Speaker #1: Thank you, Operator. Good morning and welcome to TD Bank Group's first quarter 2026 results presentation. We will begin today's presentation with remarks from Raymond Chun, the bank's CEO, followed by Leo Salom, Group Head U.S.

Speaker #1: Banking, after which Kelvin Tran, the bank's CFO, will present our first quarter operating results. Ajai Bambawale, Chief Risk Officer, will then offer comments on credit quality, after which we will invite questions from analysts on the phone.

Speaker #1: Also present today to answer your questions are Sona Mehta, Group Head Canadian Personal Banking, Barbara Hooper, Group Head Canadian Business Banking, Paul Clark, Group Head Wealth Management and Insurance, and Tim Wiggan, Group Head Wholesale Banking.

Speaker #1: Please turn to the next slide. Our comments during this call may contain forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and have inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially.

Speaker #1: I would also remind listeners that the bank uses non-GAAP financial measures to arrive at adjusted results. The bank believes that adjusted results. With a better understanding of how management views the bank's performance.

Speaker #1: Ray, Leo, and Kelvin will be referring to adjusted results. Additional information about non-GAAP measures and material factors and assumptions is available in our Q1 2026 MDNA.

Speaker #1: I would also like to note that effective this quarter, the bank renamed its U.S. retail segment to U.S. Banking to better reflect the segment's financial products and services.

Speaker #1: With that, let me turn the presentation over to Ray.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Brooke, and good morning, everyone. Thanks for joining us. We had another strong quarter, as we continue to demonstrate momentum across our strategic priorities.

Speaker #2: In Q1, the bank delivered a strong quarter with record earnings of $4.2 billion in EPS of $2.44, powering an ROE of 4.2%, up 100 basis points year over year.

Speaker #2: We saw robust trading and fee income growth in our markets-driven businesses, volume growth in Canadian P&C banking, and margin expansion. Impaired PCLs ticked up quarter over quarter in wholesale and U.S.

Speaker #2: commercial, reflecting a small number of borrowers across various industries. Overall, credit performance was in line with our expectations, we continue to expect fiscal 2026 PCLs to fall within a range of 40 to 50 basis points.

Speaker #2: Ajai will share more details shortly in his remarks. Our year-over-year expense growth continued to moderate this quarter, and we delivered positive operating leverage for the third consecutive quarter.

Speaker #2: We are on track to achieve our 3 to 4% expense growth target for fiscal 2026. The bank's Q1 CET1 ratio was 14.5%, with strong organic capital accretion in the quarter, in January we completed our $8 billion share buyback and launched our new $7 billion share buyback.

Speaker #2: As of the end of Q1, we had bought back approximately 84 million shares across these two buyback programs. We remain committed to consistently returning excess capital to our shareholders, we have conviction that TD's current share price does not fully reflect the bank's intrinsic value.

Speaker #2: TD has strong momentum, and we see considerable upside from here. Even with significant share buybacks, TD's robust organic capital accretion means it will take time for the bank to reach a 13% CET1 ratio.

Speaker #2: This is an enviable position for any bank. In a unique advantage for TD, we are managing towards a 13% CET1 ratio by the second half of fiscal 2027.

Speaker #2: Overall, we have momentum across our businesses as we continue to deliver on our strategies, to deepen relationships, make TD simpler and faster, and execute with discipline.

Speaker #2: We continue to see potential upside to our 6 to 8% EPS growth and 13% ROE targets for fiscal 2026, provided that positive macroeconomic conditions continue.

Now to summarize.

Speaker #1: Hey, thanks for taking my question. If we assume you reach 13% CT1 ratio by the end of 2027, and your cost savings continue to improve, and you achieve the earnings growth in your targets, I think my math suggests that you can get to that 16% ROE by the exit of 2027.

Speaker #1: Can you maybe talk about what factors might prevent you from getting there or whether it's just a matter of accounting for the unknown?

Speaker #3: Thanks, Matt. It's Ray. Thanks for the question. As I said at the end of our Q4 results, I mean, we are definitely seeing good momentum coming out of, first and foremost, fiscal 2025.

The bank, exhibits strong credit performance, this quarter as pcl's were within the guidance, offered at the end of last year. Additionally we remain prudently. Provisioned with allowance coverage of grass. Loans. At 99 basis points, including more than 500 million in reserve, set aside for ongoing, elevated policy, and trade uncertainty,

Speaker #3: And you saw that momentum carry through. And you're seeing that play through on our ROE at 14.2% after the first quarter. The way I would think about it, Matt, is on some of the things that we control, if you think about our CT1 ratio getting down to the 13% by the second half of 2020, 2027 as I commented in my comments, that gives us another 100 basis points.

Looking forward while results may vary by quarter and are subject to changes to economic conditions. We continue to expect fiscal 2026 pcls to fall within a range of 40 to 50 basis points.

If we assume you reach 13% CET1 ratio by the end of 2027, and your cost savings continue to improve, and you achieve the earnings growth in your target, I think my math suggests that you can get to that 16% ROE by the end of 2027. Can you maybe talk about what factors might prevent you from getting there, or whether it's just a matter of accounting for the unknown?

Speaker #3: So what I would say is that we're certainly as I said, even in our Q4 comments, we are ahead of pace as to what we thought during investor day.

The first question comes from Matthew Lee with Cano continuity. Please go ahead.

Speaker #3: And our confidence is high on getting to the 16% ROE that the guidance that we gave that's the way I would think about it.

Hey, thanks for taking my question. Um, if we assume you reached 13%, cet1 ratio by the end of 2027 and your cost savings, continue to improve, and you a the earnings growth in your targets.

Speaker #1: Okay, that's helpful. And then maybe just a quick one on the U.S. loan book. Total loans were down 9%, but core loans were up 2.

