TORONTO, Dec. 5, 2019 /CNW/ - TD Bank Group ("TD" or the "Bank") today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2019. Fourth quarter reported earnings were $2.9 billion, down 4% on a reported and down 3% on an adjusted basis, compared with the same quarter last year. Results include restructuring charges of $154 million ($114 million after tax or 6 cents per share) in the current quarter.

"In 2019, we demonstrated the strength and resilience of our franchise as we continued to acquire and serve our customers while increasing loan and deposit volumes," said Bharat Masrani, Group President and Chief Executive Officer, TD Bank Group. "Throughout the year, we generated earnings growth amidst a challenging macroeconomic environment while we made strategic investments to strengthen our business, deliver for our customers, and modernize and simplify our operations."

Canadian Retail
Canadian Retail reported net income was $1,745 million and adjusted net income was $1,773 million, an increase of $4 million on a reported basis and $32 million on an adjusted basis, compared with the same quarter last year. Revenue growth of 5% reflected increased loan and deposit volumes and higher revenue in the Wealth and Insurance businesses, which combined with good expense controls led to positive operating leverage this quarter. Canadian Retail continues to invest in front-line advisors and customer service specialists, to help customers feel confident about their financial future. In addition, the segment made further investments in core infrastructure and new digital capabilities such as its new TD Wheels app and new mobile-enabled credit card controls.

U.S. Retail
U.S. Retail reported and adjusted net income was $1,191 million (US$900 million), an increase of 7% (5% in U.S. dollars) on a reported basis and 5% (3% in U.S. dollars) on an adjusted basis, compared with the same quarter last year. TD Ameritrade contributed $291 million (US$219 million) in reported and adjusted earnings to the segment, an increase of 28% (25% in U.S. dollars) on a reported basis and 15% (13% in U.S. dollars) on an adjusted basis, compared to the same quarter last year.

The U.S. Retail Bank, which excludes the Bank's investment in TD Ameritrade, contributed $900 million (US$681 million), up 2% (flat in U.S. dollars) from the same quarter last year. Higher loan and deposit volumes were offset by lower margins. This quarter, the U.S. Retail Bank ranked "Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Small Business Banking in the South Region" according to the J.D. Power Small Business Banking Satisfaction Study, a testament to the investments made to upgrade the Small Business Banking digital platform and the segment's ongoing dedication to providing legendary customer service and convenience.

Wholesale
Wholesale Banking net income was $160 million, down $126 million compared with the fourth quarter last year. This quarter, the Wholesale Bank had solid performance in trading, advisory, and underwriting activities. Lower revenue was primarily impacted by derivative valuation charges incurred in the fourth quarter, mainly in connection with significant upgrades made to the derivative valuation system and related methodologies. The Wholesale Bank also saw increased provisions for credit losses related to a limited number of exposures, and higher expenses, including restructuring, as it reduces the cost structure of certain areas of the business. This year, TD Securities once again placed first overall in the StarMine Analyst Awards and was tied for First in Overall Canadian Fixed Income by Greenwich.

Capital
TD's Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio on a Basel III fully phased-in basis was 12.1%.

Innovation
"We have made terrific progress extending our digital leadership in 2019, investing in new capabilities across the Bank," added Masrani. "This quarter, we opened our new TD Cyber Fusion Centre, co-locating leading experts from across TD with a focus on strengthening our cyber defences, protecting our customers and safeguarding the Bank. We are also deploying the power of Artificial Intelligence in innovative ways, accelerating the introduction of new digital experiences while leading industry-wide conversations on the development of this groundbreaking technology through our recently released Responsible AI report."

Conclusion
"As we enter 2020, we remain focused on our long-term strategy and are proud of the businesses we continue to build. No matter the operating environment, we are guided by our proven business model, purpose-driven brand, and forward-focused approach, all with the aim to deliver for our customers, colleagues, and shareholders each and every day," added Masrani.

