The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $3,800,000 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to JPMorgan Chase & Co. common stock, maturing on January 25, 2029. Each Note has a $10 principal amount and pays a 9.00% per annum contingent coupon (quarterly) only if JPM’s closing price on the observation date is at or above the coupon barrier.
The initial level is $312.47, with both the coupon barrier and downside threshold set at $228.73, which is 73.20% of the initial level. The Notes are automatically called if, starting six months after issuance, JPM’s price on an observation date is at or above the initial level; in that case, investors receive principal plus the applicable coupon and the Notes terminate.
If the Notes are not called and JPM’s final level is at or above the downside threshold, investors receive only their $10 principal per Note at maturity. If the final level is below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced dollar-for-dollar with JPM’s decline, via $10 × (1 + underlying return), and investors can lose up to their entire investment. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of BNS, are not insured by CDIC or FDIC, will not be listed on an exchange, and have an initial estimated value of $9.60 per $10 issue price, reflecting fees and hedging costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes maturing around January 25, 2036, linked to the Russell 2000 Index and the EURO STOXX 50 Index. Each Note has a $10 principal amount, with a minimum investment of 100 Notes.
The Notes pay a 7.80% per annum contingent coupon only if, on a quarterly observation date, both indices close at or above their coupon barriers, set at 75% of initial levels
The Notes are automatically called if, on any quarterly observation date after 12 months, both indices are at or above their initial levels, returning principal plus that period’s coupon and ending the investment. If not called and, at maturity, both indices are at or above their downside thresholds (also 75% of initial), investors receive full principal back.
If at maturity any index is below its downside threshold, the repayment is reduced in line with the worst-performing index’s decline, and investors can lose all principal. The initial estimated value is between $8.736 and $9.036 per $10 Note, below the public issue price, and all payments depend on BNS’s credit.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $820,000 of Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to the common stock of GE Vernova Inc., maturing on July 21, 2027. Investors receive a monthly contingent coupon of $11.209 per $1,000 note (about 1.1209% per month, or up to roughly 13.45% per year) only when GE Vernova’s share price on an observation date is at least 50.00% of the initial price of $681.55. The notes may be automatically called starting in October 2026 if the stock closes at or above the initial price, in which case investors receive $1,000 per note plus the relevant coupon. If the notes are not called and the final price is below 50.00% of the initial price, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the stock’s decline, and investors can lose up to their entire principal. All payments depend on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia and the notes will not be listed on any exchange.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering autocallable contingent coupon notes linked to the worst performer of Apple, Amazon and Morgan Stanley stock. The notes pay a contingent coupon of at least $32.50 per $1,000 note (at least 13.00% per annum) on quarterly dates only if each stock is at or above its contingent coupon barrier, set at 60.00% of its initial value. If on a call observation date all three stocks are at or above their initial values, the notes are automatically called and repay principal plus that period’s coupon.
If the notes are not called and, at maturity in January 2029, the worst-performing stock is at or above 60.00% of its initial value, investors receive full principal back (plus any due coupon). If the worst performer is below its barrier, repayment is reduced one-for-one with that stock’s loss and investors can lose up to 100% of principal. The notes are unsecured obligations of Scotiabank, not listed on any exchange, and the initial estimated value of each $1,000 note (between $898.58 and $928.58) is lower than the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering market-linked, senior unsecured notes tied to the lowest performing of Broadcom, Alphabet Class C and Netflix shares. Each security has a $1,000 face amount, no interest, no principal protection and no exchange listing, with total original offering proceeds of $5,598,000.
After about one year, if the lowest performing stock is at or above its starting price, the notes are automatically called for 37.50% above face value. If not called, at maturity investors get 300% of any gain in the lowest stock, an “absolute return” if it is down but no more than 50%, or full downside exposure if it falls below 50% of its starting price.
