7 million, respectively,
due to an increase in short-term investable funds held during the
current year.

  Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1997 increased by $1.1 million or 10.6% and $2.0 million or
6.4%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1996, due
to increases in average interest-bearing liabilities of $78.9
million or 7.5% and $56.5 million or 5.4%, respectively.  The
average rate on interest-bearing liabilities for the third
quarter of 1997 of 4.06% increased from 3.95% in 1996, while the
average rate for the first nine months of 1997 as compared to the
same period in 1996 increased to 3.98% from 3.94%.

  The resulting net interest income for the third quarter and
first nine months of 1997 increased by $1.7 million or 11.1% and 
$2.4 million or 5.0%, respectively, over the same periods in
1996.  Net interest margin increased to 5.07% from 4.86% in the
third quarter but decreased to 4.89% from 4.91% in the first nine
months of 1997 compared to the same periods in 1996.  Strong
competition for both loans and deposits and the uncertainty in
the direction of market interest rates provide the Company with
the challenge of maintaining net interest margin at its current
level for the remainder of 1997.

Provision for Loan Losses
  Provision for loan losses is determined by Management's
ongoing evaluation of the loan portfolio and assessment of the
ability of the allowance for loan losses to cover inherent
losses.  The Company, considering current information and events
regarding a borrower's ability to repay its obligations, treats a
loan as impaired when it is probable that the Company will be
unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual
terms of the loan agreement.  When a loan is considered to be
impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the
loan's effective interest rate or, if the loan is considered to 

4

be collateral dependent, based on the fair value of the
collateral.  Impairment losses are included in the allowance for
loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. 
For smaller-balance homogeneous loans (primarily residential real
estate and consumer loans), the allowance for loan losses is
based upon Management's evaluation of the quality, character and
risks inherent in the loan portfolio, current and projected
economic conditions, and historical loan loss experience.  The
allowance is increased by provisions charged to operating expense
and reduced by loan charge-offs, net of recoveries.

  The following table sets forth certain information with
respect to the Company's allowance for loan losses as of the
dates and for the periods indicated.

  The provision for loan losses of $1.3 million and $2.8 million
for the third quarter and first nine months of 1997 increased by
177.8%  and 103.7%, respectively, compared to the same periods in
1996, reflecting the higher level of loan losses recognized
during 1997.  Net loan charge-offs of $1.4 million and $3.1
million, when expressed as an annualized percentage of average
total loans, was 0.54% and 0.39%, respectively.  Loan charge-offs
during the third quarter of 1997 included $472,000 on a
commercial mortgage and $254,000 on a commercial loan to a
borrower in the hotel industry.  Consumer loans comprised
approximately 30% of all loans charged off during the first nine
months of 1997, compared to 19% in 1996.  Management believes the
current level of provision for loan losses is indicative of
Hawaii's stagnant economic environment over the last several
years.  Notwithstanding the increase in net loan charge-offs in
the first nine months of 1997 compared to the same period in
1996, the Company's net loan charge-offs remained relatively low
as a percentage of average loans.

  The allowance for loan losses expressed as a percentage of
total loans was 1.83% at September 30, 1997, declining slightly
from 1.87% at December 31, 1996.  Management believes that the
allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1997 was adequate to
cover the credit risks inherent in the loan portfolio.  However,
continuation of current economic conditions in the State of
Hawaii may adversely affect borrowers' ability to repay, 

6

collateral values and, consequently, the level of nonperforming
loans and provision for loan losses.

  Nonperforming assets, loans delinquent for 90 days or more and
restructured loans still accruing interest totaled $27.7 million
at September 30, 1997, decreasing by $6.1 million or 18.2% from
year-end 1996.  Nonaccrual loans, loans delinquent for 90 days or
more and restructured loans still accruing interest were
comprised primarily of loans secured by commercial or residential

8

real property in the State of Hawaii.  Nonaccrual loans of $11.1
million included one unsecured commercial loan of $1.0 million,
three large commercial mortgage loans and several residential
mortgage loans.  Other real estate of $3.9 million at September
30, 1997 included a $1.3 million condominium unit, a $1.5 million
residence and several other residential properties.  Loans
delinquent for 90 days or more and still accruing interest
totaled $10.0 million at September 30, 1997, increasing by $3.7
million or 59.1% from year-end 1996.  Increases in delinquencies
were attributable primarily to a $2.4 million mortgage on a
residential complex on the island of Oahu and a $1.8 million
commercial loan secured by various commercial and residential
properties.  Impaired loans at September 30, 1997 totaled $13.3
million and included all nonaccrual and restructured loans
greater than $500,000, as well as the $1.8 million delinquent
loan discussed above.  The allowance for loan losses allocated to
impaired loans amounted to $2.6 million at September 30, 1997.

