[Form 4] BOX, INC. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is marketing Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities linked to the common stock of Uber Technologies, Inc. (ticker: UBER UN). Each unlisted note has a $1,000 face amount, prices on 18-Jul-2025 and matures (unless called) on 21-Jul-2028. The securities offer a contingent quarterly coupon of $26.90 (10.76% p.a.) that is paid only when the closing price of Uber shares on an observation date is at or above the 60% downside threshold. A memory feature allows skipped coupons to be recovered on later dates that meet the threshold.

The notes are auto-callable: if Uber’s closing price on any quarterly determination date (other than the final one) is at or above the 100% call threshold, investors receive the stated principal plus the applicable coupon and the deal terminates early. At maturity, if the final share price is below the 60% threshold, principal is reduced in direct proportion to Uber’s share decline, exposing investors to a loss of up to 100% of principal.

Key terms

• Issuer: The Bank of Nova Scotia, Senior Note Program Series A
• Coupon: 10.76% p.a. contingent, with memory
• Downside threshold: 60% of initial share price
• Call threshold: 100% of initial share price (observed quarterly)
• Issue price vs. estimated value: $1,000 vs. $938.74–$968.74
• Upfront selling commission: $22.50 per note
• Listing: None; liquidity depends on dealer market making

Principal risks highlighted by BNS include

• Full principal risk below the 60% threshold
• Possibility of zero coupons if Uber trades weakly throughout the term
• Credit exposure to BNS as senior unsecured debt
• Limited secondary market and price concessions versus estimated value
• Uncertain tax treatment for U.S. and Canadian investors

The product suits investors seeking enhanced income and willing to take single-stock, equity-linked downside and issuer credit risk in exchange for capped returns and no equity upside.

Positive

• High contingent coupon: 10.76% annualized income if conditions are met, above typical investment-grade yields.
• Memory feature: allows previously missed coupons to be recaptured, improving potential cash-flow consistency.
• 40% downside buffer: principal is protected as long as Uber does not fall more than 40% from the initial price.
• Auto-call mechanism: can return capital early at par plus coupon if Uber stock is flat or higher, reducing exposure period.

Negative

• Principal at risk: Uber closing below the 60% threshold at maturity causes proportional loss, potentially to 0%.
• No equity upside: investors forgo any participation in Uber share appreciation beyond coupon payments.
• Credit exposure: payments depend on Bank of Nova Scotia’s ability to pay as senior unsecured debt.
• Liquidity discount: notes are unlisted; dealer bid prices may be well below issue price and intrinsic value.
• Issue price premium: bank’s estimated fair value ($938.74–$968.74) is below $1,000 purchase price.
• Tax uncertainty: U.S. and Canadian tax treatment is not conclusively determined.

Insights

Structured Products Analyst

TL;DR 10.76% contingent coupon looks attractive, but investors face 40% buffer only and no upside; overall neutral risk-reward.

The note delivers above-market income if Uber stays above 60% of its initial price. The memory feature partly mitigates missed coupons, and the quarterly auto-call at 100% shortens duration if the stock holds flat or rises. However, investors surrender all upside beyond coupon income, and capital is fully exposed below the 60% barrier—historically, Uber has exhibited high volatility, so downside breach probability is material. The note is priced 3–6% above the bank’s estimated value, reflecting dealer compensation and hedging costs, which may weigh on secondary prices. BNS is rated high-grade, but the unsecured structure still embeds issuer credit risk. Overall, the security may fit yield-seeking portfolios comfortable with single-equity and credit risk, yet it is not impactful for BNS’ own financials and should be viewed as a marketing flow product rather than a strategic financing.

FAQ

What is the contingent quarterly coupon rate on BNS’s Auto-Callable Securities linked to UBER?

The notes pay $26.90 per quarter per $1,000 (10.76% p.a.) when Uber’s closing price is at or above the 60% downside threshold.

When can the BNS securities be called early?

On any quarterly determination date before maturity, if Uber’s closing price is ≥100% of the initial price, the notes auto-redeem at par plus the coupon.

How much principal protection do investors have?

Principal is fully protected only if Uber’s final price is ≥60% of its initial level; below that, repayment falls in proportion to the decline.

Is there upside participation in Uber stock gains?

No. Investors receive fixed coupons only; any share appreciation above the call threshold accrues solely to the issuer.

Where will the securities trade after issuance?

The notes will not be listed; secondary liquidity, if any, will rely on Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. making a market.
