结论摘要
MS 3Q26 EPS 3.03美元、营收203亿美元均超预期,股票交易+41%、财富净流入2320亿,但市场当日以-2.75%回应、盘后持平,利好已被消化且被拒绝;信息在常规交易时段充分交易,现在(盘后)追多无edge,做空又无实质利空,故不做。
消息传播链
- 节点
- 节点
关键理由
- EPS 3.03美元超预期(预期约2.83-2.90)、股票业务同比+41%、财富管理创纪录构成名义利好
- 但该利好已于10/14盘前至收盘的完整交易时段被市场拒绝(收跌2.75%),剩余edge不足
主要风险
- 超半数财富新增净资产来自IPO相关一次性流入,环比营收-5%、费用率升至67%,市场或担忧增长质量与4Q放缓
- 股价13周持续下行(20日-10%、距52周高-21%),弱势趋势中利好不涨是逆风,反弹可能仅是技术性修复

先例如何影响了这次决策
对本次决策的影响:未因先例产生交易;当日-2.75%的实际拒绝成为AVOID的核心依据
方向:未构建面板:本案为单一超大市值银行的财报beat-but-drop,结论已由当日真实价格反应直接给出,无需用历史同类涨幅校准幅度
涨幅量级:无可信高相似对齐先例用于定tp/sl;且不拟开仓,幅度参考无必要
形态:大盘银行股财报常见sell-the-news,当前事件本身即呈现beat但收跌、盘后不修复的见光模式

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

This earnings release may contain forward-looking statements, including the attainment of certain financial and other targets, objectives and goals. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made, which reflect management’s current estimates, projections, expectations, assumptions, interpretations or beliefs and which are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. For a discussion of risks and uncertainties that may affect the future results of the Firm, please see “Forward-Looking Statements” preceding Part I, Item 1, “Competition” and “Supervision and Regulation” in Part I, Item 1, “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, “Legal Proceedings” in Part I, Item 3, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk” in Part II, Item 7A in the Firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other items throughout the Form 10-K, the Firm’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the Firm’s Current Reports on Form 8-K, including any amendments thereto.

Includes preferred dividends related to the calculation of earnings per share for the third quarter of 2026 and 2025 of approximately $158 million and $160 million, respectively.

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
Pre-tax income represents income before provision for income taxes.
5
The expense efficiency ratio represents total non-interest expenses as a percentage of net revenues.
6
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. Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction. The calculation of return on average tangible common equity, also a non-GAAP financial measure, represents full year or annualized net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average tangible common equity. The calculation of tangible book value per common share, also a non-GAAP financial measure, represents tangible common shareholder’s equity divided by common shares outstanding.
7
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.
8
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.
9
Wealth Management net new assets represent client asset inflows, including interest, dividends and asset acquisitions, less client asset outflows, and exclude the impact of business combinations/divestitures and the impact of fees and commissions.
10
AUM is defined as assets under management or supervision.
11
Long-term net flows include the Equity, Fixed Income and Alternative and Solutions asset classes and excludes the Liquidity and Overlay Services asset class. During the first quarter of 2026, certain changes were made to the presentation of Investment Management AUM classifications and Net Flows. These changes had no impact on Total AUM and were made to more closely align reporting with underlying investment strategies and to conform reporting of Net Flows, excluding distributions, which for long-term products were $3 billion and $2 billion for the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, with the relevant presentations in our SEC Forms 10-K and 10-Q. For additional information, please refer to the Addendums in the Firm’s first quarter 2026 financial supplement and in "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Investment Management" in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 available online in the Investor Relations section at
www.morganstanley.com
.
12
During the first quarter of 2026, as a result of a March workforce management action, we recognized severance costs of $178 million in Compensation and benefits expense. The workforce management action was related to an effort to improve operational efficiency and manage performance, rather than a change in strategy or exit of businesses. The action occurred across our business segments and geographic regions and impacted approximately 2% of our global workforce at that time. We recorded severance costs of $94 million in the Institutional Securities business segment, $61 million in the Wealth Management business segment, and $23 million in the Investment Management business segment. These costs were incurred across all regions, with the majority in the Americas.