Speaker #1: Can you just maybe help us understand what the areas of focus are in terms of growing that book in the U.S.? And when we should start thinking about core loan growth being to outpace the identified sales and runoffs?

I think my math suggests that you can get to that 16% Roe by the exit of 2027. Um can you maybe talk about factors that might prevent you from getting there or whether it's just a matter of accounting for the unknown?

Raymond Chun: Thanks, Matthew Lee. It's Raymond Chun. Thanks for the question. As I said, at the end of our Q4 results, we are definitely seeing good momentum coming out of first and foremost, fiscal 2025. You saw that momentum carry through. You're seeing that play through on our ROE at 14.2% after the Q1. The way I would think about it, Matthew Lee, is on some of the things that we control. If you think about our CET1 ratio getting down to the 13% by the second half of 2026, 2027, as I commented in my comments, that gives us another 100 basis points. We are well on pace on our CAD 2 billion to CAD 2.5 billion expense takeout, and the discipline and the structural cost reduction.

Speaker #3: So Matt, thanks for the question. So if you look at the core loan growth for the quarter, it was 2%. If I can break that down for you, we saw really strong consumer lending growth as I prioritized in our investor day discussion.

Thanks, Matt. Uh, it's Ray. Thanks for the question. Um, as I said at the end of our Q4 results, I mean, the we are definitely seeing good momentum coming out of first and foremost, fiscal 2025. And you saw that momentum carry through,

Speaker #3: Our credit card book, particularly our bank card book, is a major area of focus for us. So just to give you a sense of the momentum that we've got, in that segment, we saw a 15% balance growth for the quarter unit sales were up 33% on a year-on-year basis.

Uh, and you're seeing that play through on our ROE at 14.2%. Uh, after the first quarter, the way I would think about it, uh, Matt, is on some of the things that we control. If you think about our CT1 ratio getting down to

Speaker #3: We used the term penetration rate as a critical indicator of the cards portfolio's success. And we saw it a 200 basis point increase in the penetration of credit cards to our deposit client base on a year-on-year basis.

Raymond Chun: We're actually a bit ahead of schedule, I would say, on the things that we're focused on. That gives us another 150 basis points pick up on that. If you look across our businesses for the quarter, every business at TD improved their ROE as per our Investor Day commitment. What I would say is that we're certainly, as I said, even in our Q4 comments, we are ahead of pace as to what we thought during Investor Day, and our confidence is high on getting to the 16% ROE, that the guidance that we gave. That's the way I would think about it.

Speaker #3: So we're making progress towards that plus 30% figure that we gave an investor day. And sales activities were strong coming out of the seasonal Christmas rush.

Speaker #3: So you put all those things together, we were pleased about our consumer lending growth anchored by that cards performance. On the commercial side, a bit more of a tale of two cities.

Speaker #3: At the higher end, at the corporate mid-market business, we're seeing relatively good activity in loan demand. So our mid-market business, we saw 4% growth.

Matthew Lee: Okay, that's helpful. Maybe just a quick one on the US loan book. Total loans were down 9%, but core loans are up 2%. Can you just maybe help us understand what the areas of focus are in terms of growing that book in the US, and when we should start thinking about core loan growth beginning to outpace the identified sales and runoffs?

Speaker #3: And Ray, I think, commented in his comments, we saw 15% growth in actual commitment. So the pipelines look good at the top end of the market or at the larger corporate end of the market.

The 13% by the second half of 20206 2027 as as I commented in my comments that gives us another 100 basis points. Uh, we are well on Pace on our 2 billion to 2 and a half billion expense takeout and the discipline and the structural cost reduction. Uh we're actually a bit ahead of schedule. I would say on the things that we're we're focused on that gives us another 150 basis points pick up on that. And so, and if you look at our businesses, uh, for the quarter, every business at TD, uh, improved their Roe as per our investor day commitment. So, what I would say is that that we're certainly, uh, as I said, even in our Q4 comments, uh, we are ahead of pace as to what we thought during investor day. Uh, and our confidence is high on getting to the 16th Roe that the guidance that we gave. That's the way I would think about it.

Speaker #3: Likewise, in our specialty business, higher education, which is a really important segment for us, we saw loan growth of about 5%. So at the higher end, we're seeing good loan demand.

Leo: Matt, thanks for the question. If you look at the core loan growth for the quarter, it was 2%. If I can break that down for you, we saw really strong consumer lending growth. As I prioritized in our Investor Day discussion, our credit card book, particularly our bank card book, is a major area of focus for us. Just to give you a sense of the momentum that we've got in that segment, we saw a 15% balance growth for the quarter. Unit sales were up 33% on a year-over-year basis. We use the term penetration rate as a critical indicator of the cards portfolio success, and we saw at a 200 basis point increase in the penetration of credit cards to our deposit client base on a year-over-year basis.

Leo Salom: Matt, thanks for the question. If you look at the core loan growth for the quarter, it was 2%. If I can break that down for you, we saw really strong consumer lending growth. As I prioritized in our Investor Day discussion, our credit card book, particularly our bank card book, is a major area of focus for us. Just to give you a sense of the momentum that we've got in that segment, we saw a 15% balance growth for the quarter. Unit sales were up 33% on a year-over-year basis. We use the term penetration rate as a critical indicator of the cards portfolio success, and we saw at a 200 basis point increase in the penetration of credit cards to our deposit client base on a year-over-year basis.

Okay, that's helpful. And then maybe just a quick 1 on the US loan book. Uh, total loans were down 9%, but core loans are up to. Uh, can you just maybe help us understand what the areas of focus are in terms of growing that book in the US? And when we should start thinking about core loan, growth being able to outpace, uh, the identified sales and runoffs.

Speaker #3: And the economic momentum in the U.S. is translating into good loan growth. Where we're seeing a little bit of sluggishness in the U.S. market broadly, is at the small business and sort of lower-end community banking level.