"I want to thank our more than 85,000 colleagues around the globe for living the TD brand, and for their unwavering commitment to delivering legendary experiences for our customers," concluded Masrani.

By their very nature, these forward-looking statements require the Bank to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, general and specific. Especially in light of the uncertainty related to the physical, financial, economic, political, and regulatory environments, such risks and uncertainties – many of which are beyond the Bank's control and the effects of which can be difficult to predict – may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. Risk factors that could cause, individually or in the aggregate, such differences include: credit, market (including equity, commodity, foreign exchange, interest rate, and credit spreads), liquidity, operational (including technology and infrastructure), model, reputational, insurance, strategic, regulatory, legal, environmental, capital adequacy, and other risks. Examples of such risk factors include the general business and economic conditions in the regions in which the Bank operates; geopolitical risk; the ability of the Bank to execute on long-term strategies and shorter-term key strategic priorities, including the successful completion of acquisitions and dispositions, business retention plans, and strategic plans; the ability of the Bank to attract, develop, and retain key executives; disruptions in or attacks (including cyber-attacks) on the Bank's information technology, internet, network access or other voice or data communications systems or services; fraud or other criminal activity to which the Bank is exposed; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to the Bank or its affiliates, including relating to the care and control of information; the impact of new and changes to, or application of, current laws and regulations, including without limitation tax laws, capital guidelines and liquidity regulatory guidance and the bank recapitalization "bail-in" regime; exposure related to significant litigation and regulatory matters; increased competition from incumbents and non-traditional competitors, including Fintech and big technology competitors; changes to the Bank's credit ratings; changes in currency and interest rates (including the possibility of negative interest rates); increased funding costs and market volatility due to market illiquidity and competition for funding; Interbank Offered Rate (IBOR) transition risk; critical accounting estimates and changes to accounting standards, policies, and methods used by the Bank; existing and potential international debt crises; environmental and social risk; and the occurrence of natural and unnatural catastrophic events and claims resulting from such events. The Bank cautions that the preceding list is not exhaustive of all possible risk factors and other factors could also adversely affect the Bank's results. For more detailed information, please refer to the "Risk Factors and Management" section of the 2019 MD&A, as may be updated in subsequently filed quarterly reports to shareholders and news releases (as applicable) related to any events or transactions discussed under the headings "Significant and Subsequent Events, and Pending Transactions" in the relevant MD&A, which applicable releases may be found on www.td.com. All such factors should be considered carefully, as well as other uncertainties and potential events, and the inherent uncertainty of forward-looking statements, when making decisions with respect to the Bank and the Bank cautions readers not to place undue reliance on the Bank's forward-looking statements.

Material economic assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this document are set out in the 2019 MD&A under the headings "Economic Summary and Outlook", for the Canadian Retail, U.S. Retail, and Wholesale Banking segments, "Business Outlook and Focus for 2020", and for the Corporate segment, "Focus for 2020", each as may be updated in subsequently filed quarterly reports to shareholders.

HOW WE PERFORMED

How the Bank Reports
The Bank prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS, the current GAAP, and refers to results prepared in accordance with IFRS as "reported" results. The Bank also utilizes non-GAAP financial measures referred to as "adjusted" results to assess each of its businesses and to measure the Bank's overall performance. To arrive at adjusted results, the Bank removes "items of note", from reported results. The items of note relate to items which management does not believe are indicative of underlying business performance. The Bank believes that adjusted results provide the reader with a better understanding of how management views the Bank's performance. The items of note are disclosed in Table 3. As explained, adjusted results differ from reported results determined in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted results, items of note, and related terms used in this document are not defined terms under IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers.

