NEGATIVE IMPACT
Bank of Hawaii's Q4 report showed a mixed performance with a slight EPS beat and a revenue miss. Net interest income suffered a significant year-over-year decline, but the bank maintained its dividend payout.
The revenue miss and significant decline in net interest income are likely to concern investors, overshadowing the slight EPS beat. The lack of share repurchases could also be viewed negatively, although the dividend announcement may provide some support. Overall, the negative aspects could lead to a short-term negative impact on the stock price.
