The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering market-linked, auto-callable senior notes due May 3, 2029, linked to the lowest performing share of AMD, Broadcom, Goldman Sachs and NVIDIA. The notes pay a contingent quarterly coupon (memory feature) if the lowest performing underlying closes at or above 60% of its starting price on a calculation day; the contingent coupon rate will be set on the pricing date and will be at least 25.50% per annum. If not auto-called, principal at maturity depends on the lowest performing underlying: full face amount is returned only if that underlying's ending price on the final calculation day is at least 60% of its starting price; otherwise the maturity payment equals $1,000 multiplied by that underlying’s performance factor (investor may lose more than 40%, and possibly all, of principal). All payments are subject to the Bank's credit risk. The Bank's estimated value at pricing is between $920.03 and $950.03 per security; original offering price is $1,000 (agent discount and distribution fees are included in the offering price).
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering $18,038,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due April 20, 2029, linked to the common stock of GE Vernova Inc. Each $1,000 security pays a contingent quarterly coupon of $34.625 (13.85% per annum) only if the underlying closing price on a determination date is at least $501.375 (50.00% of the initial share price). The notes are auto‑callable prior to maturity if the closing price on a determination date equals or exceeds $1,002.75 (100.00% of the initial share price), in which case investors receive the stated principal plus payable coupons. If the final share price is below the downside threshold, repayment at maturity is the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor and may be less than 50% of principal or zero. Payments are subject to BNS credit risk. The initial estimated value on the pricing date was $959.40 per $1,000 stated principal; issue price is $1,000 per security.

If the notes are autocalled when MSFT equals or exceeds the call threshold ($422.79), investors receive the stated principal plus that quarter's coupon. If the final share price is below the downside threshold ($295.953), principal is repaid on a 1-to-1 basis with the share performance factor and could be less than 70% of principal, possibly zero.

The Bank estimated the securities' value at $947.43 per security on the pricing date; the original offering price is $1,000 per security. If not called, maturity repayment depends on the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day: full face amount is paid only if that stock is at or above its 50% downside threshold; otherwise the maturity payment equals $1,000 multiplied by that stock’s performance factor, exposing holders to losses greater than 50% and possibly complete loss of principal. All payments are subject to the Bank's credit risk.

The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the least performing of the Nikkei 225® Index and the Russell 2000® Index, due on or about April 28, 2036.

The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $10,000,000 of Capped In-GEARS linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average® due December 2, 2031. The securities are senior unsecured notes whose maturity payment depends on an underlying performance factor equal to the arithmetic average of final and initial index levels. If the underlying performance factor is ≥168%, investors receive the maximum gain of 97.175%; intermediate positive returns apply for performance between 103% and 168%. If the factor is between 96% and 103%, investors receive principal at maturity; below 96% investors incur leveraged losses (2.00x the shortfall between the factor and 96% in one band, or full downside exposure below 92%), meaning in extreme cases the entire principal could be lost. The initial estimated value on the trade date was $9.61 per security versus the issue price of $10.00. Payments are unsecured and depend on BNS creditworthiness.
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering Trigger Jump Securities with Auto-Callable Feature, senior unsecured notes due on or about May 5, 2032, linked to the worst performing of the Russell 2000® and the S&P 500® indices.

The securities pay no interest, may be automatically redeemed on specified determination dates for early redemption payments corresponding to a 9.60% per annum return, and otherwise pay at maturity a fixed maturity redemption payment of $1,576.00 if both indices finish at or above their initial index values.
If the securities are not redeemed early and the final index value of any underlying index is below its trigger level (80.00% of its initial index value), the investor is exposed 1:1 to the negative return of the worst performing index and may lose up to their entire investment. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk. BNS’ initial estimated value range on the pricing date was $916.28 to $946.28 per security; the issue price exceeds that estimate and includes distribution and structuring fees.

The initial estimated value range at pricing is expected to be $925.00 to $955.00 per $1,000. Payments are subject to the Bank’s creditworthiness and the notes will not be listed on an exchange.
