VersaBank (the “Bank”) operates as a Schedule I bank under the Bank Act (Canada) and is regulated by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (“OSFI”). The Bank, whose shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange and NASDAQ Stock Exchange, provides commercial lending and banking services to select niche markets in Canada and the United States as well as cybersecurity services through the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary DRT Cyber Inc. The Bank’s management has established two reportable operating segments, those being Digital Banking and DRTC (cybersecurity services). Details of the Bank’s segment reporting are set out in note 16.
The Bank is incorporated in Canada, and maintains its registered head office at Suite 2002, 140 Fullarton Street, London, Ontario, Canada, N6A 5P2.
a) Statement of compliance:
These interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 – Interim Financial Reporting and do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements. These interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Bank’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended October 31, 2021.

Three month & six month periods ended April 30, 2022 and 2021
d) Use of estimates and judgements:
In preparing these interim Consolidated Financial Statements, management has exercised judgement and developed estimates in applying accounting policies and generating reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant judgement was applied in assessing significant changes in credit risk on financial assets and in the selection of relevant forward-looking information in assessing the Bank’s allowance for expected credit losses on its financial assets as described in note 4 – Loans. Estimates are applied in the determination of the allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets and the measurement of deferred income taxes. It is reasonably possible, on the basis of existing knowledge, that actual results may vary from that expected in the development of these estimates. This could result in material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and/or liabilities affected in the future.
Estimates were applied by management in determining the fair value of stock options granted in the current quarter as described in note 8.
Available forward-looking information, including forecast macroeconomic indicator and industry performance trend data remain somewhat dynamic and are influenced by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the velocity and magnitude of monetary policy tightening and the impact of same on inflation levels and consumers’ ability to service household debt, the endurance of a tight labour market, geo-political risk precipitated by the crisis in Ukraine and the impact of the crisis on global supply chains as well as the emergence and impact of new variants of COVID-19. The dynamic nature of these macroeconomic influences and the trends exhibited by the available forward looking information derived from same results in the assumptions, judgements and estimates made by management in the preparation of these interim Consolidated Financial Statements being subject to some uncertainty.
Estimates and their underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are applied prospectively once they are known.
3. | Significant accounting policies and future accounting changes: |
The accounting policies applied by the Bank in these interim Consolidated Financial Statements are the same as those applied by the Bank as at and for the year ended October 31, 2021 and are detailed in note 3 of the Bank’s 2021 audited Consolidated Financial Statements. During the current year the Bank updated or incorporated the following significant accounting policies:
Segment reporting:
Effective the quarter ended January 31, 2022, the Bank is presenting segmented information in its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS 8 Segment Reporting. The Bank’s management has established two reportable operating segments, those being Digital Banking and DRTC (cybersecurity services). Details of the Bank’s segment reporting are set out in note 16.
The Bank organizes its lending portfolio into the following four broad asset categories: Point of Sale Loans and Leases, Commercial Real Estate Mortgages, Commercial Real Estate Loans, and Public Sector and Other Financing. These categories have been established in the Bank’s proprietary, internally developed asset management system and have been designed to catalogue individual lending assets as a function primarily of their key risk drivers, the nature of the underlying collateral, and the applicable market segment.

Three month & six month periods ended April 30, 2022 and 2021
The Point-of-Sale Loans and Leases (“POS Financing”) asset category is comprised of Point of Sale Loan and Lease Receivables acquired from the Bank’s broad network of origination and servicing partners as well as Warehouse Loans that provide bridge financing to the Bank’s origination and servicing partners for the purpose of accumulating and seasoning practical volumes of individual loans and leases prior to the Bank purchasing the cashflow receivables derived from same.
The Commercial Real Estate Mortgages (“CRE Mortgages”) asset category is comprised of Commercial and Residential Construction Mortgages, Commercial Term Mortgages, Commercial Insured Mortgages and Land Mortgages. While all of these loans would be considered commercial loans or business-to-business loans, the underlying credit risk exposure is diversified across both the commercial and retail market segments, and further, the portfolio benefits from diversity in its underlying security in the form of a broad range of collateral properties.
The Commercial Real Estate Loans (“CRE Loans”) asset category is comprised primarily of Condominium Corporation Financing loans.
The Public Sector and Other Financing (“PSOF”) asset category is comprised primarily of Public Sector Loans and Leases, a small balance of Corporate Loans and Leases and Single Family Residential Conventional and Insured Mortgages.