So, Matt, thanks for the question. Um,

Speaker #3: That segment's growing a little slower. And I think that those businesses are just more susceptible to the trade uncertainty, the supply chain disruptions, and just the current state of interest rates.

Speaker #3: So I think there, we're still seeing some muted growth. But when you take everything as a whole, I'm quite pleased with the 2% growth on balance.

Speaker #3: I would expect that growth rate to moderately accelerate over the next couple of quarters. And we should, to your point around when should the entire portfolio switch over to a net growth position, we are targeting that in the third quarter, total loans so that would include the those loans that have been identified for runoff, we would actually post net loan growth at the aggregate bank level in the U.S.

Leo: We're making progress towards that plus 30% figure that we gave at Investor Day. And sales activities were strong coming out of the seasonal, you know, Christmas rush. You put all those things together, we were pleased about our consumer lending growth, anchored by that cards performance. On the commercial side, a bit of more of a tale of two cities. At the higher end, at the corporate mid-market business, we're seeing relatively good activity and loan demand. Our mid-market business, we saw 4% growth. And Ray then commented in his comments, we saw 15% growth in actual commitment. The pipelines look good at the larger corporate end of the market.

Leo Salom: We're making progress towards that plus 30% figure that we gave at Investor Day. And sales activities were strong coming out of the seasonal, you know, Christmas rush. You put all those things together, we were pleased about our consumer lending growth, anchored by that cards performance. On the commercial side, a bit of more of a tale of two cities. At the higher end, at the corporate mid-market business, we're seeing relatively good activity and loan demand. Our mid-market business, we saw 4% growth. And Ray then commented in his comments, we saw 15% growth in actual commitment. The pipelines look good at the larger corporate end of the market.

Loan growth for the quarter. It was, uh, 2%. If I could break that down for you. We saw really strong consumer lending. Uh, growth as I as I prioritized in our our investor day discussion. Um, our credit card book, particularly our bank card book is a major area of focus for. So, Jus just to give you a sense of the momentum that we've got in that segment. We saw 15% balanced growth, um, for the quarter uh unit sales were up 33% on a year-on-year basis. We use the term penetration rate as a critical indicator of the cards portfolio of success and we saw it a 200 basis point increase in the penetration of credit cards to our deposit client base on a year-on-year basis. So we're making progress towards that plus 30%, figure, that we gave an investor day, uh, and and sales activities were strong coming out of the seasonal, uh, you know, Christmas rush. So you put all those things together. We were pleased about our consumer, lending growth anchored by that card's performance, on the commercial side of business.

More of a Tale 2 cities.

Speaker #1: All right, that's great, Color. I'll pass the line.

Speaker #3: Thanks, Matt.

Speaker #2: Thank you. The next question comes from Gabriel Dechaine with National Bank Financial. Please go ahead.

At the higher end at the corporate mid-market business. We're seeing relatively good activity in loan demand. So our mid-market business, we saw 4% growth

Speaker #4: Yeah, I just got a quick one here on credit performance because we saw the impaireds going and performing going at a different direction here.

Leo: Likewise, in our specialty business, higher education, which is a really important segment for us, we saw loan growth of about 5%. At the higher end, we're seeing good loan demand and the economic momentum in the US is translating into good loan growth. Where we're seeing a little bit of sluggishness in the US market broadly is at the small business and sort of lower-end community banking level. That segment's growing a little slower, and I think that those businesses are just more susceptible to the trade uncertainty, the supply chain disruptions, and just the current state of interest rates. I think there, we're still seeing some muted growth, but when you take everything as a whole, I'm quite pleased with the 2% growth on balance.

Leo Salom: Likewise, in our specialty business, higher education, which is a really important segment for us, we saw loan growth of about 5%. At the higher end, we're seeing good loan demand and the economic momentum in the US is translating into good loan growth. Where we're seeing a little bit of sluggishness in the US market broadly is at the small business and sort of lower-end community banking level. That segment's growing a little slower, and I think that those businesses are just more susceptible to the trade uncertainty, the supply chain disruptions, and just the current state of interest rates. I think there, we're still seeing some muted growth, but when you take everything as a whole, I'm quite pleased with the 2% growth on balance.

Speaker #4: And you did a good job explaining what was going on in the impaired book. And your expectations going forward, just wondering about the performing release.

Speaker #4: I guess part of it is the U.S. some runoff, but what macro changes did you make that might have resulted in these pretty material releases?

Speaker #3: Yeah, I know. Thanks, Gabe, for the question. So again, I'd start by saying our performance release, it's well-founded, and it's been through all our governance processes.

Speaker #3: And there are really two drivers of that release. One is the macro changes. And if you go and look at our disclosures, you'll see the unemployment numbers have improved both Canada and the United States.

Leo: I would expect that growth rate to moderately accelerate over the next couple quarters. We should, to your point around when should the entire portfolio switch over to a net growth position, we are targeting that in Q3, total loans, so that would include the those loans that have been identified for runoff, we would actually post net loan growth at the aggregate bank level in the US.

Leo Salom: I would expect that growth rate to moderately accelerate over the next couple quarters. We should, to your point around when should the entire portfolio switch over to a net growth position, we are targeting that in Q3, total loans, so that would include the those loans that have been identified for runoff, we would actually post net loan growth at the aggregate bank level in the US.

Speaker #3: And you'll see the GDP numbers have also improved. That drove part of the release. The second part actually, don't even think about it as a release.

Speaker #3: We built performing against names that were migrating. When that loan moves from performing to impaired, I have to reverse the performance. And add it to the impaired.

Speaker #3: So those are the two component parts. But again, as I said, it's well-founded.

Kelvin Tran: All right, that's great color. I'll pass the line.

Matthew Lee: All right, that's great color. I'll pass the line.

Speaker #4: All right, thanks.

