JPMorgan (AMJB) AMD-linked auto callable notes with 15% contingent yield
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering $1,501,000 of auto callable contingent interest notes linked to the common stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes pay a 15.00% per annum contingent interest rate, or 3.75% per quarter, but only for Review Dates when AMD’s closing price is at or above 50% of the initial share value, called the Interest Barrier. If on any non-final Review Date AMD closes at or above the initial value, the notes are automatically called, and investors receive $1,000 per note plus that quarter’s interest, with no further payments.
If the notes are not called and, on the final Review Date, AMD is at or above the Trigger Value (also 50% of the initial value), investors receive back $1,000 per note plus the final interest payment. If AMD finishes below the Trigger Value, repayment is reduced in line with AMD’s decline, and investors can lose more than 50% and up to all of their principal. The price to the public is $1,000 per note, including $22.25 in selling commissions, while the estimated value at pricing is $961.80, reflecting embedded costs, issuer funding rates and hedging.

FAQ
What is JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) offering in this AMD-linked note?
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering $1,501,000 of auto callable contingent interest notes linked to the common stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD), fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Each note has a $1,000 principal amount and is an unsecured, unsubordinated obligation subject to the credit risk of both the issuer and the guarantor.
How do the contingent interest payments work on the AMJB AMD-linked notes?
For each $1,000 note, investors may receive a $37.50 Contingent Interest Payment on each Interest Payment Date, which equals a 15.00% per annum rate paid quarterly at 3.75%. A payment is made only if, on the related Review Date, AMD’s closing price is at or above the Interest Barrier, set at 50.00% of the initial share value. If AMD closes below the Interest Barrier on a Review Date, no interest is paid for that quarter.
When can the AMJB notes be automatically called, and what does the investor receive?
The notes are automatically called if, on any Review Date other than the final one, AMD’s closing price is at or above the Initial Value. In that case, on the applicable Call Settlement Date, investors receive for each $1,000 note a cash payment of $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment for that Review Date, and no additional interest or principal payments will be made thereafter.
What happens at maturity of the AMJB AMD-linked notes if they are not automatically called?
If the notes are not called early and AMD’s final closing price on the last Review Date is at or above the Trigger Value (50% of the Initial Value), each note pays back $1,000 principal plus the final $37.50 Contingent Interest Payment. If AMD’s final price is below the Trigger Value, the maturity payment per $1,000 note is calculated as $1,000 + ($1,000 × Stock Return), where Stock Return is (Final Value − Initial Value) / Initial Value, so investors can lose more than 50.00% and up to all of their principal.
What are the main risks of investing in the JPMorgan AMJB AMD-linked notes?
Key risks include: principal risk, as investors can lose a significant portion or all of their investment if AMD finishes below the Trigger Value; no guaranteed interest, since Contingent Interest Payments are only made when AMD stays above the Interest Barrier on Review Dates; issuer and guarantor credit risk, because payments depend on JPMorgan Chase Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.; no dividends or shareholder rights in AMD; and limited liquidity, since the notes are not listed and secondary market prices are expected to be below the original issue price.
How does the price to public of the AMJB notes compare with their estimated value?
The price to the public is $1,000 per note, which includes $22.25 in selling commissions and other structuring and hedging costs. The estimated value at the time terms were set is $961.80 per $1,000 note, reflecting the value of a comparable fixed-income component and embedded derivatives, calculated using internal funding rates and pricing models.
What are the key dates for the JPMorgan AMJB AMD-linked contingent interest notes?
