Both the earnings release and the financial supplement are available online in the Investor Relations section at www.morganstanley.com.

NOTICE:

The information provided herein and in the financial supplement, including information provided on the Firm’s earnings conference calls, may include certain non-GAAP financial measures. The definition of such measures or reconciliation of such measures to the comparable U.S. GAAP figures are included in this earnings release and the financial supplement, both of which are available on www.morganstanley.com.

This earnings release may contain forward-looking statements, including the attainment of certain financial and other targets, objectives and goals.

^1^ Includes preferred dividends related to the calculation of earnings per share of $138 million and $108 million for the first quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

^2^ 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 position, 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 analysts, investors and other stakeholders in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing our financial condition, operating results, or capital adequacy. 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.

^3^ Our earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and other communications may also include certain metrics which we believe to be useful to us, analysts, investors, and other stakeholders by providing further transparency about, or an additional means of assessing, our financial condition and operating results.

^4^ As part of the Firm’s effort to continually improve the transparency and comparability of our external financial reporting, several updates to our financial presentation were implemented in the first quarter of 2021. The presentation changes are as follows:

(i) The Provision for credit losses for loans and lending commitments is now presented as a separate line in the consolidated income statements.
(ii) Gains and losses on external economic derivative hedges associated with held-for-sale and held-for-investment corporate loans, which were previously reported in Trading revenues, are now<br> reported within Other revenues in the consolidated income statements.
--- ---
(iii) In the Institutional Securities segment, sales and trading net revenues have been reorganized and reported into the following categories, Equity, Fixed Income and Other. In addition,<br> Equity and Fixed Income now include certain Investments and Other revenues to the extent directly attributable to those businesses. The remaining Investments and Other revenues, along with amounts previously disclosed as “Other sales and<br> trading” will be shown as “Other”.
--- ---
(iv) In the Investment Management segment, we have renamed the previously disclosed revenue line “Asset management” to “Asset management and related fees” and combined the remaining revenue<br> categories under a new line named “Performance-based income and other”.
--- ---

The corresponding reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to the current presentation. For further information about these changes, see the Firm’s first quarter 2021 financial supplement available online in the Investor Relations section at www.morganstanley.com.

^5^ Firm and Institutional Securities net revenues and Firm net income applicable to Morgan Stanley represent records for a reported quarterly period after excluding the impact of debt valuation adjustments (DVA), which were previously reflected in net revenues in prior periods, and reflecting the current reporting structure of the Firm (i.e. exclusive of discontinued operations).  Net revenues and net income applicable to Morgan Stanley, excluding the impact of DVA, were non-GAAP financial measures in those prior periods that were reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures in the respective quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q.

^6^ Return on average tangible common equity and return on average tangible common equity excluding integration-related expenses are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for analysts, investors and other stakeholders to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance and capital adequacy.  The calculation of return on average tangible common equity represents full year net income or annualized net income applicable for the quarter applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average tangible common equity.  Tangible common equity, also a non-GAAP financial measure, represents common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction.  The calculation of return on average tangible common equity and return on average tangible common equity excluding integration-related expenses are adjusted in both the numerator and the denominator to exclude the integration-related expenses associated with the acquisitions of E*TRADE and Eaton Vance.

^7^ The Firm’s first quarter results include $75 million of integration-related expenses on a pre-tax basis ($58 million after-tax) as a result of the E*TRADE and Eaton Vance acquisitions.  The integration-related expenses include $33 million in compensation expense and $42 million in non-compensation expense.  Wealth Management and Investment Management integration-related expenses include $30 million and $3 million in compensation expense, respectively, and $34 million and $8 million in non-compensation expense, respectively.

^^


^8^ The Firm expense efficiency ratio of 67% represents total non-interest expenses as a percentage of net revenues.  The Firm expense efficiency ratio excluding integration-related expenses of 66% represents total non-interest expenses adjusted for integration-related expenses as a percentage of net revenues. The Firm expense efficiency ratio excluding integration-related expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for analysts, investors and other stakeholders to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance.

