Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce Price and EPS Surprise
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s earnings for the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $1.78 per share, which has been unchanged in the past seven days. The estimated figure suggests a rise of 23.6% from the year-ago quarter.
Factors Likely to Have Influenced CM’s Q2 Results
The company’s capital markets division is expected to have gotten major support from elevated market volatility and stronger client activity in the April-end quarter. Also, an increase in underwriting fees, as well as higher advisory fees (on a rise in global deal volumes), is likely to have boosted investment banking revenues.
On the lending side, Canadian commercial banking and retail banking operations benefited from decent lending demand and relatively resilient spreads in the quarter. Thus, loan growth and expansion in earning assets are expected to have provided support to Canadian Imperial’s net interest income.
Despite NII growth, the company’s net interest margin (NIM) expansion is likely to have been constrained because of easing interest rates in Canada.
Since the company has continuously been spending on technology modernization and employee compensation, overall costs are expected to have been elevated in the quarter.
What the Zacks Model Unveils for Canadian Imperial
Per our quantitative model, it cannot be conclusively predicted whether Canadian Imperial will be able to beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings this time. This is because it does not have the right combination of the two key ingredients — positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better.
