JPMorgan $1.589M Auto-Callable Notes with 13.05% Contingent Rate
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering $1,589,000 principal amount of Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes linked to the least performing of the Nasdaq-100® Technology Sector, the ARK Innovation ETF and the State Street® Energy Select Sector SPDR® ETF, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes priced on June 11, 2026 and are expected to settle on or about June 16, 2026. Each $1,000 note pays a contingent interest of $10.875 per applicable Review Date (a stated contingent rate of 13.05% per annum) when each Underlying is at or above 50.00% of its Initial Value, is subject to automatic early call mechanics beginning with a possible call on the September 11, 2026 Review Date, and exposes investors to credit risk of the issuer and guarantor and to potential loss of principal at maturity if the Least Performing Underlying declines below its Trigger Value.

Insights
Auto-callable notes offer high contingent coupons but significant downside tied to the least performing underlying.
The structure pays a 13.05% per annum contingent coupon (equivalent to $10.875 per $1,000 per qualifying Review Date) and features an automatic call if all Underlyings meet their Initial Value on specified Review Dates, which can truncate term early.
The main dependencies are simultaneous performance of three Underlyings and issuer/guarantor credit; investor outcomes hinge on the Least Performing Underlying Return at maturity, creating asymmetric downside where principal loss equals that least performer’s decline.
Tax treatment is uncertain; issuer intends to treat notes as prepaid forwards with contingent coupons.
The issuer states it intends to treat the notes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons, with Contingent Interest Payments generally characterized as ordinary income for U.S. Holders, but alternative IRS treatments could change timing or character of income.
Non-U.S. Holders should note potential 30% withholding on Contingent Interest Payments absent proper documentation and the issuer’s view that Section 871(m) should not apply through 2026; consult a tax adviser.
