Insights
Auto-callable notes trade an interest premium for capped upside and downside amplification below a buffer.
The structure offers 6.15% per annum interest paid semiannually but limits appreciation participation; holders do not receive dividends on underlying Index constituents. Automatic calling on Review Dates can shorten term, delivering the accrued Interest Payment on the applicable Call Settlement Date.
The economic exposure is: protected only for Index declines up to 20.00%; beyond that, losses are multiplied by a 1.25 factor. Secondary market liquidity and pricing depend on JPMS willingness to trade and internal funding rates; observed estimated value at pricing was $982.00 per $1,000.
The issuer intends to characterize each note as a unit comprising a Put Option and a Deposit for U.S. federal tax reporting.
Based on counsel advice, approximately 77.07% of each Interest Payment is treated as interest on the Deposit and the remainder as Put Premium. This allocation affects timing and character of taxable income for U.S. Holders.
Section 871(m) treatment is addressed; issuer and counsel believe it should not apply to Non-U.S. Holders for these notes, but that position is not binding on the IRS and could be challenged.
