Diluted earnings per share were $1.45 compared to $1.40 adjusting for the gain in the same period a year ago. Return on equity was 14.7% compared to 15.7% last year on the same basis.

"We delivered solid third quarter results for shareholders, with strong earnings in our personal and commercial businesses in Canadian and International Banking," said Brian Porter, President and CEO. "Our focus on customers across our diversified businesses contributed to our growth despite some challenging economic conditions."

"Canadian Banking had a strong quarter with underlying performance up 15%. All of its key business segments - retail and small business banking, commercial banking and wealth management - delivered very good growth. We continue to make investments to enhance customer experience and drive sustainable earnings growth.

"International Banking continued to show good growth momentum with earnings up 11%. Strong asset growth over the last year, primarily in the Pacific Alliance countries, complemented higher earnings in our other regions.

"A strong capital position of 10.4% common equity, along with earnings growth, allows us to continue making investments in our businesses to further organic growth, make selective acquisitions, and pay our shareholders via dividends. We announced a dividend increase of 2 cents, bringing our quarterly payment to 70 cents per share."

Non-GAAP Measures

The Bank uses a number of financial measures to assess its performance. Some of these measures are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), which are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), are not defined by GAAP and do not have standardized meanings that would ensure consistency and comparability between companies using these measures. These non-GAAP measures are used throughout this press release and are defined in the "Non-GAAP Measures" section of our Third Quarter 2015 Report to Shareholders.

Canadian Banking

Q3 2015 vs Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders was $863 million, a decrease of $463 million or 35%. Adjusting for the prior year's gain and contribution from CI Financial Corp. (CI) and changes in the Canadian tax legislation, net income attributable to equity holders increased $112 million or 15% compared to the same period last year. Good growth in assets and deposits, an increase in the net interest margin and higher non-interest income were partially offset by increased non-interest expenses and provision for credit losses.

Q3 2015 vs Q2 2015

Net income attributable to equity holders increased $34 million or 4%, mainly due to a longer quarter and growth in both assets and deposits, partly offset by higher non-interest expenses.

Year-to-date Q3 2015 vs Year-to-date Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders was $2,507 million, a decrease of $471 million or 16%. Adjusting for the prior year's gain and contribution from CI and changes in the Canadian tax legislation, net income attributable to equity holders increased $228 million or 10% driven by growth in assets and deposits, an increase in the net interest margin and non-interest income. Partly offsetting were higher non-interest expenses and provision for credit losses.

International Banking

Q3 2015 vs Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders was $485 million, an increase of $49 million or 11%. The quarter's results reflected strong loan growth across Latin America, higher fee income and contributions from our investments in associated corporations, and the positive impact of foreign currency translation. This quarter, the Bank had small acquisitions in Peru and Chile. These acquisitions were insignificant to net income this quarter, but did impact the various income and expense categories.

Q3 2015 vs Q2 2015

Net income attributable to equity holders increased $38 million or 9% due to the impact of a longer quarter, growth in fees, and a higher contribution from our investment in Thanachart Bank.

Year-to-date Q3 2015 vs Year-to-date Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders increased by $37 million or 3% to $1,349 million. Results reflected good loan growth, higher fees and contributions from our investment in associated corporations, partially offset by higher provisions for credit losses. The positive impact of foreign currency translation was mostly offset by the impact of Venezuela currency devaluation, and lower benefits from the credit mark on the acquired portfolio in Banco Colpatria.

Global Banking and Markets

Q3 2015 vs Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders was $375 million, a decrease of $92 million or 20%, compared to very strong results last year. This was driven mainly by a lower contribution from investment banking and Asia lending, as well as higher provisions for credit losses. These results were only partly offset by stronger results in the equities and fixed income businesses and the positive impact of foreign currency translation. The prior year also included an investment banking gain and a securities gain in U.S. lending.

Q3 2015 vs Q2 2015

Net income attributable to equity holders decreased $74 million or 16%. Stronger results in Canadian and U.S. lending were more than offset by weaker results in capital markets, precious metals and investment banking.

Year-to-date Q3 2015 vs Year-to-date Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders decreased $63 million or 5%. This was driven by lower contributions from investment banking, precious metals, and Asia lending, and by a lower securities gain in U.S. lending. This was partly offset by stronger results in equities and foreign exchange, and from the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

Other

The Other segment includes Group Treasury, smaller operating segments and other corporate items which are not allocated to a business line.

Net interest income, other operating income, and the provision for income taxes in each period include the elimination of tax-exempt income gross-up. This amount is included in the operating segments, which are reported on a taxable equivalent basis. The elimination was $108 million in the third quarter, compared to $89 million in the same period last year and $117 million last quarter.

Income from investments in associated corporations and the provision for income taxes in each period include the tax normalization adjustments related to the gross-up of income from associated companies. This adjustment normalizes the effective tax rate in the divisions to better present the contribution of the associated companies to the divisional results.

Q3 2015 vs Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders was unchanged at $72 million. Higher net gains on investment securities, impact of higher foreign currency translation benefits and lower taxes were partly offset by lower contributions from asset/liability management activities and higher expenses.

Q3 2015 vs Q2 2015

Net income attributable to equity holders was $72 million, compared to $32 million. The increase was mainly due to higher net gains on investment securities and higher foreign currency translation benefits. Partly offsetting were higher expenses and an increase in taxes this quarter.

