JPMorgan (NYSE: AMJB) offers uncapped barrier notes on Dow, Nasdaq-100, S&P 500
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., is offering uncapped accelerated barrier notes linked to the least performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, Nasdaq-100 Index® and S&P 500® Index, maturing on January 19, 2029. The notes have minimum denominations of $1,000 and do not pay periodic interest or dividends.
At maturity, if all three indices finish above their initial levels, investors receive $1,000 plus at least 1.42 times the gain of the worst-performing index. If one or more indices are at or below their initial level but all remain at or above 70% of their initial values (the barrier), investors receive only their principal back. If any index closes below 70% of its initial value, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the decline of the least performing index, and the entire principal can be lost.
The notes are unsecured obligations exposed to the credit risk of both the issuer and guarantor. An illustrative estimated value is about $959.20 per $1,000 note if priced on the example date, and the final estimated value will not be less than $900.00 per $1,000.

FAQ
What is JPMorgan AMJB’s uncapped accelerated barrier note linked to major indices?
The notes are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., that return at maturity an amount tied to the least performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, Nasdaq-100 Index® and S&P 500® Index, with an uncapped leveraged upside and a downside barrier.
How does the payoff work on these JPMorgan index-linked barrier notes?
If each index’s final level is above its initial level, the maturity payment per $1,000 note is $1,000 plus the least performing index’s return multiplied by an upside leverage factor of at least 1.42. If any index ends below 70% of its initial value, the repayment is $1,000 plus $1,000 times the least performing index return, which can reduce principal to zero.
What protection does the 70% barrier provide on the JPMorgan AMJB notes?
The notes use a barrier amount of 70.00% of the initial value for each index. If every index finishes at or above 70% of its initial level, investors receive at least their full principal at maturity, even if one or more indices are below their initial levels. If any index finishes below this barrier, the barrier benefit ends and losses track the decline of the least performing index.
Do the JPMorgan uncapped accelerated barrier notes pay interest or dividends?
No. The notes do not pay interest, and holders do not receive dividends from any securities in the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, Nasdaq-100 Index® or S&P 500® Index, nor any voting or other rights in those underlying securities.
What are the key dates and denominations for these JPMorgan AMJB structured notes?
The notes are expected to price on or about January 14, 2026, settle on or about January 20, 2026, have an observation date on January 16, 2029 and mature on January 19, 2029, subject to postponement for market disruption events. The minimum denomination is $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.
What estimated value is disclosed for the JPMorgan index-linked barrier notes?
If the notes were priced on the example date, the estimated value would be approximately $959.20 per $1,000 principal amount note. The final estimated value, set on the pricing date, will be disclosed and will not be less than $900.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, reflecting selling commissions, hedging costs and structuring factors.
What are the main risks of investing in JPMorgan’s uncapped accelerated barrier notes?

Secondary market prices are expected to be below the original issue price.
