Overview
HSBC Bank Canada recorded net income attributable to common shares for the nine months ended 30 September 2008 of C$418 million which was broadly unchanged from the C$419 million reported in the same period in 2007. Net income attributable to common shares for the quarter ended 30 September 2008 was C$121 million, a decrease of C$24 million, or 16.6 per cent, from C$145 million for the third quarter of 2007.
Results for the quarter and for the nine months ended 30 September 2008 were impacted by a loss of C$20 million after related income taxes, arising from the sale of the bank's C$1.5 billion automobile loan portfolio in July 2008. Net income attributable to common shares for the nine months ended 30 September 2007 were impacted by gains of C$21 million after related income taxes, from the sale of the bank's shares in the Montreal Exchange. Excluding these items, net income attributable to common shares for the nine months ended 30 September 2008 increased by 10.1 per cent over the same period last year and for the quarter, net income decreased by 2.8 per cent and 0.7 per cent respectively compared to the third quarter of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008.
Commenting on the results, Lindsay Gordon, President and Chief Executive Officer of HSBC Bank Canada, said: "After taking into account the impact of the sale of the bank's automobile loan portfolio, the results for the third quarter showed considerable resilience despite the ongoing volatility in international credit and liquidity markets.
"Our balance sheet is conservatively positioned, with strong capital ratios including a Tier 1 ratio of 10.6 per cent. We plan to continue our existing strategy of working with our customers to meet their personal and business needs while maintaining close control over credit quality. Our credit ratings are among the best of Canadian banks and we are part of the HSBC Group, one of the world's largest and most strongly capitalized banks. Over 100 million customers worldwide entrust HSBC with US$1.2 trillion in deposits."
Net interest income
Net interest income for the nine months ended 30 September 2008 was C$900 million compared with C$920 million for the same period last year, a decrease of C$20 million, or 2.2 per cent. Although average interest earning assets increased to C$58.3 billion from C$53.4 billion, this was offset by a decrease in net interest margin to 2.06 per cent compared with 2.30 per cent in 2007. Reductions in the prime rate during 2008 resulted in reduced interest income on our floating rate loans which was not offset by an equal reduction in interest expense as our deposits repriced downwards less quickly. In addition, wider credit spreads experienced across the banking industry adversely impacted the cost of wholesale funding.
Net interest income for the quarter ended 30 September 2008 was C$306 million compared with C$319 million for the same quarter in 2007, a decrease of C$13 million, or 4.1 per cent. Average interest earning assets for the quarter were C$58.7 billion, 8.1 per cent higher than the same period in 2007. However, this was offset by the effect of the challenging interest rate environment that adversely impacted the net interest margin, decreasing it to 2.07 per cent for the quarter ended 30 September 2008 from 2.33 per cent for the same period in 2007.
Net interest income for the third quarter of 2008 was C$10 million, or 3.4 per cent higher compared with the second quarter of 2008. Average interest earning assets increased to C$58.7 billion from C$58.2 billion in the previous quarter. The net interest margin of 2.07 per cent was four basis points higher than the previous quarter. This was primarily as a result of reducing the interest rate paid on deposits following reductions in the prime rate earlier in the year.
Non-interest revenue
For the nine months ended 30 September 2008, non-interest revenue was C$578 million, C$32 million, or 5.9 per cent, higher compared with C$546 million for the same period last year.
During the quarter, we recorded, as a reduction of other income, a loss of C$29 million on the disposal of a C$1.5 billion portfolio of automobile loans. This was partially offset by significant increases in activity in the bank's investor immigration programme as well as increases in insurance commissions. Following release of the terms of the expected settlement of the "Montreal Accord" and the impact of wider credit spreads on the value of the bank's holdings of Canadian non-bank sponsored Asset Backed Commercial Paper ("non-bank ABCP"), during the third quarter we recorded a further provision of C$15 million of which C$2 million was recorded as a reduction of trading income, and C$13 million as a loss on available-for-sale securities. The reduction of gains on available-for-sale securities compared to the prior year is also impacted by a C$26 million gain that was recorded in 2007 on the sale of the bank's shares in the Montreal Exchange.
Revenues from customer banking activities, including deposit and payment service charges and credit fees, were higher due to increased customer activity reflecting the underlying strength of the banking business. Foreign exchange revenues were higher due to initiatives undertaken to improve business with customers. Investment administration fees were higher as a result of increased customer portfolios. Securitization income increased significantly, partially due to increased activity as well as benefiting from the effect of falling interest rates. Trading revenue was higher as widening credit spreads had a considerable positive impact on the value of certain debt obligations recorded at fair value. Further, trading volumes in fixed income instruments increased with changing interest rates as well. Foreign exchange trading revenue grew on increased customer activity and volatile foreign exchange markets. Capital market fees were lower due to lower market activity in 2008 compared to 2007 caused by market uncertainties, particularly new issue and underwriting mandates.
