JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering callable Contingent Interest Notes linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000®, the Nasdaq-100® and the iShares® 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF due April 19, 2029. The notes are expected to price on or about April 14, 2026 and settle on or about April 17, 2026, with a price to public of $1,000 per note and an estimated value of approximately $959.40 per $1,000 note (not less than $900.00 per $1,000 note).
The notes pay a monthly Contingent Interest Payment only if the closing value of each Underlying on a Review Date is at least 70.00% of its Initial Value; the Contingent Interest Rate will be between 11.25% and 13.25% per annum (monthly equivalent between 0.9375% and 1.10417%). The issuer may call the notes early beginning October 19, 2026. At maturity, if any Underlying is below the Trigger Value, payment is based on the Least Performing Underlying Return and you could lose a significant portion or all of principal. Payments are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Financial and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Insights
High coupon range offsets significant principal and liquidity risk.
The notes offer a quoted Contingent Interest Rate between 11.25% and 13.25% per annum, payable monthly if all three Underlyings meet the 70.00% Interest Barrier on a Review Date. This construction provides potentially attractive periodic payouts but only when the three Underlyings independently exceed the barrier on the same Review Date.
The payout profile is asymmetric: upside is limited to the sum of contingent coupons while downside at maturity is linked to the Least Performing Underlying Return, exposing holders to full equity or long-duration bond downside. The notes are not listed and secondary market liquidity will likely be limited; early redemption is at the issuer's discretion starting October 19, 2026.
Tax treatment is uncertain; issuer intends prepaid-forward treatment.
The issuer intends to treat the notes as prepaid forward contracts with contingent coupons, and to characterize Contingent Interest Payments as ordinary income for U.S. Holders. This position is supported by counsel but is not binding on the IRS.
For Non-U.S. Holders, withholding on Contingent Interest Payments is expected absent valid documentation; Section 871(m) determinations are issuer-based and may change. Consult a tax adviser for consequences and reporting implications.
