TORONTO, Nov. 26, 2019 /CNW/ - Scotiabank reported net income of $8,798 million in 2019, compared with net income of $8,724 million in 2018. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $6.68, compared to $6.82 in the previous year. Return on equity was 13.1%, compared to 14.5% in the previous year.
Adjusting for the Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts(1) of $611 million after tax ($593 million pre-tax), net income increased 3% to $9,409 million and EPS rose to $7.14 from $7.11 in the previous year.
Reported net income for the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2019 was $2,308 million compared to $2,271 million in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share was $1.73, compared to $1.71 in the same period a year ago. Return on equity was 13.3% compared to 13.8% a year ago.
Adjusting for Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts(1), net income increased 2% to $2,400 million and EPS rose to $1.82 from $1.77 last year.
"We delivered improved fourth quarter results to end a productive year for the Bank. In 2019, we made significant progress against our strategic objectives by sharpening our geographic footprint and improving our business mix. We've also invested heavily in our people, processes, and technology to better position the Bank for success over the long-term," said Brian Porter, President and CEO of Scotiabank.
Canadian Banking generated earnings of $4,424 million in 2019 driven by solid asset and deposit growth, margin expansion, and higher wealth management earnings. Canadian Banking continued to deliver an excellent customer experience across our businesses and channels and strengthened its product suite throughout the year.
International Banking delivered another strong year of double-digit earnings growth with reported earnings of $3,387 million in 2019. The business successfully integrated a number of acquisitions this year, delivering better than expected synergies. Our geographic re-positioning efforts are substantially complete, giving us greater scale, lower operating risk, and more opportunities for growth.
Global Banking and Markets reported earnings of $1,534 million in 2019, with double-digit asset growth and stronger performance in the second half of the year in our capital markets business.
The Bank's Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio remains strong at 11.1%, or 11.55% on a pro-forma basis including the impact of announced divestitures, with strong internal capital generation, and prudent growth of risk weighted assets, while buying back 15 million shares this year.
"Strategically we set a course to become a more focused Bank. As a result of this effort, we have repositioned our international footprint, improved our business mix and are now realizing the benefits of our investments in digital," said Porter. "Looking ahead in 2020, we are better positioned to build an even better Bank, offering a superior customer experience, and delivering sustainable, long-term earnings growth for our shareholders."

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) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are not defined by GAAP and do not have standardized meanings that would ensure consistency and comparability among companies using these measures. The Bank believes that certain non-GAAP measures are useful in assessing ongoing business performance and provide readers with a better understanding of how management assesses performance. These non-GAAP measures are used throughout this press release and are defined in the "Non-GAAP Measures" section of our 2019 Annual Report.
Adjusted results and diluted earnings per share
The following tables present reconciliations of GAAP Reported financial results to Non-GAAP Adjusted financial results. The financial results have been adjusted for the following:
Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts – Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts are defined as:
A) Acquisition-related costs
1. Integration costs – Includes costs that are incurred and relate to integrating the acquired operations and are recorded in the Canadian and International Banking operating segments. These costs will cease once integration is complete. The costs relate to the following acquisitions:
- Banco Cencosud, Peru (closed Q2, 2019)
- Banco Dominicano del Progreso, Dominican Republic (closed Q2, 2019)
- MD Financial Management, Canada (closed Q4, 2018)
- Jarislowsky, Fraser Limited, Canada (closed Q3, 2018)
- Citibank consumer and small and medium enterprise operations, Colombia (closed Q3, 2018)
- BBVA, Chile (closed Q3, 2018)
2. Day 1 provision for credit losses on acquired performing financial instruments, as required by IFRS 9. The standard does not differentiate between originated and purchased performing loans and as such, requires the same accounting treatment for both. These credit losses are considered Acquisition-related costs in periods where applicable and are recorded in the International Banking segment. The costs for 2019 relate to Banco Cencosud, Peru and Banco Dominicano del Progreso, Dominican Republic. The costs for 2018 relate to BBVA, Chile and Citibank, Colombia.
3. Amortization of Acquisition-related intangible assets, excluding software. These costs relate to the six acquisitions above, as well as prior acquisitions and are recorded in the Canadian and International Banking operating segments.
B) Net (gain)/loss on divestitures – The Bank has announced a number of divestitures in 2019 in accordance with its strategy to reposition the Bank. The net loss attributable to equity holders of $308 million was recorded in the Other segment, relating to the following divestitures (refer to Note 37 in the 2019 Annual Report for further details):
- Gain on sale of banking operations in the Caribbean (closed Q4, 2019)
- Loss on sale of Colfondos AFP announced in Q4, 2019

