Rhea-AI Filing Summary

UBS AG is marketing “Trigger Callable Contingent Yield Securities” (preliminary 424B2 prospectus) that are two-year, unsecured senior notes tied to the worst-performing of three U.S. equity benchmarks — the Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 and S&P 500. The notes are issued at $1,000 par and pay a fixed 9.01% p.a. contingent coupon (quarterly $22.525) only when the closing level of each index is at least 70 % of its initial level (the “coupon barrier”) on the relevant observation date. Eight observation dates are scheduled between October 2025 and July 2027.

Issuer call right. UBS may redeem the notes in whole on any coupon date (other than maturity) at par plus the due coupon, regardless of index performance. If called, investors forgo future coupons and upside.

Maturity repayment. • If not called and the final level of each index is ≥ 70 % of its initial level (the “trigger level”), investors receive par plus the final coupon. • If the final level of any index is < 70 %, repayment equals $1,000 × (1 + Worst-Index Return), exposing investors to a 1-for-1 downside to zero.

Key terms.

  • Trade date: expected 16 Jul 2025; settlement 21 Jul 2025; maturity 21 Jul 2027 (≈ 24 months)
  • Contingent coupon barrier & trigger: 70 % of each index’s initial close (actual levels set on trade date)
  • Issuer: UBS AG London Branch; calculation agent: UBS Securities LLC
  • Estimated initial value: $934.90 – $964.90 (≈ 93–96 % of issue price)
  • Distribution fees: 1.33 % total (1.00 % sales commission + 0.33 % structuring fee)
  • Not listed on any exchange; secondary market, if any, will be made by UBS affiliates

Risk highlights. Investors face (i) principal loss if any index falls > 30 % over the term, (ii) coupon omission when any index is below its barrier, (iii) early-call/reinvestment risk, (iv) no equity upside, (v) credit risk of UBS, and (vi) liquidity/valuation risk because the notes are unlisted and priced above their modeled value.

UBS AG sta offrendo "Trigger Callable Contingent Yield Securities" (prospetto preliminare 424B2), note senior non garantite di durata biennale collegate al peggior rendimento di tre indici azionari statunitensi — Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 e S&P 500. Le note sono emesse a valore nominale di $1.000 e pagano un cedola fissa condizionata del 9,01% annuo (trimestrale $22,525) solo se il livello di chiusura di ciascun indice è almeno il 70% del livello iniziale (la "barriera della cedola") nella data di osservazione rilevante. Sono previste otto date di osservazione tra ottobre 2025 e luglio 2027.

Diritto di richiamo dell’emittente. UBS può rimborsare integralmente le note in qualsiasi data di pagamento cedola (esclusa la scadenza) al valore nominale più la cedola dovuta, indipendentemente dalla performance degli indici. In caso di richiamo, gli investitori rinunciano alle cedole future e al potenziale rialzo.

Rimborso a scadenza. • Se non richiamate e il livello finale di ciascun indice è ≥ 70% del livello iniziale (il "livello trigger"), gli investitori ricevono il valore nominale più l’ultima cedola. • Se il livello finale di qualunque indice è < 70%, il rimborso sarà pari a $1.000 × (1 + rendimento del peggior indice), esponendo gli investitori a una perdita pari all’1 a 1 fino a zero.

Termini chiave.

  • Data di negoziazione: prevista 16 lug 2025; regolamento 21 lug 2025; scadenza 21 lug 2027 (circa 24 mesi)
  • Barriera cedola condizionata e trigger: 70% del valore iniziale di ciascun indice (livelli definiti alla data di negoziazione)
  • Emittente: UBS AG London Branch; agente di calcolo: UBS Securities LLC
  • Valore iniziale stimato: $934,90 – $964,90 (circa 93–96% del prezzo di emissione)
  • Commissioni di distribuzione: 1,33% totali (1,00% commissione di vendita + 0,33% commissione di strutturazione)
  • Non quotate in alcun mercato regolamentato; eventuale mercato secondario sarà gestito da affiliate UBS

Rischi principali. Gli investitori sono esposti a (i) perdita del capitale se un indice scende oltre il 30% nel periodo, (ii) mancato pagamento della cedola se un indice è sotto la barriera, (iii) rischio di richiamo anticipato e reinvestimento, (iv) assenza di partecipazione al rialzo azionario, (v) rischio di credito di UBS e (vi) rischio di liquidità e valutazione poiché le note non sono quotate e sono prezzate sopra il valore modellato.

