NEWS RELEASE: IMMEDIATE                                         January 19, 1999


J.P. MORGAN REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND 1998 FULL-YEAR RESULTS

J.P. Morgan today reported fourth quarter operating earnings of $175 million,
before an after-tax charge of $86 million related to expense management
initiatives. Net income after the charge was $89 million, compared with $271
million in the fourth quarter of 1997. Earnings per share in the quarter were
$0.86, or $0.42 including the charge.

Full-year 1998 operating earnings before non-recurring gains and charges were
$1.065 billion, or $5.22 per share. Net income was $963 million, or $4.71 per
share. This compares to $1.465 billion, or $7.17 per share in 1997.


OTHER HIGHLIGHTS FOR 1998:

- -     Revenues excluding non-recurring gains decreased 6%. Lower results in
      emerging markets, proprietary, and credit-related activities offset growth
      in other major business areas

- -     Advisory and underwriting revenues rose 20% to $1.291 billion,
      underscoring our momentum in investment banking

- -     We made significant progress on credit initiatives: Latin American and
      Asian exposures were 40% and 50% lower than at year-end 1997, and the
      economic capital requirement of our credit portfolio was down 17%

- -     Expenses excluding special charges rose 2% over 1997

- -     Assets under management increased 20% to $308 billion across distribution
      channels


 "The market crisis in the second half hurt the year's results," said Douglas A.
Warner III, chairman. "We nevertheless saw solid advances in investment banking,
equities, and asset management, a recovery of markets activities at the end of
the year, and progress on credit and productivity initiatives, all of which are
key to achieving performance gains."

REVENUES BY BUSINESS SECTOR

Growth from client-focused activities in 1998 offset by lower proprietary
results

REVENUES of $1.504 billion in the fourth quarter of 1998 were up 21% from the
third quarter (excluding a non-recurring gain) but were 10% below the 1997
fourth quarter. For the full year, revenues excluding non-recurring gains were
$6.768 billion, down 6% from $7.220 billion in 1997. Both declines principally
were due to lower revenues from our proprietary activities and actions taken as
part of changes in our credit strategy.

Revenues from client-focused activities rebounded in the latter part of the
fourth quarter. Reported in the Finance and Advisory, Market Making, and Asset
Management and Servicing sectors, these activities had revenues of $1.465
billion, compared with $1.328 billion in last year's quarter and $1.109 billion
in the third quarter. For all of 1998, revenues from these activities were
$6.412 billion, up 6% from 1997.

Revenues from Equity Investments and Proprietary Investing and Trading
activities were $214 million in the 1998 fourth quarter, versus $399 million in
the year-ago period and $278 million in the third quarter. Full-year revenues
from these activities for our own account were $921 million, down 28% from 1997.

FINANCE AND ADVISORY (Advisory, Debt and Equity Underwriting, and Credit)
revenues were $424 million, compared with $439 million in the fourth quarter of
last year and $413 million in the third quarter. Revenues for the full year
increased 4% to $1.989 billion.

Advisory and underwriting revenues rose to $349 million, their highest quarterly
level ever and 29% ahead of the 1997 fourth quarter. Full-year 1998 revenues
were also a record, increasing 20% to $1.291 billion. These increases were
driven by strong growth in advisory fees and in revenues from debt and equity
underwriting. Securities Data Co. ranked us sixth in U.S. equity lead
underwriting for 1998, up from tenth in 1997. Our market share increased to 5.6%
from 2.9%. Global market share in completed mergers and acquisitions grew to
12.7% from 10.5%.

Revenues from credit activities in the quarter, including a $25 million net
provision for credit losses, were $75 million compared with $168 million in last
year's quarter; full-year revenues fell to $698 million from $844 million in
1997. In both cases, lower revenues resulting from credit loss provisions and
changes in our credit strategy more than offset significantly higher loan
syndication revenues.

MARKET MAKING (Fixed Income, Emerging Markets, Equities, Foreign Exchange, and
Commodities) revenues totaled $638 million in the fourth quarter, compared with
$453 million in the fourth quarter of 1997 and $260 million in the third
quarter. Full-year revenues grew 9% to $2.737 billion.

Fixed income revenues reached $377 million in the fourth quarter, compared with
$228 million in the 1997 quarter. The increase was due to favorable trading
results in government and agency securities, corporate securities, and
derivatives. Emerging markets had revenues of $51 million compared with $122
million in the 1997 quarter, principally reflecting illiquidity and reduced
client flows in international debt markets. Equities market making revenues in
the fourth quarter were $133 million on strength in cash markets and
derivatives.

This compared to a loss of $54 million in the fourth quarter of 1997 related to
managing equity derivative positions. Foreign exchange revenues of $82 million
in the fourth quarter of 1998 were down from a strong 1997 quarter.

