Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current period.

As a result, certain comparative amounts have been restated where applicable. For more information refer to Note 4 of the 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements.

TORONTO, Dec. 3, 2015 /CNW/ - TD Bank Group ("TD" or the "Bank") today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ending October 31, 2015. Fourth quarter adjusted earnings of $2.2 billion were up 17% over the same quarter last year, with strong performances from all business segments

"We are very pleased to finish the year with strong total adjusted earnings of $8.8 billion, an increase of 8% over last year," said Bharat Masrani, Group President and Chief Executive Officer. "Results for the year reflect good earnings performance from all businesses, driven by good organic growth, strong credit quality, favourable currency translation and positive operating leverage."

Further to the cost reduction and expense management initiatives taken throughout 2015, the Bank recorded restructuring charges of $349 million ($243 million after tax) on a net basis in the fourth quarter.

Canadian Retail
Canadian Retail delivered reported and adjusted net income of $1.5 billion in the fourth quarter, an increase of 15% on a reported basis, and an increase of 10% on an adjusted basis over the same quarter last year. Higher earnings were driven by good loan, deposit and wealth asset volume growth, continued strong credit performance, higher insurance earnings, and good expense management.

"We are very pleased with our strong fourth quarter in our Canadian Retail business," said Tim Hockey, Group Head, Canadian Banking and Wealth Management. "We maintained our leadership position in key products by capturing growth opportunities and driving operational excellence. In 2016, we will continue to win by providing legendary service and convenience to our customers: where, when, and how they want to bank with us."

U.S. Retail
U.S. Retail generated reported net income of US$452 million and adjusted net income of US$491 million in the fourth quarter. Excluding the Bank's investment in TD Ameritrade, the segment generated adjusted net income of US$407 million, an increase of 6% compared with the fourth quarter last year. Earnings were driven by strong organic volume growth, partially offset by higher provisions for credit losses.

TD Ameritrade contributed US$84 million in earnings to the segment, an increase of 9% compared with the fourth quarter last year.

"Our fourth quarter results marked a good finish to a strong year where we continued to take market share," said Mike Pedersen, Group Head, U.S. Banking. "In 2016, we'll continue to focus on acquiring more customers, deepening customer relationships, and improving productivity."

Wholesale Banking
Wholesale Banking net income for the quarter was $196 million, an increase of 23% compared with the fourth quarter last year, driven by higher trading revenue and corporate lending growth.

"Our Wholesale Banking business delivered a solid finish to the year," said Bob Dorrance, Group Head, Wholesale Banking. "During the fourth quarter, TD Securities delivered good trading results despite global uncertainty and lower client activity, and grew our corporate lending portfolio. In 2016, we will remain focused on attracting new clients, expanding our franchise both in Canada and the U.S., and managing our risks, capital, and productivity."

Capital
TD's Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio on a Basel III fully phased-in basis was 9.9%, compared with 10.1% last quarter, reflecting business growth, including the acquisition of the Nordstrom credit card portfolio.

Conclusion
"Our 2015 results truly demonstrate the strength and resilience of TD's earnings power. This year we took decisive steps to optimize our operations and adapt to a slower growth environment, enabling us to reinvest in our businesses, and positioning us well for growth," said Masrani. "We will continue to grow, take market share and relentlessly focus on delivering legendary customer experiences across all of our businesses and channels. I would like to thank our incredible employees for their continuing outstanding dedication and contributions to building the even Better Bank."

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
From time to time, the Bank (as defined in this document) makes written and/or oral forward-looking statements, including in this document, in other filings with Canadian regulators or the United States (U.S.) Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and in other communications. In addition, representatives of the Bank may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others. 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. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements made in this document, including in the Management's Discussion and Analysis ("2015 MD&A") under the heading "Economic Summary and Outlook", for each business segment under headings "Business Outlook and Focus for 2016", and in other statements regarding the Bank's objectives and priorities for 2016 and beyond and strategies to achieve them, the regulatory environment in which the Bank operates, and the Bank's anticipated financial performance. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "will", "should", "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "plan", "may", and "could".

