Basis of Presentation | Note 1 - Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim financial statements of Franklin Resources, Inc. (Franklin) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Under these rules and regulations, some information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been shortened or omitted. Management believes that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations for the periods shown have been made. All adjustments are normal and recurring. These financial statements should be read together with the Companys audited financial statements included in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September30, 2009 (fiscal year 2009). Certain amounts for the comparative prior fiscal year periods have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation as of and for the period ended December31, 2009, including those required by the retrospective adoption of new accounting guidance relating to noncontrolling interests and the computation of earnings per share (see Note 2 New Accounting Standards). The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February8, 2010, which is the date that this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed with the SEC. |

New Accounting Standards | Note 2 - New Accounting Standards The Company adopted the following accounting standards during the three months ended December31, 2009. There were no significant updates to new accounting standards not yet adopted by the Company as disclosed in its Form 10-K for fiscal year 2009. In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a new standard that permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain alternative investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value on the basis of the investments net asset value per share or its equivalent. The adoption of the standard had no impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements. In December 2007, the FASB issued a new standard that establishes accounting and reporting standards for noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary (previously referred to as minority interests) and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The standard clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity, separate from the parents equity, in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, it modifies the presentation of consolidated net income to include the amount attributable to noncontrolling interests. The standard requires retrospective adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing noncontrolling interests. All other requirements of the standard are applied prospectively. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations, but resulted in changes in financial statement presentation and disclosure for all periods presented. Minority interests have been recharacterized as redeemable noncontrolling interests and classified as temporary equity, if currently redeemable or convertible for cash or other assets at the option of the holder, or otherwise as nonredeemable noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity. Additionally, the presentation of consolidated net income was modified to include the amount attributable to noncontrolling interests. In June 2008, the FASB issued a new standard that specifies that unvested share-based payment awards containing nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. All prior period earnings per share data presented must be adjusted retrospectively. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on basic or diluted earnings per share. |

Earnings per Share | Note 4 - Earnings per Share Effective October1, 2009, the Company retrospectively adopted a new FASB standard that modifies the earnings per share calculation to recognize its nonvested stock awards and nonvested stock unit awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents as if they were a separate class of stock. Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the two-class method. The nonvested stock awards and nonvested stock unit awards are not included as incremental shares in the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Fair Value Measurements | Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements The Company uses a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. The three levels of fair value hierarchy are set forth below. The Companys assessment of the hierarchy level of the assets or liabilities measured at fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Level1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or corroborated by observable market data. Level 2 quoted prices are obtained from independent third-party brokers or dealers, including prices derived from model-based valuation techniques for which the significant assumptions are observable in the market or corroborated by observable market data. Level3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. These inputs require significant management judgment and reflect the Companys estimation of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Level 3 valuations are derived primarily from model-based valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in the market. The Company records substantially all of its investments at fair value or amounts that approximate fair value. Trading securities and securities available-for-sale are financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Securitization of Loans Held for Sale | Note 8 - Securitization of Loans Held for Sale From time to time, the Company enters into automobile loan securitization transactions with securitization trusts structured as qualified special purpose entities (the securitization trusts), which then issue asset-backed securities to private investors. The Company records these transactions as sales. The securitization transactions are comprised of prime, non-prime and sub-prime contracts for retail installment sales that are secured by new and used automobiles purchased from motor vehicle dealers. The Company purchases the sale contracts in the ordinary course of business. When the Company sells automobile loans in a securitization transaction, it retains certain interests. Residual interests, which include interest-only strips receivable and cash on deposit, represent the Companys contractual right to receive excess interest and cash from the pool of securitized loans after the payment of required amounts to holders of the asset-backed securities and certain other costs associated with the securitization. The residual interests are generally fully realizable and subject to limited recourse provisions. Credit enhancements for the securitization trusts require the Company to maintain a certain amount of cash on deposit, which provides protection for the holders of the asset-backed securities against delays in payment and certain losses on the securitized loans. At December31, 2009 and September30, 2009, the amounts of cash on deposit were $44.8 million and $46.9 million. Discounted values of the cash on deposit were recognized as part of the residual interests. The Company may also retain subordinated securities from securitization transactions, which are senior to the residual interests. The retained interests in securitized assets, including the residual interests and the retained subordinated securities, are recognized as banking/finance trading securities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of the retained interests were recognized in earnings. The Company did not enter into any automobile loan securitization transactions during the three months ended December31, 2009 and 2008. The securitization transactions in which the Company entered into through September30, 2008 were similar in all material respects. As a result of a securitization transaction that the Company entered into in June 2008, it retained the subordinated securities in addition to the residual interests. The remaining retained subordinated securities held by the Company at December31, 2009 had a BBB- credit rating from Standard Poor. The Company determines the fair value of the retained interests in securitized assets at the date of securitization and at the end of each period (see Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies in the Companys Form 10-K for fiscal year 2009 for a description of fair value methodologies used). The following table shows the sensitivity of the retained interests to hypothetical adverse changes in the key economic assumptions used to measure fair value: (dollar amounts in thousands) December31, 2009 September30, 2009 Fair va |

It is subject to various financial covenants, including, but not limited to, minimum requirements related to the Companys interest coverage ratio and maintenance of working capital as well as limitations on capitalization ratio, indebtedness, investments and liens. Interest rates on loans under the revolving credit facility are determined at the time of issuance and depend on the type of loan issued.

