MONTREAL, August 27, 2025 – For the third quarter of 2025, National Bank is reporting net income of \$1,065 million, up 3% from \$1,033 million in the third quarter of 2024. Diluted earnings per share stood at \$2.58 compared to \$2.89 in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding specified items(1) recorded in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 related to the acquisition of Canadian Western Bank (CWB)(2), adjusted net income(1) stood at \$1,104 million, up 15% from \$960 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) stood at \$2.68, stable compared to the corresponding quarter of 2024.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank's net income totalled \$2,958 million, up 3% from \$2,861 million for the corresponding period in 2024. Diluted earnings per share stood at \$7.50 for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 versus \$8.03 for the corresponding period in 2024, the decrease being attributable to the common shares issued as part of the acquisition of CWB(2). Excluding specified items(1), adjusted net income(1) for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 totalled \$3,320 million, up 19% from \$2,788 million for the corresponding period in 2024, and adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) stood at \$8.46, up 8% from \$7.82 for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, driven by good performance in all of the business segments.
"The Bank reported solid third quarter results, reflecting strong revenue fundamentals and credit performance, combined with synergy momentum from the CWB acquisition. With strong capital levels and a disciplined approach to credit and efficiency, we will continue to execute our CWB integration plan while investing in business growth," said Laurent Ferreira, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Bank of Canada.

The Other heading reported a net loss of \$61 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to a net loss of \$26 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024, owing mainly to the specified items(2) related to the CWB acquisition which had an unfavourable impact of \$21 million on the net loss for the third quarter of 2025 compared to a favourable impact of \$73 million on the net loss of the corresponding quarter of 2024. These elements were partly offset by a higher contribution from Treasury activities and by the inclusion of CWB results.

Certain statements in this document are forward-looking statements. These statements are made in accordance with applicable securities legislation in Canada and the United States. The forward-looking statements in this document may include, but are not limited to, statements in the messages from management, as well as other statements about the economy, market changes, the Bank's objectives, outlook, and priorities for fiscal 2025 and beyond, the strategies or actions that the Bank will take to achieve them, expectations for the Bank's financial condition and operations, the regulatory environment in which it operates, the potential impacts of increased geopolitical uncertainty on the Bank and its clients, its environmental, social, and governance targets and commitments, the impacts and benefits of the acquisition of Canadian Western Bank (CWB), and certain risks to which the Bank is exposed. The Bank may also make forward-looking statements in other documents and regulatory filings, as well as orally. These forward-looking statements are typically identified by verbs or words such as "outlook", "believe", "foresee", "forecast", "anticipate", "estimate", "project", "expect", "intend" and "plan", the use of future or conditional forms, notably verbs such as "will", "may", "should", "could" or "would", as well as similar terms and expressions.
These forward-looking statements are intended to assist the security holders of the Bank in understanding the Bank's financial position and results of operations as at the dates indicated and for the periods then ended, as well as the Bank's vision, strategic objectives, and performance targets, and may not be appropriate for other purposes. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and intentions that the Bank deems reasonable as at the date thereof and are subject to inherent uncertainty and risks, many of which are beyond the Bank's control. There is a strong possibility that the Bank's express or implied predictions, forecasts, projections, expectations, or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that its assumptions will not be confirmed, and that its vision, strategic objectives, and performance targets will not be achieved. The Bank cautions investors that these forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual events or results may differ materially from these statements due to a number of factors. Therefore, the Bank recommends that readers not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, as a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations, estimates, or intentions expressed in these forward-looking statements. Investors and others who rely on the Bank's forward-looking statements should carefully consider the factors listed below as well as other uncertainties and potential events and the risks they entail. Except as required by law, the Bank does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, by it or on its behalf.
Assumptions about the performance of the Canadian and U.S. economies in 2025, in particular in the context of increased geopolitical uncertainty, and how that performance will affect the Bank's business are among the factors considered in setting the Bank's strategic priorities and objectives, including allowances for credit losses. These assumptions appear in the 2024 Annual Report in the Economic Review and Outlook section and, for each business segment, in the Economic and Market Review sections of the 2024 Annual Reportand the Economic Review and Outlook section of this document, and may be updated in the quarterly reports to shareholders filed thereafter.
The forward-looking statements made in this document are based on a number of assumptions and their future outcome is subject to a variety of risk factors, many of which are beyond the Bank's control and the impacts of which are difficult to predict. These risk factors include, among others, the general economic environment and business and financial market conditions in Canada, the United States, and the other countries where the Bank operates, including recession risk; geopolitical and sociopolitical uncertainty; the measures affecting trade relations between Canada and its partners, including the imposition of tariffs and any measures taken in response to such tariffs, as well as the possible impacts on our clients, our operations and, more generally, the economy; exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations; inflation; global supply chain disruptions; higher funding costs and greater market volatility; changes to fiscal, monetary, and other public policies; regulatory oversight and changes to regulations that affect the Bank's business; the Bank's ability to successfully integrate CWB and the undisclosed costs or liability associated with the acquisition; climate change, including physical risks and risks related to the transition to a low-carbon economy; the Bank's ability to meet stakeholder expectations on environmental and social issues, the need for active and continued stakeholder engagement; the availability of comprehensive and high-quality information from customers and other third parties, including greenhouse gas emissions; the ability of the Bank to develop indicators to effectively monitor progress; the development and deployment of new technologies and sustainable products; the ability of the Bank to identify climate-related opportunities as well as to assess and manage climaterelated risks; significant changes in consumer behaviour; the housing situation, real estate market, and household indebtedness in Canada; the Bank's ability to achieve its key short-term priorities and long-term strategies; the timely development and launch of new products and services; the ability of the Bank to recruit and retain key personnel; technological innovation, including open banking and the use of artificial intelligence; heightened competition from established companies and from competitors offering non-traditional services; model risk; changes in the performance and creditworthiness of the Bank's clients and counterparties; the Bank's exposure to significant regulatory issues or litigation; changes made to the accounting policies used by the Bank to report its financial position, including the uncertainty related to assumptions and significant accounting estimates; changes to tax legislation in the countries where the Bank operates; changes to capital and liquidity guidelines as well as to the instructions related to the presentation and interpretation thereof; changes to the credit ratings assigned to the Bank by financial and extra-financial rating agencies; potential disruptions to key suppliers of goods and services to the Bank; third-party risk, including failure by third parties to fulfil their obligations to the Bank; the potential impacts of disruptions to the Bank's information technology systems due to cyberattacks and theft or disclosure of data, including personal information and identity theft; the risk of fraudulent activity; and possible impacts of major events on the economy, market conditions, or the Bank's outlook, including international conflicts, natural disasters, public health crises, and the measures taken in response to these events; and the ability of the Bank to anticipate and successfully manage risks arising from all of the foregoing factors
The foregoing list of risk factors is not exhaustive, and the forward-looking statements made in this document are also subject to credit risk, market risk, liquidity and funding risk, operational risk, regulatory compliance risk, reputation risk, strategic risk, and social and environmental risk as well as certain emerging risks or risks deemed significant. Additional information about these factors is provided in the Risk Management section of the 2024 Annual Reportas well as in the Risk Management section of this Report to Shareholders for the third quarter of 2025 and may be updated in the quarterly reports to shareholders filed thereafter.
On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB, a diversified financial services institution based in Edmonton, Alberta, in which the Bank had already been holding a 5.9% equity interest. This transaction will enable the Bank to accelerate its growth across Canada. The business combination brings together two complementary Canadian banks with growing businesses, thereby enhancing customer service by offering a full range of products and services nationwide, with a regionally focused service model.
The total consideration transferred of \$6.8 billion included \$5.3 billion for 100% of the common shares of CWB acquired by way of a share exchange at an exchange ratio of 0.450 of a common share of the National Bank for each CWB common share, other than those held by the National Bank, \$1.4 billion for the settlement of pre-existing relationships and \$0.1 billion for the issuance of replacement share-based payment awards. The fair value of the Bank's common shares issued was determined on the basis of the share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) at closing on January 31, 2025 at a price of \$128.99 per share. At acquisition date, the Bank obtained a 100% interest in the CWB voting shares and the 5.9% previously held interest was remeasured to its fair value of \$0.3 billion. The non-controlling interest in CWB recognized at acquisition date was measured at a fair value of \$0.6 billion and represented CWB's preferred shares and Limited Recourse Capital Notes (LRCN) outstanding on that date. Total purchase consideration amounted to \$7.7 billion.
Based on the estimated fair values, the preliminary purchase price allocation, including goodwill, assigns \$45.4 billion to assets and \$37.7 billion to liabilities at acquisition date. The estimated goodwill of \$1.6 billion reflects the expected expense synergies from our Personal and Commercial and Wealth Management banking services operations, expected funding synergies, and the expected growth from the product and service platform at a national scale. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
For additional information, see Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following table present the impacts of the CWB acquisition on the results of Personal and Commercial, the main segment impacted, and the Bank's consolidated results.

While the United States is still negotiating trade agreements with many countries, those that are already concluded (with Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia, the United Kingdom and the European Union) unfortunately suggest that any return to the status quo in international trade is not in the cards. Even those countries that have managed to reach agreements with Washington have not been able to completely eliminate the tariffs imposed on them. For all the countries concerned, higher trade barriers will lead to slower growth, all other things being equal, but we do not believe that this will be the eventual result. We think that most governments around the world will respond to any signs of weaker growth by loosening the purse strings, since this has been the reflex ever since the beginning of the pandemic. While fiscal stimulus measures may well complicate public finances by pushing up long-term yields and, by extension, the cost of servicing debt, they could nevertheless offset some of the negative impact of tariffs and keep global growth resilient.
In the U.S., the economic data have been rather disappointing. More specifically, consumption has been relatively weak since the beginning of the year. This slowdown can be attributed in part to a weakening labour market, but it also reflects the delayed effect of interest rate hikes. It should be remembered that following the pandemic, households not only relied on generous government support to increase spending, they also took advantage of extremely low borrowing costs to take on more debt. This frenzy is now coming back to haunt some consumers, particularly in areas where rate changes are passed on more quickly to debt holders, such as in advances on credit cards. And we do not expect this situation to improve significantly in the coming months, as rates are likely to remain high for the foreseeable future while inflation remains stubbornly too high. In the meanwhile, this should translate into below-potential growth. However, the situation could turn around fairly quickly in 2026, when the effects of the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) will begin to be felt. According to the Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania, the tax cuts and spending increases in this legislation will inject no less than \$3.2 trillion into the U.S. economy over the next decade, with a significant portion of this amount coming in the first three years. Although certain factors could dampen the impact of the OBBB on the economy, the law is still expected to stimulate significant growth in 2026 (impact of 0.5%(1) on annual growth). This would translate into 1.4%(1) growth in both 2025 and 2026.
As negotiations on a trade agreement between Canada and the United States have stalled, the U.S. government raised the tariffs on Canadian imports from 25% to 35% in August (except for energy and potash, which remain at 10%). At first glance, it might seem that the U.S. is imposing on Canada one of the highest tariff rates in the world. But this is not the case, as the rate only applies to goods that do not comply with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). Compliance has quickly improved since these tariffs were introduced, so the effective tariff rate on exports to the United States has fallen significantly. It stands at around 5% according to our calculations, with most of the exposure tied to sectoral duties, especially those on metal products and automobiles. Nevertheless, tariff uncertainty has been hobbling the economy back since the beginning of the year. The unemployment rate has risen by three-tenths of a percentage point (from 6.6% to 6.9%) since February, while the economy is on track to have contracted in the second quarter. This weakness also appears to be continuing into the third quarter. Problems are apparent in the manufacturing sector, where activity contracted significantly in July, as reflected in the S&P Global Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI). Weakness in this sector alone should not give too much cause for concern, as it now accounts for only 10% of GDP and the labour market. Unfortunately, this does not appear to be the case. Canada's Services PMI is also in contraction and stands among the weakest of the countries covered. Household spending has held up so far, but it could come under pressure. Hiring intentions are weak, and the uncertainty could prompt households to cut back on spending. In addition, despite interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada, borrowers who need to renew their loans will see their mortgage payments increase by an average of 10% in 2025. Developments in the housing market also suggest that interest rates are probably still too high. These weaknesses are particularly apparent in the urban centers of Ontario and British Columbia. Although uncertainty over tariffs weakened the Canadian economy in the first half of the year, unfortunately this has not yet eased inflationary pressures, preventing the Bank of Canada from lowering its key interest rate further. Nevertheless, we continue to believe that further monetary easing will be necessary by the end of the year. With the labour market deteriorating, wages are showing signs of moderating, and this bodes well for inflation in the coming months. We are maintaining our economic growth forecasts at 1.3%(1) for 2025 and 1.1%(1) for 2026. The unemployment rate is expected to average 7.0%(1) in 2025 and 7.1%(1) in 2026.
Given the current uncertainty around tariffs, Quebec's economy is on track to have experienced a more pronounced contraction in the second quarter than the rest of the country. It is vulnerable to Uncle Sam's tariff salvos, partly because the province has a larger manufacturing sector (12.3% of GDP compared to 9.1% nationally), but also because it has a higher tariff rate than the country as a whole (7.6% compared to 4.9%). However, we continue to believe that the Quebec economy is well positioned to weather the challenges it currently faces. First, it is less vulnerable to sectoral shocks. Quebec is the fourth most diversified economy in North America, after Manitoba, Pennsylvania and Texas. In terms of exports, Quebec is the most diversified province. In addition, Quebec consumers have been less affected by the fight against inflation since 2022 and the resulting restrictive monetary policy, as they are less indebted due to more affordable housing prices. In fact, despite the current uncertainty, Quebec's real estate market is proving to be more resilient, particularly, when compared with Ontario and British Columbia. Quebec households have a higher savings rate than the rest of the country, which could enable them to better withstand headwinds. And the labour market is holding up well. The unemployment rate has risen slightly from its low in February (5.3%), but at 5.5%, it is still well below the national average (6.9%) and the third lowest among Canada's provinces. Our growth forecasts for Quebec are 1.1%(1) in 2025 and 0.9%(1) in 2026. With a population that is growing more slowly than in the rest of the country, Quebec is expected to continue to have one of the lowest unemployment rates in Canada, averaging 5.9%(1) in 2025 and 6.0%(1) in 2026 (compared to 7.1%(1) for Canada).

The Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB and represent Canadian GAAP.
Effective November 1, 2024, the Bank discontinued taxable equivalent basis (TEB) reporting for revenues and income taxes. Using the TEB method is less relevant since the introduction of the Pillar 2 rules (global minimum tax) during the first quarter of 2025 and Bill C-59 in relation to the taxation of certain Canadian dividends during fiscal 2024. This change has no impact on net income previously disclosed. Data for the 2024 periods were adjusted to reflect this change.
On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB. CWB's results were consolidated from the closing date, which impacted the results, balances and ratios for the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 in the Personal and Commercial, Wealth Management, and Financial Markets segments and in the Other heading of segment disclosures. For additional information on the impact of the CWB acquisition on the Bank's results, see the Acquisition section.
The Bank uses a number of financial measures when assessing its results and measuring overall performance. Some of these financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. Regulation 52-112 Respecting Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure (Regulation 52-112) prescribes disclosure requirements that apply to the following measures used by the Bank:
The Bank uses non-GAAP financial measures that do not have standardized meanings under GAAP and that therefore may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Presenting non-GAAP financial measures helps readers to better understand how management analyzes results, shows the impacts of specified items on the results of the reported periods, and allows readers to better assess results without the specified items if they consider such items not to be reflective of the underlying performance of the Bank's operations.
The key non-GAAP financial measures used by the Bank to analyze its results are described below, and a quantitative reconciliation of these measures is presented in the tables in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures section on pages 10 to 12 and in the Consolidated Results table on page 14. It should be noted that, for the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, as part of the CWB transaction, several acquisition-related items have been excluded from results since, in the opinion of management, they do not reflect the underlying performance of the Bank's operations, in particular, acquisition and integration charges, amortization of intangible assets related to the CWB acquisition and the income tax recovery related to a change in tax treatment. In addition, for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the amortization of subscription receipt issuance costs, the gain resulting from the remeasurement at fair value of the CWB common shares already held by the Bank, the loss resulting from the impact of managing fair value changes and the initial provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans acquired from CWB were excluded from the results. For the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, several acquisition-related items had been excluded from results (in particular, the amortization of the subscription receipt issuance costs, the gain resulting from the remeasurement at fair value of the CWB common shares already held by the Bank, the loss resulting from the impact of managing fair value changes and acquisition and integration charges).

This item represents non-trading net interest income excluding specified items. It includes revenues related to financial assets and financial liabilities associated with non-trading activities, net of interest expenses and interest income related to the financing of these financial assets and financial liabilities, and is used to calculate adjusted non-trading net interest margin. Specified items are excluded so that adjusted non-trading net interest income can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
This item represents net interest income related to trading activities which comprises dividends related to financial assets and liabilities associated with trading activities and certain interest income related to the financing of these financial assets and liabilities, net of interest expenses.
This item represents non-interest income related to trading activities which consists of realized and unrealized gains and losses as well as interest income on securities measured at fair value through profit or loss, income from held-for-trading derivative financial instruments, changes in the fair value of loans at fair value through profit or loss, changes in the fair value of financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss, realized and unrealized gains and losses as well as interest expense on obligations related to securities sold short, certain commission income as well as other trading activity revenues, and any applicable transaction costs.
This item represents trading activity revenues which comprise dividends related to financial assets and financial liabilities associated with trading activities; certain interest income related to the financing of these financial assets and liabilities, net of interest expenses; realized and unrealized gains and losses as well as interest income on securities measured at fair value through profit or loss; income from held-for-trading derivative financial instruments; changes in the fair value of loans at fair value through profit or loss; changes in the fair value of financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss; realized and unrealized gains and losses as well as interest expense on obligations related to securities sold short; certain commission income as well as other trading activity revenues, and any applicable transaction costs.
The Bank uses non-GAAP ratios that do not have standardized meanings under GAAP and that may therefore not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. A non-GAAP ratio is a ratio in which at least one component is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Bank uses non-GAAP ratios to present aspects of its financial performance or financial position.
The key non-GAAP ratios used by the Bank are described below.
This item represents ROA excluding specified items. It is adjusted net income expressed as a percentage of average assets. This ratio is used to measure the Bank's efficiency in using all its assets to generate profits. Specified items are excluded so that ROA can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
This item represents ROE excluding specified items. It is adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders expressed as a percentage of average equity attributable to common shareholders. It is a general measure of the Bank's efficiency in using equity. Specified items are excluded so that ROE can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
This item represents the dividend payout ratio excluding specified items. It is dividends on common shares (per share amount) expressed as a percentage of adjusted basic earnings per share. This ratio is a measure of the proportion of earnings that is paid out to shareholders in the form of dividends. Specified items are excluded so that the dividend payout ratio can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
This item represents operating leverage excluding specified items. It is the difference between the growth rate of adjusted total revenues and the growth rate of adjusted non-interest expenses, and it measures the sensitivity of the Bank's results to changes in its revenues. Specified items are excluded so that the operating leverage can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
This item represents the efficiency ratio excluding specified items. The ratio represents adjusted non-interest expenses expressed as a percentage of adjusted total revenues. It measures the efficiency of the Bank's operations. Specified items are excluded so that the efficiency ratio can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
This item represents the non-trading net interest margin excluding specified items. It is calculated by dividing adjusted non-trading net interest income by average non-trading interest-bearing assets. This ratio is a measure of the profitability of non-trading activities. Specified items are excluded so that the net interest margin, non-trading can be better evaluated by excluding items that management believes do not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Bank's operations.
A supplementary financial measure is a financial measure that: (a) is not reported in the Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements, and (b) is, or is intended to be, reported periodically to represent historical or expected financial performance, financial position, or cash flows. The composition of these supplementary financial measures is presented in table footnotes or in the Glossary section on pages 53 to 56 of this MD&A.
The financial reporting framework used to prepare the financial statements requires disclosure that helps readers assess the Bank's capital management objectives, policies, and processes, as set out in IFRS in IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements. The Bank has its own methods for managing capital and liquidity, and IFRS do not prescribe any particular calculation method. These measures are calculated using various guidelines and advisories issued by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (Canada) (OSFI), which are based on the standards, recommendations, and best practices of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), as presented in the following table.

For the third quarter of 2025, the Bank is reporting net income of \$1,065 million, up 3% from \$1,033 million in the third quarter of 2024. Diluted earnings per share stood at \$2.58 in the third quarter of 2025 compared to \$2.89 for the third quarter of 2024. Excluding specified items recorded in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 related to the acquisition of CWB, adjusted net income stood at \$1,104 million, up 15% from \$960 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. Adjusted diluted earnings per share stood at \$2.68, stable compared to the corresponding quarter of 2024.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank's net income totalled \$2,958 million, up 3% from \$2,861 million for the corresponding period in 2024. Diluted earnings per share stood at \$7.50 for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, versus \$8.03 for the corresponding period in 2024, the decrease being attributable to the common shares issued as part of the acquisition of CWB. Excluding specified items, adjusted net income for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 totalled \$3,320 million, up 19% from \$2,788 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, and adjusted diluted earnings per share stood at \$8.46, up 8% from \$7.82 for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, driven by good performance in all of the business segments.
Return on common shareholders' equity was 13.8% for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, compared to 17.5% in the corresponding period of 2024.
For the third quarter of 2025, the Bank's total revenues amounted to \$3,449 million, up \$453 million or 15% compared to the corresponding quarter of 2024, of which the inclusion of CWB drove a 9% increase. In the Personal and Commercial segment, total revenues rose due to the inclusion of CWB revenues, growth in personal and commercial loans and deposits (including the transition from bankers' acceptances to loans referencing the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA)), which more than offset the impact of a lower net interest margin, as well as to the increase in internal commission revenues related to the distribution of Wealth Management products. These increases were partly offset by lower credit fees related to the transition of bankers' acceptances to CORRA loans and revenues related to merger and acquisition activities. The growth in total revenues in the Wealth Management segment was mainly attributable to increases in fee-based revenues, notably revenues from investment management and trust service fees, as well as mutual fund revenues. This growth was also due to an increase in net interest income and securities brokerage commissions, which was driven by an increase in client activity. Total revenues for the Financial Markets segment for the third quarter of 2025 increased by 13% compared to the third quarter of 2024 as a result of higher corporate and investment banking revenues. In the USSF&I segment, total revenues were up 11% compared to the third quarter of 2024 as a result of revenue growth at the ABA Bank subsidiary, stemming from business growth, and dividend income recorded in the third quarter of 2025 on an investment in a financial group. Total revenues for the Other heading were lower in the third quarter of 2025 than in the corresponding quarter of 2024, due to a \$120 million gain recorded in the third quarter of 2024 in gains on non-trading securities as a result of the remeasurement at fair value of the interest in CWB already held by the Bank, partly offset by a higher contribution from Treasury activities and the inclusion of CWB's revenues.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank's total revenues amounted to \$10,282 million, compared to \$8,456 million in the corresponding period of 2024, an increase of \$1,826 million or 22%, of which the inclusion of CWB drove an increase of \$582 million or 7%. Total revenues for the Financial Markets segment were up \$768 million, or 38%, compared to the corresponding period in 2024, mainly due to significant growth in global markets revenues. In the Personal and Commercial segment, total revenues rose \$586 million or 17%, mainly driven by the inclusion of CWB which contributed \$468 million to the segment's total revenues. The remaining increase is explained by the increase in net interest income arising from growth in loans and deposits (including the transition of bankers' acceptances to CORRA loans), partly offset by a decrease in the net interest margin, as well as growth in internal commission revenues related to the distribution of Wealth Management products. These increases were partly offset by a decrease in revenues from bankers' acceptances and revenues related to merger and acquisition activities. The increase in total revenues in the Wealth Management segment was mainly due to increases from fee-based revenues, notably revenues from investment management and trust service fees, as well as mutual fund revenues as a result of growth in assets under administration and under management. The growth was also attributable to the rise in net interest income and securities brokerage commissions, which was driven by an increase in client activity. In the USSF&I segment, total revenues rose 15% compared to the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, which was driven by revenue growth at the ABA Bank subsidiary stemming from business growth and revenue growth at Credigy. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, total revenues in the Other heading were lower than in the corresponding period in 2024, mainly due to a \$120 million gain recorded in the third quarter of 2024 as a result of the remeasurement at fair value of the interest in CWB already held by the Bank and the unfavourable impact of specified items related to the acquisition of CWB recorded during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025. These items were partly offset by a higher contribution from Treasury activities and the inclusion of CWB's revenues. Excluding specified items, adjusted total revenues amounted to \$10,329 million in the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, up 24% from \$8,348 million recorded in the corresponding period of 2024.
For the third quarter of 2025, non-interest expenses stood at \$1,925 million, up \$384 million or 25% from the corresponding quarter of 2024, of which \$178 million or 12% was attributable to the inclusion of CWB. Compensation and employee benefits were higher than in the third quarter of 2024 owing to salary growth as well as higher variable compensation related to revenue growth. Occupancy expenses, including depreciation expense, were up compared to the third quarter of 2024, due to the inclusion of CWB, expenses related to the Bank's new head office building and the expansion of the banking network at the ABA Bank subsidiary. The increase in technology expenses, including depreciation expense, is attributable to investments made to support the Bank's technological evolution and business development plan. Professional fees rose, notably due to expenses related to the acquisition and integration of CWB recorded during the third quarter of 2025. Communication expenses were also higher compared to the corresponding quarter of 2024. The increase in other expenses was mainly due to the amortization of intangible assets related to the CWB acquisition. Excluding specified items related to the CWB acquisition, adjusted non-interest expenses stood at \$1,806 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 18% from \$1,534 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024, of which 9% stems from the inclusion of CWB.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, non-interest expenses totalled \$5,513 million, up 24% compared to the corresponding period in 2024, partly due to the inclusion of CWB, which explained a 9% increase. The growth in non-interest expenses was essentially due to the same reasons provided above for the quarter. In addition, a \$22 million reversal of the provision for property taxes related to the Bank's new head office recorded during the second quarter of 2025 explains the change in occupancy expenses. Specified items recorded in non-interest expense stood at \$287 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 compared to \$7 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024. Adjusted non-interest expenses were \$5,226 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, a 17% increase from \$4,455 million for the corresponding period in 2024, of which 7% stems from the inclusion of CWB.
For the third quarter of 2025, the Bank recorded provisions for credit losses of \$203 million compared to \$149 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. Provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans were up \$26 million compared to the third quarter of 2024, mainly due to loan portfolio growth, the effects of the migration of credit risk, which were less favourable in the third quarter of 2025, and the recalibration of certain risk parameters. These increases were partly offset by the impact related to updated macroeconomic scenarios, which was more favourable than in the corresponding quarter of 2024, and reduced uncertainties surrounding the imposition of tariffs. In addition, provisions for credit losses on impaired loans excluding Credigy's purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) loans(1) rose \$28 million compared to the third quarter of 2024. This increase was attributable to Personal Banking (including credit card receivables) and Commercial Banking (including CWB), partly offset by a decrease in the provisions for credit losses on impaired loans in the Financial Markets segment.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank's provisions for credit losses totalled \$1,002 million compared to \$407 million in the corresponding period in 2024. This significant increase stemmed in part from initial provisions for credit losses of \$230 million recorded on non-impaired loans acquired from CWB. In addition, the increase was due to higher provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans, mainly due to the recalibration of certain risk parameters, uncertainties surrounding the imposition of new tariffs and the impact related to updated macroeconomic scenarios, which was less favourable than in the corresponding period in 2024. Provisions for credit losses on impaired loans excluding Credigy's POCI loans(1) increased due to Personal Banking (including credit card receivables) and Commercial Banking, the Financial Markets segment and the Credigy and ABA Bank subsidiaries. In addition, the Credigy subsidiary recorded provisions for credit losses on POCI loans of \$13 million during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 compared to \$8 million during the corresponding period of 2024, an increase explained by the remeasurement of certain portfolios.
For the third quarter of 2025, income taxes stood at \$256 million compared to \$273 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. The 2025 third-quarter effective income tax rate was 19% compared to 21% in the corresponding quarter of 2024. This was mainly due to the recognition of a one-time tax recovery related to a change in tax treatment, partly offset by the impact of applying the Pillar 2 rules (for additional information, see the Income Taxes section).
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the effective income tax rate stood at 21% compared to 20% in the corresponding nine-month period of 2024. The change in effective income tax rate was due to the same reasons as those mentioned for the quarter and a lower level of tax-exempt income for the ninemonth period ended July 31, 2025.

(1) On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB. CWB's results were consolidated from the closing date, which impacted the results, balances and ratios for the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025. For additional information on the impact of the CWB acquisition, see the Acquisition section.
(2) See the Financial Reporting Method section on pages 6 to 12 for additional information on non-GAAP financial measures. During the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded several items related to the CWB acquisition, including amortization of intangible assets of \$16 million net of income taxes (\$33 million net of income taxes for the ninemonth period ended July 31, 2025). In addition, for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded acquisition and integration charges of \$1 million and initial provisions for credit losses of \$166 million net of income taxes recorded on non-impaired loans acquired from CWB.

