JPMorgan (NYSE: JPM) notes offer 10.85% contingent interest tied to MerQube index
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering auto callable contingent interest notes linked to the MerQube US Large-Cap Vol Advantage Index, with a minimum denomination of $1,000 per note and a guarantee from JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The notes are scheduled to price on July 29, 2026, with quarterly review dates, a final review date on July 29, 2031, and maturity on August 1, 2031. They pay a contingent interest rate of at least 10.85% per annum (at least 2.7125% per quarter) only if, on a review date, the index is at or above an interest barrier equal to 60% of the initial value; unpaid interest can be paid later if conditions are met.
The notes are automatically called on certain review dates if the index is at or above its initial value, returning $1,000 per note plus the applicable interest and any previously unpaid interest, with no further payments. If not called, and the final index value is at or above the 60% Trigger Value, the same principal and interest structure applies at maturity; if it is below, the repayment falls in line with the index loss and can be reduced to zero.
The underlying index uses leveraged exposure of up to 500% to E‑Mini S&P 500 futures and embeds a 6.0% per annum daily deduction, which can weigh on performance. The estimated value at issuance will be at least $870 per $1,000 note, and all payments depend on the credit of the issuer and guarantor.

Filing Explained
The document is preliminary, so the notes’ disclosed economics may change before the July 29, 2026 pricing date.
This Rule 424(b)(3) filing summarizes a preliminary pricing supplement for the proposed notes; it says the terms may be amended, superseded or replaced, so the disclosed economics are not yet final.
The filing identifies JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC as a finance subsidiary with limited assets and no independent activities, while payments remain subject to the issuer’s and guarantor’s credit risk.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC intends, but is not required, to offer a secondary market; any available resale price could therefore be below principal and result in a significant loss.

The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. • The notes do not guarantee the payment of interest and may not pay interest at all. • The level of the Index will include a 6.0% per annum daily deduction. • Any payment on the notes is subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and JPMorgan Chase & Co. Therefore the value of the notes prior to maturity will be subject to changes in the market’s view of the creditworthiness of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC or JPMorgan Chase & Co. • As a finance subsidiary, JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC has no independent activities and has limited assets. • The appreciation potential of the notes is limited to the sum of any Contingent Interest Payments that may be paid over the term of the notes. • The benefit provided by the Trigger Value may terminate on the final Review Date. • The automatic call feature may force a potential early exit. • No dividend payments or voting rights. • Lack of liquidity: J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (who we refer to as JPMS) intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so. The price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to purchase notes from you in the secondary market, if at all, may result in a significant loss of your principal. • The tax consequences of the notes may be uncertain. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes. Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest • Potential conflicts: We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the notes, and making the assumptions used to determine the pricing of the notes and the estimated value of the notes when the terms of the notes are set. It is possible that such hedging or other trading activities of J.P. Morgan or its affiliates could result in substantial returns for J.P. Morgan and its affiliates while the value of the notes declines. • Our affiliate, JPMS, worked with MerQube (the “Index Sponsor”) in developing the guidelines and policies governing the composition and calculation of the Index. Selected Risks (continued) Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes • The estimated value of the notes will be lower than the original issue price (price to public) of the notes. • The estimated value of the notes does not represent future values and may differ from others’ estimates. • The estimated value of the notes is determined by reference to an internal funding rate. • The value of the notes, which may be reflected in customer account statements, may be higher than the then - current estimated value of the notes for a limited time period. Risks Relating to the Index • JPMorgan Chase & Co. is currently one of the companies that make up the S&P 500 ® Index. • The Index Sponsor may adjust the Index in a way that affects its level, and the Index Sponsor has no obligation to consider your interests. • The Index may not be successful or outperform any alternative strategy. • The Index may not approximate its target volatility. • The Index is subject to risks associated with the use of significant leverage. • The Index may be adversely affected by a “volatility drag” effect. • The Index may be significantly uninvested. • The Index may be adversely affected if later futures contracts have higher prices than an expiring futures contract included in the Index. • The Index is an excess return index that does not reflect “total returns.” • Concentration risks associated with the Index may adversely affect the value of your notes. • The Index is subject to significant risks associated with futures contracts, including volatility. • Suspension or disruptions of market trading in futures contracts may adversely affect the value of your notes. • The official settlement price and intraday trading prices of the relevant futures contracts may not be readily available. • Changes in the margin requirements for the futures contracts included in the Index may adversely affect the value of the notes. • The Index was established on February 11, 2022 and may perform in unanticipated ways.
