The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due on or about May 11, 2029, senior unsecured notes whose payments depend on the worst performing of AAPL, AMZN and GOOGL.
Each security has a stated principal amount of $1,000.00. Investors may receive a contingent quarterly coupon of $37.50 (equivalent to 15.00% per annum) only if all three underlying stocks meet the coupon threshold on a determination date. If the securities are not auto‑redeemed and the final share price of the worst performing stock is below 60.00% of its initial share price, the maturity payment will decline on a 1‑to‑1 basis versus that worst performing stock and could be as low as zero. The pricing date is May 8, 2026 and original issue date is expected to be May 13, 2026. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk; estimated initial value is between $923.95 and $953.95, below the issue price.

If not called, principal protection applies only if Final Value is at or above the Buffer Value; otherwise investors suffer leveraged losses of approximately 1.1111% of principal for each 1% the Final Value is below the Initial Value in excess of 10.00%.

The notes can be automatically called if the Reference Asset closes at or above the Initial Value on any Observation Date. Contingent Coupons of $11.90 per note may be paid on scheduled payment dates if the Closing Value is at or above 90.00% of the Initial Value; unpaid coupons may accrue and be paid later if conditions are met. If not called, repayment at maturity depends on the Final Value relative to a 10.00% buffer: if Final Value is at least 90.00% of the Initial Value you receive principal; if below, losses apply on a leveraged basis (approx. 1.1111% principal loss per 1% shortfall beyond 10%).
Key dates: Strike Date May 4, 2026; Trade Date May 5, 2026; Original Issue Date expected May 8, 2026; Final Valuation Date May 5, 2027; Maturity Date May 10, 2027. All payments are cash and are subject to the Bank’s credit risk.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering market-linked, auto-callable senior notes (face amount $1,000 per security) linked to the lowest performing of the common stocks of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Micron Technology, Inc. and NVIDIA Corporation.
The securities carry no periodic interest, may be automatically called on specified call dates through the final calculation day of May 14, 2029 with payment on the stated maturity date of May 17, 2029, and are exposed to credit risk of the Bank. The original offering price is $1,000 and the Bank's estimated value at pricing is between $900.20 and $930.20. The payout at maturity depends solely on the lowest performing Underlying Stock: an absolute-value upside is available only if that stock is down no more than the buffer amount of 45%; a threshold equal to 55% of the starting price determines when investors begin to suffer 1-to-1 losses, which can be as much as 55% of face amount.
The Bank of Nova Scotia offers Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index. The Notes have a term of approximately five years with expected trade date May 8, 2026, settlement May 13, 2026 and maturity May 13, 2031. Each Note has a principal amount of $10 and minimum purchase of 100 Notes ($1,000).

The call return rate will be set on the trade date and is expected to be between 10.00%–10.75% per annum. If not called and the final index level is below the downside threshold (75.00% of the initial level), investors incur full downside market exposure and may lose a significant portion or all principal.

Issue price is $1,000.00 per security; estimated value on pricing date was between $935.50 and $965.50.
