Core business performance

Canadian Personal and Business Banking⁽⁵⁾ reported net income of $734 million for the second quarter, up $28 million or 4% from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses and a higher provision for credit losses. The higher revenue was mainly driven by volume growth and a higher net interest margin. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings⁽¹⁾ were $1,387 million, up $140 million from the second quarter a year ago, as higher revenue was partially offset by higher adjusted⁽¹⁾non-interest expenses mainly due to higher spending on technology and other strategic initiatives and employee-related compensation.

For additional information, see the "Non-GAAP measures" section, including the quantitative reconciliations of reported GAAP measures to: adjusted non-interest expenses and adjusted net income on pages 3 to 7; and adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings on page 8.

Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management⁽¹⁾ reported net income of $549 million for the second quarter, up $61 million or 13% from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses and a higher provision for credit losses. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings⁽²⁾ were $807 million, up $101 million from the second quarter a year ago, as higher revenue was partially offset by higher non-interest expenses. Commercial banking revenue was higher compared to the prior year due to volume growth, higher loan and deposit margins, and higher fee income. In wealth management, the increase in revenue was due to higher fee-based revenue from higher average assets under administration (AUA) and assets under management (AUM) balances as a result of market appreciation, higher net interest income, and higher commission revenue from increased client activity. Expenses increased primarily due to higher performance-based and employee-related compensation, and higher spending on technology and other strategic initiatives.

U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management⁽¹⁾ reported net income of $173 million (US$122 million) for the second quarter, up $81 million (US$54 million) from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings⁽²⁾ were $333 million (US$234 million), up $43 million (US$20 million) from the second quarter a year ago, as higher adjusted⁽²⁾ non-interest expenses were more than offset by higher revenue. In commercial banking, higher revenue was primarily due to higher volumes. Higher revenue in wealth management was primarily due to higher fee-based revenue from higher average AUM balances from market appreciation. Adjusted⁽²⁾ non-interest expenses increased mainly due to higher performance-based and employee-related compensation, and higher spending on technology and other strategic initiatives.

Capital Markets⁽¹⁾ reported net income of $566 million for the second quarter, up $94 million or 20% from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses and a higher provision for credit losses. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings⁽²⁾ were up $240 million or 41% from the second quarter a year ago due to higher revenue from our global markets and corporate and investment banking businesses, partially offset by higher expenses. Global markets revenue was up driven by higher financing revenue, and higher trading revenue. Corporate and investment banking revenue was up driven by higher corporate banking revenue and higher debt underwriting activity. Expenses were up due to higher performance-based and employee-related compensation, and higher spending on technology and other strategic initiatives.

Credit quality

Provision for credit losses was $605 million, up $91 million from the same quarter last year. Provision for credit losses on performing loans was up primarily due to an unfavourable change in our economic outlook. Provision for credit losses on impaired loans was up due to higher provisions in Canadian Personal and Business Banking, Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, and Capital Markets, partially offset by lower provisions in U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management.

Key highlights across our bank in the second quarter of 2025 included:

Sustained momentum in the Wood Gundy client experience, achieving the highest internal Net Promoter Score to date, which underscores our unwavering commitment to client satisfaction.
CIBC Capital Markets was recognized by Global Finance for the third consecutive year as the Best Investment Bank in Canada.
CIBC Private Wealth, US, was awarded Best High Net-Worth Investment Platform for the third consecutive year; remains the most awarded firm in the industry in the last 15 years by Private Asset Management.
CIBC released its annual environmental, social and governance (ESG) disclosures that included the 2024 Sustainability Report and Public Accountability Statement, and the 2024 Climate Report, which provides a progress update on CIBC's ESG strategy and outlines how the bank is helping to drive positive change toward a more sustainable future.
CIBC reinforced its commitment to responsible AI by becoming the first major Canadian bank to sign the Government of Canada's Voluntary Code of Conduct on the Responsible Development and Management of Advanced Generative AI Systems.
CIBC was recognized as one of Canada's Greenest Employers by MediaCorp Canada Inc. for the fourth consecutive year.

Making a difference in our communities

At CIBC, we believe there should be no limits to ambition. We invest our time and resources to remove barriers to ambitions and demonstrate that when we come together, positive change happens that helps our communities thrive. This quarter:

Non-GAAP measures

We use a number of financial measures to assess the performance of our business lines as described below. Some measures are calculated in accordance with GAAP (International Financial Reporting Standards), while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP, and accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Investors may find these non-GAAP measures, which include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios as defined in National Instrument 52-112 "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure", useful in understanding how management views underlying business performance.

