JPMorgan (NYSE: AMJB) details contingent interest equity-linked notes
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., is offering auto callable contingent interest notes linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, Russell 2000® Index and S&P 500® Index, maturing on December 15, 2027. The notes can pay a quarterly contingent coupon of at least 8.85% per annum (at least $22.125 per $1,000) if on a Review Date each index is at or above 75.00% of its initial level. Beginning with the June 9, 2026 Review Date, the notes are automatically called if all three indexes are at or above their initial levels, returning $1,000 plus the applicable coupon.
If the notes are not called and on the final Review Date any index closes below 75.00% of its initial level, principal is reduced one-for-one with the decline of the worst-performing index, and investors can lose more than 25% and up to all of their investment. The notes pay no fixed interest, offer no participation in index gains or dividends, and are unsecured obligations subject to the credit risk of both JPMorgan Chase Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. The preliminary estimated value is approximately $960 per $1,000 note and will not be less than $940.

FAQ
What are the key terms of JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) auto callable contingent interest notes?
The notes are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, Russell 2000® Index and S&P 500® Index. They mature on December 15, 2027, with minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.
How do the contingent interest payments on AMJB’s structured notes work?
If the notes are not automatically called and on a Review Date the closing level of each index is at or above its 75.00% Interest Barrier, investors receive a Contingent Interest Payment of at least $22.125 per $1,000 (a rate of at least 8.85% per annum, or at least 2.2125% per quarter). If any index is below its Interest Barrier on a Review Date, no interest is paid for that period.
When can the JPMorgan Chase Financial auto callable notes be called early?
Starting with the June 9, 2026 Review Date, if on any Review Date other than the first and final one the closing level of each index is greater than or equal to its Initial Value, the notes are automatically called. On the Call Settlement Date, investors receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable Contingent Interest Payment, and no further payments are made.
What happens at maturity if AMJB’s notes are not automatically called?
If the notes are not automatically called and on the final Review Date the Final Value of each index is at or above its 75.00% Trigger Value, investors receive $1,000 per note plus the final Contingent Interest Payment. If any index is below its Trigger Value, the maturity payment per $1,000 note is $1,000 + ($1,000 × Least Performing Index Return), so investors can lose more than 25.00% of principal and possibly the entire amount.
What are the main risks of investing in these JPMorgan Chase Financial contingent interest notes?
Key risks include the possibility of losing a significant portion or all of principal if the Least Performing Index finishes below its Trigger Value, the risk that no interest may be paid if any index is below its Interest Barrier on each Review Date, and exposure to the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes are not bank deposits, are not FDIC insured, are not listed on any exchange and may have limited or no secondary market liquidity.
How is the estimated value of the AMJB structured notes determined and how does it compare to the price to public?
If priced on the indicated date, the estimated value would be approximately $960.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, and at issuance it will not be less than $940.00. This estimated value is based on an internal funding rate and derivative pricing models and is lower than the original issue price because that price includes selling commissions, a structuring fee, projected hedging profits or losses and hedging costs.
Which indexes underlie JPMorgan Chase Financial’s auto callable notes and what do they represent?
The notes reference the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, a 30-stock U.S. industrial benchmark; the Russell 2000® Index, which tracks the small capitalization segment of the U.S. equity market; and the S&P 500® Index, a 500-stock benchmark for the broader U.S. equity market.