The Bank's U.S. strategic cards portfolio comprises of agreements with certain U.S. retailers pursuant to which TD is the U.S. issuer of private label and co-branded consumer credit cards to their U.S. customers. Under the terms of the individual agreements, the Bank and the retailers share in the profits generated by the relevant portfolios after credit losses. Under IFRS, TD is required to present the gross amount of revenue and provisions for credit losses related to these portfolios in the Bank's Consolidated Statement of Income. At the segment level, the retailer program partners' share of revenues and credit losses is presented in the Corporate segment, with an offsetting amount (representing the partners' net share) recorded in Non-interest expenses, resulting in no impact to Corporate reported Net income (loss). The Net income (loss) included in the U.S. Retail segment includes only the portion of revenue and credit losses attributable to TD under the agreements.

The following table provides the operating results on a reported basis for the Bank.

("Scottrade"), as explained in footnote 8 – fourth quarter 2018 – $25 million, third quarter 2018 – $18 million, second quarter 2018 – $61 million and first quarter 2018 – $68 million. This item was reported in the U.S. Retail segment.
⁵	Amortization of intangibles relates to intangibles acquired as a result of asset acquisitions and business combinations, including the after tax amounts for amortization of intangibles relating to the Equity in net income of the investment in TD Ameritrade. Although the amortization of software and asset servicing rights are recorded in amortization of intangibles, they are not included for purposes of the items of note.
⁶	On January 10, 2019, the Bank's long-term loyalty program agreement with Air Canada became effective in conjunction with Air Canada completing its acquisition of Aimia Canada Inc., which operates the Aeroplan loyalty business (the "Transaction"). In connection with the Transaction, the Bank recognized an expense of $607 million ($446 million after tax) in the Canadian Retail segment during the first quarter of 2019.
⁷	On November 1, 2018, the Bank acquired Greystone Capital Management Inc., the parent company of Greystone Managed Investments Inc. ("Greystone"). The Bank incurred acquisition-related charges including compensation to employee shareholders issued in common shares in respect of the purchase price, direct transaction costs, and certain other acquisition-related costs. These amounts have been recorded as an adjustment to net income and were reported in the Canadian Retail segment.
⁸	On September 18, 2017, the Bank acquired Scottrade Bank and TD Ameritrade acquired Scottrade, together with the Bank's purchase of TD Ameritrade shares issued in connection with TD Ameritrade's acquisition of Scottrade (the "Scottrade transaction"). Scottrade Bank merged with TD Bank, N.A. The Bank and TD Ameritrade incurred acquisition related charges including employee severance, contract termination fees, direct transaction costs, and other one-time charges. These amounts have been recorded as an adjustment to net income and include charges associated with the Bank's acquisition of Scottrade Bank and the after tax amounts for the Bank's share of charges associated with TD Ameritrade's acquisition of Scottrade. These amounts are reported in the U.S. Retail segment.
⁹	The reduction of the U.S. federal corporate tax rate enacted by the U.S. Tax Act resulted in a net charge to earnings during 2018 of $392 million, comprising a net $48 million pre-tax charge related to the write-down of certain tax credit-related investments, partially offset by the favourable impact of the Bank's share of TD Ameritrade's remeasurement of its deferred income tax balances, and a net $344 million income tax expense resulting from the remeasurement of the Bank's deferred tax assets and liabilities to the lower base rate of 21% and other related tax adjustments. The earnings impact was reported in the Corporate segment.
¹⁰	The amounts reported for the three months ended January 31, 2018, and the twelve months ended October 31, 2018, exclude $31 million relating to the one-time adjustment of associated deferred tax liability balances as a result of the U.S. Tax Act. The impact of this adjustment is included in the Impact from U.S. tax reform item of note.

RETURN ON COMMON EQUITY
The Bank's methodology for allocating capital to its business segments is aligned with the common equity capital requirements under Basel III. For fiscal 2019, the capital allocated to the business segments is based on 10% CET1 Capital. Capital allocated to the business segments was based on 9% for fiscal 2018.

Adjusted return on common equity (ROE) is adjusted net income available to common shareholders as a percentage of average common equity.

Adjusted ROE is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not a defined term under IFRS. Readers are cautioned that earnings and other measures adjusted to a basis other than IFRS do not have standardized meanings under IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers.