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, 2025.
14
Pre-tax margin represents income before provision for income taxes divided by net revenues.
15
“DCP” refers to certain employee deferred cash-based compensation programs. Please refer to "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Other Matters – Deferred Cash-Based Compensation” in the Firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, hedges for Wealth Management DCP awards were primarily transitioned to derivative instruments with changes in fair value recorded in compensation expense or in other comprehensive income within shareholder's equity and later reclassified to compensation expense in the same period as the related DCP award vests. As a result, the Firm no longer presents non-GAAP measures of net revenues and compensation expense excluding DCP. Wealth Management net revenues included mark-to-market gains associated with DCP of $206 million in the third quarter of 2025.
16
Wealth Management transactional revenues include investment banking, trading, and commissions and fee revenues.
17
Capital ratios are estimates as of the press release date, October 14, 2026 and are subject to change in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
18
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.
19
The Firm’s supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) utilizes a Tier 1 capital numerator of approximately $98.7 billion and $91.0 billion, and supplementary leverage exposure denominator of approximately $2.04 trillion and $1.66 trillion, for the third quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Notes:
–
In the periods prior to 2026, the Firm presented non-GAAP financial measures to adjust net revenues and compensation expense for mark-to-market gains and losses on deferred cash-based compensation plans (DCP). Firm net revenues excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $17,976 million, 3Q25 YTD: $52,279 million. Firm compensation expenses excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $7,142 million, 3Q25 YTD: $21,484 million.
–
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Firm utilizes derivatives to hedge certain DCP awards and as a result will no longer present non-GAAP financial measures excluding DCP.

Notes:
-
During the first quarter of 2026, the U.S. Bank implemented a reorganization of its operations, merging certain fixed income businesses and acquiring certain legal entities of Morgan Stanley. As the reorganization involved subsidiaries under the common control of the Firm, assets and liabilities were recognized at their carrying values, and historical financial statements of the U.S. Bank will reflect the reorganization as having occurred at the beginning of 2025.

Notes:
-
In the periods prior to 2026, the Firm presented non-GAAP financial measures to adjust net revenues and compensation expense for mark-to-market gains and losses on DCP. Wealth Management net revenues excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $8,028 million, 3Q25 YTD: $22,956 million. Wealth Management compensation expenses excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $4,166 million, 3Q25 YTD: $12,065 million.
-
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Firm utilizes derivatives to hedge certain DCP awards and as a result will no longer present non-GAAP financial measures excluding DCP.

Notes:
-
During the first quarter of 2026, certain changes were made to the presentation of Investment Management AUM classifications and Net Flows. These changes had no impact on Total AUM and were made to more closely align reporting with underlying investment strategies and to conform reporting of Net Flows, excluding distributions, with the relevant presentations in our SEC Forms 10-K and 10-Q. Distributions for Long-term products were: 3Q26: $3 billion, 2Q26: $3 billion, 3Q25: $2 billion, 3Q26 YTD: $9 billion, 3Q25 YTD: $7 billion and distributions for Liquidity and Overlay were: 3Q26: $4 billion, 2Q26: $4 billion, 3Q25: $4 billion, 3Q26 YTD: $11 billion, 3Q25 YTD: $12 billion. For additional information, please refer to the Addendums in the Firm’s first quarter 2026 financial supplement and in "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Investment Management" in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 available online in the Investor Relations section at www.morganstanley.com.

