Morgan Stanley Reports Third Quarter 2010:
● | Net Revenues of $6.8 Billion, Including Negative Impact of $731 Million from Tightening of Morgan Stanley’s Debt-Related Credit Spreads |
● | Income from Continuing Operations of $0.05 per Diluted Share (Includes $0.30 Loss from Changes in Morgan Stanley’s Debt-Related Credit Spreads and $0.12 Gain from a Discrete Tax Item) |
● | Book Value per Common Share Increased 5% During the Quarter to $31.25 |
NEW YORK, October 20, 2010 – Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) today reported income of $313 million, or $0.05 per diluted share,1 from continuing operations applicable to Morgan Stanley for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared with income of $936 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Net revenues were $6.8 billion for the current quarter compared with $8.5 billion a year ago. Net revenues in the current quarter included negative revenue of $731 million related to Morgan Stanley’s debt-related credit spreads (DVA)2, 3 compared with negative revenue from DVA of $878 million in the prior year’s third quarter. The results for the quarter also included $176 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, associated with the repatriation of non-U.S. earnings at a cost lower than originally estimated.
For the quarter, the net loss applicable to Morgan Stanley, including discontinued operations, was $0.07 per diluted share, compared with net income of $0.38 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2009, reflecting a loss of $229 million due to a write-down and related costs associated with the planned disposition of Revel Entertainment Group, LLC.4
Compensation expenses of $3.7 billion decreased from $4.9 billion a year ago. The decline primarily reflected lower compensation costs in Institutional Securities. The Firm’s compensation to net revenue ratio for the current quarter was 54% compared with 58% a year ago. These ratios were higher as a result of negative DVA, which reduced net revenues in both periods. Non-compensation expenses of $2.3 billion increased from $2.1 billion a year ago, primarily due to ongoing investments in technology.
Separately, the Firm announced today a restructuring of its ownership of FrontPoint Partners LLC (FrontPoint) whereby FrontPoint senior management and portfolio managers will own a majority equity stake in FrontPoint and Morgan Stanley will retain a minority stake. FrontPoint will replace Morgan Stanley affiliates as the investment advisor and general partner of the FrontPoint funds. The restructuring is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2010.

James P. Gorman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Although we continued to make progress across some key businesses this quarter, our results in aggregate clearly do not reflect the true potential of Morgan Stanley's global client franchise and I am not satisfied with our overall performance. Our Sales and Trading business was clearly muted; however, we delivered broad-based strength in Investment Banking and improved performance - and positive flows - in both Wealth Management and Asset Management. We continue to invest in our people and our platform, and we are executing our client-focused strategy, including the plans we announced today regarding our FrontPoint business. While we still have considerable work to do across the Firm, Morgan Stanley's client franchise remains well positioned to benefit as the environment stabilizes and investors return to the market."

8 Pre-tax margin and Tier 1 common ratios are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers to be useful measures that the Firm and investors use to assess operating performance and capital adequacy, respectively. Pre-tax margin represents income or loss from continuing operations before taxes, divided by net revenues. The Tier 1 common ratio equals Tier 1 capital (see note 11) less qualifying perpetual preferred stock, qualifying trust preferred securities and qualifying restricted core capital elements, adjusted for the portion of goodwill and non-servicing intangible assets associated with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney’s (MSSB) non-controlling interests divided by risk-weighted assets.
9 Morgan Stanley owns 51% of MSSB, which is consolidated. The results related to the 49% interest retained by Citigroup Inc. are reported in net income / (loss) applicable to non-controlling interests on page 8 of Morgan Stanley’s Financial Supplement accompanying this release.
11 The Firm calculates its Tier 1 capital ratio and risk-weighted assets in accordance with the capital adequacy standards for financial holding companies adopted by the Federal Reserve Board. These standards are based upon a framework described in the International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards, July 1988, as amended, also referred to as Basel I. These computations are preliminary estimates as of October 20, 2010 (the date of this release) and could be subject to revision in Morgan Stanley’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.
