Insights
Auto‑callable payoff concentrates short‑term coupon conditional on Palantir levels.
The structure offers a high contingent quarterly coupon of 4.475% (equivalent to 17.90% p.a.) per $1,000 when the Reference Stock closes at or above the Interest Barrier of 50.00% of the Initial Value ($75.475), with automatic early redemption possible starting June 15, 2026. The offering price includes selling commissions of $22.25 per note and an estimated value of $953.80 per $1,000.
Primary dependencies are the Reference Stock closing prices on scheduled Review Dates and issuer credit. Secondary market liquidity is limited and prices may be well below issue due to commissions, hedging costs and internal funding assumptions; timing of any repurchase benefits a declining initial repurchase adjustment period described in the supplement.
Tax treatment is uncertain; issuer expects prepaid‑forward characterization.
The issuer intends to treat the notes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons for U.S. federal income tax purposes; Contingent Interest Payments are expected to be ordinary income. This view reflects counsel advice but is not binding on the IRS.
Non‑U.S. Holders face withholding risk; the supplement discusses potential 30% withholding and Section 871(m) considerations and notes the issuer's determinations are not binding on tax authorities. Holders should consult advisers.