Definition of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
(a)
We prepare our financial statements using U.S. GAAP. From time to time, we may disclose certain “non‐GAAP financial measures” in this document or in the course of our earnings releases, earnings and other conference calls, financial presentations, definitive proxy statements and other public disclosures. A “non‐GAAP financial measure” excludes, or includes, amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We consider the non‐GAAP financial measures we disclose to be useful to us, investors, analysts and other stakeholders by providing further transparency about, or an alternate means of assessing or comparing our financial condition, operating results and 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 U.S. GAAP financial measure and the non‐GAAP financial measure. In the periods prior to 2026, we present certain non‐GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of mark‐to-market gains and losses on DCP investments from net revenues and compensation expenses. The impact of DCP is primarily reflected in our Wealth Management business segment results. These measures allow for better comparability of period‐to‐period underlying operating performance and revenue trends, especially in our Wealth Management business segment. By excluding the impact of these items, we are better able to describe the business drivers and resulting impact to net revenues and corresponding change to the associated compensation expenses. For more information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Executive Summary” in the 2025 Form 10‐K.
(b)
The following are considered non‐GAAP financial measures:
-
Tangible common equity represents common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction. In addition, we believe that certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity, such as return on average tangible common equity (“ROTCE”) and tangible book value per common share, also non‐GAAP financial measures, are useful for evaluating the operating performance and capital adequacy of the business period‐to‐period, respectively.
-
ROTCE represents annualized earnings applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity.
-
Tangible book value per common share represents tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding.
-
Segment return on average common equity and return on average tangible common equity represent net income applicable to Morgan Stanley by segment less preferred dividends allocated to each segment, annualized as a percentage of average common equity and average tangible common equity, respectively, allocated to each segment. The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of each year and remains fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition).
-
Net revenues excluding DCP represents net revenues adjusted for the impact of mark‐to‐market gains and losses on economic hedges associated with certain employee deferred cash‐based compensation plans.
-
Compensation expense excluding DCP represents compensation adjusted for the impact related to certain employee deferred cash‐based compensation plans linked to investment performance.
12
Definitions of Performance Metrics and Terms

Liquidity Resources, which are primarily held within the Parent Company and its major operating subsidiaries, are comprised of high quality liquid assets (HQLA) and cash deposits with banks. The total amount of Liquidity Resources is actively managed by us considering the following components: unsecured debt maturity profile; balance sheet size and composition; funding needs in a stressed environment, inclusive of contingent cash outflows; legal entity, regional and segment liquidity requirements; regulatory requirements; and collateral requirements. Average Liquidity Resources represents the average daily balance for the three months ended September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025.

Page 4:
(a)
Our attribution of average common equity to the business segments is based on the Required Capital framework, an internal capital adequacy measure. This framework is a risk‐based and leverage‐based capital measure, which is compared with our regulatory capital to ensure that we maintain an amount of going concern capital after absorbing potential losses from stress events, where applicable, at a point in time. The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of each year and remains fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition). We define the difference between our total average common equity and the sum of the average common equity amounts allocated to our business segments as Parent Company common equity. The Required Capital framework is based on our regulatory capital requirements. We continue to evaluate our 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 and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the 2025 Form 10‐K.
(b)
Our risk‐based capital ratios are computed under each of (i) the standardized approaches for calculating credit risk and market risk risk‐weighted assets (RWAs) (“Standardized Approach”) and (ii) the applicable advanced approaches for calculating credit risk, market risk and operational risk RWAs (“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 2025 Form 10‐K.

