High-yield JPMorgan notes tied to Chipotle, Costco and Oracle stocks
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering $566,000 of Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes linked to the worst performer of Chipotle, Costco and Oracle stock, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes pay a contingent coupon of $12.6667 per $1,000 each month (a 15.20% per annum rate) only if, on the relevant review date, each stock closes at or above 60% of its initial price; missed coupons can be paid later if this condition is met.
The notes can be automatically called starting May 26, 2026 if all three stocks are at or above their initial values, returning $1,000 plus due coupons, ending the investment early. If held to the November 29, 2028 maturity and any stock finishes below 50% of its initial value, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the decline in the worst-performing stock, potentially leading to a loss of more than half, or even all, of principal. The price to public is $1,000 per note, while the issuer’s estimated value is $928.90, reflecting embedded fees, hedging costs and dealer compensation.

FAQ
What is JPMorgan’s AMJB Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes offering?
The AMJB notes are Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes issued by JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, linked to the least performing of Chipotle, Costco and Oracle common stock, and fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The total offering size is $566,000 in $1,000 minimum denominations.
How do the contingent interest payments on AMJB notes work?
For each $1,000 note, investors may receive a contingent interest payment of $12.6667 on each interest payment date, equal to a 15.20% per annum rate, if on the corresponding review date each stock’s closing price is at or above its 60.00% Interest Barrier. Missed coupons can be paid later if the condition is subsequently satisfied.
When can the AMJB notes be automatically called and what do investors receive?
Starting with the May 26, 2026 review date (excluding the first through fifth and final review dates), the notes are automatically called if each stock closes at or above its Initial Value. Investors then receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable contingent interest and any previously unpaid contingent interest on the following call settlement date, with no further payments.
What happens at maturity if the AMJB notes are not called early?
If the notes are not called and on the final review date each stock’s closing price is at or above its 50.00% Trigger Value, investors receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable final contingent interest and any unpaid prior contingent interest. If any stock finishes below its Trigger Value, the maturity payment is $1,000 plus $1,000 × Least Performing Stock Return, which can reduce principal by more than 50% and down to zero.
What are the key risks of investing in JPMorgan’s AMJB structured notes?
Key risks include the possibility of losing a significant portion or all principal if the least performing stock ends below its Trigger Value, and the risk that no interest is ever paid if any stock remains below its Interest Barrier on all review dates. Investors are also exposed to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., potential illiquidity as the notes are not exchange-listed, and an estimated value of $928.90 per $1,000 note that is lower than the price to public due to embedded fees and hedging costs.
What are the initial values, Interest Barriers and Trigger Values for CMG, COST and ORCL?
On the pricing date, the Initial Value, Interest Barrier (60%) and Trigger Value (50%) for each stock were: Chipotle (CMG) $31.19, barriers $18.714 and $15.595; Costco (COST) $886.12, barriers $531.672 and $443.06; Oracle (ORCL) $200.28, barriers $120.168 and $100.14.

They are not bank deposits, are not insured by the FDIC or any governmental agency, and are not obligations of, or guaranteed by, a bank.
