TORONTO, Nov. 30, 2021 /CNW/ - Scotiabank reported net income of $9,955 million for the fiscal year 2021, compared with net income of $6,853 million in 2020. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $7.70, compared to $5.30 in the previous year. Return on equity was 14.7%, compared to 10.4% in the previous year.

Adjusted net income⁽²⁾ was $10,169 million, up from $6,961 million in the previous year, and EPS was $7.87 versus $5.36 in the previous year.

Reported net income for the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2021 was $2,559 million compared to $1,899 million in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share were $1.97, compared to $1.42 in the same period a year ago.

Adjusted net income⁽²⁾ for the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2021 was $2,716 million and EPS was $2.10, up from $1.45 last year. Adjusted return on equity was 15.6% compared to 11.3% a year ago.

"We ended the year with strong fourth quarter earnings and exceeded our medium-term financial targets in fiscal 2021. Our diversified business model demonstrated its resilience through the pandemic, and the Bank is well positioned to achieve its full earnings power in the upcoming year. I am extremely proud of how the Scotiabank team supported our clients, customers and communities as they continued to navigate through the challenges of the pandemic, while also continuing to stay focused on creating long-term sustainable value for our shareholders. As we close out 2021, it is clear that our sharpened footprint and our significant investments in our digital capabilities have positioned the Bank for a very bright future," said Brian Porter, President and CEO of Scotiabank. The Bank was also recently recognized for outstanding leadership in the Global Finance 2021 Sustainable Finance Awards for its efforts to support clients with industry-leading advice and expertise to help achieve strong business growth that is environmentally and socially responsible.

Canadian Banking generated adjusted earnings of $4,171 million in 2021, an increase of 60% compared to the prior year. The increase was due primarily to lower provision for credit losses and higher revenues driven by non-interest income and strong loan growth. During the year, Scotiabank received the #1 ranking in the J.D. Power 2021 Canada Online Banking Satisfaction Study for the second year in a row.

Global Wealth Management reported adjusted earnings of $1,592 million in 2021, up 23% compared to the prior year. The higher earnings were driven by strong results across both Canadian Advisory and Asset Management businesses.

Global Banking and Markets delivered another strong year with earnings of $2,075 million. This performance was driven by solid performance across the business, prudent expense management and lower provision for credit losses.

International Banking earnings improved through 2021 generating adjusted earnings of $1,855 million, an increase of 62% compared to the prior year. This was driven by strong commercial and secured lending loan growth, prudent expense management supported by accelerated customer adoption of digital channels and lower provision for loan losses, driven by improved credit outlook.

With a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.3% the Bank remains well capitalized to support its strategic growth plans and return capital back to shareholders. This quarter we announced a 10 cent increase in the quarterly dividend to $1.00 per common share, 11% higher than a year ago.

"As we look forward to 2022, we expect to deliver strong growth across all our business lines, with optionality and multiple avenues to grow," said Brian Porter, President and CEO, Scotiabank.

(1)	Refer to page 141 of the Management's Discussion & Analysis in the Bank's 2021 Annual Report, available on www.sedar.com, for an explanation of the composition of the measure. Such explanation is incorporated by reference hereto.
(2)	Refer to Non-GAAP Measures section on page 3.
(3)	This measure has been disclosed in this document in accordance with OSFI Guideline - Capital Adequacy Requirements (November 2018).

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 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 defined below.

Adjusted results and diluted earnings per share

The following table presents a reconciliation of GAAP Reported financial results to Non-GAAP Adjusted financial results. The financial results have been adjusted for the following:

1.	Adjustments impacting current and prior periods:

	A.	Amortization of Acquisition-related intangible assets: These costs relate to the amortization of intangibles recognized upon the acquisition of businesses and are recorded in the Canadian Banking, International Banking and Global Wealth Management operating segments.

