\n \u2013 Bank Applauds Prime Minister Mark Carney<\/span> and Finance Minister Fran\u00e7ois-Philippe Champagne<\/span> on Multi-Residential Housing Initiatives in Federal Budget, Further Supporting Bank’s Enhanced CMHC Program \u2013<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

\n Attention: Business Editors<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

\n LONDON, ON<\/span>
\n <\/span>, Nov. 20, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ – VersaBank (“VersaBank” or the “Bank”) (TSX:VBNK; NASDAQ:VBNK), a North American leader in business-to-business digital banking, as well as technology solutions for cybersecurity, today announced it has enhanced its Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (“CMHC”) insured lending program such that the Bank will begin utilizing its Canadian Mortgage Bond (“CMB”) Program allocation capacity to invest in CMHC-insured multi-unit residential (“MUR”) term mortgages originated by partners who are well-established leaders in the Canadian MUR mortgage industry (the “Mortgage Originator”) (the “Enhanced CMHC Program”).\u00a0 The Enhanced CMHC Program, which requires minimal regulatory capital, is expected to contribute a minimum of $2 million<\/span> of incremental revenue to the Bank in fiscal 2026 with de minimis additional operating costs.<\/p>\n

“This new income stream within our already very successful CMHC Lending Program is another example of VersaBank leveraging our proprietary banking technology and specific expertise to capitalize on unique opportunities in the banking industry and use our operating leverage to drive earnings growth and value for our shareholders, while further mitigating risk,” said David Taylor<\/span>, Founder and President, VersaBank.\u00a0 “The incremental profitability generated by our Enhanced CMHC Program in fiscal 2026 will complement the anticipated \u00a0continued growth from the strong momentum in the ramp up of our unique and attractive Receivable Purchase Program financing solution in the United States<\/span>, as well as continued steady growth in Canada<\/span>.”<\/p>\n

VersaBank will earn a fixed fee on the securitization and sale into the CMB Program of the Enhanced CMHC Program mortgages, which reside on the balance sheet of the Canada Housing Trust, which issues CMBs.\u00a0 The Enhanced CMHC Program does not affect the Bank’s existing CMHC-insured MUR construction mortgages that currently reside on its balance sheet or the more than $920 million<\/span> in commitments for such. \u00a0It does, however, create the opportunity for VersaBank to transfer these existing and potential future mortgages to the Enhanced CMHC Program for which VersaBank would earn incremental fees over and above the current yield on those mortgages.<\/p>\n

\n 2025 Canadian Federal Budget Further Supports Bank’s Enhanced CMHC Program<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

VersaBank today also applauded Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney<\/span> and Finance Minister Fran\u00e7ois-Philippe Champagne<\/span> on the multi-residential housing initiatives outlined in the 2025 Federal Budget, which was passed on November 17<\/span>, 2025.\u00a0 Specifically, the 2025 Federal Budget provides for an increase in the CMB annual issuance limit to $80 billion<\/span> from $60 billion<\/span>, starting in 2026, to support the construction and financing of more multi-unit rental housing, which are critical to increasing the housing supply and providing affordable housing to Canadians.\u00a0 The higher CMB issuance limit is expected to provide VersaBank with additional potential opportunity for its Enhanced CMHC Program.<\/p>\n

“The federal government’s plan to expand access to cost-effective mortgage funding for lenders to support the construction of new multi-unit housing across the country is a significant and much needed initiative for our country, said David Taylor<\/span>, Founder and President, VersaBank. “As we have done for decades, VersaBank is proud to play an integral role in the provision of multi-residential housing throughout Canada<\/span>, especially at this time of urgent need for our country.”<\/p>\n
