INCORPORATED Supplementary to notes in the 1996 Annual report to stockholders 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The interim financial information in this report has not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations for the interim periods have been made. All adjustments made were of a normal recurring nature. Management consults with its independent accountants on significant accounting and reporting matters that arise during the year. 2. ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS Earnings per Share In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings per Share. SFAS No. 128 supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 and related pronouncements, and replaces the computations of primary and fully diluted earnings per share (EPS) with basic and diluted EPS, respectively. Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the period's weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, which includes contingently issuable shares where all necessary conditions for issuance have been satisfied. Diluted EPS includes the determinants of basic EPS and, in addition, gives effect to dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is not permitted. Basic EPS and diluted EPS, computed using SFAS No. 128, for the three months ended March 31, 1997, were approximately $2.19 and $2.04, respectively. 3. INTEREST REVENUE AND EXPENSE An analysis of interest revenue and expense derived from on-and off-balance-sheet financial instruments is presented in the table below. Interest revenue and expense associated with derivative financial instruments, such as swaps, forwards, spot, futures, options, and debt securities forwards, used as hedges or to modify the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities, is attributed to and included with the related balance sheet instrument. Net interest revenue associated with risk-adjusting swaps that are used to meet longer-term investment objectives, including the maximization of net interest revenue, is not attributed to a specific balance sheet instrument, but is included in the Other sources caption in the table below. First quarter In millions 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------- INTEREST REVENUE Deposits with banks $ 27 $ 27 Debt investment securities (a) 412 394 Trading account assets 1,071 755 Securities purchased under agreements to resell and federal funds sold 455 577 Securities borrowed 383 263 Loans 465 440 Other sources, primarily risk-adjusting swaps 79 98 - -------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest revenue 2,892 2,554 - -------------------------------------------------------------- INTEREST EXPENSE Deposits 663 650 Trading account liabilities 357 293 Securities sold under agreements to repurchase and federal funds purchased 876 787 Other borrowed money 332 289 Long-term debt 195 139 Trust preferred securities 19 - - -------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest expense 2,442 2,158 - -------------------------------------------------------------- Net interest revenue 450 396 - -------------------------------------------------------------- 9 PAGE 9 (a) Interest revenue from debt investment securities included taxable revenue of $385 million and revenue exempt from U.S. income taxes of $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Interest revenue from debt investment securities included taxable revenue of $360 million and revenue exempt from U.S. income taxes of $34 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996. For the three months ended March 31, 1997, net interest revenue associated with derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading was approximately $35 million, compared with approximately $40 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997, approximately $230 million of net deferred losses on closed derivative contracts used for purposes other-than-trading were recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. Such amount is primarily composed of net deferred losses on closed hedge contracts included in the amortized cost of the debt investment portfolio. As discussed in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, Investment securities, the net unrealized appreciation associated with the debt investment portfolio was $243 million at March 31, 1997. The amount of net deferred gains or losses on closed derivative contracts will change from period to period, primarily due to amortization of such amounts to net interest revenue and the execution of our investing strategies, which may result in the sale of the underlying hedged instruments and/or termination of hedge contracts. Net deferred losses on closed derivative contracts at March 31, 1997, are expected to amortize into Net interest revenue as follows: $60 million - - remainder of 1997; $75 million in 1998; $35 million in 1999; $30 million in 2000; $15 million in 2001; $10 million in 2002; and approximately $5 million thereafter. 4. TRADING REVENUE Trading revenue disaggregated by principal product groupings for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, is presented in the following table. For additional information refer to the Trading revenue discussion in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

For additional detail of gross unrealized gains and losses associated with open derivative contracts used to hedge debt investment securities, see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, Off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The following table presents the components of Investment Securities Revenue realized related to the debt investment securities portfolio during the first quarter of 1997 and 1996. First quarter In millions 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------- Gross realized gains from sales $38 $101 Gross realized losses from sales (26) (89) - -------------------------------------------------------------- Net debt investment securities gains 12 12 Equity investment securities Net realized gains on the sale of equity investment securities during the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 of $55 million and $64 million, respectively, are reflected in Investment securities revenue. For the 1997 period, this represents gross realized gains of $65 million and write-downs of $10 million. For the 1996 period, this represents gross realized gains of $73 million and write-downs of $9 million. Gross unrealized gains and losses as well as a comparison of the cost, fair value, and carrying value of marketable equity investment securities available-for-sale at March 31, 1997, follows.

