The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $19.3 million of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 26, 2029, linked to Broadcom Inc. common stock. These notes can pay a quarterly contingent coupon of $32.20 per $1,000 (12.88% per annum) for each determination date on which Broadcom’s closing price is at or above 50% of the initial share price of $320.05. If on any non-final determination date the stock closes at or above 100% of the initial price, the notes are automatically redeemed at $1,000 plus the applicable coupon and any unpaid coupons under the memory feature. If held to maturity and the final price is below the 50% downside threshold of $160.025, repayment is reduced 1-for-1 with the stock’s decline and can fall below 50% of principal, down to zero. The notes do not participate in any stock upside, are unsecured senior debt subject to BNS credit risk, will not be listed, and have an initial estimated value of $965.60 per $1,000.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $26,495,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 26, 2029, linked to the common stock of Tesla, Inc. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and pays a contingent quarterly coupon of $35.125 per security (equivalent to 14.05% per annum) only if Tesla’s closing price on the relevant determination date is at or above 50.00% of the initial share price of $449.06, a downside threshold of $224.53.
If on any determination date before maturity Tesla’s price is at or above 100.00% of the initial share price, the notes are automatically redeemed for principal plus the applicable coupon and any unpaid past coupons under the “memory” feature. If the notes are not called and the final share price is below the downside threshold, investors receive the $1,000 principal multiplied by the share performance factor (final price divided by initial price), which can be less than half of principal and as low as zero, meaning substantial or total loss of invested capital. The securities are senior unsecured debt of BNS, are not listed on any exchange, and all payments are subject to BNS credit risk.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $2,480,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 28, 2027, linked to the common stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. Each $1,000 security can pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $28.00 (11.20% per annum) if Meta’s closing price on the determination date is at or above 70.00% of the initial share price of $658.76.
The notes are automatically redeemed at par plus the applicable coupon (including any unpaid “memory” coupons) if Meta closes at or above 100.00% of the initial share price on any non-final determination date. If not called and Meta’s final share price is below the 70.00% downside threshold of $461.132, investors receive 1.5180 Meta shares per security (plus cash for any fraction), which could be worth far less than $1,000, including a total loss of principal.
The securities are senior unsecured obligations of BNS, are not listed on any exchange, have an estimated value of $970.60 per $1,000 at pricing, and expose investors to BNS credit risk, market volatility in Meta stock, limited liquidity and complex tax treatment.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $3,320,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities linked to the common stock of Microsoft Corporation, maturing on January 28, 2027. These senior unsecured notes offer a quarterly contingent coupon of $24.70 per $1,000 security (9.88% per annum) only if Microsoft’s closing price on a determination date is at least 80% of the $465.95 initial share price ($372.76 downside threshold), with a “memory” feature that can pay previously missed coupons later.
If on any non-final determination date Microsoft closes at or above 100% of the initial share price ($465.95 call threshold), the notes are automatically redeemed at $1,000 plus the due coupon and any unpaid coupons, and no further payments are made. If the notes are not called and Microsoft’s final price is below the downside threshold, investors receive about 2.1462 Microsoft shares per note (plus cash for any fraction), which may be worth far less than $1,000 and could result in a total loss of principal.
Investors do not participate in any upside of Microsoft beyond the coupons, forgo dividends, face limited or no secondary market liquidity, and bear full credit risk of BNS. The estimated value on the pricing date is $975.90 per $1,000, below the issue price, reflecting selling, structuring and hedging costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $19,476,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 26, 2029, linked to Palantir Technologies Inc. common stock. Each $1,000 security can pay a quarterly contingent coupon of $41.625 (16.65% per year) if Palantir’s closing price is at or above 50% of the initial share price of $169.60, with missed coupons potentially paid later under a “memory” feature. The notes are auto-called at par plus the coupon if Palantir closes at or above $169.60 on any non-final determination date. If held to maturity and Palantir finishes below 50% of the initial price ($84.80), repayment is reduced 1-for-1 with the stock’s decline and can fall to zero, so principal is fully at risk. The securities are senior unsecured BNS obligations, not listed on any exchange, and have an estimated value of $969 per $1,000 at pricing.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering unsecured Buffered Index-Linked Notes tied to the S&P 500® Index, maturing in June 2027. The notes pay no interest and all value comes from how the index performs between the trade date and a single valuation date near maturity.
