TORONTO - TD Bank Group (NYSE:TD) reported better-than-expected fourth quarter earnings and revenue on Thursday.
TD Bank shares were up 0.47% in pre-market trading following the earnings release.
The Canadian banking giant posted adjusted earnings per share of C$1.72, beating analyst estimates of C$1.99. Revenue came in at C$15.51 billion, well above the consensus forecast of C$13.23 billion.
"Despite a challenging quarter, we are pleased with the Bank’s underlying fundamentals, which were reflected in our revenue growth. This quarter, we delivered higher fee income in our markets-related businesses, volume growth in Canada, and stable deposits in the U.S.," said Bharat Masrani, Group President and CEO of TD Bank Group.
Net income for the quarter was C$3.64 billion, up 26.8% compared to the same period last year. The bank said revenue growth was driven by higher net interest income and non-interest income across its business segments.
TD’s Canadian Personal and Commercial Banking division saw net income rise 9% year-over-year to C$1.82 billion, reflecting higher revenue partially offset by increased expenses and provisions for credit losses.
The U.S. Retail segment reported net income of C$863 million, down 32% from last year, as higher credit losses and expenses more than offset revenue growth.
Looking ahead, TD said fiscal 2025 will be a transition year as it prioritizes investments to meet regulatory commitments. The bank expects elevated risk and control expenses to negatively impact earnings in fiscal 2025.
