Financial Commentary
Overview
HSBC Bank Canada recorded profit for the period of C$160m for the first quarter of 2011, an increase of C$6m, or 3.9% compared with profit of C$154m for the first quarter of 2010. Profit attributable to common shareholders of C$142m was recorded for the quarter ended 31 March 2011, an increase of C$9m, or 6.8% over the first quarter of 2010. The increase was primarily due to higher fee income and lower loan impairment charges, partially offset by lower net interest income and increased operating expenses. A reduction in statutory tax rates also contributed to the increase in profit for the period.
Commenting on the results, Lindsay Gordon, President and Chief Executive Officer of HSBC Bank Canada, said:
"Improving economic conditions, a reduction in credit losses and HSBC's strong business fundamentals delivered continued solid operating results for the first quarter. We continued to focus on generating growth, building on our global capabilities to meet our customer needs, while maintaining strong capital and liquidity levels.
"We expect the economy to show modest but continued improvement through 2011 and HSBC is well placed to support our clients' growth ambitions as the Canadian employment picture improves and trade with emerging markets increases."
Analysis of Consolidated Financial Results for the First Quarter of 2011
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2011 was C$382m, compared with C$394m for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of C$12m, or 3.0%. The decrease was primarily due to spread compression resulting from competitive pressures and lower loan volumes, resulting from reduced commercial borrowings and Consumer Finance receivables, as well as our strategic initiatives to reduce commercial real estate concentration. These decreases were partially offset by the benefit from increases in the Bank of Canada interest rates impacting the bank's prime rate-based assets.
Net fee income for the first quarter of 2011 was C$163m, compared with C$146m for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of C$17m, or 11.6%. Fees from funds under management, credit facilities and brokerage commissions increased by C$18m, due to stronger sales and increased equity values in the wealth management business, higher volumes of bankers' acceptances and standby credits and increased international trade activity in commercial banking. These were partially offset by a decrease in corporate finance fees compared to the prior period.
Net trading income for the first quarter of 2011 was C$37m, compared with C$36m for the first quarter of 2010. The main factor contributing to the slight increase in the current period was an increase in foreign exchange trading revenue as a result of specific marketing initiatives to increase customer transaction volumes.
Net loss from financial instruments designated at fair value. The bank records certain subordinated debentures, deposits and liabilities of subsidiaries at fair value. As credit spreads continued to narrow in the first quarter of 2011, the change in fair value of these balances resulted in an expense of C$8m in the period, which was unchanged from the same quarter in 2010.
Gains less losses from financial investments for the first quarter of 2011 were C$16m, compared with C$3m for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of C$13m. The increase was due to the disposal of the bank's available-for-sale preferred share portfolio, combined with higher gains on certain government bonds and bank debt securities sold in the current quarter.
Other operating income for the first quarter of 2011 was C$40m, compared with C$42m for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of C$2m, or 4.8%. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in recoveries related to the delivery of technology services to other HSBC Group companies, with the related expenses recorded in "total operating expenses" below.
Loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions of C$49m were recorded in the first quarter of 2011 compared with C$69m for the first quarter of 2010. Although conditions remain uncertain, the decrease in loan impairment charges in 2011 compared to 2010 was due to a decrease in individually assessed impairment charges on the bank's commercial loan portfolio and lower collectively assessed allowances on the consumer finance portfolio as a result of lower receivable balances and lower delinquencies.
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were C$359m, compared with C$320m for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of C$39m, or 12.2%. Salaries and employee benefits increased by C$28m, primarily due to increases in commissions and performance-based incentives as a result of better underlying performance, higher full-time salaries and an increase in the post-retirement benefits expense as a result of enhancements to certain of the bank's pension plans. The remainder of the increase over the first quarter of 2010 was due to higher technology and service charges, including expenses related to the delivery of technology services to other HSBC Group companies (with the associated revenue included in "other operating income" above) and higher outside service costs, partially offset by lower premises and equipment costs.
Income tax expense. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2011 was 28.3%, compared with 31.3% in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease in the current quarter was largely due to a reduction in statutory tax rates.
