Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced contingent-income, principal-at-risk notes due May 5, 2031, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount with an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $934.10. The notes pay a contingent coupon (annualized 12.25%–13.25% range determined on the pricing date) only when the closing level of the S&P® 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index is at or above the coupon barrier (60% of the initial level) on observation dates. The notes are auto-callable on specified redemption determination dates if the closing level is at or above the call threshold (100% of the initial level). If not auto‑redeemed, maturity pay depends on the final level: full principal if at or above the downside threshold (60% of initial), otherwise principal is multiplied by final/initial (losses of 1% per 1% decline possible, including total loss).
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced Buffered PLUS notes due April 16, 2031, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal and pays no interest; estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $942.90 per security.
At maturity the payout is tied to the worst performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500®. If the worst performing underlier finishes above its initial level, investors receive principal plus 121% of that underlier's appreciation. If the worst performing underlier finishes between the initial level and a 15% buffer (85% of initial), investors receive principal. If the worst performing underlier finishes below the buffer, investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline beyond the buffer, subject to a 15% minimum payment at maturity. All payments are subject to issuer and guarantor credit risk and secondary market liquidity may be limited.

The securities offer a leveraged upside (leverage factor to be set on the pricing date between 182% and 197%), a capped positive payout if the index declines but stays above a 60% downside threshold, and full principal loss if the index falls below that threshold. The estimated value on the pricing date was approximately $964.20 per security; the issue price is $1,000, which includes issuance, structuring and hedging costs. All payments are subject to Morgan Stanley Finance LLC credit risk and are fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes may be automatically redeemed on periodic determination dates for early redemption payments that correspond to a return of approximately 9.00% per annum if both underliers meet call thresholds set at 85% of their initial levels. At maturity, if neither underlier has triggered an early call, investors receive $1,247.50 if both final levels are at or above their buffer levels (each buffer = 85% of initial); otherwise payments are reduced by the worst performing underlier beyond the 15% buffer, subject to a minimum payment of 15% of principal. All payments are subject to issuer and guarantor credit risk and the securities do not pay periodic interest.

The leverage factor will be set on the pricing date in the range 120%–130%. All payments are subject to Morgan Stanley's credit risk.
