The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $8,513,950 of Trigger Autocallable GEARS linked to the common stock of ASML Holding N.V.. The notes have a three-year term unless automatically called, a call return rate of 24.25% on the observation date and an upside gearing of 2.00 at maturity. If the observation date closing level is at or above the initial level of $1,605.77, the securities will be automatically called and pay a call price of $12.425 per $10 principal. If not called, maturity payments depend on the underlying return and a downside threshold of $1,043.75 (65.00% of the initial level); a final level below that threshold can produce losses up to the full principal. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk and limited secondary-market liquidity.

The securities pay a contingent coupon of 24.65% per annum (monthly) if the lowest performing underlying stock on each calculation day is at or above its coupon threshold (45% of its starting price). The notes are auto-callable monthly from November 2026 through April 2029 if the lowest performing underlying closes at or above its starting price; if not called, maturity depends on the lowest performing underlying on the final calculation day (May 29, 2029). If the lowest performing underlying’s ending price is below its downside threshold (45% of starting price), holders can lose more than 55% of principal. The Bank estimated the securities’ value on the pricing date at $933.64 per security and sold them at $1,000 per security (agent discount and distribution fees disclosed). All payments are subject to the Bank’s credit risk and the securities are designed to be held to maturity.
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering Auto-Callable Dual Directional Trigger PLUS linked to ServiceNow, Inc. common stock.

At maturity, if not redeemed, payoffs vary: upside with a 150.00% leverage factor when final share price > initial share price; an absolute return (capped at +35.00%) if final share price ≤ initial but ≥ trigger price; or full downside exposure below the trigger price (65.00% of initial), potentially losing up to the entire investment.