Non-interest revenue was C$164 million for the third quarter of 2008 compared with C$184 million in the same quarter of 2007, a decrease of C$20 million, or 10.9 per cent. Despite the uncertain markets, deposit and payment service charges and credit fees increased. Securitization income was higher mainly due to increased activity compared to the prior period in 2007. Capital market fees were lower resulting from lower activity owing to uncertainties in the markets. Trading revenue was lower, mainly due to lower impacts of changes in the carrying values of certain debt obligations recorded at fair value compared to the previous year. In addition, the third quarter was impacted by the loss on disposal of the automobile loan portfolio and the additional non-bank ABCP provision.
Non-interest revenue for the third quarter of 2008 was C$31 million lower compared with C$195 million recorded in the previous quarter, mainly due to the loss on disposal of the automobile loan portfolio and the additional non-bank ABCP provision. In addition, capital market fees were lower arising from uncertain markets and securitization income was reduced due to lower activity than the previous quarter. This was partially offset by higher trading revenue mostly arising from the impact of wider credit spreads on the fair value of certain debt obligations.
Non-interest expenses
For the nine months ended 30 September 2008, non-interest expenses were C$769 million compared with C$744 million for the same period last year, an increase of C$25 million, or 3.4 per cent. Salaries and benefits grew, reflecting increased staff levels as we expanded the branch network, the direct bank and the payments and cash management businesses. These were offset by lower variable compensation arising from lower capital market fees and lower pension costs. Premises costs increased by C$12 million due to the new branches as well as increases in information technology costs. Other non-interest expenses were higher due to continued investments in the business, as well as higher customer transaction and marketing costs.
Non-interest expenses were C$258 million for the third quarter of 2008 compared with C$246 million for the same quarter of 2007, an increase of C$12 million, or 4.9 per cent. Salary expenses grew reflecting increased numbers of staff. Premises and equipment and other expenses increased mainly as a result of additional investments in information technology, and marketing expenses together with increased operating losses.
Non-interest expenses for the third quarter were little changed compared to C$259 million for the second quarter of 2008. Salaries and benefits were lower as a result of lower variable compensation arising from lower capital market fees and lower pension and benefit expenses. Premises and equipment expenses decreased due to lower property costs in the third quarter offset by higher marketing expenses and operating losses.
Credit quality and provision for credit losses
For the nine months ended 30 September 2008, the provision for credit losses was C$72 million compared with C$43 million for the same period in 2007. An increase in retail provisions primarily related to automobile loans and specific provisions relating to the commercial construction, manufacturing and export sectors in 2008 resulted in an increase of C$29 million compared with the same period in 2007.
The provision for credit losses was C$22 million for the third quarter of 2008, little changed from C$21 million recorded in the third quarter of 2007, and C$25 million for the second quarter of 2008.
Gross impaired credit exposures were C$295 million compared with C$290 million at 30 June 2008, and C$206 million at 30 September 2007. Total impaired exposures, net of specific allowances for credit losses, were C$193 million at 30 September 2008 compared with C$194 million at 30 June 2008 and C$139 million at 30 September 2007.
The general allowance for credit losses of C$259 million at 30 September 2008 is C$10 million lower than C$269 million at 30 June 2008 and 30 September 2007. This reduction occurred following the sale of the C$1.5 billion automobile loan portfolio during the quarter. The total allowance for credit losses, as a percentage of loans and acceptances outstanding, was 0.79 per cent at 30 September 2008 compared with 0.78 per cent at 30 June 2008 and 0.75 per cent at 30 September 2007. Although the bank has experienced a small increase in non-accrual loans, the overall credit quality of the portfolio remains sound reflecting the bank's prudent lending standards. The bank considers the total allowance for credit losses to be appropriate given the credit quality of its portfolios and the current credit environment.
Income taxes
On a year-to-date basis in 2008, the effective tax rate was 30.3 per cent compared with 34.6 per cent for the same period last year, primarily due to lower statutory tax rates. The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2008 was 32.1 per cent, which compared to 35.2 per cent in the same quarter of 2007 and 26.5 per cent in the second quarter of 2008, which benefited from the resolution of certain tax deductions from prior years.
