NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed
financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments
necessary to present a fair statement of financial position and
results of operations for the interim periods ended March 31,
1997 and 1996.

2. The Company's reports for interim periods utilize numerous
estimates of production, general and administrative expenses, and
other costs for the full year. Consequently, amounts in the
interim reports are not necessarily indicative of results for the
full year.

3. The effective tax rate for 1997 and 1996 differs from the
statutory federal rate of 34% primarily because of the state tax
provision and refundable state tax credits.

4. Accounts and notes receivable were net of allowance for
doubtful accounts of $691,000 and $698,000 at March 31, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, respectively.

5. Inventories as of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were
as follows (in thousands):

03/31/97 12/31/96
Pineapple products
Finished goods $ 8,201 $ 7,306
Work in progress 1,426 1,645
Raw materials 680 789
Real estate held for sale 339 339
Merchandise, materials and supplies 6,796 6,405

Total Inventories $17,442 $16,484

6. Average common shares outstanding for the interim periods
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were 1,797,125.

7. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform with the presentation for the current period.

8. In April 1997, YCP, the owners of the Kapalua Bay Hotel,
exercised their option to purchase a 50% interest in the 12-acre
parcel adjacent to the hotel for $4.5 million, subject to certain
agreements and understandings, including finalization of a joint
venture agreement.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated

Consolidated net income for the first quarter of 1997 was
$104,000 compared to $620,000 for the first quarter of 1996.
Revenues for the first quarter of 1997 of $28.9 million were
lower by 3% compared to last year's first quarter. Lower net
income and revenues in the first quarter of 1997 was attributable
to a land sale which contributed approximately $320,000 to net
income in 1996, and to lower earnings from the Company's
Pineapple and Resort operations.

Interest expense for the first quarter of 1997 was 28% lower than
the first quarter of 1996. The reduction in interest expense was
the result of lower average borrowings in the first quarter of
1997. The Company's debt was reduced in the fourth quarter of
1996 as a result of cash flows from operating activities, in
particular Pineapple operations. Average interest rates on the
Company's borrowings were about the same in the first quarters of
1997 and 1996.

General and Administrative expenses increased by 6% for the first
quarter of 1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996. Higher
expenses in 1997 was due primarily to increased staffing and wage
adjustments and higher costs for consultants.

Pineapple

Revenue from Pineapple operations was $18.4 million for the first
quarter of 1997 compared to $19 million for the first quarter of
1996. The operating profit from this segment was $340,000 for
the first quarter of 1997 compared to $644,000 for last year's
first quarter. Higher average prices in 1997 produced revenue
increases of approximately $300,000. However a change in product
mix sold (fruit, juice, concentrate) and reduced fresh fruit
sales combined to result in lower revenue and operating profits.

Resort

The Company's Resort segment contributed revenue of $9.39 million
in the first quarter of 1997 compared to $9.42 million for last
year's first quarter. Operating profits for the first quarter of
1997 was $1.7 million compared to $2 million for the first
quarter of 1996.

Revenue from the Kapalua Villa program increased in 1997 as a
result of the higher number of units in the program since
September of 1996. The Resort membership program contributed
increased revenue in 1997 and the overall Resort occupancy
increased in 1997. These increases did not offset lower
merchandise sales, fewer paid golf rounds and a planned reduction
in ground lease rent to accommodate the restoration of The
Kapalua Bay Hotel. The hotel closed on April 1, 1997 and is
scheduled to reopen in the fall.

Increased expenses related to the Kapalua Villa program and
higher marketing costs also contributed to the reduction in
Resort operating profits.


Commercial & Property

Revenue from the Commercial & Property segment was $1.1 million
for the first quarter of 1997 compared to $1.4 million for the
first quarter of 1996. These operations produced an operating
loss of $90,000 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to an
operating profit of $236,000 in the first quarter of 1996. The
lower results in 1997 was largely due to a land sale in 1996
which contributed approximately $500,000 to revenues and
operating profits in 1996. The Company's equity in losses of
Kaahumanu Center Associates decreased by 17% in the first quarter
of 1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 1997 the Company's total debt including capital
leases was $31.8 million compared to $30.2 million at December
31, 1996. The increase in debt and positive cash flows from
operating activities was principally used to finance capital
expenditures and the Company's share of cash calls by Kaahumanu
Center Associates. Unused short- and long-term lines of credit
were $11.9 million at the end of the first quarter of 1997.

In April of 1997 the Company entered into a $5 million loan
agreement with Pacific Coast Farm Credit Services. Advances under
this loan are to be used to purchase assets for the Company's
pineapple operations. The loan includes a revolving period of
approximately two years and a final maturity date of January 1,
2002. At the Company's option, interest on advances are to be
based on the prime rate, a Western Farm Credit Bank rate, or a
Eurodollar rate.

Consolidated capital expenditures are expected to be
approximately $9.8 million in 1997 of which approximately 54% are
for the replacement of existing equipment. The Company expects
to finance approximately $2.6 million of these expenditures with
capital leases and the remainder will be financed with operating
cash flows.


PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

DBCP.

In 1985, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency banned the use
to dibromochlorapropane (DBCP). Prior to 1985, the Company used
DBCP to retard nematode growth on its pineapple plantations. The
Company's use of DBCP was in accordance with the manufacturer's
directions and appropriate Federal rules. In recent years DBCP
has been detected in a County drinking water well on Maui. In
May of 1996, the County of Maui filed a lawsuit against certain
manufacturers and distributors of DBCP in connection with
drinking water contamination. On March 31, 1997, one of the DBCP
manufacturers, Occidental Chemical Corporation (Occidental),
tendered its defense of Maui County's suit to the Company based
on a 1978 indemnity agreement. The Company has tendered
Occidental's claim to its insurers and reserved all of its
defenses to Occidental's claims under the indemnity agreement.
The primary insurer has accepted the Company's tender on terms
that have yet to be determined. At this time, it is not possible
to determine the extent, if any, of potential liability to the
Company.


Item 5. Other Information

Cannery Waste Water Disposal System.

In May of 1997, the Company expects to complete a system for
disposal of cooling water and waste water from its cannery
operation which will transmit the water to an agricultural area
in central Maui and recycle the water for irrigation purposes.
This new system will allow the Company to discontinue its
previous method of disposing of the water using underground
injection wells. Construction of the new system began in 1994,
and its total cost will be approximately $2.6 million. The new
system will comply with current Federal and State regulations;
the previous system did not. The Company and the Department of
Health, State of Hawaii, are negotiating a settlement of
penalties that the Department of Health might impose against the
Company for (i) the discharge of condenser and can cooling water
from the Company's Kahului Cannery into Kahului harbor, and (ii)
the disposal of effluent from the Company's Kahului Cannery into
an injection well. The Company is in the process of collecting
information requested by the State of Hawaii which will be used
to evaluate the amount of a penalty for non-compliance, if any.