Segments growing a little slower and I think that those, those businesses are just more susceptible to the trade uncertainty that the supply chain disruptions and just the the, the current state of interest rates. So I think their, we're still seeing some muted growth. But when you take everything as a whole, I'm quite pleased with the 2%, uh, growth on balance. I would expect that growth rate to to moderately accelerate over the next couple quarters. Um, and and we should to your point around when, when should the entire portfolio, uh, switch over to to a net growth position. We are targeting that in the third quarter total loans so that would include the the those loans that have been identified for runoff, uh we would actually post net loan. Growth at the aggregate Bank level uh, in the US

Leo: Thanks, Matt.

Leo Salom: Thanks, Matt.

All right, that's great caller. I'll pass the line.

Speaker #2: Thank you. The next question comes from Paul Holden with CIBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Operator: Thank you. The next question comes from Gabriel Dechaine with National Bank Financial. Please go ahead.

Thanks man.

Speaker #5: Thank you. Good morning. Two questions related to Leo's business. I guess first is with respect to the NIM expansion, 13 basis points this quarter.

Gabriel Dechaine: Yeah, I just got a quick one here on the credit performance because, you know, we saw the impaired going and performing, going in a different direction here. You did a good job explaining what was going on in the impaired book and your expectations going forward. Just wondering about, you know, the performing release. I guess part of it is the US, you know, some runoff, but, you know, what macro changes did you make that might have resulted in these pretty material releases?

Thank you. The next question comes from. Gabriel Dane with National Bank Financial. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Guidance for modest expansion next quarter. I think that was the same guidance we got this quarter. So what drove the upside this quarter and potential it follows through next quarter?

Speaker #5: And then second part of the question, with that good NIM expansion, with you talking about loan growth starting to improve and crossing over to positive, NQ3, and what I'm seeing good expense discipline, can we start to expect to see positive operating leverage and lower efficiency ratio out of the U.S.

Yeah, I I just got a quick 1 here on the credit performance because uh you know we saw the impaired, the going and Performing going at a different direction here. Uh and you did a good job explaining the what was going on in the impaired book and your expectations going forward, just wondering about, you know, the the Performing release I guess part of it is the US uh, you know, some runoff. But uh you know what, what macro changes did you make the

Ajay: Yeah, no, thanks, Gabe, for the question. Again, I'd start by saying our performance release, it's well-founded, and it's been through all our governance processes, and there are really two drivers of that release. One is the macro changes, and if you go and look at our disclosures, you'll see the unemployment numbers have improved, both Canada and the United States, and you'll see the GDP numbers have also improved. That drove part of the release. Okay. The second part, actually don't even think about it as a release, okay? We built performing against names that were migrating. When that loan moves from performing to impaired, I have to reverse the performance-

Ajai Bambawale: Yeah, no, thanks, Gabe, for the question. Again, I'd start by saying our performance release, it's well-founded, and it's been through all our governance processes, and there are really two drivers of that release. One is the macro changes, and if you go and look at our disclosures, you'll see the unemployment numbers have improved, both Canada and the United States, and you'll see the GDP numbers have also improved. That drove part of the release. Okay. The second part, actually don't even think about it as a release, okay? We built performing against names that were migrating. When that loan moves from performing to impaired, I have to reverse the performance-add it to the impaired. Those are the two component parts. Again, as I said, it's well-founded.

Made of resulted in these uh, pretty material releases.

Speaker #5: bank in 2026?

Speaker #3: So Paul, let me take both of those. And then maybe I'll give you a sort of a summary view on the aggregate U.S. performance.

Speaker #3: Let me start with the NIM, we delivered NIM of 338 basis points, up 13 basis points quarter on quarter, 52 basis points on a year-on-year basis.

Speaker #3: So obviously, a strong print. Really, three factors. One, the remaining impact of all the loan repositioning work that we did last year, which obviously gave us a strong tailwind.

Gabriel Dechaine: Yeah.

Ajay: add it to the impaired. Those are the two component parts. Again, as I said, it's well-founded.

Yeah, no, thanks—uh, Gabe, for the question. So, again, I'll start by saying a performance release: it's well founded, and it's been through all our governance processes. And there are really two drivers of that release. One is the macro changes, and if you go and look at our disclosures, you'll see the unemployment numbers have improved, both in Canada and the United States, and you see the GDP numbers have also improved—that drove part of the release. Okay. The second part, actually, don't even think about it as a release. Okay, we built performing against names that were migrating. When that loan moves from performing to impaired, I have to reverse the performance and add it to the impact. So those are the two components.

Component parts.

Speaker #3: Second, selective repricing activities across both the deposit and loan book as we adjust the overall balance sheet to its new size. And third, the tailwinds that we're enjoying from tractor-on rates.

Gabriel Dechaine: All right, thanks.

But again, as I said, it's it's well founded.

Uh, all right, thanks.

Operator: Thank you. The next question comes from Paul Holden with CIBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Speaker #3: So those were the three primary drivers. And that was offset ever so slightly by the repricing, by the Fed rate cut. As we look at the next period, I won't have quite as much tailwind from the bond repositioning activity because that's already reflected in our NI.

Leo: Thank you. Good morning. Two questions related to Leo's business. I guess first is with respect to the NIM expansion, 13 basis points this quarter, guidance for modest expansion next quarter. I think that was the same guidance we got this quarter. What drove the upside this quarter and potential it follows through next quarter? Second part of the question, with that good NIM expansion, with you talking about, you know, loan growth starting to improve and crossing over to positive in Q3, and what I'm seeing, good expense discipline. Can we start to expect to see positive operating leverage and lower efficiency ratio out of the US Bank in 2026?

Paul Holden: Thank you. Good morning. Two questions related to Leo's business. I guess first is with respect to the NIM expansion, 13 basis points this quarter, guidance for modest expansion next quarter. I think that was the same guidance we got this quarter. What drove the upside this quarter and potential it follows through next quarter? Second part of the question, with that good NIM expansion, with you talking about, you know, loan growth starting to improve and crossing over to positive in Q3, and what I'm seeing, good expense discipline. Can we start to expect to see positive operating leverage and lower efficiency ratio out of the US Bank in 2026?