OFF-BALANCE-SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Derivatives Derivatives may be used either for trading or other-than-trading purposes. Other-than-trading purposes are primarily related to our investing activities. Accordingly, the notional amounts presented in the table below have been identified as relating to either trading or other-than-trading purposes based on management's intent and ongoing usage. A summary of the credit exposure, which is represented by the positive market value associated with derivatives, after considering the benefit of approximately $39.8 billion of master netting agreements in effect at March 31, 1997, is also presented.

Morgan's derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading are transacted with independently managed J.P. Morgan derivatives dealers who function as intermediaries for credit and administrative purposes. (b) The notional amounts of derivative contracts used for purposes other-than-trading conducted in the foreign exchange markets, primarily forward contracts, amounted to $37.4 billion at March 31, 1997, and were primarily denominated in the following currencies: deutsche mark $7.2 billion, Japanese yen $5.4 billion, French franc $4.9 billion, Italian lira $3.8 billion, Swiss franc $2.0 billion, British pound $1.9 billion, Belgian franc $1.9 billion, European currency unit $1.4 billion, and Spanish peseta $1.3 billion. (c) The notional amount of risk-adjusting swaps was $189.0 billion at March 31, 1997. (d) At March 31, 1997, purchased options used for trading purposes included $543.4 billion of interest rate options, $140.8 billion of foreign exchange options, and $39.7 billion of commodity and equity options. Only interest rate options are used for purposes other-than-trading. Purchased options executed on an exchange amounted to $192.9 billion and those negotiated over-the-counter amounted to $532.6 billion at March 31, 1997. (e) At March 31, 1997, written options included $676.4 billion of interest rate options, $154.5 billion of foreign exchange options, and $43.9 billion of commodity and equity options. Written option contracts executed on an exchange amounted to $285.3 billion and those negotiated over-the-counter amounted to $589.5 billion at March 31, 1997. Derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading As an end user, J.P. Morgan utilizes derivative instruments in the execution of its investing strategies. Such derivatives primarily include interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate futures, and debt securities forwards. Derivatives are used to hedge or modify the interest rate characteristics of debt investment securities, loans, deposits, other liabilities for borrowed money, long-term debt, and other financial assets and liabilities. In addition, we utilize derivatives to adjust our overall interest rate risk profile through the use of risk-adjusting swaps. Net unrealized gains associated with open derivative contracts used to hedge or modify the interest rate characteristics of related balance sheet instruments amounted to $146 million at March 31, 1997. Gross unrealized gains and gross unrealized losses associated with open derivative contracts used for these purposes at March 31, 1997, are presented below. Such amounts primarily relate to interest rate and currency swaps used to hedge or modify the interest rate characteristics of long-term debt, deposits, and debt investment securities, principally mortgage-backed securities. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, Fair value of financial instruments. Gross Gross unrealized unrealized Net unrealized In millions gains (losses) gains (losses) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-term debt $ 200 $ (159) $ 41 Debt investment securities 176 (51) 125 Deposits 48 (55) (7) Other financial instruments 61 (74) (13) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 485 (339) 146 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net unrealized gains associated with risk-adjusting swaps that are entered into to meet longer-term investment objectives and their related hedges approximated $0.1 billion at March 31, 1997. The net amount is composed of $2.7 billion of gross unrealized gains and $2.6 billion of gross unrealized losses. The unrealized gains and losses related to the derivative contracts used to hedge these risk-adjusting swaps, included above, were not material at March 31, 1997. There were no material terminations of risk-adjusting swaps during the three months ended March 31, 1997. 13 PAGE 13 Credit-related financial instruments Credit-related financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and guarantees, and indemnifications in connection with securities lending activities. The contractual amounts of these instruments represent the amounts at risk should the contract be fully drawn upon, the client default, and the value of any existing collateral become worthless. The total contractual amount of credit-related financial instruments does not represent the expected future liquidity requirements, since a significant amount of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and guarantees are expected to expire or mature without being drawn. The credit risk associated with these instruments varies depending on the creditworthiness of the client and the value of any collateral held. Commitments to extend credit generally require the client to meet certain credit-related terms and conditions before drawdown. Collateral is required in connection with securities lending indemnifications. Market risk for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and guarantees, while not significant, may exist as availability of and access to credit markets changes. A summary of the contractual amount of credit-related financial instruments at March 31, 1997, is presented in the following table. March 31 In billions 1997 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Commitments to extend credit $ 69.5 Standby letters of credit and guarantees 16.6 Securities lending indemnifications (a) 4.5 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (a) At March 31, 1997, J.P. Morgan held cash and other collateral in support of securities lending indemnifications. Included in Fees and Commissions are credit-related fees of $37 million and $38 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, which are primarily earned from commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and guarantees, and securities lending indemnifications. Other Consistent with industry practice, amounts receivable and payable for securities that have not reached the contractual settlement dates are recorded net on the consolidated balance sheet. Amounts receivable for securities sold of $39.0 billion were netted against amounts payable for securities purchased of $39.1 billion to arrive at a net trade date payable of $0.1 billion, which was classified as Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 1997. 