JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) issues S&P 500 futures-linked auto-callable notes
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., is issuing $2,138,000 of Auto Callable Accelerated Barrier Notes linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index, maturing on December 15, 2032. Each note has a $1,000 denomination and pays no interest.
The notes may be automatically called on December 16, 2026 if the index is at or above the Call Value, returning $1,000 plus a $167.50 call premium per note. If not called and the index is above its initial level at maturity, holders receive 2.0x the index gain; if the index is between 70% and 100% of its initial level, only principal is repaid. If the index finishes below 70% of its initial level, principal loss is 1:1 with the index decline and can reach a total loss.
The notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations subject to the credit risk of both the issuer and guarantor. The estimated value at pricing was $964.10 per $1,000 note, below the issue price, reflecting selling commissions, hedging costs and issuer funding assumptions, and secondary market liquidity may be limited.

How is the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index used in these AMJB notes?
The notes’ payoff is tied to the performance of the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index, which tracks the nearest-maturity E-mini® S&P 500® futures contracts on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The initial index level on the pricing date was 562.14, and the final level on the observation date determines whether the notes return enhanced upside, par, or a loss of principal.
Why is the estimated value of the AMJB structured notes lower than the issue price?
The estimated value at pricing was $964.10 per $1,000 note, lower than the issue price, because it excludes selling commissions of $7.50 per note, projected hedging profits or losses, and hedging costs. It is derived from internal funding rates and derivative pricing models and does not represent a minimum secondary market price.