In the Personal and Commercial segment, net income totalled \$370 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 1% from \$366 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. The increase in the segment's total revenues was partly offset by higher non-interest expenses (including specified items recorded in the third quarter of 2025) and provisions for credit losses. Adjusted net income was \$386 million, up 5% from the same quarter in 2024. The 29% increase in net interest income in the third quarter of 2025 was driven in part by the inclusion of CWB, which contributed to a 23% increase, as well as by growth in personal and commercial loans and deposits (including the transition of bankers' acceptances to loans at the CORRA rate), which more than offset the impact of a lower net interest margin. In addition, non-interest income decreased by 6% compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024.
Personal Banking's total revenues increased by \$50 million compared to the third quarter of 2024. This increase was driven by growth in loans and deposits, partly offset by a narrower margin on deposits, the increase in internal commission revenues related to the distribution of Wealth Management products and the inclusion of CWB's revenues. Commercial Banking's total revenues grew \$201 million compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024, mainly due to the inclusion of CWB's revenues and to an increase in net interest income that was driven by loan growth (including the transition of bankers' acceptances to loans at the CORRA rate) and deposit growth, partly offset by a reduction in the net interest margin. This increase was partly offset by a decline in revenues from bankers' acceptances related to the transition of bankers' acceptances to loans at the CORRA rate as well as revenues related to merger and acquisition activities.
For the third quarter of 2025, the segment's non-interest expenses stood at \$805 million, including specified items of \$23 million, up 31% compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024, due to the inclusion of CWB's non-interest expenses contributing to a 22% increase. The increase in non-interest expenses was also due to higher compensation and employee benefits, mainly from salary increases, fees and greater investments made as part of the segment's technological evolution, as well as an \$11 million lump-sum reimbursement recorded in the third quarter of 2024. The efficiency ratio of 55.6% in the third quarter of 2025 has deteriorated compared to the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted non-interest expenses amounted to \$782 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to \$615 million in the third quarter of 2024. The adjusted efficiency ratio stood at 54.0% in the third quarter of 2025, compared to 51.3% in the third quarter of 2024.
The segment recorded provisions for credit losses of \$134 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to \$79 million in the third quarter of 2024, up \$55 million. This increase is mainly explained by higher provisions for credit losses on impaired loans in Personal Banking (including credit card receivables) and in Commercial Banking. In addition, provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans were up compared to the corresponding quarter of 2024.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Personal and Commercial segment's net income was \$792 million, down 22% from \$1,016 million in the corresponding period in 2024, mainly due to the increase in provisions for credit losses, notably the initial provisions for credit losses of \$230 million on the non-impaired loans acquired from CWB recorded in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income was down 2% compared to \$1,016 million for the corresponding period in 2024, attributable to higher provisions for credit losses, which more than offset CWB's contribution. The increase in Personal Banking's total revenues was mainly due to growth in loans and deposits and an increase in the loan margin (partly offset by a narrower margin on deposits), as well as higher internal commission revenues arising from the distribution of the Wealth Management segment's products and the inclusion of CWB's revenues. In addition, the increase in Commercial Banking's total revenues was due to the inclusion of CWB's revenues and to growth in loans and deposits, partly offset by a narrower margin on loans and deposits. These increases were partly offset by a decline in credit fees related to the transition from bankers' acceptances to loans at the CORRA rate and a decrease in revenues related to merger and acquisition activities.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, non-interest expenses stood at \$2,250 million, a 22% increase compared to the corresponding period in 2024, due to the same reasons provided above for the quarter, notably the inclusion of CWB, which drove a 16% increase in non-interest expenses. The efficiency ratio of 55.3% has deteriorated compared to the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024. The segment's adjusted non-interest expenses increased by 20% compared to \$1,842 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024. The adjusted efficiency ratio was 54.1% for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, compared to 52.9% for the corresponding period in 2024. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, provisions for credit losses amounted to \$722 million, an increase of \$483 million compared to the corresponding period in 2024. This increase was due to initial provisions on credit losses of \$230 million on non-impaired loans acquired from CWB recorded in the second quarter of 2025 and higher provisions for credit losses on impaired loans in Personal Banking (including credit card receivables) as well as in Commercial Banking, attributable in particular to the portfolios acquired from CWB. In addition, provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans increased.

In the Wealth Management segment, net income totalled \$244 million in the third quarter of 2025, a 12% increase from \$217 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. The segment's total revenues amounted to \$811 million, up \$95 million or 13% from \$716 million in the third quarter of 2024. The 7% increase in net interest income compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024 was due to higher loan and deposit volumes as well as the favourable impact of the change in the composition of deposits. The 18% increase in fee-based revenues was due to the rise in stock markets compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024 and positive net inflows for the various solutions. Transaction and other revenues rose 7% compared to the third quarter of 2024 due to increased client activity. The inclusion of CWB's revenues also contributed to the increase in the segment's revenues.
Non-interest expenses stood at \$477 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 15% from \$416 million in the third quarter of 2024, partly due to the inclusion of CWB. This increase was also explained by higher compensation and employee benefits, due in particular to variable compensation in line with revenue growth and higher technology expenses related to the segment's initiatives. The deterioration of the efficiency ratio, which stood at 58.8% in the third quarter of 2025, was due to the inclusion of CWB's results. Adjusted non-interest expenses stood at \$475 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to \$416 million in the third quarter of 2024. The adjusted efficiency ratio was 58.6% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to 58.1% in the corresponding quarter of 2024. Provisions for credit losses stood at \$1 million in the third quarter of 2025, whereas they were negligible in the third quarter of 2024.
In the Wealth Management segment, net income totalled \$718 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 compared to \$618 million for the corresponding period of 2024, for an increase of 16%. The segment's total revenues stood at \$2,378 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, an increase of 15% compared to \$2,059 million for the corresponding period in 2024. Net interest income increased by 12%, due to growth in loan and deposit volumes, the favourable impact of the change in the composition of deposits and the inclusion of CWB. Fee-based revenues increased by 19%, due to growth in assets under administration and under management as a result of stronger stock markets, positive net inflows for the various solutions and the inclusion of CWB's revenues. In addition, transaction and other income increased by 10% compared to the corresponding period in 2024 due to increased client activity. Non-interest expenses stood at \$1,394 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, compared to \$1,206 million for the corresponding period in 2024, an increase of 16%, due to the same reasons provided above for the quarter. The efficiency ratio for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 was 58.6% and stable compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Provisions for credit losses stood at \$2 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, whereas they were negligible in the corresponding period of 2024.

In the Financial Markets segment, net income totalled \$334 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 5% from \$318 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. The impact of including CWB in this segment's results for the quarter was not material. Total revenues amounted to \$777 million, compared to \$689 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of \$88 million or 13%. Global markets revenues were up 3% as a result of a 14% increase in interest rate and credit revenues and a 78% increase in commodities and foreign exchange revenues, partly offset by a 17% decrease in equities revenues. Corporate and investment banking revenues for the third quarter of 2025 increased 24% compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024 due to growth in banking service revenues, capital markets revenues and merger and acquisition revenues.
Non-interest expenses stood at \$347 million in the third quarter of 2025, an 8% increase compared to the third quarter of 2024, attributable to higher compensation and employee benefits, notably caused by variable compensation resulting from revenue growth, as well as the increase in technology investment expenses. The efficiency ratio was 44.7% in the third quarter of 2025, an improvement of 1.7 percentage points from 46.4% in the corresponding quarter of 2024. In the quarter ended July 31, 2025, provisions for credit losses were up \$2 million compared to the third quarter of 2024. Provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans increased by \$23 million compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024, mainly as a result of loan portfolio growth. In addition, the segment recorded a recovery of credit losses on impaired loans of \$1 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to provisions for credit losses of \$20 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the segment's net income totalled \$1,252 million, up 32% compared to the corresponding period in 2024. The impact of including CWB in this segment's results for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 was not material. Total revenues amounted to \$2,785 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, for strong growth of \$768 million or 38% compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Global markets revenues were up 63%, driven by increases in all types of revenues, mainly equities revenues. In addition, corporate and investment banking revenues were up 10% compared to the corresponding period in 2024, due to the same reasons provided above for the quarter.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, non-interest expenses rose 18% compared to the corresponding period in 2024, mainly due to higher variable compensation, technology investment expenses and other expenses related to the segment's business growth. The efficiency ratio for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 was 40.1%, an improvement of 6.8 percentage points from 46.9% recorded for the corresponding period in 2024. This improvement was driven by a significant increase in revenues. Financial Markets recorded provisions for credit losses of \$124 million in the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, compared to \$50 million for the same period of 2024. This increase was mainly due to higher provisions for credit losses on impaired loans and, to a lesser extent, on non-impaired loans, as a result of loan portfolio growth.

In the USSF&I segment, net income totalled \$178 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 13% from \$158 million in the corresponding quarter in 2024, mainly attributable to the ABA Bank subsidiary. The segment's total revenues were \$402 million, up \$41 million or 11% compared to \$361 million in the third quarter of 2024. This increase is mainly explained by the 16% rise in the revenues of the ABA Bank subsidiary and dividend income recorded in the third quarter of 2025 on an investment in a financial group. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the segment recorded net income of \$530 million, an increase of 13% compared to \$471 million recorded in the corresponding period in 2024.
For the third quarter of 2025, the Credigy subsidiary reported net income of \$58 million, up \$2 million or 4% compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024. Total revenues amounted to \$136 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to \$139 million in the third quarter of 2024, a decrease that was driven by higher gains from the remeasurement of the fair value of certain portfolios in the third quarter of 2024. Non-interest expenses stood at \$40 million in the third quarter of 2025, a \$1 million increase from the corresponding quarter in 2024. Provisions for credit losses decreased by \$7 million compared to the third quarter of 2024 due to the decrease in provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Credigy subsidiary reported net income of \$174 million, up 4% from the corresponding period in 2024. Total revenues amounted to \$422 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, up from \$400 million in the corresponding period in 2024. This increase was due to growth in loan volumes and the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, partly offset by a gain realized on the disposal of a loan portfolio and revenues related to the under-utilization of credit facilities recorded during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024. Non-interest expenses were \$119 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, up \$11 million from the corresponding period in 2024, owing to compensation and employee benefits, servicing fees, and the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. The subsidiary reported a \$2 million increase in provisions for credit losses compared to the corresponding period in 2024, due to the increase in provisions for credit losses on impaired loans and POCI loans, partly offset by the decrease in provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans.
For the third quarter of 2025, the ABA Bank subsidiary recorded net income totalling \$119 million, up \$16 million or 16% from the corresponding quarter in 2024. Total revenues rose 16%, mainly attributable to sustained growth in assets. Non-interest expenses for the third quarter of 2025 stood at \$89 million, up \$13 million or 17% compared to the third quarter of 2024 due to an increase in compensation and employee benefits and occupancy expenses driven by the subsidiary's business growth and the opening of new branches. The subsidiary reported provisions for credit losses totalling \$20 million in the third quarter of 2025, up \$3 million compared to the corresponding quarter in 2024. This increase was due to higher provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the ABA Bank subsidiary recorded net income totalling \$346 million, up \$51 million or 17% from the corresponding period in 2024. The 21% increase in total revenues compared to the corresponding period in 2024 stemmed from business expansion at the subsidiary, driven mainly by sustained asset growth, and the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. ABA Bank reported non-interest expenses totalling \$249 million, up 16% compared to the corresponding period in 2024, due to the same reasons provided above for the quarter as well as the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. The subsidiary reported provisions for credit losses totalling \$70 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, up \$31 million from the corresponding period in 2024, owing to higher provisions for credit losses on impaired loans and non-impaired loans related to the uncertainties around the imposition of new tariffs.

(1) On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB. CWB's results were consolidated from the closing date, which impacted the results, balances and ratios for the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025. For additional information on the impact of the CWB acquisition, see the Acquisition section.
(2) Certain amounts have been adjusted to reflect the discontinuation of taxable equivalent basis reporting for revenues and income taxes.
(3) See the Financial Reporting Method section on pages 6 to 12 for additional information on non-GAAP financial measures. During the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded several items related to the acquisition of CWB, including acquisition and integration charges of \$68 million net of income taxes (\$170 million net of income taxes for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025) and the income tax recovery of \$47 million related to a change in tax treatment. In addition, during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded the amortization of the subscription receipt issuance costs of \$20 million net of income taxes, a gain of \$4 million resulting from the remeasurement at fair value of the CWB common shares already held by the Bank, and the impact of managing fair value changes, representing a loss of \$17 million net of income taxes. During the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, the Bank had recorded the amortization of the subscription receipt issuance costs of \$3 million net of income taxes, a gain of \$86 million net of income taxes resulting from the remeasurement at fair value of the CWB common shares already held by the Bank, the impact of managing fair value changes, representing a loss of \$5 million net of income taxes, as well as acquisition and integration charges of \$5 million net of income taxes.
(4) Represents an average of the daily balances for the period.
For the Other heading of segment results, a net loss of \$61 million was posted in the third quarter of 2025 compared to a net loss of \$26 million in the corresponding quarter in 2024. The change in net loss was due to the increase in non-interest expenses, stemming mainly from CWB acquisition and integration charges, as well as a \$120 million gain recorded in the third quarter of 2024 as a result of the remeasurement at fair value of the CWB common shares already held by the Bank. These items were partly offset by a higher contribution from Treasury activities, the inclusion of CWB revenues and an income tax recovery of \$47 million recorded in the third quarter of 2025 following a change in tax treatment. The specified items related to the acquisition of CWB had a \$21 million unfavourable impact on the net loss for the third quarter of 2025 compared to a \$73 million favourable impact in the third quarter of 2024. The adjusted net loss stood at \$40 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2025, compared to \$99 million for the corresponding quarter in 2024.
For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the segment's net loss stood at \$334 million compared to a net loss of \$192 million in the corresponding period of 2024. The change in net loss was mainly due to the specified items related to the CWB acquisition that were recorded and had a \$157 million unfavourable impact on the net loss for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 compared to a \$73 million favourable impact in the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024. These items were partly offset by a higher contribution from Treasury activities. The adjusted net loss stood at \$177 million for the ninemonth period ended July 31, 2025 compared to \$265 million for the corresponding period in 2024.

(1) On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB. CWB's results were consolidated from the closing date, which impacted the balances as at July 31, 2025. For additional information on the impact of the CWB acquisition, see the Acquisition section and Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
As at July 31, 2025, the Bank had total assets of \$552.6 billion, up \$90.4 billion or 20% from \$462.2 billion as at October 31, 2024, partly explained by the CWB acquisition. Cash and deposits with financial institutions as at July 31, 2025, stood at \$29.6 billion, down \$1.9 billion, owing primarily to a decrease in deposits with the Bank of Canada, partly offset by an increase in deposits with regulated financial institutions.
Securities have risen \$33.7 billion since October 31, 2024, owing to a \$24.6 billion or 21% increase in securities at fair value through profit or loss driven mainly by equity securities. In addition, securities other than those measured at fair value through profit or loss rose \$9.2 billion. Securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowed increased by \$7.1 billion since October 31, 2024, driven primarily by the Financial Markets segment and Treasury activities.
As at July 31, 2025, loans, net of allowances for credit losses, totalled \$292.7 billion, up \$49.7 billion or 20% since October 31, 2024. The following table provides a breakdown of the main loan portfolios.

