"These first quarter results demonstrate our success in executing on our client-focused strategy which is delivering results for our stakeholders," said Victor G. Dodig, CIBC President and Chief Executive Officer. "We have clear momentum in attracting and deepening client relationships, underpinned by continued expense discipline, a robust capital position, and strong credit quality, giving us a strong foundation as we continue to proactively manage our bank to further our progress and momentum in 2024."
Results for the first quarter of 2024 were affected by the following items of note aggregating to a negative impact of $0.04 per share:
- $91 million ($68 million after-tax) charge related to the special assessment imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on U.S. depository institutions, which impacted CIBC Bank USA (U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management);
- $37 million recovery to income tax that would be eliminated by a Federal proposal, if enacted in its current form(6) ($52 million tax equivalent basis (TEB) revenue and tax expense in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services with offsets in Corporate and Other; $37 million tax recovery in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services); and
- $15 million ($11 million after-tax) amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.
Our CET1 ratio(5) was 13.0% at January 31, 2024, compared with 12.4% at the end of the prior quarter. CIBC's leverage ratio(5)(7) and liquidity coverage ratio(5) at January 31, 2024 were 4.3% and 137%, respectively.
Core business performance
Canadian Personal and Business Banking reported net income of $650 million for the first quarter, up $60 million or 10% from the first quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue driven by higher net interest margin and volume growth and lower expenses, partially offset by a higher provision for credit losses. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings(2) were $1,224 million, up $245 million from the first quarter a year ago, from higher revenue and lower adjusted(1) non-interest expenses mainly due to timing of spend on strategic initiatives.
Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management reported net income of $498 million for the first quarter, up $29 million or 6% from the first quarter a year ago, primarily due to a lower provision for credit losses and higher revenue. The increase in revenue was primarily due to higher fee-based revenue from market appreciation and higher commission revenue from increased client activity in wealth management. Commercial banking revenue was comparable with the prior year as volume growth and higher fees were offset by lower loan and deposit margins. Expenses increased primarily due to higher performance-based compensation. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings(2) were $705 million, up $19 million from the first quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue in wealth management.

(6) | This item of note reports the impact on consolidated income tax expense that could be subject to an adjustment to our reported results in future periods if a Federal tax proposal were to be substantively enacted in its current form. The corresponding impact on TEB in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services and Corporate and Other is also included in this item of note with no impact on the consolidated item of note. |

U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management reported a net loss of $9 million (US$7 million) for the first quarter, down $210 million (US$157 million or 105%) from the first quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher expenses including a $91 million (US$67 million) charge related to the special assessment imposed by the FDIC, higher provision for credit losses, lower annual performance-based mutual fund fees, lower net interest income due to higher cost of deposits partially offset by higher loan margins, and higher employee-related compensation. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings(1) were $302 million (US$224 million), down $40 million (US$31 million) from the first quarter a year ago, due to lower revenue and higher expenses.
Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services reported net income of $612 million for the first quarter, which was comparable with the first quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue, offset by higher non-interest expenses and a higher provision for credit losses. Higher revenue from our global markets, investment banking and direct financial services businesses was partially offset by lower corporate banking revenue. Expenses were up due to higher spending on strategic initiatives and higher performance-based and employee-related compensation. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings(1) were down $34 million or 4% from the first quarter a year ago as higher revenue was more than offset by higher expenses.
Credit quality
Provision for credit losses was $585 million, up $290 million from the same quarter last year. Provision for credit losses on performing loans was up as the same quarter last year included a favourable change in our economic outlook partially offset by a higher level of unfavourable credit migration. Provision for credit losses on impaired loans was up mainly due to higher provisions in Canadian Personal and Business Banking, and U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management.
(1) | This measure is a non-GAAP measure. For additional information and a reconciliation of reported results to adjusted results, where applicable, see the "Non-GAAP measures" section. |
Non-GAAP measures
We use a number of financial measures to assess the performance of our business lines as described below. Some measures are calculated in accordance with GAAP (International Financial Reporting Standards), while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP, and accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Investors may find these non-GAAP measures, which include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios as defined in National Instrument 52-112 "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure", useful in understanding how management views underlying business performance.
Management assesses results on a reported and adjusted basis and considers both as useful measures of performance. Adjusted measures, which include adjusted total revenue, adjusted provision for credit losses, adjusted non-interest expenses, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted income taxes, adjusted net income and adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings, remove items of note from reported results to calculate our adjusted results. Adjusted measures represent non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP ratios include an adjusted measure as one or more of their components. Non-GAAP ratios include adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted efficiency ratio, adjusted operating leverage, adjusted dividend payout ratio, adjusted return on common shareholders' equity and adjusted effective tax rate.
Certain additional disclosures for these specified financial measures have been incorporated by reference and can be found in the "Non-GAAP measures" section of our Report to Shareholders for the first quarter of 2024 available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

Making a difference in our communities

- CIBC made an additional donation of $5 million to the CIBC Foundation, reinforcing its commitment to grow the CIBC Foundation and advancing the bank's efforts to creating a world without limits to ambition by creating access to opportunities.
- CIBC donated $500,000 to establish a suite of scholarships at Concordia University to empower women students, students of colour, Indigenous students, students with disabilities and students from the LGBTQ+ community.
- CIBC teamed up with professional hockey player Connor Bedard of the Chicago Blackhawks to be ambassador for the bank and increased its donation to the Christine Sinclair Foundation to a total of $190,000 in honour of Christine ending her international soccer career with a world-record 190 goals for Canada.

A NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
From time to time, we make written or oral forward-looking statements within the meaning of certain securities laws, including in this news release, in other filings with Canadian securities regulators or the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, in other reports to shareholders, and in other communications. All such statements are made pursuant to the "safe harbour" provisions of, and are intended to be forward-looking statements under applicable Canadian and U.S. securities legislation, including the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our operations, business lines, financial condition, risk management, priorities, targets and sustainability commitments (including with respect to net-zero emissions and our environmental, social and governance (ESG) related activities), ongoing objectives, strategies, the regulatory environment in which we operate and outlook for calendar year 2024 and subsequent periods. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "forecast", "target", "predict", "commit", "ambition", "goal", "strive", "project", "objective" and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "may", "should", "would" and "could". By their nature, these statements require us to make assumptions, and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific. Given the continuing impact of high inflation, rising interest rates, ongoing adverse developments in the U.S. banking sector which adds pressure on liquidity and funding conditions for the financial industry, the impact of hybrid work arrangements and higher interest rates on the U.S. real estate sector, potential recession and the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East on the global economy, financial markets, and our business, results of operations, reputation and financial condition, there is inherently more uncertainty associated with our assumptions as compared to prior periods. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, affect our operations, performance and results, and could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. These factors include: inflationary pressures; global supply-chain disruptions; geopolitical risk, including from the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, the occurrence, continuance or intensification of public health emergencies, such as the impact of post-pandemic hybrid work arrangements, and any related government policies and actions; credit, market, liquidity, strategic, insurance, operational, reputation, conduct and legal, regulatory and environmental risk; currency value and interest rate fluctuations, including as a result of market and oil price volatility; the effectiveness and adequacy of our risk management and valuation models and processes; legislative or regulatory developments in the jurisdictions where we operate, including the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Common Reporting Standard, and regulatory reforms in the United Kingdom and Europe, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's global standards for capital and liquidity reform, and those relating to bank recapitalization legislation and the payments system in Canada; amendments to, and interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions, and interest rate and liquidity regulatory guidance; exposure to, and the resolution of, significant litigation or regulatory matters, our ability to successfully appeal adverse outcomes of such matters and the timing, determination and recovery of amounts related to such matters; the effect of changes to accounting standards, rules and interpretations; changes in our estimates of reserves and allowances; changes in tax laws; changes to our credit ratings; political conditions and developments, including changes relating to economic or trade matters; the possible effect on our business of international conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, and terrorism; natural disasters, disruptions to public infrastructure and other catastrophic events; reliance on third parties to provide components of our business infrastructure; potential disruptions to our information technology systems and services; increasing cyber security risks which may include theft or disclosure of assets, unauthorized access to sensitive information, or operational disruption; social media risk; losses incurred as a result of internal or external fraud; anti-money laundering; the accuracy and completeness of information provided to us concerning clients and counterparties; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to us and our affiliates or associates; intensifying competition from established competitors and new entrants in the financial services industry including through internet and mobile banking; technological change including the use of data and artificial intelligence in our business; global capital market activity; changes in monetary and economic policy; general business and economic conditions worldwide, as well as in Canada, the U.S. and other countries where we have operations, including increasing Canadian household debt levels and global credit risks; climate change and other ESG related risks including our ability to implement various sustainability-related initiatives internally and with our clients under expected time frames and our ability to scale our sustainable finance products and services; our success in developing and introducing new products and services, expanding existing distribution channels, developing new distribution channels and realizing increased revenue from these channels; changes in client spending and saving habits; our ability to attract and retain key employees and executives; our ability to successfully execute our strategies and complete and integrate acquisitions and joint ventures; the risk that expected benefits of an acquisition, merger or divestiture will not be realized within the expected time frame or at all; and our ability to anticipate and manage the risks associated with these factors. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of our forward-looking statements. These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Additional information about these factors can be found in the "Management of risk" section of our 2023 Annual Report, as updated by our quarterly reports. Any forward-looking statements contained in this news release represent the views of management only as of the date hereof and are presented for the purpose of assisting our shareholders and financial analysts in understanding our financial position, objectives and priorities and anticipated financial performance as at and for the periods ended on the dates presented, and may not be appropriate for other purposes. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that is contained in this news release or in other communications except as required by law.
