MORGAN STANLEY (MS), via Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering principal-at-risk Callable Contingent Income Securities due August 9, 2028, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes are linked to the worst performing of the Nasdaq-100® Technology Sector Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index.
Investors receive a 10.25% per annum contingent coupon only if on each observation date all three indices close at or above their respective coupon barrier levels (70% of the initial level in the examples). Principal is not protected: if at maturity any index finishes below its downside threshold level (also 70% of initial in the examples), repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst performer, potentially to zero.
The notes are callable in whole, but not in part, on specified redemption dates starting December 9, 2026, based solely on the output of a risk neutral valuation model, not on index performance. The issue price is $1,000 per security, while the estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $966.30 per security. U.S. tax disclosure indicates a treatment as prepaid financial contracts with ordinary-income coupons, and non-U.S. holders may face 30% withholding on coupons.
MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering Buffered PLUS structured notes maturing on September 14, 2029, linked to the worst performer of the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) and the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD). The notes pay no interest and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, with principal at risk.
At maturity, if both underliers finish above their initial levels, investors receive $1,000 plus a 257% leveraged upside on the worst performer. If at least one underlier is at or below its initial level but both stay at or above 80% of initial (20% buffer), investors receive only the $1,000 principal. If either underlier ends below its 80% buffer, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline beyond the 20% buffer, subject to a minimum payment of 20% of principal.
The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $926.70 per $1,000 note, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs. Investors face Morgan Stanley credit risk, limited or no secondary-market liquidity, high volatility in bitcoin and gold, and uncertain U.S. tax treatment, including potential “constructive ownership” and Section 871(m) considerations.
MORGAN STANLEY (MS), through Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, is offering structured “Jump Securities with Auto-Callable Feature” due December 17, 2027, linked to the worst performer of three sector ETFs: State Street Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE), iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) and State Street Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLF). Each security has a stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000 and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley but is principal at risk and pays no coupons.
The notes may be automatically redeemed quarterly from December 14, 2026 onward if the closing level of each ETF is at or above its call threshold, for early redemption payments corresponding to a return of about 13.00% per annum (e.g., $1,032.50 on the first call date, rising to $1,151.667 on the 12th). If held to maturity and all ETFs are at or above 90% of their initial levels, investors receive $1,162.50 per security; if all are at or above 60% but any is below 90%, only principal is returned. If any ETF finishes below 60%, repayment is reduced 1% for every 1% decline of the worst performer, potentially to zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $967.40 per security, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s credit spreads.

If not called, at maturity investors receive $1,800 per $1,000 if the final index level is at or above the call threshold, only principal back if it is between the call threshold and the downside threshold of 50% of the initial level, and a loss of 1% of principal for each 1% index decline below that threshold, potentially down to zero.

If the notes are not redeemed and on the final observation date any index is below 70% of its initial level, investors’ principal repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst-performing index, potentially to zero; if all are at or above their thresholds, principal is repaid in full.
