Non-GAAP Financial and Other Measures
In addition to financial measures based on generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
management uses non-GAAP financial measures to assess the Bank's underlying ongoing business
performance. Non-GAAP financial measures presented throughout this document are referred to as
"adjusted" measures and exclude amounts designated as adjusting items. Adjusting items include the
amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and certain items of significance that arise from
time to time which management believes are not reflective of underlying business performance. Non-
GAAP financial measures are not standardized financial measures under the financial reporting
framework used to prepare the financial statements of the Bank and might not be comparable to
similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. The Bank believes non-GAAP financial
measures are useful to readers in obtaining a better understanding of how management assesses
the Bank's performance and in analyzing trends.
The following tables show a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly
comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the primary financial statements of the Bank.

Business Highlights
Sale of Assets Under Administration of Laurentian Bank Securities (LBS)
The two transactions described below underscore the Bank's strategic focus on simplification, in line
with its strategic plan to concentrate on areas of business where it can win and be more
competitive.
Sale of assets under administration of LBS' retail full-service investment broker division to
iA Private Wealth Inc (iAPW)
On August 2, 2024, the Bank completed the sale of assets under administration of LBS' retail full-
service investment broker division to iAPW, a wholly owned subsidiary of Industrial Alliance
Insurance and Financial Services Inc. ("iA Financial Group"), as initially announced on April 4, 2024.
This transaction includes the transfer of more than $2 billion in assets under administration from LBS
to iAPW. The Bank expects to record net proceeds from the transaction of approximately $12 million
($10 million after income taxes) in fiscal 2024, mostly in the fourth quarter.
Sale of assets under administration of LBS' discount brokerage division to CI Investment
Services Inc (CIIS)
On August 12, 2024, the Bank announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell assets under
administration of LBS' discount brokerage division to CIIS, a wholly owned subsidiary of CI Financial
Corp.
The transaction includes the transfer of approximately $250 million in assets under administration
from LBS to CI Direct Trading, an online investment platform for self-directed investors and a
division of CIIS. Subject to regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to close before the end
of the calendar year. The net proceeds from this transaction are not anticipated to have a material
impact on the Bank's financial position.
Consolidated Results
Three months ended July 31, 2024 financial performance
Net income was $34.1 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.67 for the third quarter of
2024, compared with net income of $49.3 million and diluted earnings per share of $1.03 for the
third quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income was $43.1 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share
were $0.88 for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $57.6 million and $1.22 for the third quarter
of 2023.
Total revenue
Total revenue decreased by $4.3 million to $256.5 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared
with $260.8 million for the third quarter of 2023.
Net interest income decreased by $11.4 million to $180.8 million for the third quarter of 2024,
compared with $192.1 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was mainly due to lower
net interest income from lower commercial loan volumes. The net interest margin was 1.79% for the
third quarter of 2024 a decrease of 5 basis points compared with the third quarter of 2023, mainly
due to lower commercial loan volumes.
Other income increased by $7.0 million or 10% to $75.7 million for the third quarter of 2024,
compared with $68.7 million for the third quarter of 2023, mostly due to higher income from financial
instruments in the third quarter of 2024, partly offset by lower lending fees due to tempered
commercial real estate activity.
Provision for credit losses
The provision for credit losses was $16.3 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $13.3
million for the third quarter of 2023, an increase of $2.9 million mainly as a result of higher provisions
on impaired loans due to credit migration, partly offset by a release of provisions on performing
loans. The provision for credit losses as a percentage of average loans and acceptances was 18
basis points for the quarter, compared with 14 basis points for the same quarter a year ago. Refer
to the "Credit risk management" section on pages 15 to 17 of the Bank's MD&A for the third quarter
of 2024 and to Note 5 to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for more
information on provision for credit losses and allowances for credit losses.
Non-interest expenses
Non-interest expenses amounted to $200.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $10.2
million compared with the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted non-interest expenses increased by
$9.4 million or 5% to $188.1 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $178.7 million for
the third quarter of 2023.
Salaries and employee benefits amounted to $99.7 million for the third quarter of 2024, relatively
aligned compared with the third quarter of 2023.
Premises and technology costs were $51.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $2.0
million compared with the third quarter of 2023. The increase year-over-year is mainly due to higher
technology costs as the Bank is investing in its infrastructure and strategic priorities, partly offset by
lower amortization charges and rent expenses resulting from the impairment effected in the second
quarter of 2024.
Other non-interest expenses were $40.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $6.2
million compared with the third quarter of 2023 mainly resulting from higher regulatory expenses and
other costs related to various compliance projects, as well as higher professional fees to support the
Bank's strategic priorities.
Impairment and restructuring charges were $9.1 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with
$8.2 million for the third quarter of 2023. In the third quarter of 2024 restructuring charges of $9.1
million related to the simplification of the Bank's organizational structure and headcount reduction. In
the third quarter of 2023, this line-item included restructuring charges of $5.5 million resulting from
the right-sizing of the Bank's Capital Markets franchise, as well as charges of $2.7 million resulting
from the Bank's review of strategic options.