The Bank’s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of its financial assets. The Bank holds security against the majority of its loans in the form of mortgage interests over property, other registered securities over assets, guarantees or cash reserves on loan and lease receivables included in the POS Financing portfolio (see note 7).
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Bank must maintain an allowance for expected credit losses (“ECL”) that is adequate, in management’s opinion, to absorb all credit related losses in the Bank’s lending and treasury portfolios. Under IFRS 9 the Bank’s ECL is estimated using the expected credit loss methodology and is comprised of expected credit losses recognized on both performing loans, and non-performing, or impaired loans even if no actual loss event has occurred.
Assessment of significant increase in credit risk (“SICR”)
At each reporting date, the Bank assesses whether or not there has been a SICR for loans since initial recognition by comparing, at the reporting date, the risk of default occurring over the remaining expected life against the risk of default at initial recognition.
SICR is a function of the loan’s internal risk rating assignment, internal watchlist status, loan review status and delinquency status which are updated as necessary in response to changes including, but not limited to, changes in macroeconomic and/or market conditions, changes in a borrower’s credit risk profile, and changes in the strength of the underlying security, including guarantor status, if a guarantor exists.
Quantitative models may not always be able to capture all reasonable and supportable information that may indicate a SICR. As a result, qualitative factors may be considered to supplement such a gap.

Examples include changes in adjudication criteria for a particular group of borrowers or asset categories or changes in portfolio composition as well as changes in Canadian macroeconomic trends attributable to changes in monetary policy, inflation, employment rates, consumer behaviour and public health advice related to the continued management of the impact of new variants of COVID-19.
Expected credit loss model - Estimation of expected credit losses
Expected credit losses are an estimate of a loan’s expected cash shortfalls discounted at the effective interest rate, where a cash shortfall is the difference between the contractual cash flows that are due to the Bank and the cash flows that the Bank actually expects to receive.
Forward-Looking Information
The Bank incorporates the impact of future economic conditions, or more specifically forward-looking information into the estimation of expected credit losses at the credit risk parameter level. This is accomplished via the credit risk parameter models and proxy datasets that the Bank utilizes to develop probability of default (“PD”), and loss given default (“LGD”), term structure forecasts for its loans. The Bank has sourced credit risk modeling systems and forecast macroeconomic scenario data from Moody’s Analytics, a third party service provider for the purpose of computing forward-looking credit risk parameters under multiple macroeconomic scenarios that consider both market-wide and idiosyncratic factors and influences. These systems are used in conjunction with the Bank’s internally developed ECL models. Given that the Bank has experienced very limited historical losses and, therefore, does not have available statistically significant loss data inventory for use in developing internal, forward looking expected credit loss trends, the use of unbiased, third party forward-looking credit risk parameter modeling systems is particularly important for the Bank in the context of the estimation of expected credit losses.
The Bank utilizes macroeconomic indicator data derived from multiple macroeconomic scenarios in order to mitigate volatility in the estimation of expected credit losses, as well as to satisfy the IFRS 9 requirement that future economic conditions are to be based on an unbiased, probability-weighted assessment of possible future outcomes. More specifically, the macroeconomic indicators set out in the macroeconomic scenarios are used as inputs for the credit risk parameter models utilized by the Bank to sensitize the individual PD and LGD term structure forecasts to the respective macroeconomic trajectory set out in each of the scenarios (see Expected Credit Loss Sensitivity below). Currently the Bank utilizes upside, downside and baseline forecast macroeconomic scenarios, and assigns discrete weights to each for use in the estimation of its reported ECL. The Bank has also applied expert credit judgement, where appropriate, to reflect, amongst other items, uncertainty in the Canadian macroeconomic environment.
The macroeconomic indicator data utilized by the Bank for the purpose of sensitizing PD and LGD term structure data to forward economic conditions include, but are not limited to: real GDP, the national unemployment rate, long term interest rates, the consumer price index, the S&P/TSX Index and the price of oil. These specific macroeconomic indicators were selected in an attempt to ensure that the spectrum of fundamental macroeconomic influences on the key drivers of the credit risk profile of the Bank’s balance sheet, including: corporate, consumer and real estate market dynamics; corporate, consumer and SME borrower performance; geography; as well as collateral value volatility, are appropriately captured and incorporated into the Bank’s forward macroeconomic sensitivity analysis.

