JPMorgan Chase Financial (NYSE: AMJB) details auto callable index-linked notes
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering auto callable contingent interest notes linked individually to the Nasdaq-100 Index, the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes are scheduled to price on or about January 9, 2026, settle on or about January 14, 2026 and mature on January 14, 2031, with $1,000 minimum denominations.
The notes pay a contingent interest rate of at least 7.80% per year, or at least 1.95% per quarter, but only for Review Dates when the closing level of each index is at least 70% of its initial level. Starting with the January 11, 2027 Review Date, the notes are automatically called if each index is at or above its initial level, returning $1,000 plus the applicable interest. If the notes are not called and any index finishes below 50% of its initial level at maturity, investors lose principal in line with the worst index, potentially losing the entire investment. The notes are unsecured, subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and do not pay dividends on the underlying stocks.

FAQ
What are the JPMorgan AMJB auto callable contingent interest notes described in this 424B2?
The notes are auto callable contingent interest notes issued by JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. They are linked to the individual performance of the Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 and S&P 500 indexes, pay conditional quarterly interest, and can be redeemed early automatically if index conditions are met.
How do the contingent interest payments on the JPMorgan AMJB notes work?
For each $1,000 note, investors receive a contingent interest payment of at least $19.50 per quarter (at least 7.80% per annum) only if, on the relevant Review Date, the closing level of each index is at or above its 70% interest barrier. If any index is below its barrier on a Review Date, no interest is paid for that quarter.
When can the JPMorgan AMJB notes be automatically called before maturity?
The notes can be automatically called on any Review Date other than the first three and the final one, starting with the Review Date on January 11, 2027. If on such a date each index closes at or above its initial level, investors receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable contingent interest, and no further payments are made.
What happens at maturity of the JPMorgan auto callable notes if they are not called?
If the notes are not called and on the final Review Date the final value of each index is at or above 50% of its initial level, investors receive $1,000 per note plus any contingent interest due. If any index is below its 50% trigger value, the maturity payment is reduced according to the worst index’s return, and investors can lose more than 50% and up to all of their principal.
What are the main risks of investing in the JPMorgan AMJB structured notes?
Key risks include: no principal protection, with potential loss of the entire investment if the least performing index finishes below 50% of its initial level; the possibility that no interest is ever paid if any index stays below its barrier on all Review Dates; credit risk of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.; lack of listing and potential limited liquidity; and secondary market prices that may be well below the $1,000 issue price.
Which indices underlie the JPMorgan AMJB contingent interest notes and what exposures do they provide?
The notes reference three equity benchmarks: the Nasdaq-100 Index, focused on large non-financial growth companies (including non-U.S. issuers), the Russell 2000 Index, tracking U.S. small capitalization stocks, and the S&P 500 Index, a broad U.S. large-cap benchmark. Payments depend on the performance of each index individually, not on an averaged basket.
How is the estimated value of the JPMorgan auto callable notes determined relative to the $1,000 issue price?
The preliminary disclosure states an estimated value of about $964.10 per $1,000 note if priced on the indicated date, and at least $930.00 per $1,000 note when terms are set. This estimate is based on a combination of a fixed-income component and embedded derivatives, and is lower than the $1,000 issue price because it reflects selling commissions, projected hedging profits or losses, and hedging costs.