(1) On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB. CWB's results were consolidated from the closing date, which impacted the balances as at July 31, 2025. For additional
information on the impact of the CWB acquisition, see the Acquisition section and Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
(2) Including customers' liability under acceptances as at July 31, 2024.
Residential mortgages (including home equity lines of credit) rose \$17.8 billion or 14% since October 31, 2024, due to the inclusion of CWB loans and sustained growth in the business activities of the Personal and Commercial segment. Since October 31, 2024, personal loans were up \$0.5 billion due to the inclusion of CWB loans and growth in the business activities of the Personal and Commercial segment. Credit card receivables were relatively stable. Business and government loans rose \$32.0 billion or 32% since October 31, 2024, mainly due to the inclusion of CWB loans and business growth in Commercial Banking. These increases were partly offset by a decline in the activities of the Financial Markets segment.
Loans, net of allowances for credit losses, grew \$53.2 billion or 22% since July 31, 2024. Residential mortgages (including home equity lines of credit) rose \$19.7 billion or 16% due to the inclusion of CWB, sustained demand for mortgage credit in the Personal and Commercial segment and business growth at the ABA Bank and Credigy subsidiaries. Since July 31, 2024, personal loans rose \$0.6 billion, mainly due to the inclusion of CWB and business growth in Personal Banking. Credit card receivables were up \$0.2 billion. Business and government loans grew \$33.5 billion or 34% since July 31, 2024, owing essentially to business growth in Commercial Banking, mainly due to the inclusion of CWB loans, in the Wealth Management segment, and at the ABA Bank subsidiary.
Impaired loans include all loans classified in Stage 3 of the expected credit loss model and POCI loans. As at July 31, 2025, gross impaired loans stood at \$3,290 million compared to \$2,043 million as at October 31, 2024. As for net impaired loans, they totalled \$2,588 million as at July 31, 2025, compared to \$1,629 million as at October 31, 2024. This increase was mainly due to an increase in net impaired loans in the loan portfolios of the Personal and Commercial Banking segment resulting from the inclusion of impaired loans from CWB and from the ABA Bank subsidiary, partly offset by the decrease in net impaired loans at the Credigy subsidiary (including POCI loans) due to the maturities of certain portfolios and to loan repayments.
As at July 31, 2025, other assets totalled \$28.0 billion, a \$1.8 billion increase since October 31, 2024 that resulted mainly from increases in goodwill and intangible assets resulting from the CWB acquisition.
As at July 31, 2025, the Bank had total liabilities of \$519.2 billion compared to \$436.7 billion as at October 31, 2024.
The Bank's total deposits stood at \$402.3 billion as at July 31, 2025, rising \$68.8 billion or 21% from \$333.5 billion as at October 31, 2024. As at July 31, 2025, personal deposits stood at \$121.9 billion, up \$26.7 billion since October 31, 2024. This increase was driven by the inclusion of CWB deposits and business growth in Personal Banking, in the Financial Markets and Wealth Management segments, and at the ABA Bank subsidiary.
Business and government deposits stood at \$274.5 billion as at July 31, 2025, rising \$41.8 billion since October 31, 2024. The increase is explained by the inclusion of CWB's deposits, business growth in Commercial Banking and in the Financial Markets segment, and Treasury funding activities, including a \$1.0 billion increase in deposits subject to bank capitalization (bail-in) conversion regulations. As at July 31, 2025, deposits from deposit-taking institutions stood at \$5.9 billion, an increase of \$0.3 billion since October 31, 2024 arising from Treasury funding activities.
As at July 31, 2025, other liabilities stood at \$113.5 billion, up \$11.6 billion since October 31, 2024, essentially due to a \$2.9 billion increase in obligations related to securities sold short, a \$7.8 billion increase in obligations related to securities sold under repurchase agreements and securities loaned and a \$1.1 billion increase in other liabilities.
Subordinated debt increased since October 31, 2024, as a result of the issuance on January 13, 2025, and June 26, 2025, of medium-term notes amounting to \$1.0 billion and \$750 million, respectively, and \$400 million in subordinated debentures related to the acquisition of CWB, taking into account the redemption on June 29, 2025, of subordinated debentures issued by CWB amounting to \$125 million.
As at July 31, 2025, equity attributable to the Bank's shareholders and holders of other equity instruments was \$33.4 billion, rising \$7.8 billion since October 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to the issuances of common shares related to the CWB acquisition for a total amount of \$6.3 billion, as well as to net income, net of dividends. Moreover, the issuance of Series 47 and 49 preferred shares was more than offset by the redemption for cancellation of Series 32 preferred shares.
On August 26, 2025, the Bank's Board of Directors approved a normal course issuer bid, beginning on or around September 25, 2025, to repurchase for cancellation up to 8,000,000 common shares (representing approximately 2.04% of its then outstanding common shares) over the 12-month period ending on or around September 24, 2026. Any repurchase through the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) will be done at market prices. The common shares may also be repurchased through other means authorized by the TSX and applicable regulations, including private agreements or share repurchase programs under issuer bid exemption orders issued by the securities regulators. A private purchase made under an exemption order issued by a securities regulator will be done at a discount to the prevailing market price. The amounts that are paid above the average book value of the common shares are charged to Retained earnings. This normal course issuer bid is subject to the approval of OSFI and the TSX.
The Bank's policies and procedures regarding related party transactions have not significantly changed since October 31, 2024. For additional information, see Note 30 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024.
In the normal course of business, the Bank is party to various financial arrangements that, under IFRS, are not required to be recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet or are recorded under amounts other than their notional or contractual values. These arrangements include, among others, transactions with structured entities, derivative financial instruments, the issuance of guarantees, credit instruments, and financial assets received as collateral. A complete analysis of these types of arrangements, including their nature, business purpose, and importance, is provided on pages 53 and 54 of the 2024 Annual Report.
For additional information on financial assets transferred but not derecognized, guarantees, commitments, and structured entities, see Notes 9, 28, and 29 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024.
In April 2025, the Bank was reassessed by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for additional income tax and interest of approximately \$125 million (including estimated provincial tax and interest) in respect of certain Canadian dividends received by the Bank during the 2020 taxation year.
In prior fiscal years, the Bank had been reassessed for additional income tax and interest of approximately \$1,075 million (including provincial tax and interest) in respect of certain Canadian dividends received by the Bank during the 2012-2019 taxation years.
In the reassessments, the CRA alleges that the dividends were received as part of a "dividend rental arrangement."
In October 2023, the Bank filed a notice of appeal with the Tax Court of Canada, and the matter is now in litigation. The CRA may issue reassessments to the Bank for taxation years subsequent to 2020 in regard to certain activities similar to those that were the subject of the above-mentioned reassessments. The Bank remains confident that its tax position was appropriate and intends to vigorously defend its position. As a result, no amount has been recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements as at July 31, 2025.
On June 20, 2024, Bill C-69 – An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on April 16, 2024 received royal assent. The bill included the Pillar 2 rules (global minimum tax) published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) that are applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023 (November 1, 2024, for the Bank). To date, the Pillar 2 rules have been included in a bill or enacted in certain jurisdictions where the Bank operates. For the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank estimates that the application of the Pillar 2 rules represents an increase in the effective tax rate of 1.5% and 1.8%, respectively. For the quarter ended July 31, 2025, the Bank continues to apply the exception to the recognition and disclosure of information about deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from the Pillar 2 rules in the jurisdictions where they have been included in a bill or enacted.
Capital management has a dual role of ensuring a competitive return to the Bank's shareholders while maintaining a solid capital foundation that covers the risks inherent to the Bank's business activities, supports its business segments, and protects its clients. The Bank's capital management policy defines the guiding principles as well as the roles and responsibilities of its internal capital adequacy assessment process. This process aims to determine the capital that the Bank needs to maintain to pursue its business activities and accommodate unexpected losses arising from extremely adverse economic and operational conditions. For additional information on the capital management framework, see the Capital Management section on pages 55 to 64 of the Bank's 2024 Annual Report.
The Bank and all other major Canadian banks have to maintain the following minimum capital ratios established by OSFI: a CET1 capital ratio of at least 11.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 13.0%, and a Total capital ratio of at least 15.0%. For additional information on the ratio calculations, see pages 56 to 58 of the 2024 Annual Report. All of these ratios include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% established by the BCBS and OSFI, a 1.0% surcharge applicable solely to Domestic Systemically Important Banks (D-SIBs), and a 3.5% domestic stability buffer (DSB) established by OSFI. The DSB, which can vary from 0% to 4.0% of risk-weighted assets (RWA), consists exclusively of CET1 capital. A D-SIB that fails to meet this buffer requirement will not be subject to automatic constraints to reduce capital distributions but will have to provide a remediation plan to OSFI. The Bank must also meet the requirements of the capital output floor that will ensure that its total calculated RWA is not below 72.5% of the total RWA as calculated under the Basel III Standardized Approaches. OSFI had planned a phase-in of the floor factor, starting at 65.0% in the second quarter of 2023, and rising to reach 72.5% in fiscal 2027. On February 12, 2025, OSFI deferred any additional increases until further notice. As a result, the floor factor, currently set at 67.5%, will remain at this level for an undetermined period. If the capital requirement is less than the capital output floor requirement after applying the floor factor, the difference is added to the total RWA. Lastly, OSFI requires D-SIBs to maintain a Basel III leverage ratio of at least 3.5%, which includes a Tier 1 capital buffer of 0.5% applicable only to D-SIBs. For additional information on the leverage ratio calculation, see page 58 of the 2024 Annual Report.
In addition, OSFI requires that regulatory capital instruments other than common equity must have a non-viability contingent capital (NVCC) clause to ensure that investors bear losses before taxpayers should the government determine that rescuing a non-viable financial institution is in the public interest. The Bank's regulatory capital instruments, other than common shares, all have an NVCC clause.
OSFI's Total Loss Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) Guideline, which applies to all D-SIBs under the federal government's bail-in regulations, is intended to ensure that a D-SIB has sufficient loss-absorbing capacity to support its internal recapitalization in the unlikely event it becomes non-viable. Available TLAC includes total capital as well as certain senior unsecured debts that satisfy all of the eligibility criteria of OSFI's TLAC guideline. OSFI requires D-SIBs to maintain a riskbased TLAC ratio of at least 25.0% (including the DSB) of RWA and a TLAC leverage ratio of at least 7.25%. The TLAC ratio is calculated by dividing available TLAC by RWA, and the TLAC leverage ratio is calculated by dividing available TLAC by total exposure. As at July 31, 2025, outstanding liabilities of \$24.5 billion (\$23.5 billion as at October 31, 2024) were subject to conversion under the bail-in regulations.

The Bank ensures that its capital levels are always above the minimum capital requirements set by OSFI, including the DSB. By maintaining a strong capital structure, the Bank can cover the risks inherent to its business activities, support its business segments, and protect its clients.
Other disclosure requirements pursuant to Pillar 3 of the Basel Accord and a set of recommendations defined by the Enhanced Disclosure Task Force (EDTF) are presented in the Supplementary Regulatory Capital and Pillar 3 Disclosure report published quarterly and available on the Bank's website at nbc.ca. Furthermore, a complete list of capital instruments and their main features is also available on the Bank's website.
The Bank closely monitors regulatory developments and participates actively in various consultative processes. For additional information about the regulatory context as at October 31, 2024, refer to page 59 of the Capital Management section in the 2024 Annual Report. In addition, since November 1, 2024, there have been no new regulatory developments to consider.
On January 13, 2025, the Bank issued medium-term notes for a total amount of \$1.0 billion bearing interest at 4.260% and maturing on February 15, 2035. Given that the medium-term notes satisfy the NVCC requirements, they qualify for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital under the Basel III rules.
On February 3, 2025, at closing of the CWB acquisition, the Bank issued a total of 50,272,878 common shares, for total proceeds of \$6.3 billion.
On February 3, 2025, as part of the acquisition of CWB, the Bank acquired the obligations related to the CWB subordinated debentures for a total amount of \$525 million, which included subordinated debentures of \$125 million bearing interest at 4.840% and maturing on June 29, 2030 (redeemed by the Bank on June 29, 2025), subordinated debentures of \$150 million bearing interest at 5.937% and maturing on December 22, 2032 and subordinated debentures of \$250 million bearing interest at 5.949% and maturing on January 29, 2034. Given that the debentures satisfy the NVCC requirements, they qualify for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital under the Basel III rules.
On February 17, 2025, i.e. the first business day after the February 15, 2025 redemption date, the Bank redeemed all the issued and outstanding Non-Cumulative 5-Year Rate-Reset Series 32 First Preferred Shares. Pursuant to the share conditions, the redemption price was \$25.00 per share plus the periodic dividends declared and unpaid. The Bank redeemed 12,000,000 Series 32 First Preferred Shares for a total amount of \$300 million.
On February 20, 2025, there was an exchange of all the issued and outstanding First Preferred Shares, Series 5 and Series 9 of CWB for substantially equivalent First Preferred Shares, Series 47 and Series 49 of National Bank, which are non-cumulative 5-year rate-reset bearing interest at 6.371% and 7.651%. The Bank exchanged 10,000,000 preferred shares for a total amount of \$264 million. Given that the Series 47 and Series 49 preferred shares meet the NVCC requirements, they qualify for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital under the Basel III rules.
On June 26, 2025, the Bank issued medium-term notes for a total amount of \$750 million bearing interest at 4.333% and maturing on August 15, 2035. Given that the medium-term notes satisfy the NVCC requirements, they qualify for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital under the Basel III rules.
On August 26, 2025, the Board of Directors declared regular dividends on the various series of first preferred shares and a dividend of \$1.18 per common share, payable on November 1, 2025 to shareholders of record on September 29, 2025.

(1) Limited Recourse Capital Notes (LRCN).
As at August 22, 2025, there were 392,069,258 common shares and 10,847,955 stock options outstanding. The number of common shares and options outstanding reflects the closing of the CWB transaction. NVCC provisions require the conversion of capital instruments into a variable number of common shares should OSFI deem a bank to be non-viable or should the government publicly announce that a bank has accepted or agreed to accept a capital injection. If an NVCC trigger event were to occur, all of the Bank's preferred shares, LRCNs, medium-term notes and subordinated debentures which are NVCC capital instruments, would be converted into common shares of the Bank according to an automatic conversion formula at a conversion price corresponding to the greater of the following amounts: (i) a \$5.00 contractual floor price; or (ii) the market price of the Bank's common shares on the date of the trigger event (10-day weighted average price). Based on a \$5.00 floor price and including an estimate for accrued dividends and interest, these NVCC capital instruments would be converted into a maximum of 1,665 million Bank common shares, which would have an 80.9% dilutive effect based on the number of Bank common shares outstanding as at July 31, 2025.

Risk-weighted assets (RWA) amounted to \$183.1 billion as at July 31, 2025 compared to \$141.0 billion as at October 31, 2024, a \$42.1 billion increase resulting mainly from the inclusion of CWB, organic growth in RWA and a deterioration in the credit quality of the loan portfolio. The changes in the Bank's RWA by risk type are presented in the following table.

