The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $100,000 in Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to the ordinary share of CRH public limited company due April 9, 2027. The notes pay a contingent coupon of $10.875 per $1,000 (1.0875% monthly, up to 13.05% annually) on any coupon payment date when the closing price of CRH is >= the coupon barrier of 72.75% of the initial price. The initial price is $106.41 (closing price on the trade date). Observation dates occur monthly (6th calendar day) from April 2026 through April 2027; call observation dates run from September 2026 through March 2027. If any call observation date’s closing price is >= the initial price, the notes are automatically called and you receive $1,000 plus the contingent coupon per $1,000 principal. At maturity, if the final price is below 72.75% of the initial price, principal is reduced pro rata (you lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline from the initial price), and no contingent coupon is paid. The notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Bank, are not listed, and payments depend on the Bank’s creditworthiness. The initial estimated value was $979.56 per $1,000, and underwriting commissions equal 0.65%.