  Management continues to closely monitor loan delinquencies and
work with borrowers to resolve loan problems; however, a further
decline in general economic conditions may result in future
increases in nonperforming assets, delinquencies, net loan
charge-offs, provision for loan losses and noninterest expense.

Other Operating Income
  Total other operating income in the third quarter of 1997 of
$2.8 million increased by $59,000 or 2.2% over the third quarter
of 1996.  Total other operating income for the first nine months
of 1997 totaling $8.0 million increased by $19,000 or 0.2% from
the same period in 1996.  Increases in trust fees and service
charges on deposits combined to offset declines in foreign
exchange fees and earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries.

Other Operating Expense
  Total other operating expense of $12.4 million for the third
quarter of 1997 increased by $866,000 or 7.5% over the same
period in 1996.  This increase was attributed to a combination of
accruals related to the Bank's incentive compensation programs
and a profitability enhancement project.

  Total other operating expense of $36.2 million for the first
nine months of 1997 increased by $657,000 or 1.8% over the same
period in 1996.  In addition to the abovementioned expenses,
increased write-downs and operating expenses related to other
real estate owned contributed to the increase in other operating
expenses.

Income Taxes
  The effective tax rate for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1997 was 37.95% and 38.73%, respectively, compared with
the previous year's rates of 39.51% and 39.63%, respectively. 
The decrease in tax rates for 1997 resulted from an increase in
tax-exempt investments and loans held during 1997.

Financial Condition

  Total assets at September 30, 1997 of $1,442.2 million
increased by $39.0 million or 2.8% from December 31, 1996. 
Investment securities of $286.5 million increased by $46.0
million or 19.1%, and net loans of $1,024.7 million increased by
$2.2 million or 0.2%.  This asset growth was funded primarily
through an increase in deposits and borrowings from the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Seattle which are included in long-term debt.

  Total deposits at September 30, 1997 of $1,140.9 million
increased by $17.3 million or 1.5% over year-end 1996. 
Noninterest-bearing deposits of $151.9 million decreased by $16.3
million or 9.7%, while interest-bearing deposits of $989.0
million increased by $33.6 million or 3.5%.  Core deposits
(noninterest-bearing demand, interest-bearing demand and savings
deposits, and time deposits under $100,000) at September 30, 1997
of $842.7 million decreased by $16.5 million or 1.9% during the
first nine months of 1997, while time deposits of $100,000 or
more of $298.2 million increased by $33.8 million or 12.8%.  The
decrease in core deposits reflected declines of $6.5 million in
business checking accounts and $5.3 million in personal savings
accounts.  Local competition for deposits remains strong and will
continue to challenge the bank's ability to gather low-cost
retail funds.

Capital Resources

  Stockholders' equity of $149.1 million at September 30, 1997
increased by $8.2 million or 5.8% from December 31, 1996.  When
expressed as a percentage of total assets, stockholders' equity
increased to 10.34% at September 30, 1997, compared to 10.04% at
December 31, 1996.  On September 15, 1997, the Board declared a
third quarter cash dividend of $0.12 per share, bringing total
dividends declared to $0.36 per share for the first nine months
of 1997, consistent with the dividends declared during the same
period in 1996.  Dividends declared in the first nine months of
1997 totaled $3,801,000 compared with $3,792,000 in the first
nine months of 1996.  The Company's objective with respect to
capital resources is to maintain a level of capital that will
support sustained asset growth and anticipated credit risks and
to ensure that regulatory guidelines and industry standards are
met.

  Regulations on capital adequacy guidelines adopted by the
Federal Reserve Board (the "FRB") and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") are as follows.  An
institution is required to maintain a minimum ratio of qualifying
total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%, of which at least 4%
must consist of Tier I capital, essentially common stockholders'
equity (before unrealized loss on investment securities) less
intangible assets.  The FRB and the FDIC have also adopted a
minimum leverage ratio of Tier I capital to total assets of 3%.  

10

The leverage ratio requirement establishes the minimum level for
banks that have a uniform composite ("CAMELS") rating of 1, and
all other institutions and institutions experiencing or
anticipating significant growth are expected to maintain capital
levels at least 100 to 200 basis points above the minimum level. 
Furthermore, higher leverage and risk-based capital ratios are
required to be considered well capitalized or adequately
capitalized under the prompt corrective action provisions of the
FDIC Improvement Act of 1991.

  The following table sets forth the capital requirements
applicable to the Company and the Company's capital ratios as of
the dates indicated.