(1) See the Financial Reporting Method section on pages 6 to 12 for additional information on capital management measures.
(2) Also includes foreign exchange rate movements that are not considered material.
(3) During the second quarter of 2025, the operational risk change is related to the inclusion of CWB which was calculated using the Standardized approach in accordance with the approach used by the Bank.
The table above provides risk-weighted asset movements by the key drivers underlying the different risk categories.
The Book size item reflects organic changes in book size and composition (including new loans and maturing loans). RWA movements attributable to book size include increases or decreases in exposures, measured by exposure at default, assuming a stable risk profile.
The Book quality item is the Bank's best estimate of changes in book quality related to experience, such as underlying customer behaviour or demographics, including changes resulting from model recalibrations or realignments and also including risk mitigation factors.
The Model updates item is used to reflect implementations of new models, changes in model scope, or any other change applied to address model malfunctions.
The Methodology and policyitem presents the impact of changes in calculation methods resulting from changes in regulatory policies or from new regulations.
As at July 31, 2025, the Bank's CET1, Tier 1, and Total capital ratios were, respectively, 13.9%, 15.6%, and 17.8% compared to ratios of, respectively, 13.7%, 15.9%, and 17.0% as at October 31, 2024. The CET1 and Total capital ratios increased since October 31, 2024, whereas the Tier 1 capital ratio decreased. The issuance of common shares related to the acquisition of CWB and the net income, net of dividends had a favourable impact on the ratios, partly offset by the growth in RWA, mainly due to the inclusion of CWB. The Total capital ratio also benefited from the net issuance of subordinated debts. In addition, the redemption of preferred shares on February 17, 2025, partly offset by the exchange of CWB's preferred shares for the Bank's preferred shares on February 20, 2025 negatively affected the Tier 1 ratio.
As at July 31, 2025, the leverage ratio was 4.7% compared to 4.4% as at October 31, 2024. The increase in the leverage ratio was primarily due to growth in Tier 1 capital related to the common shares issued as part of the acquisition of CWB, partly offset by an increase in total exposure.
As at July 31, 2025 the Bank's TLAC ratio and TLAC leverage ratio were 30.0% and 9.0%, respectively, compared to 31.2% and 8.6%, respectively, as at October 31, 2024. The TLAC leverage ratio increase is explained by the net issuances of instruments that met all of the TLAC eligibility criteria during the period. However, the growth in RWA, mainly attributable to the inclusion of CWB, more than offset these issuances, resulting in a decrease in the TLAC ratio.
During the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank was compliant with all of OSFI's regulatory capital, leverage, and TLAC requirements.

(1) Capital, risk-weighted assets, total exposure, the capital ratios, and the leverage ratio are calculated in accordance with the Basel III rules, as set out in OSFI's Capital Adequacy Requirements Guideline and Leverage Requirements Guideline.
(2) Available TLAC, the TLAC ratio, and the TLAC leverage ratio are calculated in accordance with OSFI's Total Loss Absorbing Capacity Guideline.
The BCBS developed an assessment methodology and additional loss absorbency requirements as well as indicators to be used by the BCBS and the Financial Stability Board to evaluate Global Systemically Important Banks (G-SIBs). The annual public disclosure requirements apply to large, globally active banks.
The most recent version of OSFI's advisory entitled Global Systemically Important Banks – Public Disclosure Requirements regarding implementation of public disclosure requirements for G-SIBs in Canada took effect in 2022. Canadian banks, including the Bank, that have not been designated as G-SIBs and that have total exposure (as calculated using the Basel III leverage ratio) greater than 200 billion euros at fiscal year-end must publish the indicators annually. The indicators are calculated and presented in accordance with specific BCBS guideline, which are updated annually. Consequently, the values obtained may not be comparable to the other measures presented in this report. The following table presents the indicators used in the BCBS's assessment methodology for evaluating G-SIBs.

Risk-taking is intrinsic to a financial institution's business. The Bank views risk as an integral part of its development and the diversification of its activities. It advocates a risk management approach that is consistent with its business strategy. The Bank voluntarily exposes itself to certain risk categories, particularly credit and market risk, in order to generate revenue. It also assumes certain risks that are inherent to its activities—to which it does not choose to expose itself—and that do not generate revenue, i.e., mainly operational risks.
| Risks | Description |
|---|---|
| Emerging risks – Increasing and uncertain trade tariffs and barriers |
Canadian consumer confidence has rebounded in recent months from previously low levels. Earlier declines in sentiment among consumers and businesses were largely attributed to initial policy actions by the U.S. administration, which included trade threats directed at Canadian exporters. However, the policy landscape has since shifted, with the administration's tariff strategy refocusing on other global trading partners. The anticipated adverse effects on Canadian businesses have been moderated by exemptions for goods that comply with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). As a result, key indicators of consumer and business confidence have shown signs of recovery. |
| Globally, trade tensions have persisted. The implementation of a comprehensive tariff package by the U.S. administration has raised average import duties to 18.6%, the highest level recorded since 1933. This period of elevated economic uncertainty, coupled with the unpredictability of U.S. trade policy, continues to contribute to volatility in financial markets and exerts pressure on the broader economic and investment outlook. These developments have implications for inflation dynamics, foreign exchange rates, recessionary risks, and the stability of global supply chains. |
|
| The potential impact on the Bank and its clients is contingent upon the nature and duration of these evolving conditions. Key factors include the longevity and escalation of tariff measures, the emergence of retaliatory actions, potential fiscal and monetary policy responses, and the reactions of global financial markets. |
|
| The Bank continues to monitor these developments closely, assessing both direct and indirect implications for its financial position and that of its clients. This analysis is conducted within a macroeconomic context characterized by elevated debt servicing costs, subdued consumer demand, and increased operating expenses—partly driven by ongoing supply chain reconfigurations. The Bank will continue to incorporate trade and tariff-related considerations into its ongoing evaluation of top and emerging risks. |
Despite the exercise of stringent risk management and existing mitigation measures, risk cannot be eliminated entirely, and residual risks may occasionally cause losses. Certain risks are discussed hereafter. For additional information, see the Risk Management section on pages 65 to 112 of the 2024 Annual Report.Risk management information is also provided in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which covers loans.
Credit risk is the risk of incurring a financial loss if an obligor does not fully honour its contractual commitments to the Bank. Obligors may be borrowers, issuers, guarantors or counterparties. General economic and market conditions in Canada, the U.S. and other countries in which the Bank operates are currently difficult to predict due in part to measures affecting trade relations between Canada and its partners. The imposition of tariffs and the measures taken in response, as well as the possible impacts on our customers, could have an impact on a debtor's ability to repay. Credit risk is the most significant risk facing the Bank in the normal course of its business.
The Bank closely monitors regulatory developments and is actively involved in the various consultation processes. For additional information about the regulatory context as at October 31, 2024, see page 81 of the Risk Management section of the 2024 Annual Report. In addition, since November 1, 2024, there have been no new regulatory developments to consider.
The amounts in the following tables represent the Bank's maximum exposure to credit risk as at the financial reporting date without considering any collateral held or any other credit enhancements. These amounts do not include allowances for credit losses nor amounts pledged as collateral. The tables also exclude equity securities.

Liquidity and funding risk is the risk that the Bank will be unable to honour daily cash and financial obligations without resorting to costly and untimely measures. Liquidity and funding risk arises when sources of funds become insufficient to meet scheduled payments under the Bank's commitments.
Liquidity risk refers to the possibility that an institution may not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due, due to a mismatch between cash inflows and outflows, without incurring unacceptable losses.
Funding risk is defined as the risk to the Bank's ongoing ability to raise sufficient funds to finance actual or proposed business activities on an unsecured or secured basis at an acceptable price. The funding management priority is to achieve an optimal balance between deposits, securitization, secured funding, and unsecured funding. This brings optimal stability to the funding and reduces vulnerability to unpredictable events.
The Bank continues to closely monitor regulatory developments and participates actively in various consultative processes. For additional information about the regulatory context as at October 31, 2024, refer to pages 95 and 96 of the Risk Management section in the 2024 Annual Report. Furthermore, since November 1, 2024, the new regulatory developments below are to be considered.
On November 21, 2024, OSFI published an amended version of the Liability Adequacy Requirement (LAR) Guideline. The LAR Guideline incorporates two sets of revisions related to intraday liquidity and the treatment of bankers' acceptances. The revisions relating to intraday liquidity affect Chapters 1 and 7 of the LAR Guideline, while those relating to the processing of bankers' acceptances affect Chapters 3 and 4. No changes were made to Chapters 2, 5 and 6. Implementation of the new intraday liquidity rules is scheduled for November 2025, and is limited to the direct clearers of Lynx, Canada's high-value payment system.
The Bank is actively participating in the OSFI consultation process launched on May 22, 2025, on the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP) discussion paper, which aims to refine OSFI's approach to Pillar 2 liquidity supervision to meet international best practices while reflecting the specific characteristics of the Canadian financial sector. The Bank is also engaged in OSFI's public consultation on proposed revisions to the LAR Guideline.
To protect depositors and creditors from unexpected crisis situations, the Bank holds a portfolio of unencumbered liquid assets that can be readily liquidated to meet financial obligations. The majority of the unencumbered liquid assets are held in Canadian or U.S. dollars. Moreover, all assets that can be quickly monetized are considered liquid assets. The Bank's liquidity reserves do not factor in the availability of the emergency liquidity facilities of central banks. The following tables provide information on the Bank's encumbered and unencumbered assets.

(2) In the normal course of its funding activities, the Bank pledges assets as collateral in accordance with standard terms. Encumbered assets include assets used to cover short sales, obligations related to securities sold under repurchase agreements and securities loaned, guarantees related to security-backed loans and borrowings, collateral related to derivative financial instrument transactions, asset-backed securities, residential mortgage loans securitized and transferred under the Canada Mortgage Bond program, assets held in consolidated trusts supporting the Bank's funding activities, and mortgage loans transferred under the covered bond program.
(3) Other encumbered assets include assets for which there are restrictions and that cannot therefore be used for collateral or funding purposes as well as assets used to cover short sales. (4) Other unencumbered assets are assets that cannot be used for collateral or funding purposes in their current form. This category includes assets that are potentially eligible as funding program collateral (e.g., mortgages insured by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation that can be securitized into mortgage-backed securities under the National Housing Act (Canada)).
The liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) was introduced primarily to ensure that banks could withstand periods of severe short-term stress. LCR is calculated by dividing the total amount of high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) by the total amount of net cash outflows. OSFI has been requiring Canadian banks to maintain a minimum LCR of 100%. An LCR above 100% ensures that banks are holding sufficient high-quality liquid assets to cover net cash outflows given a severe, 30-day liquidity crisis. The assumptions underlying the LCR scenario are established by the BCBS and OSFI's Liquidity Adequacy Requirements Guideline.
The table on the following page provides average LCR data calculated using the daily figures in the quarter. For the quarter ended July 31, 2025, the Bank's average LCR was 161%, well above the 100% regulatory requirement and demonstrating the Bank's solid short-term liquidity position.

(1) See the Financial Reporting Method section on pages 6 to 12 for additional information on capital management measures.
(2) OSFI prescribed a table format in order to standardize disclosure throughout the banking industry.
(3) Unweighted values are calculated as outstanding balances maturing or callable within 30 days (for cash inflows and outflows).
(4) Weighted values are calculated after the application of respective haircuts (for HQLA) or inflow and outflow rates.
(5) Total adjusted values are calculated after the application of both haircuts and inflow and outflow rates and any applicable caps.
(6) The data in this table is calculated using averages of the daily figures in the quarter.
As at July 31, 2025, Level 1 liquid assets represented 85% of the Bank's HQLA, which includes cash, central bank deposits, and bonds issued or guaranteed by the Canadian government and Canadian provincial governments.
Cash outflows arise from the application of OSFI-prescribed assumptions on deposits, debt, secured funding, commitments and additional collateral requirements. The cash outflows are partly offset by cash inflows, which come mainly from secured loans and performing loans. The Bank expects some quarter-over-quarter variation between reported LCRs without such variation being necessarily indicative of a trend. The variation between the quarter ended July 31, 2025 and the preceding quarter was a result of normal business operations. The Bank's liquid asset buffer is well in excess of its total net cash outflows.
The LCR assumptions differ from the assumptions used for the liquidity disclosures presented in the tables on the previous pages or those used for internal liquidity management rules. While the liquidity disclosure framework is prescribed by the EDTF, the Bank's internal liquidity metrics use assumptions that are calibrated according to its business model and experience.
The BCBS has developed the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) to promote a more resilient banking sector. The NSFR requires institutions to maintain a stable funding profile in relation to the composition of their assets and off-balance-sheet activities. A viable funding structure is intended to reduce the likelihood that disruptions to an institution's regular sources of funding would erode its liquidity position in a way that would increase the risk of its failure and potentially lead to broader systemic stress. The NSFR is calculated by dividing available stable funding by required stable funding. OSFI has been requiring Canadian banks to maintain a minimum NSFR of 100%.
The following table provides the available stable funding and required stable funding in accordance with OSFI's Liquidity Adequacy Requirements Guideline. As at July 31, 2025, the Bank's NSFR was 123%, well above the 100% regulatory requirement and demonstrating the Bank's solid long-term liquidity position.

(1) See the Financial Reporting Method section on pages 6 to 12 for additional information on capital management measures.
(2) OSFI prescribed a table format in order to standardize disclosure throughout the banking industry.
(3) Weighted values are calculated after application of the weightings set out in OSFI's Liquidity Adequacy Requirements Guideline.
(4) As per OSFI's specifications, liabilities arising from transactions involving the Canada Mortgage Bond program and their corresponding encumbered mortgages are given ASF and RSF
weights of 0%, respectively.
(5) As per OSFI's specifications, there is no need to differentiate by maturities.
The NSFR represents the amount of ASF relative to the amount of RSF. ASF is defined as the portion of capital and liabilities expected to be reliable over the time horizon considered by the NSFR, which extends to one year. The amount of RSF of a specific institution is a function of the liquidity characteristics and residual maturities of the various assets held by that institution as well as those of its off-balance-sheet exposures. The ASF and RSF amounts are calibrated to reflect the degree of stability of liabilities and liquidity of assets. The Bank expects some quarter-over-quarter variation between reported NSFRs without such variation being necessarily indicative of a long-term trend.
The NSFR assumptions differ from the assumptions used for the liquidity disclosures provided in the tables on the preceding pages or those used for internal liquidity management rules. While the liquidity disclosure framework is prescribed by the EDTF, the Bank's internal liquidity metrics use assumptions that are calibrated according to its business model and experience.
The Bank continuously monitors and analyzes market trends as well as possibilities for accessing less expensive and more flexible funding, considering both the risks and opportunities observed. The deposit strategy remains a priority for the Bank, which continues to prefer deposits to institutional funding.
The table below presents the residual contractual maturities of the Bank's wholesale funding. The information has been presented in accordance with the categories recommended by the EDTF working group for comparison purposes with other banks.

As part of a comprehensive liquidity management framework, the Bank regularly reviews its contracts that stipulate that additional collateral could be required in the event of a downgrade of the Bank's credit rating. The Bank's liquidity position management approach already incorporates additional collateral requirements in the event of a one-notch to three-notch downgrade in credit rating. The table below presents the additional collateral requirements in the event of a one-, two-, or three-notch credit rating downgrade.

The following tables present balance sheet items and off-balance-sheet commitments by residual contractual maturity as at July 31, 2025 with comparative figures as at October 31, 2024. The information gathered from this maturity analysis is a component of liquidity and funding management. However, this maturity profile does not represent how the Bank manages its interest rate risk or its liquidity risk and funding needs. The Bank considers factors other than contractual maturity when assessing liquid assets or determining expected future cash flows.
In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into various off-balance-sheet commitments. The credit instruments used to meet the financing needs of its clients represent the maximum amount of additional credit the Bank could be obligated to extend if the commitments were fully drawn.
The Bank also has future minimum commitments under leases for premises as well as under other contracts, mainly commitments to purchase loans and contracts for outsourced information technology services. Most of the lease commitments are related to operating leases.