The above table is computed on a basis that is different than the table "Impact of Foreign Currency Translation" on page 10. |
Core banking assets
Core banking assets are average earning assets excluding bankers' acceptances and average trading assets within Global Banking and Markets.
Core banking margin
This ratio represents net interest income divided by average core banking assets.
Return on equity
Return on equity is a profitability measure that presents the net income attributable to common shareholders as a percentage of average common shareholders' equity.
In the first quarter of 2019, in line with OSFI's increased Domestic Stability Buffer announced requirements, the Bank increased the capital attributed to its business lines to approximate 10.0% of Basel III common equity capital requirements based on credit, market and operational risks and leverage inherent within each business segment. Previously, capital was attributed based on a methodology that approximated 9.5% of Basel III common equity capital requirements.
Return on equity for the business segments is calculated as a ratio of net income attributable to common shareholders of the business segment and the capital attributed. Prior period returns on equity for the business segments have not been restated.

Group Financial Performance
Net income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net income was $2,308 million, an increase of $37 million or 2%. Adjusting for Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts, net income was $2,400 million, an increase of $55 million or 2%, due primarily to higher revenue.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net income was $2,308 million, an increase of $324 million or 16%. Adjusting for Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts, net income was $2,400 million, a decrease of $55 million or 2%, due primarily to higher provision for credit losses and higher non-interest expenses, offset by lower income tax expense.
Net interest income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net interest income was $4,336 million, an increase of $116 million or 3%, primarily from solid growth in assets and deposits in Canadian Banking, commercial and retail lending in International Banking, as well as higher corporate loans in Global Banking and Markets. These increases were partly offset by lower income contribution from asset/liability management activities, and the negative impact of foreign currency translation.
The core banking margin was down seven basis points to 2.40%. The decrease in margin was driven by lower spreads on asset/liability management activities, and lower margins in International Banking and Global Banking and Markets, partially offset by higher margins in Canadian Banking.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net interest income was $4,336 million, a decrease of $38 million or 1%, from lower asset/liability management activities and the negative impact of foreign currency translation, partly offset by strong asset growth in Canadian Banking.
The core banking margin of 2.40% was down five basis points. The decrease in the margin was driven by lower spreads on asset/liability management activities, lower margin contribution from International Banking due mainly to unfavourable foreign currency translation on higher margin assets, as well as lower margins in Canadian Banking.
Non-interest income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Non-interest income was $3,632 million, up $404 million or 13%. Acquisitions contributed to approximately one quarter of the growth. Other primary contributors to growth were higher banking and wealth management revenues, underwriting and advisory fees, and net gains on investments. These were partly offset by the impact of the new revenue accounting standard that requires credit card expenses to be netted against credit card revenue.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Non-interest income was up $347 million or 11%. Adjusting for the net gain on divestitures in the current quarter and the loss on divestitures in the prior quarter, non-interest income increased by $35 million or 1%. The growth was driven by higher banking, underwriting and advisory, and wealth management fees, partly offset by lower trading revenues and income from associated corporations.
Provision for credit losses
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
The provision for credit losses was $753 million, an increase of $163 million or 28%, due to higher provisions in both the retail and commercial portfolios in line with organic and acquisition driven asset growth.
The provision for credit losses on impaired financial instruments was $744 million, up $107 million due to higher retail portfolio provisions in International Banking in line with growth and in Canadian Banking due to lower recoveries, as well as higher commercial portfolio provisions in Canadian Banking and in Global Banking and Markets due to lower recoveries. Commercial portfolio provisions in International Banking remained relatively stable, with the provision relating to the Barbados debt restructuring being offset with higher recoveries last year. The provision for credit losses ratio on impaired loans was 49 basis points, an increase of seven basis points. The provision on performing financial instruments was $9 million, an increase of $56 million due primarily to hurricane-related reversals last year and retail portfolio growth. The provision for credit losses ratio increased 11 basis points to 50 basis points.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
The provision for credit losses was $753 million, an increase of $40 million.