Management assesses results on a reported and adjusted basis and considers both as useful measures of performance. Adjusted measures, which include adjusted total revenue, adjusted provision for credit losses, adjusted non-interest expenses, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted income taxes, adjusted net income and adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings, remove items of note reported results to calculate our adjusted results. Adjusted measures represent non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP ratios include an adjusted measure as one or more of their components. Non-GAAP ratios include adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted efficiency ratio, adjusted operating leverage, adjusted dividend payout ratio, adjusted return on common shareholders' equity and adjusted effective tax rate.

Certain additional disclosures for these specified financial measures have been incorporated by reference and can be found in the "Non-GAAP measures" section of our Report to Shareholders for the second quarter of 2025 available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

A NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

From time to time, we make written or oral forward-looking statements within the meaning of certain securities laws, including in this news release, in other filings with Canadian securities regulators or the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, in other reports to shareholders, and in other communications. All such statements are made pursuant to the "safe harbour" provisions of, and are intended to be forward-looking statements under applicable Canadian and U.S. securities legislation, including the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our operations, business lines, financial condition, risk management, priorities, targets and sustainability commitments (including with respect to our 2050 net-zero ambition and our environmental, social and governance (ESG) related activities), ongoing objectives, strategies, the regulatory environment in which we operate and outlook for calendar year 2025 and subsequent periods. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "forecast", "target", "predict", "commit", "ambition", "goal", "strive", "project", "objective" and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "may", "should", "would" and "could". By their nature, these statements require us to make assumptions, and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific. Given the potential recession risks tied to the actual and proposed U.S. imposition of tariffs on Canada and other countries and their countermeasures, the continuing impact of hybrid work arrangements and high interest rates on the U.S. real estate sector, and the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East on the global economy, financial markets, and our business, results of operations, reputation and financial condition, there is inherently more uncertainty associated with our assumptions as compared to prior periods. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, affect our operations, performance and results, and could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. These factors include: trade policies and tensions, including tariffs; inflationary pressures in the U.S.; global supply-chain disruptions; geopolitical risk, including from the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, the occurrence, continuance or intensification of public health emergencies, such as the impact of post-pandemic hybrid work arrangements, and any related government policies and actions; credit, market, liquidity, strategic, insurance, operational, reputation, conduct and legal, regulatory and environmental risk; currency value and interest rate fluctuations, including as a result of market and oil price volatility; the effectiveness and adequacy of our risk management and valuation models and processes; legislative or regulatory developments in the jurisdictions where we operate, including the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Common Reporting Standard, and regulatory reforms in the United Kingdom and Europe, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's global standards for capital and liquidity reform, and those relating to bank recapitalization legislation and the payments system in Canada; amendments to, and interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions, and interest rate and liquidity regulatory guidance; exposure to, and the resolution of, significant litigation or regulatory matters, our ability to successfully appeal adverse outcomes of such matters and the timing, determination and recovery of amounts related to such matters; the effect of changes to accounting standards, rules and interpretations; changes in our estimates of reserves and allowances; changes in tax laws; changes to our credit ratings; political conditions and developments, including changes relating to economic or trade matters such as tariffs; the possible effect on our business of international conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, and terrorism; natural disasters, disruptions to public infrastructure and other catastrophic events; reliance on third parties to provide components of our business infrastructure; potential disruptions to our information technology systems and services; increasing cyber security risks, which may include theft or disclosure of assets, unauthorized access to sensitive information, or operational disruption; social media risk; losses incurred as a result of internal or external fraud; anti-money laundering; the accuracy and completeness of information provided to us concerning clients and counterparties; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to us and our affiliates or associates; intensifying competition from established competitors and new entrants in the financial services industry including through internet and mobile banking; technological change including the use of data and artificial intelligence in our business; global capital market activity; changes in monetary and economic policy; general business and economic conditions worldwide, as well as in Canada, the U.S. and other countries where we have operations, including increasing Canadian household debt levels and global credit risks; climate change and other ESG related risks including our ability to implement various sustainability-related initiatives internally and with our clients under expected time frames and our ability to scale our sustainable finance products and services; our success in developing and introducing new products and services, expanding existing distribution channels, developing new distribution channels and realizing increased revenue from these channels; changes in client spending and saving habits; our ability to attract and retain key employees and executives; our ability to successfully execute our strategies and complete and integrate acquisitions and joint ventures; the risk that expected benefits of an acquisition, merger or divestiture will not be realized within the expected time frame or at all; and our ability to anticipate and manage the risks associated with these factors. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of our forward-looking statements. These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Additional information about these factors can be found in the "Management of risk" section of our 2024 Annual Report, as updated by our quarterly reports. Any forward-looking statements contained in this news release represent the views of management only as of the date hereof and are presented for the purpose of assisting our shareholders and financial analysts in understanding our 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. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that is contained in this news release or in other communications except as required by law.
