What Happened?

Shares of regional banking institution Bank of Hawaii (NYSE: BOH) fell 4.5% in the morning session after the company reported mixed second-quarter financial results where a significant revenue miss overshadowed an earnings per share beat. The bank posted diluted earnings per share of $1.06, which came in slightly ahead of analyst expectations. However, investors appeared to focus on the company's top-line performance. Bank of Hawaii's net interest income for the quarter was $129.7 million, which fell considerably short of estimates. The market's reaction suggested that concerns over the revenue shortfall overshadowed the otherwise positive aspects of the report.
