JPMorgan Auto-Callable Notes (AMJB) — $1.508M, 19.3% Contingent Coupon
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC priced $1,508,000 of auto callable contingent interest notes on March 6, 2026, expected to settle on or about March 11, 2026. The notes pay a Contingent Interest Rate of 19.30% per annum (equivalent to $16.0833 per $1,000 when paid) on Review Dates when each Fund is >= 70.00% of its Initial Value. The Initial Values were $79.95 for the Global X Copper Miners ETF and $87.97 for the iShares Expanded Tech-Software ETF. The notes are automatically callable if, on a qualifying Review Date (earliest call June 8, 2026), the closing price of each Fund is >= its Initial Value; upon call investors receive $1,000 plus that Review Date’s Contingent Interest Payment. At maturity (February 10, 2028) holders receive $1,000 plus any applicable contingent payment if each Fund’s Final Value >= Trigger Value (60.00% of Initial Value); if either Fund’s Final Value < Trigger Value, principal repayment is reduced pro rata by the Lesser Performing Fund Return (potential loss exceeding 40% or total loss). The notes are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Financial, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and priced to the public at $1,000 with selling commissions of $22.25 per $1,000. The estimated value at pricing was $945.90 per $1,000. Investors face liquidity, credit, sector concentration, and other risks described in the pricing supplement.

Insights
High coupon but path-dependent and downside tied to the lesser performing ETF.
The notes offer a 19.30% per annum contingent coupon paid monthly if both Funds meet the 70.00% Interest Barrier on Review Dates. Early automatic redemption is possible beginning June 8, 2026, which can shorten the term and cap upside to received contingent payments plus principal on call.
Key dependencies include the closing prices of COPX and IGV relative to their Initial Values ($79.95 and $87.97) and the timing of any automatic call. Future secondary market pricing and repurchase availability depend on JPMS’s willingness to trade and internal funding assumptions stated in the supplement.
Credit exposure is to JPMorgan Financial and guarantor JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Payments on these notes are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Financial and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Any default or widening credit spreads for either entity would likely reduce the notes’ secondary-market value.
Investors should note the issuer/guarantor credit risk is the sole source of payment beyond the contingent, underlying-linked mechanics; cash-flow treatment is subject to those credit profiles.
