TD's Q2 2020 Earnings Cut in Half by Significant Reserve Build

The Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD or the Bank) reported Q2 2020 net income of $1.5 billion, a quarter-over-quarter (QOQ) decline of 49%, reflecting substantially higher provisions for credit losses (PCL) caused by the economic impact of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic and lower oil prices. Positively, the Bank's income before provisions and taxes (IBPT) grew 9% from the linked quarter to $5.0 billion, mainly a result of lower insurance claims, variable compensation, and expenses associated with the U.S. strategic cards portfolio. The Bank experienced lower sequential revenue, with net interest margin compression and reduced customer activity largely affecting both Canadian and U.S. Retail. The Bank reported a higher contribution from TD Ameritrade while Wholesale Banking benefitted from higher debt underwriting fees.