By their very nature, these forward-looking statements require the Bank to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, general and specific. Especially in light of the uncertainty related to the physical, financial, economic, political, and regulatory environments, such risks and uncertainties - many of which are beyond the Bank's control and the effects of which can be difficult to predict - may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. Risk factors that could cause, individually or in the aggregate, such differences include: credit, market (including equity, commodity, foreign exchange, and interest rate), liquidity, operational (including technology and infrastructure), reputational, insurance, strategic, regulatory, legal, environmental, capital adequacy, and other risks. Examples of such risk factors include the general business and economic conditions in the regions in which the Bank operates; the ability of the Bank to execute on key priorities, including to successfully complete acquisitions, business retention, and strategic plans and to attract, develop and retain key executives; 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; the evolution of various types of fraud or other criminal behaviour to which the Bank is exposed; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to the Bank or its affiliates, including relating to the care and control of information; the impact of new and changes to, or application of, current laws and regulations, including without limitation tax laws, risk-based capital guidelines and liquidity regulatory guidance; the overall difficult litigation environment, including in the U.S.; increased competition, including through internet and mobile banking and non-traditional competitors; changes to the Bank's credit ratings; changes in currency and interest rates; increased funding costs and market volatility due to market illiquidity and competition for funding; critical accounting estimates and changes to accounting standards, policies, and methods used by the Bank; existing and potential international debt crises; and the occurrence of natural and unnatural catastrophic events and claims resulting from such events. 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 detailed information, please refer to the "Risk Factors and Management" section of the 2015 MD&A, as may be updated in subsequently filed quarterly reports to shareholders and news releases (as applicable) related to any transactions or events discussed under the heading "Significant Events" in the relevant MD&A, which applicable releases may be found on www.td.com. All such factors should be considered carefully, as well as other uncertainties and potential events, and the inherent uncertainty of forward-looking statements, when making decisions with respect to the Bank and the Bank cautions readers not to place undue reliance on the Bank's forward-looking statements.

Material economic assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this document are set out in the 2015 MD&A under the headings "Economic Summary and Outlook", and for each business segment, "Business Outlook and Focus for 2016", each as updated in subsequently filed quarterly reports to shareholders.

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. 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, except as required under applicable securities legislation.

HOW WE PERFORMED

How the Bank Reports
The Bank prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS, the current GAAP, and refers to results prepared in accordance with IFRS as "reported" results. The Bank also utilizes non-GAAP financial measures to arrive at "adjusted" results to assess each of its businesses and to measure the overall Bank performance. To arrive at adjusted results, the Bank removes "items of note", net of income taxes, from reported results. The items of note relate to items which management does not believe are indicative of underlying business performance. The Bank believes that adjusted results provide the reader with a better understanding of how management views the Bank's performance. The items of note are disclosed on Table 3. As explained, adjusted results are different from reported results determined in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted results, items of note, and related terms used in this document are not defined terms under IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers. The Bank implemented 2015 IFRS Standards and Amendments, which required retrospective application, effective the first quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result, certain comparative amounts have been restated where applicable. For more information, refer to Note 4 of the 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements. The 2015 IFRS Standards and Amendments were not incorporated into the regulatory capital disclosures presented prior to the first quarter of 2015.

