(1) | From time to time, Morgan Stanley may disclose certain “non-GAAP financial measures” in the course of its earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and otherwise. For these purposes, |
| “GAAP” refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) defines a “non-GAAP financial measure” as a numerical measure of historical or future |
| financial performance, financial positions, or cash flows that is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude, or include amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. |
| Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by Morgan Stanley are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing, our |
| financial condition and operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. |
| Whenever we refer to a non-GAAP financial measure, we will also generally present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, along with a reconciliation of |
| the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference and such comparable GAAP financial measure. |
(2) | Income (loss) applicable to Morgan Stanley represents income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted for the portion of net income (loss) applicable to noncontrolling interests related to continuing operations. For the |
| quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2013, net income (loss) applicable to noncontrolling interests included $3 million and $29 million, respectively, reported as a gain in discontinued operations. |
(3) | The return on average common equity and the return on average common equity from continuing operations equal income applicable to Morgan Stanley in each case, less preferred dividends as a percentage of average |
| common equity. The return on average common equity and the return on average common equity from continuing operations excluding DVA are adjusted for DVA in each case in the numerator and denominator. For the full year ended |
| December 31, 2013, the Firm included a negative adjustment of approximately $151 million (net of tax) to reflect the difference between the purchase price of the 35% redeemable noncontrolling interest in the Morgan |
| Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture and its carrying value. |
(4) | Tier 1 common capital ratio equals Tier 1 common equity divided by risk-weighted assets (RWAs). |
(5) | Tier 1 capital ratio equals Tier 1 capital divided by RWAs. |
(6) | Book value per common share equals common equity divided by period end common shares outstanding. |
(7) | Tangible book value per common share equals tangible common equity divided by period end common shares outstanding. |

(1) | For the year ended December 31, 2013, the income tax provision / (benefit) from continuing operations included discrete tax benefits of $407 million consisting of $161 million related to the remeasurement of reserves and |
| related interest based on new information regarding the status of certain tax authority examinations, $92 million related to the establishment of a deferred tax asset associated with the reorganization of certain non-US legal |
| entities, $73 million attributable to tax planning strategies to optimize foreign tax credit utilization in anticipation of the repatriation of earnings from certain non-U.S. subsidiaries and $81 million resulting from a retroactive |
| change in U.S. tax law. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the income tax provision / (benefit) from continuing operations included a net tax benefit of $142 million consisting of a discrete benefit of approximately |
| $299 million related to the remeasurement of reserves and $157 million of an out-of-period tax provision which includes approximately $75 million to adjust previously recorded deferred tax assets and approximately |
| $82 million primarily related to the overstatement of tax benefits associated with repatriated earnings of a foreign subsidiary in 2010. |
(2) | In the quarter ended December 31, 2012, discontinued operations included the provision of $115 million related to a settlement with the Federal Reserve Board concerning the independent foreclosure review related to |
| Saxon (reported in the Institutional Securities business segment). For the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, discontinued operations reflected a pre-tax gain of $108 million and other operating income related to |
| Quilter Holdings Ltd. (reported in the Wealth Management business segment), and an after-tax loss and operating results related to Saxon (reported in the Institutional Securities business segment), which includes the provision |
| related to a settlement with the Federal Reserve Board concerning Saxon. |
(3) | In the full year ended December 31, 2013, the Firm completed the purchase of the remaining 35% interest in the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture from Citigroup Inc. (Citi), increasing the Firm's interest from |
| 65% to 100%. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, Morgan Stanley completed the purchase of an additional 14% stake in the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture from Citi, increasing the Firm’s interest from |
| 51% to 65%. Prior to September 17, 2012, Citi’s results related to its 49% interest were reported in net income (loss) applicable to nonredeemable noncontrolling interests. Due to the terms of the revised agreement with Citi, |
| subsequent to the purchase of the additional 14% stake, Citi’s results related to the 35% interest are reported in net income (loss) applicable to redeemable noncontrolling interests. |
(4) | Pre-tax profit margin percentages represent income from continuing operations before income taxes as a percentage of net revenues. |

| statements included in the Firm's 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. |
(2) | The Firm calculates its Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital ratios and risk-weighted assets (“RWAs”) 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. On January 1, 2013, |
| the U.S. banking regulators’ rules to implement the Basel Committee’s market risk capital framework, commonly referred to as “Basel 2.5”, became effective, which increases capital requirements for securitizations and |
| correlation trading within the Firm's trading book, as well as incorporating add-ons for stressed VaR and incremental risk requirement. The Firm's Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital ratios and RWAs for the quarters ended |
| December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 were calculated under this revised framework. The Firm's Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital ratios and RWAs for prior quarters have not been recalculated under this revised framework. |
| Further discussion of Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 common capital and RWAs is disclosed in Part I, Item 2 "Regulatory Requirements" included in the Firm's September 30, 2013 Form 10-Q. These computations are preliminary |
| estimates as of January 17, 2014 (the date of this release) and could be subject to revision in Morgan Stanley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. |
(3) | The global liquidity reserve, which is held within the bank and non-bank operating subsidiaries, is comprised of highly liquid and diversified cash and cash equivalents and unencumbered securities. Eligible unencumbered |
| securities include U.S. government securities, U.S. agency securities, U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, FDIC-guaranteed corporate debt and non-U.S. government securities. |
(4) | The Firm's interest in the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture for the quarters ended December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 was 100% and for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was 65%. Goodwill and |
| intangible balances included only the Firm's share of the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture's goodwill and intangible assets, net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction for quarters ended December 31, 2013, |
| September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 of $7 million, $7 million and $6 million, respectively. |
(5) | Tangible common equity equals common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction and includes only the Firm’s share of the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture’s |
| goodwill and intangible assets. The Firm's interest in the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture for the quarters ended December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 was 100% and for the quarter ended |
| December 31, 2012 was 65%. |
(6) | Tier 1 leverage ratio equals Tier 1 capital divided by adjusted average total assets (which reflects adjustments for disallowed goodwill, certain intangible assets, deferred tax assets and financial and non-financial equity |
| investments). |