8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS In accordance with SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, J.P. Morgan estimates that the aggregate net fair value of all balance sheet and off-balance-sheet financial instruments exceeded associated net carrying values. At March 31, 1997, such excess was essentially unchanged from December 31, 1996. 14 PAGE 14 9. IMPAIRED LOANS AND OTHER NONPERFORMING ASSETS Total impaired loans and other nonperforming assets, net of charge-offs, at March 31, 1997, are presented in the following table. At March 31, 1997, approximately 50% of the impaired loan balance is measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at an individual loan's effective interest rate, approximately 40% is based on the fair value of the collateral, and the remainder is measured by an observable market price. March 31 In millions 1997 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Impaired loans: Commercial and industrial $ 55 Other 34 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 89 Restructuring countries 2 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total impaired loans 91 (a) - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other nonperforming assets 19 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total nonperforming assets 110 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (a) As of March 31, 1997, no reserve is required under SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, for the $91 million recorded investment in impaired loans. Charge-offs and interest applied to principal have reduced the recorded investment values to amounts that are less than the SFAS No. 114 calculated values. For the three months ended March 31, 1997, the average recorded investment in impaired loans was $113 million. An analysis of the effect of impaired loans, net of charge-offs, on interest revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, is presented in the following table. First quarter In millions 1997 1996 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest revenue that would have been recorded if accruing $ 2 $ 4 Less interest revenue recorded 1 1 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Negative) impact of impaired loans on interest revenue (1) (3) 10. AGGREGATE ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES An analysis of the aggregate allowance for credit losses at March 31, 1997, is presented in the following table. First quarter In millions 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------- Beginning of period balance $1,116 - ------------------------------------------------------------------- Recoveries 10 Charge-offs: Commercial and industrial (13) Other -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------- Net charge-offs (3) - ------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance, March 31, 1997 (a)(b)(c) 1,113 - ------------------------------------------------------------------- (a) In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, and SFAS No. 114, as amended by SFAS No. 118, an aggregate allowance is maintained that is considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in the existing portfolios of loans and other undertakings to extend credit, such as irrevocable unused loan commitments, or to make payments to others for which a client is ultimately liable, such as standby letters of credit and guarantees, commercial letters of credit and acceptances, and all other credit exposures, including derivatives. A judgment as to the adequacy of the aggregate allowance is made at the end of each quarterly reporting period. (b) At March 31, 1997, the allocation of the aggregate allowance for credit losses was as follows: Specific allocation - borrowers in the U.S. $163 million, Specific allocation - borrowers outside the U.S. $56 million, Allocation to general risk $894 million. (c) At March 31, 1997, the aggregate allowance was apportioned and displayed as follows: $563 million as a reduction of loans, $350 million as reduction of trading account assets related to derivatives, and $200 million included in other liabilities related to undertakings to extend credit that are not currently reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. 15 PAGE 15 11. INVESTMENT BANKING AND OTHER REVENUE In the first quarter of 1997 and 1996, investment banking revenue of $226 million and $201 million includes $97 million and $65 million, respectively, of underwriting revenue. Other revenue in the 1997 first quarter includes $64 million ($59 million in Corporate Items) of gains on hedges of anticipated foreign currency revenues and expenses. These gains were partially offset by the impact of exchange rate movements on reported revenues and expenses in the quarter. 12. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense in the 1997 first quarter reflects a 34% effective tax rate, compared to a 33% effective tax rate in the 1996 first quarter. Income tax expense related to net realized gains on debt and equity investment securities was approximately $25 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Income tax expense related to net realized gains on debt and equity investment securities was approximately $29 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The applicable tax rate used to compute the income tax expense related to net gains on debt and equity investment securities was approximately 37% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. The valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized totaled approximately $120 million at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996. The valuation allowance is primarily related to the ability to recognize tax benefits associated with foreign operations. 