NEW YORK, April 19, 2023 – Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) today reported net revenues of $14.5 billion for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared with $14.8 billion a year ago.  Net income applicable to Morgan Stanley was $3.0 billion, or $1.70 per diluted share,^1^^^compared with net income of $3.7 billion, or $2.02 per diluted share,^1^ for the same period a year ago.


James P. Gorman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The Firm delivered strong results with a ROTCE of 17% in a very unusual environment, demonstrating the strength of our business model. The investments we have made in our Wealth Management business continue to bear fruit as we added a robust $110 billion in net new assets this quarter. Equity and Fixed Income revenues were strong, although Investment Banking activity continued to be constrained. We maintained our strong capital levels and remain well positioned to provide long-term value to our shareholders.”

The Firm reported net revenues of $14.5 billion and net income of $3.0 billion as our businesses navigated a volatile market environment.
The Firm delivered ROTCE of 16.9%.^4^
The Firm expense efficiency ratio was 72%.^5^ Expenses for the quarter include integration-related expenses of $77<br> million.
Standardized Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 15.1%.^15^
Institutional Securities net revenues of $6.8 billion reflect strong performance in Equity and Fixed Income despite a less<br> favorable market environment compared to a year ago and lower results in Investment Banking.
Wealth Management attracted significant net new assets of $110 billion during the quarter.^6^ Net revenues were $6.6<br> billion, positively impacted by mark-to-market gains on investments associated with certain employee deferred compensation plans compared to losses a year ago. The business delivered a pre-tax margin of 26.1%.^7^ Results reflect<br> higher net interest income versus prior year primarily driven by higher interest rates, even as clients continue to redeploy sweep deposits. These results were partially offset by an increase in  expenses as well as higher provisions for<br> credit losses.
Investment Management results reflect net revenues of $1.3 billion on AUM of $1.4 trillion amid declines in asset values from a<br> year ago.

Institutional Securities

Institutional Securities reported net revenues for the current quarter of $6.8 billion compared with $7.7 billion a year ago. Pre-tax income was $1.9 billion compared with $2.8 billion a year ago.^8^

Investment Banking revenues down 24% from a year ago:

Advisory revenues decreased from a year ago driven by fewer completed M&A transactions.
Equity underwriting revenues decreased from a year ago primarily driven by lower IPO volumes.
Fixed income underwriting revenues decreased from a year ago primarily driven by lower non-investment grade loan issuances.
Equity net revenues down 14% from a year ago:
Equity net revenues declined compared to a strong prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower volumes and declines in global equity markets compared to a year ago.
Fixed Income net revenues down 12% from a year ago:
Fixed Income net revenues decreased from a year ago due to declines in commodities and foreign exchange as a result of lower volatility and client activity. The declines were partially offset by (1) higher<br> revenues in rates supported by interest rate volatility across geographies and (2) increased credit products revenues supported by client engagement.
Other:
Other revenues increased primarily driven by higher revenues on corporate lending activity, net of losses on loan hedges, and mark-to-market gains on investments associated with certain employee deferred<br> compensation plans compared to losses in the prior year quarter.

^1^ Includes preferred dividends related to the calculation of earnings per share of $144 million and $124 million for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, 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^ Return on average tangible common equity 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 and capital adequacy.  The calculation of return on average tangible common equity represents full year or annualized net income 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.

^5^ The Firm expense efficiency ratio represents total non-interest expenses as a percentage of net revenues. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Firm results include pre-tax integration-related expenses of $77 million, of which $53 million is reported in the Wealth Management business segment and $24 million is reported in the Investment Management business segment.

^6^ Wealth Management net new assets represent client inflows, including dividends and interest, and asset acquisitions, less client outflows, and exclude activity from business combinations/divestitures and the impact of fees and commissions.

^7^ Pre-tax margin represents income before provision for income taxes divided by net revenues.

^8^ Pre-tax income represents income before provision for income taxes.

^9^ 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.

^10^ Wealth Management fee-based asset flows include net new fee-based assets (including asset acquisitions), net account transfers, dividends, interest, and client fees, and exclude institutional cash management-related activity.

^11^ AUM is defined as assets under management.

^12^ Long-term net flows include the Equity, Fixed Income and Alternative and Solutions asset classes and excludes the Liquidity and Overlay Services asset class.

^13^ Transactional revenues include investment banking, trading, and commissions and fee revenues.

^14^ Capital ratios are estimates as of the press release date, April 19, 2023.

^15^ 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, 2022 (2022 Form 10-K).

^16^ 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.

^17^ The Firm’s supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) utilizes a Tier 1 capital numerator of approximately $77.9 billion and $80.1 billion, and supplementary leverage exposure denominator of approximately $1.42 trillion and $1.47 trillion, for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively.