Thank you. The next question comes from Paul Holden with CIBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Thank you, good morning. Um, 2 questions, related to uh Leo's uh business, I guess.

Speaker #3: But I still think that we'll have margin expansion opportunities. There'll be more modest in nature. And then as we think about the rest of the year, obviously, that tractor tailwind will still be there, but we'll have to absorb the Fed rate cuts that are planned for the second half of the year.

Speaker #3: So that's basically, in a nutshell, where we think overall NI is going to be. But as you saw, the net interest income number on an absolute basis from a revenue perspective was up 10% year on year.

Speaker #3: So we're really pleased with the momentum that we're seeing there in aggregate. With regards to overall loan performance, or the state of the business broadly, I couldn't be more pleased with the quarter.

Leo: Paul Holden, let me take both of those, and then maybe I'll give you a sort of a summary view on the aggregate US performance. Let me start with the NIM. We delivered a NIM of 338 basis points, up 13 basis points quarter-on-quarter, 52 basis points on a year-on-year basis. Obviously a strong print. Really three factors. One, the remaining impact of all the loan repositioning work that we did last year, which obviously gave us, you know, a strong tailwind. Second, selective repricing activities across both the deposit and loan book as we adjust the overall balance sheet to its new size. Third, the tailwinds that we're enjoying from tracker on rates.

Leo Salom: Paul Holden, let me take both of those, and then maybe I'll give you a sort of a summary view on the aggregate US performance. Let me start with the NIM. We delivered a NIM of 338 basis points, up 13 basis points quarter-on-quarter, 52 basis points on a year-on-year basis. Obviously a strong print. Really three factors. One, the remaining impact of all the loan repositioning work that we did last year, which obviously gave us, you know, a strong tailwind. Second, selective repricing activities across both the deposit and loan book as we adjust the overall balance sheet to its new size. Third, the tailwinds that we're enjoying from tracker on rates.

First is with respect to the name expansion, 13 basis points, this quarter um guidance for modest expansion next quarter. I think that was the same guidance. We got this quarter so what what drove the upside this quarter and potential? It follows through next quarter. And then second part of the question, with, with that good name expansion with you talking about, you know, loan growth starting to, um, improve and crossing over to positive, uh, in Q3. And what I'm seeing good expense discipline. But can we start to expect to see positive operating leverage and lower efficiency rate ratio out of the US Bank uh, and uh, in 2026

Speaker #3: NIADA is 723, up 22% on a year-on-year basis. And driven by both top-line revenue growth and sound credit performance, I think it was a good, solid profile.

Speaker #3: We are seeing acceleration in those critical loan areas that you mentioned. And I would expect that to continue over the next few quarters. But I do want to hit your expense point.

Speaker #3: A lot of effort is going into our expense strategies, expense strategic cost management strategies. As you would have seen this quarter, we did close 51 stores as we announced in the investor day.

Um, so Paul, let me take um, you know, both of those and then maybe I'll give you a sort of a summary view on on the aggregate us, uh, us performance. Um, let me start, let me start with the the Nim. We we delivered, uh, Nim of 338 base points up, 13 base points quarter on quarter 52 base points on a year-on-year basis. So obviously a a strong print, um, really 3 factors 1. The, the remaining impact of all the loan repositioning work that we did last year which obviously gave us, you know, a strong Tailwind second selective repricing activities across both.

The the deposit and Loan book is we adjust the overall balance sheet to its new size.

Leo: Those were the three primary drivers, and that was offset ever so slightly by the repricing, by the Fed rate cut. As we look at the next period, I won't have quite as much tailwind from the bond reposition activity because that's already reflected in our NII. I still think that we'll have margin expansion opportunities. They'll be more modest in nature. As we think about the rest of the year, obviously that tracker tailwind will still be there, but we'll have to, absorb the Fed rate cuts that are planned for the second half of the year. That's, that's basically in a nutshell where we think, overall NII is going to be.

Leo Salom: Those were the three primary drivers, and that was offset ever so slightly by the repricing, by the Fed rate cut. As we look at the next period, I won't have quite as much tailwind from the bond reposition activity because that's already reflected in our NII. I still think that we'll have margin expansion opportunities. They'll be more modest in nature. As we think about the rest of the year, obviously that tracker tailwind will still be there, but we'll have to, absorb the Fed rate cuts that are planned for the second half of the year. That's, that's basically in a nutshell where we think, overall NII is going to be.

Speaker #3: So we are going to see distribution savings. We continue to lean into our vendor management programs, with a sizable win this past quarter. Which certainly will contribute to our expense run rate profile going forward.

And third the the the Tailwinds that we're enjoying from tractor on rates. So those were the 3 primary drivers and that was offset ever. So slightly by by the repricing, by the Fed rate, cut

Speaker #3: AI and some of the process automation work is still front and center. And we are beginning to see some degree of opportunities to at least change the resourcing mix associated with our remediation programs all of which should create some downward pressure on expenses for the balance of the year.

Speaker #3: So you put the revenue momentum that we're enjoying now, the pricing discipline we've put in place, the expense focus that we have, and we'll continue to materialize over the rest of the year, I feel quite confident with regards to the outlook for the rest of the year.

