Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Dual Directional Buffered PLUS, unsecured structured notes linked to the S&P 500 Futures Excess Return Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes pay no interest and mature on November 4, 2030. The issue price is $1,000 per security and the estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $969.10 per security (within $55.00 of that estimate). The pricing/strike date is October 30, 2025, with a single observation on October 30, 2030. The securities will not be listed on any exchange and are subject to the issuer’s credit risk.
At maturity: if the final index level is above the initial level, holders receive principal plus a leveraged upside payment at a 183% leverage factor. If the final level is at or below the initial level but at or above 85% of the initial level (a 15% buffer), holders receive principal plus a positive return equal to the absolute decline, effectively capped at a 15% gain. If the final level is below the 85% buffer level, principal is reduced 1% for each 1% decline beyond the buffer, subject to a minimum payment at maturity of 15% of principal.
The notes are sold to fee‑based advisory accounts; MS&Co. will not receive a sales commission. Secondary market liquidity may be limited, and MS&Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market. The product’s payoff depends solely on the closing level on the observation date, not on levels at other times.
