Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1,504,000 of Callable Contingent Income Securities due September 21, 2027, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes offer a 10.30% annual contingent coupon paid only if each underlier—SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE), S&P 500 Index (SPX) and Nasdaq‑100 Technology Sector Index (NDXT)—closes at or above its coupon barrier on the observation date.
The notes may be redeemed early, in whole, on scheduled redemption dates if a risk‑neutral valuation model indicates redemption is economically rational for the issuer. If held to maturity and each underlier finishes at or above its downside threshold (60% of initial levels), investors receive principal plus any final coupon; otherwise, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst performer, potentially to zero. Issue price is $1,000 per note; agent commissions are $18.75 per note, with proceeds to the issuer of $981.25 per note ($1,475,800 total). The estimated value on the pricing date is $955.70 per note. The securities are unsecured, subject to issuer credit risk, and will not be listed.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering $1,600,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities linked to Meta Platforms, Inc. (Class A), maturing on April 9, 2027. Each note has a $1,000 denomination and pays a 9.00% per annum contingent coupon only when Meta’s closing level is at or above the coupon barrier of $500.962 (70% of the initial level) on the applicable observation date.
The notes may be automatically redeemed on scheduled dates if Meta’s closing level is at or above the call threshold of $715.66 (100% of the initial level), returning the stated principal amount plus any contingent coupon for that period. If not called, and at maturity the final level is at or above the downside threshold of $429.396 (60%), investors receive principal back (plus the final coupon if payable). If the final level is below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline from the initial level, up to a total loss.
The initial level is $715.66 (strike date: October 6, 2025). The estimated value on the pricing date is $969.00 per security.

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, amended a preliminary pricing supplement for Contingent Income Memory Auto-Callable Securities due October 31, 2030 linked to the S&P 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index.
The notes offer a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 8.00%, payable only if the underlier closes at or above the coupon barrier set at 50% of the initial level on each observation date; missed coupons may be paid later if the barrier is met (“memory”). They are auto-callable if the underlier is at or above the call threshold of 90% of the initial level on scheduled redemption determination dates starting October 28, 2026.
If not called, at maturity investors receive principal only if the final level is at or above the 50% downside threshold; otherwise, losses match the underlier’s decline on a 1-for-1 basis and could result in zero repayment.
