Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due July 27, 2029 linked to Micron Technology, Inc. common stock, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
The $1,000-denomination notes pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 26.24% (about $65.60 per quarter) only when Micron’s determination closing price is at least 40% of the initial share price (the downside threshold). Missed coupons may be paid later if this condition is met on a future determination date; otherwise they are forfeited. If on any of the first eleven quarterly determination dates Micron is at or above the initial share price, the notes are automatically redeemed at par plus that quarter’s coupon and any unpaid coupons.
If not called early and the final share price is at least the downside threshold, holders receive par plus the final coupon and any unpaid coupons. If the final share price is below the threshold, repayment is reduced 1‑for‑1 with Micron’s price decline, to less than 40% of principal and potentially zero. The notes are unsecured obligations of MSFL, guaranteed by Morgan Stanley; all payments depend on their credit. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $967.90 per note, below the $1,000 issue price, reflecting dealer compensation and hedging costs.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering principal-at-risk Jump Securities with an auto-call feature maturing July 24, 2031, linked to Vertiv Holdings Co Class A common stock. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price, with an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $925.30 per security.
The notes pay no interest and do not guarantee any principal. Starting July 28, 2027, they are automatically redeemed if Vertiv’s closing share price is at or above a call threshold equal to 100% of the initial level on a determination date, for fixed cash amounts that step up over 48 possible call dates and correspond to approximately 27.90% per annum. If not called, at maturity investors receive $2,395.00 per security if the final level is at or above the call threshold, only $1,000 if the final level is below the call threshold but at or above a downside threshold at 50% of the initial level, and $1,000 multiplied by the performance factor (final level ÷ initial level) if the final level is below the downside threshold, exposing them to the full downside and possible total loss.
All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit; the securities are unsecured obligations of MSFL, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes are complex, may be illiquid, and involve uncertain U.S. tax treatment, which counsel currently views as prepaid financial contracts treated as open transactions.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is issuing Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities linked to the capital stock of International Business Machines Corporation. The notes are due August 2, 2027, sold in $1,000 denominations, pay no interest and are principal-at-risk.
At maturity, if IBM’s closing level on the observation date is at or above the downside threshold of $147.84 (70% of the $211.20 initial level), holders receive $1,000 plus a fixed $240 upside payment (a 24% return). If the final level is below the threshold, the payout is $1,000 multiplied by the ratio of final to initial level, so losses match the full percentage decline and can reach 100% of principal. The estimated value on the pricing date is about $981.90 per security, below the issue price, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and issuer credit spreads. The notes are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, may have limited secondary market liquidity, and involve complex and uncertain U.S. tax treatment as prepaid financial contracts.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering principal-at-risk “Jump Securities” with an auto-call feature linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal and issue price, with no coupons and no principal protection; all payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit.
The notes auto-call on July 20, 2027 if the index is at least 100% of its initial level, paying an early redemption of $1,161 per security. If not called, at July 20, 2029 maturity investors receive: principal plus 150% of index gains if the index exceeds the initial level; only principal if the index finishes between 80% and 100% of the initial level; or a loss matching the full index decline (via the performance factor) if it ends below 80%, which can reduce repayment to zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is about $973.50 per note because of embedded issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs, and secondary-market liquidity may be limited.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due July 20, 2029 linked to the ordinary shares of Seagate Technology Public Limited Company, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price, with an estimated value on the pricing date of about $961.
Investors may receive a 51.00% annual contingent coupon, paid only if the underlier’s closing level on an observation date is at or above a coupon barrier set at 60% of the initial level; otherwise no coupon is paid for that period. Starting October 19, 2026, if on any redemption determination date the underlier closes at or above 100% of the initial level, the notes are automatically redeemed for principal plus that period’s coupon, with no further payments.
If not redeemed early and the final level on July 17, 2029 is at or above the 60% downside threshold, investors receive principal at maturity (plus the final coupon if payable). If the final level is below this threshold, repayment is reduced in proportion to the underlier’s decline and can fall to zero, so principal is fully at risk. Payments are unsecured and depend on the credit of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley; the notes are not FDIC-insured and feature limited liquidity and uncertain tax treatment.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Dual Directional Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS notes linked to Micron Technology, Inc. common stock, each with a $1,000 stated principal amount, maturing on August 3, 2028, and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
The notes pay no interest and put principal at risk. They auto-call on August 6, 2027 if Micron’s adjusted closing price is at or above the initial share price, paying an early redemption amount of $1,530.50 per note. If not called, maturity payoff is: 150% of upside when Micron finishes at or above the initial price; a positive “absolute return” on declines down to a downside threshold set at 50% of the initial price, capped at a 50% gain; and 1-for-1 loss below that threshold, potentially to zero. The issue price is $1,000 per note, while the estimated value on the pricing date is about $952.80, reflecting embedded selling, structuring and hedging costs plus Morgan Stanley’s funding spread. Commissions total $25 per note ($20 sales commission and $5 structuring fee). All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Buffered PLUS structured notes linked to an equally weighted basket of ten U.S.-listed stocks, maturing November 3, 2027. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount and pays no interest.
At maturity, holders receive $1,000 plus 150% of any basket gain, capped at a maximum payment of $1,309 per note. A 10% buffer protects against moderate declines; beyond that, losses track further basket drops, with a minimum payment of $100. All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit.
The notes are not listed, and secondary liquidity may be limited. Upfront costs mean the estimated value on the pricing date is about $964.40 per $1,000 note, after a $17.50 sales commission and $5 structuring fee that are included in the issue price.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering leveraged buffered S&P MidCap 400 Index-linked notes, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The unsecured notes pay no interest and have a term expected to be 13–15 months, with repayment based solely on index performance and the issuers’ credit.
For each $1,000 note, investors receive 150% of any positive S&P MidCap 400 return, subject to a Maximum Settlement Amount expected between $1,133.95 and $1,157.20. If the index falls up to 10% from its initial level, principal is returned; below a 90% Buffer Level, losses accelerate using a Buffer Rate of about 111.11%, and the entire investment can be lost. The notes are priced at $1,000, with dealer commissions of 1.23% and an estimated value of about $984.70 per note, and are not listed on any exchange, so liquidity depends on Morgan Stanley & Co. making a market.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Trigger PLUS, principal-at-risk structured notes linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index, maturing on August 4, 2032, and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount, pays no interest and all payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit.
At maturity, if the index is above its initial level, investors receive $1,000 plus 192.80% of the index percent increase. If the index is at or below the initial level but at or above 75% of the initial level, they receive $1,000. If the index finishes below 75% of its initial level, the payoff equals $1,000 times the final index value divided by the initial index value, so losses track the full index decline and can reach the entire principal.
The estimated value on the pricing date is about $942 per note versus the $1,000 issue price, reflecting a $30 dealer commission and $5 structuring fee per note and hedging costs. The notes will not be listed, secondary trading may be limited, they are not insured by any governmental agency, and they carry both index and issuer credit risk.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Dual Directional Trigger PLUS notes linked to the VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX), fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, with maturity on February 3, 2028 and no periodic interest payments.
At maturity, investors receive $1,000 plus 200% of any positive ETF return, capped at a maximum payment of $1,507 per note (150.70% of principal). If the ETF is down but not below the 80% trigger level, investors earn a positive return equal to the absolute percentage decline, up to a 20% gain.
If the ETF falls more than 20%, repayment is $1,000 multiplied by the share performance factor, exposing investors to the full downside beyond 20% with no principal protection. The notes have an estimated value of about $966.30 on the pricing date, will not be listed, and are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit and liquidity risk.
