The Bank of Nova Scotia priced a market-linked senior note offering: equity-linked, auto-callable securities linked to the lowest performing of Amazon.com, Inc., Alphabet Inc. (Class A) and Meta Platforms, Inc., with a stated maturity of June 22, 2029.
The securities have a face amount of $1,000 per security, an initial offering price of $1,000, an estimated bank value between $881.25 and $911.25, an automatic call observation on or about June 22, 2027 with a call premium of at least 26.40% ($264.00), and an upside participation rate of 300%. If not called, payoff depends solely on the lowest performing Underlying Stock: capped positive return (absolute-value feature) if decline is <= 40% (threshold = 60% of start), or full downside exposure if decline exceeds 40%. The offering includes distribution discounts and fees (agent discount up to $25.75, selling concession up to $20.00) and all payments are subject to the Bank's credit risk.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Capped Trigger GEARS linked to the Russell 2000® Index with a total principal amount of $6,384,600. Each Security has a $10 principal amount, a term of approximately four years and matures on May 31, 2030. At maturity the payment depends on the underlying return of the Russell 2000® Index from the initial level (2,919.942) to the final level and the downside threshold (2,189.957, 75.00% of the initial level).
If the underlying return is positive the holder receives principal plus the lesser of (a) underlying return × upside gearing (2.00) and (b) the maximum gain (58.07%). If the final level is below the downside threshold, holders suffer a loss equal to the underlying return and could lose their entire investment. Payments are subject to BNS creditworthiness and limited liquidity; BNS estimated initial value was $9.67 per Security.

The Notes pay a contingent coupon of $31.40 per note (equal to 12.56% per annum) on specified observation/payment dates if each Reference Asset meets its Contingent Coupon Barrier Value. The Notes may be automatically called on any Call Observation Date if each Reference Asset closes at or above its Initial Value; otherwise the payment at maturity is determined solely by the performance of the Least Performing Reference Asset versus its Barrier Value, exposing investors to up to 100% principal loss and subjecting all payments to the Bank's credit risk.

The Bank’s initial estimated value range at pricing is $926.59 to $956.59 per $1,000 Principal Amount.

The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering $17,411,900 of Trigger Step Securities due May 29, 2031. These are senior, unsecured notes linked to the least performing of the S&P 500® and EURO STOXX 50® indices. At maturity the payment depends on whether each index’s final level is at or above its step barrier or at or above a downside threshold. If both final levels meet or exceed their step barriers, investors receive $10 × (1 + the greater of the 65.15% step return or the least performing underlying return). If any final level is below the downside threshold (75% of the initial level), principal can be lost, possibly in full. The initial estimated value at pricing was $9.14 per $10 principal; minimum purchase is 100 Securities ($1,000). Payments are subject to BNS credit risk and the securities likely have limited secondary-market liquidity.

The Notes pay no coupons; they are automatically called on scheduled Observation Dates if each Reference Asset is ≥100% of its Initial Value, with Call Payment Amounts based on a 15.40% Call Return Rate. If not called and the Final Value of every Reference Asset is ≥70% of its Initial Value, investors receive $1,000. If any Reference Asset closes below 70% at maturity, payment is reduced based on the negative return of the Least Performing Reference Asset, possibly resulting in a loss of up to 100% of principal. Payments are unsecured and subject to the Bank’s credit risk.
