JPMorgan Structured Notes (NYSE: AMJB) link 8.15% coupon to index performance
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering callable contingent interest notes linked individually to the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index, the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes pay a monthly Contingent Interest Payment of at least $6.7917 per $1,000 (at least 8.15% per annum) for each Review Date on which every index closes at or above 70% of its Initial Value. If any index is below this Interest Barrier on a Review Date, no interest is paid for that period.
The issuer may redeem the notes early, in whole, on specified Interest Payment Dates starting March 5, 2026, paying $1,000 plus any due contingent interest. If the notes are not redeemed and, on the final Review Date, every index is at or above 60% of its Initial Value, investors receive $1,000 plus any final contingent interest. If any index ends below 60%, the maturity payment is reduced in proportion to the worst index’s loss, and investors can lose more than 40% and up to all principal. The notes are unsecured obligations subject to the credit risk of both JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and the estimated value is currently about $961.10 per $1,000, with a minimum final estimated value of $900.

FAQ
What are the JPMorgan AMJB Callable Contingent Interest Notes offering?
The notes offer potential monthly Contingent Interest Payments of at least $6.7917 per $1,000 principal amount, equivalent to a minimum 8.15% per annum rate, when the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index, Russell 2000 Index and S&P 500 Index each close at or above 70% of their Initial Values on a Review Date.
How can investors in AMJB notes lose principal at maturity?
If the notes are not redeemed early and on the final Review Date the Final Value of any index is below 60% of its Initial Value, the maturity payment per $1,000 is calculated as $1,000 plus $1,000 times the Least Performing Index Return. This can result in losing more than 40% of principal and up to the entire $1,000.
When can JPMorgan redeem the AMJB structured notes early?
JPMorgan may, at its election, redeem the notes early, in whole but not in part, on any Interest Payment Date other than the first, second and final ones, starting on March 5, 2026. On early redemption, holders receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable Contingent Interest Payment, if any, for the immediately preceding Review Date.
What indices determine payments on the AMJB Callable Contingent Interest Notes?
Payments depend on three indices considered individually: the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index (NDXT), the Russell 2000 Index (RTY) and the S&P 500 Index (SPX). Interest and principal outcomes are driven by the Least Performing Index relative to its Interest Barrier (70% of Initial Value) and Trigger Value (60% of Initial Value).
What is the estimated value of the JPMorgan AMJB notes versus the price to public?
If priced on the described date, the estimated value would be approximately $961.10 per $1,000 principal amount, and the final estimated value disclosed at pricing will not be less than $900. The difference from the $1,000 price to public reflects selling commissions, projected hedging profits or losses, and hedging costs.
Do AMJB note holders receive any dividends from the underlying indices?
No. Investors do not receive dividends on the securities in any of the indices and have no shareholder rights. Returns are limited to the contingent interest and principal repayment formula specified in the terms of the notes.
What key risks are highlighted for investors considering AMJB structured notes?
Key risks include potential loss of principal if any index finishes below its Trigger Value, the possibility of receiving no interest if any index is below its Interest Barrier on Review Dates, credit risk of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., sector and small-cap exposure risks, lack of liquidity and likely lower secondary market prices than the original $1,000 issue price.