^9^ Pre-tax margin represents income before taxes divided by net revenues.  Wealth Management pre-tax margin excluding the integration-related expenses represents income before taxes less those expenses divided by net revenues.  Wealth Management pre-tax margin excluding integration-related expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for analysts, investors and other stakeholders to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance.

^10^ Pre-tax income represents income before taxes.

^11^ Wealth Management fee-based client assets represent the amount of assets in client accounts where the basis of payment for services is a fee calculated on those assets.

^12^ Wealth Management fee-based asset flows include net new fee-based assets, net account transfers, dividends, interest, and client fees and exclude institutional cash management related activity.

^13^ Wealth Management net new assets represents client inflows (including dividend and interest) less client outflows (excluding activity from business combinations/divestitures and impact of fees and commissions).

^14^ AUM is defined as assets under management.

^15^ Long-term net flows include the Equity, Fixed Income and Alternative and Solutions asset classes and exclude the Liquidity and Overlay Services asset class.

^16^ Transactional revenues include investment banking, trading, and commissions and fee revenues.  Transactional revenues excluding the impact of mark-to-market gains on investments associated with certain employee deferred compensation plans is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Firm considers useful for analysts, investors and other stakeholders to allow better comparability of period-to-period operating performance and capital adequacy.

^17^ Capital ratios are estimates as of the press release date, April 16, 2021.

^18^ CET1 capital is defined as Common Equity Tier 1 capital.  The Firm’s risk-based capital ratios are computed under each of the (i) standardized approaches for calculating credit risk and market risk risk‐weighted assets (RWAs) (the “Standardized Approach”) and (ii) applicable advanced approaches for calculating credit risk, market risk and operational risk RWAs (the “Advanced Approach”).  For information on the calculation of regulatory capital and ratios, and associated regulatory requirements, please refer to "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (2020 Form 10-K).

^19^ The Tier 1 leverage ratio is a leverage-based capital requirement that measures the Firm’s leverage.  Tier 1 leverage ratio utilizes Tier 1 capital as the numerator and average adjusted assets as the denominator.

^20^ The Firm’s supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) utilizes a Tier 1 capital numerator of approximately $84.1 billion and $73.9 billion, and supplementary leverage exposure denominator of approximately $1.26 trillion and $1.19 trillion, for the first quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.  Based on a Federal Reserve interim final rule in effect until March 31, 2021, our SLR and supplementary leverage exposure as of March 31, 2021 reflect the exclusion of U.S. Treasury securities and deposits at Federal Reserve Banks.  The exclusion of these assets had the effect of increasing our SLR by 0.7% as of March 31, 2021.

^21^ The income tax consequences related to employee share-based payments are recognized in Provision for income taxes in the consolidated income statement, and may be either a benefit or a provision. The impacts of recognizing excess tax benefits upon conversion of awards are $82 million and $99 million for the first quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As part of the Firm’s effort to continually improve the transparency and comparability of our external financial<br> reporting, several updates to our financial presentation were implemented in the first quarter of 2021. The corresponding reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to the<br> current presentation. The presentation changes are as follows:
(i) The Provision for credit losses for loans and lending commitments is now presented as a separate line in the<br> consolidated income statements.
(ii) Gains and losses on external economic derivative hedges associated with held-for-sale and held-for-investment<br> corporate loans, which were previously reported in Trading revenues, are now reported within Other revenues in the consolidated income statements.
(iii) In the Institutional Securities segment, sales and trading net revenues have been reorganized and reported<br> into the following categories, Equity, Fixed Income and Other. In addition, Equity and Fixed Income now include certain Investments and Other revenues to the extent directly attributable to<br> those businesses. The remaining Investments and Other revenues, along with amounts previously disclosed as “Other sales and trading” will be shown as “Other”.

As part of the Firm’s effort to continually improve the transparency and comparability of our external<br> financial reporting, several updates to our financial presentation were implemented in the first quarter of 2021. The corresponding reclassifications have been made to prior periods to<br> conform to the current presentation. The presentation changes are as follows:
(i) The Provision for credit losses for loans and lending commitments is now presented as a separate line in<br> the consolidated income statements.
(ii) In the Investment Management segment, we have renamed the previously disclosed revenue line “Asset<br> management” to “Asset management and related fees” and combined the remaining revenue categories under a new line named “Performance-based income and other”.

