MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering principal-at-risk Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities maturing September 2, 2031, linked to the S&P® U.S. Equity Momentum 40% VT 4% Decrement Index and fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
Investors receive a 16.65% per annum contingent coupon only if the index is at or above a coupon barrier set at 65% of the initial level on each observation date; otherwise no coupon is paid. The notes are automatically called, starting February 26, 2027, if on a redemption determination date the index is at or above the initial level (100%), returning principal plus the applicable coupon.
If not called and the final index level is at or above a downside threshold of 60% of the initial level, investors receive principal back (plus any final coupon). If it is below 60%, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% index decline, potentially to zero. The issue price is $1,000 per security, while the estimated value on the pricing date is about $935.70, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs. All payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.
Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering unsecured market-linked notes due August 28, 2031 linked to the Russell 2000® Index. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley and are issued in $1,000 denominations with an issue price of $1,000 per note.
The notes pay no periodic interest. At maturity, investors receive at least the stated principal amount, subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk. If the index’s final level is above its initial level, the maturity payment equals principal plus 100% of the index’s gain, capped at a maximum payment of $1,676 per note (167.60% of principal). If the final level is at or below the initial level, only principal is repaid.
The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $975.50 per note, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange, and secondary trading, if any, may be limited and at prices below par. Tax treatment is expected to follow contingent payment debt instrument rules, requiring accrual of interest income over the term. The underlier is the small‑cap Russell 2000® Index, which can be more volatile than large-cap indices, adding index and liquidity risk to the issuer’s credit risk.
Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Trigger PLUS structured notes due February 25, 2028, whose return depends on the worst performing of the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) and the VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX). Each security has a stated principal amount of $1,000 and pays no interest.
At maturity, investors receive $1,000 plus a leveraged upside payment if the final level of each underlier is above its initial level; the upside is 150% of the appreciation of the worst performer. If at least one underlier is at or below its initial level but both stay at or above 75% of their initial levels, investors receive only principal. If either underlier closes below its downside threshold (75% of its initial level: $310.38 for GLD and $72.998 for GDX), repayment is reduced 1% for every 1% decline of the worst performer, with no minimum payment, so the investment can be fully lost.
The initial levels are $413.84 for GLD and $97.33 for GDX as of August 19, 2026. The estimated value on the pricing date is about $959.70 per $1,000 security, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by investors. All payments are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, and are subject to the issuer’s and guarantor’s credit risk, as well as market, liquidity, commodity, ETF-tracking and tax risks described in detail.

Morgan Stanley (MS), as guarantor for Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering principal-at-risk Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due July 31, 2028, linked to the worst-performing of the Nasdaq-100® Technology Sector Index and the Russell 2000® Index. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price, with an estimated value on the pricing date of about $970.10.
Investors may receive a 9.00% per annum contingent coupon, paid only if on each observation date both indices close at or above their coupon barrier levels, initially set at 70% of each index’s initial level. The notes are auto-callable on specified redemption determination dates if both indices are at or above their call threshold levels, set at 100% of their initial levels, in which case investors receive principal plus the applicable coupon and no further payments.
If the notes are not redeemed early, at maturity investors receive principal back only if each index’s final level is at or above its downside threshold level, also 70% of initial. If either index finishes below its downside threshold, the payout is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst-performing index, potentially down to zero, and no upside participation is provided. All payments are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley (MS), via Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Contingent Income Memory Auto-Callable Securities due August 21, 2031 linked to the S&P® 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index. The notes have a stated principal amount of $1,000 per security and an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000.
Investors may receive a contingent coupon at 15.75% per annum, payable only when the index closing level on an observation date is at or above the coupon barrier of 2,433.809 (70% of the 3,476.87 initial level). Missed coupons can be paid later if the barrier is met, but may be lost entirely if it is not.
The notes are auto-callable: if on any redemption determination date the index is at or above the call threshold of 3,476.87 (100% of initial), investors receive early redemption of principal plus the contingent coupon and any unpaid coupons. If held to maturity and the final level is at or above the downside threshold of 2,086.122 (60% of initial), principal is repaid. If the final level is below this threshold, repayment is reduced in proportion to the index decline and can be zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is $945.10 per security, below the $1,000 issue price, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs. All payments are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley.
MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Buffered Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (Buffered PLUS) due August 28, 2031, linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and pays no interest.
At maturity, if the index is above its initial level, holders receive $1,000 plus a leveraged upside payment equal to 212% of the index gain. If the index is between the initial level and the buffer level, set at 85% of the initial level, investors receive only $1,000. Below the buffer, principal is reduced 1% for each 1% decline beyond the 15% buffer, subject to a minimum payment of 15% of principal ($150 per $1,000). The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $970.40 per security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s credit spreads, and the notes are subject to Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit risk with limited secondary market liquidity.

Morgan Stanley (symbol MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering principal-at-risk Trigger Step Securities linked to the least performing of the S&P 500® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index, maturing on August 22, 2031. Each Security has an issue price and principal amount of $10 and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
If on the Final Valuation Date each index closes at or above its Step Barrier (100% of its Initial Level), holders receive $10 plus the greater of (i) a fixed Step Return of 76.00%–78.00% (set on the Trade Date) and (ii) the index return of the least performing index. If at least one index closes below its Step Barrier but both remain at or above their Downside Thresholds (75% of Initial Level), investors receive only the $10 principal. If either index closes below its Downside Threshold, the payoff is $10 plus $10 times the return of the least performing index, exposing investors to a loss proportionate to the full negative performance, up to a total loss of principal.
The Securities pay no interest or dividends and must generally be held to maturity to benefit from the contingent principal protection and Step Return. The indicative estimated value on the Trade Date is approximately $9.843 per $10 Security, reflecting structuring and hedging costs. Any payment depends on Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s creditworthiness, and there may be little or no secondary market.