⁹	As a result of an adverse judgment and evaluation of certain other developments and exposures in the U.S. in 2015, the Bank took prudent steps to reassess its litigation provision. Having considered these factors, including related or analogous cases, the Bank determined, in accordance with applicable accounting standards, that an increase of $52 million ($32 million after tax) to the Bank's litigation provision was required in the second quarter of 2015. During the third quarter of 2015, distributions of $39 million ($24 million after tax) were received by the Bank as a result of previous settlements reached on certain matters in the U.S., whereby the Bank was assigned the right to these distributions, if and when made available. The amount in the third quarter of 2015 reflects this recovery of previous settlements.
¹⁰	The Bank changed its trading strategy with respect to certain trading debt securities and reclassified these securities from trading to the available-for-sale category effective August 1, 2008. These debt securities are economically hedged, primarily with credit default swap and interest rate swap contracts which are recorded on a fair value basis with changes in fair value recorded in the period's earnings. Management believes that this asymmetry in the accounting treatment between derivatives and the reclassified debt securities results in volatility in earnings from period to period that is not indicative of the economics of the underlying business performance in Wholesale Banking. The Bank may from time to time replace securities within the portfolio to best utilize the initial, matched fixed term funding. As a result, the derivatives are accounted for on an accrual basis in Wholesale Banking and the gains and losses related to the derivatives in excess of the accrued amounts are reported in the Corporate segment. Adjusted results of the Bank exclude the gains and losses of the derivatives in excess of the accrued amount.
¹¹	As a result of the acquisition of the credit card portfolio of MBNA Canada, as well as certain other assets and liabilities, the Bank incurred integration charges. Integration charges consist of costs related to information technology, employee retention, external professional consulting charges, marketing (including customer communication and rebranding), integration-related travel, employee severance costs, consulting, and training. The Bank's integration charges related to the MBNA acquisition were higher than what were anticipated when the transaction was first announced. The elevated spending was primarily due to additional costs incurred (other than the amounts capitalized) to build out technology platforms for the business. Integration charges related to this acquisition were incurred by the Canadian Retail segment. The fourth quarter of 2014 was the last quarter Canadian Retail included any further MBNA-related integration charges as an item of note.
¹²	On December 27, 2013, the Bank acquired approximately 50% of the existing Aeroplan credit card portfolio from the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC) and on January 1, 2014, the Bank became the primary issuer of Aeroplan Visa credit cards. The Bank incurred program set-up, conversion, and other one-time costs related to the acquisition of the portfolio and related affinity agreement, consisting of information technology, external professional consulting, marketing, training, and program management, as well as a commercial subsidy payment of $127 million ($94 million after tax) payable to CIBC. These costs were included as an item of note in the Canadian Retail segment. The third quarter of 2014 was the last quarter Canadian Retail included any set-up, conversion, or other one-time costs related to the acquired Aeroplan credit card portfolio as an item of note.
¹³	In the third quarter of 2013, the Bank recorded PCL of $65 million ($48 million after tax) for residential loan losses from Alberta flooding. In the fourth quarter of 2013, a provision of $40 million ($29 million after tax) was released. In the third quarter of 2014, the Bank released the remaining provision of $25 million ($19 million after tax). The release of the remaining provision reflects low levels of delinquency and impairments to date, as well as a low likelihood of future material losses within the portfolio.
¹⁴	On November 12, 2013, TD Waterhouse Canada Inc., a subsidiary of the Bank, completed the sale of the Bank's institutional services business, known as TD Waterhouse Institutional Services, to a subsidiary of National Bank of Canada. The transaction price was $250 million in cash, subject to certain price adjustment mechanisms which were settled in the third and fourth quarters of 2014. On the transaction date, a gain of $196 million after tax was recorded in the Corporate segment in other income. The gain is not considered to be in the normal course of business for the Bank.

Return on Common Equity
The Bank's methodology for allocating capital to its business segments is aligned with the common equity capital requirements under Basel III. Beginning November 1, 2014, capital allocated to the business segments is based on 9% Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Capital.

Adjusted return on common equity (ROE) is adjusted net income available to common shareholders as a percentage of average common equity.

Adjusted ROE is a non-GAAP financial measure as it is not a defined term under IFRS. Readers are cautioned that earnings and other measures adjusted to a basis other than IFRS do not have standardized meanings under IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN 2015

Restructuring Charges
During 2015, the Bank commenced its restructuring review and in the fourth quarter of 2015, the Bank recorded an additional restructuring charge of $349 million ($243 million after tax) on a net basis. In the second quarter of 2015 the Bank recorded $337 million ($228 million after tax) of restructuring charges. The restructuring charges incurred were intended to reduce costs and manage expenses in a sustainable manner and to achieve greater operational efficiencies. These measures included process redesign and business restructuring, retail branch and real estate optimization, and organizational review.

Acquisition of Nordstrom Inc.'s U.S. Credit Card Portfolio
On October 1, 2015, the Bank, through its subsidiary, TD Bank USA, National Association (TD Bank USA, N.A.), acquired substantially all of Nordstrom Inc.'s (Nordstrom) existing U.S. Visa and private label consumer credit card portfolio, with a gross outstanding balance of $2.9 billion (US$2.2 billion). In addition, the Bank and Nordstrom entered into a long-term agreement under which the Bank became the exclusive U.S. issuer of Nordstrom-branded Visa and private label consumer credit cards to Nordstrom customers.

