Bank of Hawaii records jump in second-quarter profit

Advertiser Staff

Bank of Hawaii Corp. reported net profit climbed to $47.7 million, or 95 cents a share, in the second quarter.

That was a 28 percent increase from a year earlier, when the Honolulu-based company earned $37.2 million, or 72 cents a share.

This year's results were helped by an increase in noninterest income and a gain on the disposal of leased equipment.