Compensation expense for deferred cash-based compensation plans awards is calculated based 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 relevant to each separately vesting portion of deferred awards.
-
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, hedges for Wealth Management DCP awards were primarily transitioned to derivative instruments. For certain unvested DCP awards, the Firm designates derivatives in cash flow hedges with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income and later reclassified to compensation expense in line with the vesting period of the DCP awards. For other awards, including vested awards, the Firm uses economic hedging derivatives, with changes in fair value recorded in compensation expense. As a result, the Firm will no longer present non-GAAP measures of net revenues and compensation expense excluding DCP.
-
Prior to 2026, we hedged DCP award obligations primarily with cash instruments and recorded the changes in the fair value, net of financing costs, within Transactional revenues in the Wealth Management business segment. Although changes in compensation expense resulting from changes in the fair value of the referenced investments were generally offset by changes in the fair value of investments recognized in net revenues, there was typically a timing difference between the immediate recognition of gains and losses on our investments and the deferred recognition of the related compensation expense over the vesting period.
-
The use of derivatives as cash flow hedges of DCP awards is expected to substantially mitigate timing differences between the recognition of changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments and the deferred recognition of related DCP compensation expense over the vesting period. The expected mitigation of these timing differences, alongside the associated income statement changes described above, enables us to better present the operating performance and revenue trends without the need for non-GAAP financial measures.
-
The tables above for the prior periods present non-GAAP adjusted Net revenues which excludes amounts recognized in Net revenues related to fair value gains and losses, net of financing costs, on investments associated with certain cash-based deferred compensation plans and non-GAAP adjusted Compensation expense for 2025 which excludes amounts recognized in Compensation expense associated with certain cash-based deferred compensation plans.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, as a result of March workforce management actions, were recognized severance costs of $178 million in Compensation and benefits expenses.The workforce management action was related to an effort to improve operational efficiency and manage performance, rather than a change in strategy or exit of businesses. The workforce management action occurred across our business segments and geographic regions and impacted approximately 2% of our global workforce at that time. We recorded severance costs of $94 million in the Institutional Securities business segment, $61 million in the Wealth Management business segment, and $23 million in the Investment Management business segment for the quarters ended March 31, 2026. These costs were incurred across all regions, with the majority in the Americas.

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

.
This earnings release may contain forward-looking statements, including the attainment of certain financial and other targets, objectives and goals. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made, which reflect management’s current estimates, projections, expectations, assumptions, interpretations or beliefs and which are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. For a discussion of risks and uncertainties that may affect the future results of the Firm, please see “Forward-Looking Statements” preceding Part I, Item 1, “Competition” and “Supervision and Regulation” in Part I, Item 1, “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, “Legal Proceedings” in Part I, Item 3, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk” in Part II, Item 7A in the Firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other items throughout the Form 10-K, the Firm’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the Firm’s Current Reports on Form 8-K, including any amendments thereto.

Includes preferred dividends related to the calculation of earnings per share for the third quarter of 2026 and 2025 of approximately $158 million and $160 million, 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
Pre-tax income represents income before provision for income taxes.
5
The expense efficiency ratio represents total non-interest expenses as a percentage of net revenues.
6
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. Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction. The calculation of return on average tangible common equity, also a non-GAAP financial measure, represents full year or annualized net income applicable to Morgan Stanley less preferred dividends as a percentage of average tangible common equity. The calculation of tangible book value per common share, also a non-GAAP financial measure, represents tangible common shareholder’s equity divided by common shares outstanding.
7
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.
8
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.
9
Wealth Management net new assets represent client asset inflows, including interest, dividends and asset acquisitions, less client asset outflows, and exclude the impact of business combinations/divestitures and the impact of fees and commissions.
10
AUM is defined as assets under management or supervision.
11
Long-term net flows include the Equity, Fixed Income and Alternative and Solutions asset classes and excludes the Liquidity and Overlay Services asset class. During the first quarter of 2026, certain changes were made to the presentation of Investment Management AUM classifications and Net Flows. These changes had no impact on Total AUM and were made to more closely align reporting with underlying investment strategies and to conform reporting of Net Flows, excluding distributions, which for long-term products were $3 billion and $2 billion for the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, with the relevant presentations in our SEC Forms 10-K and 10-Q. For additional information, please refer to the Addendums in the Firm’s first quarter 2026 financial supplement and in "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Investment Management" in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 available online in the Investor Relations section at
www.morganstanley.com
.
12
During the first quarter of 2026, as a result of a March workforce management action, we recognized severance costs of $178 million in Compensation and benefits expense. The workforce management action was related to an effort to improve operational efficiency and manage performance, rather than a change in strategy or exit of businesses. The action occurred across our business segments and geographic regions and impacted approximately 2% of our global workforce at that time. We recorded severance costs of $94 million in the Institutional Securities business segment, $61 million in the Wealth Management business segment, and $23 million in the Investment Management business segment. These costs were incurred across all regions, with the majority in the Americas.
13
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
6
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, 2025.
14
Pre-tax margin represents income before provision for income taxes divided by net revenues.
15
“DCP” refers to certain employee deferred cash-based compensation programs. Please refer to "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Other Matters – Deferred Cash-Based Compensation” in the Firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, hedges for Wealth Management DCP awards were primarily transitioned to derivative instruments with changes in fair value recorded in compensation expense or in other comprehensive income within shareholder's equity and later reclassified to compensation expense in the same period as the related DCP award vests. As a result, the Firm no longer presents non-GAAP measures of net revenues and compensation expense excluding DCP. Wealth Management net revenues included mark-to-market gains associated with DCP of $206 million in the third quarter of 2025.
16
Wealth Management transactional revenues include investment banking, trading, and commissions and fee revenues.
17
Capital ratios are estimates as of the press release date, October 14, 2026 and are subject to change in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
18
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.
19
The Firm’s supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) utilizes a Tier 1 capital numerator of approximately $98.7 billion and $91.0 billion, and supplementary leverage exposure denominator of approximately $2.04 trillion and $1.66 trillion, for the third quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Notes:
–
In the periods prior to 2026, the Firm presented non-GAAP financial measures to adjust net revenues and compensation expense for mark-to-market gains and losses on deferred cash-based compensation plans (DCP). Firm net revenues excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $17,976 million, 3Q25 YTD: $52,279 million. Firm compensation expenses excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $7,142 million, 3Q25 YTD: $21,484 million.
–
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Firm utilizes derivatives to hedge certain DCP awards and as a result will no longer present non-GAAP financial measures excluding DCP.