Environmental and social risk is the possibility that environmental and social matters would result in a financial loss for the Bank or affect its business activities. For additional information on the ways the Bank addresses and mitigates this risk, see the Environmental and Social Risk section on pages 110 to 112 of the Bank's 2024 Annual Report.
The Bank continues to closely monitor regulatory developments and participates actively in various consultative processes. Since November 1, 2024, the new regulatory developments below are to be considered.
On December 18, 2024, the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board (CSSB) published its first Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards (CSDS). CSDS 1 – General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information, and CSDS 2 – Climate-related Disclosures, which are aligned with IFRS S1 – General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related financial Information and IFRS S2 – Climate-related Disclosures, retain the proposals included in the exposure drafts published on March 13, 2024, and include additional transition relief measures for certain disclosure requirements. CSDS will be applicable to D-SIBs at the end of fiscal 2026, and transitional relief measures will postpone certain disclosure requirements until the end of fiscal 2029. Disclosure under CSDS will be voluntary until mandated by the CSA. On April 23, 2025, the CSA announced that it was pausing its work on projects related to mandatory climate-related disclosure and amendments to existing diversity disclosure requirements. The CSA will monitor regulatory developments and revisit these two projects in the coming years.
On March 7, 2025, OSFI released an update to Guideline B-15, Climate Risk Management. Key changes include the deferral of the Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disclosure requirement and clarification of expectations regarding asset management activities.
One of the purposes of the 2024 Annual Report, the Report to Shareholders – Third Quarter 2025, and the related supplementary information documents is to provide transparent, high-quality risk disclosures in accordance with the recommendations made by the Financial Stability Board's EDTF group. The following table lists the references where users can find information that responds to the EDTF's 32 recommendations.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and use the same accounting policies as those described in Note 1 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024, except for the addition of finance lease accounting described below as a result of the acquisition of the Canadian Western Bank (CWB). The financial results of CWB have been consolidated in the Bank's financial statements as of February 3, 2025 and results have been recorded in Personal and Commercial, Wealth Management, and Financial Markets segments and in the Otherheading of segment disclosures.
When the Bank is the lessor, the contracts are classified as finance leases if they transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee, otherwise they are classified as operating leases. For finance leases, a receivable is recorded in Loans on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for an amount equal to the net investment in the finance lease, which represents the minimum payments receivable from the lessee plus any unguaranteed residual value expected to be recovered at the end of the lease, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. Finance lease receivables are subsequently recorded at an amount equal to the net investment in the finance lease, net of allowances for expected credit losses. Interest income is recognized over the term of the lease in Interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Income. For operating leases, the leased assets remain on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and are reported in Premises and equipment, and the rental income is recognized in Non-interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
In preparing consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, management must exercise judgment and make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting date carrying values of assets and liabilities, net income, and related information. Some accounting policies are considered critical given their importance to the presentation of the Bank's financial position and operating results and require subjective and complex judgments and estimates on matters that are inherently uncertain. Any change in these judgments and estimates could have a significant impact on the Bank's consolidated financial statements. The material accounting policies and accounting estimates are the same as those described on pages 113 to 118 of the 2024 Annual Report, except for the addition mentioned above.
The geopolitical landscape, notably the measures affecting trade relations between Canada and its partners, including the imposition of tariffs and any measures taken in response to such tariffs, the Russia-Ukraine war and clashes between Israel and Hamas, inflation, climate change, and previously high interest rates continue to create uncertainty. As a result, establishing reliable estimates and applying judgment continue to be substantially complex. See Note 1 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024 for a summary of the most significant estimation processes used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements and for the valuation techniques used to determine the carrying values and fair values of assets and liabilities. In addition, valuation techniques used for assets and liabilities resulting from the CWB acquisition are described below. The uncertainty surrounding certain key inputs used in measuring ECLs is described in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Bank used significant judgment and assumptions to determine the fair value of the CWB assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the loan portfolio, core-deposit and customer relationship intangible assets and deposits.
For loans, fair value was determined by discounting the estimated cash flows expected to be received on all purchased loans back to their present value. Management's best estimate of current key assumptions such as default rates, loss severity, timing of prepayment options and collateral was used to estimate expected cash flows. In determining the discount rate, various inputs were considered, including the risk-free interest rates in the current market, the risk premium associated with the loans and the cost to service the portfolios.
For core-deposit intangible assets, fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow approach, comparing the present value of the cost to maintain the acquired core deposits to the cost of alternative funding. The present value of the cost to maintain the acquired core deposits includes an estimate of future interest costs and operating expenses for these acquired deposits. Core deposits are those that are considered to be stable, below-market sources of funding, whereas the present value of the cost of alternative funding includes an estimate of future interest costs that would be incurred if the funds were borrowed from the public market. Deposit run-off was estimated using historical attrition data, comparing this to market sources at the date of acquisition.
The fair value of customer relationships acquired was determined based on the excess of estimated future cash inflows based on revenue from the acquired relationships over the related estimated cash outflows over the estimated useful life of the customer base.
For the deposits, fair value was determined by discounting the estimated cash flows to be repaid, back to their present value. The timing and amount of cash flows involve significant management judgment regarding the likelihood of early redemption and the timing of withdrawal by the customer. Discount rates were based on the prevailing rates that were paid on similar deposits at the date of acquisition.
The fair value of all other assets and liabilities was calculated using market data where possible, as well as management judgment to determine the price that would be obtained in an arms-length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties.
For additional information, see Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Bank closely monitors both new accounting standards and amendments to existing accounting standards issued by the IASB. There have been no significant updates to the future accounting policy changes disclosed in Note 3 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. The Bank is currently assessing the impact of applying these standards on the consolidated financial statements.
During the third quarter of 2025, no changes were made to the policies, procedures, and other processes that comprise the Bank's internal control over financial reporting that had or could reasonably have a significant impact on the internal control over financial reporting.
Following the acquisition of CWB on February 3, 2025, the Bank implemented and amended certain processes related to internal control over financial reporting. These amendments did not have a material impact on internal control over financial reporting.

Assets in respect of which a financial institution provides administrative services on behalf of the clients who own the assets. Such services include custodial services, collection of investment income, settlement of purchase and sale transactions, and record-keeping. Assets under administration are not reported on the balance sheet of the institution offering such services.
Assets managed by a financial institution and that are beneficially owned by clients. Management services are more comprehensive than administrative services and include selecting investments or offering investment advice. Assets under management, which may also be administered by the financial institution, are not reported on the balance sheet of the institution offering such services.

Average interest-bearing assets include interest-bearing deposits with financial institutions and certain cash items, securities, securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowed, and loans, while excluding customers' liability under acceptances and other assets. The average is calculated based on the daily balances for the period.
Average interest-bearing assets, non-trading, include interest-bearing deposits with financial institutions and certain cash items, securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowed, and loans, while excluding other assets and assets related to trading activities. The average is calculated based on the daily balances for the period.

Derivative financial instruments are financial contracts whose value is derived from an underlying interest rate, exchange rate, equity price, commodity price, credit instrument or index. Examples of derivatives include swaps, options, forward rate agreements, and futures. The notional amount of the derivative is the contract amount used as a reference point to calculate the payments to be exchanged between the two parties, and the notional amount itself is generally not exchanged by the parties.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding after taking into account the dilution effect of stock options using the treasury stock method and any gain (loss) on the redemption of preferred shares.
The dividend payout ratio represents the dividends of common shares (per share amount) expressed as a percentage of basic earnings per share.
Economic capital is the internal measure used by the Bank to determine the capital required for its solvency and to pursue its business operations. Economic capital takes into consideration the credit, market, operational, business and other risks to which the Bank is exposed as well as the risk diversification effect among them and among the business segments. Economic capital thus helps the Bank to determine the capital required to protect itself against such risks and ensure its long-term viability.
The efficiency ratio represents non-interest expenses expressed as a percentage of total revenues. It measures the efficiency of the Bank's operations.
The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e., an exit price).

The purpose of a hedging transaction is to modify the Bank's exposure to one or more risks by creating an offset between changes in the fair value of, or the cash flows attributable to, the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
The Bank considers a financial asset, other than a credit card receivable, to be credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred or when contractual payments are 90 days past due. Credit card receivables are considered credit-impaired and are fully written off at the earlier of the following dates: when a notice of bankruptcy is received, a settlement proposal is made, or contractual payments are 180 days past due.
The leverage ratio is calculated by dividing Tier 1 capital by total exposure. Total exposure is defined as the sum of on-balance-sheet assets (including derivative financial instrument exposures and securities financing transaction exposures) and off-balance-sheet items.

Return on average assets represents net income expressed as a percentage of average assets. This ratio is used to measure the Bank's efficiency in using all its assets to generate profits.
ROE represents net income attributable to common shareholders expressed as a percentage of average equity attributable to common shareholders. It is a general measure of the Bank's efficiency in using equity.
Assets are risk weighted according to the guidelines established by OSFI. In the Standardized calculation approach, risk factors are applied directly to the face value of certain assets in order to reflect comparable risk levels. In the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based (AIRB) Approach, riskweighted assets are derived from the Bank's internal models, which represent the Bank's own assessment of the risks it incurs. In the Foundation Internal Ratings-Based (FIRB) Approach, the Bank can use its own estimate of probability of default but must rely on OSFI estimates for the loss given default and exposure at default risk parameters. Offbalance-sheet instruments are converted to balance sheet (or credit) equivalents by adjusting the notional values before applying the appropriate risk-weighting factors.
Securities purchased by the Bank from a client pursuant to an agreement under which the securities will be resold to the same client on a specified date and at a specified price. Such an agreement is a form of short-term collateralized lending.
Financial obligations related to securities sold pursuant to an agreement under which the securities will be repurchased on a specified date and at a specified price. Such an agreement is a form of short-term funding.

Taxable equivalent basis is a calculation method that consists of grossing up certain revenues taxed at lower rates (notably dividends) by the income tax to a level that would make it comparable to revenues from taxable sources in Canada, and an equivalent amount is recognized in the income taxes.
Tier 1 capital ratio consists of Common Equity Tier 1 capital and Additional Tier 1 instruments, namely, qualifying non-cumulative preferred shares and the eligible amount of innovative instruments. The Tier 1 capital ratio is calculated by dividing Tier 1 capital, less regulatory adjustments, by the corresponding risk-weighted assets.
The TLAC leverage ratio is an independent risk measure that is calculated by dividing available TLAC by total exposure, as set out in OSFI's Total Loss Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) Guideline.
The TLAC ratio is a measure used to assess whether a non-viable Domestic Systemically Important Bank (D-SIB) has sufficient loss-absorbing capacity to support its recapitalization. It is calculated by dividing available TLAC by risk weighted assets, as set out in OSFI's Total Loss Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) Guideline.
Total capital is the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital. Tier 2 capital consists of the eligible portion of subordinated debt and certain allowances for credit losses. The Total capital ratio is calculated by dividing Total capital, less regulatory adjustments, by the corresponding risk-weighted assets.
TSR represents the average total return on an investment in the Bank's common shares. The return includes changes in share price and assumes that the dividends received were reinvested in additional common shares of the Bank.
Trading activity revenues consist of the net interest income and the noninterest income related to trading activities. Net interest income comprises dividends related to financial assets and liabilities associated with trading activities, and some interest income related to the financing of these financial assets and liabilities net of interest expenses and interest income related to the financing of these financial assets and liabilities. Non-interest income consists of realized and unrealized gains and losses as well as interest income on securities measured at fair value through profit or loss, income from held-for-trading derivative financial instruments, changes in the fair value of loans at fair value through profit or loss, changes in the fair value of financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss, realized and unrealized gains and losses as well as interest expense on obligations related to securities sold short, certain commission income, other trading activity revenues, and any applicable transaction costs.

On August 26, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized the publication of the Bank's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (the Consolidated Financial Statements) for the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025.
The Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), using the same accounting policies as those described in Note 1 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024 except for the addition of the accounting policy for finance leases, described below, resulting from the acquisition of Canadian Western Bank (CWB). As the Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. The financial results of CWB have been consolidated in the Bank's financial statements as of February 3, 2025 and have been recorded in the Personal and Commercial, Wealth Management and Financial Markets segments and in the Otherheading of segment disclosures.
When the Bank is the lessor, the contracts are classified as finance leases if they transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee, otherwise they are classified as operating leases. For finance leases, a receivable is recorded in Loans on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for an amount equal to the net investment in the finance lease, which represents the minimum payments receivable from the lessee plus any unguaranteed residual value expected to be recovered at the end of the lease, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. Finance lease receivables are subsequently recorded at an amount equal to the net investment in the finance lease, net of allowances for expected credit losses. Interest income is recognized over the term of the lease in Interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Income. For operating leases, the leased assets remain on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and are reported in Premises and equipment, and the rental income is recognized in Non-interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
In preparing consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the IASB, management must exercise judgment and make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting date carrying values of assets and liabilities, net income, and related information. Some of the Bank's accounting policies, such as measurement of expected credit losses (ECLs), require particularly complex judgments and estimates. See Note 1 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024 for a summary of the most significant estimation processes used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements and for the valuation techniques used to determine the carrying values and fair values of assets and liabilities. In addition, valuation techniques used for assets and liabilities resulting from the CWB acquisition are described below.
The geopolitical landscape, notably the measures affecting trade relations between Canada and its partners, including the imposition of tariffs and any measures taken in response to such tariffs, the Russia-Ukraine war and clashes between Israel and Hamas, inflation, climate change, and previously high interest rates continue to create uncertainty. As a result, establishing reliable estimates and applying judgment continue to be substantially complex. The uncertainty surrounding certain key inputs used in measuring ECLs is described in Note 6 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Bank used significant judgment and assumptions to determine the fair value of the CWB assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the loan portfolio, core-deposit and customer relationship intangible assets and deposits.
For loans, fair value was determined by discounting the estimated cash flows expected to be received on all purchased loans back to their present value. Management's best estimate of current key assumptions such as default rates, loss severity, timing of prepayment options and collateral was used to estimate expected cash flows. In determining the discount rate, various inputs were considered, including the risk-free interest rates in the current market, the risk premium associated with the loans and the cost to service the portfolios.
For core-deposit intangible assets, fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow approach, comparing the present value of the cost to maintain the acquired core deposits to the cost of alternative funding. The present value of the cost to maintain the acquired core deposits includes an estimate of future interest costs and operating expenses for these acquired deposits. Core deposits are those that are considered to be stable, below-market sources of funding, whereas the present value of the cost of alternative funding includes an estimate of future interest costs that would be incurred if the funds were borrowed from the public market. Deposit run-off was estimated using historical attrition data, comparing this to market sources at the date of acquisition.
The fair value of customer relationships acquired was determined based on the excess of estimated future cash inflows based on revenue from the acquired relationships over the related estimated cash outflows over the estimated useful life of the customer base.
For the deposits, fair value was determined by discounting the estimated cash flows to be repaid, back to their present value. The timing and amount of cash flows involve significant management judgment regarding the likelihood of early redemption and the timing of withdrawal by the customer. Discount rates were based on the prevailing rates that were paid on similar deposits at the date of acquisition.
The fair value of all other assets and liabilities was calculated using market data where possible, as well as management judgment to determine the price that would be obtained in an arms-length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties.
For additional information, see Note 19 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, which is the Bank's functional and presentation currency.
The Bank closely monitors both new accounting standards and amendments to existing accounting standards issued by the IASB. There have been no significant updates to the future accounting policy changes disclosed in Note 3 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. The Bank is currently assessing the impact of applying these standards on the consolidated financial statements.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value or at amortized cost in accordance with the categories set out in the accounting framework for financial instruments.

