Financial Commentary

 

Overview

 

HSBC Bank Canada recorded a profit of C$220m for the first quarter of 2012, an increase of C$60m, or 37.5% compared with C$160m for the first quarter of 2011. Profit attributable to common shareholders was C$202m, an increase of C$60m, or 42.3% over the first quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily due to a gain of C$84m resulting from the sale of the full service retail brokerage business as well as increased net interest income and reduced operating expenses. This was partially offset by restructuring charges of C$36m mostly relating to the wind down of the consumer finance business and lower net fee income. Excluding the gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business, the restructuring charges and after income tax expense, HSBC Bank Canada's profit for the period was C$173m, an increase of C$13m, or 8.1% over the same period in 2011. The return on average common equity was 19.9% for the quarter, an increase from 16.6% in the same period in 2011 due to the gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business offset by restructuring charges. Excluding the gain and restructuring charges, the adjusted return on average common equity was 15.3% for the first quarter of 2012.

 

Commenting on the results, Lindsay Gordon, President and Chief Executive Officer of HSBC Bank Canada, said:

 

"The bank's profit this quarter showed good growth over the same quarter in 2011 as a result of increased net interest income and decreased operating expenses even after excluding the impact of the sale of the full service retail brokerage business and restructuring charges arising from the wind-down of the consumer finance business. We are focused on growing HSBC Bank Canada by continuing to improve the efficiency of our business and investing in our core businesses in Commercial Banking, Global Banking and Markets, and Retail Banking and Wealth Management to meet the needs of HSBC Canada customers in the years ahead."

 

Analysis of Consolidated Financial Results for the First Quarter of 2012

 

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2012 was C$398m, compared with C$382m for the first quarter of 2011, an increase of C$16m, or 4.2%. The first quarter of 2012 showed an increase of C$5m, or 1.3% compared with C$393m reported in the prior quarter. Net interest income increased marginally due to growth in average interest earning assets of C$0.5bn from the first quarter in 2011 (C$0.6bn from the prior quarter) offset by spread compression due to re-pricing to lower interest rates. Net interest income also benefited from refund interest received from the Canada Revenue Agency.

 

Net fee income for the first quarter of 2012 was C$143m, compared with C$163m for the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of C$20m, or 12.3%. The first quarter of 2012 decreased by C$14m, or 8.9% compared with C$157m for the prior quarter. The sale of the full service retail brokerage business resulted in reductions in fees from funds under management and brokerage commissions. Excluding the effect of the sale of the full service retail brokerage business, net fee income for the first quarter of 2012 increased by C$13m and C$5m compared with the first and fourth quarters of 2011 respectively, resulting from increases in fees from credit facilities and the global immigration investor program.

Net trading income for the first quarter of 2012 was C$40m, compared with C$37m for the first quarter of 2011, an increase of C$3m, or 8.1%, and an increase of C$9m, or 29.0% compared with C$31m reported in the prior quarter. The main factor contributing to the increase over the first quarter in 2011 was the positive impact from mark to market accounting gains and losses arising from economic hedges and hedge ineffectiveness. The increase is partially offset by lower foreign exchange revenue resulting from lower trading activities.

 

Net loss from financial instruments designated at fair value. The bank designates certain subordinated debentures and other liabilities to be recorded at fair value. As credit spreads narrowed in the first quarter of 2012, the change in fair value of these balances resulted in a charge of C$14m in the period, compared to a charge of C$8m for the same quarter in 2011.

 

Gains less losses from financial investments for the first quarter of 2012 were C$17m, little changed compared with C$16m for the first quarter of 2011.

 

Other operating income for the first quarter of 2012 was C$13m, compared with C$20m for the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of C$7m. The first quarter of 2012 increased by C$35m compared with a loss of C$22m in the prior quarter. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2011 is due a reduction in the delivery of technology services to HSBC Group companies. The fourth quarter of 2011 was lower compared to the first quarter of 2012 because it included a C$42m write-down in the value of investment property.

