The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $11,878,250 of Trigger Autocallable GEARS, senior unsecured notes linked to the Russell 2000 Index, maturing on February 18, 2031. The notes may be automatically called after about one year if the index closes at or above the initial level.
If called, investors receive $11.10 per $10 note, reflecting an 11.00% call return, and the investment ends. If not called and the index is above the initial level at maturity, investors gain leveraged upside with 1.55x participation in positive index returns.
If at maturity the index is at or above 75% of the initial level, principal is repaid. If it finishes below 75%, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the index loss and can fall to zero. The notes pay no interest, offer no dividends, are not listed, and all payments depend on BNS’s creditworthiness.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $15,412,410 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the worst performer of the S&P 500 Index and EURO STOXX 50 Index, maturing in February 2031. Investors receive a quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.10% only if both indexes stay at or above 70% of their initial levels on each observation date.
The notes may be called early quarterly after six months if both indexes are at or above their initial levels, returning principal plus the due coupon. If not called and any index finishes below its 70% downside threshold at maturity, repayment is reduced in line with the worst index’s loss, up to a total loss of principal. The securities are senior unsecured obligations of BNS, are not insured, are not listed on any exchange, have limited liquidity, and had an initial estimated value of $9.468 per $10 note, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $7,221,500 of Trigger Autocallable GEARS linked to the Nikkei 225® Index due February 18, 2031. Each Security has a $10 principal, a minimum investment of $1,000, and an initial level of 56,941.97.
If the closing level on the observation date (February 22, 2027) is at or above the autocall barrier (the initial level), the issuer will automatically call the notes and pay a call return of 18.00% (call price = $11.80 per Security). If not called, maturity payoff on February 18, 2031 depends on the underlying return: positive returns receive the upside gearing of 1.65; if the final level is below the downside threshold (42,706.48, 75.00% of the initial level) investors can suffer losses up to 100% of principal. Payments are subject to BNS credit risk. BNS’s initial estimated value was $9.542 per Security.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $5,138,000 of Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to NVIDIA common stock, maturing on August 17, 2027. These unsecured senior notes pay a monthly contingent coupon of $9.417 per $1,000 (about 11.30% per annum) only when NVIDIA’s closing price is at least 53.00% of the initial price of $186.94 on the relevant observation date.
Starting in August 2026, the notes are automatically called if NVIDIA’s price on a call observation date is at or above the initial price, returning $1,000 plus the applicable coupon. If the notes are not called and the final price is at least 53.00% of the initial price, investors receive $1,000 plus the final coupon. If the final price is below 53.00%, investors receive NVIDIA shares equal to $1,000 divided by $186.94 (or cash if under one share), whose value at that time will be under 53.00% of principal, implying a substantial or total loss.
The notes will not be listed on an exchange and all payments depend on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia. The initial estimated value is $958.32 per $1,000, below the issue price, reflecting internal funding rates, hedging costs, underwriting commissions and structuring fees that may pressure secondary-market values.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Buffered Enhanced Participation Basket-Linked Notes tied to a weighted equity basket: EURO STOXX 50 (40%), TOPIX (25%), FTSE 100 (17%), Swiss Market Index (11%) and S&P/ASX 200 (7%). The notes pay no interest and mature in about 23–26 months.
At maturity, investors receive $1,000 plus leveraged upside (participation rate between 112% and 131%) if the basket finishes above its initial level. Principal is protected only for declines up to 10%; beyond that, losses are amplified by a buffer rate of about 111.11%, and investors can lose all principal.
The initial estimated value is expected between $944.04 and $974.04 per $1,000, below the 100% issue price, reflecting fees and hedging costs. The notes are unsecured obligations of Scotiabank, not insured, not bail‑inable under the CDIC Act, and are not listed, so liquidity may be limited.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing senior unsecured market-linked notes tied to Tesla, Inc. stock that pay a fixed 12.50% annual coupon and expose investors to contingent downside risk. Each security has a $1,000 face amount and an original offering price of $1,000.
The notes may be automatically called monthly from August 2026 to January 2027 if Tesla’s stock closes at or above the $417.44 starting price, returning face value plus the final coupon. If not called, investors receive $1,000 at maturity only if the final stock price is at or above the $250.464 downside threshold.
If the final Tesla price is below that downside threshold, the maturity payment is $1,000 multiplied by the stock’s performance factor, so losses can exceed 40% and reach 100% of principal. The Bank’s estimated value is $968.50 per security, and there is no stock upside or dividend participation.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured market-linked notes tied to the lowest performing of Datadog, Dell Technologies and Intel, maturing in February 2029.

The notes may be automatically called monthly from August 2026 to January 2029 if the lowest stock is at or above its starting price, returning face value plus due coupons.

The Bank’s estimated value is $944.92 per $1,000, the notes are not listed, and all payments are subject to Scotiabank’s credit risk.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing senior unsecured market-linked notes tied to the common stock of Oklo Inc., maturing in February 2027. These securities pay a contingent coupon of 29.25% per annum, but only if Oklo’s stock closes at or above 50% of the $65.69 starting price on each monthly calculation day, with a memory feature that can repay missed coupons later.
The notes are auto-callable monthly from August 2026 to January 2027 if Oklo’s share price is at or above the starting price, returning the $1,000 face amount plus the applicable coupon and any unpaid coupons. If the notes are not called and Oklo’s final price is at least 50% of the starting price, holders receive the $1,000 face amount at maturity; if it is below that level, repayment is reduced in line with the stock’s decline and can result in losing more than 50%, up to all, of principal.
The securities are offered at $1,000 per note, with an estimated value of $931.37 as of the pricing date and total offering size of $2,281,000. They are not listed on an exchange and all payments depend on the credit of The Bank of Nova Scotia.

The Notes may be automatically called on March 5, 2027 if Amazon’s closing value is at least 100% of its initial value, paying back principal plus a call premium of at least $191 (19.10%) per Note. If not called and the final value is at least the initial value, holders receive principal plus the greater of a fixed digital return of at least 38.20% or the stock’s positive performance. A 15% buffer protects against moderate declines, but below 85% of the initial value losses increase at roughly 1.1765% of principal for each additional 1% drop, up to total loss. The Notes pay no interest, provide no dividends, carry full credit risk of the Bank, are not insured, and will not be listed. The initial estimated value is expected between $951.40 and $981.40 per $1,000.
