If not called, maturity payment depends on the final price on the final valuation date (May 27, 2027): if final price ≥ 70.00% of initial, you receive principal (plus any final contingent coupon); if final price < 70.00% of initial, you receive $1,000 × (1 + reference asset return), exposing principal to downside (you lose 1% per 1% decline versus the initial price).
