The Canadian Personal and Commercial Banking segment posted net income of $1.83 billion, up 3% year over year. Revenue reached a record $5.15 billion, a 5% increase driven by loan and deposit volume expansion.
On the US Retail segment, excluding the bank’s stake in The Charles Schwab Corporation, saw reported net income fall 79% year over year to $143 million. Adjusted net income declined 15% to $839 million. The firm said that results were impacted by substantial balance sheet restructuring charges, ongoing governance and control investments (particularly in BSA/AML remediation), and higher credit loss provision.
Wealth Management and Insurance net income rose 23% year over year to $680 million, while Wholesale Banking reported net income of $299 million, up 46% from Q1 2024.
While recognized in Q2 2025 rather than Q1, TD’s complete divestiture of its remaining equity stake in Schwab for proceeds of approximately US$14.6 billion is expected to yield a net gain of $8.6 billion. Pro forma estimates suggest an approximate 238 basis-point boost to TD’s Common Equity Tier 1 ratio from Q1 levels, with an anticipated rise to around 14.2% if the bank completes its planned $8.0 billion in share repurchases.
TD’s non-interest expenses of $8.07 billion in Q1 2025 showed a marginal rise from $8.03 billion a year ago. Management noted that expenses remain “somewhat elevated,” driven in part by integration costs, US remediation spending, and governance investments.
Provision for credit losses also increased to $1.21 billion from $1.00 billion in the same quarter last year and from $1.11 billion last quarter.
The bank declared dividends at $1.05 per fully paid common share payable on and after April 30, 2025.
TD last traded at $85.67 on the TSX.
