FAQ
What is JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) offering in this 424B2?
The company is offering callable contingent interest notes due November 8, 2027, linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000, S&P 500 and EURO STOXX 50 indices, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co..
How do the contingent interest payments on the AMJB structured notes work?
For each $1,000 note, you receive a monthly Contingent Interest Payment of at least $7.50 (a rate of at least 9.00% per annum) only if, on that review date, the closing level of each index is at or above 70.00% of its initial value.
When can the AMJB notes be called early and what do investors receive?
JPMorgan may redeem the notes early, in whole, on specified interest payment dates (other than the first five and final dates). On early redemption, holders receive $1,000 per note plus any applicable contingent interest tied to the immediately preceding review date.
How can principal be lost on these JPMorgan callable contingent interest notes?
If the notes are not redeemed early and, at maturity, any index is below its initial level and has at any time during the monitoring period closed below 50.00% of its initial value, the maturity payment is $1,000 plus $1,000 times the least performing index return, so losses track the decline of the worst index and can reach a 100% loss of principal.
What is the estimated value of the AMJB notes relative to the price to public?
If priced on the reference date, the estimated value would be approximately $965.40 per $1,000 note, and the final estimated value will not be less than $900.00 per $1,000. This is below the price to public because it includes selling commissions, projected hedging profits or losses, and hedging costs.
What key risks does JPMorgan highlight for these structured notes?
JPMorgan notes that the principal is not protected, interest payments are not guaranteed, payments depend on the worst-performing index, and the notes carry the credit risk of both JPMorgan Chase Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations and may be illiquid.
What tax treatment does JPMorgan expect for the AMJB callable contingent interest notes?
JPMorgan intends to treat the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons, with any contingent interest treated as ordinary income. The company notes that alternative treatments are possible and that Non-U.S. Holders may face 30% withholding on contingent interest payments unless reduced by treaty.
