Morgan Stanley Finance LLC announced a preliminary pricing supplement for Trigger PLUS, principal-at-risk notes due November 30, 2028, linked to the worst performer among the S&P 500, Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index and Russell 2000. The notes pay no interest and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
At maturity, holders receive the $1,000 stated principal plus a leveraged upside if each index ends above its initial level; the leverage factor will be set in a 167%–177% range. If any index finishes at or below its initial level but all remain at or above 70% of initial, repayment is at par. If any index ends below its 70% downside threshold, repayment falls 1% for each 1% decline in the worst-performing index, and could be zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $962.40 per note. The notes won’t be listed; sales are through fee-based accounts, with a structuring fee up to $6.25 per note. All payments are subject to the issuer’s and guarantor’s credit risk.

The price to public is $1,000 per security, for a total offering of $4,839,000; agent commissions are $124,604.25 and proceeds to the issuer are $4,714,395.75.
The notes may be automatically called on November 2, 2026 for a fixed cash payment of $1,430 per $1,000 face amount (a 43.00% call premium). If not called, the maturity payoff is based on the lowest performing stock: 232% leveraged upside if that stock ends above its starting price; a contingent absolute return up to 40% if it is between the starting and 60% threshold prices; and 1:1 downside below the threshold, where investors can lose more than 40%, up to all principal.
The current estimated value is $918.70 per security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s internal funding rate. The securities pay no interest, forgo dividends, are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and will not be listed on an exchange.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC filed an amendment to a 424(b)(2) preliminary pricing supplement for Dual Directional Trigger Participation Securities linked to the S&P 500 Index, due May 10, 2027 and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. These principal-at-risk notes pay no interest and are unsecured obligations.
At maturity, investors gain 100% of S&P 500 upside, but returns are capped at a maximum upside payment of $1,060 per $1,000.

The notes pay no interest and return principal at maturity; if the final index level exceeds the initial level, holders receive principal plus an upside payment.

The preliminary estimated value is approximately $972.30 per note, reflecting issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs and an internal funding rate.