The provision on impaired financial instruments decreased $32 million or 4%, due primarily to lower retail portfolio provisions driven by lower write-offs in Canada and credit quality improvements in International Banking, partially offset by higher commercial portfolio provisions in Canadian Banking and Global Banking and Markets. The provision for credit losses ratio on impaired loans was 49 basis points, a decrease of three basis points. The provision for performing financial instruments was $9 million, an increase of $72 million mainly in the International Banking retail portfolio driven by less favourable macroeconomic impacts due to geopolitical uncertainty and hurricanes in the Bahamas. The prior quarter benefitted from credit quality improvements. The provision for credit losses ratio increased two basis points to 50 basis points.
Non-interest expenses
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Non-interest expenses were $4,311 million, up $247 million or 6%. Adjusting for Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts, non-interest expenses also grew by 6%. Higher non-interest expenses from the impact of acquisitions, partly offset by the impact of the new revenue accounting standard that requires card expenses to be netted against card revenues, contributed to approximately 1% of the growth. The remaining 5% increase was due to higher salaries and benefits related to regulatory and technology initiatives and higher depreciation and amortization, performance based compensation and other business growth related expenses. Partly offsetting were lower professional fees and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.
The productivity ratio was 54.1% compared to 54.6%. Adjusting for Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts, the productivity ratio was 52.7% compared to 53.2%.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Non-interest expenses were up $102 million or 2%. Adjusting for Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts, non-interest expenses also grew by 2%. The increase was due to higher professional fees, technology costs and other business growth related expenses partly offset by lower share-based compensation costs, salaries and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.
The productivity ratio was 54.1% compared to 55.0%.
Income taxes
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
The effective tax rate was 20.5% compared to 18.7% due primarily to higher taxes in certain foreign jurisdictions.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
The effective tax rate decreased to 20.5% from 27.5% due primarily to higher taxes related to the loss on the announced divestiture of Puerto Rico in the prior quarter.
Common Dividend
The Board of Directors at its meeting on November 25, 2019 approved the quarterly dividend of 90 cents per common share. This quarterly dividend applies to shareholders of record as of January 7, 2020 and is payable January 29, 2020.
Capital Ratios
The Bank continues to maintain strong, high quality capital levels which position it well for future business growth. The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio as at October 31, 2019 was 11.1%, remaining flat from prior year due primarily to strong internal capital generation which was offset by strong risk-weighted asset growth, share buybacks under the Bank's Normal Course Issuer Bid, the impact from employee pension and retirement benefits on accumulated other comprehensive income, and the impact from the Bank's acquisitions during the year.
The Bank's Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.2% as at October 31, 2019, a decline of approximately 30 basis points from the prior year, primarily due to the redemptions of $650 million of Scotiabank Tier 1 Trust Securities and $300 million of preferred shares. The Total capital ratio was 14.2% as at October 31, 2019, a decline of 10 basis points from 2018, due primarily to the redemptions of Tier 1 capital noted above and the redemption of $1.75 billion of subordinated debentures. These redemptions were partly offset by the issuances of $3.25 billion of subordinated debentures during the year. The Leverage ratio was 4.2%, a decline of approximately 30 basis points in 2019 due primarily to the Bank's acquisitions and strong organic asset growth.
The Bank's capital ratios continue to be well in excess of OSFI's minimum capital ratio requirements for 2019 (including the 1% D-SIB surcharge and 2% Domestic Stability Buffer requirements) of 10.0%, 11.5% and 13.5% for CET1, Tier 1 and Total Capital, respectively. The Bank was well above the OSFI minimum Leverage ratio as at October 31, 2019.

Net income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net income attributable to equity holders was $1,143 million, an increase of 3%. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, net income was $1,160 million compared to $1,146 million, up 1%. The increase was due primarily to strong asset and deposit growth, margin expansion, and the impact of acquisitions, partially offset by higher provisions for credit losses and higher non-interest expenses. Lower real estate gains reduced earnings growth by 2%.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net income attributable to equity holders declined $17 million or 1% due primarily to higher non-interest expenses, higher provision for credit losses, and net interest margin compression, partially offset by asset and deposit growth and higher wealth management fees.
Net interest income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net interest income of $2,138 million was up $109 million or 5%. This was driven by solid growth in assets and deposits, and an increase in net interest margin. The margin improved two basis points to 2.47% primarily driven by the impact of prior interest rate increases by the Bank of Canada.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net interest income increased $18 million or 1%, due to asset and deposit growth, partially offset by a decrease of two basis points in the net interest margin mainly due to lower residential mortgage and retail deposit margins.
Non-interest income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Non-interest income of $1,428 million increased $14 million or 1%. Higher wealth management fee income was partly offset by reduced net card revenue due to the impact of the new revenue accounting standard and lower gains on sale of real estate.

Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
The provision for credit losses was $247 million, compared to $198 million.

The provision on performing loans increased by $8 million due primarily to higher retail provisions driven by prior quarter credit quality improvements partially offset by lower commercial provisions from improved credit quality in the current quarter. The provision for credit losses ratio remained unchanged at 27 basis points.
Non-interest expenses
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Non-interest expenses were $1,779 million, up $32 million or 2% largely relating to the impact of prior year acquisitions. Higher personnel costs to support business development and regulatory initiatives were partly offset by the impact of the new revenue accounting standard.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Non-interest expenses increased $56 million or 3%, largely driven by higher personnel and technology costs to support business development and regulatory initiatives.

Net income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net income attributable to equity holders of $733 million was up $21 million, or 3%. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, net income increased to $781 million, up 5%. This growth was largely driven by higher net interest income due to strong loan growth in Pacific Alliance countries, and higher non-interest income. This was partially offset by increased provisions for credit losses as last year benefited from recoveries in Puerto Rico and Latin America, higher non-interest expenses and income taxes. The Alignment of reporting period in Thailand last year, impacted the adjusted earnings growth by 3%.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net income attributable to equity holders decreased by $48 million or 6%. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, net income decreased by $34 million or 4% driven by higher provision for credit losses and lower investment gains, partially offset by good growth in banking and card fees.
Financial performance on a Constant Dollar Basis
The discussion below on the results of operations is on a constant dollar basis that excludes the impact of foreign currency translation, and is a non-GAAP financial measure (refer to Non-GAAP Measures). The Bank believes that reporting in constant dollars is useful for readers in assessing ongoing business performance. Ratios are on a reported basis.

Net income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net income attributable to equity holders of $733 million was up $11 million or 1%. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, net income increased to $781 million, up 4%. This growth was largely driven by higher net interest income due to strong loan growth in Pacific Alliance countries, and higher non-interest income. This was partially offset by increased provisions for credit losses due to higher recoveries in Puerto Rico and Latin America last year, higher non-interest expenses and income taxes. The Alignment of reporting period in Thailand last year, impacted the adjusted earnings growth by 3%.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net income attributable to equity holders decreased by $44 million or 6%. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, net income decreased by $30 million or 4%, driven by higher provision for credit losses and lower investment gains, partially offset by good growth in banking and card fees.
Net interest income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net interest income was $2,124 million, up $140 million or 7% driven by good retail and commercial loan growth. Net interest margin decreased by nine basis points to 4.43% due to margin compression in Mexico and Chile.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net interest income increased $19 million or 1% in line with loan growth. Net interest margin decreased by two basis points driven by margin compression in Chile.
Non-interest income
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Non-interest income was $1,250 million, up $154 million or 14% driven by higher banking fees and higher investment gains.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Non-interest income decreased $7 million or 1% impacted by lower trading revenues, partially offset by higher banking fees, card fees, and increased contribution from associated corporations.
Provision for credit losses
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
The provision for credit losses was $502 million, compared to $395 million. The provision on impaired loans was $477 million compared to $449 million, up 6% due primarily to volume growth in the retail portfolios. The provision for credit losses ratio on impaired loans was 126 basis points, an increase of six basis points. The provision on performing loans increased $80 million due primarily to hurricane-related provision reversals and the benefits of credit quality improvements in the prior year. The provision for credit losses ratio was 134 basis points, an increase of 29 basis points.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
The provision for credit losses was $502 million, compared to $463 million. The provision on impaired loans was $477 million compared to $506 million, down 6% in both the retail and commercial portfolios. The provision for credit losses ratio on impaired loans decreased 10 basis points to 126 basis points. The provision on performing loans increased $68 million driven mainly by less favourable macroeconomic impacts due to geopolitical uncertainty, the prior quarter benefits due to credit quality improvements, and hurricanes in the Bahamas. The provision for credit losses ratio was 134 basis points, an increase of 10 basis points.
Non-interest expenses
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Non-interest expenses increased $118 million or 7% to $1,795 million. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, non-interest expenses increased 6%, due to business volume growth, higher technology costs and regulatory costs, partially offset by acquisition-related synergies.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Non-interest expenses increased $56 million, or 3%. Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, non-interest expenses increased by $24 million or up 1%, due to business volume growth.
Income taxes
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, the effective tax rate increased to 24.0% from 20.2% last year due primarily to lower tax benefits in Mexico and lower inflation in Chile.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Adjusting for Acquisition-related costs, the effective tax rate increased to 24.0% from 23.2% mainly driven by lower inflation in Mexico and Chile.
Average Assets
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018

