Exhibit 99.1

News release: IMMEDIATE

GOVERNMENT CONCLUDES NO NEED FOR JPMORGAN CHASE TO RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL

COMPANY’S TIER 1 COMMON RATIO AT 7.3% AS OF 3/31/09; WOULD REMAIN WELL IN EXCESS OF GOVERNMENT’S 4.0% BUFFER LEVEL UNDER MORE ADVERSE SCENARIO

TIER 1 CAPITAL OF 11.4% AS OF 3/31/09 (9.3% EXCLUDING TARP) ALSO WOULD REMAIN VERY STRONG UNDER GOVERNMENT SCENARIO

New York, May 7, 2009 — JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: JPM) confirmed today that it has completed the U.S. Government’s Supervisory Capital Assessment Program (SCAP), which determined that JPMorgan Chase’s capital position would remain strong under far more highly stressed conditions than exist today, and that there is no need for the company to raise additional capital at this time.

JPMorgan Chase’s existing strong capital base and loan-loss reserves, together with its significant pretax, pre-provision earnings power, would enable it to weather adverse scenarios envisioned by SCAP, while still maintaining very strong capital ratios. JPMC’s ratios under SCAP would remain very strong even when excluding TARP preferred stock. Importantly, the company believes it could handle a substantially worse environment than the Government’s adverse conditions, even though the company is not expecting such a scenario.

Specifically, JPMorgan Chase’s Tier 1 Capital Ratio is 11.4% — or 9.3% excluding TARP — as of March 31, 2009. The company’s Tier 1 Common Ratio is 7.3% as of March 31, 2009, which is well in excess of the Government’s 4.0% buffer level, and would remain so even under more highly adverse scenarios.

In particular, we remain committed to safe and sound lending and to being a responsible corporate citizen. In the first quarter of this year alone, JPMorgan Chase lent more than $150 billion to consumers, small businesses, non-profits, municipalities, corporations and others.”

Explanations Explanations of of JPM JPM Likely Likely Outcome Outcome

Primary difference is expense reductions. Assumes $3B loan loss reserve build

Multiple JPM stress scenarios currently suggest maximum losses of $5-6B for trading and $1-2B for private equity positions; JPM outcome does not relate to SCAP scenario

JPM has no intent to sell positions; no writedowns are expected

True-ups represent actual 1Q09 results

JPM believes it will be profitable under More Adverse scenario

No drastic measures assumed by JPM to reduce expense or discretionary investments

No gains on securities portfolio or business sales nor other extraordinary items

Even in a case worse than More Adverse scenario, JPM believes a loss over 2 years is unlikely because of incremental actions that could be taken

Historical performance by risk rating

Forecasted HPI by market

Credit quality migration: NPL rates, roll rates

Geographic and industry concentrations

Collateral levels

Purchase accounting adjustment represents losses on WaMu credit-impaired loans written down at the time of acquisition

JPM likely outcome reflects:

Estimated impact on capital from ‘09-’10 results of ~$11B (see slide 3)

RWA of $1,275B reflects consolidation impact from amendment of FAS 140

Fortress balance sheet can handle far worse environment

Capital ratios well in excess of “government buffers” of Tier 1 ratio of at least 6% and Tier 1 Common ratio of at least 4%

Extremely strong reserve levels

JPMORGAN GHASE & CO.

Summary

More Adverse scenario is a conservative stress test for a worse than expected environment

JPM’s existing strong capital and loan loss reserves together with extremely strong earnings power allow us to weather the SCAP stress test with no additional capital required

We can handle a substantially worse environment though we are not expecting it

In all cases we have the capital and intention to support an economic recovery by serving our clients needs, including credit

Subject to safe and sound lending practices

We remain very confident in the future prospects of our company
