The Bank of Nova Scotia issued $1,540,000 of Dual Directional Capped Buffered Notes linked to the S&P 500® Index. The notes mature on March 8, 2028 and pay only a single cash payment at maturity based on the Reference Asset Return, subject to a 17.94% cap on upside.
If the Final Value is at least 80.00% of the Initial Value you receive positive payment (including a capped upside or a positive payoff when the index declines but stays at or above the buffer). If the Final Value is below 80.00%, losses are leveraged at a 1.25 factor and you may lose up to 100% of principal. The Original Issue Price was $1,000 per note (aggregate $1,540,000), and the Bank received 98.50% of proceeds after placement fees.

The notes provide 1-to-1 upside participation subject to a 12.00% cap (Capped Value = $11.20), an absolute-return buffer for declines up to a Threshold Value set between 93.00% and 88.00% of the Starting Value, and downside exposure beyond that threshold with up to 93.00% to 88.00% of principal at risk. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk and will occur at maturity.
The Bank of Nova Scotia priced $26,376,000 of Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to NVIDIA Corporation stock due April 1, 2027. Each note has a $1,000 principal amount, an initial price of $177.19, a monthly contingent coupon of $10.125 (1.0125% monthly; up to 12.15% per annum) payable only if the closing price on an observation date is at or above the coupon barrier of 58.00% of the initial price. The notes are automatically called if NVIDIA’s closing price on a call observation date (August 2026–February 2027) is equal to or greater than the initial price; upon automatic call investors receive $1,000 plus the contingent coupon for that date. If not called and the final price is below 58.00% of the initial price, holders receive a share delivery amount equal to $1,000 divided by the initial price, and will not receive a contingent coupon, exposing holders to potential substantial principal loss. The Bank’s initial estimated value was $965.01 per $1,000 principal amount; original issue price was 100.00%, with underwriting commissions of 2.15%.
