The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering $12,000,000 of Buffered Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 7, 2027 linked to Shares of the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1. Each note has a stated principal of $1,000 and may pay a contingent monthly coupon of $11.90 (14.28% per annum) on determination dates when the closing price is ≥ the downside threshold ($606.735, 90% of the initial share price). The notes are automatically called if the closing price on a determination date (other than final) is ≥ the call threshold ($674.15). If not called and the final share price is below the downside threshold, investors receive a cash value that can result in losses (approximately 1.1111% loss for every 1% below the downside threshold) and could lose their entire investment. Payments depend on BNS creditworthiness; estimated value at pricing was $995.20 per note, below the $1,000 issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Digital Notes linked to shares of the iShares® 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) with an expected term of approximately 23 to 26 months. The notes have an original issue price of 100%, an underwriting concession of 1.47%, and an initial estimated value range of $937.01 to $967.01 per $1,000 principal. At maturity, if the final price of the reference asset is at least 90.00% of the initial price, investors receive a capped threshold settlement amount (expected between $1,128.90 and $1,151.60 per $1,000). If the final price is below 90.00% of the initial price, losses apply and the notes absorb downside at a buffer rate of approximately 111.11%, meaning investors may lose up to 100% of principal. Payments are unsubordinated, unsecured, not insured by CDIC or FDIC, and subject to the Bank’s credit risk. The notes will not be listed and no dividends from the ETF are paid to holders.
