**CIBC Receives TSX Approval for Normal Course Issuer Bid**

TORONTO, Sept. 8, 2025 /CNW/ - **CIBC** (TSX: CM) (NYSE: CM) announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) has accepted notice of CIBC's intention to make a normal course issuer bid (NCIB). As previously announced on August 28, 2025, CIBC intends to purchase for cancellation up to 20 million common shares under a new NCIB.

TSX approval permits CIBC to purchase for cancellation from time to time up to 20 million common shares, representing approximately 2.2% of CIBC's 929,594,116 issued and outstanding common shares as of August 31, 2025. The average daily trading volume for the six months ended August 31, 2025 and the maximum amount of common shares that could be purchased each day, calculated pursuant to the rules of the TSX for the purposes of the NCIB, were 3,617,077 and 904,269 common shares, respectively.

CIBC's purchase of common shares under a NCIB is consistent with the bank's priority of maintaining balance sheet strength, while generating shareholder value through a balanced capital deployment strategy.

Purchases under the bid may commence through the TSX on or after September 10, 2025 and may also be made through alternative Canadian trading systems, the NYSE and by other such means as may be permitted by the Ontario Securities Commission or other applicable Canadian Securities Administrators. The bid will be completed upon the earlier of (i) CIBC purchasing 20 million common shares, (ii) CIBC providing a notice of termination, or (iii) September 9, 2026. CIBC Capital Markets has been retained to act as designated broker to repurchase CIBC shares pursuant to the bid. The price paid for the common shares will be the market price at the time of the purchase. The common shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.

CIBC has also entered into an automatic share purchase plan (ASPP) with CIBC Capital Markets. Under the ASPP, CIBC Capital Markets may purchase common shares at times when CIBC ordinarily would not be active in the market due to insider trading rules and its own internal trading blackout periods. Purchases will be made by CIBC Capital Markets based upon parameters set by CIBC prior to the commencement of any such blackout period and in accordance with the terms of the ASPP. The ASPP has been approved by the TSX.

CIBC's previous normal course issuer bid for the purchase of up to 20 million common shares commenced on September 10, 2024 and terminated on July 31, 2025, upon completion of the repurchase and cancellation of the full 20 million common shares at an average price of $87.79 per share for a total amount of $1.8 billion.
