JPMorgan (AMJB) auto callable notes tie 9.5% coupon to three equity indices
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., offers auto callable contingent interest notes linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000, S&P 500 and EURO STOXX 50, maturing on January 11, 2029. The notes may pay monthly contingent interest of at least 9.50% per annum (about $7.9167 per $1,000 per month) when, on a Review Date, each index closes at or above 70% of its initial level.
The notes can be automatically called as early as July 7, 2026 if, on a Review Date (other than the first five and final), each index is at or above its initial level, returning $1,000 plus that period’s interest. If not called and any index finishes below its 70% Trigger Value at maturity, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the decline of the worst index, and investors can lose more than 30% and up to all principal. The notes are unsecured, not FDIC insured, and an initial estimated value of about $971.80 per $1,000 is indicated, with a minimum final estimated value of $900.00 per $1,000.

FAQ
What are the JPMorgan AMJB auto callable contingent interest notes linked to three indices?
The notes are unsecured debt of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., that reference the Russell 2000, S&P 500 and EURO STOXX 50. Payments depend on the performance of each index individually, not on a weighted basket.
How do the contingent interest payments work on the JPMorgan AMJB notes?
For each $1,000 note, a Contingent Interest Payment of at least $7.9167 (a rate of at least 9.50% per annum) is paid on an Interest Payment Date only if, on the related Review Date, the closing level of each index is at or above 70% of its initial value. If any index is below its Interest Barrier, no interest is paid for that period.
When can the JPMorgan AMJB structured notes be automatically called early?
Starting with the July 7, 2026 Review Date (and excluding the first five and final Review Dates), the notes are automatically called if each index closes at or above its initial value. In that case, holders receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable Contingent Interest Payment on the related Call Settlement Date, and no further payments are made.
What happens at maturity of the JPMorgan AMJB notes if they have not been called?
If the notes are not called and the Final Value of each index is at or above its 70% Trigger Value, investors receive $1,000 per note plus the final Contingent Interest Payment. If the Final Value of any index is below its Trigger Value, the maturity payment per $1,000 note equals $1,000 plus $1,000 times the Least Performing Index Return, so losses mirror the decline of the worst index beyond the 30% buffer.
What principal risk do investors face with the JPMorgan AMJB auto callable notes?
The notes do not guarantee return of principal. If they are not automatically called and the worst-performing index ends below its Trigger Value, investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% that index has fallen from its initial level. This means a decline of more than 30% in the least performing index at maturity results in more than 30% loss of principal and could result in a total loss of the investment.
What is the estimated value of the JPMorgan AMJB notes relative to their issue price?
If priced on the reference date in the document, the estimated value would be approximately $971.80 per $1,000 principal amount. At pricing, the estimated value will be disclosed and will not be less than $900.00 per $1,000. The difference from the $1,000 price to public reflects selling commissions, projected hedging profits or losses, and hedging costs.
What credit and liquidity risks are associated with the JPMorgan AMJB structured notes?
Payments depend on the credit of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and the guarantee of JPMorgan Chase & Co.. The notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations and are not bank deposits or FDIC insured. They will not be listed on an exchange, and any secondary market is expected to be limited, with potential sale prices below the original issue price.
