Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Participants and Administrator of the
American Savings Bank 401(k) Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the American Savings Bank 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2013 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

December 31, 2013 and 2012

1.                            Plan Description

The American Savings Bank 401(k) Plan (the “Plan” or “ASB 401(k) Plan”) was established by American Savings Bank, F.S.B. (“ASB” or the “Bank”) effective January 1, 2008.  The Plan is a defined contribution 401(k) plan that provides certain tax-favored retirement benefits to participating employees.  ASB is the only participating employer in the Plan at this time.

Effective January 1, 2013, the ASB 401(k) Plan was amended and restated in its entirety to incorporate all amendments required by the 2011 Cumulative List of Changes in Plan Qualification Requirements, including amendments to comply with the Pension Protection Act of 2006, the Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Tax Act of 2008, and the Worker, Retiree, and Employer Recovery Act of 2008.  As part of the restatement, the Bank  was designated as the Plan “Administrator,” as defined in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).

In December 2013, the Bank made one amendment to the Plan.  The amendment added a Roth 401(k) contribution feature and a Roth In-Plan conversion feature effective January 1, 2014.

The following description of the Plan provides only general information.  Participants should refer to the Plan document for its detailed provisions, which are also summarized in the most recent prospectus for the Plan and in the summary plan description.

a.                   Plan Administration

ASB is the Administrator of the Plan.  The board of directors of Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (“HEI”), which is the parent corporation of the controlled group of which ASB is a part, has established the Hawaiian Electric industries, Inc. Pension Investment Committee (“PIC”) to oversee the administration of the Plan and the investment options offered under the Plan.  The PIC has appointed an Administrative Committee to oversee the day-to-day administration of the Plan, which includes the discretionary authority to interpret the Plan’s provisions.  The PIC has also appointed an Investment Committee to oversee the day-to-day financial affairs of the Plan.  The Administrative and Investment Committees are comprised of employees of HEI and its subsidiaries and are chaired by a member of the PIC.

ASB and the Plan pay the Plan’s administrative fees.  Prior to the third quarter of 2012, HEI paid the Dividend Pass-Through fee for ASB until the fee was waived as part of the new trust agreement. The Plan’s trustee and certain of the mutual funds offered under the Plan also provide revenue credits to the Plan, which are used to pay for Plan administration including recordkeeping.  Fees charged directly to the Plan that are not paid by revenue credits or other asset-based fees may be allocated to participant accounts.  Participants may also be assessed interest and fees related to participants’ notes receivable and withdrawals.

b.                   Salary Deferral Contributions

For purposes of salary deferral (401(k)) contributions, all common law employees of ASB (other than leased employees) are eligible to participate in the Plan upon employment.  Participation in the 401(k) portion of the Plan is voluntary for eligible employees.

Employees may make salary deferral contributions of up to 100% of available eligible compensation (i.e., compensation that is available after payroll taxes and other applicable withholdings) subject to a federal tax limit of $17,500 in 2013 and $17,000 in 2012.  Participants who are age 50 or older, or who will reach age 50 during the year, may elect to

401(k) Plan

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

make catch-up contributions, as defined in the Plan, subject to a federal tax limit of $5,500 in 2013 and 2012.

Effective January 1, 2014, when a participant makes a salary deferral election, the participant may choose between regular, pre-tax 401(k) contributions and after-tax, Roth contributions.

For purposes of employee salary deferral contributions to the Plan, eligible compensation is defined as Box 1, W-2 earnings during the Plan year modified to (a) exclude fringe benefits, employer nonelective contributions to a cafeteria plan, reimbursements, moving and other expense allowances, special executive compensation, signing bonuses, retention bonuses, service awards, and similar nonperformance based awards, and (b) include nontaxable elective contributions made by ASB to the Plan, a cafeteria plan, or a pre-tax transportation spending plan.  Special executive compensation is noncash compensation and nonqualified deferred compensation available only to a select group of management employees.  Federal tax law limits the amount of annual compensation that may be taken into account in determining contributions to the Plan.  The maximum limit was $255,000 in 2013 and $250,000 in 2012.

c.                    Matching Contributions

After one year of service, ASB matches employee salary deferral contributions at the rate of 100% of the first 4% of eligible compensation deferred.  These matching contributions are known as “AmeriMatch” contributions.  For AmeriMatch contributions, compensation is defined in the same way it is defined for salary deferral contributions as described in Note 1(b) above; however, compensation earned prior to an employee becoming eligible for AmeriMatch is not included.

