 End Notes  These notes refer to the financial metrics presented on Slide 3.Pre-Tax Profit is defined as income from continuing operations before income taxes.Represents net income applicable to Morgan Stanley.Estimated by combining the actual results for peers that have reported full-year 2018 results as of January 16, 2019, and for the European peers that have not yet reported 2018 results, nine months of 2018 annualized.Pre-Tax Margin represents income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes divided by net revenues. Pre-Tax Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess operating performance.These notes refer to the financial metrics presented on Slide 4.Represents results against the 2018-2019 Strategic Objectives established at the beginning of 2018.Pre-Tax Margin represents income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes divided by net revenues. Pre-Tax Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess operating performance.Operating growth rate percentages for Institutional Securities (‘ISG’) net revenues and Investment Management (‘IM’) asset management revenues exclude the impact of the 2018 gross ups which resulted from the adoption of the accounting update, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (‘Revenue Recognition’). See Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018 (‘March 2018 10-Q’) for information on the adoption of the Revenue Recognition accounting update. In determining the growth rate percentages approximately $320 million was excluded from ISG 2018 net revenues and approximately $78 million was excluded from IM 2018 asset management revenues. Growth rate percentages excluding the impact of the adoption of the Revenue Recognition accounting update are non-GAAP financial measures the Firm considers useful for investors to assess year-over-year operating performance.Long-term net flows include the equity, fixed income and alternative/other asset classes and exclude the liquidity asset class.Firm Expense Efficiency Ratio represents total non-interest expenses as a percentage of net revenues.In June 2018, we received a conditional non-objection to our Capital Plan, where the only condition was that our capital distributions not exceed the greater of the actual distributions we made over the previous four calendar quarters, or the annualized average of actual distributions over the previous eight calendar quarters. Our 2018 Capital Plan includes the repurchase of up to $4.7 billion of outstanding common stock for the four quarters beginning in the third quarter of 2018 through the end of the second quarter of 2019, as well as an increase in the Firm’s quarterly common stock dividend to $0.30 per share from the previous $0.25 per share that commenced with the dividend announced on June 28, 2018. The total amount of expected 2018 capital distributions is consistent with the $6.8 billion of actual dividends and gross share repurchases included in our 2017 Capital Plan.The calculation of return on average common equity (‘ROE’), for both the medium term target and 2018 results, utilizes net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average common equity, exclusive of intermittent discrete tax items. The 2018 ROE result excludes intermittent net discrete tax benefits of approximately $203 million, which resulted in an approximate 30 basis point reduction in ROE. When excluding intermittent net discrete tax benefits, both the ROE numerator and denominator are adjusted. ROE excluding intermittent discrete tax items is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess operating performance. The calculation of return on average tangible common equity (‘ROTCE’), for both the medium term target and 2018 results, utilizes net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average tangible common equity, exclusive of intermittent discrete tax items. Tangible Common Equity (‘TCE’) equals common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights. The 2018 ROTCE result excludes intermittent net discrete tax benefits of approximately $203 million, which resulted in an approximate 30 basis point reduction in ROTCE. When excluding intermittent net discrete tax benefits, both the ROTCE numerator and denominator are adjusted. ROTCE excluding intermittent discrete tax items and TCE are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess operating performance.  18 

 End Notes  These notes refer to the financial metrics presented on Slide 5.Relatively stable revenue sources represent revenues associated with fee-based pricing arrangements, financing and lending that are generally less susceptible to significant fluctuation as a result of market volatility when compared to other Firm revenues, and are comprised of: Asset Management revenues in the Wealth and Investment Management segments; revenues from Financing and Secured Lending activities in the ISG and Wealth Management (‘WM’) segments; and revenues from Investment Banking Advisory services.Relatively volatile revenues comprise the remainder of Firm revenues, including revenues from: Sales and Trading activities (excluding the ISG Financing and Secured Lending activities noted above); Investment Banking Underwriting and Lending activities; WM Transactional activities; Investments; other Lending activities; and any other sources.The percentages of total net revenues are calculated as relatively stable or relatively volatile revenue sources, respectively as a percentage of total net revenues for the period indicated. Total net revenues of approximately $33 billion utilized as the denominator in the 2013 calculation excludes the negative impact of approximately $681 million from Debt Valuation Adjustment (‘DVA’). DVA represents the change in fair value resulting from fluctuations in our credit spreads and other credit factors related to liabilities carried under the fair value option. Net revenues excluding DVA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess year-over-year operating performance. The calculation of ROE utilizes net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average common equity, exclusive of intermittent discrete tax items. The 2018 and 2013 ROE percentages exclude intermittent net discrete tax benefits of approximately $203 million (an approximate 30 basis point reduction in ROE) and approximately $407 million (approximate 60 basis point reduction in ROE), respectively. Beginning in 2017, income tax consequences associated with employee share-based awards are recognized in the provision for income taxes in the income statement, but are excluded from the intermittent net discrete tax items adjustment, as we anticipate conversion activity each year. See Note 2 to the financial statements included in our 2017 Form 10-K for information on the adoption of the accounting update, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The calculation of ROE for 2013 also excludes the negative net of tax impact of approximately $452 million from DVA (approximate 60 basis point increase in ROE). When excluding intermittent net discrete tax benefits and DVA, both the ROE numerator and denominator are adjusted. The calculations of ROE, excluding intermittent discrete tax items and DVA are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess year-over-year operating performance.These notes refer to the financial metrics presented on Slide 6.Dividends are reflected based on the amount increased to within the calendar period noted. Share repurchases represent actual shares re-acquired during the year noted, representing a blend of two sequential CCAR cycles.The calculations of ROE and ROTCE for each year utilize net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average common equity and average tangible common equity, respectively, exclusive of intermittent discrete tax items. The calculations for 2015 also exclude the impact of DVA. The 2018 ROE and ROTCE percentages exclude intermittent net discrete tax benefits of approximately $203 million (an approximate 30 basis point reduction). For reconciliations of ROE and ROTCE, excluding intermittent discrete tax items and DVA for the years 2015 through 2017, see pages 37 and 38 of the 2017 Form 10-K. When excluding intermittent net discrete tax items and DVA, both the ROE and ROTCE numerators and denominators are adjusted. Beginning in 2017, income tax consequences associated with employee share-based awards are recognized in the provision for income taxes in the income statement, but are excluded from the intermittent net discrete tax items adjustment, as we anticipate conversion activity each year. ROE and ROTCE, excluding intermittent discrete tax items and DVA are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess year-over-year operating performance.Tangible Common Equity (‘TCE’) equals common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights. TCE is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for investors to assess capital adequacy.  19

Fixed Income Sales & Trading Net Revenues, excluding DVA is a non-GAAP financial measure the Firm considers useful for investors to allow better comparability of period to period operating performance.Equity Sales & Trading net revenues, exclude: for 2013, the negative impact from DVA of $78 million; for 2014, the positive impact from DVA of $232 million; for 2015, the positive impact from DVA of $163 million. Equity Sales & Trading Net Revenues, excluding DVA is a non-GAAP financial measure the Firm considers useful for investors to allow better comparability of period to period operating performance.The 2018 Wallet estimates utilize actual results for peers that have reported full-year 2018 results as of January 16, 2019. For the European peers that have not yet reported 2018 results, the full year estimate is derived by assuming the aggregate share of the European peers for the first nine months remains constant in the fourth quarter of 2018.These notes refer to the financial metrics presented on Slide 9.Source: Indicators from the World Economic Outlook published October 2018 by the International Monetary FundISG operates in both U.S. and non-U.S. markets, with non-U.S. business activities principally conducted and managed through EMEA and Asia locations.
