The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $5,725,000 of digital notes linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index, maturing October 22, 2027. The notes pay no interest and the return depends entirely on index performance between January 20, 2026 and October 20, 2027.
If the final index level is at least 85.00% of the initial level of 5,892.08, holders receive a fixed $1,150.00 per $1,000 note, a 15% gain. If the final level is below 85.00%, repayment is reduced using a buffer rate of approximately 117.65%, so losses accelerate below the 15.00% threshold and can reach 100% of principal.
The notes are senior unsecured obligations of The Bank of Nova Scotia, not insured by CDIC or FDIC, and will not be listed on an exchange. The initial estimated value is $973.50 per $1,000, below the issue price, reflecting internal funding and hedging costs, and secondary market liquidity is expected to be limited.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $5,812,000 of senior unsecured Market Linked Securities at $1,000 per note under its Series A program. The notes run to January 25, 2029 and are linked to the lowest performing of Broadcom, Alphabet Class A, Meta Platforms and NVIDIA.
Investors may receive a 19.35% per annum contingent coupon, paid monthly only if on each calculation day the lowest stock is at or above 60% of its starting price, with a memory feature for missed coupons. From April 2026 to December 2028, the notes are auto‑callable at par plus coupons if the lowest stock is at or above its starting price.
If not called, principal is protected at maturity only if the lowest stock finishes at or above 60% of its starting price; otherwise repayment is $1,000 multiplied by that stock’s performance, so losses can exceed 40% and reach 100%. The notes do not participate in any stock upside or pay dividends, carry the credit risk of Scotiabank, have an estimated value of $929.79 per $1,000, and are not exchange‑listed.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering principal-at-risk Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities linked to the common stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD), maturing on or about February 2, 2029. Each $1,000 security can pay a quarterly contingent coupon of $36.75, equivalent to 14.70% per annum, for any determination date on which AMD’s closing price is at least 50.00% of the initial share price. A “memory” feature allows previously missed coupons to be paid later if the threshold is met.
If on any non-final determination date AMD’s price is at least 100.00% of the initial share price, the note is automatically called and repays $1,000 plus the applicable coupon and any unpaid coupons; investors then receive no further payments. At maturity, if the note has not been called and AMD is at or above 50.00% of the initial price, investors receive $1,000 plus due coupons. If AMD ends below 50.00%, repayment is reduced 1-for-1 with AMD’s decline and can fall to zero, meaning loss of the entire investment.
The securities are senior unsecured debt of BNS, carry full issuer credit risk, will not be listed on an exchange, and have an estimated initial value between $936.44 and $966.44 per $1,000 issue price, reflecting embedded fees and funding costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities linked to the common stock of Vertiv Holdings Co, maturing on or about February 2, 2029. Each security has a stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000.
The notes can pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $41.275 per security (equivalent to 16.51% per annum) on any determination date when Vertiv’s closing price is at least 50% of the initial share price, with a “memory” feature that can make up missed coupons later if the condition is met. If on any non-final determination date the stock is at or above 100% of the initial share price, the notes are automatically called for $1,000 plus applicable coupons, ending all future payments.
At maturity, if the final share price is at least 50% of the initial price, investors receive $1,000 plus any due coupons. If it is below 50%, the payoff is $1,000 multiplied by the share performance factor, so losses mirror Vertiv’s decline and can reach 100% of principal. The notes do not participate in any stock upside and pay no dividends. All payments depend on BNS’s credit, and the initial estimated value per $1,000 is expected to be between $932.09 and $962.09, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to the Russell 2000® Index, with a term of about five years and quarterly observation dates after 12 months. The Notes are automatically called if the index closes at or above its initial level on any observation date, in which case holders receive a predefined call price that combines principal and a call return that increases over time, based on a call return rate between 8.05% and 9.05% per annum.
