The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $24,651,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 22, 2028, linked to Alphabet Inc. Class A common stock. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and may pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $25.60 per security, equivalent to 10.24% per annum, when Alphabet’s closing price on a determination date is at or above 60% of the initial share price of $307.16, a downside threshold of $184.296.
If on any non-final determination date Alphabet’s price is at or above the call threshold of 100% of the initial share price, the notes are automatically redeemed at par plus that period’s coupon, and no further payments are made. If the notes are not called and the final share price is below the downside threshold, repayment of principal is reduced 1‑for‑1 with Alphabet’s decline from the initial share price, and the payment at maturity can be substantially less than 60% of principal, down to zero. The securities are senior unsecured obligations of BNS, are not listed, and carried an estimated value on the pricing date of $968.50 per $1,000, below the issue price due to selling, structuring and hedging costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $21,652,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 22, 2028 linked to the common stock of GE Vernova Inc. These senior unsecured notes pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $28.375 per $1,000 (equivalent to 11.35% per annum) for any determination date on which the GE Vernova closing price is at or above the downside threshold of $329.14, or 50% of the $658.28 initial share price, with a “memory” feature that can catch up missed coupons.
If on any non-final determination date the stock is at or above the call threshold of $658.28, the notes are automatically redeemed at par plus the applicable coupon (and any unpaid coupons). If held to maturity and the final share price is below the downside threshold, investors receive the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor, exposing them 1-to-1 to GE Vernova’s decline and potentially losing their entire investment. Investors do not participate in any stock upside beyond coupons and forgo dividends.
All payments depend on BNS’s credit; the notes are not insured or secured. The issue price is $1,000 per note, while the estimated value on the pricing date is $957.60, and the securities are not expected to be listed, with any secondary liquidity dependent on the dealer.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $537,000 of Buffered Index‑Linked Notes tied to the S&P 500 Index, maturing March 24, 2027. The notes have a $1,000 denomination, no interest payments and are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Bank. At maturity, investors receive upside equal to the S&P 500 price return up to a maximum payment of $1,120 per $1,000, capping gains at 12%.
If the index is flat or down by up to 10%, the payoff equals the absolute index return, giving positive returns on modest declines. Below a 10% decline, investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% drop beyond that buffer, with up to 90% of principal at risk. The notes do not pay dividends or include total return. The initial estimated value is $983.61 per $1,000, below the issue price, and underwriting commissions of 0.50% reduce net proceeds to $534,315.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $224,000 of Digital Notes linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index, maturing December 23, 2027. These unsecured senior notes pay no interest and at maturity return either the principal or a capped digital payoff.
For each $1,000 note, investors receive $1,107.50 if on the valuation date both indices are at or above their initial levels of 2,529.425 (Russell 2000) and 6,834.50 (S&P 500). If either index finishes below its initial level, the payout is limited to $1,000, so upside is capped while downside is limited to loss of time value and credit risk. The notes will not be listed, the initial estimated value is $976.64 per $1,000, and investors are exposed to the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia and to limited liquidity and complex tax treatment.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $7,151,000 of Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to NVIDIA Corporation common stock, maturing June 24, 2027. The notes are issued in $1,000 denominations at 100% of principal and pay a monthly contingent coupon of $9.209 per $1,000 (0.9209% per month, up to about 11.05% per year) only when NVIDIA’s closing price is at or above 53.00% of the initial price of $180.99 on an observation date.
Starting in June 2026, the notes are automatically called if NVIDIA closes at or above the $180.99 initial price on a call observation date, returning $1,000 plus the applicable coupon, with no further payments. If the notes are not called and the final price on June 21, 2027 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% of the initial price, investors receive NVIDIA shares equal to $1,000 divided by $180.99 (or cash if less than one share), whose value will be under 53.00% of principal, meaning a substantial or total loss is possible. The notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of The Bank of Nova Scotia, not insured, not listed on any exchange, and had an initial estimated value of $972.48 per $1,000, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $57,000 of Capped Buffered Enhanced Participation Notes linked to the Russell 2000 Index, maturing September 23, 2027. Each note has a $1,000 principal amount and pays no interest. At maturity, if the index is above the initial level of 2,529.425, holders earn 150% of the index gain, but the payout is capped at $1,222.50 per $1,000.