Statement of Financial Position
Total assets at 31 March 2011 were C$79.1bn, an increase of C$1.1bn from 31 December 2010, primarily due to a C$0.5bn increase in trading assets and a C$0.7bn increase in loans and advances to customers. Liquidity remained strong, with C$25.9bn of cash and balances at central banks, items in the course of collection from other banks, trading assets, loans and advances to banks and financial investments at 31 March 2011, compared to C$26.1bn at 31 December 2010. Loans and advances to customers increased to C$46.0bn from C$45.2bn at 31 December 2010, primarily due an increase in the balance of reverse repurchase agreements with customers. Excluding repurchase agreements, loans and advances decreased by C$0.2bn, as our commercial customers deleveraged their balance sheets.
Gross impaired loans were C$857m, an increase of C$59m compared with C$798m at 31 December 2010, but were C$143m lower than at 31 March 2010. Total impaired loans net of specific allowances for credit losses were C$630m at 31 March 2011, compared with C$571m at 31 December 2010. Total impaired loans includes C$116m (31 December 2010 - C$117m) of Consumer Finance loans, for which impairment is assessed collectively. The collective allowance applicable to Consumer Finance loans was C$140m compared to C$148m at 31 December 2010. The total collective allowance was C$387m compared to C$400m at 31 December 2010.
Total customer accounts decreased to C$44.3bn at 31 March 2011 from C$45.5bn at 31 December 2010. The main decreases were in fixed date personal deposits and interest-bearing current accounts.
Debt securities in issue increased to C$15.2bn at 31 March 2011 from C$14.8bn at 31 December 2010, primarily due to an increase in wholesale term deposits.
Business Performance in the First Quarter of 2011
Retail Banking and Wealth Management (RBWM)*
Profit before income tax expense was C$7m for the first quarter of 2011, compared with profit of C$6m for the first quarter of 2010. The increase in profit is largely attributable to the wealth management business as a result of strong sales and higher client trading volumes.
The RBWM business continued to focus on becoming the leading international premium bank in Canada, offering our premium customers global connectivity through innovative products providing them access to emerging market exposure and deepening our relationships with them through proposition based product packages and pricing.
* In November 2010, our parent company announced that, with effect from March 2011, within the context of the customer group/global business view of HSBC Group's performance, Retail Banking and Wealth Management would be managed as a single global business. The business is the existing Personal Financial Services, with Global Asset Management moving from Global Banking and Markets to this new single business. Commentary in this news release related to Retail Banking and Wealth Management reflects the performance of Personal Financial Services and does not yet reflect the change in structure. These changes will be reflected in our second quarter 2011 results.
Net interest income was C$94m, a decrease of C$2m, or 2.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2010. This was primarily due to a combination of lower volumes and higher funding costs, partially offset by higher revenues in the securities business.
Net fee income was C$56m, an increase of C$8m, or 16.7%, compared to the first quarter of 2010 due to higher revenues from the wealth management business resulting from stronger sales and increased trading activity, and higher net Global Investor Immigration Services revenues.
Loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions of C$2m were C$7m, or 77.8%, lower compared to the first quarter of 2010 due to a release of collective impairment provisions as a result of lower volumes and delinquencies.
Total operating expenses were C$149m, an increase of C$12m, or 8.8% compared to the first quarter of 2010 due to higher staff costs, as discussed under the analysis of the consolidated results.
Commercial Banking (CMB)
Profit before income tax expense was C$137m for the first quarter of 2011, compared with profit of C$153m for the first quarter of 2010. The decrease in profit largely reflects the slow pace of the global economic recovery, continued client deleveraging and its effect on our loan portfolio.
The CMB business continued to focus on its position as the Best Bank for Small Business through our Business Direct strategy and as the Leading International Bank for business by continuing to strengthen our cross border capabilities, particularly through our investment in Eastern Canada.
Net interest income was C$173m, a decrease of C$21m, or 10.8%, compared to the first quarter of 2010. Net interest income decreased as loan volumes declined by 8.4% due to client deleveraging, partially offset by growth in deposits.
Net fee income was C$69m for the first quarter of 2011, an increase of C$12m, or 21.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2010, driven largely by the growth of fees from bankers' acceptances and other credit-related products.
Loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions decreased by C$13m, or 43.3%, to C$17m compared to the first quarter of 2010. A decrease in the loan portfolio, improved credit quality, and a reduction in the non-performing loans portfolio resulted in reduced levels of individually assessed impairment charges in the energy, wholesale and retail trade sectors and a release of collectively assessed impairments.
Total operating expenses were C$96m, an increase of C$17m, or 21.5%, over the same period in 2010 due largely to investments in our business, including personnel and marketing.
Global Banking and Markets (GBM)
Profit before income tax expense was C$79m for the first quarter of 2011, compared with profit of C$54m for the first quarter of 2010. The increase was mainly due to an increase in net interest income from reductions in funding and liquidity costs, higher available-for-sale asset balances and the positive impact from increases in the Bank of Canada interest rates, as well as gains from the disposal of certain financial investments.
The GBM business continued to focus on becoming the International Bank of choice by building a client-driven franchise serving the global needs of our core clients, delivering global products to Canadian clients and Canadian products to global clients.
Net interest income was C$49m, an increase of C$27m, or 122.7%, compared to the first quarter of 2010. This reflects the increase in the Bank of Canada interest rates, the benefit of higher available-for-sale asset balances and higher client spreads. Funding and liquidity costs also decreased due to the stability in the financial markets.
Net fee income was C$28m, a decrease of C$5m, or 15.2%, compared to the first quarter of 2010. This was caused by a decrease in credit fees due to a decrease in the loans outstanding and a decrease in advisory fees. This was partially offset by an increase in asset management fees on higher funds under management due to strong net sales and favourable equity market conditions.
Net trading income decreased by C$1m to C$21m in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010. Foreign exchange revenues increased due to strong customer activities, but were offset by a decrease in rates and credit trading revenues.
Gains from financial investmentsof C$16m from the disposal of assets held as available-for-sale were realized in the first quarter of 2011, which was a C$13m increase from the first quarter of 2010. As a result of improved market conditions, a portfolio of preferred shares was sold for a gain of C$6m and gains of C$10m were recognized on the sale of certain government and bank debt securities.
Loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions were nil in the current quarter. A net recovery of C$2m was recorded in the first quarter of 2010 due to the release of collective impairment charges.
Total operating expenses were C$36m, an increase of C$7m, or 24.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2010 due to certain restructuring costs incurred and an increase in branch operation costs.
Consumer Finance (CF)
CF recorded a profit before income tax expense of C$8m for the first quarter of 2011, compared with a profit of C$18m for the first quarter of 2010. This decline was primarily due to a decrease in net interest income as a result of lower average receivables.
The primary focus of CF continued to be the improvement of the sales force's productivity and managing risk and credit quality.
Net interest income for the first quarter was C$70m, a decrease of C$13m, or 15.7%, compared with C$83m for first quarter of 2010. Average receivables declined by approximately C$0.5bn, or 16.0%, resulting in lower net interest income in the first quarter of 2011 compared with the same period in 2010. The lower average receivables were a result of credit tightening decisions taken in 2007 and 2008.
Net fee income increased by C$2m, or 25.0%, to C$10m in the first quarter of 2011, compared to the first quarter of 2010, mainly due to higher credit card interchange income, emanating from higher credit card transaction volumes and lower rewards costs.
Loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions were C$30m, a decrease of C$2m, or 6.3%, compared to the first quarter of 2010, primarily due to lower receivables and delinquencies as a result of improved market conditions and a continued focus on improving the credit quality of the portfolios.
Total operating expenses of C$43m increased by C$2m, or 4.9%, compared to the first quarter of 2010, primarily due to higher marketing costs.
Other
Activities or transactions which do not relate directly to the above business segments are reported in Other. The main items reported under Other include a net loss from financial instruments designated at fair value and revenue and expense recoveries related to information technology activities performed on behalf of the HSBC Group companies. A loss before income tax expense of C$8m was recorded in Other in the first quarter of 2011, compared to a loss of C$7m in the first quarter of 2010 due to the impact of narrowing credit spreads on the fair value of our own debt obligations.
