JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) offers buffered index Review Notes to 2028
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., is issuing $512,000 of structured Review Notes linked to the least performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index, maturing on December 21, 2028. The notes are sold in $1,000 denominations at $1,000 per note, with selling commissions of $29.50 and proceeds to the issuer of $970.50 per note, and an estimated value of $953.20 per $1,000 at pricing.
The notes may be automatically called on review dates in 2026, 2027 or 2028 if each index is at or above its initial level, paying back $1,000 plus a call premium of 7.60%, 15.20% or 22.80% respectively. If not called, at maturity investors receive $1,000 plus the absolute decline of the worst index when all index losses are within a 20% buffer, capped at a maximum payment of $1,200 per $1,000 note. If any index falls by more than 20% from its initial level, principal is reduced beyond the buffer and investors can lose up to 80% of their investment.
The notes pay no interest, do not provide dividends from index components, are unsecured obligations subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and are not expected to be listed, so liquidity will depend on the willingness of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC to make a secondary market at potentially substantial discounts to the issue price.

FAQ
What is JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) offering in this 424B2 pricing supplement?
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering $512,000 of Structured Review Notes linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.. The notes are unsecured, denominated in $1,000 minimums, and are scheduled to mature on December 21, 2028.
How do the automatic call and coupon features work on these AMJB structured notes?
On each Review Date (December 18, 2026, December 16, 2027 and December 18, 2028), if the closing level of each index is at or above its Call Value (100% of its Initial Value), the notes are automatically called and pay $1,000 plus a Call Premium of 7.60%, 15.20% or 22.80% of $1,000, depending on the call year. After an automatic call, no further payments are made.
What happens at maturity if the AMJB notes are not automatically called?
If the notes are not called and all index declines are within the 20.00% Buffer Amount, investors receive $1,000 plus the Absolute Index Return of the Least Performing Index, capped at a maximum payment of $1,200.00 per $1,000 note. If any index ends more than 20% below its Initial Value, the maturity payment becomes $1,000 plus $1,000 × (Least Performing Index Return + 20.00%), so a large decline in the worst index can reduce principal significantly.
What are the main risks highlighted for investors in these JPMorgan structured notes?
The notes do not guarantee principal and investors may lose up to 80.00% of their investment if the Least Performing Index falls by more than 20.00% from its Initial Value. They pay no interest, provide no dividends from the underlying index components, and are subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.. The issuer also warns of limited liquidity, potential conflicts of interest, and that secondary market prices will likely be below the original issue price.
How are fees, proceeds, and estimated value structured for the AMJB Review Notes?
The price to the public is $1,000 per note. Selling commissions are $29.50 per $1,000, leaving $970.50 in proceeds to the issuer per note. On the full $512,000 offering, commissions total $15,104, with issuer proceeds of $496,896. The issuer estimates the initial economic value at $953.20 per $1,000 note, reflecting internal funding and hedging assumptions.
Which equity indices are referenced by the AMJB Review Notes and what were their initial levels?
The notes reference the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index. The Initial Values on the December 16, 2025 Pricing Date were 48,114.26 for the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, 2,519.304 for the Russell 2000® Index and 6,800.26 for the S&P 500® Index, and these levels determine future performance and payoff calculations.
How might U.S. federal income tax rules apply to investors in these JPMorgan Review Notes?
JPMorgan’s special tax counsel states it is reasonable to treat the notes as open transactions that are not debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, so gain or loss should generally be capital gain or loss, long-term if held more than a year. However, the Internal Revenue Service or a court could take a different view, and future guidance on prepaid forward contracts and Section 871(m) could affect tax outcomes, so investors are encouraged to consult their own tax advisers.