At the date of acquisition the Bank recorded the credit card receivables at their fair value of $2.9 billion. The transaction was treated as an asset acquisition and the pre-tax difference of $73 million on the date of acquisition of the transaction price over the fair value of assets acquired has been recorded in Non-interest income. The gross amounts of revenue and credit losses have been recorded on the Consolidated Statement of Income in the U.S. Retail segment since that date. Nordstrom shares in a fixed percentage of the revenue and credit losses incurred. Nordstrom's share of revenue and credit losses is recorded in Non-interest expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Income and related receivables from, or payables to Nordstrom are recorded in Other assets or Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

HOW OUR BUSINESSES PERFORMED

For management reporting purposes, the Bank reports its results under three key business segments: Canadian Retail, which includes the results of the Canadian personal and commercial banking businesses, Canadian credit cards, TD Auto Finance Canada, and Canadian wealth and insurance businesses; U.S. Retail, which includes the results of the U.S. personal and commercial banking businesses, U.S. credit cards, TD Auto Finance U.S., U.S. wealth business, and the Bank's investment in TD Ameritrade; and Wholesale Banking. The Bank's other activities are grouped into the Corporate segment.

Effective October 1, 2015, the results of the acquired Nordstrom U.S. Credit Card Portfolio are reported in the U.S. Retail segment. Effective December 27, 2013, and January 1, 2014, the results of the acquired Aeroplan credit card portfolio and the results of the related affinity relationship with Aimia Inc. (collectively, "Aeroplan") are reported in the Canadian Retail segment.

Results of each business segment reflect revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities generated by the businesses in that segment. The Bank measures and evaluates the performance of each segment based on adjusted results, where applicable, and for those segments the Bank indicates that the measure is adjusted. Net income for the operating business segments is presented before any items of note not attributed to the operating segments. For further details, refer to the "How the Bank Reports" section of this document, the "Business Focus" section in the 2015 MD&A, and Note 30 of the Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended October 31, 2015. For information concerning the Bank's measure of adjusted return on average common equity, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, refer to the "How We Performed" section of this document.

Net interest income within Wholesale Banking is calculated on a taxable equivalent basis (TEB), which means that the value of non-taxable or tax-exempt income, including dividends, is adjusted to its equivalent before-tax value. Using TEB allows the Bank to measure income from all securities and loans consistently and makes for a more meaningful comparison of net interest income with similar institutions. The TEB increase to net interest income and provision for income taxes reflected in Wholesale Banking results are reversed in the Corporate segment. The TEB adjustment for the quarter was $95 million, compared with $76 million in the fourth quarter last year, and $91 million in the prior quarter.

Quarterly comparison - Q4 2015 vs. Q4 2014
Canadian Retail net income for the quarter on a reported basis was $1,496 million, an increase of $192 million, or 15%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted net income for the quarter was $1,496 million, an increase of $138 million, or 10%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. The increase in adjusted earnings was primarily due to good loan and deposit volume growth, wealth asset growth, strong credit performance, higher insurance earnings, and good expense management. The reported and adjusted annualized return on common equity for the quarter was 42.3%, compared with 40.8% and 42.5%, respectively, in the fourth quarter last year.

Canadian Retail revenue is derived from the Canadian personal and commercial banking businesses, including credit cards, auto finance, wealth, and insurance businesses. Revenue for the quarter was $4,997 million, an increase of $77 million, or 2%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Net interest income increased $62 million, or 3%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily driven by good loan and deposit volume growth partially offset by lower margins. Non-interest income increased $15 million, or 1%, largely due to higher fee-based revenue in personal and commercial banking, good wealth asset growth, and insurance premium growth, partially offset by a change in mix of reinsurance contracts and the change in fair value of investments supporting insurance claims liabilities.

The personal banking business generated good lending volume growth of $13.3 billion, or 5%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Average real estate secured lending volume increased $10.8 billion, or 5%. Auto lending average volume increased $2.6 billion, or 16%, while all other personal lending average volumes were flat. Business loans and acceptances average volume increased $4.9 billion, or 9%. Average personal deposit volumes increased $9.3 billion, or 6%, due to strong growth in core chequing and savings volumes, partially offset by lower term deposit volume. Average business deposit volumes increased $3.8 billion, or 5%. Margin on average earning assets was 2.84%, an 8 basis points (bps) decrease, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to the low rate environment and competitive pricing.