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Excluding mortgaged properties, assets carried at approximately $70.1 billion in the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 1997, were pledged as collateral for borrowings, to qualify for fiduciary powers, to secure public monies as required by law, and for other purposes. 16 PAGE 16 14. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE In the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per common share, net income is adjusted by adding back to net income the interest expense on convertible debentures and the expense related to dividend equivalents on certain deferred incentive compensation awards, net of the related income tax effects, and subtracting from net income the preferred stock dividends to arrive at net income applicable to common stock. Primary and fully diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. For primary and fully diluted earnings per share, the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding was the sum of the average number of shares of common stock outstanding, the average number of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debentures, and the average number of shares issuable under employee benefit plans that have a dilutive effect, as computed under the treasury stock method. Under this method, the number of incremental shares is determined by assuming the issuance of the outstanding stock options and certain deferred incentive compensation awards, reduced by the number of shares assumed to be repurchased from the issuance proceeds, using the market price of the company's common stock. For primary earnings per share, this market price is the average market price for the period, while for fully diluted earnings per share, it is the period-end market price, if it is higher than the average price.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated reported net income of $424 million in the first quarter of 1997, compared with $439 million in the first quarter of 1996. Earnings per share for the quarter were $2.04 compared with $2.13 a year ago. FIRST QUARTER 1997 RESULTS AT A GLANCE In millions of dollars, Fourth except per share data First quarter quarter 1997 1996 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenues $ 1,833 $ 1,740 $ 1,805 Operating expenses (1,191) (1,085) (1,197) Income taxes (218) (216) (189) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net income 424 439 419 Net income per share $2.04 $2.13 $2.04 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dividends declared per share $0.88 $0.81 $0.88 REVENUES rose 5% in the first quarter from a year ago. - Finance and Advisory revenues increased 8% to $451 million, mainly as a result of higher debt and equity underwriting revenues. - Market Making revenues totaled $733 million, a decline of $38 million. Revenues in emerging markets, equities, and foreign exchange were up strongly; fixed income revenues in developed markets were down from the high levels of 1996. - Asset Management and Servicing revenues increased 9% to $375 million, primarily reflecting gains in investment management and private client activities. - Proprietary Investing and Trading revenues, well diversified, rose 28% to $276 million. - Equity Investments revenues declined to $49 million from $66 million. OPERATING EXPENSES rose 10% in the 1997 first quarter from a year ago. 18 PAGE 18 BUSINESS SECTOR ANALYSIS We describe the activities of J.P. Morgan using five business sectors. Three of these sectors - Finance and Advisory, Market Making, and Asset Management and Servicing - focus on services we provide for clients. Two sectors comprise proprietary activities that we conduct exclusively for our own account: Equity Investments and Proprietary Investing and Trading. For a complete description of our business sectors, refer to the J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated 1996 Annual Report. Presented below are the summary results for each sector for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. Asset Manage Total Propriet- Total Finance -ment Client- Equity ary Propriet- and Market and Focused Invest- Investing ary Corporate Consol- In millions Advisory Making Servicing Activities ments and Trading Activities Items idated - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First quarter 1997 Total revenues $ 451 $ 733 $ 375 $1,559 $ 49 $ 276 $ 325 $ (51) $1,833 Total expenses 302 474 300 1,076 7 46 53 62 1,191 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretax income 149 259 75 483 42 230 272 (113) 642 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First quarter 1996 Total revenues 416 771 345 1,532 66 215 281 (73) 1,740 Total expenses 259 410 271 940 8 36 44 101 1,085 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretax income 157 361 74 592 58 179 237 (174) 655 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Methodology The firm's management reporting system and policies were used to determine the revenues and expenses directly attributable to each business sector. Earnings on stockholders' equity were allocated based on management's assessment of the inherent risk of the components of each sector. In addition, certain overhead expenses not allocated for management reporting purposes were allocated to each business sector. Overhead expenses were allocated based primarily on staff levels and represent costs associated with various support functions that exist for the benefit of the firm as a whole. Effective January 1, 1997, as compensation for managing the firm's credit risk, Global Credit receives fees from other Morgan businesses. Such fees are included as revenues in the Finance and Advisory sector and as a reduction in revenues reported by businesses on whose behalf such credit risk is managed. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. FINANCE AND ADVISORY The Finance and Advisory sector includes results of our Advisory, Debt and Equity Underwriting, and Global Credit activities. Total revenues increased 8% to $451 million. Revenues from Debt and Equity underwriting in both developed and emerging markets were up sharply, growing 61%, as issuers took advantage of favorable market conditions. Advisory revenues declined 26% from the first quarter of 1996, when fees from several large transactions were recorded. Revenues from Global Credit activities rose 9% to $230 million, primarily attributable to higher loan syndication revenues. For the first quarter of 1997, Securities Data Co. ranked J.P. Morgan fourth in U.S. debt and equity underwriting, up from eighth a year ago. Morgan ranked fifth in completed mergers and acquisitions transactions worldwide, compared with fourth in the first quarter of 1996. As an arranger of syndicated loans, J.P. Morgan ranked third globally, according to Loan Pricing Corporation, for the first quarter of 1997, unchanged from a year earlier. Expenses in the first quarter of 1997 increased 17% to $302 million compared with $259 million in the first quarter of 1996. The Finance and Advisory sector includes all of the costs associated with our global network of senior client relationship managers who market the full spectrum of our capabilities and provide the link between our clients' needs and J.P. Morgan's financial, advisory, asset management, market-making, and risk management products and services. The Finance and Advisory sector recorded pretax income of $149 million in the first quarter of 1997 compared with $157 million a year ago. 19 PAGE 19 MARKET MAKING The Market Making sector includes results of our Fixed Income, Equities, Foreign Exchange, and Commodities activities. Total revenues were $733 million, down from $771 million. While most markets showed strength early in the quarter, activity slowed in mid-March as a result of the directional shift in U.S. monetary policy. Fixed income revenues of $264 million in developed markets declined from the very strong first-quarter 1996 level of $456 million. Revenues in the first quarter of last year benefited from gains on positions arising from client-related swap transactions. Overall, the volume of client transactions grew, but the number of higher-yielding, customized transactions declined. In emerging markets, revenues rose nearly 50% to $186 million, as a result of short-term positioning gains and greater client demand. Market Making revenues from equities were up 63% to $152 million, as a result of strong demand in both the cash and derivative markets. Equity derivative revenues grew 64%, and equity commissions were up 47%, reflecting higher volumes and growing market share, primarily on U.S. and European exchanges. Foreign exchange revenues rose 78%, with strong client demand in active markets. Commodities revenues were $12 million, down from $31 million a year ago. Total expenses of $474 million increased 16% from the first quarter of 1996. The Market Making sector recorded pretax income of $259 million in the first quarter of 1997, compared with $361 million in the first quarter of 1996. ASSET MANAGEMENT AND SERVICING The Asset Management and Servicing sector includes results of our Investment Management, Private Client Services, Futures and Options Brokerage, and Euroclear System activities. Total revenues rose 9% to $375 million in the first quarter. Revenues generated from institutional investment management activities and services for private clients increased 13% to $243 million. Assets under management grew 15% from a year ago to $214 billion at March 31, 1997, due to net new business and, to a lesser extent, market appreciation. While most of the revenues from our private client businesses are reported in this sector, approximately $40 million are included in our Finance and Advisory and Market Making sectors, reflecting transactions undertaken for private clients in other business areas. Private clients accounted for approximately $133 million of our revenues from all client-focused activities in the first quarter of 1997, up approximately 20% from the first quarter of 1996. Expenses associated with the Asset Management and Servicing sector were up 11%, to $300 million in the first quarter of 1997, compared with $271 million in the first quarter of 1996. The Asset Management and Servicing sector recorded pretax income of $75 million in the first quarter of 1997 compared with $74 million in the year-earlier period. EQUITY INVESTMENTS The Equity Investments sector includes results from our proprietary equity investment portfolio management activities. Total reported revenues were $49 million in the first quarter, compared with $66 million a year ago. Included in reported revenues are net gains on equity investments of $33 million in 1997, compared with $64 million in the 1996 first quarter, when gains were recognized from the sale of a large investment. Equity Investments recorded pretax income of $42 million in the first quarter of 1997 compared with $58 million in the first quarter of 1996. On a total return basis, combining reported revenues with the change in net unrealized appreciation, there was a loss of $25 million in the 1997 first quarter, reflecting a decline in the market value of the firm's investment portfolio, primarily related to insurance industry investments. This compares with a gain of $54 million a year ago. As our investment strategy covers a longer-term horizon, total return viewed over short periods will reflect the impact of short-term market movements, including industry specific events. PROPRIETARY INVESTING AND TRADING The Proprietary Investing and Trading sector includes results from our market risk positioning and capital and liquidity management activities. Total revenues were $276 million for the 1997 first quarter compared with $215 million a year earlier and were broadly diversified across markets. The 28% increase in reported revenues reflects higher trading revenues, partially offset by lower net interest revenue from investing activities as higher-yielding investments, principally interest rate swaps, continue to mature. The Proprietary Investing and Trading sector recorded pretax income of $230 million in the first quarter of 1997 compared with $179 million in the same period a year ago. Total return - reported revenues plus the change in net unrealized appreciation - for the 1997 first quarter increased to $365 million from $106 million, as most trading and investing strategies produced higher returns. 