(a) | The Firm calculates earnings per share using the two-class method as described under the accounting guidance for earnings per share. For further discussion of the Firm's earnings per share calculations, see Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. |
(b) | Book value per common share equals common equity divided by period end common shares outstanding. |
(c) | Preferred stock dividend / Other includes allocation of earnings to Participating Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). |
(d) | Firmwide regional revenues reflect the Firm's consolidated net revenues on a managed basis. Further discussion regarding the geographic methodology for net revenues is disclosed in Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Firm's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (2016 Form 10-K). |
(e) | 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, non-U.S. government securities and other highly liquid investment grade securities. |
(f) | The Firm's goodwill and intangible balances utilized in the calculation of tangible common equity are net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction. |
(g) | The Firm's capital estimation and attribution to the business segments are based on the Required Capital framework, an internal capital adequacy measure. This framework is a risk-based and leverage use-of-capital measure, which is compared with the Firm's regulatory capital to ensure that the Firm maintains an amount of going concern capital after absorbing potential losses from stress events, where applicable, at a point in time. The Firm defines the difference between its total Average Common Equity and the sum of the Average Common Equity amounts allocated to its business segments as Parent equity. The common equity estimation and attribution to the business segments is based on the Firm's fully phased-in regulatory capital requirements. The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of the year, and will remain fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition). The Required Capital framework is expected to evolve over time in response to changes in the business and regulatory environment and to incorporate enhancements in modeling techniques. For further discussion of the framework, refer to Part II, Item 7 "Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and Part I, Item 2 "Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. |

At December 31, 2017, the Firm's ratio is based on the Standardized Approach transitional rules. For information on the calculation of regulatory capital and ratios for prior periods, please refer to Part II, Item 7 "Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm's 2016 Form 10-K and Part I, Item 2 "Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm's 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. |