	B.	Restructuring and other provisions, recorded in Q4, 2021: The Bank recorded a restructuring charge of $126 million pre-tax, substantially related to International Banking for the cost of reducing branches and full time employees, driven by the accelerated customer adoption of digital channels and process automation. These efficiencies are a result of the Bank's commitment to simplify processes and optimize distribution channels to run businesses more effectively while meeting changing customer needs. This charge was recorded in the Other operating segment.
		The Bank recorded settlement and litigation provisions in the amount of $62 million pre-tax in the Other operating segment in connection with the Bank's former metals business.

2.	Adjustments impacting prior periods only:

	A.	Acquisition and divestiture-related amounts, which are defined as follows:

		i.	Acquisition-related integration costs – Includes costs that were incurred and related to integrating previously acquired businessess. These costs were recorded in the Canadian Banking, International Banking and Global Wealth Management operating segments. 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)
		ii.	Net (gain)/loss on divestitures – The Bank announced a number of divestitures in accordance with its strategy to reposition the Bank. The net (gain)/loss on divestitures is recorded in the Other operating segment (refer to Note 37 of the Bank's 2021 Annual Report to Shareholders for further details): Operations in British Virgin Islands (closed Q3, 2020) Equity-accounted investment in Thanachart Bank, Thailand (closed Q1, 2020) Colfondos AFP, Colombia (closed Q1, 2020) Operations in Puerto Rico and USVI (closed Q1, 2020) Insurance and banking operations in El Salvador (closed Q1, 2020) Banking operations in the Caribbean: Anguilla, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Maarten, St. Vincent & the Grenadines (closed Q4, 2019) Insurance and pension operations in the Dominican Republic (closed Q2, 2019)
		iii.	Day 1 provision for credit losses on acquired performing financial instruments, as required by IFRS 9. The accounting 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 provision for 2019 relates to Banco Cencosud, Peru and Banco Dominicano del Progreso, Dominican Republic.

	B.	Valuation-related adjustments, recorded in Q1, 2020: The Bank modified its allowance for credit losses measurement methodology by adding an additional, more severe pessimistic scenario, consistent with developing practice among major international banks in applying IFRS 9, and the Bank's prudent approach to expected credit loss provisioning. The modification resulted in an increase in provision for credit losses of $155 million which was recorded in Canadian Banking, International Banking, Global Wealth Management and Global Banking and Markets operating segments. The Bank enhanced its fair value methodology primarily relating to uncollateralized OTC derivatives which resulted in a pre-tax charge of $116 million. This charge was recorded in the Global Banking and Markets and Other operating segments. The Bank also recorded an impairment loss in the Other operating segment of $44 million pre-tax, related to one software asset.

Reconciliation of International Banking's reported and adjusted results and constant dollar results

International Banking business segment results are analyzed on a constant dollar basis. Under the constant dollar basis, prior period amounts are recalculated using current period average foreign currency rates. The following table presents the reconciliation between reported and adjusted and constant dollar results for International Banking for prior periods. The Bank believes that constant dollar is useful for readers in assessing ongoing business performance. The tables below are computed on a basis that is different than the table "Impact of foreign currency translation" on page 16.

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.

The Bank attributes capital to its business lines on a basis that approximates 10.5% of Basel III common equity capital requirements which includes credit, market and operational risks and leverage inherent within each business segment.

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.

Adjusted return on equity represents adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders as a percentage of adjusted average common shareholders' equity.

Productivity ratio

Management uses the productivity ratio as a measure of the Bank's efficiency. This ratio represents operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue. A lower ratio indicates improved productivity.

Adjusted productivity ratio represents adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of adjusted total revenue.

Operating leverage

This financial metric measures the rate of growth in total revenue less the rate of growth in operating expenses.

Adjusted operating leverage represents the rate of growth in adjusted total revenue less the rate of growth in adjusted operating expenses.

Provision for credit losses as a % of average net loans and acceptances

The ratio represents provision for credit losses (PCL) expressed as a % of average net loans and acceptances.

Adjusted provision for credit losses as a % of average net loans and acceptances represents adjusted PCL expressed as a % of average net loans and acceptances.

Effective tax rate

The effective tax rate is the overall tax rate paid by the Bank on its earned income. The effective tax rate is calculated by dividing the Bank's income tax expenses by the income before taxes.