                           Required         Actual         Excess

At September 30, 1997:
  Tier I risk-based
     capital ratio            4.00%         12.41%          8.41%
  Total risk-based
     capital ratio            8.00%         13.66%          5.66%
  Leverage capital ratio      4.00%         10.31%          6.31%

At December 31, 1996:
  Tier I risk-based
     capital ratio            4.00%         12.10%          8.10%
  Total risk-based
     capital ratio            8.00%         13.35%          5.35%
  Leverage capital ratio      4.00%         10.28%          6.28%

  In addition, FDIC-insured institutions such as the Bank must
maintain leverage, Tier I and total risk-based capital ratios of
at least 5%, 6% and 10%, respectively, to be considered "well
capitalized" under the prompt corrective action provisions of the
FDIC Improvement Act of 1991.

the Bank to be considered "well capitalized" and the Bank's
capital ratios as of the dates indicated.

CPB INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of Presentation

  The financial information included herein is unaudited, except
for the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1996. 
However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting
solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the
interim periods.

  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.

2.  Two-For-One Stock Split

  On October 8, 1997, the "Board" declared a two-for-one split
of CPB Inc. common stock (the "Stock Split").  Each shareholder
receives one additional share of common stock for each share
owned as of October 20, 1997, the record date.  Payment date is
November 14, 1997.  Based on the 5,289,592 shares of CPB Inc.
common stock outstanding as of the record date, the Stock Split
would double the number of outstanding shares of 10,579,184 after
the payment date.  Authorized shares will double to 50,000,000
shares. 
    
  The Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan, which was approved by
its shareholders in 1997, authorizes the granting of a maximum of
500,000 shares to participants.  After adjustment for the Stock
Split, said shares total 1,000,000 of which 253,400 shares were
granted as of September 30, 1997, none of which were exercisable.

  The Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan expired in 1996.  Options
granted from the plan which were exercisable at September 30,
1997 totaled 262,086 shares after adjustment for the Stock Split.

  The Company's share purchase agreement with The Sumitomo Bank,
Ltd. ("Sumitomo") provides Sumitomo the opportunity to purchase
an amount of securities which will allow it to maintain its
13.734% level of ownership of the Company's capital stock.  As of
September 30, 1997, pursuant to this share purchase agreement,
the Company has issued warrants giving Sumitomo the right to
purchase 32,380 shares, after adjustment for the Stock Split. 
Further explanation of the share purchase agreement is presented
in "Certain Transactions" on page 14 of the Company's Proxy
Statement for its Annual Meeting of Shareholders which was held
on April 22, 1997.

  The financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q as of and
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
reflect the effects of the Stock Split.

3.  Accounting Pronouncements

  In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the
"FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."  SFAS No.
125 provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities
based on consistent application of a financial-components
approach that focuses on control, distinguishing transfers of
financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured
borrowings.  In December 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 127,
"Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of FASB
Statement No. 125."  SFAS No. 127 defers the effective date of
certain provisions of SFAS No. 125 to transactions occurring
after December 31, 1997.  In January 1997, the Company
implemented those provisions of SFAS No. 125 which were not
subject to deferral by SFAS No. 127.  However, servicing assets
were deemed immaterial, and accordingly, no disclosures will be
made, as permitted by SFAS No. 125.  Further, the Company does
not expect the future application of SFAS No. 125 to the
transactions covered under SFAS No. 127 to have a material impact
on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of
operations or liquidity.

  In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share," and SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about
Capital Structure."  SFAS No. 128 simplifies the calculation of
earnings per share and revises related disclosure requirements. 
SFAS No. 129 consolidates existing guidance relating to an
entity's capital structure.  SFAS No. 128 is effective for
interim periods and fiscal years ending after December 15, 1997. 
Earlier application is not permitted.  SFAS No. 129 is effective
for financial statements for periods ending after December 15,
1997.  The adoption of these statements is not expected to be
material on the Company's financial condition, results of
operations or liquidity. 

  In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information."  SFAS No. 130
requires that changes in comprehensive income be reported in a
financial statement.  Comprehensive income is defined as all
changes in equity, including net income, except those resulting
from investments by and distributions to owners.  SFAS No. 131
requires public companies to report selected quarterly
information about business segments, including information on
products and services, geographic areas and major customers,
based on a management approach to reporting.  SFAS No. 130 and
131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997, although SFAS No. 131 need not be applied to interim
periods in the initial year of implementation. Reclassification
of financial statements for prior periods will be required for 

F-5

comparative purposes.  As these statements relate solely to
disclosure requirements, their implementation will not have an
affect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations or liquidity.
