Strong fundamentals

While investing in core businesses, CIBC has continued to strengthen key fundamentals. In 2024, CIBC maintained its capital strength and sound risk management practices:

Capital ratios were strong, with a CET1 ratio⁽¹⁾ of 13.3% as noted above, and Tier 1⁽¹⁾ and Total capital ratios⁽¹⁾ of 14.8% and 17.0%, respectively, at October 31, 2024;
Market risk, as measured by average Value-at-Risk, was $11.0 million in 2024 compared with $9.2 million in 2023;
We continued to have solid credit performance, with a loan loss ratio⁽²⁾ of 32 basis points compared with 30 basis points in 2023;
Liquidity Coverage Ratio⁽¹⁾ was 129% for the three months ended October 31, 2024; and
Leverage Ratio⁽¹⁾ was 4.3% at October 31, 2024.

CIBC announced an increase in its quarterly common share dividend from $0.90 per share to $0.97 per share for the quarter ending January 31, 2025.

Credit quality

Provision for credit losses was $419 million for the fourth quarter, down $122 million or 23% from the same quarter last year. Provision for credit losses on performing loans was down $61 million, due to a decrease resulting from model parameter updates and favourable credit migration mainly driven by paydowns, partially offset by an unfavourable change in our economic outlook. Provision for credit losses on impaired loans was down $61 million, primarily due to lower provisions in U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, partially offset by higher provisions across all other strategic business units (SBUs).

Making a difference in our Communities

At CIBC, we believe there should be no limits to ambition. We invest our time and resources to remove barriers to ambitions and demonstrate that when we come together, positive change happens that helps our communities thrive. This quarter:

The 33rd annual Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure took place bringing together 55,000 participants and volunteers across Canada, including more than 13,000 Team CIBC members. Over $15 million was raised, including more than $2.5 million by Team CIBC. The 13th annual CIBC Caribbean Walk for the Cure took place with 30,000 participants in locations throughout the Caribbean.
CIBC has committed $500,000 to the QEII Foundation in Nova Scotia in support of the Cancer Care Patient App, which will transform health care for cancer patients in Nova Scotia.
CIBC announced it is committing $350,000 over four years for the creation of two new student awards to help foster the success of equity-deserving students at Wilfrid Laurier University, encouraging the study of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

Net income for the quarter was $743 million, up $106 million from the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings⁽⁵⁾ were $1,303 million, up $146 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher expenses.
Revenue of $2,670 million was up $212 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher net interest income, mainly from higher deposit margins and volume growth, and higher fees.
Net interest margin on average interest-earning assets was up 18 basis points mainly due to a favourable asset mix and higher deposit margins, partially offset by lower loan margins.
Provision for credit losses of $266 million was down $16 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to a lower provision for credit losses on performing loans, partially offset by a higher provision on impaired loans from higher write-offs.
Non-interest expenses of $1,373 million were up $66 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 mainly due to higher performance-based and employee-related compensation, and higher spending on strategic initiatives.

Net income for the quarter was $516 million, up $26 million from the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings⁽⁴⁾ were $733 million, up $46 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher expenses.
Revenue of $1,523 million was up $157 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, driven mainly by higher fee-based revenue from higher AUA and AUM balances, higher commission revenue from increased client activity, and higher net interest income in wealth management. Revenue in commercial banking was slightly higher compared to the prior year due to volume growth and higher fees, partially offset by lower loan and deposit margins.
Net interest margin on average interest-earning assets was down 74 basis points primarily due to the conversion of bankers' acceptances to CORRA loans resulting from the cessation of Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (CDOR).
Provision for credit losses of $23 million was up $12 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to higher provisions on both performing and impaired loans.
Non-interest expenses of $790 million were up $111 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher performance-based compensation.