Holders get upside exposure to the index, but gains are capped by a maximum upside payment amount expected to be at least $1,122.50 per $1,000 note. On the downside, the structure provides a 10% buffer: if the index falls by up to 10%, investors gain the same amount in absolute terms, but if it falls more than 10%, principal is reduced point-for-point beyond that buffer and up to 90% of principal can be lost.
Payments depend entirely on the credit of The Bank of Nova Scotia. The notes will not be listed, may have limited or no secondary market, and their initial estimated value (expected between $925.00 and $965.00 per $1,000) will be below the issue price due to structuring and hedging costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured, equity-linked securities that pay a fixed monthly coupon and are linked to the common stock of Tesla, Inc.
The notes have a face amount of $1,000 per security and a coupon rate to be set on the pricing date at no less than 12.50% per annum, paid monthly until automatic call or maturity. From August 2026 to January 2027, if Tesla’s stock closing price on any monthly calculation day is at or above the starting price, the notes are automatically called for $1,000 per security plus a final coupon.
If the notes are not called, investors receive $1,000 per security at maturity on February 19, 2027 only if the final Tesla price is at least 60% of the starting price. If the final price is below this downside threshold, the maturity payment equals $1,000 multiplied by the performance factor, so investors lose more than 40% and possibly all principal. The Bank’s estimated value is between $936.53 and $966.53 per $1,000 security. The notes are unsecured obligations subject to Bank of Nova Scotia credit risk, are not CDIC or FDIC insured, and will not be listed on an exchange, so liquidity may be limited.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior, unsecured Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the least performing of the Nikkei 225 Index and the S&P 500 Index, maturing on or about January 30, 2031. The Notes pay a contingent coupon only if, on a quarterly observation date, the closing level of each index is at or above its coupon barrier, set at 70% of its initial level. The contingent coupon rate will be at least 9.65% per annum.
The Notes may be automatically called after six months if both indices are at or above their initial levels on an observation date, in which case investors receive principal plus the applicable coupon and the Notes terminate. If not called, and on the final valuation date both indices are at or above their downside thresholds (also 70% of initial levels), investors receive full principal back. If any index finishes below its downside threshold, repayment is reduced by the decline of the worst-performing index, and investors could lose their entire investment.
The minimum denomination is $10 per Note (minimum $1,000). The initial estimated value is expected to be between $9.13 and $9.43 per $10 Note, below the $10 issue price. Payments depend on BNS’s credit and the Notes are not insured by any government agency.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering unsecured “Digital Notes” linked to the S&P 500® Index with a term of about 13 to 15 months. The notes pay no interest and are designed to return a fixed maximum payment amount expected to be between $1,080.40 and $1,094.40 for each $1,000 of principal if, on the valuation date, the index is at least 90% of its initial level. If the S&P 500® falls more than 10% from the initial level, repayment is reduced so that investors lose about 1.1111% of principal for every 1% additional decline, up to a total loss of principal. The initial estimated value is expected to range from $940 to $970 per $1,000, reflecting dealer compensation, hedging costs and the bank’s internal funding rate. The notes will not be listed, provide no dividends, are subject to The Bank of Nova Scotia’s credit risk, and may have limited or no secondary market liquidity.
The Bank of Nova Scotia plans to issue unsecured Autocallable Contingent Coupon Notes due February 9, 2029, linked to the common stock of Intuitive Surgical, Inc. These three-year notes can be automatically called on scheduled observation dates if the stock’s closing value is at or above its initial level, returning principal plus the applicable contingent coupon.
If not called, investors receive contingent coupons of at least $21.875 per $1,000 note (at least 8.75% per annum) only when the stock closes at or above 70% of its initial value on observation dates. At maturity, if the final stock value is at or above this 70% barrier, principal is repaid; otherwise repayment is reduced one-for-one with the stock’s decline, with up to 100% loss of principal. The notes are senior unsecured obligations of Scotiabank, not listed on an exchange, sold in $1,000 minimums, and have an initial estimated value between $933.81 and $963.81 per $1,000.