^18^ 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 $149 million and $205 million for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Definition of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
(a) The Firm prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements using accounting principles generally<br> 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<br> 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<br> 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<br> 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,<br> 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<br> 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<br> 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<br> addition to the following notes, please also refer to the Firm's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (2022 Form 10-K).
(b) The following are considered non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for<br> analysts, investors and other stakeholders to allow comparability of operating performance and capital adequacy. These measures are calculated as follows:
- The return on average tangible common equity represents annualized earnings applicable to Morgan<br> Stanley common shareholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity.
- Segment return on average common equity and return on average tangible common equity represent<br> full year net income or annualized net income for the quarter applicable to Morgan Stanley for each segment, less preferred dividend segment allocation, divided by average common equity and average tangible<br> common equity for each respective segment.  The segment adjustments to common equity to derive segment average tangible common equity are generally set at the beginning of the year, and will remain fixed<br> throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition).
- Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of<br> certain mortgage servicing rights deduction.
- Tangible book value per common share represents tangible common equity divided by period end<br> common shares outstanding.
- Net revenues excluding DCP represents net revenues adjusted for the impact of mark-to-market gains/losses on economic hedges associated with certain employee<br> deferred cash-based compensation plans.
- Compensation expense excluding DCP represents compensation adjusted for the impact related to certain deferred cash-based compensation plans linked to<br> investment performance.

Definitions of Performance<br> Metrics and Terms
Our earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and<br> 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,<br> our financial condition and operating results.
Page 1:
(a) Provision for credit losses represents the provision for credit losses on loans held for investment and unfunded<br> lending commitments.
(b) Net income applicable to Morgan Stanley represents net income, less net income applicable to nonredeemable<br> noncontrolling interests.
(c) Earnings applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders represents net income applicable to Morgan Stanley, less<br> preferred dividends.
Page 2:
(a) The return on average common equity represents annualized earnings applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders as<br> a percentage of average common equity.

(a) The Firm's attribution of average common equity to the business segments is based on the Required Capital framework, an<br> internal capital adequacy measure. This framework is a risk-based and leverage-based capital measure, which is compared with the Firm's regulatory capital to ensure that the Firm maintains an amount of going<br> concern capital after absorbing potential losses from stress events, where applicable, at a point in time. The Required Capital Framework is based on the Firm's regulatory capital requirements. The Firm defines<br> the difference between its total average common equity and the sum of the average common equity amounts allocated to its business segments as Parent common equity. The amount of capital allocated to the business<br> 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<br> Firm continues to evaluate its required capital framework with respect to the impact of evolving regulatory requirements, as appropriate. For further discussion of the framework, refer to "Management’s Discussion<br> and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm’s 2022 Form 10‐K.
(b) The Firm's risk‐based capital ratios are computed under each of the (i) standardized approaches for calculating credit<br> 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”).<br> 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<br> – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the Firm’s 2022 Form 10‐K.

Supplemental Quantitative Details and Calculations

(1) The following sets forth the net revenue impact of mark-to-market gains and losses on investments<br> associated with DCP and compensation expense impact related to DCP:
1Q23 4Q22 1Q22
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Net revenues $ 14,517 $ 12,749 $ 14,801
Adjustment for mark-to-market on DCP (153 ) (194 ) 441
Adjusted Net revenues - non-GAAP $ 14,364 $ 12,555 $ 15,242
Compensation expense $ 6,410 $ 5,615 $ 6,274
Adjustment for mark-to-market on DCP (193 ) (189 ) 288
Adjusted Compensation expense - non-GAAP $ 6,217 $ 5,426 $ 6,562
- Compensation expense for deferred cash-based compensation awards is calculated based<br> on the notional value of the award granted, adjusted for changes in the fair value of the referenced investments that employees select. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period<br> relevant to each separately vesting portion of deferred awards.
--- ---
- The Firm invests directly, as a principal, in financial instruments and other<br> investments to economically hedge certain of its obligations under these deferred cash-based compensation plans. Changes in the fair value of such investments, net of financing costs, are recorded<br> in Net revenues, and included in Transactional revenues in the Wealth Management business segment. Although changes in compensation expense resulting from changes in the fair value of the referenced<br> investments will generally be offset by changes in the fair value of investments recognized in net revenues, there is typically a timing difference between the immediate recognition of gains and<br> losses on the Firm’s investments and the deferred recognition of the related compensation expense over the vesting period.  While this timing difference may not be material to Income before<br> provision for income taxes for the Firm in any individual period, it may impact the Wealth Management business segment reported ratios and operating metrics in certain periods due to potentially<br> significant impacts to net revenues and compensation expenses.