As we look at the next period, I won't have it quite as much Tailwind from the bond, reposition activity, because that's already reflected in our knee. But I still think that we'll have margin expansion opportunities. There'll be more modest in nature. Uh, and then as we think about the rest of the year, obviously that that tractor Tailwind will still be there. But we'll have to uh absorb the Fed rate cuts that are planned for the second half of the year. So that's

Leo: As you saw, the net interest income number on an absolute basis, from a revenue perspective, was up 10% year-on-year. We're really pleased with the momentum that we're seeing there, you know, in aggregate. You know, with regards to, you know, overall, you know, loan performance, or the state of the business broadly, I couldn't be more pleased with the quarter. You know, NII at a 723, up 22% on a year-on-year basis, and driven by both top-line revenue growth and sound, you know, credit performance. I think it was a good, solid, you know, solid profile. We are seeing acceleration in those critical loan areas that you mentioned, and I would expect that, you know, to continue over the next few quarters.

Leo Salom: As you saw, the net interest income number on an absolute basis, from a revenue perspective, was up 10% year-on-year. We're really pleased with the momentum that we're seeing there, you know, in aggregate. You know, with regards to, you know, overall, you know, loan performance, or the state of the business broadly, I couldn't be more pleased with the quarter. You know, NII at a 723, up 22% on a year-on-year basis, and driven by both top-line revenue growth and sound, you know, credit performance. I think it was a good, solid, you know, solid profile. We are seeing acceleration in those critical loan areas that you mentioned, and I would expect that, you know, to continue over the next few quarters.

Speaker #4: That's good. That's good. One follow-up, if you don't mind. Just looking at the quarter over quarter change, and branch count down roughly 5%. But FTE up roughly 2.5%, maybe just talk quickly in terms of where you're adding headcount, and then I'll stop there.

Speaker #4: Thanks.

Speaker #3: Sure. Paul, I'm glad you brought it up because I should have mentioned it before. But we had a really important transaction that we closed.

Speaker #3: We successfully converted the Nordstrom portfolio onto our platform. So effective, this past weekend, we are now servicing all of Nordstrom onto our platform. So the FTE increase that you saw was essentially additional call center representatives or collection staff and fraud to be able to manage that expanded volume flow that now will be managing directly.

Leo: I do want to hit your expense point. A lot of effort is going into our expense strategies, expense, strategic cost management strategies. As you would have seen this quarter, we did close 51 stores as we announced in the Investor Day, so we are going to see distribution savings. We continue to lean into our vendor management programs with a sizable win this past quarter, which certainly will contribute to our expense run rate, you know, profile going forward. AI and some of the process automation work is still front and center, and we are beginning to see some degree of opportunities to at least change the resourcing mix associated with our remediation programs, all of which should create some downward pressure on expenses for the balance of the year.

Leo Salom: I do want to hit your expense point. A lot of effort is going into our expense strategies, expense, strategic cost management strategies. As you would have seen this quarter, we did close 51 stores as we announced in the Investor Day, so we are going to see distribution savings. We continue to lean into our vendor management programs with a sizable win this past quarter, which certainly will contribute to our expense run rate, you know, profile going forward. AI and some of the process automation work is still front and center, and we are beginning to see some degree of opportunities to at least change the resourcing mix associated with our remediation programs, all of which should create some downward pressure on expenses for the balance of the year.

Speaker #3: Previously, it was managed in Nordstrom. So we've taken expanded our staffing to be able to support that portfolio.

Absolute basis from a from a revenue perspective. It was up 10% year on year. So we're really pleased with the momentum that we're seeing there, you know, in aggregate. Um, you know, with regards to um, you know, overall you know loan performance I or or the state of the business broadly, I couldn't be more pleased with the quarter, you know uh Nia at a 723 up 22% on a year-on-year basis and driven by both Topline Revenue growth and sound, you know, credit performance. I think it was a it was a good solid uh you know solid profile. We are seeing acceleration and those critical area loan areas that you mentioned and I would expect that, you know, to continue over the next few quarters. But I do want to hit your expense point. A lot of effort is going into our expense strategies expense strategic cost management strategies. Um as you would have seen this quarter. We did close 51 stores as we as we announced in the investor day. So we are going to see distribution savings. We continue to lean into our vendor management programs with

Speaker #4: That's great. Thank you.

Speaker #3: Thank you.

Speaker #2: Thank you. The next question comes from Sohrab Movahedi, with BIMO Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Okay. Thank you. I just wanted to a question for Sona. If I remember correctly, I think at the investor day, the medium-term type of targets for your business would have had efficiency ratios, which I think you're at right now.

Leo: You put the revenue momentum that we're enjoying now, the pricing discipline we've put in place, you know, the expense focus that we have and that will continue to materialize over the rest of the year. I feel quite confident with regards to the outlook for the rest of the year. That's good. One follow-up, if you don't mind. Just looking at the quarter-over-quarter change in branch count, down roughly 5%, but FTE up roughly 2.5%. Maybe just talk quickly in terms of where you're adding headcount, and then I'll stop there, thanks.

Leo Salom: You put the revenue momentum that we're enjoying now, the pricing discipline we've put in place, you know, the expense focus that we have and that will continue to materialize over the rest of the year. I feel quite confident with regards to the outlook for the rest of the year.

A sizable win this past quarter, um, which certainly will contribute to our expense run rate, you know, profile, going forward, Ai and some of the process automation work is still front and center. And we are beginning to see some degree of opportunities. To at least change the resources that makes associated with our remediation programs, all of, which should create some downward pressure on expenses for the balance of the year. So you put the revenue momentum that we're enjoying now the the pricing discipline we've put in

Speaker #5: And ROEs, around, I think, where you're at right now, or at least where in this quarter, so is this as good as it gets for your business from those sorts of metrics?

Paul Holden: That's good. One follow-up, if you don't mind. Just looking at the quarter-over-quarter change in branch count, down roughly 5%, but FTE up roughly 2.5%. Maybe just talk quickly in terms of where you're adding headcount, and then I'll stop there, thanks.

In place, you know the expense Focus uh that we have and the and then we'll continue to materialize over the the rest of the year. I feel quite confident with regards to the outlook for the rest of the year.

Speaker #5: Or is there still room for improvement here, Sona?