The bank’s estimated value is $883.40 (88.340%) per security, reflecting selling costs and hedging profits, which may pressure secondary prices. All payments depend on Bank of Nova Scotia’s credit and the notes are not insured by Canadian or U.S. deposit insurance schemes.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering market-linked senior notes that pay contingent coupons tied to NVIDIA’s common stock. Each security has a $1,000 face amount and offers a 15.00% per annum coupon, paid monthly only if NVIDIA’s stock closes at or above 70% of the starting price (the coupon threshold) on the relevant calculation day. If the stock is below that level, no coupon is paid for that month, and it is possible to receive no coupons over the entire term.
The notes can be automatically called on monthly dates from July 2026 to December 2026 if NVIDIA’s stock closes at or above the $186.23 starting price, in which case holders receive the face amount plus the final coupon and the investment ends early. If not called, principal is protected at maturity only if the final stock price is at or above the $130.361 downside threshold (70% of the starting price); below that level, investors are fully exposed to NVIDIA’s decline and can lose more than 30%, up to all principal. The Bank’s estimated value is $964.61 per $1,000 note, the securities are unsecured, not insured by CDIC or FDIC, will not be listed on an exchange, and involve complex tax and liquidity risks.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing senior unsecured Market Linked Securities tied to the common stock of Oracle Corporation, offering a contingent coupon and exposing investors to potential loss of principal. Each security has a $1,000 face amount, with a contingent coupon rate of 12.35% per annum paid quarterly if Oracle’s stock closes at or above a coupon threshold on the applicable calculation day.
The notes are auto-callable from July 2026 to October 2028 if the stock closes at or above the starting price of $191.09, in which case investors receive the face amount plus accrued and unpaid contingent coupons. If the notes are not called and Oracle’s stock is below the downside threshold of $95.545 (50% of the starting price) on the final calculation day, investors lose more than half, and possibly all, of principal. The estimated value at pricing is $948.20 per $1,000 note, reflecting selling costs and hedging profits, and the securities are unsecured obligations subject to the Bank’s credit risk and will not be listed on an exchange.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the least performing of the Nasdaq-100 Index and the EURO STOXX 50 Index, maturing around January 31, 2036. The notes may pay quarterly contingent coupons at an annual rate of 7.00% to 7.50% only when each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, set at 75% of its initial level.
The notes can be automatically called after 12 months if both indices are at or above their initial levels on an observation date, returning principal plus the applicable coupon, with no further payments. If not called and any index finishes below its downside threshold (also 75% of initial), repayment at maturity is reduced in line with the worst index’s percentage loss, and investors can lose their entire principal.
The initial estimated value is expected between $8.641 and $8.941 per $10 note, below the public issue price, reflecting structuring and hedging costs. The notes will not be listed, may have limited liquidity, and all payments depend on BNS’s creditworthiness.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured market-linked securities tied to the common stock of Oklo Inc., due January 22, 2027. Each security has a $1,000 face amount and may pay a 30.00% per annum contingent coupon, calculated monthly, but only when Oklo’s stock closing price on the relevant calculation day is at or above the coupon threshold of $47.475, which is 50% of the $94.95 starting price. Missed coupons can be paid later under a “memory” feature if the threshold is subsequently met.
The notes are auto-callable on monthly dates from July 2026 to December 2026 if Oklo’s stock closes at or above the starting price, in which case investors receive $1,000 plus the final and any unpaid coupons. If not called, at maturity investors receive $1,000 only if the final stock price is at or above the downside threshold of $47.475; otherwise the payoff is $1,000 multiplied by the stock’s performance, so a drop of more than 50% leads to loss of more than half, up to all, of principal.
The Bank’s estimated value is $931.02 per $1,000 security (93.102%) due to embedded selling, structuring and hedging costs. The securities do not participate in any upside of Oklo’s stock, pay no dividends, are not listed on any exchange, and all payments depend on the credit of The Bank of Nova Scotia.
Scotiabank, through The Bank of Nova Scotia, expects net income of approximately CAD $81 million in Q1 2026 from its ownership interest in KeyCorp.