Notes:
-
During the first quarter of 2026, the U.S. Bank implemented a reorganization of its operations, merging certain fixed income businesses and acquiring certain legal entities of Morgan Stanley. As the reorganization involved subsidiaries under the common control of the Firm, assets and liabilities were recognized at their carrying values, and historical financial statements of the U.S. Bank will reflect the reorganization as having occurred at the beginning of 2025.

Notes:
-
In the periods prior to 2026, the Firm presented non-GAAP financial measures to adjust net revenues and compensation expense for mark-to-market gains and losses on DCP. Wealth Management net revenues excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $8,028 million, 3Q25 YTD: $22,956 million. Wealth Management compensation expenses excluding DCP, which represents a non‐GAAP financial measure, were: 3Q25: $4,166 million, 3Q25 YTD: $12,065 million.
-
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Firm utilizes derivatives to hedge certain DCP awards and as a result will no longer present non-GAAP financial measures excluding DCP.

Notes:
-
During the first quarter of 2026, certain changes were made to the presentation of Investment Management AUM classifications and Net Flows. These changes had no impact on Total AUM and were made to more closely align reporting with underlying investment strategies and to conform reporting of Net Flows, excluding distributions, with the relevant presentations in our SEC Forms 10-K and 10-Q. Distributions for Long-term products were: 3Q26: $3 billion, 2Q26: $3 billion, 3Q25: $2 billion, 3Q26 YTD: $9 billion, 3Q25 YTD: $7 billion and distributions for Liquidity and Overlay were: 3Q26: $4 billion, 2Q26: $4 billion, 3Q25: $4 billion, 3Q26 YTD: $11 billion, 3Q25 YTD: $12 billion. For additional information, please refer to the Addendums in the Firm’s first quarter 2026 financial supplement and in "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Investment Management" in the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 available online in the Investor Relations section at www.morganstanley.com.

