Insights
Product offers high contingent coupon but principal risk tied to worst-performing futures index.
The notes pay contingent quarterly coupons equal to at least 3.3125% per quarter if both indices close at or above 70.00% of their Initial Values on a Review Date; otherwise no coupon is paid for that period. Early redemption may occur on specified Interest Payment Dates starting March 25, 2027.
The maturity payoff exposes investors to the Lesser Performing Index Return with a 60.00% Trigger protecting only above that level; if the Lesser Performing Index Return is negative and below the Trigger, investors can lose more than 40.00% of principal and possibly all principal.
U.S. federal tax treatment is uncertain; issuer treats notes as prepaid forwards with contingent coupons.
The issuer intends to treat the notes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons, with Contingent Interest Payments characterized as ordinary income. This view is based on counsel advice but alternative IRS treatments may materially affect timing and character of income.
Withholding for Non-U.S. Holders may apply; Section 871(m) determinations are issuer-based and not binding on the IRS. Consult a tax adviser for individual consequences.
