Insights
Notes offer step-up call schedule with full index participation but no coupons.
The structure combines a volatility-targeting index with a step-up automatic call schedule and a 100% Participation Rate. The Index applies a 0.50% per annum deduction and a notional financing cost deducted daily, which lowers index levels relative to a plain exposure.
Key dependencies include the Index's realized volatility (which drives the leverage factor), the closing Index levels on Review Dates for automatic calls, and the creditworthiness of JPMorgan Financial and guarantor JPMorgan Chase & Co.. Subsequent filings will supply final Call Values, exact Call Premium Amounts and the Actual Initial Value on the Pricing Date.
U.S. federal tax treatment: notes expected to be contingent payment debt instruments.
Special tax counsel advises the notes will be treated as contingent payment debt instruments, requiring accrual of original issue discount (OID) at a comparable yield. Taxable events occur on sale, automatic call, or maturity based on amounts received versus adjusted basis.
Section 871(m) determinations are expected not to apply for Non-U.S. Holders under issuer determinations, but the IRS could disagree; purchasers should consult tax advisers.
