American Hawaiian Steamship Co.
Capitalization 500,000, Shares Par Value $10
A'O FUNDED DEBT
American Hawaiian Steamship Company, which has been successfully engaged for
over twenty years in a general freight-carrying trade throughout the world, now owns
and operates a fleet aggregating 174,330 deadweight tons of the highest class of vessels
consisting of the steamers
Alaskan
American
Arizoiuan
Dakotan
Kloridan "
Hawaiian Pan a man

Iowan

The Company has recently acquired over 95 of the capital stock of the Coastwise
Transportation Company which owns and operates the following fleet of colliers which
has an average age of five years and an aggregate tonnage of 70,500 deadweight tons:
Coastwise
Transportation
Suffolk
Middlesex
Norfolk-Fairmont
Clarksburg
Hampden
Franklin
Bristol
The American Hawaiian fleet is time chartered for over seven months, and the Coast-
wise fleet is chartered for three yeara so that future earnings are well assured. The man
agement of the Company will remain in the hands of those who have successfully han
dled it in the pa3t.
As of March 3, 1920, the financial statement of the Company shows net current
assets of $9,378,o00. After allowing for the net current assets, the 500,000 shares of
capital stock outstanding at $75 represent a value for the Company's fleet including
its interest in the Coastwise fleet of $117 per ton.
Earnings have been maintained over a long period at a rate which has permitted
financing new vessels from earnings and the payment of liberal dhidends. Since 1903
dhidends have been paid on American Hawaiian Stock equivalent to $81.75 per share.
Net earnings before taxes of the Coastwise Transportation Company for the year ended
February 28th, 1920 were equivalent to over $7 per share on American Hawaiian
stock, based on the proportionate ownership of Coastwise Transportation Co. shares.
The present rate of dividend on American Hawaiian stock is $8 per share. Net earnings
after taxes for 1920 are estimated by the management at between $17 and $21 per share.
We offer the unsold balance of th: above shnrcv of th Vmerican Hawaiian Steamship Company mbject
to prio" sale and change In price at
$75 per share yielding: over 10y2o