Definition of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
(a)
We prepare our financial statements using U.S. GAAP. From time to time, we may disclose certain “non‐GAAP financial measures” in this document or in the course of our earnings releases, earnings and other conference calls, financial presentations, definitive proxy statements and other public disclosures. A “non‐GAAP financial measure” excludes, or includes, amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We consider the non‐GAAP financial measures we disclose to be useful to us, investors, analysts and other stakeholders by providing further transparency about, or an alternate means of assessing or comparing our financial condition, operating results and 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 U.S. GAAP financial measure and the non‐GAAP financial measure. In the periods prior to 2026, we present certain non‐GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of mark‐to-market gains and losses on DCP investments from net revenues and compensation expenses. The impact of DCP is primarily reflected in our Wealth Management business segment results. These measures allow for better comparability of period‐to‐period underlying operating performance and revenue trends, especially in our Wealth Management business segment. By excluding the impact of these items, we are better able to describe the business drivers and resulting impact to net revenues and corresponding change to the associated compensation expenses. For more information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Executive Summary” in the 2025 Form 10‐K.
(b)
The following are considered non‐GAAP financial measures:
-
Tangible common equity represents common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction. In addition, we believe that certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity, such as return on average tangible common equity (“ROTCE”) and tangible book value per common share, also non‐GAAP financial measures, are useful for evaluating the operating performance and capital adequacy of the business period‐to‐period, respectively.
-
ROTCE represents annualized earnings applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity.
-
Tangible book value per common share represents tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding.
-
Segment return on average common equity and return on average tangible common equity represent net income applicable to Morgan Stanley by segment less preferred dividends allocated to each segment, annualized as a percentage of average common equity and average tangible common equity, respectively, allocated to each segment. The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of each year and remains fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition).
-
Net revenues excluding DCP represents net revenues adjusted for the impact of mark‐to‐market gains and losses on economic hedges associated with certain employee deferred cash‐based compensation plans.
-
Compensation expense excluding DCP represents compensation adjusted for the impact related to certain employee deferred cash‐based compensation plans linked to investment performance.

Our attribution of average common equity to the business segments is based on the Required Capital framework, an internal capital adequacy measure. This framework is a risk‐based and leverage‐based capital measure, which is compared with our regulatory capital to ensure that we maintain an amount of going concern capital after absorbing potential losses from stress events, where applicable, at a point in time. The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of each year and remains fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition). We define the difference between our total average common equity and the sum of the average common equity amounts allocated to our business segments as Parent Company common equity. The Required Capital framework is based on our regulatory capital requirements. We continue to evaluate our 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 and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Regulatory Requirements" in the 2025 Form 10‐K.

Compensation expense for deferred cash-based compensation plans awards is calculated based 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 relevant to each separately vesting portion of deferred awards.
-
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, hedges for Wealth Management DCP awards were primarily transitioned to derivative instruments. For certain unvested DCP awards, the Firm designates derivatives in cash flow hedges with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income and later reclassified to compensation expense in line with the vesting period of the DCP awards. For other awards, including vested awards, the Firm uses economic hedging derivatives, with changes in fair value recorded in compensation expense. As a result, the Firm will no longer present non-GAAP measures of net revenues and compensation expense excluding DCP.
-
Prior to 2026, we hedged DCP award obligations primarily with cash instruments and recorded the changes in the fair value, net of financing costs, within Transactional revenues in the Wealth Management business segment. Although changes in compensation expense resulting from changes in the fair value of the referenced investments were generally offset by changes in the fair value of investments recognized in net revenues, there was typically a timing difference between the immediate recognition of gains and losses on our investments and the deferred recognition of the related compensation expense over the vesting period.
-
The use of derivatives as cash flow hedges of DCP awards is expected to substantially mitigate timing differences between the recognition of changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments and the deferred recognition of related DCP compensation expense over the vesting period. The expected mitigation of these timing differences, alongside the associated income statement changes described above, enables us to better present the operating performance and revenue trends without the need for non-GAAP financial measures.
-
The tables above for the prior periods present non-GAAP adjusted Net revenues which excludes amounts recognized in Net revenues related to fair value gains and losses, net of financing costs, on investments associated with certain cash-based deferred compensation plans and non-GAAP adjusted Compensation expense for 2025 which excludes amounts recognized in Compensation expense associated with certain cash-based deferred compensation plans.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, as a result of March workforce management actions, were recognized severance costs of $178 million in Compensation and benefits expenses.The workforce management action was related to an effort to improve operational efficiency and manage performance, rather than a change in strategy or exit of businesses.
