The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $8,785,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due March 9, 2029 linked to the American Depositary Receipts of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal and an initial estimated value of $965.60 on the pricing date.
The securities pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $30.90 (equivalent to 12.36% per annum) only if the closing price on a determination date is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price of $169.445 (50.00% of the initial share price). They are auto‑callable early if the closing price on a determination date is greater than or equal to the call threshold price of $338.89 (100.00% of the initial share price). If the final share price is below the downside threshold, the investor’s payment at maturity equals the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor and could be less than 50.00% of principal, possibly zero.
All payments are subject to the credit risk of BNS; investors do not participate in underlying stock appreciation, do not receive dividends, and must accept the risk of losing a significant portion or all of their investment.
The Bank of Nova Scotia priced a series of senior, equity-linked notes due March 9, 2029 that are auto-callable and pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 11.10% if IBM's stock meets threshold tests on scheduled calculation days.
Each security has an original offering price and face amount of $1,000. The starting price for the Underlying Stock (IBM) is $258.85; the coupon and downside threshold prices are $155.31 (60% of the starting price). The notes are automatically called if the stock closing price on any quarterly calculation day from June 2026 through December 2028 is greater than or equal to the starting price. If not called, maturity cash pay‑outs depend on the ending price: holders receive $1,000 if the ending price is at or above the downside threshold, but suffer full downside exposure (losses greater than 40%) if the ending price is below the downside threshold. The Bank's estimated value at pricing was $956.82 per security. Distribution was arranged through Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC.
