Insights
Three fixed‑term, capped leveraged index notes priced with explicit upside caps and a 10% downside buffer.
The notes link to single Underlyings with an Upside Leverage Factor of 1.50 and distinct Maximum Returns per issue (21.50% NDX, 24.25% RTY, 17.25% SPX as shown on the cover). The payout mechanics specify principal protection only within the 10.00% Buffer Amount; losses beyond that reduce principal linearly.
Secondary market liquidity and pricing are dealer‑dependent; estimated values per $1,000 were $948.50 (NDX), $955.50 (RTY), and $957.10 (SPX) at pricing. Subsequent account statements or repurchase offers by JPMS may differ from the estimated value during an initial predetermined period.
Tax treatment may be as an "open transaction"; Section 871(m) analysis provided for non-U.S. holders.
Special tax counsel opines the notes may be treated as open transactions not debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which could produce long‑term capital gain/loss treatment if held over one year. That treatment is not binding on the IRS.
The supplement states an opinion that Section 871(m) should not apply to these notes for Non‑U.S. Holders under current determinations and an IRS notice; the IRS could disagree. Holders are advised to consult tax advisers regarding these positions.
