Earnings Per Share Also Increased
TD's reported diluted earnings per share rose to C$2.74 from C$1.89 in the same quarter last year.
On an adjusted basis, diluted EPS reached C$2.77, compared with C$2.20 a year earlier.
Adjusted earnings per share therefore increased by 26% year over year.
For investors, EPS is an important measure because it shows how much of a company's profit is attributable to each outstanding share.
Canadian Banking Business Sets Records
TD's Canadian Personal and Commercial Banking division was one of the major contributors to the quarter.
The business reported net income of C$2.095 billion, an increase of 7% compared with the third quarter of 2025.
Revenue reached C$5.517 billion, up 5% year over year.
TD said the business benefited from growth in deposits and loans as well as higher margins.
Average loan volumes increased by C$30 billion, or 5%, while average deposit volumes increased by C$12 billion, or 2%.
The bank described the quarter as a record one for its Canadian Personal and Commercial Banking business.
U.S. Banking Also Shows Momentum
TD's U.S. Banking business reported net income of C$1.074 billion for the quarter.
Compared with the previous quarter, reported net income increased by C$261 million, or 32%.
TD attributed the quarterly improvement to additional days in the quarter, higher deposit and loan margins, lower provisions for credit losses and other factors.
The bank said U.S. Banking continued to show growing momentum during the quarter.
Wholesale Banking Profit Surges
TD's Wholesale Banking business delivered one of the largest year-over-year increases.
Reported and adjusted net income reached C$743 million, up 87% from the third quarter of 2025.
Revenue increased 25% to C$2.581 billion.
TD said higher lending revenue, underwriting fees and trading-related revenue contributed to the increase.
The business also recorded lower provisions for credit losses compared with the same quarter last year.
Wealth Management and Insurance Also Grow
TD's Wealth Management and Insurance business reported net income of C$841 million.
That was an increase of 20% compared with the third quarter of 2025.
Within the division, Wealth Management net income increased 25% to C$653 million, while Insurance net income rose 3% to C$188 million.
Revenue for the division reached C$4.085 billion, an 11% increase from a year earlier.
TD said the increase reflected higher fee-based revenue from asset growth and higher insurance earned premiums.
TD Reports Stronger Loan and Deposit Volumes
Across the bank, total loans net of allowance for loan losses reached C$991 billion at the end of the quarter.
Total deposits stood at approximately C$1.261 trillion.
TD's total assets reached about C$2.112 trillion as of July 31, 2026.
The figures show the scale of the bank's operations across Canada and the United States.
TD's Capital Position Remains Strong
TD reported a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 14.3% at the end of the quarter.
The bank's Tier 1 capital ratio was 16.1%, while its total capital ratio stood at 17.9%.
These measures are closely watched by investors because they provide an indication of a bank's capital strength and ability to absorb financial losses.
TD Declares Quarterly Dividend
TD's financial information also shows a third-quarter dividend of C$1.12 per common share.
The dividend was declared on August 27, 2026.
The bank's published dividend schedule lists October 9 as the ex-dividend date and October 31 as the scheduled payment date, subject to the applicable conditions.
For income-focused investors, the dividend remains an important part of TD's shareholder-return story.
What Does TD's Earnings Report Mean for Investors?
The latest results show that TD entered the second half of 2026 with strong earnings momentum.
The biggest gains came from several different parts of the business rather than a single division.
Canadian Personal and Commercial Banking produced record revenue, Wholesale Banking posted a significant increase in profit, and U.S. Banking continued to improve.
TD also highlighted continued investment in artificial intelligence, innovation and front-line employees.
However, strong quarterly earnings do not automatically mean the stock will rise.
Share prices can move based on investor expectations, future earnings guidance, interest rates, economic conditions and broader market sentiment.
What Should Investors Watch Next?
Investors will likely focus on whether TD can maintain the earnings momentum seen in the third quarter.
The Canadian banking environment remains sensitive to interest rates, consumer borrowing, credit losses, and economic growth.
TD's U.S. operations will also remain important because of the bank's significant presence in the American market.
The bank's ability to grow loans and deposits while controlling expenses and credit losses will be important in future quarters.
TwikUp Insight
TD's third-quarter results give investors a straightforward reason to pay attention to Canada's banking sector.
Reported profit rose sharply to C$4.615 billion, while adjusted earnings reached C$4.671 billion.
The strongest areas included Canadian Personal and Commercial Banking and Wholesale Banking, while U.S. Banking also showed stronger quarterly performance.
For ordinary investors, the important takeaway is not simply that TD made more money.
The bigger story is that earnings growth was spread across several major parts of the business, while the bank continued to maintain a strong capital position and pay a C$1.12 quarterly dividend.
The next question for investors will be whether TD can sustain this performance through the remainder of fiscal 2026.
