The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~January 14, 2027 (estimated)

Morgan Stanley's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 18.0% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of -25.6%. Where it stands out: change in share count of -1.4% ranks 6 of 35 investment banking & brokerage companies we cover.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 12.2% while net income grew 36.6%: a 24pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 18.0% over the last 12 months, against a median of 20.8% for investment banking & brokerage companies we cover.
  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 3.8 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 1.4% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Burning cash. Free cash flow was -25.6% of revenue over the last 12 months.
  • High debt. Long-term debt exceeds cash by $223.0bn, more than 1.5 times annual revenue.
  • Insiders selling. 8 insiders sold $52M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (0% under pre-set trading plans).
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was -99% of net income over the last 12 months.

Moat

72 /100

Strong moat

How hard Morgan Stanley's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 11 / 20

    Net income has been a median 0.9% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Durability 17 / 20

    Net margin has been a median 21.3%; its worst year was 18.5%.

  • Discipline 19 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 10.0% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 2.9% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (77 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.

Forecasts and guidance

Next results: January 14, 2027, before the open. Analysts expect revenue of $20.3bn and EPS of $2.98 (range $2.80 to $3.22) for the quarter.