RETURN ON TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY
Tangible common equity (TCE) is calculated as common shareholders' equity less goodwill, imputed goodwill and intangibles on an investment in TD Ameritrade and other acquired intangible assets, net of related deferred tax liabilities. Return on tangible common equity (ROTCE) is calculated as reported net income available to common shareholders after adjusting for the after tax amortization of acquired intangibles, which are treated as an item of note, as a percentage of average TCE. Adjusted ROTCE is calculated using reported net income available to common shareholders, adjusted for items of note, as a percentage of average TCE. Adjusted ROTCE provides a useful measure of the performance of the Bank's income producing assets, independent of whether or not they were acquired or developed internally. TCE, ROTCE, and adjusted ROTCE are each non-GAAP financial measures and are not defined terms under IFRS. Readers are cautioned that earnings and other measures adjusted to a basis other than IFRS do not have standardized meanings under IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers.

SIGNIFICANT AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS, AND PENDING TRANSACTIONS

Bank Supports Acquisition of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation by The Charles Schwab Corporation
On November 25, 2019, the Bank announced its support for the acquisition of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (TD Ameritrade), of which the Bank is a major shareholder, by The Charles Schwab Corporation (Schwab), through a definitive agreement announced by those companies. Under the terms of the transaction, all TD Ameritrade shareholders, including the Bank, would exchange each TD Ameritrade share they own for 1.0837 shares of Schwab. As a result, the Bank will exchange its approximate 43% in TD Ameritrade for an approximate 13.4% stake in Schwab, consisting of up to 9.9% voting common shares and the remainder in non-voting common shares, convertible upon transfer to a third party. TD expects to record a revaluation gain at closing.

The transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including majority approval by the shareholders of each of TD Ameritrade and Schwab, and majority approval of TD Ameritrade's shareholders other than TD and certain other shareholders of TD Ameritrade that have entered into voting agreements. In addition, the transaction is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of calendar 2020, subject to all applicable closing conditions having been satisfied.

If the transaction closes, it is expected to have minimal capital impact on the Bank, and the Bank expects to account for its investment in Schwab using the equity method of accounting. The Bank and Schwab have entered into a new Stockholders' Agreement that will become effective upon closing, under which the Bank will have two seats on Schwab's Board of Directors, subject to the Bank meeting certain conditions. Under the agreement, the Bank will be subject to customary standstill and lockup restrictions. The Bank and Schwab have also entered into a revised and extended long-term Insured Deposit Account (IDA) agreement that will become effective upon closing and extends to 2031. Starting on July 1, 2021, IDA deposits, which were $142 billion (US$108 billion) as at October 31, 2019, can be reduced at Schwab's option by up to US$10 billion a year, with a floor of US$50 billion. The servicing fee under the revised IDA agreement will be set at 15 basis points (bps) upon closing.

Agreement for Air Canada Credit Card Loyalty Program
On January 10, 2019, the Bank's long-term loyalty program agreement (the "Loyalty Agreement") with Air Canada became effective in conjunction with Air Canada completing its acquisition of Aimia Canada Inc., which operates the Aeroplan loyalty business (the "Transaction"). Under the terms of the Loyalty Agreement, the Bank will become the primary credit card issuer for Air Canada's new loyalty program when it launches in 2020 through to 2030. TD Aeroplan cardholders will become members of Air Canada's new loyalty program and their miles will be transitioned when Air Canada's new loyalty program launches in 2020.

In connection with the Transaction, the Bank paid $622 million plus applicable sales tax to Air Canada, of which $547 million ($446 million after sales and income taxes) was recognized in non-interest expenses – other in the Canadian Retail segment, and $75 million was recognized as an intangible asset which will be amortized over the Loyalty Agreement term. In addition, the Bank prepaid $308 million plus applicable sales tax for the future purchase of loyalty points over a ten-year period. The Bank also expects to incur additional pre-tax costs of approximately $100 million over two years to build the functionality required to facilitate the new program. The Transaction reduced the Bank's CET1 ratio by approximately 13 bps.