Definition of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

(a) The Firm prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements using accounting<br> 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<br> earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and otherwise.  The Securities and Exchange Commission defines a “non-GAAP financial measure” as a<br> numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial positions, or cash flows that is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude, or include amounts<br> 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<br> additional information to analysts, investors and other stakeholders in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing, our<br> 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<br> 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<br> 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<br> 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 Annual Report on<br> Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
(b) The following are considered non-GAAP financial measures that the<br> Firm considers useful for analysts, investors and other stakeholders to allow comparability of operating performance and capital adequacy.  These measures are calculated as<br> follows:
- Earnings per diluted share excluding integration-related expenses represents net income applicable to Morgan Stanley, adjusted for the impact of the integration-related<br> expenses associated with the acquisitions of E*TRADE and Eaton Vance, less preferred dividends divided by the average number of diluted shares outstanding.
- The return on average tangible common equity represents<br> annualized earnings applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity.
- The return on average common equity and the return on average<br> tangible common equity excluding integration-related expenses are adjusted in both the numerator and the denominator to exclude the integration-related expenses associated with<br> the acquisitions of E*TRADE and Eaton Vance.
- Segment return on average common equity and return on average<br> tangible common equity represent full year net income or annualized net income for the quarter applicable to Morgan Stanley for each segment, less preferred dividend segment<br> allocation, divided by average common equity and average tangible common equity for each respective segment.  The segment adjustments to common equity to derive segment average<br> tangible common equity are generally set at the beginning of the year, and will remain fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business<br> change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition).
- Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of certain mortgage servicing<br> rights deduction.
- Tangible book value per common share represents tangible common equity divided by period end common shares outstanding.
- Pre-tax profit margin excluding integration-related expenses<br> represents income before income taxes less integration-related expenses associated with the acquisitions of E*TRADE and Eaton Vance as percentages of net revenues.
- The Firm expense efficiency ratio excluding integration-related<br> expenses represents total non‐interest expenses less integration-related expenses associated with the acquisitions of E*TRADE and Eaton Vance as a percentage of net revenues.

Definitions of Performance Metrics and Terms

Our earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and other communications may also include certain metrics which we believe to be useful to us, analysts, investors and other stakeholders by providing further transparency about, or an additional means of assessing, our financial condition and operating results.

Page 4:
(a) The Firm's attribution of average common equity to the business segments is based on the<br> Required Capital framework, an internal capital adequacy measure. This framework is a risk-based and leverage-based capital measure, which is compared with the Firm's regulatory<br> 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 Required<br> Capital Framework is based on the Firm's regulatory capital requirements. The Firm defines the difference between its total average common equity and the sum of the average common<br> equity amounts allocated to its business segments as Parent common equity.  The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of the year,<br> and will remain fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition).  The Firm has made updates to<br> its required capital framework for 2021 and continues to evaluate with respect to the impact of evolving regulatory requirements, as appropriate.  For further discussion of the<br> framework, refer to "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm's<br> 2020 Form 10-K.
(b) The Firm's risk‐based capital ratios are computed under each of the (i) standardized<br> approaches for calculating credit risk and market risk risk‐weighted assets (RWAs) (the “Standardized Approach”) and (ii) applicable advanced approaches for calculating credit risk,<br> market risk and operational risk RWAs (the “Advanced Approach”). For information on the calculation of regulatory capital and ratios, and associated regulatory requirements, please<br> refer to "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm’s 2020 Form<br> 10‐K.
(c) Supplementary leverage ratio represents Tier 1 capital divided by the total<br> supplementary leverage exposure.
Page 5:

(b) Pre-tax profit margin percentages represent income before income taxes as percentages of<br> net revenues.
(c) VaR represents the unrealized loss in portfolio value that one would not expect to<br> 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<br> of the calculation of VaR and the limitations of the Firm's VaR methodology, is disclosed in "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk" included in the Firm's 2020 Form<br> 10-K.