Key assumptions driving the macroeconomic forecast trends this quarter include: the intensity of the -crisis in Ukraine and the scope of the impact of same on commodity markets and supply chains, the magnitude of the Bank of Canada’s (“BoC”) anticipated, continued rate increases, the effectiveness of monetary policy in containing and subsequently moderating inflation, the resiliency of consumer spending and the strength of household balance sheets in a rising rate environment, the dynamics and trajectory of the labour market and the potentiality of the emergence of new variants of COVID-19 as well as the public health response to same.
Management developed ECL estimates using credit risk parameter term structure forecasts sensitized to individual baseline, upside and downside forecast macroeconomic scenarios, each weighted at 100%, and subsequently computed the variance of each to the Bank’s reported ECL as at April 30, 2022 in order to assess the alignment of the Bank’s reported ECL with the Bank’s credit risk profile, and further, to assess the scope, depth and ultimate effectiveness of the credit risk mitigation strategies that the Bank has applied to its lending portfolios (see Expected Credit Loss Sensitivity below).

The Bank’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base in order to retain investor, creditor and market confidence as well as to support the future growth and development of the business. The impact of the level of capital held on shareholders’ return is an important consideration and the Bank recognizes the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that may be possible with greater leverage and the advantages and security that may be afforded by a more robust capital position.
OSFI sets and monitors capital requirements for the Bank. Capital is managed in accordance with policies and plans that are regularly reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors and that take into account, amongst other items, forecasted capital requirements and current and anticipated financial market conditions.
Our objectives with respect to regulatory capital are to maintain adequate capital levels for the Bank to be considered well capitalized, protect consumer deposits and provide capacity to support organic growth as well as to capitalize on strategic opportunities that do not otherwise require accessing the public capital markets, all the while providing a satisfactory return to shareholders. The Bank’s regulatory capital is comprised of share capital, retained earnings and unrealized gains and losses on fair value through other comprehensive income securities (Common Equity Tier 1 capital), preferred shares (Additional Tier 1 capital) and subordinated notes (Tier 2 capital).
The Bank monitors its capital adequacy and related capital ratios on a daily basis and has policies setting internal targets and thresholds for its capital ratios. These capital ratios consist of the leverage ratio and the risk-based capital ratios.
The Bank makes use of the Standardized Approach for credit risk as prescribed by OSFI, and therefore, may include eligible ECL allowance amounts in its Tier 2 capital, up to a maximum of 1.25% of its credit risk-weighted assets calculated under the Standardized Approach. Further to this, and as a result of the onset of COVID-19 and the economic uncertainty precipitated by same, OSFI introduced guidance over the course of the second quarter of fiscal 2020 that set out transitional arrangements pertaining to the capital treatment of expected credit loss provisioning which allows for a portion of eligible ECL allowance amounts to be included in CET1 capital, on a transitional basis, over the course of the period ranging between 2020 and 2022 inclusive. The portion of the Bank’s ECL allowance that is eligible for inclusion in CET1 capital is calculated as the increase in the sum of Stage 1 and Stage 2 ECL allowance amounts estimated in the current period relative to the sum of Stage 1 and Stage 2 ECL allowance amounts estimated for the baseline period, which has been designated by OSFI to be the three months ended January 31, 2020, adjusted for tax effects and multiplied by a scaling factor. The scaling factor was set by OSFI at 70% for fiscal 2020, 50% for fiscal 2021 and 25% for fiscal 2022. The impact of the capital treatment of expected credit loss provisioning on the Bank’s capital levels and associated capital ratios is presented in the table below.
During the period ended April 30, 2022, there were no material changes in the Bank’s management of capital.

