The Bank of Nova Scotia priced market-linked senior notes: monthly fixed coupon (rate to be set on pricing date, at least 12.25% per annum), face amount $1,000 per security, issue date May 4, 2026 and stated maturity May 4, 2029. The notes are auto-callable monthly (Nov 2026–Apr 2029) if the lowest performing underlying stock closes at or above 95% of its starting price; otherwise the maturity payoff depends on the lowest performing stock versus a 70% downside threshold and may result in loss of more than 30% of principal. Estimated value range on the cover: $903.10–$933.10 per security. Payments are unsecured obligations of the Bank and carry its credit risk; securities are not insured and have no exchange listing.
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) offers Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities linked to the common stock of GE Vernova Inc. The notes have a stated principal amount of $1,000.00 per security, pricing date April 17, 2026, original issue date April 22, 2026, and maturity on or about April 20, 2029.
The securities pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $34.625 (equivalent to 13.85% per annum) on each contingent coupon payment date only if the underlying closing price on the related determination date is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price, defined as 50.00% of the initial share price. The notes are auto-callable before maturity if the closing price on a determination date is greater than or equal to the call threshold price (equal to 100.00% of the initial share price), in which case you receive the stated principal plus the contingent coupon payable for that date and any unpaid memory coupons.
These are principal-at-risk, senior unsecured obligations of BNS; if the final share price is below the downside threshold you receive the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor and may lose a significant portion or all of your investment. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk and limited secondary-market liquidity.
The Bank of Nova Scotia offers Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due on or about April 20, 2029 linked to the common stock of Microsoft Corporation. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount and pays a $27.125 contingent quarterly coupon (equivalent to 10.85% per annum) when the closing price on a determination date is at or above the downside threshold (70% of the initial share price).
If a determination date (other than the final date) meets the call threshold (100% of the initial share price), the securities are automatically redeemed at the stated principal plus that quarter's contingent coupon. If the final share price is below the downside threshold, maturity payment equals the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor (final/initial share price), exposing investors 1-for-1 to declines and risking loss of a significant portion or all principal. All payments are subject to the credit risk of BNS. Pricing date is April 17, 2026; original issue date is April 22, 2026.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior, unsecured market-linked notes with a $1,000 face amount per security that are auto-callable and linked to the lowest performing share of Amazon, Microsoft and Oracle. If automatically called (call date approximately April 22, 2027), holders receive the face amount plus a 50.00% call premium. If not called, the maturity payoff (stated maturity April 20, 2029) depends solely on the ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock and may provide leveraged upside (an upside participation rate of at least 234%) or full downside exposure (losses greater than 50%, potentially the entire face amount). The Bank’s estimated value at pricing is between $888.00 and $918.00 per security; the original offering price is $1,000.00, which includes selling concessions and hedging costs. The securities do not pay interest, are subject to the Bank’s credit risk, and lack a guaranteed secondary market.

The securities are senior unsecured notes of BNS, do not guarantee principal, expose holders 1-to-1 to downside on the final share price if below the downside threshold, and may be automatically redeemed early if the underlying meets the call threshold. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk and limited secondary-market liquidity.

The notes pay no interest and provide 170.00% participation in positive index returns up to a maximum payment expected between $1,193.29 and $1,227.29 per $1,000. The notes provide a 12.50% buffer (buffer level = 87.50% of initial level) — losses beyond that are multiplied by a buffer rate of approximately 114.29%, so investors may lose up to their entire principal. The notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Bank, not listed, and subject to the Bank’s credit risk. The Bank’s initial estimated value range is $957.00 to $987.00 per $1,000, below the original issue price of 100%.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to Best Buy Co., Inc. The notes pay a contingent monthly coupon of $16.292 per $1,000 if the reference stock closes at or above a 67.00% coupon barrier. Notes are $1,000 each ($817,000 aggregate), trade date April 6, 2026, original issue date April 9, 2026, and mature on May 11, 2027 unless automatically called.
The notes are automatically called on a call observation date (Oct 2026–Apr 2027) if the closing price is equal to or greater than the initial price of $64.20, in which case holders receive $1,000 plus the contingent coupon. If not called, final payment depends on the final price on May 6, 2027. If the final price is below 67.00% of the initial price, holders suffer proportional principal loss (you lose 1% for each 1% decline from the initial price) and receive no contingent coupon. The Bank's creditworthiness governs all payments. The Bank's initial estimated value was $987.91 per $1,000, below the original issue price.

The initial price was $64.20 (trade date April 6, 2026). The notes mature on May 11, 2027, are automatically called if a call observation date closing price is at or above the initial price, and expose investors to full principal risk if the final price is below the trigger price.

The notes are senior, unsecured obligations due May 26, 2027, with expected trade date April 21, 2026 and original issue price of 100% per $1,000 note. Each monthly contingent coupon equals $9.792 per $1,000 if the closing price of Netflix on an observation date is ≥69.00% of the initial price; otherwise no coupon is paid. Notes may be automatically called on specified call observation dates if the closing price is ≥ the initial price, in which case holders receive $1,000 plus the contingent coupon. If not called and the final price is below 69.00% of the initial price, holders receive a share delivery amount equal to $1,000 divided by the initial price and will likely suffer a substantial loss.

Notes may be automatically called on call observation dates beginning in October 2026 if the reference stock closes at or above the initial price; upon a call you receive $1,000 plus the contingent coupon. If not called and the final price is below 70.00%, you receive a share delivery amount (a number of Citigroup shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial price) and no contingent coupon, meaning you could lose all or most of your investment. The initial estimated value range on pricing is $925.00 to $955.00 per $1,000 principal, while the original issue price is 100.00%.