Assets under administration (AUA) were $310 billion as at October 31, 2015, an increase of $17 billion, or 6%, and assets under management (AUM) were $245 billion at October 31, 2015, an increase of $18 billion, or 8%, compared with last year, driven by strong new asset growth.

Provision for credit losses (PCL) for the quarter was $221 million, a decrease of $29 million, or 12%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Personal banking PCL was $228 million, a decrease of $3 million, or 1%, primarily due to lower provisions in credit cards, partially offset by higher provisions in the auto lending portfolio. Business banking PCL decreased $26 million, primarily due to higher recoveries and lower provisions in the current quarter. Annualized PCL as a percentage of credit volume was 0.25%, a decrease of 5 bps, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Net impaired loans were $715 million, a decrease of $119 million, or 14%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Net impaired loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.20%, compared with 0.25% as at October 31, 2014.

Insurance claims and related expenses for the quarter were $637 million, a decrease of $83 million, or 12%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to a change in mix of reinsurance contracts, more favourable prior years' claims development, and the change in fair value of investments supporting claims liabilities, partially offset by higher current year claims costs.

Reported non-interest expenses for the quarter were $2,143 million, a decrease of $81 million, or 4%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted non-interest expenses for the quarter were $2,143 million, a decrease of $8 million, compared with the fourth quarter last year. The decrease was primarily driven by initiatives to increase productivity, partially offset by higher revenue-based variable compensation in the wealth business and legal provisions.

The reported and adjusted efficiency ratio for the quarter was 42.9%, compared with 45.2% and 43.7%, respectively, in the fourth quarter last year.

Quarterly comparison - Q4 2015 vs. Q3 2015
Canadian Retail net income for the quarter decreased $61 million, or 4%, compared with the prior quarter. The decrease in earnings was primarily due to higher insurance claims and an increase in non-interest expenses, partially offset by lower PCL compared with the prior quarter. The reported and adjusted annualized return on common equity for the quarter was 42.3%, compared with 44.6%, in the prior quarter.

Revenue for the quarter decreased $14 million, compared with the prior quarter. Net interest income increased $17 million, or 1% compared with the prior quarter as the increase from volume growth was partially offset by margin compression. Non-interest income decreased $31 million or 1%, primarily due to the change in fair value of investments supporting insurance claims and lower wealth asset-based revenue. Margin on average earning assets was 2.84%, a 4 bps decrease compared with the prior quarter, primarily due to a decline in deposit margins due to the low rate environment, and seasonally lower mortgage renewal revenue.

The personal banking business generated average lending volume growth of $5.9 billion, or 2%, compared with the prior quarter. Average real estate secured lending volume increased $5.4 billion, or 2%. Auto lending average volume increased $0.8 billion, or 5%, while all other personal lending average volumes decreased $0.3 billion, or 1% compared with the prior quarter. Business loans and acceptances average volume increased $1.1 billion, or 2%. Average personal deposit volumes increased $3.7 billion, or 2%, due to growth in core chequing and savings volumes, partially offset by lower term deposit volume. Average business deposit volumes increased $0.4 billion, compared with the prior quarter.

AUA were $310 billion as at October 31, 2015, a decrease of $4 billion, or 1%, and AUM were $245 billion at October 31, 2015, a decrease of $4 billion, or 2% compared with July 31, 2015, driven primarily by decrease in market value, partially offset by new asset growth.

PCL for the quarter decreased $16 million, or 7%, compared with the prior quarter. Personal banking PCL increased $23 million or 11%, primarily due to higher provisions in auto lending and credit cards portfolios. Business banking PCL decreased $39 million, due to higher provisions against two commercial clients in the prior quarter and higher recoveries in the current quarter. Annualized PCL as a percentage of credit volume was 0.25%, a decrease of 2 bps compared with the prior quarter. Net impaired loans increased $9 million, or 1%, compared with the prior quarter. Net impaired loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.20%, in line with the prior quarter.

Insurance claims and related expenses for the quarter increased $37 million, or 6%, compared with the prior quarter, primarily due to weather-related events, and less favourable prior years' claims development, partly offset by the change in fair value of investments supporting claims liabilities.