Adjusted effective tax rate is calculated by dividing adjusted income tax expenses by the adjusted income before taxes.

Taxable equivalent basis

The Bank analyzes its trading-related revenue on a taxable equivalent basis (TEB). This methodology grosses up tax-exempt income earned on certain securities reported in either net interest income or non-interest income to an equivalent before tax basis. Management believes that this basis for measurement provides a uniform comparability of net interest income and non-interest income arising from both taxable and non-taxable sources and facilitates a consistent basis of measurement. While other banks also use TEB, their methodology may not be comparable to the Bank's methodology.

Group Financial Performance

Net income

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

Net income was $2,559 million compared to $1,899 million. Adjusted net income was $2,716 million compared to $1,938 million, up 40%, due mainly to lower provision for credit losses as a result of a more favourable credit and macroeconomic outlook.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

Net income was $2,559 million compared to $2,542 million. Adjusted net income was $2,716 million compared to $2,560 million, up 6%, due mainly to lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by lower revenues.

Total revenue

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

Revenues were $7,687 million, an increase of $182 million or 2%, due mainly to higher non-interest income, partially offset by lower net interest income.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

Revenues were $7,687 million, a decrease of $70 million or 1%, due mainly to lower non-interest income.

Net interest income

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

Net interest income was $4,217 million, a decrease of $41 million or 1%. Strong mortgage and commercial loan growth was more than offset by the 3% negative impact of foreign currency translation, lower corporate and unsecured lending balances, and margin compression.

The net interest margin was down five basis points to 2.17%, driven primarily by lower margins in International and Canadian Banking related to changes in business mix and the impact of central bank rate cuts in 2020, partly offset by decreased levels of high quality, lower-margin liquid assets.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

Net interest income was in line with the prior quarter. Loan growth across all business lines was offset by lower margins and the negative impact of foreign currency translation.

The net interest margin of 2.17% was down six basis points due primarily to a lower contribution from asset/liability management activities, as well as lower margins driven by changes in business mix.

Non-interest income

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

Non-interest income was $3,470 million, up $223 million or 7%. This was due mainly to higher banking and wealth management revenues, income from associated corporations, and higher investment gains. These were partly offset by lower fixed income trading revenues.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

Non-interest income was down $70 million or 2%. This was due mainly to lower trading revenues and underwriting and advisory fees, which were partially offset by higher income from associated corporations, wealth management revenues, and insurance income.

Provision for credit losses

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

The provision for credit losses was $168 million, compared to $1,131 million, a decrease of $963 million or 85%. The provision for credit losses ratio decreased 63 basis points to 10 basis points.

The provision for credit losses on performing loans was a net reversal of $343 million, a decrease of $639 million. Retail provisions decreased by $364 million, while commercial and corporate loan provisions decreased by $275 million across all business lines. These decreases were driven by the more favourable credit and macroeconomic outlook.

The provision for credit losses on impaired loans was $511 million, compared to $835 million, a decrease of $324 million or 39%, due primarily to lower retail provisions driven by lower credit migration across markets. Commercial and corporate loan provisions decreased $96 million across all business lines driven by lower formations. The provision for credit losses ratio on impaired loans was 31 basis points, a decrease of 23 basis points.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

The provision for credit losses was $168 million, compared to $380 million, a decrease of $212 million. The provision for credit losses ratio decreased 14 basis points to 10 basis points.

The provision for credit losses on performing loans was a net reversal of $343 million, compared to a net reversal of $461 million last quarter. Approximately $320 million of the provision reversals this quarter was due to reduction of allowances built in the prior year, reflecting the improvement in credit quality and more favourable macroeconomic outlook. The remaining reversal of $23 million was due to credit migration, the majority of which was to impaired loans in the retail portfolio, mainly in International Banking.

The provision for credit losses on impaired loans was $511 million, compared to $841 million, a decrease of $330 million or 39%, due primarily to lower retail provisions, mainly in International Banking, driven by lower credit migration. The provision for credit losses ratio on impaired loans was 31 basis points, a decrease of 22 basis points.