Net loss for the quarter was $7 million, compared with a net loss of $75 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax losses⁽²⁾ were down $89 million or 37% from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher expenses.
Revenue was up $224 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to higher treasury revenue resulting from lower funding costs borne by treasury, a lower TEB adjustment, and higher revenue from strategic investments.
The current quarter included a provision for credit losses of $1 million, while the fourth quarter of 2023 included a provision reversal for credit losses of $5 million.
Non-interest expenses of $438 million were up $105 million from the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted non-interest expenses⁽²⁾ of $438 million were up $135 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher corporate costs, and the impact of a pension plan amendment gain in the prior year.

(1)	Prior to the third quarter of 2024, Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services revenue and income taxes were reported on a TEB with an equivalent offset in the revenue and income taxes of Corporate and Other. In the third quarter of 2024, the enactment of the Federal tax measure that denies the dividends received deduction for Canadian banks resulted in a TEB reversal for dividends received on or after January 1, 2024 that were included in the first and second quarters of 2024. Accordingly, the revenue and income taxes for the fourth quarter of 2024 do not include a TEB adjustment (July 31, 2024 includes a reversal of a TEB adjustment of: $123 million; October 31, 2023: includes a TEB adjustment of $62 million).
(2)	This measure is a non-GAAP measure. For additional information, see the "Non-GAAP measures" section.
(3)	Includes full-time equivalent employees for which the expenses are allocated to the business lines within the SBUs. The majority of the full-time equivalent employees for functional and support costs of CIBC Bank USA are included in the U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management SBU.

Non-GAAP measures

We use a number of financial measures to assess the performance of our business lines. Some measures are calculated in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS or GAAP), while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP, and accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Investors may find these non-GAAP measures, which include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios as defined in National Instrument 52-112 "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure", useful in understanding how management views underlying business performance.
Management assesses results on a reported and adjusted basis and considers both as useful measures of performance. Adjusted measures, which include adjusted total revenue, adjusted provision for credit losses, adjusted non-interest expenses, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted income taxes, adjusted net income and adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings, remove items of note from reported results to calculate our adjusted results. Adjusted measures represent non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP ratios include an adjusted measure as one or more of their components. Non-GAAP ratios include adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted efficiency ratio, adjusted operating leverage, adjusted dividend payout ratio, adjusted return on common shareholders' equity and adjusted effective tax rate.
Certain additional disclosures for these specified financial measures have been incorporated by reference and can be found in the "Non-GAAP measures" section of our 2024 Annual Report available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP (reported) results to non-GAAP (adjusted) results on a segmented basis.

(1)	Items of note are removed from reported results to calculate adjusted results.
(2)	Includes the impact of rounding differences between diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS.
(3)	Adjusted to exclude the impact of items of note. Adjusted measures are non-GAAP measures.
(4)	CIBC total results excludes a TEB adjustment of nil (July 31, 2024: excludes a reversal of $123 million; October 31, 2023: excludes a TEB adjustment of $62 million) and excludes a TEB adjustment of $16 million for the twelve months ended October 31, 2024 (October 31, 2023: excludes a TEB adjustment of $254 million).
(5)	This item of note reports the impact to the consolidated income tax expense in the third quarter of 2024 from the enactment on June 20, 2024 of Bill C-59 that denies the dividends received deduction for dividends received by banks on and after January 1, 2024. The corresponding impact on TEB in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services and Corporate and Other is also included in this item of note with no impact on the consolidated item of note.
(6)	Certain information for 2023 has been restated to reflect the adoption of IFRS 17. For additional information, see Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements of our 2024 Annual Report, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.
(7)	Relates to the net legal provisions recognized in the first and second quarters of 2023.
(8)	The income tax charge is comprised of $510 million for the present value of the estimated amount of the Canada Recovery Dividend (CRD) tax of $555 million, and a charge of $35 million related to the fiscal 2022 impact of the 1.5% increase in the tax rate applied to taxable income of certain bank and insurance entities in excess of $100 million for periods after April 2022. The discount of $45 million on the CRD tax accretes over the four-year payment period from initial recognition.

A NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:

From time to time, we make written or oral forward-looking statements within the meaning of certain securities laws, including in this news release, in other filings with Canadian securities regulators or the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, in other reports to shareholders, and in other communications. All such statements are made pursuant to the "safe harbour" provisions of, and are intended to be forward-looking statements under applicable Canadian and U.S. securities legislation, including the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements made in the "Core business performance", "Strong fundamentals", and "Making a difference in our Communities" sections of this news release, and the Management's Discussion and Analysis in our 2024 Annual Report under the heading "Economic and market environment – Outlook for calendar year 2025" and other statements about our operations, business lines, financial condition, risk management, priorities, targets and sustainability commitments (including with respect to net-zero emissions and our environmental, social and governance (ESG) related activities), ongoing objectives, strategies, the regulatory environment in which we operate and outlook for calendar year 2025 and subsequent periods. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "forecast", "target", "predict", "commit", "ambition", "goal", "strive", "project", "objective" and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "may", "should", "would" and "could". By their nature, these statements require us to make assumptions, including the economic assumptions set out in the "Economic and market environment – Outlook for calendar year 2025" section of our 2024 Annual Report, as updated by quarterly reports, and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific. Given the continuing impact of the interest rate, inflationary, macroeconomic, banking and regulatory environment, the impact of hybrid work arrangements and the lagged impact of high interest rates on the U.S. real estate sector, the softening labour market and uncertain political conditions in the U.S., and the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East on the global economy, financial markets, and our business, results of operations, reputation and financial condition, there is inherently more uncertainty associated with our assumptions as compared to prior periods. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, affect our operations, performance and results, and could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. These factors include: inflationary pressures; global supply-chain disruptions; geopolitical risk, including from the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, the occurrence, continuance or intensification of public health emergencies, such as the impact of post-pandemic hybrid work arrangements, and any related government policies and actions; credit, market, liquidity, strategic, insurance, operational, reputation, conduct and legal, regulatory and environmental risk; currency value and interest rate fluctuations, including as a result of market and oil price volatility; the effectiveness and adequacy of our risk management and valuation models and processes; legislative or regulatory developments in the jurisdictions where we operate, including the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Common Reporting Standard, and regulatory reforms in the United Kingdom and Europe, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's global standards for capital and liquidity reform, and those relating to bank recapitalization legislation and the payments system in Canada; amendments to, and interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions, and interest rate and liquidity regulatory guidance; exposure to, and the resolution of, significant litigation or regulatory matters, our ability to successfully appeal adverse outcomes of such matters and the timing, determination and recovery of amounts related to such matters; the effect of changes to accounting standards, rules and interpretations; changes in our estimates of reserves and allowances; changes in tax laws; changes to our credit ratings; political conditions and developments, including changes relating to economic or trade matters; the possible effect on our business of international conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, and terrorism; natural disasters, disruptions to public infrastructure and other catastrophic events; reliance on third parties to provide components of our business infrastructure; potential disruptions to our information technology systems and services; increasing cyber security risks which may include theft or disclosure of assets, unauthorized access to sensitive information, or operational disruption; social media risk; losses incurred as a result of internal or external fraud; anti-money laundering; the accuracy and completeness of information provided to us concerning clients and counterparties; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to us and our affiliates or associates; intensifying competition from established competitors and new entrants in the financial services industry including through internet and mobile banking; technological change including the use of data and artificial intelligence in our business; global capital market activity; changes in monetary and economic policy; general business and economic conditions worldwide, as well as in Canada, the U.S. and other countries where we have operations, including increasing Canadian household debt levels and global credit risks; climate change and other ESG related risks including our ability to implement various sustainability-related initiatives internally and with our clients under expected time frames and our ability to scale our sustainable finance products and services; our success in developing and introducing new products and services, expanding existing distribution channels, developing new distribution channels and realizing increased revenue from these channels; changes in client spending and saving habits; our ability to attract and retain key employees and executives; our ability to successfully execute our strategies and complete and integrate acquisitions and joint ventures; the risk that expected benefits of an acquisition, merger or divestiture will not be realized within the expected time frame or at all; and our ability to anticipate and manage the risks associated with these factors.
