___________________________

1 Represents the change in the fair value of certain of Morgan Stanley’s long-term and short-term borrowings resulting from fluctuations in its credit spreads and other credit factors (commonly referred to as “DVA”).

2 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. For these purposes, “GAAP” refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) 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 GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by Morgan Stanley are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for 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 present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference and such comparable GAAP financial measure.

3 Earnings (loss) per diluted share amounts, excluding DVA, are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers useful for investors to allow better comparability of period-to-period operating performance. Such exclusions are provided to differentiate revenues associated with Morgan Stanley borrowings, regardless of whether the impact is either positive, or negative, that result solely from fluctuations in credit spreads and other credit factors. The reconciliation of earnings (loss) per diluted share from continuing operations applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders and average diluted shares from a non-GAAP to GAAP basis is as follows (shares and DVA are presented in millions):

				4Q 2013			4Q 2012			FY 2013			FY 2012
Earnings (loss) per diluted share from cont. ops. – Non-GAAP				$0.20			$0.49			$1.66			$1.64
DVA impact				$(0.13)			$(0.16)			$(0.23)			$(1.62)
Earnings (loss) per diluted share from cont. ops. – GAAP				$0.07			$0.33			$1.43			$0.02
Average diluted shares – Non-GAAP				1,970			1,937			1,957			1,919
DVA impact				0			0			0			0
Average diluted shares – GAAP				1,970			1,937			1,957			1,919

4 The impact to earnings per diluted share from continuing operations is calculated by dividing the after-tax legal expenses and discrete tax benefit, respectively, by the average number of diluted shares outstanding.

6 Includes preferred dividends and other adjustments related to the calculation of earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2013 and 2012 of approximately $48 million and $26 million, respectively.

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 Morgan Stanley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

13 On June 28, 2013, the Firm completed the purchase of the remaining 35% interest in the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture from Citi, increasing the Firm’s interest from 65% to 100%. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, Morgan Stanley completed the purchase of an additional 14% stake in the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Joint Venture from Citi, increasing the Firm’s interest from 51% to 65%. Prior to September 17, 2012, Citi’s results related to its 49% interest were reported in net income (loss) applicable to nonredeemable noncontrolling interests on page 8 of Morgan Stanley’s Financial Supplement accompanying this release.

14 Transactional revenues include investment banking, trading, and commissions and fee revenues.

15 Results for the fourth quarter of 2013 and 2012 included pre-tax income of $46 million and $49 million, respectively, related to investments held by certain consolidated real estate funds. Results for the full year ended 2013 and 2012 included pre-tax income of $181 million and $185 million, respectively, related to investments held by certain consolidated real estate funds. The limited partnership interests in these funds are reported in net income (loss) applicable to noncontrolling interests on page 10 of Morgan Stanley’s Financial Supplement accompanying this release.

16 Results for the current quarter included gains of $48 million compared with gains of $50 million in the prior year fourth quarter related to investments held by certain consolidated real estate funds. Results for the current year included gains of $188 million compared with gains of $192 million in the prior year related to investments held by certain consolidated real estate funds.

17 Noncontrolling interests reported in the Institutional Securities business segment primarily represents the allocation to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG) of Morgan Stanley MUFG Securities Co., Ltd., which the Firm consolidates.

18 In the third quarter of 2012, Wealth Management non-compensation expenses reflected approximately $176 million of non-recurring costs associated with the Morgan Stanley Wealth Management integration and the purchase of the additional 14% stake in the Joint Venture.

19 Carried interest represents an additional allocation of fund income to the Firm, as general partner upon exceeding cumulative fund performance thresholds.

20 The Firm calculates its Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital ratios and risk-weighted assets (“RWAs”) 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. On January 1, 2013, the U.S. banking regulators’ rules to implement the Basel Committee’s market risk capital framework, commonly referred to as “Basel 2.5”, became effective, which increases capital requirements for securitizations and correlation trading within the Firm’s trading book, as well as incorporating add-ons for stressed VaR and incremental risk requirement. The Firm’s Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital ratios and RWAs for the quarters ended December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 were calculated under this revised framework. The Firm’s Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital ratios and RWAs for prior quarters have not been recalculated under this revised framework. In accordance with the Federal Reserve Board’s definition, Tier 1 common capital is defined as Tier 1 capital less non-common elements in Tier 1 capital, including perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, minority interest in subsidiaries, trust preferred securities and mandatory convertible preferred securities. These computations are preliminary estimates as of January 17, 2014 (the date of this release) and could be subject to revision in Morgan Stanley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

21 Tangible common equity and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures that the Firm considers to be useful measures of capital adequacy. 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.

22 For the year ended December 31, 2013, the income tax provision / (benefit) from continuing operations included discrete tax benefits of $407 million consisting of $161 million related to the remeasurement of reserves and related interest based on new information regarding the status of certain tax authority examinations, $92 million related to the establishment of a deferred tax asset associated with the reorganization of certain non-U.S. legal entities, $73 million attributable to tax planning strategies to optimize foreign tax credit utilization in anticipation of the repatriation of earnings from certain non-U.S. subsidiaries and $81 million resulting from a retroactive change in U.S. tax law.