Acquisition of Greystone
On November 1, 2018, the Bank acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Greystone for consideration of $821 million, of which $479 million was paid in cash and $342 million was paid in the Bank's common shares. The value of 4.7 million common shares issued as consideration was based on the volume weighted-average market price of the Bank's common shares over the 10 trading day period immediately preceding the fifth business day prior to the acquisition date and was recorded based on market price at close. Common shares of $167 million issued to employee shareholders in respect of the purchase price are being held in escrow for two years post-acquisition, subject to their continued employment, and are being recorded as a compensation expense over the two-year escrow period.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the purchase method. As at November 1, 2018, the acquisition contributed $165 million of assets and $46 million of liabilities. The excess of accounting consideration over the fair value of the identifiable net assets has been allocated to customer relationship intangibles of $140 million, deferred tax liability of $37 million, and goodwill of $432 million. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The results of the acquisition have been consolidated from the acquisition date and reported in the Canadian Retail segment.

HOW OUR BUSINESSES PERFORMED

For management reporting purposes, the Bank reports its results under three key business segments: Canadian Retail, which includes the results of the Canadian personal and commercial banking, wealth, and insurance businesses; U.S. Retail, which includes the results of the U.S. personal and business banking operations, wealth management services, and the Bank's investment in TD Ameritrade; and Wholesale Banking. The Bank's other activities are grouped into the Corporate segment.

Results of each business segment reflect revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities generated by the businesses in that segment. Where applicable, the Bank measures and evaluates the performance of each segment based on adjusted results and ROE, and for those segments the Bank indicates that the measure is adjusted. For further details, refer to the "How the Bank Reports" section of this document, the "Business Focus" section in the 2019 MD&A, and Note 29 of the Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended October 31, 2019. For information concerning the Bank's measure of adjusted return on average common equity, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, refer to the "How We Performed" section of this document.

Provision for credit losses (PCL) related to performing (Stage 1 and Stage 2) and impaired (Stage 3) financial assets, loan commitments, and financial guarantees is recorded within the respective segment.

Net interest income within Wholesale Banking is calculated on a taxable equivalent basis (TEB), which means that the value of non-taxable or tax-exempt income, including dividends, is adjusted to its equivalent before-tax value. Using TEB allows the Bank to measure income from all securities and loans consistently and makes for a more meaningful comparison of net interest income with similar institutions. The TEB increase to net interest income and provision for income taxes reflected in Wholesale Banking's results are reversed in the Corporate segment. The TEB adjustment for the quarter was $36 million, compared with $28 million in the fourth quarter last year, and $37 million in the prior quarter.

Capital allocated to the business segment was based on 10% CET1 Capital in fiscal 2019 and 9% in fiscal 2018.

Quarterly comparison – Q4 2019 vs. Q4 2018
Canadian Retail reported net income for the quarter was $1,745 million, an increase of $4 million, compared with the fourth quarter last year. The increase in earnings reflects revenue growth, partially offset by higher PCL, non-interest expenses including charges associated with the acquisition of Greystone, and insurance claims. On an adjusted basis, net income for the quarter was $1,773 million, an increase of $32 million, or 2%. The reported and adjusted annualized ROE for the quarter was 37.9% and 38.5%, respectively, compared with 45.1% in the fourth quarter last year.

Canadian Retail revenue is derived from Canadian personal and commercial banking, wealth, and insurance businesses. Revenue for the quarter was $6,133 million, an increase of $281 million, or 5%, compared with the fourth quarter last year.

