[424B2] JPMORGAN CHASE & CO Prospectus Supplement
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes linked to the MerQube Bitcoin Vol Advantage Index, fully guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes may pay quarterly contingent interest (at least 14.25% per annum annualized) when the Index is at or above 60.00% of its Initial Value on Review Dates and may be automatically called if the Index equals or exceeds the Initial Value on certain Review Dates. The notes price on or about June 30, 2026 and are expected to settle on or about July 6, 2026. The Index reflects a 6.0% per annum daily deduction and a notional financing cost, both of which are deducted daily and will materially reduce index performance. At maturity you may lose a significant portion or all of principal if the Final Value is below the Trigger Value; the structure limits appreciation to the sum of contingent interest payments and does not provide direct upside participation in bitcoin or the IBIT Fund.

Insights
Structured note balances high coupon potential with material index deductions and leveraged volatility mechanics.
The notes offer a stated contingent coupon floor of 14.25% per annum (payable quarterly) conditional on the Index remaining above the 60.00% Interest Barrier on Review Dates and carry an automatic-call feature beginning on December 30, 2026. The Index applies a 6.0% per annum daily deduction plus a notional financing cost; those deductions act as a persistent drag on returns and are central to pricing and the notes' estimated value.
Key dependencies include the Index’s weekly leverage/rebalancing rule (target volatility 35%), the IBIT Fund’s realized vs implied volatility, and credit spreads of the issuer/guarantor. Future changes to Index methodology or the IBIT Fund could materially change outcomes; subsequent pricing details in the final pricing supplement will determine precise economics.
Tax treatment is uncertain; issuer intends to treat notes as prepaid forwards with contingent coupons.
The issuer intends to treat the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons, with contingent payments characterized as ordinary income. This position is described as reasonable but not binding; alternative IRS or court treatments could alter timing and character of income.
Non-U.S. Holders should note possible withholding (generally 30%) on contingent payments absent appropriate documentation. Consult a tax adviser for personalized guidance.
