Financial Highlights of 2022 (compared to 2021)

• Loan growth of 9%, including 11% growth in Ontario, which reflects the continued execution against our geographic diversification objectives, and 14% in the general commercial loan portfolio as we executed on our strategic focus of expanding full-service client opportunities. • Branch-raised deposit growth of 8%, as strong growth from new full-service clients was partially dampened by reductions in the deposit balances of other clients. • Common shareholders’ net income of $31 0 million was down 5%, and diluted earnings per common share was down 9%, primarily driven by an increase in the provision for credit losses on performing loans. • Pre-tax, pre-provision income of $522 million was up 1%. • Total revenue increased 6% and reflected a 5% increase in net interest income and a 10% increase in non-interest income. • Efficiency ratio increased to 51.5% compared to 49.1% as expense growth outpaced revenue growth as we made several strategic investments this year, which will benefit revenue growth in future periods. • Provision for credit losses on total loans as a percentage of average loans of 14 basis points was five basis points higher than last year primarily due to an increase in the performing loan provision, reflecting a deterioration in the forward-looking macroeconomic outlook, compared to a recovery recognized in the prior year. • Provision for credit losses on impaired loans of ten basis points was down seven basis points from last year. Gross impaired loans represented 0.46% of gross loans, down from 0.61% last year and reflect historically low levels. • Basel III regulatory capital ratios under the Standardized approach for calculating risk-weighted assets of 8.8% common equity Tier 1 (CET1), 10.6% Tier 1 and 12.1% Total capital were relatively stable compared to the prior year.
