JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC priced $250,000 of Capped Dual Directional Buffered Equity Notes linked to the S&P 500® Index. The notes, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., priced on May 1, 2026 with expected settlement on or about May 6, 2026. The notes provide a capped upside (Maximum Upside Return 18.30%) for positive Index returns, a Buffer Amount of 20.00% that limits losses up to that threshold and an absolute‑value payoff for declines within the buffer (capped at a $1,200 payment per $1,000 note). If the Index falls more than the Buffer Amount, investors incur losses equal to the Index shortfall beyond 20.00%, exposing holders to up to 80.00% principal loss at maturity on a $1,000 note. The notes do not pay interest or dividends, are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Financial and are subject to the credit risk of both JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Insights
Product blends capped positive participation with buffered downside up to 20%.
The notes give investors up to a $1,183 payment per $1,000 principal (Maximum Upside Return 18.30%) when the S&P 500® Index appreciates, and provide an absolute‑value payoff for declines up to the Buffer Amount (20.00%), producing a maximum payment of $1,200 if the Index return is negative within the buffer.
Key dependencies include the Index closing level on the Observation Date (November 1, 2028), the fixed Maximum Upside Return and the Buffer Amount. Secondary‑market liquidity is limited and any early sale may result in a price materially below issue due to commissions and hedging costs.
Credit exposure to issuer and guarantor is the primary counterparty risk.
Although JPMorgan Chase & Co. guarantees payments, the notes remain unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC; holders rely on both entities' creditworthiness. The pricing supplement highlights that in a resolution or bankruptcy of JPMorgan Chase & Co., recovery could be limited.
Investors should note the estimated value ($962.00 per $1,000 note) is lower than the issue price because selling commissions and hedging costs are embedded in the price; published secondary prices may differ from internal estimates.
Tax treatment may be as prepaid financial contracts; IRS rules could change treatment.
Special tax counsel opines the notes are reasonably treated as open transactions and not debt, so gains may be long‑term capital if held over one year. This treatment is not assured; the IRS could challenge characterization or issue regulations affecting tax timing or character.
Section 871(m) analysis in the supplement concludes it should not apply for Non‑U.S. Holders under certain determinations, but the IRS may disagree; consult a tax adviser for specific consequences.
