NEW YORK, July 21, 2011 – Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) today reported net revenues of $9.3 billion for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared with $8.0 billion a year ago.  Results for the current quarter included positive revenue of $244 million compared with positive revenue of $750 million a year ago related to changes in Morgan Stanley’s debt-related credit spreads (Debt Valuation Adjustment, DVA).1, 2  For the current quarter, income from continuing operations applicable to Morgan Stanley was $1.2 billion compared with $1.4 billion in the prior year quarter.  The earnings per share calculation for the current quarter included a negative adjustment of approximately $1.7 billion, or $1.02 per diluted share, related to the previously announced conversion of the Firm’s Series B Preferred Stock, held by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (MUFG), into common stock.  After considering this negative adjustment, the Firm reported a loss of $0.38 per diluted share,3 from continuing operations applicable to Morgan Stanley for the current quarter compared with income of $0.80 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago.

The Firm’s current quarter compensation to net revenue ratio was 50% with compensation expense of $4.7 billion reflecting an increase in net revenues from a year ago.4  Non-compensation expenses of $2.7 billion reflected higher levels of business activity and the initial costs associated with the previously announced Chinese securities joint venture with Huaxin Securities Co. Ltd.

For the current quarter, the net loss applicable to Morgan Stanley, including discontinued operations, was $0.38 per diluted share, compared with net income of $1.09 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2010.

 
Business Highlights
 
Investment Banking revenues were $1.5 billion – the highest second-quarter revenues since 2007 – reflecting an increase in both advisory and underwriting market volume from a year ago.  The Firm ranked #1 in global completed M&A, #2 in global announced M&A, #2 in global IPOs and #4 in global Equity,5 and arranged virtually all the major technology IPOs of the quarter.

Equity sales and trading net revenues were $1.9 billion – the highest since 2008 – and reflected market share gains.
 
Fixed income and commodities net revenues were $2.1 billion reflecting a solid performance in challenging markets.
 
Global Wealth Management Group delivered net revenues of $3.5 billion, with client assets of $1.7 trillion and 17,638 global representatives.  Net new assets for the quarter were $2.9 billion with net flows in fee-based accounts of $9.7 billion.  Net revenues and annualized revenue per global representative were the highest since the inception of the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney joint venture (MSSB).
 
Asset Management reported net revenues of $645 million and positive net flows of $15.7 billion.
 
Morgan Stanley and Huaxin Securities Co. Ltd. launched their previously announced joint venture, Morgan Stanley Huaxin Securities, expanding the Firm’s foothold in China.
 
 
James P. Gorman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "While global markets remained challenging this quarter, the Firm delivered higher year-over-year revenues across our three major business segments.  Within Institutional Securities, our premier investment-banking franchise ranked #1 in global completed M&A during the quarter and had the highest second-quarter revenues since 2007.  Equities achieved further client gains as revenues rose despite a fall in overall market volumes, while Fixed Income showed continued progress and Wealth Management delivered its highest revenues and FA productivity since the MSSB joint venture was formed and had positive flows, as did Asset Management.  With respect to costs, our re-engineering initiative and additional expense management efforts underscore our focus to ensure that shareholders benefit from our progress.  We also completed the previously announced preferred stock conversion with MUFG, resulting in a one-time, non-cash charge this quarter but removing a significant yearly dividend payment and boosting the Firm’s Tier 1 common ratio to an industry-leading level.  With this additional capital cushion and the clear momentum across our main businesses, we are well positioned to help our clients navigate the constantly changing markets and create additional value for our shareholders."

CAPITAL

As previously announced, on June 30, 2011 MUFG exchanged all of its shares of Series B Non-Cumulative Non-Voting Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock into Morgan Stanley common stock.  MUFG received approximately 385 million shares of the Firm’s common stock, including approximately 75 million shares resulting from the adjustment to the conversion ratio pursuant to the transaction agreement.  As a result of the adjustment to the conversion ratio, the Firm incurred a one-time, non-cash negative adjustment of approximately $1.7 billion in its calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six month periods ending on June 30, 2011.  This negative adjustment, which was recorded in retained earnings, did not affect Morgan Stanley’s period end common equity as of June 30, 2011 because it was entirely offset by an increase in common stock and paid-in capital.  As a result of the conversion, MUFG did not receive the previously declared dividend that would otherwise have been payable on July 15, 2011 in respect of the Series B Preferred Stock.

Morgan Stanley’s Tier 1 capital ratio, under Basel I, was approximately 16.8% and Tier 1 common ratio was approximately 14.6% at June 30, 2011.  The Firm’s Tier 1 common ratio increased 290 basis points during the current quarter. Approximately 270 basis points of this increase was a result of the MUFG transaction.6, 9
 
At June 30, 2011, book value and tangible book value per common share were $30.17 and $26.61, respectively, based on 1.9 billion shares outstanding.  Book value and tangible book value per common share were reduced by approximately $2.29 and $1.41, respectively, due to the increase in period end common shares outstanding resulting from the MUFG preferred stock conversion.


OTHER MATTERS

The effective tax rate from continuing operations for the current quarter was 27.9%.

Morgan Stanley’s Board of Directors declared on July 19, 2011 a $0.05 quarterly dividend per common share.  The dividend is payable on August 15, 2011 to common shareholders of record on July 29, 2011.

6 Pre-tax margin and Tier 1 common ratios are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers to be useful measures that the Firm and investors use to assess operating performance and capital adequacy.  Pre-tax margin represents income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes, divided by net revenues.  The Tier 1 common ratio equals Tier 1 capital (see note 9) less qualifying perpetual preferred stock and qualifying restricted core capital elements, such as qualifying trust preferred securities and qualifying non controlling interests, adjusted for the portion of goodwill and non-servicing intangible assets associated with MSSB non controlling interests divided by risk-weighted assets.
 
7 Morgan Stanley owns 51% of MSSB, which is consolidated.  The results related to the 49% interest retained by Citigroup Inc. are reported in net income (loss) applicable to non controlling interests on page 9 of Morgan Stanley’s Financial Supplement accompanying this release.
 
8 Results for the second quarter of 2011 and 2010 included pre-tax income of $91 million and a pre-tax loss of $4 million, respectively, related to principal investments held by certain consolidated real estate funds.  The limited partnership interests in these funds are reported in net income (loss) applicable to non controlling interests on page 11 of Morgan Stanley’s Financial Supplement accompanying this release.
 
9 The Firm calculates its Tier 1 capital ratio and risk-weighted assets in accordance with the capital adequacy standards for financial holding companies adopted by the Federal Reserve Board.  These standards are based upon a framework described in the International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards, July 1988, as amended, also referred to as Basel I.  These computations are preliminary estimates as of July 21, 2011 (the date of this release) and could be subject to revision in Morgan Stanley’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
