JPMorgan (AMJB) details Boeing-linked callable contingent interest notes terms
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering callable contingent interest notes linked to the common stock of The Boeing Company, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes pay a contingent interest rate of at least 10.00% per annum (at least 2.50% per quarter) only if Boeing’s share price on each Review Date is at or above an Interest Barrier set at 65.00% of the Initial Value.
The notes are callable at the issuer’s option on any Interest Payment Date starting July 2, 2026, other than the first and final dates. If not called and Boeing’s final stock price is below the Trigger Value (also 65.00% of the Initial Value), investors’ principal repayment is reduced one-for-one with the stock’s decline, which can lead to losing more than 35% and up to all of the investment. The estimated value is indicated at approximately $970.00 per $1,000 note, and at pricing it will not be less than $950.00.