If the Notes are not called and the final index level is at or above 75% of the initial level, investors receive the $10 principal per Note at maturity. If the final level is below this downside threshold, repayment is reduced in line with the index decline, up to a total loss of principal. The Notes pay no interest, are not listed, carry significant liquidity and market risks, and all payments are subject to BNS credit risk. The initial estimated value is expected to be between $9.262 and $9.562 per $10 Note, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering unsecured, unsubordinated Autocallable Contingent Coupon Notes with Memory Coupon linked to the common stock of Cipher Mining Inc. The Notes have a term of about one year and a minimum denomination of $1,000 per Note.
Investors can receive contingent coupons of $85.00 per Note (equivalent to 34.00% per annum) on specified observation dates if Cipher Mining’s stock closes at or above the Contingent Coupon Barrier Value of $8.86, which is 50.00% of the $17.72 Initial Value. Missed coupons are not lost if a later observation date meets the barrier, but no coupons are ever paid if the Final Value is below the barrier.
If the Notes are not automatically called and the Final Value is at or above the $8.86 Barrier Value, investors receive their $1,000 principal back plus any due coupons. If the Final Value is below the Barrier Value, repayment is $1,000 + ($1,000 × Reference Asset Return), creating one-for-one downside exposure and potential loss of up to 100% of principal. The initial estimated value is expected to be between $892.44 and $902.44 per $1,000 Note, there is no exchange listing, and all payments depend on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $4,480,000 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the S&P 500 Index, maturing in January 2028. These senior unsecured notes pay a 9.00% per annum contingent coupon only if the index is at or above a coupon barrier set at 75% of the initial level on each quarterly observation date.
The notes can be called automatically after six months if the S&P 500 closes at or above its initial level on an observation date, in which case investors receive principal plus the applicable coupon and the product terminates. If the notes are not called and the index is at or above the 75% downside threshold at maturity, principal is repaid, but if it ends below that level, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the index decline and investors can lose all of their investment.
The notes do not pay dividends, have no upside participation beyond contingent coupons, will not be listed on an exchange, and all payments depend on the creditworthiness of BNS since they are not insured or bail-inable.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $3,000,000 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 Index and EURO STOXX 50 Index, maturing January 25, 2036. Each $10 Note pays a 7.80% per annum contingent coupon (about $0.195 per quarter) only when both indices close at or above 75% of their initial levels on an observation date, and can be automatically called quarterly after 12 months if both are at or above their initial levels, returning principal plus that period’s coupon.
If the Notes are not called and, at maturity, either index finishes below its 75% downside threshold, repayment is reduced in line with the loss of the worst-performing index, up to a complete loss of principal. The initial estimated value is $9.062 per $10 Note, below the issue price, and investors are fully exposed to BNS credit risk and limited secondary market liquidity, along with complex U.S. tax treatment.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $1,950,000 of capped buffered return notes linked to the S&P 500® Index, maturing on January 24, 2031. Each note has a $1,000 principal amount, no coupons, and all payments are made at maturity.
If the index rises, investors participate in the positive price return up to a maximum return of 57.75%, or $1,577.50 per $1,000 note. If the final index value is at or above the 20% downside buffer (80% of the initial level), investors receive full principal back. Below that buffer, losses match further index declines and can reach up to 80% of principal.
The notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Bank, not insured by CDIC or FDIC, and will not be listed on an exchange, so liquidity may be limited. The initial estimated value is $947.32 per $1,000, lower than the issue price, reflecting internal funding and hedging costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 27, 2028 linked to the common stock of Carvana Co. Each security has a stated principal amount of $1,000 and can pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $54.375 per security, equivalent to 21.75% per annum, for any determination date on which Carvana’s closing price is at or above 50.00% of the initial share price, the downside threshold price of $227.51.
If on any non-final determination date Carvana’s closing price is at or above the call threshold price of $455.02, equal to 100.00% of the initial share price, the notes are automatically redeemed for principal plus the applicable coupon, including any previously unpaid coupons under the memory feature. If the notes are not called and the final share price is below the downside threshold, repayment of principal is reduced 1-to-1 with Carvana’s decline and can fall to zero, so investors may lose their entire investment.
All payments depend on BNS’s credit. The securities are not listed, may have limited liquidity, and have an estimated value on the pricing date between $936.62 and $966.62 per $1,000 issue price, reflecting selling, structuring and hedging costs.
