Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Exhibit 99.1 is a copy of a slide presentation used by Jamie Dimon, President and Chief Operating Officer of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (“JPMorgan Chase” or the “Firm”) at an analyst conference held June 1, 2005. The slides are being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 and the information contained therein shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section. Furthermore, the information in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Firm under the Securities Act of 1933.

Among the points discussed by Mr. Dimon at the conference included the following about trading results:

  •   Trading results for the second quarter of 2005 as of May 31, 2005 are the worst the Firm has experienced in some time and, absent improvements in performance in June, trading results for the full quarter could be lower than the $842 million reported for the third quarter of 2004. While client-driven trading has remained generally strong to date, market-making and proprietary trading activity has been worse to date across the credit, rates and equities businesses, and generally weaker in Europe than elsewhere.

Home Finance Prime First Mortgage Solid first mortgage business with average origination FICO scores in our held portfolio above 730 and origination LTV's of 71% (prior to any property appreciation). Last year only 4% of our first mortgage originations were I/O and, while that percentage will grow this year (14% through 1Q'05), the credit quality is excellent; to-date in 2005, I/O loan average FICO scores are over 735 with origination LTV's averaging 70%. We have I/O portfolio limits in place and continuously monitor the portfolio and market trends. Home Equity Over one third of our $66 billion in balances are in a first lien position. Our portfolio's average FICO score at booking is above 715, over 730 for originations so far this year, and the average CLTV is 75%. The higher risk segment with FICO scores below 640 and CLTV's of 90% or more is 3.3% of the portfolio. When you look at the 25% in equity at booking, coupled with unused lines, there is almost 40% equity in the portfolio before any price appreciation is considered. We feel we have a solid base of borrowers and a strong equity position in this business. Subprime Mortgage Our subprime mortgage business utilizes granular risk based pricing and we have expanded the product offering very modestly. Most of our competitors in this space are much deeper in the credit spectrum. The higher risk segment with FICO scores below 620 and LTV's of 90% or more is 5.9% of the portfolio. The portfolio is priced for the inherent risk associated with these loans. We have also limited the segments where we allow stated income and have set portfolio limits for the entire subprime business.


 

Home Finance Risk Profile Credit performance continues to be strong with credit losses favorable to comparable levels the previous two years due to improved credit quality and portfolio business decisions. 2004 Home Finance Statistics 1 I/O originations in 2004 of $6 billion with a weighted average FICO of 738 and LTV of 71%.