 

Gain on the sale of full service retail brokerage business. The sale of the full service retail brokerage business closed effective 1 January 2012. The bank recorded a gain of C$84m, net of assets written off and directly related costs. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2012 and fourth quarter of 2011, C$2m and C$14m respectively of restructuring charges were incurred either directly relating to this transaction or from actions undertaken within the business arising as a result of the decision to sell the business.

 

Loan impairment charges and other credit risk provisions of C$48m were recorded in the first quarter of 2012 little changed compared with C$49m for the first quarter of 2011 and are C$6m lower, or 11.1%, compared to C$54m for the prior quarter. The decrease was due to improved credit quality in the bank's commercial loan portfolio.

 

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2012 were C$342m. Excluding restructuring charges of C$36m, total operating expenses were C$306m compared with C$339m in the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of C$33m, or 9.7%. The reduction in operating expenses is largely attributable to a C$23m reduction relating to the full service retail brokerage business included in the first quarter of 2011. The remaining reduction is as a result of cost management initiatives which reduced employee compensation and benefits as well as a reduction in activity and expenses related to delivery of technology services to HSBC Group companies. The adjusted cost efficiency ratio for the first quarter improved to 49.2% compared with 54.9% in 2011 and 57.5% in the prior quarter. Excluding the impact of restructuring costs and the gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business, the adjusted cost efficiency ratio was 50.1% for the current quarter compared to 55.0% in the prior quarter.

 

Restructuring charges of C$36m were recognized in the first quarter of 2012 mainly relating to the provisions made for the restructuring and wind-down of the bank's consumer finance business.

 
Income tax expense. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2012 was 24.7%, compared with 28.3% in the first quarter of 2011. The decrease in the quarter was largely due to a reduction in statutory tax rates and the manner in which tax is computed on the gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business.

 

Statement of Financial Position

Total assets at 31 March 2012 were C$80.7bn, an increase of C$0.7bn from 31 December 2011, primarily due to increases in trading assets of C$1.2bn; increases in loans and advances to customers of C$1.0bn; and an increase in financial investments of C$1.2bn offset by a decrease in loans and advances to banks of C$3.0bn. Liquidity remained strong at 31 March 2012, with C$27.9bn of cash and balances at central banks, items in the course of collection from other banks, highly liquid trading assets, short term loans and advances to banks and financial investments, compared to C$28.5bn at 31 December 2011. Loans and advances to customers increased to C$45.4bn from C$44.4bn at 31 December 2011, primarily due an increase in the balance of reverse repurchase agreements with customers. Excluding reverse repurchase agreements, loans and advances increased by C$0.3bn, primarily due to an increase in our commercial loan portfolio.

 

Gross impaired loans were C$729m, an increase of C$51m compared with C$678m at 31 December 2011 due to the impairment of a small number of specific loans. However, they were C$128m lower than at 31 March 2011. Total impaired loans net of individually assessed allowances for credit losses were C$525m at 31 March 2012, compared with C$470m at 31 December 2011. Total impaired loans include C$59m (31 December 2011 - C$59m) of Consumer Finance loans, for which impairment is assessed collectively. The collective allowance applicable to Consumer Finance loans was C$95m compared to C$89m at 31 December 2011. The total collective allowance was C$335m compared to C$329m at 31 December 2011.

 

Total customer accounts increased to C$47.0bn at 31 March 2012 from C$46.6bn at 31 December 2011. The main increases were in fixed date personal deposits and interest-bearing current accounts.

 

Debt securities in issue increased to C$14.0bn at 31 March 2012 from C$13.3bn at 31 December 2011, primarily due to the issue by the bank of C$1.0bn in medium term notes.

 

Total assets under administration

Funds under management were C$17.3bn at 31 March 2012, a decrease of C$14.8bn since 31 March 2011 and a decrease of C$9.1bn since 31 December 2011. This was due to the sale of the bank's full service retail brokerage business (C$15.9bn at 31 March 2011 and C$10.6bn at 31 December 2011). Excluding the funds under management relating to the full service retail brokerage business, total assets under administration increased by C$1.0bn to C$18.3bn compared with the first quarter of 2011 and C$1.5bn compared with the prior quarter.

