JPMorgan AMJB barrier notes: 1.6x BCOM upside, 2030 maturity
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is issuing $275,000 of Uncapped Accelerated Barrier Notes linked to the Bloomberg Commodity Index, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Each note has a $1,000 price to the public, with $41.25 in selling commissions and $958.75 in proceeds to the issuer.
The notes run to November 29, 2030 and provide 1.60x leveraged upside if the Index finishes above its Initial Value of 107.5094, with no cap on gains. If the Index is at or above the 70% barrier (75.25658) at maturity, investors receive back principal, but if it finishes below the barrier, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the Index loss, down to zero.
The notes pay no interest and are unsecured obligations subject to the credit risk of both JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. They are not bank deposits or FDIC insured and will not be listed on an exchange, so liquidity may be limited. The estimated value was $929.80 per $1,000 note at pricing, reflecting embedded selling costs and hedging factors.