For 2013 and 2012, ASB made AmeriMatch contributions to the Plan of $1,859,155 and $1,863,465, respectively.

d.                   Employer Discretionary Contributions

The Plan also includes an annual discretionary profit sharing feature (known as “AmeriShare”).  All employees employed on the last day of any Plan year are eligible to share in any AmeriShare allocation for that year.  Exceptions to the “last-day requirement” are made for those who die, become disabled, or retire during the year.  Retirement is defined as termination of employment either after (i) attaining age 65 or (ii) attaining age 55 and completing 10 years of service with ASB, HEI or any HEI subsidiary.  On February 18, 2014, ASB approved an AmeriShare contribution equal to 3.717% of 2013 eligible compensation for the 2013 Plan year.  This AmeriShare contribution was deposited into eligible participant accounts on February 25, 2014.  On February 8, 2013, ASB approved an AmeriShare contribution equal to 3.267% of 2012 eligible compensation for the 2012 Plan year.  This AmeriShare contribution was deposited into eligible participant accounts on February 26, 2013.

For purposes of calculating any AmeriShare contribution, eligible compensation includes an eligible employee’s annual base salary or pay plus commissions paid during the Plan year, but excludes any amounts deferred to the American Savings Bank Select Deferred Compensation Plan or any other nonqualified deferred compensation plan that are not includible in the gross income of the employee for the taxable year.

December 31, 2013 and 2012

e.                    Participant Accounts

Each participant has an individual account in the Plan, which may include one or more subaccounts.  Each participant is always 100% vested in his or her total account, including all subaccounts.  A participant’s benefits equal the balance in the participant’s account at the time of distribution.  Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s elective contributions, AmeriMatch and AmeriShare contributions, and allocations of Plan earnings and gains or losses (whether realized or unrealized), and charged with an allocation of any administrative expenses paid directly by the Plan or charged directly to the participant’s account.  Individual expenses, such as fees associated with loans and distributions, are charged directly to a participant’s individual account.  Other administrative expenses, such as recordkeeping expenses, are paid through investment level expenses that are borne by participants in proportion to their investments in the designated investment alternatives that generate revenue credits for the Plan.  Participant accounts are valued at the end of each day that the New York Stock Exchange is open.

The Plan is intended to be an ERISA Section 404(c) plan, under which the fiduciaries of the Plan are relieved of liability for any losses that are the direct and necessary result of a participant’s or beneficiary’s exercise of control over the investments in his or her individual account.  Participants are responsible for directing the investment of all amounts in their accounts using investment options offered under the Plan and for the performance of such investments.  The Plan currently offers various mutual funds and target-date funds, and a unitized common stock fund that consists of shares of HEI common stock and short-term liquid investments.  Participants may change their investment elections at any time.  If a participant does not choose an investment option for any portion of the participant’s account, such amounts are automatically invested in the age-appropriate Fidelity Freedom Index Fund -  Class W specific to the participant’s normal retirement age or such other investment as the PIC may direct, pending other direction by the participant.

The portion of the Plan comprising the HEI Common Stock Fund is designated as an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”).  Amounts contributed to the Plan for investment in the HEI Common Stock Fund or transferred to the HEI Common Stock Fund from other investment alternatives become part of the ESOP component of the Plan.

There are two limitations on the amount a participant may invest in the HEI Common Stock Fund.  First a participant may not direct more than 20% of any contribution to the HEI Common Stock Fund.  Second, participants and beneficiaries are prohibited from making transfers or exchanges from other investment alternatives into the HEI Common Stock Fund if the transfer or exchange would cause the participant’s or beneficiary’s investment in the HEI Common Stock Fund to exceed 20% of the participant’s or beneficiary’s total account balance.

f.                     Distributions

Distributions from participants’ accounts are generally made upon retirement, death, permanent disability, or other termination of employment.  Distributions may be made in a single lump sum, or a retired or terminated participant may elect to receive partial distributions (once per year) until the participant’s account has been distributed in full or the participant elects to receive a single-sum distribution of the remaining balance.  Retired participants may also elect to receive required minimum distributions from the Plan.

