MORGAN STANLEY (MS), via Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Contingent Income Memory Buffered Auto-Callable Securities linked to the iShares Semiconductor ETF. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, with a total offering size of $500,000, and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
The notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 23.60%, but only if on each observation date the ETF’s closing level is at or above the coupon barrier of $440.592 (80% of the initial level). Missed coupons can be paid later (“memory” feature) if a future observation meets the barrier. The notes are automatically redeemed if on any redemption determination date the ETF is at or above the call threshold of $550.74 (100% of the initial level), returning principal plus the applicable coupon(s).
If not called early, at maturity investors receive full principal only if the final ETF level is at or above the buffer level of $440.592. Below this, principal loss is amplified at 1.25% for each 1% decline beyond the 20% buffer, with no minimum payment, so the investment can result in a total loss. The estimated value on the pricing date is $984.10 per $1,000 note, reflecting embedded fees and hedging costs. All payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.
Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Enhanced Buffered Jump Securities due September 2, 2027, linked to an equally weighted basket of seven semiconductor-related stocks. The notes are unsecured, pay no interest, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
Each $1,000 security offers a fixed upside payment of $169.40 (16.94%) if the final basket level on the August 30, 2027 observation date is at or above the 80 buffer level (80% of the initial level 100). If the final level falls below the buffer, investors lose 1.25% of principal for every 1% decline beyond the 20% buffer, with no minimum repayment and potential loss of the entire investment. The aggregate principal amount is $5,000,000, issue price is $1,000 per security, and the estimated value on the pricing date is $987.10, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs. All payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk.
Morgan Stanley (MS), via Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering structured “Buffered Jump Securities” linked to an eight-stock basket, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount, with an aggregate issuance of $3.923 million.
The notes can be automatically redeemed on September 2, 2027 if the basket level on August 30, 2027 is at or above 100% of the initial level, paying a fixed $1,238 per note and then terminating. If held to August 17, 2028, investors receive upside equal to 125% of any basket appreciation; if the basket finishes between 85% and 100% of the initial level, only principal is returned.
If the final basket level is below 85% of the initial level, investors lose 1.1765% of principal for each 1% decline beyond the 15% buffer, with no minimum payment, so the entire investment can be lost. The notes pay no interest, are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and their estimated value at pricing is $977 per $1,000 note, reflecting embedded costs.

Morgan Stanley (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering principal-at-risk “Jump Securities with Auto-Callable Feature” due August 17, 2029, linked to the worst performer among the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Russell 2000 Index and State Street Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price, with an aggregate principal of $1,817,000.
The notes may be automatically redeemed on August 24, 2027 for $1,245 per security if all three underliers are at or above their initial (100%) levels on the first determination date. If not called, at maturity holders receive principal plus an upside payment equal to 175% of the gain of the worst-performing underlier if all final levels exceed initial levels, only principal if each is above its 60% downside threshold, and a loss of 1% of principal for each 1% decline of the worst performer if any underlier finishes below its downside threshold, potentially reducing the payoff to zero.
The securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, and pay no interest. The estimated value on the pricing date is $967.80 per $1,000 note, reflecting embedded costs and issuer pricing.

If the final level is below the downside threshold, repayment equals $1,000 multiplied by the performance factor (final level ÷ initial level), causing a 1% principal loss for each 1% decline, down to a possible zero payment.
The estimated value on the pricing date is $987.10 per security, below the issue price due to structuring and distribution costs. The notes are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, may have limited or no secondary market liquidity, and carry complex U.S. tax and commodity-linked risks described in detail in the risk and tax sections.