Year-to-date Q3 2015 vs Year-to-date Q3 2014

Net income attributable to equity holders was $147 million, compared to $117 million. Higher net gains on investment securities and lower taxes were partly offset by lower contributions from asset/liabilities management activities and higher expenses.

Provision for Credit Losses

Q3 2015 vs Q3 2014

The provision for credit losses was $480 million, up $82 million. The increase was primarily due to higher provisions in International Banking retail, mostly from acquisition impacts, and Canadian Banking retail portfolios driven by growth in relatively higher spread products.

Q3 2015 vs Q2 2015

The provision for credit losses was $480 million up $32 million. The increase was primarily due to higher retail and commercial provisions in International Banking, driven by asset growth and acquisitions.

Year-to-date Q3 2015 vs Year-to-date Q3 2014

Provision for credit losses were $1,391 million, up $262 million. The increase was primarily due to higher International Banking retail provisions, mostly from acquisition impacts, and Mexico. Canadian Banking retail provisions were also higher, driven by growth in relatively higher spread products partly offset by lower provisions in Canadian Banking commercial portfolios.

Capital Ratios

The Bank's Common Equity Tier 1 ratio decreased by approximately 20 basis points this quarter to 10.4% primarily due to the impact of the acquisitions of Cencosud's financial services business in Chile and the operations of Citibank Peru.

The Bank continues to maintain a strong capital position. As at July 31, 2015, the CET1, Tier 1, Total capital and Leverage ratios are well above Basel III all-in minimum requirements.

Common Dividend

The Board of Directors, at its meeting on August 27, 2015, approved a dividend of 70 cents per share, an increase of two cents per share. This quarterly dividend is payable to shareholders of record as of October 6, 2015 on October 28, 2015.

Forward-looking statements

Our public communications often include oral or written forward-looking statements. Statements of this type are included in this document, and may be included in other filings with Canadian securities regulators or the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or in other communications. All such statements are made pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and any applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements made in this document, the Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Bank's 2014 Annual Report under the headings "Overview - Outlook," for Group Financial Performance "Outlook," for each business segment "Outlook" and in other statements regarding the Bank's objectives, strategies to achieve those objectives, the regulatory environment in which the Bank operates, anticipated financial results (including those in the area of risk management), and the outlook for the Bank's businesses and for the Canadian, U.S. and global economies. Such statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intent," "estimate," "plan," "may increase," "may fluctuate," and similar expressions of future or conditional verbs, such as "will," "may", "should," "would" and "could."

By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and the risk that predictions and other forward-looking statements will not prove to be accurate. Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements, as a number of important factors, many of which are beyond the Bank's control and the effects of which can be difficult to predict, could cause actual results to differ materially from the estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: the economic and financial conditions in Canada and globally; fluctuations in interest rates and currency values; liquidity and funding; significant market volatility and interruptions; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to the Bank and its affiliates; changes in monetary policy; legislative and regulatory developments in Canada and elsewhere, including changes to, and interpretations of tax laws and risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions and liquidity regulatory guidance; changes to the Bank's credit ratings; operational (including technology) and infrastructure risks; reputational risks; the risk that the Bank's risk management models may not take into account all relevant factors; the accuracy and completeness of information the Bank receives on customers and counterparties; the timely development and introduction of new products and services in receptive markets; the Bank's ability to expand existing distribution channels and to develop and realize revenues from new distribution channels; the Bank's ability to complete and integrate acquisitions and its other growth strategies; critical accounting estimates and the effects of changes in accounting policies and methods used by the Bank (See "Controls and Accounting Policies - Critical accounting estimates" in the Bank's 2014 Annual Report, as updated by quarterly reports); global capital markets activity; the Bank's ability to attract and retain key executives;
reliance on third parties to provide components of the Bank's business infrastructure; unexpected changes in consumer spending and saving habits; technological developments; fraud by internal or external parties, including the use of new technologies in unprecedented ways to defraud the Bank or its customers; increasing cyber security risks which may include theft of assets, unauthorized access to sensitive information or operational disruption; consolidation in the Canadian financial services sector; competition, both from new entrants and established competitors; judicial and regulatory proceedings; natural disasters, including, but not limited to, earthquakes and hurricanes, and disruptions to public infrastructure, such as transportation, communication, power or water supply; the possible impact of international conflicts and other developments, including terrorist activities and war; the effects of disease or illness on local, national or international economies; and the Bank's anticipation of and success in managing the risks implied by the foregoing. A substantial amount of the Bank's business involves making loans or otherwise committing resources to specific companies, industries or countries. Unforeseen events affecting such borrowers, industries or countries could have a material adverse effect on the Bank's financial results, businesses, financial condition or liquidity. These and other factors may cause the Bank's actual performance to differ materially from that contemplated by forward-looking statements. For more information, see the "Risk Management" section starting on page 65 of the Bank's 2014 Annual Report.

Material economic assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this document are set out in the 2014 Annual Report under the heading "Overview - Outlook," as updated by quarterly reports; and for each business segment "Outlook". The "Outlook" sections are based on the Bank's views and the actual outcome is uncertain. Readers should consider the above-noted factors when reviewing these sections.

The preceding list of factors is not exhaustive of all possible risk factors and other factors could also adversely affect the Bank's results. When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to the Bank and its securities, investors and others should carefully consider the preceding factors, other uncertainties and potential events. The Bank does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on its behalf.