Speaker #6: Thanks, Sohrab, for the question. Yeah, you're referencing our investor day targets. So both on efficiency ratio and ROE, we're targeting the 40% range. Sohrab, maybe if I just step back and look at both of those.

Raymond Chun: Well, I'm glad you brought it up because I should have mentioned it before, but we had a really important transaction that we closed. We successfully converted the Nordstrom portfolio onto our platform. Effective this past weekend, we are now servicing all of Nordstrom onto our platform. The FT increase that you saw was essentially additional call center representatives, our collection staff, and fraud, to be able to manage that expanded volume flow that now we'll be managing directly. Previously, it was managed in Nordstrom, so we've expanded our staffing to be able to support that portfolio.

Leo Salom: Well, I'm glad you brought it up because I should have mentioned it before, but we had a really important transaction that we closed. We successfully converted the Nordstrom portfolio onto our platform. Effective this past weekend, we are now servicing all of Nordstrom onto our platform. The FT increase that you saw was essentially additional call center representatives, our collection staff, and fraud, to be able to manage that expanded volume flow that now we'll be managing directly. Previously, it was managed in Nordstrom, so we've expanded our staffing to be able to support that portfolio.

That's good, that's good. One follow-up if you don't mind. Um, just looking at the core of our quarter—change in branch count down roughly 5%, but FTE, roughly 2 and a half. Maybe you can just talk quickly in terms of where you're adding headcount, and then I'll stop there. Thanks.

Speaker #6: So our efficiency ratio, obviously, this quarter, both from a revenue and an expense perspective, we're pleased with the performance this quarter. As I look at what we talked about at investor day, there's a number of levers that we have to manage efficiency ratio and improve efficiency ratio.

Speaker #6: We talked about distribution optimization. We talked about tech platforms and procurement. But what has become an even greater driver, I would say, since investor day, is how we will deploy AI.

Speaker #6: To favor efficiency ratio, maybe I'll just spend a few seconds on that. Our approach there is really to drive simple and fast experiences. But they come with real P&L outcomes.

Sohrab Movahedi: That's great. Thank you.

Paul Holden: That's great. Thank you.

Well, I'm glad you brought it up because I should have mentioned it before. But we had a, we had a really important uh, transaction uh, that we closed. We we successfully converted the Nordstrom portfolio onto our platform. So, so effective. This past weekend we are now servicing all of Nordstrom onto our platform. So so the the Ft increase that you saw was essentially additional call center Representatives. A collection staff and fraud to be able to manage that that expanded volume flow. That now will be managing directly previously. It was managed in Nordstrom, so we've taken we've, we've expanded our staffing to be able to support that portfolio.

Raymond Chun: Thank you.

Leo Salom: Thank you.

That's great. Thank you.

Operator: Thank you. The next question comes from Sohrab Movahedi with BMO Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Thank you.

Speaker #6: One example I would share with you. So you heard me talk a lot at investor day about speed and specialization. It's absolutely core. To our resolve strategy.

Sohrab Movahedi: Okay, thank you. I just wanted a question for Sona. If I remember correctly, I think at the Investor Day, the medium-term type of targets for your business would have had efficiency ratios, which I think you're at right now, and ROEs around, I think, where you're at right now, or at least we're in this quarter. Is this as good as it gets for your business from those sorts of metrics, or is there still room for improvement here, Sona?

Thank you. The next question comes from, sorab me with beimo capital markets. Please go ahead.

Speaker #6: And so we've recently deployed and started to scale Agentic AI into the resolve workflow. That's taking pre-adjudication processes from 15 hours down to minutes.

Okay, thank you. I just wanted to um um, a question for Sona, if I remember correctly. I think that the investor the medium-term type of targets for your business.

Would have had efficiency ratios, which I think you're at right now.

Speaker #6: So it's delivering speed to decision, as we said, speed was a big strategy, a better colleague experience. That helps us win more business. And of course, it takes out structural cost as well.

um, and Roes

Around, I think where you're at right now or at least where in this quarter.

Speaker #6: So I think what you will see is a number of things that we will do will benefit efficiency ratio, and will benefit ROE over the long term.

Sona Mehta: Thanks, Saurabh, for the question. Yeah, you're referencing our Investor Day targets. Both on efficiency ratio and ROE, we're targeting the 40% range. Saurabh, you know, maybe if I just step back and look at both of those. Our efficiency ratio, obviously this quarter, both from a revenue and an expense perspective, we're pleased with the performance this quarter. You know, as I look at what we talked about at Investor Day, there's a number of levers that we have to manage efficiency ratio and improve efficiency ratio. We talked about distribution optimization, we talked about tech platforms and procurement, but what has become an even greater driver, I would say, since Investor Day, is how we will deploy AI to favor efficiency ratio. You know, maybe I'll just spend, you know, a few seconds on that.

So is this as good as it gets for your business from those sorts of metrics? Or is there still room for improvement here? So,

Speaker #6: And these are short-cycle cases that we get up and down and deliver real value. So back to your point, I think we're very pleased with the performance.

Speaker #6: And we'll continue to lead in and we're making very good progress on our investor day track, investor day targets across the board.

Uh, thanks Dora for the question. Yeah, you're referencing our investor day targets. So, both, uh, on efficiency ratio and Roe, we're targeting the 40% range.

Speaker #5: And I think if I heard you correctly, but correct me if I'm wrong, since investor day, you would have you would move these targets higher, basically.

Um, so, you know, maybe if I just step back and look at both of those. So, our efficiency ratio obviously this quarter both from a revenue and an expense perspective. Uh, we're pleased uh, with the performance this quarter,

Speaker #5: Lower expense ratio and higher ROE just because of the traction on AI. Is that fair?

Speaker #6: Not quite, Sohrab. I think you will see us lean heavily in. Our targets, we hold on our specific targets. But the momentum and progress is incredible.