ASSET MANAGEMENT AND SERVICING (Institutional Investment Management and Mutual
Funds, Services for Private Clients, and Securities and Futures Services)
revenues were $403 million in the fourth quarter, compared with $436 million in
both the year-ago quarter and the third quarter. 1998 full-year revenues
increased 5% to $1.686 billion.

Revenues from asset management for 1998, excluding the effect of our investment
in American Century, increased 7% over 1997, driven by 11% growth in investment
management fees. Including the impact of American Century, revenues increased to
$1.063 billion in 1998 from $1.035 billion in 1997. Fourth quarter revenues were
$265 million compared with $277 million in the 1997 quarter. Assets under
management approximated $308 billion at December 31, 1998, an increase of 20%
over December 31, 1997.

Revenues from private client services across our business sectors were
approximately $670 million in 1998, an increase of 10% over 1997. This included
$185 million of revenues recorded in other sectors.

Revenues from securities and futures services for the full year increased 8% to
$623 million. In the fourth quarter these revenues were $138 million, versus
$159 million in the fourth quarter of 1997. Stronger results in futures and
options were more than offset by declines in other revenues in the sector and
the sale of our global trust and agency business in June of 1998.

EQUITY INVESTMENTS (Equity Investment Portfolio Management) reported revenues of
$46 million in the fourth quarter. This compares with strong revenues of $164
million and $157 million in the fourth quarter of 1997 and the third quarter of
this year, respectively. Total return - reported revenues and the change in net
unrealized appreciation - was $50 million, compared with $11 million in the 1997
period. For the full year, revenues decreased to $336 million from $403 million,
and included net gains on investments of $316 million.

PROPRIETARY INVESTING AND TRADING (Risk Positioning, Credit Investment
Portfolio, and Capital and Liquidity Management) revenues were $168 million in
the 1998 fourth quarter, compared with $235 million a year ago and up from $121
million in the third quarter. Total return - reported revenues and the change in
net unrealized appreciation - was negative $13 million, compared with $22
million in the 1997 quarter. Total 1998 revenues were $585 million, versus $868
million in 1997.

CORPORATE ITEMS (revenues not allocated to business sectors, intercompany
eliminations, equity in earnings of certain affiliates, taxable-equivalent
adjustments, and the results of sold or discontinued businesses) revenues
decreased by $295 million in 1998. The decrease includes approximately $176
million in lower results from hedges of anticipated revenues and expenses in
foreign currencies. The results of these hedges are partially offset by the
impact of exchange rate movements on business sector revenues and expenses.

OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses in 1998 up 2%

Operating expenses were $1.391 billion in the fourth quarter, including a
special charge of $143 million ($86 million after tax) in connection with
previously reported cost reduction programs that are part of our productivity
initiatives. Excluding the charge, total operating expenses increased by 14%
from the third quarter, in line with revenues, driven by higher compensation
accruals. Compared with the fourth quarter of 1997, operating expenses decreased
5%. Costs to prepare for the Year 2000 and European Economic and Monetary Union
(EMU) were $50 million in the quarter, versus $52 million a year ago.

The charge includes $101 million in severance-related expenses in connection
with staff reductions of approximately 800 and $42 million in real estate costs
as a result of consolidation in several European locations. Savings associated
with the initiatives taken during the quarter are estimated to be $160 million
annually, and will help achieve our previously disclosed target of a $400
million reduction in core expenses in 1999.

For the full year 1998, operating expenses excluding special charges of $358
million were $5.180 billion, an increase of 2% over 1997. Year 2000 and
EMU-related expenses were $205 million in 1998 and $96 million in 1997.


CREDIT DEVELOPMENTS

$260 million in revenue reductions for 1998 related to our credit strategy

As previously reported, in 1998 we began to transform our credit business by
helping clients access credit efficiently in the capital markets while reducing
the capital employed in the business. As a result of this new strategy and the
reduction of credit exposures in the emerging markets, firmwide revenues in 1998
were reduced by approximately $260 million. The total includes approximately
$195 million in losses on the sale of loans and investment securities, primarily
in Asia, and approximately $65 million in fees and hedging costs to reduce the
credit risk in our portfolio. In addition, charge-offs related to emerging
market loan sales during 1998 were approximately $100 million. Emerging market
exposures in Asia (excluding Japan) and Latin America were reduced by
approximately 50% and 40%, respectively, in 1998.

The combination of these actions and net roll-offs of credit extensions reduced
risk-adjusted assets by approximately $7 billion between 1997 and 1998, and
reduced the economic capital requirements of our credit portfolio by
approximately 17%.