Non-interest expenses

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

Non-interest expenses were $4,271 million, up $214 million or 5% including $188 million related to restructuring and other provisions. Adjusted non-interest expenses of $4,058 million increased 1%. The increase was due to higher performance-based compensation, professional fees, advertising and technology-related costs to support business growth. Partly offsetting were the positive impact of foreign currency translation, lower personnel and premises costs.

The productivity ratio was 55.6% compared to 54.1%. On an adjusted basis, the productivity ratio was 52.8% compared to 53.3%.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

Non-interest expenses were up $174 million or 4% including $188 million related to restructuring and other provisions. Adjusted non-interest expenses were in line with prior quarter. Lower performance-based compensation and other employee benefits expenses were offset by increases in advertising and business development, professional fees and share-based compensation expenses.

The productivity ratio was 55.6% compared to 52.8%. On an adjusted basis, the productivity ratio was 52.8% compared to 52.5%.

Provision for income taxes

Q4 2021 vs Q4 2020

The effective tax rate was 21.2% compared to 18.0% in the same quarter last year. On an adjusted basis, the effective tax rate was 21.5% compared to 18.2% due primarily to changes in business and earnings mix across jurisdictions.

Q4 2021 vs Q3 2021

The effective tax rate was 21.2% compared to 22.5% in the previous quarter. On an adjusted basis, the effective tax rate was 21.5% compared to 22.5% in the previous quarter due primarily to changes in business and earnings mix across jurisdictions.

Capital Ratios

The Bank continues to maintain strong, high quality capital levels which position it well for future business growth and strategic initiatives. The CET1 ratio as at October 31, 2021 was 12.3%, an increase of approximately 50 basis points from the prior year due primarily to strong internal capital generation and the impact from the remeasurement of the employee pension and post-retirement obligations, partly offset by growth in risk-weighted assets, primarily retail mortgages, personal and business lending, a lower CET1 inclusion from declines in Stage 1 and Stage 2 expected credit losses (ECL), OSFI's reversal of its temporary reduction in the SVaR multiplier, and the impact from foreign currency translation on capital requirements. At year end, the CET1 ratio included a benefit of six basis points (October 31, 2020 – 30 basis points) from OSFI transitional adjustment for the partial inclusion of increases in Stage 1 and Stage 2 expected credit losses (ECL) relative to their pre-crisis baseline levels as at January 31, 2020.

The Bank's Tier 1 capital ratio was 13.9% as at October 31, 2021, an increase of approximately 60 basis points from the prior year, due primarily to the issuance of $1.25 billion and USD $600 million of Tier 1 qualifying Limited Recourse Capital Notes (LRCN), and the above noted impacts to the CET1 capital ratio, partly offset by the redemptions of $850 million of Basel III compliant NVCC preferred shares, a redemption of $409 million of non-qualifying preferred shares, and other regulatory adjustments.

The Total capital ratio was 15.9% as at October 31, 2021, an increase of approximately 40 basis points from 2020, due primarily to the above noted changes to the Tier 1 capital ratio, partly offset by the redemption of $750 million of subordinated debentures and other regulatory adjustments to Tier 2 capital.

The Leverage ratio was 4.8%, an increase of approximately 10 basis points in 2021 as higher Tier 1 capital was partly offset by growth in the Bank's on and off-balance sheet assets.

The Bank's capital ratios continue to be well in excess of OSFI's minimum capital ratio requirements for 2021 of 10.5%, 12.0% and 14.0% for CET1, Tier 1 and Total Capital, respectively. The Bank was well above the OSFI minimum Leverage ratio as at October 31, 2021.

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, 2021 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, 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 2021 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, and the extent to which products or services previously sold by the Bank require the Bank to incur liabilities or absorb losses not contemplated at their origination; 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; climate change and other environmental and social risks, including sustainability that may arise, including from the Bank's business activities; the occurrence of natural and unnatural catastrophic events and claims resulting from such events; the emergence of widespread health emergencies or pandemics, including the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the global economy, financial market conditions and the Bank's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects; 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 2021 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 2021 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.