You know, as I look at what we talked about at investor day, there's a number of levers that we have to manage efficiency ratio, and improve efficiency ratio. We talked about distribution optimization, we talked about tech platforms and procurement, but what has become an even greater driver? I would say, since investor day is how we will deploy AI, um, to favor efficiency ratio,

Speaker #6: We just see an engine that is humming. And we see lots of possibilities.

Sona Mehta: Our approach there is really to drive simple and fast experiences, but they come with real P&L outcomes. One example I would share with you, so you heard me talk a lot at Investor Day about speed and specialization. It's absolutely core to our Resolute strategy. We recently deployed and started to scale agentic AI into the Resolute workflow. That's taking pre-adjudication processes from 15 hours down to minutes. It's delivering speed to decision. As we said, speed was a big strategy, a better colleague experience that helps us win more business, and of course, it takes out structural cost as well. I think what you will see is a number of things that we will do will benefit efficiency ratio and will benefit ROE over the long term.

Speaker #3: Sohrab, maybe I'll just jump in for a second. Also, what I would add is that it benefits that we think we will get now from an AI perspective, how we put out the billion dollars, $500 million in revenue, $500 million in expenses.

You know, maybe I'll just spend, uh, you know, a few seconds on that our approach. There is really to drive simple and fast experiences, but they come with real tnl outcomes.

Speaker #3: As Sona outlined, with one example, with the Agentic, we now see how much that can be scaled across the organization. Across every business line.

Speaker #3: So if you think about this mortgage example, it can be applied in credit cards, it can be applied in small business banking, it can be applied in commercial banking.

Speaker #3: In the US. And so I do think we're going to get more from the value from an AI perspective, beyond the billion dollars that Sona commented on.

Speaker #3: And then again, we're seeing good momentum, better momentum than what we had thought during investor day as a which was only six months ago.

Sona Mehta: These are short cycle cases that we get up and down and deliver real value. Back to your point, I think we're very pleased with the performance, and we'll continue to lean in, and we're making very good progress on our Investor Day targets across the board.

Speaker #3: So I think a great start to the year. And lots of momentum. And then if the macro environment continues, we do think we have upside both to our ROE at the enterprise level and to the EPS guidance that we provided.

As well. So I think what you will see is a number of, uh, things that we will do will benefit efficiency ratio and will benefit, uh, Roe over the long term. Um, and these are short cycle cases that we get up and down and deliver real value. So back to your point, I think we're very pleased with the performance and we'll continue to lead in and we're making very good progress.

On our investor day track.

In the targets across.

Sohrab Movahedi: I think if I heard you correctly, but correct me if I'm wrong, since Investor Day, you would have, you would move these targets higher, basically. Lower expense ratio and higher ROE just because of the traction on AI. Is that, is that fair?

Speaker #5: Yeah, I appreciate that, Color. Thank you.

Speaker #2: Thank you. There are no more questions in the queue at this time. I would now like to return the call to Mr. Raymond Chun for closing remarks.

Sona Mehta: Not quite, Saurabh. I think you will see us lean heavily in our targets, we hold on our specific targets, but the momentum and progress is incredible. We just see an engine that is humming, and we see lots of possibilities.

I think if I heard you correctly, um, but correct me if I'm wrong. Uh, since investigate, you would have uh you would move these targets higher basically, lower, lower expense ratio and higher Roe. Just because of the attraction on AI, is that is that fair?

Speaker #3: Well, thank you, Operator. And thank you, everyone, for joining us today. We appreciate your questions and comments. In Q1, we continued our strong momentum.

Uh, not quite sure but I think you will see us lean heavily in um, our targets. We hold.

Speaker #3: Delivering robust top-line growth, positive operating leverage, and record earnings. ROE was 14.2%, up 100 basis points year over year, as we continue to execute against the strategies and targets that we've shared with you.

Raymond Chun: Saurabh, maybe I'll just jump in for a second also. What I would add is that the benefits that we think we will get now from an AI perspective, and how we put out the CAD 1 billion, CAD 500 million in revenue, CAD 500 million in expenses, as Sona outlined, with one example with the agentic. We now see how much that can be scaled across the organization, across every business line. If you think about this mortgage example, it can be applied in credit cards, it can be applied in small business banking, it can be applied in commercial banking in the US. I do think we're gonna get more from the value from an AI perspective beyond the CAD 1 billion that Sona commented on.

Momentum and progress is incredible. We just see a engine that is coming and we see lots of possibilities.

Well, maybe I'll just jump in for a second. Also, the what I would add is

Speaker #3: Fiscal 2026 is off to a strong start. And I'm confident TD will continue to deliver for its shareholders, I look forward to connecting with all of you again next quarter.

Speaker #3: Thank you.

That the benefits that we think we will get now from, uh, from an AI perspective. You know, how we put out the billion dollars, 500 million in Revenue, 500 million in expenses. Uh, as soon as I outlined with 1 example, with the agentic, we now see how much that can be scaled across the organization, uh, across every business line. So, if you think about this mortgage example, it can be applied in credit cards can be applied in small,

Raymond Chun: Again, you know, we're seeing good momentum, better momentum than what we had thought during Investor Day, which was only six months ago. I think a great start to the year and lots of momentum. If the macro environment continues, we do think we have upside both to our ROE at the enterprise level and to the EPS guidance that we provided.

Sohrab Movahedi: Yeah, I appreciate that color. Thank you.

Business banking can be applied in Commercial Banking uh in the US and so I do think we're going to get more from the value from an AI perspective beyond the billion dollars uh that that's on a commented on. Um and then again you know, we're seeing good momentum better momentum than what we had thought during investor day as a, which was only 6 months ago. So I think a great start to the to the year and lots of momentum uh and then if the macro environment continues we do think uh we have upside both to our Roe at the Enterprise level and to the EPS guidance that we provided

Yeah, I appreciate the color. Thank you.