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies Guarantees The Company is obligated to cover shortfalls for the automobile loan securitization trusts in amounts due to the holders of the asset-backed securities up to certain levels (see Note 8 Securitization of Loans Held for Sale). At December31, 2009, the banking/finance segment had issued financial standby letters of credit totaling $6.3 million which beneficiaries would be able to draw upon in the event of non-performance by its customers, primarily in relation to lease and lien obligations of these banking customers. These standby letters of credit were secured by marketable securities with a fair value of $7.5 million as of December31, 2009. Legal Proceedings As previously reported, between 2003 and 2006, following industry-wide market timing and late trading investigations by U.S. and Canadian regulators, and U.S. state government offices, Franklin and certain related parties were named in civil lawsuits in the U.S. and one of Franklins adviser subsidiaries was named in civil lawsuits in Canada. In the U.S., the lawsuits were filed against Franklin and certain of its adviser and distributor affiliates, individual Franklin officers and directors, a former Franklin employee, and trustees of certain Franklin Templeton Investments mutual funds (the Funds). In 2004, the lawsuits were consolidated for coordinated proceedings with similar lawsuits against numerous other mutual fund complexes in a multi-district litigation titled In re Mutual Funds Investment Litigation, pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, Case No.04-md-15862 (the MDL). Plaintiffs filed consolidated amended complaints in the MDL on September29, 2004. The three consolidated lawsuits involving the Company include a class action (Sharkey IRO/IRA v. Franklin Resources, Inc., et al., Case No.04-cv-01310), a derivative action on behalf of the Funds (McAlvey v. Franklin Resources, Inc., et al., Case No.04-cv-01274), and a derivative action on behalf of Franklin (Hertz v. Burns, et al., Case No.04-cv-01624) and seek, among other forms of relief, one or more of the following: unspecified monetary damages; punitive damages; removal of Fund trustees, directors, advisers, administrators, and distributors; rescission of management contracts and distribution plans under Rule 12b-1 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940; and attorneys fees and costs. On February25, 2005, the Company-related parties filed motions to dismiss the consolidated amended class action and Fund derivative action complaints. On June26, 2008, the court issued its order granting in part and denying in part the Companys motion to dismiss the consolidated amended class action complaint. In its order, the court dismissed certain claims, while allowing others under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and under Sections 36(b) and 48(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to remain, and dismissed all class action claims against the named Funds. Pursuant to stipulation, the court also dismissed all claims against certain individual defendants, including the independent trustees to the named Funds |

Stock-Based Compensation | Note 12 - Stock-Based Compensation The Companys stock-based compensation plans include the Amended and Restated Annual Incentive Plan (the AIP) and the 2002 Universal Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the USIP). Under the terms of the AIP, eligible employees may receive cash, equity awards, and/or cash-settled equity awards generally based on the performance of the Company, its funds and the individual employee. The USIP provides for the issuance of up to 30.0million shares of the Companys common stock for various stock-related awards to officers, directors and employees. At December31, 2009, approximately 3.5million shares were available for grant under the USIP. In addition to stock awards and stock unit awards, the Company may award options and other forms of stock-based compensation to officers, directors and employees under the USIP. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determines the terms and conditions of awards under the AIP and USIP. Stock Options The following table summarizes stock option activity: (in thousands, except weighted-average exercise price) Shares Weighted- Average Exercise Price Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term(in Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value Outstanding at September30, 2009 2,737 $ 37.86 Exercised (225 ) 36.69 Outstanding and Exercisable at December31, 2009 2,512 $ 37.97 2.5 $ 169,284 Stock option awards outstanding under the USIP generally have been granted at prices that are either equal to or above the market value of the underlying shares of the Companys common stock on the date of grant, generally vest over three years and expire no later than ten years after the grant date. No stock option awards have been granted under the USIP since November 2004. All stock options were fully vested and all related compensation cost was recognized prior to fiscal year 2008. Cash received from stock option exercises for the three months ended December31, 2009 and 2008 was $8.3 million and $3.1 million. Income tax benefits from stock option exercises were $8.7 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended December31, 2009 and 2008. Stock Awards and Stock Unit Awards The fair value of stock awards and stock unit awards granted under the USIP is estimated on the date of grant based on the market price of the underlying shares of the Companys common stock and is amortized to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the related vesting period, which is generally three to four years. The total number of stock awards and stock unit awards expected to vest is adjusted for estimated forfeitures. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock awards and stock unit awards, net of estimated forfeitures, was $127.2 million at December31, 2009. This cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of 1.9 years.

Banking Regulatory Ratios | Note 16 - Banking Regulatory Ratios Franklin is a bank holding company and a financial holding company subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies, including the Federal Reserve Board. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional, discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. The Company must meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain a minimum Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 leverage ratio (as defined in the regulations), as well as minimum Tier 1 and Total risk-based capital ratios (as defined in the regulations). Based on the Companys calculations as of December31, 2009 and September30, 2009, it exceeded the applicable capital adequacy requirements as listed below.
