The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering capped buffered enhanced participation notes linked to the Russell 2000® Index due February 3, 2028. The notes pay no interest and provide 150.00% participation in positive index returns subject to a maximum payment amount expected to be at least $1,220.00 per $1,000. A 10.00% buffer protects losses up to that decline; declines beyond the buffer expose holders to downside and could result in losses up to 90.00% of principal. Trade date is expected to be April 29, 2026 and original issue price is 100%. The Bank’s initial estimated value range is $925.00 to $965.00 per $1,000, indicating issuance costs and dealer compensation will make the purchase price higher than the issuer’s internal estimated value. All payments are subject to the Bank’s credit risk and there will likely be limited secondary market liquidity.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Buffered Index-Linked Notes linked to the S&P 500® with expected trade date April 29, 2026, valuation date July 29, 2027 and expected maturity August 3, 2027. The notes do not pay interest; principal repayment at maturity depends on the S&P 500 price return from the initial level to the final level subject to a 10.00% buffer and a capped upside. If the final level is down by more than 10.00%, you incur losses equal to the index decline beyond the buffer (you may lose up to 90.00% of principal). The maximum upside payment is expected to be at least $1,107.50 per $1,000 principal amount (cap ≈ 110.75%), and the original issue price is 100%. The Bank’s initial estimated value range is $925.00 to $965.00 per $1,000, reflecting fees, hedging costs and the Bank’s internal funding rate. Payments are unsecured and subject to the Bank’s creditworthiness. The notes are not listed and may have limited liquidity; underwriting concessions and structuring fees of up to 1.50% and 0.50% respectively are disclosed.

Payments depend on the least performing reference asset return and are unsecured obligations of the Bank.

If both reference assets finish at or above their initial levels on the call observation date the notes will be automatically called and pay principal plus a call premium (expected to be at least 14.40%). If not called, maturity payouts depend on the least performing reference asset: positive participation at a 250.00% rate if both finish above initial levels; full principal if the least performer is >= 75.00% of its initial level; otherwise investors suffer the full downside of the least performing reference asset (loss up to 100%). The Bank discloses an initial estimated value range of $925.00 to $965.00 per $1,000 principal amount at pricing.

Expected trade date is April 30, 2026, original issue price is 100%, initial estimated value is expected between $925.00 and $965.00 per $1,000, and the notes are unsecured obligations of the Bank.

If on any call date the lowest performing Fund’s fund closing price is greater than or equal to its starting price, the notes are automatically called and pay the face amount plus a fixed call premium (first call premium 18.50%, increasing to 55.50% on the final call date). If not called, maturity payment depends on the ending price of the lowest performing Fund: you receive $1,000 if that Fund’s ending price is ≥60% of its starting price, otherwise you receive $1,000 × performance factor and may lose more than 40%, possibly all, of the face amount.
The Bank’s estimated value per security on the pricing date was $910.01 versus an original offering price of $1,000. Distribution involves Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, with agent discounts and selling concessions reflected in proceeds.

If a call observation date closing price is >= initial price, the notes are automatically called and pay principal plus the contingent coupon; contingent coupons accrue based on a fixed amount of at least $31.00 per observation-date multiple. If not called, maturity payoff equals $1,000 if the final price is >= the trigger price, or $1,000 plus $1,000×reference asset return (which can result in losing up to 100% of principal).
