JPMorgan offers callable contingent‑interest notes
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering callable contingent interest notes linked to the lesser performing of the VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF and the VanEck® Semiconductor ETF, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes have a Pricing Date on or about March 9, 2026, an Original Issue Date on or about March 12, 2026, and a Maturity Date of March 14, 2029. For each $1,000 principal amount, contingent interest payments may be made on scheduled Interest Payment Dates when the closing price of one share of each Fund is at least 50.00% of its Initial Value; the contingent interest rate is at least 14.90% per annum. The issuer may redeem the notes early as of the first optional redemption date of September 14, 2026. Investors face principal loss if the Final Value of either Fund is below the Trigger Value, with payoff at maturity calculated using the Lesser Performing Fund Return.

Insights
TL;DR: The notes offer high contingent coupons but principal risk tied to the lesser‑performing ETF.
The structure pays contingent monthly-like interest at a rate of at least 14.90% per annum (at least 1.24167% per month) when both Funds meet the 50.00% Interest Barrier on Review Dates. Payments stop if either Fund closes below the barrier on a Review Date.
The optional early redemption feature (earliest September 14, 2026) can shorten expected receipt of future contingent payments; secondary market liquidity and repurchase pricing will likely be below original issue price.
TL;DR: Credit and liquidity risks of the issuer/guarantor are primary non-market hazards.
These are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC with a full guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Payments depend on both entities' creditworthiness; a default could eliminate payments.
Secondary market values are expected to be lower than the original issue price; the pricing supplement states an estimated value floor of 900.00 per 1,000. Timing and size of withholding for Non‑U.S. Holders may also affect net returns.
