HONOLULU , Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — First Hawaiian, Inc. (NASDAQ: FHB) (“First Hawaiian” or the “Company”) announced today that Alan Arizumi, vice chairman of First Hawaiian, Inc. and First Hawaiian Bank, will retire effective April 3, 2026, following more than 40 years of service.

“Alan has been a key member of our senior management team and has made lasting contributions to First Hawaiian Bank,” said Bob Harrison, chairman, president and CEO. “His leadership across multiple areas of the bank reflects the breadth of his experience and his commitment to developing people and serving our communities.”

Arizumi joined First Hawaiian Bank in 1983 and has served on the senior management committee since 2009. He has led the wealth management group since 2013 and previously held senior leadership roles in risk management, business and card services, and across consumer, commercial and corporate banking.

“As I reflect on my career, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunities and relationships that shaped my journey,” Arizumi said. “It has been a privilege to work alongside so many outstanding colleagues and to contribute to an institution with such a proud history. I leave with great confidence in First Hawaiian Bank’s continued success.”

Executive Vice President Michael Tottori will assume responsibility for the wealth management group and join the senior management committee. Tottori began his career with First Hawaiian Bank in 1989 and returned in 2005 after gaining private client investment experience on the mainland. Since then, he has advanced through a series of leadership roles within wealth advisory, guiding the division’s strategic growth, including overseeing the transition of FHB’s broker-dealer platform to Raymond James Financial. He was promoted to division manager in 2020 and to executive vice president in 2024.

“Mike brings extensive experience and a proven record of growth to this role,” Harrison added. “He understands the importance of strong client relationships and is committed to the communities we serve. His leadership and alignment with our culture position him well to lead First Hawaiian Bank’s Wealth Management Group.”