Account balances of $5,000 or less are automatically distributed upon termination of employment.  Any automatic distribution of more than $1,000 (but not more than $5,000) is

6

401(k) Plan

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

made in the form of a direct rollover to an Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”) designated by the Administrative Committee, unless the participant requests a cash distribution or a direct rollover to an IRA or tax-qualified retirement plan of the participant’s choosing.

Distributions from the HEI Common Stock Fund are in the form of HEI common stock, with any fractional shares paid in cash or, if the participant so elects, cash.

The participant’s account will be reduced by any unpaid note balance at the time of distribution.  However, unless rolled over, the balance of the unpaid note will be taxable to the participant.

g.                   Death Benefits

Upon the death of a participant, the full value in the participant’s account is payable as a death benefit to the participant’s designated beneficiary.

h.                   Withdrawals While Employed

Prior to termination of employment, a participant may request a withdrawal from his or her account in the event of hardship.  A participant who receives a hardship withdrawal is prohibited from making additional salary deferral contributions (pre-tax or Roth) to the Plan for six months following the hardship withdrawal.

Upon request, a participant may withdraw voluntary after-tax contributions previously allowed under the Plan.  These contributions are no longer permitted under the Plan.

Participants who elect to invest portions of their account balances in the HEI Common Stock Fund (the ESOP component of the Plan) may elect to receive cash distributions of periodic dividends attributable to such investments or may elect to have such dividends reinvested.

A participant who is age 59½ or older may elect to receive an in-service distribution from his or her vested account balance once per year.

i.                      Notes Receivable From Participants

Participants may borrow from their accounts.  All loans must be on commercially reasonable terms and be evidenced by a note.  The minimum note amount is $1,000, and the maximum amount of all notes under the Plan is limited to the lesser of $50,000, reduced by the highest outstanding note balance during the prior 12 months, or 50% of the participant’s account balance.  The term of a note generally may not exceed 5 years, except that a note used to purchase a principal residence may have a term of up to 15 years.  The interest rate on a note is set at the time a participant applies for the note.  The interest rate for 2013 was two percentage points above the Federal Reserve prime rate of interest as of the last working day of the month preceding the month the note was made.  All outstanding notes are collateralized by 50% of the participant’s account balance, determined when a note is approved.  No allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.  If a participant ceases to make loan repayments and the Plan Administrator deems the participant loan to be in default, the default will be a deemed distribution.  However, the participant’s account will not be reduced until a distributable event occurs under the terms of the Plan.  Notes outstanding at December 31, 2013 bear interest at various rates ranging from 3.50% to 9.25%.  Principal and interest payments are made ratably through payroll deductions.  Participants are allowed up to two notes outstanding at any one time from the Plan.

j.                      Vesting

Participants are 100% vested in their account balances at all times.

2.                            Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a.                   Basis of Accounting

The Plan prepares its financial statements under the accrual method of accounting.

b.                   Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires the Plan Administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

c.                    Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

The Plan’s investments are reported at fair value.  Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The PIC is responsible for the Plan’s valuation principles and utilizes information provided by the Plan’s investment advisers and custodian.  See Note 3 for a discussion of fair value measurements.  Net appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of investments includes realized and unrealized changes in the values of investments bought, sold, and held during the year.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.  Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

d.                   Notes Receivable From Participants

Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest.  Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.  Related fees are recorded as administrative expenses and are expensed when they are incurred.  No allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.  If a participant ceases to make loan repayments and the plan administrator deems the participant loan to be in default, the participant loan balance is treated as a deemed distribution and is recorded in distributions to participants.

e.                    Payment of Benefits

The Plan records benefits when they are paid.

f.                     Expenses

Certain expenses of maintaining the Plan are paid directly by the Bank and are excluded from these financial statements. Fees related to the administration of notes receivable from participants are charged directly to the participant’s account and are included in administrative expenses. Investment related expenses are included in net appreciation in fair value of investments.

g.                   Risks and Uncertainties

The Plan may invest in various types of investment securities.  Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risks.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and  such changes

December 31, 2013 and 2012

could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.

Approximately 11% and 13% of the Plan’s net assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, consisted of HEI common stock.

h.                   Recent Accounting Standards

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”),” which is intended to improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRS.  The amendments are of two types: (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The Plan adopted this update in 2012 and there was no impact on the Plan’s financial statements.

i.                      Subsequent Events

The Plan Administrator has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.