The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell a financial asset or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction in the principal market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e., an exit price).
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets provide the best evidence of fair value. When there is no quoted price in an active market, the Bank applies other valuation techniques that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and that minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Such valuation techniques include the following: using information available from recent market transactions, referring to the current fair value of a comparable financial instrument, applying discounted cash flow analysis, applying option pricing models, or relying on any other valuation technique that is commonly used by market participants and has proven to yield reliable estimates. Judgment is required when applying many of the valuation techniques. The Bank's valuations were based on its assessment of the conditions prevailing as at July 31, 2025 and may change in the future. Furthermore, there may be measurement uncertainty resulting from the choice of valuation model used.
Fair value is established in accordance with a rigorous control framework. The Bank has policies and procedures that govern the process for determining fair value. The Bank's valuation governance structure has remained largely unchanged from that described in Note 4 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. The valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are also described in this note, and no significant changes have been made to the valuation techniques.
IFRS establish a fair value measurement hierarchy that classifies the inputs used in financial instrument fair value measurement techniques according to three levels. This fair value hierarchy requires observable market inputs in an active market to be used whenever such inputs exist. According to the hierarchy, the highest level of inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments and the lowest level of inputs are unobservable inputs. In some cases, the inputs used to measure the fair value of a financial instrument might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those cases, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. For additional information, see Note 4 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024.
Transfers of financial instruments between Levels 1 and 2 and transfers to (or from) Level 3 are deemed to have taken place at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred. Significant transfers can occur between the fair value hierarchy levels due to new information on inputs used to determine fair value and the observable nature of those inputs.
During the quarter ended July 31, 2025, \$4 million in securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 as a result of changing market conditions (\$2 million in securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss during the quarter ended July 31, 2024). Also, during the quarter ended July 31, 2025, \$30 million in securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss and \$2 million in obligations related to securities sold short were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 as a result of changing market conditions (\$11 million in securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss during the quarter ended July 31, 2024). During the nine-month periods ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, financial instruments were transferred to (or from) Level 3 due to changes in the availability of observable market inputs as a result of changing market conditions.
The following tables show financial instruments recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet according to the fair value hierarchy.

The Bank classifies financial instruments in Level 3 when the valuation technique is based on at least one significant input that is not observable in the markets. The Bank maximizes the use of observable inputs to determine the fair value of financial instruments.
For a description of the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of financial instruments classified in Level 3, see Note 4 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. For the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, no significant change was made to the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in determining fair value.
The Bank performs sensitivity analyses for the fair value measurements of Level 3 financial instruments, substituting unobservable inputs with one or more reasonably possible alternative assumptions. For additional information on how a change in an unobservable input might affect the fair value measurements of Level 3 financial instruments, see Note 4 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, there were no significant changes in the sensitivity analyses of Level 3 financial instruments.
The Bank may hedge the fair value of financial instruments classified in the various levels through offsetting hedge positions. Gains and losses on financial instruments classified in Level 3 presented in the following tables do not reflect the inverse gains and losses on financial instruments used for economic hedging purposes that may have been classified in Level 1 or Level 2 by the Bank. In addition, the Bank may hedge the fair value of financial instruments classified in Level 3 using other financial instruments classified in Level 3. The effect of these hedges is not included in the net amount presented in the following tables. The gains and losses presented hereafter may comprise changes in fair value based on observable and unobservable inputs.

The Bank chose to designate certain financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss according to the criteria presented in Note 1 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024. Consistent with its risk management strategy and in accordance with the fair value option, which permits the designation if it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from measuring financial assets or financial liabilities or recognizing the gains and losses thereon on different bases, the Bank designated certain securities and certain liabilities related to transferred receivables at fair value through profit or loss. The fair value of liabilities related to transferred receivables does not include credit risk, as the holders of these liabilities are not exposed to the Bank's credit risk. The Bank also designated certain deposits that include embedded derivative financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss.
To determine a change in fair value arising from a change in the credit risk of deposits designated at fair value through profit or loss, the Bank calculates, at the beginning of the period, the present value of the instrument's contractual cash flows using the following rates: first, an observed discount rate for similar securities that reflects the Bank's credit spread and, then, a rate that excludes the Bank's credit spread. The difference obtained between the two values is then compared to the difference obtained using the same rates at the end of the period.
Information about the financial assets and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss is provided in the following tables.

(1) For the quarter ended July 31, 2025, the change in the fair value of deposits designated at fair value through profit or loss attributable to credit risk, and recorded in Other comprehensive income, resulted in a loss of \$286 million (\$87 million gain for the quarter ended July 31, 2024). For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, this change resulted in a loss of \$110 million (\$374 million loss for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024).
(2) The amount at maturity that the Bank will be contractually required to pay to the holders of these deposits varies and will differ from the reporting date fair value.
As at July 31, 2025 and as at October 31, 2024, securities at fair value through other comprehensive income and securities at amortized cost were mainly classified in Stage 1, with their credit quality falling mostly in the "Excellent" category according to the Bank's internal risk-rating categories. For additional information on the reconciliation of allowances for credit losses, see Note 6 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the nine-month periods ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank disposed of certain debt securities measured at amortized cost. The carrying value of these securities upon disposal was \$305 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 (\$180 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024), and the Bank recognized gains of \$2 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025 (\$1 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024) in Noninterest income – Gains (losses) on non-trading securities, netin the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Expected credit losses are determined using a three-stage impairment approach that is based on the change in the credit quality of financial assets since initial recognition.
Financial assets that have experienced no significant increase in credit risk between initial recognition and the reporting date, and for which 12-month expected credit losses are recorded at the reporting date, are classified in Stage 1.
Financial assets that have experienced a significant increase in credit risk between initial recognition and the reporting date, and for which lifetime expected credit losses are recorded at the reporting date, are classified in Stage 2.
Stage 3
Financial assets for which there is objective evidence of impairment, for which one or more events have had a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of these financial assets at the reporting date, and for which lifetime expected credit losses are recorded, are classified in Stage 3.
Financial assets that are credit-impaired when purchased or originated (POCI) are classified in the POCI category.
For additional information, see Notes 1 and 8 to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2024.
The following tables present the gross carrying amounts of loans as at July 31, 2025 and as at October 31, 2024, according to credit quality and ECL impairment stage of each loan category at amortized cost, and according to credit quality for loans at fair value through profit or loss.

(1) All macroeconomic factors are based on the Canadian economy unless otherwise indicated.
(2) Growth rate is annualized.
(3) Yield on corporate BBB bonds less yield on Canadian federal government bonds with 10-year maturity.
(4) Main stock index in Canada.
(5) The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) index is commonly used as a benchmark for the price of oil.
The main macroeconomic factors used for the personal credit portfolio are unemployment rate and growth in the housing price index, based on the economy of Canada or Quebec. The main macroeconomic factors used for the business and government credit portfolio are unemployment rate, spread on corporate BBB bonds, S&P/TSX growth, and WTI oil price. An increase in unemployment rate or BBB spread will generally lead to higher allowances for credit losses, whereas an increase in the other macroeconomic factors (GDP, S&P/TSX, housing price index, and WTI oil price) will generally lead to lower allowances for credit losses.
During the quarter ended July 31, 2025, macroeconomic factors evolved in various ways, with improvements in some areas and deterioration in others. Overall, the environment remains challenging, and uncertainty remains high.
The Canadian economy remains vulnerable due to the uncertainty surrounding tariffs. The unemployment rate is trending upward, and the economy is on track to have contracted in the second quarter. The weakness is not limited to the manufacturing sector, as the services sector is also experiencing a slowdown. These difficulties appear to be continuing into the third quarter, with hiring and investment intentions being low. Despite this, inflationary pressures remain, but they should ease as wage growth moderates. This should allow the Bank of Canada to provide further monetary easing to support real estate and households facing an interest payment shock. In the United States, the latest data has been rather disappointing. More specifically, consumption has been relatively weak since the beginning of the year. This slowdown may be due in part to a weakening labour market, but it also reflects the delayed impact of interest rate hikes, which should continue to take hold in the second half of the year. Despite the uncertain economic environment, risky financial assets have rallied following a volatile period at the beginning of the year. In the base scenario, Canada's unemployment rate stands at 7.2% after 12 months, an increase of 0.2 percentage point. In addition to the deterioration in the labour market, real estate prices are down, as economic uncertainty is dampening the enthusiasm of potential buyers. Consequently, housing prices fall 2.7% year over year. The S&P/TSX sits at 25,821 points after one year, and the price of oil is at US\$62.
In the upside scenario, trade tensions fade, and geopolitical conflicts are resolved, lifting confidence. Inflation continues to subside, as central bankers managed to curb it without causing significant damage to the economy. This enables them to make further cuts to interest rates. The Canadian and U.S. governments continue to expand spending. With the labour market holding up, consumer spending remains relatively resilient. House prices appreciate strongly against a backdrop of respectable economic growth and an improving labour market. After one year, the unemployment rate in this scenario is more favourable than in the base scenario (0.7 percentage point lower). Housing prices rise 9.7%, the S&P/TSX sits at 27,215 points after one year, and the price of oil is at US\$75.
In the downside scenario, widespread tariffs are imposed on Canada, but the country limits retaliation so as not to generate too much inflation. The central bank cuts interest rates sharply but falling demand and uncertainty translate into sharply reduced investment by businesses, which consequently reduce staffing levels. Given budgetary constraints, governments are unable to support households and businesses as they did during the pandemic. The geopolitical situation continues to cause concern, with the risk of conflicts escalating. After 12 months, economic contraction pushes unemployment to 10.0%. House prices fall sharply (-13.9%). The S&P/TSX sits at 19,875 points after one year, and the price of oil is at US\$32.
Given the uncertainty surrounding key inputs used to measure credit losses, the Bank has applied expert credit judgment to adjust the modelled expected credit loss results.
The following table shows a comparison of the Bank's allowances for credit losses on non-impaired loans (Stages 1 and 2) as at July 31, 2025 based on the probability weightings of three scenarios with allowances for credit losses resulting from simulations of each scenario weighted at 100%.

As part of the CWB acquisition, the Bank acquired finance leases for a fair value amount of \$3,625 million. As at July 31, 2025, the amount recognized as net investment in finance leases included in business and government loans was \$3,647 million and the related allowance for expected credit losses recorded was \$51 million.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of maturity analysis of undiscounted lease payments and net investment in finance leases.

In connection with the CWB transaction, the Bank had offered an aggregate of 9,262,500 subscription receipts at a price of \$112.30 per subscription receipt pursuant to a public offering (the Public Offering) and concurrent private placement (the Concurrent Private Placement) for a total amount of \$1.0 billion.
Pursuant to the Public Offering, on June 17, 2024, the Bank had issued and sold 4,453,000 subscription receipts at a price of \$112.30 for total gross proceeds of approximately \$500 million. The Public Offering had been underwritten on a bought-deal basis by a syndicate of underwriters (the Underwriters). On July 17, 2024, the Bank had issued and sold 178,250 additional subscription receipts pursuant to the partial exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option. Pursuant to the Concurrent Private Placement, on June 17, 2024, the Bank had issued and sold 4,453,000 subscription receipts at a price of \$112.30 to an affiliate of Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ) for total gross proceeds of approximately \$500 million. On July 17, 2024, the Bank had issued and sold 178,250 additional subscription receipts to an affiliate of CDPQ pursuant to CDPQ's option to purchase additional subscription receipts to maintain its pro-rata ownership.
Each subscription receipt entitled the holder thereof to receive automatically upon closing of the CWB transaction, without any action on the part of the holder and without payment of additional consideration, (i) one common share of National Bank, and (ii) a cash payment equal to the amount per common share of any cash dividends declared by the Bank and for which the record date fell within the period from June 17, 2024 up to (but excluding) the last day the subscription receipts were outstanding (less applicable withholding taxes, if any). Had the transaction failed, the subscription receipt holders would have had the right to the reimbursement of the full amount, including interest earned.
On February 3, 2025, the closing date of the transaction, the common shares of the Bank issuable pursuant to the subscription receipts were automatically issued through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. in accordance with the terms of the subscription receipts. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the subscription receipts, holders of subscription receipts were also entitled to receive a cash amount for each subscription receipt equivalent to the dividend per common share payable by National Bank to holders of common shares of record on June 24, 2024, September 30, 2024, and December 30, 2024, with payment occurring on August 1, 2024, November 1, 2024, and February 1, 2025, respectively. The number of common shares of National Bank issued pursuant to the automatic exchange of the subscription receipts was 9,262,500.
On June 26, 2025, the Bank issued medium-term notes for an amount of \$750 million bearing interest at 4.333% and maturing August 15, 2035. The interest on these notes will be payable semi-annually at the rate of 4.333% per annum until August 15, 2030 and, thereafter, will be payable quarterly at a floating rate equal to Daily Compounded CORRA (Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average) plus 1.61%. With the prior approval of the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (Canada) (OSFI), the Bank may, at its option, redeem these notes as of August 15, 2030, in whole or in part, at their nominal value plus accrued and unpaid interest.
On January 13, 2025, the Bank issued medium-term notes for an amount of \$1.0 billion bearing interest at 4.260% and maturing on February 15, 2035. The interest on these notes will be payable semi-annually at a rate of 4.260% per annum until February 15, 2030 and, thereafter, will be payable quarterly at a floating rate equal to Daily Compounded CORRA plus 1.56%. With the prior approval of OSFI, the Bank may, at its option, redeem these notes as of February 15, 2030, in whole or in part, at their nominal value plus accrued and unpaid interest.
As part of the CWB acquisition, the Bank acquired subordinated debentures in a total amount of \$525 million, detailed below. The acquisition-date fair value was \$554 million. For additional information, see Note 19 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Bank acquired subordinated debentures in an amount of \$125 million bearing interest at 4.840% and maturing on June 29, 2030. The interest on these debentures was payable semi-annually at a rate of 4.840% per annum until June 29, 2025, the date on which the Bank redeemed the subordinated debentures at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The Bank acquired subordinated debentures in an amount of \$150 million bearing interest at 5.937% and maturing on December 22, 2032. The interest on these debentures will be payable semi-annually at a rate of 5.937% per annum until December 22, 2027 and, thereafter, will be payable quarterly at a floating rate equal to Daily Compounded CORRA plus 2.91%. With the prior approval of OSFI, the Bank may, at its option, redeem these subordinated debentures as of December 22, 2027, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The Bank acquired subordinated debentures in an amount of \$250 million bearing interest at 5.949% and maturing on January 29, 2034. The interest on these debentures will be payable semi-annually at a rate of 5.949% per annum until January 29, 2029 and, thereafter, will be payable quarterly at a floating rate equal to Daily Compounded CORRA plus 2.73%. With the prior approval of OSFI, the Bank may, at its option, redeem these subordinated debentures as of January 29, 2029, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Given that the medium-term notes and subordinated debentures satisfy the non-viability contingent capital (NVCC) requirements, they qualify for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital under Basel III.

