[424B2] JPMORGAN CHASE & CO Prospectus Supplement
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., is offering callable contingent interest notes linked to the worst performer of three State Street SPDR ETFs: Homebuilders (XHB), Consumer Discretionary (XLY) and Regional Banking (KRE). The notes target a contingent interest rate of at least 11.15% per year, paid quarterly, but interest is only paid for periods in which each ETF stays at or above 70% of its initial value, and missed coupons can be paid later if the condition is later met.
The notes can be called early at the issuer’s option on quarterly interest dates starting June 26, 2026. At maturity in December 2028, if none of the ETFs has fallen below 60% of its initial value, investors receive full principal plus any due contingent interest. If any ETF ends below that 60% trigger, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the loss of the worst-performing ETF, and investors can lose most or all of their principal. The preliminary estimated value is about $960 per $1,000 note, and at issuance it will not be less than $940, reflecting dealer fees, hedging costs and issuer funding spreads.

FAQ
What are JPMorgan’s Callable Contingent Interest Notes linked to XHB, XLY and KRE?
These notes are unsecured, unsubordinated debt of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., that pay contingent quarterly interest and return of principal based on the performance of three State Street SPDR ETFs: Homebuilders (XHB), Consumer Discretionary (XLY) and Regional Banking (KRE).
How does the contingent interest work on the AMJB JPMorgan structured notes?
For each Review Date, if the closing price of each ETF is at least 70% of its initial value (the Interest Barrier), investors receive a Contingent Interest Payment of at least $27.875 per $1,000 note, equal to an annual rate of at least 11.15%, plus any previously unpaid coupons. If any ETF is below its barrier, no interest is paid for that period.
When can these JPMorgan contingent interest notes be called early?
The issuer may redeem the notes early, in whole but not in part, on any Interest Payment Date other than the first and final ones. The earliest possible call date is June 26, 2026. On early redemption, investors receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable contingent interest and any previously unpaid contingent interest if payable.
What happens at maturity if the ETFs fall below their trigger values?
If the notes are not called and on the final Review Date any ETF closes below 60% of its initial value (the Trigger Value), the maturity payment per $1,000 note is $1,000 plus $1,000 multiplied by the return of the worst-performing ETF. In this case, investors lose more than 40% of principal and could lose their entire investment.
What is the estimated value versus the price to public for these JPMorgan notes?
If priced on the described terms, the estimated value would be approximately $960 per $1,000 note, and at pricing it will not be less than $940 per $1,000. The price to public is $1,000 per note, with the difference reflecting selling commissions of up to $17.50 per $1,000, a structuring fee of up to $1.00 per $1,000, projected hedging profits and hedging costs.
What are the main risks of investing in the AMJB callable contingent interest notes?
Key risks include: no principal protection if any ETF finishes below its 60% trigger; the possibility of no interest at all if barriers are not met; credit risk of JPMorgan Chase Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.; limited upside to the sum of contingent coupons; illiquidity since the notes are not exchange-listed; and potential conflicts of interest and secondary market prices below the issue price.
How are these JPMorgan notes expected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes?
JPMorgan intends to treat the notes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons. Under this approach, Contingent Interest Payments are treated as ordinary income. The tax treatment is not certain and the IRS could assert a different characterization. Non-U.S. holders generally face 30% withholding on contingent interest, subject to treaty relief, and should consult tax advisers.