Balance sheet
Total assets at 30 September 2008 were C$66.9 billion, an increase of C$4.0 billion from 31 December 2007, and C$3.3 billion from 30 September 2007. Commercial loans and bankers' acceptances increased by C$1.1 billion from the end of 2007, as commercial activity continued to grow. Although residential mortgage originations increased, this was offset by C$2.7 billion in securitizations in 2008 resulting in a net decrease of about C$440 million. Consumer loans grew by about C$390 million. There was an increase of C$900 million related to part of the industry restructuring of certain non-bank ABCP conduits where the bank re-purchased personal loans that it had previously securitized. During the third quarter, the bank also exercised an option to purchase approximately C$160 million of loans previously securitized. In addition, the bank's consumer loans and other personal lines of credit increased by about C$830 million. These increases were partially offset by the sale of a portfolio of C$1.5 billion of automobile loans. The securities portfolio and securities purchased under reverse repurchase arrangements increased by C$3.4 billion from 31 December 2007, improving the bank's liquidity position.
Total deposits increased by C$2.3 billion to C$51.2 billion at 30 September 2008 from C$48.9 billion at 31 December 2007 and were C$3.7 billion higher compared with C$47.5 billion at 30 September 2007. Personal deposits grew by C$1.4 billion over 31 December 2007 mainly driven by growth in the number of High Rate and Direct Savings accounts. In the same period commercial deposits also increased reflecting strong growth among our commercial clients, while wholesale deposits decreased marginally.
Total assets under administration
Although the bank benefited from good investment sales, recent declines in equity markets had an adverse impact in funds under management which were C$24.6 billion at 30 September 2008 compared with C$27.1 billion at 30 June 2008 and C$27.1 billion at 30 September 2007. Including custody and administration balances, total assets under administration were C$33.3 billion compared with C$37.8 billion at 30 June 2008 and C$36.4 billion at 30 September 2007.
Capital management
On 1 January 2008, the bank adopted a revised Basel Capital Framework commonly known as "Basel II" to comply with new regulations issued by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada ("OSFI"). In February 2008, OSFI provided the bank with conditional approval, subject to certain conditions, to use the Advanced Internal Ratings Based approach for calculating regulatory capital under the new Framework. In September 2008, OSFI has advised the bank that it has satisfied the conditions that will allow the bank to reduce the transitional floor for Regulatory Capital, as required under OSFI's capital adequacy guidelines, from 100 per cent to 90 per cent, commencing with the third quarter 2008 regulatory reporting period. The bank's Tier 1 and overall capital ratios calculated in accordance with the new framework were 10.6 per cent and 13.2 per cent respectively, compared with 9.3 per cent for Tier 1 and 11.5 per cent overall at 30 June 2008.
Capital adequacy ratios calculated in accordance with the previous "Basel I" framework were 8.5 per cent for Tier 1 and 10.9 per cent overall at 30 September 2007. Further details of the bank's capital management process, including details of the calculation of capital adequacy under the new "Basel II" framework will be included in the bank's third quarter 2008 report to shareholders.
Accounting policies adopted in 2008
Effective 1 January 2008, the bank adopted new Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA) Handbook Standards requiring additional disclosures particularly relating to the management of risk associated with Capital and Financial Instruments. There was no impact on reported results in 2008 arising from the adoption of these new presentation and disclosure standards, which will be reflected in HSBC Bank Canada's third quarter 2008 Report to Shareholders. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.
Dividends
During the third quarter of 2008, C$70 million in dividends were declared and paid on the bank's common shares.
Regular quarterly dividends of 31.875 cents per share have been declared on HSBC Bank Canada Class 1 Preferred Shares - Series C and 31.25 cents per share on Class 1 Preferred Shares - Series D. The dividends will be payable on 31 December 2008, to shareholders of record on 15 December 2008.

Caution regarding forward-looking financial statements
This document may contain forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the business and anticipated financial performance of HSBC Bank Canada. These statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause such differences include legislative or regulatory developments, technological change, global capital market activity, changes in government monetary and economic policies, changes in prevailing interest rates, inflation level and general economic conditions in geographic areas where HSBC Bank Canada operates. Canada is an extremely competitive banking environment and pressures on interest rates and the bank's net interest margin may arise from actions taken by individual banks acting alone. Varying economic conditions may also affect equity and foreign exchange markets, which could also have an impact on the bank's revenues. The factors disclosed above may not be complete and there could be other uncertainties and potential risk factors not considered here which may impact the bank's results and financial condition.