20 PAGE 20 CORPORATE ITEMS Corporate Items includes revenues and expenses that have not been allocated to the five business sectors, intercompany eliminations, the taxable-equivalent adjustment and the results of sold or discontinued businesses. Corporate Items includes $59 million of gains on hedges of anticipated foreign currency revenues and expenses. These gains were partially offset by the impact of exchange rate movements on reported revenues and expenses in the quarter. Corporate Items also includes revenues and expenses of $37 million and $47 million, respectively, in the first quarter of 1996, from custody and cash processing activities, previously exited by Morgan. 21 PAGE 21 Client-focused activities by region J.P. Morgan's clients are an increasingly global and diverse group of growing and established companies, governments and their agencies, and privately held firms, entrepreneurs, families, and individuals. We continue to broaden and deepen client relationships in North America; Latin America; Europe, Middle East, and Africa; and Asia Pacific. Regional results can be analyzed in a number of ways. In the table below, combined results for our client-focused business sectors are broken down by region responsible for managing the client relationship. Europe, Total North Latin Middle East Asia Client- In millions America America and Africa Pacific Focused - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First Quarter 1997 Revenues $735 $136 $477 $211 $1,559 Expenses 563 50 344 119 1,076 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretax Income 172 86 133 92 483 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First Quarter 1996 Revenues 680 135 552 165 1,532 Expenses 493 46 298 103 940 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretax Income 187 89 254 62 592 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The firm's management reporting system was used to determine the revenues and expenses attributable to each region. For finance and advisory products, this is the location of the client's head office; for most other products, it is based on the location where activity is transacted. Market-making revenues that cannot be specifically attributable to individual clients (i.e., gains/losses arising from client-related positions) and earnings on stockholders' equity are generally allocated based on the proportion of other regional revenues. Expenses are allocated based on the estimated cost associated with servicing the client base in the region. North American client revenues for the first quarter increased 8% across all client-focused sectors, compared with the first quarter of 1996. Increases in market-making revenues in emerging markets and in equities and foreign exchange were partially offset by declines in fixed income revenues. Finance and advisory revenues were up on higher underwriting and loan syndication revenues. Asset management and servicing revenues were higher versus a year ago. Client revenues in Latin America were essentially unchanged in the first quarter of 1997, compared with the prior year first quarter, as higher finance and advisory revenues were offset by declines in market-making revenues. Client revenues in Europe declined 14% in the first quarter of 1997 from the first quarter of 1996. Market-making revenues in fixed income were lower with declines more than offsetting increases in other market-making activities. Asset management and servicing revenues increased, while finance and advisory revenues were down. Asia Pacific client revenues rose 28% over the same period in 1996, as each of the three client-focused sectors posted strong increases in revenues. 22 PAGE 22 The following table summarizes business sector results for the full year and each of the four quarters of 1996. These amounts have been reclassified subsequent to the issuance of the 1996 Annual report to conform with the current presentation. Refer to Business Sector methodology on page 18.

Morgan's businesses are market, liquidity, credit, and operating risk. Comprehensive risk management processes have been established to facilitate, control, and monitor risk-taking. These processes are built on a foundation of early identification and analytically rigorous measurement of risks by each of our businesses. Refer to the 1996 Annual report for further information. Market Risk Profiles The firm's primary measure of value at risk is referred to as "Daily Earnings at Risk" (DEaR). This measure takes into account numerous variables that may cause a change in the value of our portfolios, including interest rates, foreign exchange rates, securities and commodities prices, and their volatilities, as well as correlations among these variables. DEaR measures potential losses that are expected to occur within a 95% confidence level, implying that a loss might exceed DEaR approximately 5% of the time. The following presents the market risk profiles for the firm for the twelve months ended March 31, 1997. The level of market risk, which is measured on a diversified basis, will vary with market factors, the level of client activity, and our expectations of price and market movements. Aggregate Market Risk Activities For the twelve months ended March 31, 1997, average DEaR for our aggregate trading and investing activities across all market risks was approximately $31 million and ranged from $24 million to $44 million, essentially unchanged from the twelve months ended December 31, 1996. Trading Market Risk Activities For the twelve months ended March 31, 1997, average DEaR for our trading activities was approximately $21 million and ranged from $12 million to $30 million. Such DEaR represented the combination of interest rate risk of approximately $15 million, foreign exchange rate risk of approximately $6 million, equities risk of approximately $5 million, commodity risk of approximately $4 million and all other market risks of approximately $7 million, offset by approximately ($16) million reflecting additional diversification among these risks. For the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, average DEaR for our trading activities was approximately $21 million and ranged from $13 million to $28 million. We evaluate the reasonableness of DEaR by comparing DEaR to actual trading results. The number of occurrences where daily revenue fell short of expected daily results by amounts greater than related DEaR estimates was consistent with statistical expectations. Proprietary Investing Activities The primary sources of market risk associated with our proprietary investing activities relate to interest rate risk associated with fixed income securities and interest rate swaps and spread risk associated with our mortgage-backed securities portfolio. For the twelve month period ended March 31, 1997, average DEaR for proprietary investing activities was approximately $23 million and ranged from $16 million to $37 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, average DEaR for proprietary investing activities was approximately $22 million and ranged from $10 million to $37 million. Due to the longer-term nature of our investing activities, we use a weekly time horizon to evaluate our risk estimates relative to total return. For the twelve month period ended March 31, 1997, the number of occurrences where total return fell short of expected weekly results by amounts greater than related weekly risk estimates was consistent with statistical expectations. 