UBS AG bietet "Trigger Callable Contingent Yield Securities" (vorläufiges 424B2-Prospekt) an, zweijährige unbesicherte Senior Notes, die an die schlechteste Performance von drei US-Aktienbenchmarks – Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 und S&P 500 – gebunden sind. Die Notes werden zu einem Nennwert von 1.000 $ ausgegeben und zahlen einen festen, bedingten Kupon von 9,01 % p.a. (vierteljährlich 22,525 $) nur, wenn der Schlusskurs jedes Index an dem relevanten Beobachtungstag mindestens 70 % seines Anfangswerts (die „Kupon-Barriere“) erreicht. Acht Beobachtungstermine sind zwischen Oktober 2025 und Juli 2027 geplant.

Rückrufrecht des Emittenten. UBS kann die Notes an jedem Kupontermin (außer bei Fälligkeit) zum Nennwert zuzüglich fälligem Kupon ganz zurückzahlen, unabhängig von der Indexentwicklung. Bei Rückruf verzichten Anleger auf zukünftige Kupons und mögliche Kursgewinne.

Rückzahlung bei Fälligkeit. • Wenn nicht zurückgerufen und der Endstand jedes Index ≥ 70 % seines Anfangswerts (der „Trigger-Level“) ist, erhalten Anleger Nennwert plus den letzten Kupon. • Liegt der Endstand von irgendeinem Index unter 70 %, beträgt die Rückzahlung $1.000 × (1 + Rendite des schlechtesten Index), wodurch Anleger einem 1-zu-1-Abwärtsrisiko bis auf null ausgesetzt sind.

Wesentliche Bedingungen.

  • Handelstag: voraussichtlich 16. Juli 2025; Abwicklung 21. Juli 2025; Fälligkeit 21. Juli 2027 (ca. 24 Monate)
  • Bedingte Kupon-Barriere & Trigger: 70 % des Anfangsschlusskurses jedes Index (tatsächliche Werte am Handelstag festgelegt)
  • Emittent: UBS AG London Branch; Berechnungsstelle: UBS Securities LLC
  • Geschätzter Anfangswert: 934,90 $ – 964,90 $ (ca. 93–96 % des Ausgabepreises)
  • Vertriebsgebühren: insgesamt 1,33 % (1,00 % Verkaufsprovision + 0,33 % Strukturierungsgebühr)
  • Nicht an einer Börse notiert; ein etwaiger Sekundärmarkt wird von UBS-Tochtergesellschaften gestellt

Risikohighlights. Anleger sind Risiken ausgesetzt wie (i) Kapitalverlust, falls ein Index im Lauf der Laufzeit mehr als 30 % fällt, (ii) Kuponausfall, wenn ein Index unter seiner Barriere liegt, (iii) Frühzeitiges Rückruf-/Reinvestitionsrisiko, (iv) kein Aktien-Aufwärtspotenzial, (v) UBS-Kreditrisiko und (vi) Liquiditäts-/Bewertungsrisiko, da die Notes nicht börsennotiert sind und über ihrem modellierten Wert gehandelt werden.

