On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted that significantly revises U.S. corporate income tax law by, among other things, reducing the corporate income tax rate to 21% and implementing a modified territorial tax system, that includes a one‐time transition tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries.  The quarter and full year ended December 31, 2017 includes a net discrete tax provision of approximately $1.2 billion as a result of the enactment of the Tax Act, partially offset by an approximate $168 million net discrete tax benefit in the quarter and $233 million in the full year primarily associated with the remeasurement of reserves and related interest relating to the status of multi‐year Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax examinations.  This resulted in a net discrete tax provision of $990 million for the fourth quarter of 2017 and $925 million for the full year 2017.  The prior year included a net discrete tax benefit of $135 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and $68 million in the full year 2016, primarily related to the remeasurement of reserves and related interest due to new information regarding the status of a multi‐year IRS tax examination.  The quarter ended September 30, 2017 included a discrete tax benefit of $83 million primarily resulting from the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets.

The 2017 net discrete tax provision and benefit reflected above does not include the recurring-type discrete tax benefit associated with the accounting guidance related to employee share‐based payments.
 
The estimated enactment net discrete tax provision incorporates assumptions made based upon the Firm’s current interpretation of the Tax Act, and may change as it receives additional clarification and implementation guidance and as the interpretation of the Tax Act evolves over time.

Definition of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
   
(a)
The Firm prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP).  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.  The Securities and Exchange Commission 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 U.S. GAAP.  Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by Morgan Stanley are provided as additional information to investors and analysts in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing, our financial condition, operating results, or prospective regulatory capital requirements.  These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for U.S. 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 define it or present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference and such comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.  In addition to the following notes, please also refer to the Firm's fourth quarter earnings release footnotes for such definitions and reconciliations.
   
(b)
The following are considered non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for investors to allow better comparability of operating performance. These measures are calculated as follows:
-  The earnings per diluted share amounts, excluding net discrete tax provision / benefit represent net income (loss) applicable to Morgan Stanley, adjusted for the impact of the net discrete tax provision / benefit, less preferred dividends divided by the average number of diluted shares outstanding.
-  The return on average common equity equals annualized net income for the quarter or full year net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average common equity.
-  The return on average common equity excluding net discrete tax provision / benefit is adjusted in both the numerator and the denominator to exclude the net discrete tax provision / benefit.
-  Tangible common equity equals common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction.
-  Tangible book value per common share equals tangible common equity divided by period end common shares outstanding.
-  Pre-tax profit margin percentages represent income from continuing operations before income taxes as percentages of net revenues.
-  The Firm expense efficiency ratio represents total non-interest expenses as a percentage of net revenues.
   
(c)
The fully phased-in Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios and fully phased-in Supplementary Leverage Ratio are pro-forma estimates which represent non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers to be useful measures for evaluating compliance with new regulatory capital requirements that have not yet become effective.  Supplementary leverage ratio equals fully phased-in Tier 1 capital divided by the fully phased-in total supplementary leverage exposure.  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 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.

Definition of Performance Metrics
 
(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.
(h)
The Firm's risk-based capital ratios for purposes of determining regulatory compliance are the lower of the capital ratios computed under the (i) standardized approaches for calculating credit risk RWAs and market risk RWAs (the “Standardized Approach”); and (ii) applicable advanced approaches for calculating credit risk, market risk and operational risk RWAs (the “Advanced Approach”).  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.
(i)

(k)
VaR represents the loss amount that one would not expect to exceed, on average, more than five times every one hundred trading days in the Firm's trading positions if the portfolio were held constant for a one-day period. Further discussion of the calculation of VaR and the limitations of the Firm's VaR methodology, is disclosed in Part II, Item 7A "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" included in the Firm's 2016 Form 10-K.
