The Bank prepares its consolidated financial
statements in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS),
the current generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), and refers to results
prepared in accordance with IFRS as
the “reported” results. The Bank also utilizes
non-GAAP financial
measures such as “adjusted” results
(i.e. reported results excluding “items of note”)
and non-GAAP ratios to assess each of
its businesses and measure overall
Bank performance. The Bank believes that non-GAAP
financial measures and non-GAAP ratios
provide the reader with a better understanding
of how
management views the Bank’s performance. Non-GAAP
financial measures and ratios used in
this presentation are not defined terms under
IFRS and, therefore,
may not be comparable to similar terms
used by other issuers. See “Financial Results
Overview”
in the Bank’s 2024 MD&A (available at www.td.com/investor
and
www.sedar+.com), which is incorporated by reference, for
further explanation, reported basis results,
a list of the items of note, and a reconciliation
of adjusted to
reported results.
