The financial results for each of the last eight quarters are summarized above.
In general, CWB’s performance reflects a relatively consistent trend, although
the second quarter contains three fewer revenue-earning days in non-leap years,
and two fewer days in leap years such as 2016. Common shareholders’ net income
in the second quarter of 2016 reflects the impact of the credit performance of
oil and gas production loans. Results of Discontinued and Combined Operations
for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 include divestiture gains.
For additional details on variations between the prior quarters, refer to the
summary of quarterly results section of CWB’s MD&A for the year ended October
31, 2016 and the individual quarterly reports to shareholders which are
available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on CWB’s website at www.cwb.com.
Taxable Equivalent Basis (teb)
Most banks analyze revenue on a taxable equivalent basis to permit uniform
measurement and comparison of net interest income. Net interest income (as
presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income) includes tax-exempt income
on certain securities. Since this income is not taxable, the rate of interest
or dividends received is significantly lower than would apply to a loan or
security of the same amount. The adjustment to taxable equivalent basis
increases interest income and the provision for income taxes to what they would
have been had the tax-exempt securities been taxed at the statutory rate. The
taxable equivalent basis does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by
IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by
other financial institutions. Total revenues, net interest income and income
taxes are discussed on a taxable equivalent basis throughout this quarterly
report to shareholders.
Non-IFRS Measures
CWB uses a number of financial measures to assess its performance. These
measures provide readers with an enhanced understanding of how management views
the results. Non-IFRS measures may also provide readers the ability to analyze
trends and provide comparisons with our competitors. Taxable equivalent basis,
adjusted cash earnings per common share, return on common shareholders’ equity,
adjusted return on common shareholders’ equity, return on assets, efficiency
ratio, net interest margin, common equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital
adequacy ratios, and average balances do not have standardized meanings
prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures
presented by other financial institutions. The non-IFRS measures used in this
MD&A are calculated as follows:
/T/
— taxable equivalent basis – described above;
— pre-tax, pre-provision income – total revenue (teb) less non-interest
expenses, excluding the pre-tax amortization of acquisition-related
intangible assets (see calculation below);
— adjusted cash earnings per common share – diluted earnings per common
share excluding the acquisition-related amortization of intangible
assets and contingent consideration fair value changes, net of tax (see
calculation below). Excluded items are not considered to be indicative
of ongoing business performance;
— return on common shareholders’ equity – annualized common shareholders’
net income divided by average common shareholders’ equity;
— adjusted return on common shareholders’ equity – annualized common
shareholders’ net income excluding the acquisition-related amortization
of intangible assets and contingent consideration fair value changes,
net of tax (see calculation below), divided by average common
shareholders’ equity;
— return on assets – annualized common shareholders’ net income divided by
average total assets;
— efficiency ratio – non-interest expenses, excluding the pre-tax
amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, divided by total
revenues, (see calculation below);
— net interest margin – net interest income divided by average total
assets;
— operating leverage – total revenue (teb) growth less growth of non-
interest expenses, excluding the pre-tax amortization of acquisition-
related intangible assets;
— common share dividend payout ratio – common share dividends declared
during the past twelve months divided by common shareholders’ net income
earned over the same period;
— Basel III common equity Tier 1, Tier 1, Total capital, and leverage
ratios – in accordance with guidelines issued by OSFI; and
— average balances – average daily balances.
