JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC priced Uncapped Accelerated Barrier Notes linked to the MerQube US Large‑Cap Vol Advantage Index on May 15, 2026 for an original issue amount of $308,000 in aggregate principal. The notes pay at maturity an upside equal to 3.00 times any Index appreciation or return principal only if the Final Value is ≥ the Barrier Amount of 60.00 of the Initial Value; if the Final Value is below the Barrier Amount the investor suffers full downside exposure.

Insights
Notes amplify upside via a 3.00 leverage but carry pronounced structural drag from a 6.0% daily deduction.
The notes provide a leveraged upside: payment at maturity equals $1,000 plus Index Return × 3.00 when Final Value > Initial Value; a Barrier Amount at 60.00 preserves principal only if Final Value ≥ Barrier. The Index’s daily 6.0% deduction materially reduces realized returns and is a primary input in pricing models.
Key dependencies are Index volatility, timing of rebalance (weekly), and roll/contango effects in the underlying futures. Secondary market pricing, liquidity and credit of the issuer/guarantor will determine tradability and observed prices prior to August 20, 2031.
Investor return depends on both index performance and credit of JPMorgan Financial and guarantor JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The notes are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Financial with a full guarantee from JPMorgan Chase & Co.; any payment is subject to those entities’ credit risk. The estimated value ($860.90) is below the issue price due to selling commissions and hedging costs included in the $1,000 price to public.
Material watch items: issuer/guarantor credit spreads, the Index’s realized volatility versus its 35% target, and the daily 6.0% deduction that reduces potential upside.