Non-interest expenses for the quarter increased $39 million, or 2%, compared with the prior quarter due to legal provisions, and higher seasonal marketing expenses, partially offset by lower employee-related costs.

The reported and adjusted efficiency ratio for the quarter was 42.9%, compared with 42.0%, in the prior quarter.

Quarterly comparison - Q4 2015 vs. Q4 2014
U.S. Retail net income for the quarter on a reported basis was $595 million (US$452 million). U.S. Retail adjusted net income for the quarter was $646 million (US$491 million), which included net income of $537 million (US$407 million) from the U.S. Retail Bank and $109 million (US$84 million) from TD's investment in TD Ameritrade. U.S. dollar adjusted earnings were up 6% compared with the prior year, while Canadian dollar earnings benefited from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar with adjusted earnings up 27% to $646 million. The reported and adjusted annualized ROE for the quarter was 7.1% and 7.8% respectively, compared to 7.6% for the fourth quarter last year.

U.S. Retail Bank net income for the quarter on a reported basis was US$368 million, a decrease of US$17 million, or 4%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. U.S. Retail Bank adjusted net income for the quarter was US$407 million, an increase of US$22 million, or 6%, compared with the fourth quarter last year primarily due to strong organic growth and a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by higher PCL. The contribution from TD Ameritrade of US$84 million was up 9% compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to strong asset growth and higher transaction revenue, partially offset by higher operating expenses and lower investment gains.

U.S. Retail Bank revenue is derived from personal banking, business banking, investments, auto lending, credit cards, and wealth management. Reported revenue for the quarter was US$1,903 million, an increase of US$52 million, or 3%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. On an adjusted basis, revenue for the quarter was US$1,959 million, an increase of US$108 million, or 6%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to strong loan and deposit growth, broad-based fee growth, and the Nordstrom acquisition, partially offset by lower margins. Other non-interest income increased due to the Nordstrom acquisition and customer account growth. Margin on average earning assets was 3.59%, a 6 bps decrease compared with the fourth quarter last year. Excluding Nordstrom, margin on average earning assets was 3.54%, a decline of 11 bps due to lower loan margins and change in balance sheet mix. Excluding Nordstrom, average loan volumes increased US$12 billion, or 11%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, due to growth in business loans of 17% and growth in personal loans of 4%. Average deposit volumes increased US$14 billion, or 7%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, driven by 7% growth in business deposit volume, 8% growth in personal deposit volume, and 6% growth in TD Ameritrade deposits.

PCL for the quarter was US$184 million, an increase of US$59 million, or 47%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to higher provisions for commercial loans and provisions related to the flooding in South Carolina. Personal banking PCL was US$170 million, an increase of US$53 million, or 45%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to the South Carolina flooding provision and volume growth. Business banking PCL was US$35 million, a $7 million increase as compared to the fourth quarter last year. Net impaired loans, excluding acquired credit-impaired (ACI) loans and debt securities classified as loans, were US$1.5 billion, an increase of US$209 million, or 17%, compared with the fourth quarter last year driven primarily by inclusion of certain performing home equity loans that have been reported as impaired, because borrowers may not qualify under current underwriting guidelines. Net impaired loans as a percentage of total loans were 1.1% as at October 31, 2015, flat compared with the fourth quarter last year. Net impaired debt securities classified as loans were US$797 million, a decrease of US$122 million, or 13%, compared with the fourth quarter last year.

Reported non-interest expenses for the quarter were US$1,315 million, an increase of US$66 million, or 5%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. On an adjusted basis, non-interest expenses were US$1,308 million, an increase of US$59 million, or 5%, compared with the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to the Nordstrom acquisition, higher legal costs, and investments to support business growth, partially offset by ongoing productivity savings.

The reported efficiency ratio for the quarter was 69.1%, compared with 67.5% in the fourth quarter last year, while the adjusted efficiency ratio was 66.8%, compared with 67.5% in the fourth quarter last year.

U.S. Retail Bank reported net income for the quarter decreased US$101 million, or 22%, compared with the prior quarter. U.S. Retail Bank adjusted net income for the quarter decreased US$43 million, or 10%, primarily due to higher expenses and higher PCL. The contribution from TD Ameritrade increased US$10 million, or 14%, compared with the prior quarter primarily due to strong asset growth and higher transaction revenue, partially offset by higher operating expenses and lower investment gains. The reported annualized ROE for the quarter was 7.1%, compared with 8.6% in the prior quarter. The adjusted annualized ROE for the quarter was 7.8%, compared with 8.3% in the prior quarter.

