Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering $10-per-unit Autocallable Leveraged Index Return Notes linked to Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR), with a term of about two years if not called.
The notes can be automatically called after roughly one year if Palantir’s stock is at or above its starting level, paying a call amount of $12.80–$13.20 per unit (a 28%–32% premium), after which no further payments are due. If not called, at maturity investors receive 150% of any positive price gain, or a positive “absolute return” on declines up to 40%, but lose principal 1‑for‑1 if the stock is down more than 40%, up to a total loss.
The product pays no interest, does not provide dividends or voting rights in Palantir, and has limited secondary market liquidity. All payments depend on the credit of MSFL and Morgan Stanley. The initial estimated value is about $9.668 per unit, below the $10 public offering price due to structuring and distribution costs and an internal funding rate.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUS) due February 11, 2031 linked to the worst performer of three ETFs: Invesco QQQ Trust, iShares Expanded Tech-Software ETF and VanEck Semiconductor ETF.
Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, total offering size of $250,000, and pays no interest. At maturity, if every underlier is above its initial level, holders receive principal plus a leveraged upside payment using a 222% leverage factor on the worst-performing ETF’s gain.
If any underlier finishes at or below its initial level, the payout is principal multiplied by the performance of the worst-performing ETF, with a 1% loss of principal for every 1% decline and no minimum payment, so the entire investment can be lost. The estimated value on the pricing date is $939.80 per security, reflecting issuing, structuring and hedging costs.
The notes are unsecured obligations of MSFL, subject to Morgan Stanley’s guarantee and credit risk, are not listed on an exchange, and secondary market liquidity may be limited. They are sold in fee-based advisory accounts through Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Trigger PLUS notes due February 17, 2028, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. These principal-at-risk securities pay no interest and are linked to the worst performer among the KOSPI 200, Nikkei Stock Average, STOXX® Europe 600 and Swiss Market Index.
At maturity, if the final level of each index is above its initial level, holders receive $1,000 plus a leveraged upside payment equal to 501% of the worst index’s percentage gain. If at least one index is at or below its initial level but all stay at or above 60% of their initial levels, investors receive only the $1,000 principal.
If any index finishes below 60% of its initial level, the payoff tracks the worst index’s performance factor, with a 1% loss of principal for every 1% decline; repayment can fall to zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $951.60 per $1,000 note, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s internal funding rate. All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering contingent income auto-callable securities due February 19, 2032 linked to the S&P® 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and is a principal-at-risk unsecured note.
Investors may receive a 17.25% per annum contingent coupon, paid only when the index closes at or above 70% of the initial level on the relevant observation date. The notes auto-call at par plus the coupon if on any redemption determination date the index closes at or above 100% of the initial level, starting August 13, 2026.
If not called, at maturity investors receive par only if the final index level is at or above 50% of the initial level; otherwise the payoff is reduced one-for-one with the index decline, and can fall to zero. The index itself is highly engineered, employs up to 400% futures leverage, targets 40% volatility, and deducts a 4% per annum decrement, ensuring structural underperformance versus a similar index without such a fee. The preliminary estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $932.10 per security. The notes will not be listed on any exchange and all payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Trigger PLUS notes due February 16, 2029 linked to the worst performer of the State Street Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF and the Global X Uranium ETF. These unsecured notes pay no interest and expose holders to full principal loss.
At maturity, investors receive leveraged upside with a 283% participation rate if the worst-performing ETF finishes above its initial level, return of principal if it stays above a 60% downside threshold, and a 1:1 loss with no floor if it falls below that threshold. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $875.20 per $1,000 note, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and the issuer’s internal funding rate. The notes are not listed, secondary liquidity may be limited, and returns depend entirely on the final observation date level and Morgan Stanley’s credit.

The estimated value on the pricing date is $973.20 per security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and an internal funding rate. The securities will not be listed on any exchange, secondary trading may be limited, and all payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.

If held to February 10, 2028 and not called, investors get principal plus 125% of any stock gain, principal back if the final level is between 80% and 100% of the initial level, and a 1-for-1 loss below that threshold, potentially losing all principal.

They will not be listed on any exchange, may have limited secondary liquidity, and expose holders to both market risk in the underliers and Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.
