Insights
Neutral: tradeoff of capped early-call returns vs. full upside at maturity if not called.
The notes combine a step-up automatic-call schedule with a 100% participation at maturity, subject to daily volatility-targeting and index deductions (0.50% per annum plus financing cost). The structure favors investors seeking potential early cash returns from calls but who also accept credit exposure to JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Key dependencies include the Index’s daily leverage factor, the Effective Federal Funds Rate used for financing costs, and issuer credit spreads; secondary-market liquidity is limited and repurchase prices may be materially below original issue price.
Neutral: treated as contingent payment debt for U.S. federal tax purposes.
Special tax counsel opines the notes are contingent payment debt instruments, requiring accrual of OID using a comparable yield of $4.81% (annual, compounded semiannually) and a projected payment of $1,394.92 per $1,000 note. OID accruals by calendar period are provided in the supplement.
Tax treatment affects timing of income recognition; purchasers who are not initial purchasers should consult advisers. Section 871(m) treatment was analyzed and issuer expects it not to apply to Non-U.S. Holders.