Positive
  • 9.01% contingent coupon offers above-market cash flow when barriers are met
  • Early issuer call repays full principal plus coupon, limiting maximum holding period to as little as three months
  • Exposure spread across three major U.S. equity indices rather than a single stock
Negative
  • Principal loss if any index falls below 70 % at maturity; downside is 1-for-1 to zero
  • Coupons are not guaranteed; missed whenever a single index is below its barrier
  • Issuer call occurs at UBS’s discretion, creating reinvestment risk and capping total return
  • Notes are unsecured obligations of UBS; subject to Swiss bail-in, investors may suffer write-down on default
  • No secondary listing; liquidity depends on UBS affiliates and may be limited at unfavorable pricing
  • Issue price exceeds estimated value by roughly 3–6 %, an immediate economic drag

Insights

TL;DR High 9% coupon but steep 30 % trigger; principal at risk and call option favors UBS.

The note offers an eye-catching 9.01 % annual coupon yet embeds significant optionality for the issuer. Because any single index breach suspends coupons and drives repayment, the product is effectively short a put on each benchmark. Historical drawdowns of the Russell 2000 in particular make a ≤ 70 % finish plausible. Investors also concede upside and accept a modeled value roughly 3–6 % below issue price, meaning a bid-offer hurdle from day one. The call feature allows UBS to redeem precisely when the coupon obligation is most costly, further skewing risk/return toward the bank. Credit exposure to UBS and limited liquidity compound risk. Overall, risk-tolerant income seekers may find the coupon appealing, but loss probability is material if volatility returns.

TL;DR Single 30 % drop in any index = capital loss; coupons not guaranteed.

Structurally, the note concentrates downside through a worst-of basket. Correlation benefits are nullified, and the Russell 2000’s higher volatility raises breach likelihood. Monte-Carlo simulations (not in issuer docs) typically show >35 % probability of principal loss for similar structures under long-run vol/ρ assumptions. Liquidity risk is notable; no listing plus a temporary market-maker premium that amortizes to zero diminishes exit values. Credit risk is non-trivial given UBS’s bail-in regime under Swiss law. From a portfolio-construction perspective, this instrument should be sized modestly and only for investors prepared to hold to maturity.

All repurchases on the London Stock Exchange, Aquis Exchange, Cboe Europe Limited (through the BXE and CXE order books) and/or Turquoise ("UK Venues") are implemented as "on Exchange" transactions (as such term is defined in the rules of the London Stock Exchange) and as "market purchases" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006.

All repurchases on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("Hong Kong Stock Exchange") are "off market" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006 but are transactions which occur "on Exchange" for the purposes of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and which constitute an "on-market share buy-back" for the purposes of the Codes on Takeovers and Mergers and Share Buy-backs.
 
Since the commencement of the buy-back announced on 6 May 2025, the Company has repurchased 215,205,253 ordinary shares for a total consideration of approximately US$2,522.1m.
 
Following the cancellation of the shares repurchased on the UK Venues, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist of 17,448,226,484 ordinary shares with voting rights. There are no ordinary shares held in treasury. Cancellation of the shares repurchased on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange takes longer than those repurchased on the UK Venues and a further announcement of total voting rights will be made once those shares have been cancelled.
 
The above figure of 17,448,226,484 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
 
In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended), a full breakdown of the individual trades made by Morgan Stanley on behalf of the Company is available via the link below.

FAQ

What is the coupon rate on the UBS Trigger Callable Contingent Yield Securities?

The notes pay a 9.01 % per-annum coupon ($22.525 quarterly) only if each index is at or above 70 % of its initial level on the observation date.

When can UBS call the securities before maturity?

UBS may call in whole on any coupon payment date except maturity, paying par plus the due coupon, regardless of index performance.

How much principal could I lose at maturity?

If any index ends below 70 % of its initial level, repayment equals $1,000 × (1 + Worst-Index Return), producing a 1-for-1 loss that can reach 100 %.

Are the notes listed on an exchange?

No. No exchange or ECN listing is planned; any liquidity will depend on UBS Securities LLC acting as a market maker.

What is the estimated initial value versus the issue price?

UBS estimates the initial value at $934.90 – $964.90, below the $1,000 issue price due to fees, hedging and funding costs.

Which index is most likely to breach the 70% trigger?

The disclosure notes the Russell 2000 has higher volatility, increasing the chance it becomes the worst-performing index.