Reported revenue for the quarter decreased US$8 million, relatively flat compared with the prior quarter.

Margin on average earning assets was 3.59%, a 9 bps increase compared with the prior quarter. Excluding Nordstrom, margin on average earning assets was 3.54%, a 4 bps increase primarily due to favourable balance sheet mix and higher accretion. Excluding Nordstrom, average loan volumes increased US$4 billion, or 3%, compared with the prior quarter, due to growth in business loans of 4% and growth in personal loans of 2%. Average deposit volumes increased US$8 billion, or 4%, compared with the prior quarter, driven by 6% growth in business deposit volume, 1% growth in personal deposit volume, and 5% growth in TD Ameritrade deposits.

PCL for the quarter increased US$23 million, or 14%, compared with the prior quarter, primarily due to provisions related to the South Carolina flooding and seasonally higher charge-offs in auto loans, partially offset by a recovery on certain debt securities classified as loans.

¹	In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Bank implemented a funding valuation adjustment (FVA) in response to growing evidence that market implied funding costs and benefits are now considered in the pricing and fair valuation of uncollateralized derivatives. Refer to Note 5 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on FVA.
²	Includes gross loans and bankers' acceptances, excluding letters of credit and before any cash collateral, credit default swaps (CDS), reserves, etc., for the corporate lending business.
³	Effective the first quarter of fiscal 2015, capital allocated to the business segments is based on 9% CET1 Capital. These changes have been applied prospectively.

Quarterly comparison - Q4 2015 vs. Q4 2014
Wholesale Banking net income for the quarter was $196 million, an increase of $36 million, or 23%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. The increase in earnings was primarily due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher PCL and higher non-interest expenses. The annualized ROE for the quarter was 13.0%, flat to the fourth quarter last year.

Wholesale Banking revenue is derived primarily from capital markets services and corporate lending. The capital markets businesses generate revenue from advisory, underwriting, trading, facilitation, and trade execution services. Revenue for the quarter was $666 million, an increase of $62 million, or 10%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. Revenue increased primarily on higher trading-related performance and higher corporate lending growth both in Canada and the U.S., partially offset by lower equity underwriting, reflecting lower industry activity. The revenue increase also included the positive impact of foreign exchange translation. Trading-related revenue increased mainly due to higher foreign exchange trading on improved client activity, and higher fixed income trading as the prior year included the first-time implementation of a funding valuation adjustment (FVA) which resulted in a pre-tax additional charge of $65 million, partially offset by lower equity trading.

PCL for the quarter was a charge of $14 million and consisted primarily of the accrual cost of credit protection and a specific credit provision in the corporate lending portfolio. PCL in the fourth quarter last year was a net recovery of $1 million, as the accrual cost of credit protection was largely offset by a recovery of a previously recorded provision in the investment portfolio.

Non-interest expenses for the quarter were $390 million, an increase of $9 million, or 2%, compared with the fourth quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to the impact of foreign exchange translation and higher operating expenses, partially offset by lower variable compensation.

Quarterly comparison - Q4 2015 vs. Q3 2015
Wholesale Banking net income for the quarter decreased $43 million, or 18%, compared with the prior quarter. The decrease was largely due to lower revenue and higher PCL, partially offset by lower non-interest expenses. The annualized ROE for the quarter was 13.0%, compared with 17.2% in the prior quarter.

Revenue for the quarter decreased $99 million, or 13%, compared with the prior quarter. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower fixed income and equity trading on reduced client volumes, and lower underwriting fees as the prior quarter benefited from stronger debt and equity capital markets. This decrease was partially offset by higher corporate lending reflecting increased loan volumes, and higher foreign exchange trading.

PCL for the quarter was $14 million, compared with $2 million in the prior quarter. PCL in the current quarter consisted primarily of the accrual cost of credit protection and a specific credit provision in the corporate lending portfolio.

Non-interest expenses for the quarter decreased $41 million, or 10%, primarily due to lower variable compensation commensurate with revenue.