Dividends
During the first quarter of 2011, the bank declared and paid C$75m in dividends on HSBC Bank Canada common shares, unchanged from the same period in 2010.
Regular quarterly dividends of 31.875 cents per share have been declared on HSBC Bank Canada Class 1 Preferred Shares - Series C, 31.25 cents per share on Class 1 Preferred Shares - Series D, 41.25 cents per share on Class 1 Preferred Shares - Series E and 7.75 cents per share on Class 2 Preferred Shares - Series B. Dividends will be paid on 30 June 2011, for shareholders of record on 15 June 2011.
Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS")
These first quarter results have been prepared on an IFRS basis. As previously disclosed in our 2010 interim and annual reports, we adopted IFRS on 1 January 2011 and aligned our reporting format with our parent company, HSBC Holdings plc, which adopted IFRS in 2005. All prior period amounts referenced in this news release, which were previously prepared under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP"), have been restated on an IFRS basis.
The net impact of the adoption of IFRS on our opening shareholders' equity at the transition date of 1 January 2010 was a decrease of C$146m, primarily resulting from changes in accounting for securitized mortgages and employee defined benefit plans. In addition, non-controlling interests of C$430m, which was presented outside of shareholders' equity under Canadian GAAP, has been reclassified as a component of total equity under IFRS. Total assets were C$7.4bn higher, primarily due to the recognition of securitized mortgages that were derecognized from the balance sheet under Canadian GAAP.
The restated profit for the period for the first quarter of 2010 was C$154m on an IFRS basis, which is an increase of C$55m compared to the net income previously reported under Canadian GAAP of C$99m. The most significant differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS affecting the profit for the restated and future periods are related to the change in accounting for securitized mortgages and the associated swap transactions, which were marked-to-market under Canadian GAAP but are not required to be recognized under IFRS because the assets and risk are consolidated within our financial results, and foreign exchange translation gains and losses on available-for-sale financial assets, which were recorded in other comprehensive income under Canadian GAAP but are recorded in income under IFRS.
A detailed description of the impact of the transition to IFRS on our accounting policies and a quantification of the significant differences between IFRS and Canadian GAAP was presented in the Management's Discussion and Analysis in our 2010 Annual Report. An update to that discussion will be included in our First Quarter 2011 Interim Report.
IFRS and related non-IFRS measures used in this News Release
The bank uses both IFRS and certain non-IFRS financial measures to assess performance. Securities regulators require that companies caution readers that earnings and other measures that have been adjusted to a basis other than IFRS do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. The following outlines various non-IFRS measures that are regularly monitored by management:
Return on average common equity - Profit attributable to common shareholders on an annualized basis divided by average common equity, which is calculated using month-end balances of common equity for the period.
Post-tax return on average assets - Profit attributable to common shareholders on an annualized basis divided by average assets, which is calculated using average daily balances for the period.
Post-tax return on average risk weighted assets - Profit attributable to common shareholders on an annualized basis divided by the average monthly balances of risk weighted assets for the period. Risk weighted assets are calculated using guidelines issued by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada ("OSFI") in accordance with the Basel II capital adequacy framework.
Cost efficiency ratio - Calculated as total operating expenses for the period divided by net operating income before loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions for the period.
Adjusted cost efficiency ratio - Cost efficiency ratio adjusted to reflect intra-group charges and recoveries from HSBC Group entities on a net basis, consistent with our reporting to our Parent. These revenues and expenses are reported on a gross basis in "other operating income" and "general and administrative expenses" in our consolidated financial statements.
Net interest income, net fee income and net trading income as a percentage of total operating income - Net interest income, net fee income and net trading income for the period divided by net operating income before loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions for the period.
Ratio of customer advances to customer accounts - Loans and advances to customers divided by customer accounts, using period-end balances.
Average total shareholders' equity to average total assets - average shareholders equity is calculated using month-end balances of total shareholders' equity for the period and average total assets are calculated using average daily balances for the period.
Caution concerning forward-looking statements
This document may contain forward-looking information, including statements regarding the business and anticipated actions of HSBC Bank Canada.
