"In 2021, we again demonstrated the quality of our differentiated business model. Our annual revenue surpassed
"Our brand of proactive, personalized, and specialized service clearly resonates with clients, and our team's relentless client-centric focus resulted in franchise building growth of loans and branch-raised deposits. Our core operating performance and a significant reduction in the performing loan provision for credit losses were the primary drivers of the 32% increase in full-year net income available to common shareholders. While we benefited from a macroeconomic outlook that improved compared to the prior year, we also delivered strong credit performance driven by prudent credit risk management, with a decline in gross impaired loans and realized losses that remained below our five-year average."
"Our momentum will continue for the year ahead, and we expect to deliver double-digit growth of loans and branch-raised deposits. It's an exciting time at CWB as we continue to invest in our capabilities and improve our full-service client experience through enhancements to our in-person and digital channels. We expect to deliver pre-tax, pre-provision income growth in the mid to high-single digits next year based on strong revenue growth balanced with the significant investments we'll continue to make in our capabilities to support higher levels of full-service client growth for the years to come."

Diluted EPS of Adjusted EPS of | Up 38% Up 37% | |
Adjusted ROE of 12.5% | Up 300 bp | |
Efficiency ratio of 52.9% | Up 200 bp(2) |
Compared to the same quarter last year, common shareholders' net income increased as 10% revenue growth and a decline in the provision for credit losses more than offset non-interest expense growth. In line with our strategy, accelerated growth of full-service client relationships was the primary driver of very strong branch-raised deposit(1) growth of 16%, which included a 26% increase in demand and notice deposits. Net interest income increased 11% as the benefit of 9% loan growth was supported by a two basis point expansion of net interest margin(1). To support strong loan growth while prudently managing our regulatory capital ratios, we issued common shares for net proceeds of
Q4 2021, | Common shareholders' net income of | Up 4% |
Diluted EPS of Adjusted EPS of | Up 3% Up 2% | |
Adjusted ROE of 12.5% | Up 20 bp | |
Efficiency ratio of 52.9% | Up 520 bp |
Common shareholders' net income increased compared to last quarter as a lower provision for credit losses was largely offset by a 10% increase in non-interest expenses, including the impact of continued investment in our teams and technology, the customary seasonal increase in certain expenses, and additional costs to implement enhancements to our AIRB tools and processes. Net interest income was consistent with last quarter, as the benefit of 2% loan growth was offset by a four basis point decline in net interest margin. The decline in net interest margin primarily reflects lower yields on our fixed rate loan portfolio, driven by very strong residential mortgage growth, and lower fee income recognized in loan yields compared to the prior quarter. The provision for credit losses on total loans as a percentage of average loans declined 23 basis points, primarily driven by lower impaired loan provisions due to the factors noted in the comparison to the same quarter last year.
Fiscal 2021, | Common shareholders' net income of | Up 32% |
Diluted EPS of Adjusted EPS of | Up 30% Up 30% | |
Adjusted ROE of 11.8% | Up 230 bp | |
Efficiency ratio of 49.1% (47.7% excluding the impact of the wealth acquisition) | Up 140 bp (Up 80 bp) |
Compared to last year, the increase in common shareholders' net income was primarily driven by 13% growth in revenue and a decline in the provision for credit losses, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expenses. Revenue growth included a 12% increase in net interest income and a 26% increase in non-interest income driven by the wealth acquisition. The increase in net interest income was attributable to 9% annual loan growth and a four basis point increase in net interest margin. Non-interest expenses were up 17%, or approximately 10% excluding the wealth acquisition and costs associated with operating and enhancing our AIRB tools and processes. A nine basis point provision for credit losses on total loans as a percentage of average loans was 23 basis points lower than the prior year, primarily driven by a decline in the performing loan provision due to an improved macroeconomic outlook. Common shareholders' net income also reflected the first year of semi-annual coupon payments on our Series 1 and Series 2 Non-Viability Contingent Capital (NVCC) Limited Recourse Capital Notes (LRCN), which totaled

Fiscal 2022 Outlook
Leveraging our enhanced capabilities through ongoing strategic execution and a continued recovery of the Canadian economy, we expect our teams will deliver strong full-service client growth in strategically targeted market segments and within our risk appetite. For fiscal 2022, we are targeting double-digit annual percentage growth of both branch-raised deposits and loans, where prudent.
The timing and magnitude of potential
We expect to deliver annual pre-tax, pre-provision income growth in the mid- to high- single-digit range, and annual percentage growth of diluted earnings per common share in the low- to mid- single-digit range due to an expected increase in the provision for credit losses.
For further details on our expectations for fiscal 2022, refer to the Outlook section of our annual Management's Discussion and Analysis within the 2021 Annual Report.