b) | Risk-Based Capital Ratios: |
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has published the Basel III rules on capital adequacy and liquidity (“Basel III”). OSFI requires that all Canadian banks must comply with the Basel III standards on an “all-in” basis for the purpose of determining their risk-based capital ratios. Required minimum regulatory capital ratios are a 7.0% Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio (“CET1”), an 8.5% Tier 1 capital ratio and a 10.5% total capital ratio, all of which include a 2.50% capital conservation buffer.
OSFI also requires banks to measure capital adequacy in accordance with guidelines for determining risk adjusted capital and risk-weighted assets including off-balance sheet credit instruments as specified in the Basel III regulations. Based on the deemed credit risk for each type of asset, both on and off balance sheet assets of the Bank are assigned a weighting ranging between 0% to 150% to determine the Bank’s risk weighted equivalent assets and its risk-based capital ratios.
The Bank’s risk-based capital ratios are calculated as follows:
(thousands of Canadian dollars) | | | | | | | | |
| | April 30 | | | October 31 | |
| | 2022 | | | 2021 | |

As at April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, the Bank exceeded all of the minimum Basel III regulatory capital requirements prescribed by OSFI.
The leverage ratio, which is prescribed under the Basel III Accord, is a supplementary measure to the risk-based capital requirements and is defined as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to the Bank’s total exposures. The Basel III minimum leverage ratio is 3.0%. The Bank’s leverage ratio is calculated as follows:
(thousands of Canadian dollars) | | | | | | | | |

14. | Interest rate risk position: |
The Bank is subject to interest rate risk which is the risk that a movement in interest rates could negatively impact net interest margin, net interest income and the economic value of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity. The following table provides the duration difference between the Bank’s assets and liabilities and the potential after-tax impact of a 100 basis point shift in interest rates on the Bank’s earnings during a 12 month period as well as the potential after-tax impact of a 100 basis point shift in interest rates on the Bank’s shareholders’ equity over a 60 month period if no remedial actions are taken.

15. | Fair Value of Financial Instruments: |
Fair values are based on management’s best estimates of market conditions and valuation policies at a certain point in time. The estimates are subjective and involve particular assumptions and matters of judgement and as such, may not be reflective of future fair values. The Bank’s loans and deposits lack an available market as they are not typically exchanged and, therefore, the book value of these instruments are not necessarily representative of amounts realizable upon immediate settlement. See note 19 of the October 31, 2021 audited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on fair values.

16. | Operating Segmentation: |
The Bank has established two reportable operating segments, those being Digital Banking and DRTC (cybersecurity services). The two operating segments are strategic business operations providing distinct products and services to different markets and are separately managed as a function of the distinction in the nature of the business of the two operating segments. The following summarizes the operations of each of the reportable segments:
Digital Banking – The Bank employs a business-to-business model using its proprietary financial technology to address underserved segments of the Canadian banking market. VersaBank obtains its deposits and provides the majority of its loans and leases electronically, with innovative deposit and lending solutions for financial intermediaries that allow them to excel in their core businesses.
DRTC (cybersecurity services) - Leveraging its internally developed IT security software and capabilities, VersaBank established a wholly-owned subsidiary, DRT Cyber Inc. (“DRTC”), to pursue significant large-market opportunities in cybersecurity and develop innovative solutions to address the rapidly growing volume of cyber threats challenging financial institutions, multi-national corporations and government entities.
The basis for the determination of the reportable segments is a function primarily of the systematic, consistent process employed by our chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, and the Chief Financial Officer in reviewing and interpreting the operations and performance of each segment. The accounting policies applied to these segments are consistent with those employed in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, as disclosed in Note 3 of the Bank’s 2021 audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Performance is measured based on segment net income, as included in the Bank’s internal management reporting. Management has determined that this measure is the most relevant in evaluating segment results and in the allocation of resources.
