We are extraordinarily proud to mark our 150th anniversary, a major milestone in our history. Victor G. Dodig, President and Chief Executive Officer We have made excellent progress in embedding a client-first culture at our bank, creating a strong cross-border platform and enhancing value for our shareholders. Building a relationship-focused bank For CIBC, 2017 was an important year as we proudly marked our bank’s 150th year of serving clients and strengthening our communities. Against that backdrop, we continued to keep our focus squarely on our clients. We also completed the significant acquisition of The PrivateBank and laid the groundwork for CIBC to continue to thrive and grow into the future. Our financial results reflect the successful execution of our business strategy in each of our strategic business units. CIBC reported record net income of $4.7 billion or $11.24 per share. Adjusted net income was $4.7 billion or $11.11 per share, compared with $4.1 billion or $10.22 per share a year ago. Our adjusted return on common shareholders’ equity was strong at 18.1%. Our adjusted efficiency ratio ended the year just above 57%, as a result of our efforts to drive simplification and greater efficiency, as well as to deliver revenue growth. Our reported and adjusted diluted EPS growth were 5% and 9%, respectively, reflecting solid earnings from our strategic business units. We ended the year with a strong Basel III Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of 10.6%. A client-first approach In banking, relationships matter more than ever. This lens shapes how we think about every interaction we have with our clients and how we manage and invest in our bank. In 2017 we continued to accelerate our transformation by executing on our integrated, bank-wide priorities – focusing on our clients, innovating for the future and simplifying our bank. These priorities have enabled us to invest in our business with the goal of further enhancing our relationships with our clients. ii CIBC 2017 ANNUAL REPORT President and CEO, Victor G. Dodig CIBC 2017 ANNUAL REPORT iii Message from the President and Chief Executive Officer (continued) We have stayed close to our clients to understand what’s important to them and how we can best serve them, regardless of whether that is saving for retirement, running their small business or advising a client on an acquisition. We have also been investing in our bank to ensure we are personally engaging with our clients and providing the advice they need. A good example of this is the transformation of a number of our banking centres. In 2017, we physically transformed more than 100 banking centres across Canada, creating a more modern, open concept that fosters EXECUTIVE TEAM advice-based conversations with our clients.
