AMJB auto callable contingent interest notes tied to 3 indices
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., is offering $1,955,000 of Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes linked to the Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 and S&P 500 indices, maturing on May 30, 2028. The notes pay a monthly contingent coupon of $6.25 per $1,000 (a 7.50% per annum rate) only if on a Review Date each index is at or above 80% of its Initial Value; otherwise no interest is paid for that period. Starting May 26, 2026, the notes are automatically called if each index is at or above its Initial Value, returning $1,000 plus that month’s coupon.
At maturity, if not called and each index is at or above 70% of its Initial Value, investors receive $1,000 plus any final contingent interest. If any index closes below 70% of its Initial Value, principal is reduced one-for-one with the decline in the worst-performing index, and investors can lose more than 30% and up to all of their investment. The price to public is $1,000 per note, with selling fees reducing issuer proceeds to about $975.18 per note, and the initial estimated value is $940 per $1,000, reflecting embedded costs and hedging.

Insights
High-yield auto-callable note offering principal-at-risk equity index exposure.
The notes from JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., combine fixed-income and equity-derivative features. Investors receive a contingent coupon of $6.25 per $1,000 each month (a 7.50% annual rate) only when all three indices are at or above 80.00% of their Initial Values. From May 26, 2026, if all indices are at or above their Initial Values on a Review Date, the notes auto-call, repaying principal plus that month’s coupon.
Principal protection is conditional. If held to the May 30, 2028 maturity and any index finishes below 70.00% of its Initial Value, redemption is reduced based on the Least Performing Index Return, so losses can exceed 30.00% and reach 100% in a severe drawdown. The payoff depends on three specific markets: large-cap U.S. stocks (S&P 500), small caps (Russell 2000) and large growth/tech-oriented names and non-U.S. listings (Nasdaq-100), each with its own volatility and cycle.
The economics favor the issuer at inception: the price to public is $1,000 while the estimated value is $940, reflecting selling commissions, hedging costs and internal funding assumptions. Secondary market liquidity relies on JPMS and is not exchange-listed, so exit prices may be meaningfully below the issue price, especially early in the life of the note. Outcomes for investors hinge on multi-year equity index paths, coupon accrual frequency, and whether an early auto-call is triggered on any Review Date after May 26, 2026.
FAQ
What is JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) offering in this 424B2 filing?
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes with a total principal amount of $1,955,000, linked to the Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 and S&P 500 indices and maturing on May 30, 2028. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co..
How do the contingent interest payments work on the AMJB auto callable notes?
For each $1,000 note, investors can receive a $6.25 monthly Contingent Interest Payment, equal to a 7.50% per annum rate, whenever on a Review Date the closing level of each index is at or above 80.00% of its Initial Value. If any index is below its Interest Barrier on a Review Date, no interest is paid for that period.
When can the AMJB notes be automatically called and what do investors receive?
Starting with the Review Date on May 26, 2026, and on subsequent eligible Review Dates, if the closing level of each index is at or above its Initial Value, the notes are automatically called. Investors then receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable Contingent Interest Payment on the corresponding Call Settlement Date, and no further payments are made.
What are the downside risks to principal on JPMorgan’s AMJB structured notes?
If the notes are not called and on the final Review Date any index is below its 70.00% Trigger Value, the maturity payment per $1,000 note is $1,000 + ($1,000 × Least Performing Index Return). This means investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline of the worst-performing index from its Initial Value, and can lose more than 30% and up to the entire principal.
Why is the estimated value of the AMJB notes lower than the $1,000 price to public?
The estimated value at pricing is $940.00 per $1,000 note, below the issue price, because it excludes selling commissions, projected hedging profits and hedging costs that are embedded in the $1,000 price. It is calculated using JPMorgan’s internal funding rate and derivative pricing models, and does not represent a guaranteed secondary market value.
Are the AMJB auto callable notes liquid and will they be listed on an exchange?
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Liquidity depends on the price, if any, at which J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is willing to buy the notes in the secondary market. The issuer warns that investors may be unable to sell the notes and that secondary prices will likely be below the original issue price.
What key index levels define the barriers for the AMJB notes?
The Interest Barrier for each index is 80.00% of its Initial Value, and the Trigger Value is 70.00% of its Initial Value. For example, the Nasdaq-100 has an Initial Value of 24,873.85, the Russell 2000 of 2,414.283, and the S&P 500 of 6,705.12, measured on November 24, 2025.