Net provision for credit losses of $25 million in the fourth quarter

We recorded a net provision for credit losses of $25 million in the quarter,
bringing our allowances for credit losses for traditional credit products to
$595 million. These allowances consist of an allowance against loans of $470
million and an allowance of $125 million, included in other liabilities, against
off-balance sheet instruments such as commitments, standby letters of credit,
and guarantees. By comparison, the allowances for
<PAGE>   5
J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated         5


traditional credit products were $589 million ($404 million against loans and
$185 million against other liabilities) at the end of the third quarter.

These allowances for credit losses from traditional credit products exclude the
credit reserve for nonperforming derivatives, which is included in trading
account assets, of $321 million at December 31, 1998, and $325 million at
September 30, 1998. This reserve was previously categorized as the trading
allowance.

Provisions related to loans and off-balance sheet instruments are reflected in
net interest revenue and other revenue, respectively. Changes in the credit
reserve for nonperforming derivatives are reflected in trading revenue. Net
charge-offs in the quarter related to traditional credit products were $19
million and primarily related to exposures in emerging Asia.

Nonperforming loans at December 31, 1998, were $122 million, versus $60 million
at September 30, 1998; the increase primarily related to one counterparty in the
United States. Other nonperforming assets, primarily swaps with certain Asian
counterparties, were essentially unchanged at $535 million. Total nonperforming
assets at December 31, 1998, were $657 million, compared with $593 million at
September 30, 1998.


MARKET RISK DEVELOPMENTS

Reductions in the size of trading positions as well as declining market
volatilities over the fourth quarter led to a downward trend in risk levels
within most trading businesses. Daily earnings at risk (DEaR) in our trading
activities decreased nearly 20% to $35 million at December 31, 1998, from $43
million at September 30. Actual trading volatilities exceeded the DEaR estimates
during the quarter, largely the result of extreme volatilities in October. The
DEaR for our investment portfolio, which consists largely of U.S. government
agency bonds, was $72 million, up from $39 million at September 30. This
increase is entirely due to the extraordinary short-term increase in market
volatilities, which more than offset reductions in the size and underlying risk
in the portfolio.

For 1998, trading DEaR for the firm averaged $38 million, up from the 1997
average of $23 million. The increase reflects the growth of our market
businesses as well as the extraordinarily high volatilities - particularly in
the August to October period. For the year as a whole, our actual trading
volatility was higher than our DEaR estimates.


CAPITAL

At December 31, 1998, under the Federal Reserve Board market risk capital
guidelines for calculation of risk-based capital ratios, J.P. Morgan's estimated
tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios were 8.0% and 11.6% respectively; the
estimated leverage ratio was 3.9%. At September 30, 1998, J.P. Morgan's tier 1
and total risk-based capital ratios were 7.6% and 11.2%, respectively, and the
leverage ratio was 4.0%.

At December 31, 1998, stockholders' equity included $147 million of net
unrealized appreciation on debt investment and marketable equity investment
securities, net of the related tax liability of $87 million. This compares with
$292 million of net unrealized appreciation at September 30, 1998, net of the
related tax liability
<PAGE>   6
J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated         6


of $202 million. The net unrealized appreciation on debt investment securities
was $125 million and $410 million at December 31, 1998, and September 30, 1998,
respectively. The decline primarily related to decreases in the value of U.S.
government and agency securities. The net unrealized appreciation on marketable
equity investment securities was $109 million at December 31, 1998, and $84
million at September 30, 1998.

As previously reported, the Board of Directors of J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated
increased the regular quarterly dividend to $0.99 per share from $0.95 per share
on the company's common stock for the quarter ending December 31, 1998. The
Board also approved the purchase of up to $750 million of J.P. Morgan common
stock, subject to market conditions and other factors. These purchases may be
made periodically in 1999 or beyond in the open market or through privately
negotiated transactions.

During 1998, the firm purchased $755 million of its common stock or
approximately 6.6 million shares in total. These purchases were part of the
December 1997 authorization to repurchase 7 million shares to lessen the
dilutive impact of the firm's employee benefit plans on earnings per share.

(a) Prior to July 1, 1998, changes, excluding charge-offs and recoveries, across
balance sheet allowance captions, which included a reserve for trading assets
(derivatives), loans and off-balance sheet financial instruments such as
commitments, standby letters of credit and guarantees, were shown as
reclassifications. Reclassifications had no impact on net income, and
accordingly, were not shown on the income statement. Subsequent to July 1, 1998,
reclassifications across balance sheet captions for allowances are reflected as
provisions and reversals of provisions in the consolidated statement of income.

(b) The third quarter consolidated net provision for credit losses of $75
million has been reclassified to conform to current presentation as follows: $25
million included in net interest revenue related to loans and $50 million
included in trading revenue related to changes in the credit reserve for
nonperforming derivatives.