On February 17, 2025, the first business day after the February 15, 2025 set redemption date, the Bank redeemed all of the issued and outstanding Non-Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset Series 32 First Preferred Shares. Pursuant to the share conditions, the redemption price was \$25.00 per share plus the periodic dividends declared and unpaid. The Bank redeemed 12,000,000 Series 32 preferred shares for a total amount of \$300 million, which reduced Preferred share capital.
On December 12, 2023, the Bank had begun a normal course issuer bid to repurchase for cancellation up to 7,000,000 common shares (representing approximately 2.1% of its then outstanding common shares) over the 12-month period ended on December 11, 2024. On December 12, 2022, the Bank had begun a normal course issuer bid to repurchase for cancellation up to 7,000,000 common shares (representing approximately 2.1% of its then outstanding common shares) over the 12-month period ended December 11, 2023. Any repurchase through the Toronto Stock Exchange will be done at market prices. The common shares may also be repurchased through other means authorized by the Toronto Stock Exchange and applicable regulations, including private agreements or share repurchase programs under issuer bid exemption orders issued by the securities regulators. A private purchase made under an exemption order issued by a securities regulator will be done at a discount to the prevailing market price. The amounts that are paid above the average book value of the common shares are charged to Retained earnings. During the nine-month periods ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank did not repurchase any common shares.
The Bank and all other major Canadian banks have to maintain the following minimum capital ratios established by OSFI: a CET1 capital ratio of at least 11.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 13.0%, and a Total capital ratio of at least 15.0%. All of these ratios include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) and OSFI, a 1.0% surcharge applicable solely to Domestic Systemically Important Banks (D-SIBs), and a 3.5% domestic stability buffer (DSB) established by OSFI. The DSB, which can vary from 0% to 4.0% of risk-weighted assets (RWA), consists exclusively of CET1 capital. A D-SIB that fails to meet this buffer requirement will not be subject to automatic constraints to reduce capital distributions but must provide a remediation plan to OSFI. The Bank also has to meet the requirements of the capital output floor, under which its total RWA must not be lower than 72.5% of the total RWA as calculated under the Basel III Standardized Approaches. OSFI had planned a phase-in of the floor factor, starting at 65.0% in the second quarter of 2023, and rising to reach 72.5% in fiscal 2027. On February 12, 2025, OSFI deferred any additional increases until further notice. As a result, the floor factor, currently set at 67.5%, will remain at this level for an undetermined period. If the capital requirement is less than the capital output floor requirement after applying the floor factor, the difference is added to the total RWA. Lastly, OSFI requires D-SIBs to maintain a Basel III leverage ratio of at least 3.5%, which includes a Tier 1 capital buffer of 0.5% applicable only to D-SIBs.
OSFI also requires D-SIBs to maintain a risk-based total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) ratio of at least 25.0% (including the DSB) of RWA and a TLAC leverage ratio of at least 7.25%. The purpose of TLAC is to ensure that a D-SIB has sufficient loss-absorbing capacity to support its internal recapitalization in the unlikely event it becomes non-viable.
During the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank was compliant with all of OSFI's regulatory capital, leverage, and TLAC requirements.

During the quarters ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank did not award any stock options. During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank awarded 1,004,492 stock options (1,222,652 stock options during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024) with an average fair value of \$23.26 per option (\$13.74 in 2024).
In connection with the CWB acquisition, during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank exchanged outstanding options held by employees of CWB for 719,886 replacement options, with a weighted average fair value of \$53.32 granting holders the right to purchase common shares of the Bank on substantially similar terms and conditions as were applicable under the CWB Stock Option Plan prior to the exchange, including vesting schedule, term to expiry, termination of employment and change of control provisions. The replacement options vest at the end of a three-year period and expire seven years from the grant date attached to the CWB options prior to the exchange. The exercise price of the replacement options was adjusted to reflect the price difference between the CWB common shares and the Bank's common shares, and the number of replacement options exchanged for CWB options was adjusted, in conjunction with the exercise price, to maintain the same aggregate intrinsic value immediately following the exchange as immediately prior to the exchange. The adjustment of the exercise price and the number of replacement options issued was based on the acquisition's share exchange ratio of 0.450. See Note 19 for additional information on the CWB acquisition.
As at July 31, 2025, there were 11,077,103 stock options outstanding (10,443,059 stock options as at October 31, 2024).
The average fair value of the options awarded, excluding replacement options issued in connection with the CWB acquisition, was estimated on the award date using the Black-Scholes model as well as the following accounting assumptions.

During the quarter ended July 31, 2025, a \$7 million compensation expense was recorded for this plan (\$4 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2024). During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, an \$18 million compensation expense was recorded for this plan (\$13 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024).
In connection with the CWB acquisition, during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank exchanged outstanding RSUs and performance stock units (PSUs) held by employees of CWB for 501,764 replacement RSUs at a price of \$128.99, granting holders the right to a cash settlement based on the value of the Bank's common shares. The replacement RSUs retained the same terms as were applicable under the CWB RSU and PSU Plans, including vesting schedule, term to expiry, termination of employment and change of control provisions, with the exception of the performance condition previously attached to the CWB PSU Plan, which was removed immediately prior to the exchange. The replacement units issued in exchange for the CWB RSUs vest on each anniversary of the grant in equal instalments over a period of three years, and the replacement units issued in exchange for the CWB PSUs vest at the end of a three-year period. Upon the exchange, the value of the cash settlement was substituted by the value of the Bank's common shares. To reflect the difference in the value of the cash-settlement between the replacement units and the CWB units, the number of replacement units was adjusted to maintain the same aggregate cash-settlement value immediately following the exchange as immediately prior to the exchange. The number of replacement units was based on the acquisition's share exchange ratio of 0.450.
The Bank offers pension plans that have a defined benefit component and a defined contribution component. The Bank also offers other post-employment benefit plans to eligible retirees.

(1) Changes related to the discount rate and to the return on plan assets are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis. All other assumptions are updated annually.
(2) Excludes interest income.
In April 2025, the Bank was reassessed by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for additional income tax and interest of approximately \$125 million (including estimated provincial tax and interest) in respect of certain Canadian dividends received by the Bank during the 2020 taxation year.
In prior fiscal years, the Bank had been reassessed for additional income tax and interest of approximately \$1,075 million (including provincial tax and interest) in respect of certain Canadian dividends received by the Bank during the 2012-2019 taxation years.
In the reassessments, the CRA alleges that the dividends were received as part of a "dividend rental arrangement."
In October 2023, the Bank filed a notice of appeal with the Tax Court of Canada, and the matter is now in litigation. The CRA may issue reassessments to the Bank for taxation years subsequent to 2020 in regard to certain activities similar to those that were the subject of the above-mentioned reassessments. The Bank remains confident that its tax position was appropriate and intends to vigorously defend its position. As a result, no amount has been recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements as at July 31, 2025.
On June 20, 2024, Bill C-69 – An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on April 16, 2024 received royal assent. The bill included the Pillar 2 rules (global minimum tax) published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) that are applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023 (November 1, 2024, for the Bank). To date, the Pillar 2 rules have been included in a bill or enacted in certain jurisdictions where the Bank operates. For the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank estimates that the application of the Pillar 2 rules represents an increase in the effective tax rate of 1.5% and 1.8%, respectively. For the quarter ended July 31, 2025, the Bank continues to apply the exception to the recognition and disclosure of information about deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from the Pillar 2 rules in the jurisdictions where they have been included in a bill or enacted.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding after taking into account the dilution effect of stock options using the treasury stock method and any gain (loss) on the redemption of preferred shares.

(1) For the quarter ended July 31, 2025, as the exercise price of the options was lower than the average price of the Bank's common shares, no options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the calculation of diluted earnings per share excluded an average number of 860,324 options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of \$132.75 given that the exercise price of these options was greater than the average price of the Bank's common shares. For the quarter and nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, as the exercise price of the options was lower than the average price of the Bank's common shares, no options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.
The presentation of segment disclosures is consistent with the presentation adopted by the Bank for the fiscal year that began on November 1, 2024. It reflects the discontinuation of taxable equivalent basis reporting for income and income tax expense. Using the taxable equivalent basis method is less relevant since the introduction of the Pillar 2 rules (global minimum tax) during the first quarter of 2025 and Bill C-59 in relation to the taxation of certain Canadian dividends during fiscal 2024. This change has no impact on net income previously disclosed. Data for the 2024 periods were adjusted to reflect this change.

(1) Certain comparative amounts have been adjusted to reflect the discontinuation of taxable equivalent basis reporting for revenues and income taxes.
(2) During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded an amount of \$28 million (\$20 million net of income taxes) in the Other heading to reflect the amortization of the issuance costs of the subscription receipts issued as part of the agreement to acquire CWB (for additional information, see Notes 8 and 10). For the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, the Bank recorded an amount of \$5 million (\$3 million net of income taxes).
(3) During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded a gain of \$4 million upon the remeasurement at fair value of the interest already held in CWB as at January 31, 2025 (a gain of \$120 million (\$86 million net of income taxes) for the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024). Also, during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded a mark-to-market loss of \$23 million (\$17 million net of income taxes) on interest rate swaps used to manage the fair value changes of CWB's assets and liabilities that resulted in volatility of goodwill and capital on closing of the transaction (a loss of \$7 million (\$5 million net of income taxes) for the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024). All these items were recorded in the Otherheading.
(4) During the quarter ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded acquisition and integration charges of \$94 million (\$68 million net of income taxes) in the Other heading related to the CWB acquisition. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, these charges were \$238 million (\$173 million net of income taxes) and for the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2024, they were \$7 million (\$5 million net of income taxes).
(5) During the quarter ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded an expense of \$25 million (\$18 million net of income taxes), allocated between Personal and Commercial (\$23 million) and Wealth Management (\$2 million), to reflect the amortization of intangible assets related to the CWB acquisition. During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the expense is \$49 million (\$36 million net of income taxes), allocated between Personal and Commercial (\$46 million) and Wealth Management (\$3 million).
(6) During the quarter and the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded in the Other heading an income tax recovery of \$47 million due to a change in tax treatment related to unrealized gains recognized in fiscal 2024 and in the first quarter of 2025, from the remeasurement at fair value of the interest already held by the Bank in CWB.
(7) Represents the average of the daily balances for the period, which is also the basis on which segment assets are reported in the business segments.
(8) During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the Bank recorded an amount of \$230 million (\$166 million net of income taxes) in the Personal and Commercial segment to reflect the initial provisions for credit losses on non-impaired loans acquired from CWB.
On February 3, 2025, the Bank completed the acquisition of CWB, a diversified financial services institution based in Edmonton, Alberta, in which the Bank had already been holding a 5.9% equity interest. This transaction will enable the Bank to accelerate its growth across Canada. The business combination brings together two complementary Canadian banks with growing businesses, thereby enhancing customer service by offering a full range of products and services nationwide, with a regionally focused service model.
The total consideration transferred of \$6.8 billion included \$5.3 billion for 100% of the common shares of CWB acquired by way of a share exchange at an exchange ratio of 0.450 of a common share of the National Bank for each CWB common share, other than those held by the National Bank, \$1.4 billion for the settlement of pre-existing relationships and \$0.1 billion for the issuance of replacement share-based payment awards. The fair value of the Bank's common shares issued was determined on the basis of the share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) at closing on January 31, 2025 at a price of \$128.99 per share. At acquisition date, the Bank obtained a 100% interest in the CWB voting shares and the 5.9% previously held interest was remeasured to its fair value of \$0.3 billion. The non-controlling interest in CWB recognized at acquisition date was measured at a fair value of \$0.6 billion and represented CWB's preferred shares and Limited Recourse Capital Notes (LRCN) outstanding on that date. Total purchase consideration amounted to \$7.7 billion.
Based on the estimated fair values, the preliminary purchase price allocation assigns \$45.4 billion to assets, including goodwill, and \$37.7 billion to liabilities at acquisition date. The estimated goodwill of \$1.6 billion reflects the expected expense synergies from our Personal and Commercial and Wealth Management banking services operations, expected funding synergies, and the expected growth from the product and service platform at a national scale. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
The following table presents the estimated acquisition-date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and consideration transferred. During the measurement period, which can last up to 12 months from the acquisition date, the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may be retroactively adjusted to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as at the acquisition date.

Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) (millions of Canadian dollars)
During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the remeasurement at fair value of the previously held interest in CWB generated a gain of \$4 million which was reported in the Non-interest income – Other item of the Consolidated Statement of Income in the Other heading of segment disclosures. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025, the acquisition and integration costs of \$238 million are included in the Non-Interest expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income (\$94 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2025). The financial results of CWB have been consolidated in the Bank's financial statements as of February 3, 2025 and have been recorded in the Personal and Commercial, Wealth Management and Financial Markets segments and in the Other heading of segment disclosures. Since acquisition date, CWB contributed approximately \$582 million to the Bank's total revenues and a net loss of approximately \$79 million to the Bank's total net income. If the Bank had completed the acquisition on November 1, 2024, the Bank would have reported total revenues of approximately \$10,586 million and net income of approximately \$3,040 million for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2025.
On February 3, 2025, the Bank issued a total of 50,272,878 common shares, for an amount of \$6.3 billion, which increased Common share capital by \$6.3 billion. This issuance includes 41,010,378 common shares at a price of \$128.99 per share from the share exchange and 9,262,500 common shares at a price of \$112.30 per share from the automatic exchange of subscription receipts. For additional information on subscription receipts, see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
As of February 4, 2025, certain amendments previously approved by the holders of the outstanding first preferred shares and LRCN of CWB, which permitted the exchange of the first preferred shares of CWB for substantially equivalent first preferred shares of National Bank and the early redemption of the LRCN, were implemented.
On February 20, 2025, all the issued and outstanding Series 5 and Series 9 First Preferred Shares of CWB were exchanged for substantially equivalent Series 47 and Series 49 First Preferred Shares of National Bank, which are non-cumulative 5-year rate-reset bearing interest at 6.371% and 7.651%. The Bank exchanged 10,000,000 preferred shares for a total amount of \$268 million, which reduced the Non-controlling interest by \$268 million, increased Preferred Share capital by \$264 million and increased Retained earnings by \$4 million. Consent fees related to the exchange, amounting to \$2 million, net of income taxes, were recorded in Retained earnings. Given the Series 47 and Series 49 preferred shares satisfy the NVCC requirements, they qualify for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital under Basel III. Also, the Bank redeemed 175,000 LRCN – Series 1 and 150,000 LRCN – Series 2 of CWB for a total amount of \$335 million, including consent fees, which reduced the Non-controlling interest by \$325 million and decreased Retained earnings by \$7 million, net of income taxes.
On August 26, 2025, the Bank's Board of Directors approved a normal course issuer bid, beginning on or around September 25, 2025, to repurchase for cancellation up to 8,000,000 common shares (representing approximately 2.04% of its then outstanding common shares) over the 12-month period ending on or around September 24, 2026. Any repurchase through the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) will be done at market prices. The common shares may also be repurchased through other means authorized by the TSX and applicable regulations, including private agreements or share repurchase programs under issuer bid exemption orders issued by the securities regulators. A private purchase made under an exemption order issued by a securities regulator will be done at a discount to the prevailing market price. The amounts that are paid above the average book value of the common shares are charged to Retained earnings. This normal course issuer bid is subject to the approval of OSFI and the TSX.
