Scotiabank reports second quarter earnings of more than $1.5 billion with ...

TORONTO, May 31 /CNW/ - Scotiabank today reported second quarter income of $1,543 million. Diluted earnings per share were $1.36. Return on equity remained strong at 22.9%. This quarter, the Bank benefitted from the recognition of gains of $286 million related to two recent acquisitions, pursuant to certain new Canadian accounting standards which require all acquisitions to be recorded at fair value. These gains amounted to 26 cents per share. Excluding these gains, diluted earnings per share were $1.10, compared to $1.02 in the same period a year ago and return on equity was 18.5%. A dividend of 52 cents per common share was announced.

"This was a solid quarter with good performance across our four business lines, with record revenues even without the one-time gains," said Rick Waugh, Scotiabank President and CEO. "Our proven, straightforward business model is well-diversified and, together with our strong risk management practices and culture of expense control, continues to deliver sustainable growth in Canada and internationally.

"With net income of $444 million, Canadian Banking had a good quarter. Strong competitive pricing pressures impacted margins but we were successful at offsetting these with volume and market share increases in our key products. Scotiabank experienced market share gains in residential mortgages, small business, personal deposits and sales of mutual funds through our delivery channels. The increase in mutual funds and creditor insurance sold through our branches demonstrates successful collaboration with the wealth management business line. Strong expense controls and a decrease in provisions for credit losses also contributed to these results.

"International Banking's business with net income of $402 million, has seen good growth over the last quarter, particularly in the commercial lending platform. It has also benefitted from widening margins in certain key markets. In addition, recent acquisitions continue to provide a meaningful contribution to overall results.

"Global Wealth Management completed the acquisition of DundeeWealth this quarter and with this strategic addition, achieved a significant milestone, surpassing $100 billion in assets under management. Our combined businesses in Canada were ranked second in mutual fund market share among banks and first in total net sales for the industry in the quarter.
