Insights
Auto-callable, high-coupon note with significant downside tied to the least performing underlying.
The notes pay an upfront coupon stream equal to 20.00% per annum and can be automatically called starting on August 18, 2026, returning principal plus the then-applicable Interest Payment if all Reference Stocks meet or exceed their Initial Values on a Review Date. The structure substitutes potential equity upside for a fixed high coupon and bases downside exposure solely on the least performing Reference Stock.
Key dependencies include the closing prices of AVGO ($333.51), LLY ($1,020.56) and MU ($420.95) on the specified Review Dates and the 50.00% Trigger Value. Secondary market liquidity and note valuation are tied to the issuer’s internal funding rate and JPMS repurchase parameters; timing of any repurchases is not guaranteed.
Tax treatment is complex: notes are intended to be reported as a Put plus Deposit unit.
Issuer expects to treat each note as a cash-settled Put Option plus a $1,000 Deposit for U.S. federal income tax reporting, allocating a portion of each Interest Payment as interest (approximately 5.09% per annum of the Deposit) and the remainder as Put Premium. Purchasers agree to this allocation in the absence of contrary guidance.
Section 871(m) analysis is discussed and the issuer expects it not to apply to Non-U.S. Holders under certain determinations; however, the IRS could reach a different conclusion. Consult a tax adviser for individual treatment.