The Other segment includes Group Treasury, smaller operating segments, Net loss on divestitures 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 $58 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $31 million in the same period last year and $48 million last quarter. Net 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.
Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018
Net loss attributable to equity holders was $80 million. Adjusting for the Net loss on divestitures of $32 million, net loss attributable to equity holders was $48 million, compared to $64 million. The lower net loss was due mainly to higher investment gains, partly offset by lower contributions from asset/liability management activities and higher non-interest expenses.
Q4 2019 vs Q3 2019
Net loss attributable to equity holders was $80 million. Adjusting for the Net loss on divestitures in both periods, the net loss attributable to equity holders was $48 million, compared to $33 million. The higher net loss was due primarily to lower contributions from asset/liability management activities.

Basis of preparation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and accounting requirements of OSFI in accordance with Section 308 of the Bank Act, except for certain required disclosures. Therefore, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Bank's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019 which will be available today at www.Scotiabank.com.
Forward-Looking Statements
From time to time, 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 ("SEC"), or in other communications. In addition, representatives of the Bank may include forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others. 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 2019 Annual Report under the headings "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, 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," "foresee," "forecast," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "plan," "goal," "project," and similar expressions of future or conditional verbs, such as "will," "may," "should," "would" and "could."
By their very nature, forward-looking statements require us to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, which give rise to the possibility that our predictions, forecasts, projections, expectations or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that our assumptions may not be correct and that our financial performance objectives, vision and strategic goals will not be achieved.
We caution readers not to place undue reliance on these statements as a number of risk factors, many of which are beyond our control and effects of which can be difficult to predict, could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations, targets, estimates or intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements.
The future outcomes that relate to forward-looking statements may be influenced by many factors, including but not limited to: general economic and market conditions in the countries in which we operate; changes in currency and interest rates; increased funding costs and market volatility due to market illiquidity and competition for funding; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to the Bank and its affiliates; changes in monetary, fiscal, or economic policy and tax legislation and interpretation; changes in laws and regulations or in supervisory expectations or requirements, including capital, interest rate and liquidity requirements and guidance, and the effect of such changes on funding costs; changes to our credit ratings; operational and infrastructure risks; reputational risks; the accuracy and completeness of information the Bank receives on customers and counterparties; the timely development and introduction of new products and services; our ability to execute our strategic plans, including the successful completion of acquisitions and dispositions, including obtaining regulatory approvals; critical accounting estimates and the effect of changes to accounting standards, rules and interpretations on these estimates; global capital markets activity; the Bank's ability to attract, develop and retain key executives; the evolution of various types of fraud or other criminal behaviour to which the Bank is exposed; disruptions in or attacks (including cyber-attacks) on the Bank's information technology, internet, network access, or other voice or data communications systems or services; increased competition in the geographic and in business areas in which we operate, including through internet and mobile banking and non-traditional competitors; exposure related to significant litigation and regulatory matters; the occurrence of natural and unnatural catastrophic events and claims resulting from such events; 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. The Bank cautions that the preceding list is not exhaustive of all possible risk factors and other factors could also adversely affect the Bank's results, for more information, please see the "Risk Management" section of the Bank's 2019 Annual Report, as may be updated by quarterly reports.
Material economic assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this document are set out in the 2019 Annual Report under the headings "Outlook", as updated by quarterly reports. 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. 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.
Any forward-looking statements contained in this document represent the views of management only as of the date hereof and are presented for the purpose of assisting the Bank's shareholders and analysts in understanding the Bank's 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. 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 or on its behalf.
Additional information relating to the Bank, including the Bank's Annual Information Form, can be located on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com and on the EDGAR section of the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