Financial Summary
This financial summary, dated
The condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are presented in Canadian dollars.
Forward-looking Statements
From time to time, we make written and verbal forward-looking statements. Statements of this type are included in our Annual Report and reports to shareholders and may be included in filings with Canadian securities regulators or in other communications such as media releases and corporate presentations. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our objectives and strategies, targeted and expected financial results and the outlook for CWB's businesses or for the Canadian economy. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "may increase", "may impact", "goal", "focus", "potential", "proposed" and other similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "should", "would" and "could".
By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, which give rise to the possibility that our predictions, forecasts, projections, expectations and conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that our assumptions may not be correct, and that our strategic goals will not be achieved.
A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, general business and economic conditions in
Additional information about these factors can be found in the Risk Management sections of our MD&A. These and other factors should be considered carefully, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as a number of important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements contained in this document represent our views as of the date hereof. Unless required by securities law, we do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or verbal, that may be made from time to time by us or on our behalf. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are presented for the purpose of assisting readers in understanding our financial position and results of operations as at and for the periods ended on the dates presented, as well as our strategic priorities and objectives, and may not be appropriate for other purposes.
Assumptions about the performance of the Canadian economy over the forecast horizon and how it will affect our business are material factors considered when setting organizational objectives and targets. In determining expectations for economic growth, we consider our own forecasts, economic data and forecasts provided by the Canadian government and its agencies, as well as certain private sector forecasts. These forecasts are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific. The full extent of the impact that COVID-19, including evolving government and regulatory responses to the outbreak, will continue to have on the Canadian economy and our business is uncertain and difficult to predict at this time. Where relevant, material economic assumptions underlying forward-looking statements are disclosed within the Fiscal 2022Outlook and Allowance for Credit Losses sections of our MD&A.
Non-GAAP Measures
We use a number of financial measures and ratios to assess our performance against strategic initiatives and operational benchmarks. Some of these financial measures and ratios do not have standardized meanings prescribed by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other financial institutions. Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios provide readers with an enhanced understanding of how we view our ongoing performance. These measures and ratios may also provide the ability to analyze trends related to profitability and the effectiveness of our operations and strategies, and are disclosed in compliance with National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure.
To calculate non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items from our financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS. Adjustments relate to items which we believe are not indicative of underlying operating performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures include:
- Adjusted non-interest expenses – total non-interest expenses, excluding pre-tax amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and acquisition and integration costs. Acquisition and integration costs include direct and incremental costs incurred as part of the execution and integration of the acquisition of the businesses of T.E. Wealth and
Leon Frazer & Associates . - Adjusted common shareholders' net income – total common shareholders' net income, excluding the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and acquisition and integration costs, net of tax.
- Pre-tax, pre-provision income – total revenue less adjusted non-interest expenses.
The following table provides a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to our reported financial results.

Total revenue of
The provision for credit losses on total loans as a percentage of average loans represented a 12 basis point recovery this quarter and was 38 basis points lower than the same quarter last year. The performing loan provision declined 24 basis points due to the impact of a more optimistic macroeconomic outlook associated with the ongoing economic recovery, and impaired loan provisions declined 14 basis points. Lower impaired loan provisions reflected the reversal of provisions related to previously impaired loans that were resolved with lower than expected realized losses, combined with a decline in new impaired loan formations.

Credit quality continued to reflect the secured nature of our lending portfolio, disciplined underwriting practices and proactive loan management. Borrower credit performance has remained strong through the pandemic, and we finished the year with impaired loans and payment delinquencies both below pre-COVID-19 levels.

The level of gross impaired loans fluctuates as loans become impaired and are subsequently resolved, and does not directly reflect the dollar value of expected write-offs given tangible security held in support of lending exposures. The dollar amount of gross impaired loans totaled

Gross impaired loan balances represented 0.61% of gross loans, down from 0.85% last year and 0.86% last quarter due to strong resolutions during the quarter, which included write-offs of previously recognized provisions, and lower new impaired loan formations. New impaired loan formations of
We continue to carefully monitor the entire loan portfolio to assess evolving risk profiles, with a focus on industries particularly affected by restrictions put in place to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus, including restaurants and hotels. Our exposure within these industries is well-diversified and supported by high-quality, resilient borrowers that have delivered very stable credit performance through the pandemic so far. Our strong credit risk management framework, including well-established underwriting standards, the secured nature of our lending portfolio with conservative loan-to-value ratios, and proactive approach to working with clients through difficult periods is further enhanced by our AIRB tools and has continued to be an effective approach. This is demonstrated by our history of low write-offs as a percentage of total loans, including through past periods of economic volatility.