If the index is flat or down by up to 10%, investors receive their $1,000 principal. If it falls by more than 10%, principal is reduced dollar‑for‑dollar beyond that buffer, with up to 90% loss possible. The notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Bank, are not insured by any deposit insurer, and will not be listed on an exchange.
The initial estimated value is $972.32 per $1,000, below the issue price, reflecting internal funding and structuring costs. Underwriting commissions are 0.70%, so net proceeds to the Bank are $56,601 on the $57,000 aggregate principal amount.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $545,000 of Capped Buffered Index-Linked Notes tied to the least performing of the Russell 2000 Index and S&P 500 Index, maturing on June 24, 2027. The notes pay no interest and are unsecured senior debt of the bank.
At maturity, investors receive $1,000 plus 120% of the least performing index’s gain if both indexes finish above their initial levels, capped at a maximum payment of $1,260 per $1,000. If any index is at or below its initial level but at least 90% of its initial level, investors earn 120% of the absolute decline, again on the least performing index.
If any index ends below 90% of its initial level, investors lose principal dollar-for-dollar beyond the 10% buffer and can lose up to 90% of principal. The initial estimated value is $969.22 per $1,000, below the issue price, reflecting fees, hedging costs, and the bank’s internal funding rate. Any payment depends entirely on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $19,766,000 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000® Index, the S&P 500® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index, maturing January 2, 2036.
The Notes pay a contingent coupon at a 7.70% per annum rate only if, on each quarterly observation date, every index closes at or above its coupon barrier, set at 75.00% of its initial level. They can be automatically called after 12 months if all three indices are at or above their initial levels, in which case holders receive principal plus the applicable contingent coupon and the Notes terminate early.
If the Notes are not called and, on the final valuation date, each index is at or above its downside threshold (also 75.00% of its initial level), investors receive full principal back. If any index finishes below its downside threshold, the maturity payment is reduced based on the decline of the worst-performing index, and holders can lose some or all of their principal. The initial estimated value is $9.11 per $10 Note, and all payments are unsecured and subject to BNS credit risk.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $6,760,000 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the common stock of Microsoft Corporation. These senior unsecured notes pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 8.15% per annum only when Microsoft’s closing stock price on a monthly observation date is at or above the coupon barrier of $339.44, which is 70% of the initial level of $484.92. The notes are automatically called if, on any observation date after three months and before maturity, Microsoft closes at or above the initial level; in that case, investors receive $10 per note plus the applicable coupon and the investment ends early.
If the notes are not called and Microsoft’s final level on the December 22, 2027 valuation date is at or above the downside threshold of $339.44, investors receive full principal back at the December 28, 2027 maturity. If the final level is below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced dollar-for-dollar with Microsoft’s percentage decline, and investors can lose their entire principal. The notes will not be listed, have limited liquidity, pay no dividends, and all payments depend on BNS’s credit. The initial estimated value is $9.77 per $10 note, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering principal-at-risk, auto-callable structured notes linked to the common stock of Vertiv Holdings Co, maturing on or about December 31, 2029. These senior unsecured notes can pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $28.10 per $1,000 (11.24% per annum) for each observation date when Vertiv’s closing price is at or above 50% of the initial share price, with a “memory” feature that can make up missed coupons later if conditions are met.
The notes are automatically redeemed early if Vertiv’s price on a non-final determination date is at least 100% of the initial share price, returning principal plus the applicable coupon and any unpaid coupons. If held to maturity and the final share price is at or above the 50% downside threshold, investors receive principal plus all due coupons. If the final price is below the threshold, repayment is based on a leveraged downside: investors lose 2% of principal for every 1% Vertiv finishes below the threshold, up to a total loss of principal.
The securities do not pay dividends on Vertiv stock, will not be listed on any exchange, and all payments depend on BNS’s credit. The preliminary estimated value is $915.06–$945.06 per $1,000 note, below the issue price due to selling, structuring and hedging costs.