(c) Fourth quarter 1998 includes a negative provision of $60 million related to
a decrease in our allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet financial
instruments.

(d) Third quarter 1998 includes a pretax gain of $56 million ($34 million after
tax) related to the sale of the firm's investment management business in
Australia.

(e) Fourth quarter 1998 includes a pretax charge of $143 million ($86 million
after tax) related to cost reduction programs which was recorded as follows:
$101 million in Employee compensation and benefits, related to severance and $42
million in Net occupancy, related to real estate write-offs.

(a) Prior to July 1, 1998, changes, excluding charge-offs and recoveries, across
balance sheet allowance captions, which included a reserve for trading assets
(derivatives), loans and off-balance sheet financial instruments such as
commitments, standby letters of credit and guarantees, were shown as
reclassifications. Reclassifications had no impact on net income, and
accordingly, were not shown on the income statement. Subsequent to July 1, 1998,
reclassifications across balance sheet captions for allowances are reflected as
provisions and reversals of provisions in the consolidated statement of income.

(b) The third quarter consolidated net provision for credit losses of $75
million has been reclassified to conform to current presentation as follows: $25
million included in net interest revenue related to loans and $50 million
included in trading revenue related to changes in the credit reserve for
nonperforming derivatives. Other revenue also includes a negative provision of
$60 million in the fourth quarter related to a decrease in our allowance for
credit losses for off-balance sheet financial instruments.

(c) Twelve months ended December 31, 1998 includes a third quarter pretax gain
of $56 million ($34 million after tax) related to the sale of the firm's
investment management business in Australia and a second quarter pretax gain of
$131 million ($79 million after tax) related to the sale of the firm's global
trust and agency services business.

(d) Twelve months ended December 31, 1998 includes charges in the first and
fourth quarters totaling $358 million ($215 million after tax) related to the
restructuring of business activities and other cost reduction programs. The
charges were recorded as follows: $241 million in Employee compensation and
benefits, related to severance; $112 million in Net occupancy, related to real
estate write-offs; and $5 million in Technology and communications, related to
equipment write-offs.

We describe the activities of J.P. Morgan using five business sectors. Three of
these sectors - Finance and Advisory, Market Making, and Asset Management and
Servicing - focus on services we provide for clients, including positions taken
to facilitate client transactions. Two sectors comprise proprietary activities
that we conduct exclusively for our own account: Equity Investments and
Proprietary Investing and Trading. The Finance and Advisory sector includes
results of our advisory, debt and equity underwriting, and credit activities.
The Market Making sector includes results of our fixed income, emerging markets,
equities, foreign exchange, and commodities activities. The Asset Management and
Servicing sector includes results of our institutional investment management and
mutual funds, services for private clients, and securities and futures services.
Corporate Items includes revenues and expenses that have not been allocated to
business sectors, intercompany eliminations, equity in earnings of certain
affiliates, taxable-equivalent adjustment, and results of certain discontinued
businesses. For a complete description of our business sectors, please refer to
the J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated 1997 Annual report.

METHODOLOGY:
The firm's management reporting system and policies were used to determine the
revenues and expenses directly attributable to each business sector. Earnings on
stockholders' equity were allocated based on management's assessment of the
inherent risk of the components of each sector. In addition, certain overhead
expenses not allocated for management reporting purposes were allocated to each
business sector. Overhead expenses were allocated based primarily on staff
levels and represent costs associated with various support functions that exist
for the benefit of the firm as a whole.

(a) Prior to July 1, 1998, changes, excluding charge-offs and recoveries, across
balance sheet allowance captions, which included a reserve for trading assets
(derivatives), loans and off-balance sheet financial instruments such as
commitments, standby letters of credit and guarantees, were shown as
reclassifications. Subsequent to July 1, 1998, reclassifications across balance
sheet captions for allowances are reflected as provisions and reversals of
provisions in the consolidated statement of income.

EMERGING MARKET CREDIT EXPOSURES
J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated
(preliminary)


The following tables present exposures to certain emerging markets based upon
management's view of total exposure as of December 31, 1998.

The management view includes the following cross-border and local exposures: the
notional or contract value of loans, commitments to extend credit, securities
purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks; the
fair values of trading account assets (cash securities and derivatives,
excluding any collateral we may be holding to offset these exposures) and
investment securities; and other monetary assets. It also includes the impact of
credit derivatives, at their notional or contract value, where we have bought or
sold credit protection outside of the respective country. Trading assets reflect
the net of long and short positions of the same issuer. Management's view
differs from bank regulatory rules, which are established by the Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), because of its treatment of
credit derivatives, trading account short positions, and the use of fair value
versus cost of investment securities. In addition, management does not net local
funding or liabilities against any local exposures as allowed by the FFIEC.
