Each security has a $1,000 issue price and a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 15.20%. The securities pay coupons only if observation-date closing levels meet the coupon barrier and can auto-redeem early if the underlier meets the call threshold; at maturity investors face full principal risk if the final level is below the downside threshold.

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering principal-at-risk, contingent-income, auto-callable securities linked to the S&P® 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index with an original issue price of $1,000 per security. The notes pay a contingent coupon of 17.00% per annum on each coupon payment date only if the underlier's closing level on the applicable observation date is at or above a coupon barrier (70% of the initial level). The notes may be automatically redeemed early if the underlier closes at or above the call threshold (100% of the initial level) on any redemption determination date, in which case holders receive the stated principal plus the contingent coupon for that period. If not called, at maturity investors receive principal if the final level is at or above the downside threshold (50% of the initial level); if the final level is below that threshold, investors suffer a pro rata principal loss equal to the underlier's decline. The notes are unsecured obligations of MSFL and are fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley; all payments are subject to issuer credit risk. Pricing date and strike date are May 13, 2026, with final observation May 13, 2031 and maturity May 16, 2031.

At maturity, if the final level is below the downside threshold (60% of the initial level), principal is reduced pro rata by the underlier’s performance factor and could be zero.

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Principal at Risk auto-callable securities linked to the S&P® 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index with a $1,000 stated principal amount per security and an original issue price of $1,000. The securities pay a 14.50% annual contingent coupon on specified observation dates only if the underlier is at or above a coupon barrier of 60% of the initial level. They may be automatically redeemed on scheduled redemption determination dates beginning November 16, 2026 if the underlier is at or above the call threshold (100% of the initial level). If not redeemed, repayment at maturity (May 20, 2031) depends on the final level: investors receive principal only if the final level is at or above the downside threshold of 60% of the initial level; if below, the payment equals principal multiplied by the performance factor (final level/initial level), exposing investors to full principal loss. Estimated value at pricing was approximately $925.80 per security.
Key qualifiers: the underlier includes a 4.0% per annum daily decrement, uses intraday rebalancing with leverage, has limited live history (inception August 30, 2024), and all payments are subject to the issuer’s and guarantor’s credit risk.