Net interest income increased $151 million, or 5%, reflecting volume growth. Average loan volumes increased $19 billion, or 5%, reflecting 4% growth in personal loans and 9% growth in business loans. Average deposit volumes increased $16 billion, or 5%, reflecting 6% growth in personal deposits, 3% growth in business deposits, and 4% growth in wealth deposits. Net interest margin was 2.96%, an increase of 2 bps, reflecting higher interest rates, partially offset by competitive pricing in term deposits and loans.

Non-interest income increased $130 million, or 5%, reflecting an increase in insurance revenues, higher fee-based revenue in the wealth business, and the acquisition of Greystone.

Assets under administration (AUA) were $422 billion as at October 31, 2019, an increase of $33 billion, or 8%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, reflecting new asset growth and increases in market value. Assets under management (AUM) were $353 billion as at October 31, 2019, an increase of $64 billion, or 22%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, reflecting the acquisition of Greystone and increases in market value.

PCL for the quarter was $400 million, an increase of $137 million, or 52%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. PCL – impaired was $324 million, an increase of $79 million, or 32%, reflecting low prior period provisions in commercial, higher insolvencies in the other personal lending and credit card portfolios, and volume growth. PCL – performing was $76 million, an increase of $58 million, reflecting credit migration across the consumer lending and commercial portfolios, including the impact of parameter updates, and volume growth. Total PCL as an annualized percentage of credit volume was 0.37%, or an increase of 12 bps.

Insurance claims and related expenses for the quarter were $705 million, an increase of $21 million, or 3%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. The increase reflects higher current year claims related to business growth, partially offset by more favourable prior years' claims development and less severe weather-related events.

Reported non-interest expenses for the quarter were $2,637 million, an increase of $107 million, or 4%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, reflecting higher spend supporting business growth including employee-related costs and charges associated with the acquisition of Greystone, partially offset by lower marketing costs. On an adjusted basis, non-interest expenses were $2,607 million, an increase of $77 million, or 3%.

The reported and adjusted efficiency ratio for the quarter was 43.0% and 42.5%, respectively, compared with 43.2% in the fourth quarter last year.

Quarterly comparison – Q4 2019 vs. Q3 2019
Canadian Retail reported net income for the quarter decreased $145 million, or 8%, compared with the prior quarter. The decrease in earnings reflects higher non-interest expenses and PCL. On an adjusted basis, net income decreased $143 million, or 7%. The reported and adjusted annualized ROE for the quarter was 37.9% and 38.5%, respectively, compared with 41.7% and 42.2%, respectively, in the prior quarter.

Revenue decreased $13 million compared with the prior quarter. Net interest income increased $51 million, or 2%, reflecting volume growth. Average loan volumes increased $7 billion, or 2%, reflecting 1% growth in personal loans and 2% growth in business loans. Average deposit volumes increased $7 billion, or 2%. Net interest margin was 2.96%, consistent with the prior quarter.

Non-interest income decreased $64 million, or 2%, reflecting a decrease in the fair value of investments supporting claims liabilities as well as a revaluation of points liabilities offset by growth in fee revenues.

AUA increased $3 billion, or 1%, compared with the prior quarter, reflecting new asset growth. AUM increased $3 billion, or 1%, reflecting increases in market value.

PCL for the quarter increased $84 million, or 27%, compared with the prior quarter. PCL – impaired increased by $42 million, or 15%, reflecting credit migration in the auto and commercial portfolios. PCL – performing increased by $42 million, reflecting credit migration in the credit card and commercial portfolios. Total PCL as an annualized percentage of credit volume was 0.37%, an increase of 8 bps.

Insurance claims and related expenses for the quarter decreased $7 million, or 1%, compared with the prior quarter.

Reported non-interest expenses increased $104 million, or 4%, compared with the prior quarter, reflecting higher spend supporting business growth including employee-related expenses, and investment in strategic initiatives. On an adjusted basis, non-interest expenses increased $100 million, or 4%.

The reported and adjusted efficiency ratio for the quarter was 43.0% and 42.5%, respectively, compared with 41.2% and 40.8%, respectively, in the prior quarter.
