FAQ
What is JPMorgan’s AMJB 424B2 note offering and its total size?
The offering is a series of Capped Dual Directional Buffered Equity Notes linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index, issued by JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The aggregate principal amount is $375,000, with each note issued at $1,000.
How do the capped dual directional buffered notes linked to the S&P 500 Futures Excess Return Index work?
At maturity on May 25, 2028, if the Index has risen, investors receive their $1,000 principal plus the Index return, capped by a 73.00% Maximum Upside Return (maximum payment $1,730.00 per $1,000). If the Index is flat or down by up to the 15.00% Buffer Amount, they receive a positive return equal to the Absolute Index Return, up to $1,150.00 per $1,000 note.
What downside risk do investors in the AMJB structured notes face?
If the Final Value of the Index is less than the Initial Value by more than 15.00%, the payment at maturity is $1,000 + [$1,000 × (Index Return + 15.00%)]. This means investors lose 1% of principal for every 1% Index decline beyond the buffer, and could lose up to 85.00% of their principal, receiving as little as $150.00 per $1,000 note.
Do the JPMorgan capped dual directional buffered notes pay interest or provide principal protection?
The notes do not pay interest and do not guarantee a return of principal. Returns are entirely based on the performance of the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index, subject to the 73.00% upside cap and 15.00% downside buffer. Significant principal loss is possible if the Index falls more than the buffer amount by the Observation Date.
What are the key credit and liquidity considerations for these JPMorgan structured notes?
The notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Payments depend on the credit of both entities. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange, and liquidity will rely on J.P. Morgan Securities LLC making a market, so investors may be unable to sell or may receive a price below the original issue price.
How does the pricing and estimated value of the AMJB-linked notes compare?
The price to public is $1,000 per note, which includes $27.50 in fees and commissions and other structuring and hedging costs. The estimated value at pricing is $958.80 per $1,000 note, reflecting an internal funding rate and derivative valuation inputs, so the estimated value is lower than the original issue price.
What index underlies the JPMorgan capped dual directional buffered notes and how is it constructed?
The notes are linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index (ticker SPXFP), which tracks the performance of the nearest maturing quarterly E-mini® S&P 500® futures contracts on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. It is an excess return index that reflects futures price changes and the effects of quarterly rolling, but does not include interest on collateral or dividends from the underlying S&P 500® stocks.