24 PAGE 24 FINANCIAL REVIEW REVENUES Revenues totaled $1.833 billion in the first quarter of 1997, up 5% from $1.740 billion a year earlier. Net interest revenue, the aggregate of interest revenue and expense generated from the firm's client-focused and proprietary activities using a variety of asset, liability, and off-balance-sheet instruments, increased 14% to $450 million from the first quarter of 1996. This increase resulted from higher trading-related net interest revenue from our market-making activities, partially offset by a decline in net interest revenue from proprietary investing and trading positions as a result of the continuing maturity of higher-yielding investments, principally interest rate swaps. Trading revenue declined 8% to $697 million in the first quarter of 1997 from $758 million in the year-earlier quarter. The following table presents trading revenue, disaggregated by principal product groupings. Such revenue represents only a portion of the total revenues generated by the business activities discussed in the Business Sector Analysis, and does not include related Net interest revenue. Fixed Foreign Commod- Proprietary In millions Income Equities Exchange ities Trading Total - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First Quarter 1997 $346 $111 $120 $13 $107 $697 First Quarter 1996 533 94 68 34 29 758 Fourth Quarter 1996 273 69 84 10 76 512 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed income trading revenue declined to $346 million from $533 million in the year-earlier quarter, when revenues benefited from gains on positions arising from client-related swap transactions. Overall, the volume of client transactions grew in the first quarter of 1997, but the number of higher-yielding, customized transactions declined. Trading revenue from equities increased 18% to $111 million, as a result of strong demand in both the cash and derivative markets. Foreign exchange trading revenue increased to $120 million from $68 million a year ago, on strong client demand in active markets. Trading revenue from commodities was $13 million, down from $34 million in the first quarter of 1996. Proprietary trading revenue increased sharply to $107 million from a year ago, as most trading strategies produced higher returns. Investment banking revenue advanced 12% to $226 million in the first quarter of 1997, compared to a year ago. Underwriting revenue grew to $97 million from $65 million in the year-earlier quarter, as issuers took advantage of favorable market conditions. Advisory and syndication fees in the first quarter declined to $129 million from $136 million a year earlier. Lower advisory fees in the first quarter of 1997, compared to the first quarter of 1996, when fees from several large transactions were recorded, were partially offset by higher loan syndication revenues. Investment management revenue increased 17% to $184 million from a year ago, as assets under management rose due to net new business and, to a lesser extent, market appreciation. Assets under management at March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 were $214 billion and $186 billion, respectively. Fees and commissions of $148 million in the first quarter were essentially flat compared with the year earlier quarter, as increased equity commissions were offset by declines in futures and options brokerage revenue and fees from other operational services. Investment securities revenue declined $17 million to $61 million from $78 million in the 1996 first quarter, when gains were recognized from the sale of a large investment. Other revenue was $67 million in the first quarter, compared with $(1) million a year earlier. The 1997 first quarter includes $64 million ($59 million in Corporate Items) of gains on hedges of anticipated foreign currency revenues and expenses. These gains were partially offset by the impact of exchange rate movements on reported revenues and expenses in the quarter. 25 PAGE 25 OPERATING EXPENSES Operating expenses were $1.191 billion in the first quarter, up 10% from a year ago. The increase reflects ongoing investments in areas targeted for growth, including investment banking, equities, investment management, and private client services, as well as higher levels of business activity. Management has initiated a firm-wide effort to respond to the technological challenges presented by the year 2000, and has begun to incur related costs, which include internal staffing and consulting services. These costs will be incurred over the next three years, and are not expected to materially impact results of operations in any one given period. At March 31, 1997, staff totaled 15,483 employees compared with 15,431 employees at March 31, 1996. Income tax expense in the first quarter totaled $218 million, based on an effective tax rate of 34%, compared with 33% in the first quarter of 1996. ASSETS Total assets were $226 billion at March 31, 1997, compared with $222 billion at December 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997, the aggregate allowance for credit losses was $1.113 billion versus $1.116 billion at December 31, 1996. Nonperforming assets decreased to $110 million at March 31, 1997, from $120 million at December 31, 1996, as assets newly classified as nonperforming were more than offset by assets returned to performing status, repayments, and charge-offs. No provision for credit losses was deemed necessary in the 1997 first quarter. 