MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering unsecured, zero-coupon structured “Jump Notes with Auto-Callable Feature” due August 29, 2031, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount and is linked to the worst performer of Amazon.com, Inc., Apple Inc. and NVIDIA Corporation common stocks.
The notes may be automatically redeemed on September 2, 2027 if, on August 31, 2027, the closing level of each stock is at or above 90% of its initial level, in which case holders receive a fixed $1,265 per note and no further payments. If not called, at maturity investors receive $1,000 plus an upside payment equal to 100% of the price appreciation of the worst-performing stock if all final levels exceed their initial levels; otherwise only the $1,000 principal is repaid.
Morgan Stanley estimates the value of each note on the pricing date at about $972.80, below the $1,000 issue price because of issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs. Payments depend entirely on Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit, the notes will not be listed, secondary liquidity may be limited, and U.S. holders are expected to be taxed under contingent payment debt instrument rules.
MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is issuing principal-at-risk structured notes linked to the S&P® 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, issue price of $1,000, and total aggregate principal of $900,000, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes price on August 20, 2026 and mature on August 25, 2031, with an estimated value on the pricing date of $934.20 per security, reflecting embedded costs.
The notes pay a contingent coupon at 17.00% per annum only if, on each observation date, the index is at or above the coupon barrier level of 2,368.835 (70% of the initial level of 3,384.05). They are automatically callable on scheduled redemption determination dates if the index is at or above the call threshold level of 3,384.05 (100% of initial), in which case investors receive principal plus the applicable coupon and no further payments.
If not called, at maturity investors receive principal back only if the final index level is at or above the downside threshold level of 1,692.025 (50% of initial); otherwise the payoff equals principal times the index performance factor, exposing investors to a potential total loss of principal. The underlier includes a 4% per annum decrement and uses leverage and volatility targeting, and all payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.
Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering callable contingent income securities due August 23, 2029, linked to the worst performer of the Nasdaq‑100® Technology Sector Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index, in an aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000.
Each $1,000 note pays a 10.50% per annum contingent coupon only if on an observation date all three indices are at or above their coupon barrier levels, set at 70% of their initial levels. Principal is fully at risk: if at maturity any index finishes below its downside threshold level, set at 60% of its initial level, repayment is reduced in proportion to the worst index’s decline and can be zero.
The notes are callable in whole (not in part) on specified redemption dates starting May 25, 2027, but only if a specified risk neutral valuation model indicates it is economically rational for Morgan Stanley to redeem; once redeemed, no further payments are made. The estimated value on the pricing date is $974.50 per $1,000 note, below the issue price, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs. Payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit and carry complex U.S. tax and withholding considerations, particularly for non‑U.S. holders.

Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering $1,200,000 of Trigger PLUS structured notes linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index. The notes have a stated principal of $1,000 per security, are issued at par, pay no interest and mature on August 23, 2030, with Morgan Stanley fully and unconditionally guaranteeing payments.
At maturity, holders receive leveraged upside of 209% of any index gain: for example, a 5% index rise would pay $1,104.50. Principal is returned in full only if the index is at or above the downside threshold of 487.856 (80% of the initial level of 609.82). Below that threshold, losses match the index decline on a 1-for-1 basis with no minimum payment; an 85% drop would pay $150. The estimated value on the pricing date is $969.40 per security, below the issue price, reflecting embedded costs, and all payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.
MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Buffered Jump Securities with an auto-call feature linked to the First Trust Nasdaq Cybersecurity ETF. Each note has a $1,000 principal amount, with an aggregate principal of $1,372,000, and pays no interest.
The notes auto-redeem on September 1, 2027 for $1,165 per security if on August 27, 2027 the ETF’s level is at or above the $93.45 call threshold (100% of the initial level). Otherwise they continue to maturity on August 24, 2028. At maturity, if the final level is above the initial level, investors receive principal plus a leveraged upside payment using a 125% participation rate. If the final level is between the buffer level of $84.105 (90% of initial) and the initial level, investors receive only principal. Below the buffer, principal is reduced 1% for each 1% decline beyond the 10% buffer, with a minimum payment equal to 10% of principal.
The securities are unsecured obligations of MSFL, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, and all payments are subject to their credit risk. The estimated value on the pricing date is $973.40 per security, below the $1,000 issue price, reflecting selling, structuring and hedging costs. The underlier is concentrated in cybersecurity, mid-cap and small-cap stocks, and the notes may be illiquid and carry complex U.S. tax treatment.
MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Trigger PLUS structured notes due August 24, 2028, linked to the worst performer among Alphabet Class C, Amazon.com, Meta Platforms Class A and NVIDIA common stock. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, with an aggregate principal amount of $500,000.
If on the August 21, 2028 observation date the final level of each stock is above its initial level, holders receive $1,000 plus a leveraged upside payment equal to 455% of the percentage gain of the worst performing stock. If any stock is at or below its initial level but all remain at or above 50% of their initial levels (the downside thresholds), investors receive only $1,000. If any stock closes below its 50% downside threshold, the maturity payment is $1,000 multiplied by the ratio of final to initial level of the worst performer, with no minimum, so the payment can be zero.
The estimated value on the pricing date is $971.90 per $1,000 security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and the issuer’s funding rate. The notes pay no interest, are unsecured and subject to Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit risk, and may have limited or no secondary market liquidity.

Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Trigger PLUS structured notes due February 25, 2028, linked to the worst performer of the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) and VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX). Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, with a total offering size of $500,000.
At maturity, if both underliers finish above their initial levels, investors receive $1,000 plus a 150% leveraged upside on the appreciation of the worst performer. If at least one is at or below its initial level but both stay at or above their downside thresholds of 75% of initial levels, investors receive only $1,000. If either finishes below its downside threshold, repayment is $1,000 times the performance factor of the worst underlier, resulting in a 1% principal loss for each 1% decline, with no minimum and potential total loss of principal.
The notes pay no interest, are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit risk, and may have limited or no secondary market. The estimated value on the pricing date is $959.20 per $1,000 note, reflecting embedded costs and dealer compensation. U.S. federal income tax treatment is uncertain; counsel views the notes as prepaid financial contracts and flags potential application of the “constructive ownership” regime.
