Hawaiian Electric Industries lifted its top and bottom lines in the first quarter, and tapped Chief Executive Scott Seu to lead its subsidiary, Hawaiian Electric.

Seu, who has been president and chief executive officer of the holding company HEI since 2022, will become CEO of both companies, effective June 1. Shelee Kimura, who has been Hawaiian Electric president and CEO since 2022, will be president of both companies under a new, unified leadership structure.

HEI and its subsidiaries on Friday posted a profit of $30.5 million, or 18 cents a share, compared with a profit of $26.7 million, 15 cents a share, a year earlier.

Revenue rose to $744 million, from $738.4 million in the year-ago quarter.

The company is expecting higher maintenance and operational costs for the full year, Seu said.