26 PAGE 26 FOREIGN-COUNTRY-RELATED OUTSTANDINGS Foreign-country-related outstandings represent outstandings to foreign borrowers that are denominated in U.S. dollars or currencies other than the borrower's local currency or, in the case of a guarantee, other than the guarantor's local currency. Outstandings include loans, interest-earning deposits with banks, investment securities, customers' acceptance liability, securities purchased under agreements to resell, trading account securities, accrued interest, and other monetary assets. Outstandings generally are distributed according to the location and category of the borrower. In the case of guaranteed outstandings or when tangible, liquid collateral is held and realizable outside the obligor's country, distribution is generally made according to the location and category of the guarantor or the location where the collateral is held and realizable. Countries in which J.P. Morgan's outstandings exceeded 1.0% of total assets at March 31, 1997, are listed in the following table. In millions Cross-border outstandings -------------------------------------------------------------------------- France $4,899 United Kingdom 3,087 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- At March 31, 1997, cross-border outstandings in Switzerland and Mexico were $2,118 and $2,090 (a), respectively, between 0.75% and 1.0% of total assets. (a) Not included in the Mexican cross-border outstandings above are United Mexican States (UMS) bonds, which are collateralized by U.S. Treasury Securities. If the book value of these bonds in excess of underlying collateral, which is discussed below, had been included, total Mexican cross-border outstandings would not have exceeded 1% of total assets at March 31, 1997. The UMS bonds are collateralized as to principal by zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities with a face value equal to the face value of the underlying bonds. The collateral, which will become available when the UMS bonds mature, is pledged to the holders of the bonds and is held by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

(b) In accordance with Federal Reserve Board guidelines, the risk-based capital and leverage amounts and ratios exclude the equity, assets and off-balance sheet exposures of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and the effect of SFAS No. 115. (c) In accordance with Federal Reserve Board guidelines, the ratios exclude the effect of SFAS No. 115. The March 31, 1996 ratios were restated to reflect the merger of J.P. Morgan Delaware with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, effective June 1996. The capital of J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York (Morgan Guaranty) remained well above the minimum standards set by regulators at March 31, 1997. Further, the capital ratios of J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty exceeded the minimum standards for a "well capitalized" bank holding company and bank, respectively, at March 31, 1997. At March 31, 1997, stockholders' equity included approximately $402 million of net unrealized appreciation on debt investment and marketable equity investment securities, net the related deferred tax liability of $227 million. This compares with $464 million of net unrealized appreciation at December 31, 1996, net the related deferred tax liability of $268 million. The net unrealized appreciation on debt investment securities was $243 million and $255 million at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. The net unrealized appreciation on marketable equity investment securities was $386 million at March 31, 1997, and $477 million at December 31, 1996. In January 1997, JPM Capital Trust II, a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan, issued $400 million qualifying as tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines through an issue of 7.95% trust preferred securities due 2027. The firm purchased $555 million of J.P. Morgan common stock in the open market during the first quarter of 1997, following the Board of Directors' December 1996 authorization of the purchase of up to $750 million of shares. The firm also continued its program of purchasing J.P. Morgan shares to lessen the dilutive impact on earnings per share of the firm's employee benefit plans. 28 PAGE 28 CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES AND NET INTEREST EARNINGS J.P. Morgan & Co.

Morgan's investing activities is to create longer-term value through the management of interest rate risk related to J.P. Morgan's nontrading assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet activities. J.P. Morgan utilizes a variety of financial instruments, including derivatives, in an integrated manner to achieve these objectives. Additional information on derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading, primarily interest rate swaps, is provided below. For more information about investing activities, see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, Off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The table below summarizes maturities and weighted-average interest rates to be received and paid on U.S. dollar and non-U.S. dollar interest rate swaps used for purposes other-than-trading at March 31, 1997. The majority of nontrading interest rate swaps, as presented below, are risk-adjusting swaps. Also included in the table are swaps designated as hedges or used to modify the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities. Variable rates presented are generally based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in effect on the swaps at March 31, 1997, and reset at predetermined dates. The table was prepared under the assumption that these variable interest rates remain constant. The variable interest rates to be received or paid will change to the extent that rates fluctuate. Such changes may be substantial. Not included in the table below are other derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading, such as currency swaps, basis swaps, foreign exchange contracts, interest rate futures, forward rate agreements, debt securities forwards, and purchased options, totaling $61.2 billion at March 31, 1997. The contractual maturities of these derivative contracts are primarily less than one year.