 


Business Performance in the First Quarter of 2012

 

Retail Banking and Wealth Management

 

Profit before income tax expense was C$93m for the first quarter of 2012, an increase of C$79m compared with the same period in 2011. Results for 2012 included a C$76m gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business and the benefit of refund interest received from the Canada Revenue Agency partially offset by restructuring costs of C$2m. In addition, profit increased due to higher net interest income resulting from higher average mortgage balances and savings deposits re-pricing at lower interest rates.

 

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2011, profit before income tax expense increased C$100m. In addition to the factors noted above, the fourth quarter of 2011 included a C$9m write-off of internally developed software costs and C$14m restructuring costs related to the sale of the full service retail brokerage business. 

 

Commercial Banking

 

Profit before income tax expense was C$158m for the first quarter of 2012, C$21m higher than the first quarter of 2011 and C$48m higher than the fourth quarter of 2011. The first quarter's results include the benefit of refund interest received from the Canada Revenue Agency while the prior quarter included a C$42m write-down in the carrying value of investment property. Excluding the impact of the refund interest and write-down, profit before income tax expense for first quarter of 2012 was C$153m, C$16m higher than the first quarter of 2011 and little changed over the fourth quarter of 2011. This was due to growth in average interest earning assets offset by spread compression due to re-pricing to lower interest rates. In addition, profit benefitted from higher fees from account services and credit facilities and a reduced provision for impaired loans due to improved credit quality.

 

Global Banking and Markets

 

Profit before income tax expense was C$86m for the first quarter of 2012, an increase of C$14m compared to the first quarter of 2011. The increase is mainly due to a gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business of C$8m, an increase in advisory and debt capital market fees, positive impact from mark to market accounting gains and losses arising from economic hedges and hedge ineffectiveness and a reduction in specific severance costs. These items were partially offset by a decrease in foreign exchange revenues due to lower volatility and related volume, a decrease in equity capital market fees and adjustments recorded in the carrying value due to changes in credit spreads of our own debt instruments classified as trading. Profit before income tax expense increased C$19m in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase is mainly due to a gain on the sale of the full service retail brokerage business, gains from the disposal of financial investments, positive impact from mark to market accounting gains and losses arising from economic hedges and hedge ineffectiveness and an increase in net interest income from Global Banking activities. This was partially offset by a decrease in foreign exchange revenues, a decrease in equity capital market fees, an increase in employee benefits costs related to timing of incentive payments, a reduction in the provision for variable incentive payments in the fourth quarter of 2011 and adjustments recorded in the carrying value due to changes in credit spreads of our own debt instruments classified as trading.

 

Consumer Finance

 

In March 2012, HSBC Financial Corporation Limited announced the winding down of the consumer finance business in Canada and, except for existing commitments, ceased origination of loans. Accordingly, C$34m in restructuring costs were incurred in the first quarter relating to employee severance, pension curtailment and changes in benefits plans, uneconomic contracts, onerous leases and impairment of leasehold improvements.

 

Excluding restructuring charges, the consumer finance business recorded a profit before income tax expense of C$17m for the first quarter of 2012 compared with a profit of C$8m for the same period during 2011 and unchanged compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. The improvement in profit from the first quarter in 2011 was due to cost management initiatives which resulted in decreased operating expenses.

 

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 gains and losses from the impact of changes in credit spreads on financial instruments designated at fair value, revenue and expense recoveries related to information technology activities performed on behalf of HSBC Group companies. A loss before income tax expense of C$28m was recorded in the first quarter of 2012, compared with a loss of C$8m for the first quarter of 2011. The variances from comparative periods are primarily due to the impact of changes in credit spreads on financial instruments designated at fair value and changes in intercompany revenue and expense recoveries relating to technology services delivered to other HSBC Group companies.

 

Dividends

 

During the first quarter of 2012, the bank declared and paid C$83m in dividends on its common shares, compared to C$75m for the same period in 2011. 

 

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 2012, for shareholders of record on 15 June 2012.

 


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 exclude gains and losses from financial instruments designated at fair value from net operating income before loan impairment charges.

 

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.

 

Core tier 1 capital - Tier 1 capital less non-controlling interests and preferred shares.

 

Core tier 1 capital ratio - Core tier 1 capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets.