3.                            Fair Value Measurements

a.                   Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value:

Mutual Funds

Valued at the daily closing price as reported by the fund.  Mutual funds held by the Plan are open-end mutual funds that are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These funds are required to publish their daily net asset value (“NAV”) and to transact at that price.  The mutual funds held by the Plan are deemed to be actively traded.

Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. Common Stock Fund

Invests primarily in shares of HEI common stock with a fractional amount invested in interest-bearing cash equivalents.  The HEI Common Stock Fund is valued at NAV.  The underlying HEI common stock held by the HEI Common Stock Fund is valued at the closing price reported on the last business day of the Plan year reported on the active market on which the common stock is traded.  The underlying cash equivalents include investments in money market mutual funds valued at the NAV.  The HEI Common Stock Fund trades daily without any prior redemption notice period.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values, which may be materially affected by market conditions and other circumstances.  Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

b.                   Fair Value Hierarchy

Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  The following are the three levels of the fair value hierarchy under this standard:

Level 1        Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Plan has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2        Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.  If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3        Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

4.                            Interest in Master Trust

All of the assets of the ASB Plan are held together with all of the assets of the Hawaiian Electric Industries Retirement Savings Plan in a master trust (the “Master Trust”) pursuant to a Master Trust Agreement between HEI and ASB and Fidelity Management Trust Company (the “Trustee”) that was amended and restated in its entirety as of September 4, 2012.  Each participating retirement plan has an undivided interest in the Master Trust.

The value of the Plan’s interest in the Master Trust is based on the beginning of the year value of the Plan’s interest in the Master Trust plus actual contributions, transfers and allocated investment income or loss less actual distributions and allocated administrative expenses.  At both December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Plan’s interest in the assets of the Master Trust was approximately 19%.  Investment income and administrative expenses relating to the Master Trust are allocated to the individual plans based upon the daily valuation of the balances invested by each plan.

The following table presents the assets of the Master Trust and the Plan’s interest in the Master Trust:

5.                            Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, ASB has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time or to terminate the Plan.

6.                            Federal Income Taxes

The Plan and Master Trust are qualified under the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and are exempt from federal income taxes under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code.  On January 31, 2013, the ASB Plan document, as restated effective January 1, 2013, was submitted to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a determination that the language of the Plan continues to meet the federal tax law requirements applicable to it.  On October 22, 2013, the IRS issued a favorable determination letter covering the Plan restatement.  This latest determination letter does not cover amendments made to the Plan since January 1, 2013.  ASB and its outside ERISA/tax counsel believe that the amendments made since January 1, 2013 meet applicable federal tax law requirements.

ASB is not aware of any Code or ERISA violations that would jeopardize the Plan’s tax exempt status and, as of December 31, 2013, has concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements.  The Plan is periodically audited by the IRS and the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”); however, there are currently no audits in progress.  ASB believes that the Plan is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2010.

7.                            Related—Party Transactions

Certain Plan investments represent shares of mutual funds managed by Fidelity Management and Research Company (“FMR”).  Fidelity Management Trust Company (“FMTC”), an affiliate of FMR, is the Trustee of the Plan, and therefore, the transactions with FMR qualify as party-in-interest transactions for which a prohibited transaction exemption exists.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

Effective January 1, 2012, a revenue credit program for the Plan was implemented by FMTC.  Certain legal and consulting fees incurred by the Plan are included in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits because they are paid through the revenue credit program (“RCP”).  These RCP payments amounted to approximately $9,000 and $11,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  ASB made direct payments for recordkeeping services provided by Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc., an affiliate of both FMR and FMTC, which were not covered by the RCP.  These direct payments amounted to approximately $11,000 and $16,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Plan participants may also elect to invest in the HEI Common Stock Fund, which consists of shares of HEI common stock and short-term liquid investments.  Since ASB is a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of HEI, investments in the HEI Common Stock Fund are party-in-interest transactions under the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA for which a statutory exemption exists.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Master Trust made purchases of 39,244 shares of HEI common stock for a total purchase price of $0.9 million and sales of 184,486 shares of HEI common stock for total sales proceeds of $4.1 million.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Master Trust made purchases of 46,768 shares of HEI common stock for a total purchase price of $1.0 million and sales of 74,456 shares of HEI common stock for total sales proceeds of $1.6 million.
