Laurentian Bank of Canada (LBC or the Bank) reported Q1 2021 net income of $44.8 million, a strong quarter-over-quarter (QOQ) increase of 22%, driven by growth in revenue, lower provisions for credit losses (PCL), and slightly lower operating expenses. Notably, the Bank's adjusted efficiency ratio improved by a further 100 basis points (bps) QOQ to 68.9% during Q1 2021 as the Bank continues to implement tighter cost controls.