Efficiency ratio
The efficiency ratio on a reported basis increased to 78.1% for the third quarter of 2024, compared
with 72.9% for the third quarter of 2023, mainly as a result of lower revenues and higher non-interest
expenses as described above. The adjusted efficiency ratio increased to 73.3% for the third quarter
of 2024, compared to 68.5% for the third quarter of 2023, mainly for the same reasons.
Income taxes
For the third quarter of 2024, the income tax expense was $5.9 million, and the effective income tax
rate was 14.7%. For the third quarter of 2023, the income tax expense was $8.2 million, and the
effective income tax rate was 14.2%. For both quarters, the lower effective income tax rate
compared to the statutory income tax rate was mainly attributed to the lower taxation level of income
from foreign operations, as well as from the favourable effect of the interest paid semi-annually on
the limited recourse capital notes.
Financial Condition
As at July 31, 2024, total assets amounted to $47.5 billion, a 5% decrease compared with $49.9
billion as at October 31, 2023 mostly due to the lower level of loans.
Liquid assets
As at July 31, 2024, liquid assets as presented on the balance sheet amounted to $11.3 billion, a
decrease of $0.1 billion compared with $11.4 billion as at October 31, 2023. The Bank continues to
prudently manage its level of liquid assets. The Bank's funding sources remain well diversified and
sufficient to meet all liquidity requirements. Liquid assets represented 24% of total assets as at
July 31, 2024, compared with 23% as at October 31, 2023.
Loans
Loans and bankers' acceptances, net of allowances, stood at $34.9 billion as at July 31, 2024, a
decrease of $2.0 billion since October 31, 2023. Commercial loans and acceptances amounted to
$16.5 billion as at July 31, 2024, a decrease of $1.3 billion or 7% since October 31, 2023 mainly
resulting from lower real estate and inventory financing commercial loans. Personal loans of
$2.2 billion as at July 31, 2024 decreased by $0.4 billion from October 31, 2023, mainly as a result
of a decline in the investment loan portfolio driven by volatile market conditions and higher interest
rates. Residential mortgage loans of $16.4 billion as at July 31, 2024 decreased by $0.3 billion or
2% from October 31, 2023.
Deposits
Deposits decreased by $2.7 billion to $23.3 billion as at July 31, 2024 compared with $26.0 billion
as at October 31, 2023. Considering the loan volume reductions and an increase of $0.5 billion of
cost-effective long-term debt related to securitization activities, the Bank gradually reduced its
deposit basis and liquidity position. Personal deposits stood at $20.1 billion as at July 31, 2024, a
decrease of $2.2 billion compared with $22.3 billion as at October 31, 2023. Of note, personal
deposits sourced through the retail channel have been relatively stable compared with October 31,
2023. Personal notice and demand deposits from partnerships decreased by $1.2 billion since
October 31, 2023, and deposits from advisors and brokers decreased by $0.8 billion. Personal
deposits represented 86% of total deposits as at July 31, 2024, unchanged since October 31, 2023,
and contributed to the Bank's sound liquidity position. Business and other deposits decreased by
$0.5 billion over the same period to $3.2 billion as at July 31, 2024.
Debt related to securitization activities
Debt related to securitization activities increased by $0.5 billion or 4% compared with October 31,
2023 and stood at $13.3 billion as at July 31, 2024. During the year, new issuances of cost-effective
long-term debt related to securitization activities more than offset maturities of liabilities, as well as
normal repayments.
Shareholders' equity and regulatory capital
Shareholders' equity stood at $2.8 billion as at July 31, 2024 and decreased by $64.3 million
compared with October 31, 2023. Retained earnings decreased by $116.0 million compared to
October 31, 2023, mainly as a result of the cumulative net loss of $46.2 million and of dividends
amounting to $61.7 million. Accumulated other comprehensive income increased by $44.7 million
compared to October 31, 2023. For additional information, please refer to the Capital Management
section of the Bank's MD&A and to the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders' Equity
for the period ended July 31, 2024.
The Bank's book value per common share was $56.97 as at July 31, 2024 compared to $59.96 as
at October 31, 2023.
The CET1 capital ratio was 10.9% as at July 31, 2024, in excess of the minimum regulatory
requirement and the Bank's target management levels. The CET1 capital ratio increased by 100
basis points compared with October 31, 2023, mainly due to the risk-weighted assets reduction. The
Bank met OSFI's capital and leverage requirements throughout the quarter.
On August 29, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.47 per common
share, payable on November 1, 2024, to shareholders of record on October 1, 2024 This quarterly
dividend is equal to the dividend declared in the previous quarter and to the dividend declared in the
previous year. The Board also determined that shares attributed under the Bank's Shareholder
Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan will be made in common shares issued from
Corporate Treasury with a 2% discount.

factors include, but are not limited to general and market economic conditions; inflationary
pressures; the dynamic nature of the financial services industry in Canada, the U.S., and globally;