Performing loan allowance
The performing loan allowance is estimated based on 12-month expected credit losses (ECL) for loans in Stage 1, while loans in Stage 2 require the recognition of lifetime ECL. The proportion of performing loans in Stage 2 at the end of the fourth quarter was 9%, compared to 34% last year and 7% last quarter. The decline in Stage 2 loans compared to last year was primarily due to an improvement in current and forecast macroeconomic conditions. The slight increase in Stage 2 loans from last quarter was primarily driven by our personal loans and mortgages portfolio. Due to the short duration of our personal loan and mortgage portfolio, a large proportion of these loans were originated in the last year when defaults and delinquencies were very low and the outlook for housing price growth was very robust. Compared to origination conditions, forecast housing price growth is lower, which is driving the Stage 2 increase, rather than a deterioration of borrower-specific credit quality. The relatively short duration of our loan portfolios limits the impact on our performing loan allowance when loans migrate from Stage 1 to Stage 2. Tangible security held and conservative loan-to-value ratios also decrease the overall sensitivity of our allowance for credit losses to changes in forecasted economic conditions.
The performing loan allowance of
In estimating the performing loan allowance, we continue to supplement our modeled ECL to reflect expert credit judgments. These expert credit judgments account for the variability in the results provided by the models and consider the lagging impacts of typical credit cycles, where loan defaults occur in periods subsequent to the onset of a decline in macroeconomic conditions. These expert credit judgments also allow us to incorporate the estimated impact of the evolving levels of government stimulus and support programs, which cannot be modelled using historical data as they have not occurred in the past.

Provision for credit losses
The fourth quarter provision for credit losses on total loans as a percentage of average loans represented a 12 basis point recovery, compared to charges of 26 basis points last year and 11 basis points last quarter. On an annual basis, the provision for credit losses on total loans represented nine basis points of average loans, down from 32 basis points last year and well below our normal historical range of 18 to 23 basis points.

Quarterly write-offs fluctuate as loans become impaired and are subsequently resolved. Write-offs increased compared to last quarter reflecting the increase in resolutions of impaired loans, which resulted in the realization of previously recognized provisions for credit losses. Our approach to managing credit risk has proven to be very effective and on an annual basis, we recognized write-offs of 19 basis points as a percentage of average loans, below our five-year average of 20 basis points.

We continue to deliver on our funding diversification strategy. Our teams grew relationship-based, branch-raised deposits by 16%, which now represent 64% of total deposits, up from 61% last year. Branch-raised deposit growth was generated in demand and notice products, and reflects our franchise building strategy to expand our full-service client relationships. Demand and notice deposits increased 26% and now account for 48% of total deposits, compared to 42% last year.
Capital market deposits increased 22% from last year, as we capitalized on strong debt market conditions through five senior deposit note issuances, and represented 15% of total deposits, up from 13% in the prior year.
Very strong branch-raised deposit growth resulted in a 10% decline in broker-sourced deposits, which now represent 21% of total deposits, compared to 26% last year. While our preference is to raise relationship-based branch-raised deposits, the broker deposit market continues to be a deep and efficient source to raise insured retail deposits and has proven to be a reliable and effective way to access funding and liquidity over a wide geographic base. We raise only fixed term broker deposits with terms to maturity between one and five years.

Capital Management
OSFI requires Canadian financial institutions to manage and report regulatory capital in accordance with the Basel III capital management framework. We currently report regulatory capital ratios using the Standardized approach for calculating risk-weighted assets, which requires us to carry significantly more capital for certain credit exposures compared to requirements under the AIRB methodology. For this reason, regulatory capital ratios of banks that utilize the Standardized approach are not directly comparable with the large Canadian banks and other financial institutions that utilize the AIRB methodology. Our required minimum regulatory capital ratios, including a 250 basis point capital conservation buffer, are 7.0% common equity Tier 1 (CET1), 8.5% Tier 1 and 10.5% Total capital.
