Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Partial Principal at Risk Notes due August 18, 2031, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, linked to the Class A common stock of Space Exploration Technologies Corp. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount and pays no interest.
At maturity, investors receive $1,000 plus 100% of any appreciation in the underlier, capped at a maximum payment of $2,395 per note. If the stock falls, investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline, but not below the partial principal return amount of 95% of principal. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $946.20 per note, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s funding rate.
The notes are unsecured and subject to the credit risk of MSFL and Morgan Stanley, will not be listed, and may have limited or no secondary market. The underlier began trading on June 12, 2026 and had a closing level of $138.74 on August 10, 2026, implying limited trading history and potentially higher risk.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Contingent Income Memory Buffered Auto-Callable Securities due July 26, 2029, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley and linked to the worst performer of the State Street SPDR S&P Metals & Mining ETF (XME) and the VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX). Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and an original issue price of $1,000, while the issuer’s estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $943.70 per security.
The notes pay a contingent coupon at 8.00% per annum, only if on the relevant observation date both ETFs are at or above their coupon barrier levels (50% of initial levels); missed coupons can be “memorized” and paid later if a subsequent observation meets the barrier. The securities are subject to automatic early redemption quarterly starting August 23, 2027 if both ETFs are at or above their call thresholds (100% of initial levels), in which case investors receive principal plus the current and any previously unpaid coupons.
If the notes are not called and at maturity both ETFs are at or above their buffer levels (83.40% of initial levels), investors receive full principal plus any payable coupons. If either ETF is below its buffer, principal is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst performing underlier beyond the 16.60% buffer, but not below the minimum payment at maturity of 16.60% of principal. All payments are subject to the credit risk of MSFL and Morgan Stanley, and investors do not participate in any upside of the ETFs.

The notes pay no interest and are principal-at-risk obligations issued under the Series A Global Medium-Term Notes program.
At maturity, investors receive $1,000 plus an upside payment if the index finishes above its initial level, with a 102% participation rate80% buffer levelminimum payment of 20% of principal.

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Contingent Income Memory Buffered Auto-Callable Securities due September 1, 2027, linked to the common stock of Amazon.com, Inc., fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price, with an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $985.40.
Investors may receive a contingent coupon at an annual rate of at least 17.00%, payable only when Amazon’s closing level on an observation date is at or above a coupon barrier equal to 85% of the initial level, with unpaid coupons potentially paid later if the barrier is subsequently met. The notes are auto-callable on specified redemption determination dates if the stock closes at or above a call threshold equal to 100% of the initial level, returning principal plus applicable coupons. At maturity, if not called, principal is repaid only if the final level is at or above the 85% buffer level; below that, repayment is reduced using a 1.1765 downside factor, and the amount can fall to zero. All payments are subject to MSFL’s and Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and there is no minimum payment at maturity.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering market-linked notes tied to Bloom Energy Corporation Class A stock, maturing August 16, 2029. Each security has a $1,000 face amount and an estimated value on the pricing date of about $947.10, reflecting issuance and hedging costs borne by investors.
The notes pay a quarterly contingent coupon at a rate of at least 38.00% per annum only when Bloom Energy’s closing price is at or above the coupon threshold price of $105.315 (50% of the $210.63 starting price); missed coupons can be paid later under a memory feature. Starting about six months after issuance, the notes are auto-callable quarterly if the stock closes at or above the starting price, returning $1,000 plus due and unpaid coupons.
If not called, principal repayment at maturity depends on the final stock price. Investors receive $1,000 only if the ending price is at or above the downside threshold of $105.315; otherwise they receive $1,000 times the performance factor, incurring losses greater than 50% and potentially the entire investment. The notes do not pay fixed interest, do not participate in stock upside, are subject to Morgan Stanley credit risk, and may have limited or no secondary market liquidity.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due February 25, 2028, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and is linked to the worst performer of the Nasdaq-100® Technology Sector Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index, with principal at risk.
Investors may receive a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 8.55% on scheduled coupon payment dates, but only if on the related observation date the closing level of each index is at or above its coupon barrier level, set at 70% of its initial level. The notes are auto-callable quarterly starting November 19, 2026 if each index is at or above its call threshold level, equal to 100% of its initial level, in which case investors receive $1,000 plus the applicable coupon and no further payments.
If not redeemed early, at maturity investors receive $1,000 per security only if each index is at or above its downside threshold level, also 70% of its initial level; otherwise the payoff is reduced in proportion to the decline of the worst-performing index and can fall to zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $969.30 per security, reflecting offering costs and issuer pricing.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering principal-at-risk structured notes linked to Alphabet Inc. Class A common stock, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, maturing on September 1, 2027. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000.
Investors may receive a contingent coupon at an annual rate of at least 16.00%, payable only if the underlier’s closing level on an observation date is at or above the coupon barrier level of 85% of the initial level, with unpaid coupons potentially paid later if conditions are met. The notes are auto-callable on specified redemption determination dates if the underlier is at or above 100% of the initial level, returning principal plus due coupons and ending further payments.
If not redeemed early, and the final level is at or above the buffer level of 85% of the initial level, investors receive full principal plus any payable coupon. If the final level falls below the buffer, maturity payment is reduced by 1.1765% of principal for each 1% decline beyond the 15% buffer, potentially to zero. The estimated value is approximately $985.40 per $1,000 security due to embedded costs. All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit, secondary market liquidity may be limited, and U.S. tax treatment is complex and uncertain.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering market-linked, principal-at-risk securities linked to the lowest performing of Bloom Energy Class A and Generac Holdings common stock, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, maturing on August 23, 2029.
Each security has a $1,000 face amount. If on the August 24, 2027 call date both stocks close at or above 50% of their starting prices (their threshold prices), the notes are automatically called and pay a fixed $1,400 per security (a 40% return), with no further payments.
If not called, at maturity investors receive: (i) $1,000 + 425% or more of the positive return of the lowest performing stock if it finishes above its starting price; (ii) $1,000 if the lowest performer finishes between 50% and 100% of its starting price; or (iii) $1,000 plus the full stock loss if it ends below 50%, meaning a loss of more than 50% and possibly all principal.
The current estimated value on the pricing date is about $906.30 per $1,000 security, reflecting embedded issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs. The notes pay no interest, provide no dividends, are subject to Morgan Stanley credit risk, may have limited or no secondary market, and involve complex tax and market risks.

At maturity, if the index is above its initial level, holders receive principal plus a leveraged upside payment based on a 206% leverage factor. If the final level is at or below the initial level but at or above 80% of the initial level (the buffer level), investors receive only principal. Below the buffer, investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline beyond the 20% buffer, subject to a minimum payment of 20% of principal. The notes pay no interest, are subject to Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit risk, may be illiquid, and carry complex U.S. tax and regulatory considerations.
