Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering principal at risk Jump Securities with an auto-call feature due August 30, 2029, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley and linked to the worst performing of the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and issue price, with an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $949.20, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by investors.
If on the first determination date, September 2, 2027, the closing level of each index is at or above its 100% call threshold level, the notes are automatically redeemed on September 7, 2027 for an early redemption payment of $1,137.50 per security, and no further payments are made. If not called, the maturity payoff depends on the final level of the worst performing index: investors receive principal plus an upside payment equal to 125% (participation rate) of the index gain if both indices finish above their initial levels; only principal if both are at or above their 75% downside threshold levels; and a loss of 1% of principal for each 1% decline in the worst performer if either finishes below its downside threshold, potentially resulting in a zero return of principal.
The securities pay no interest, are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and may be illiquid, with secondary market prices likely below the $1,000 issue price. Historical reference levels include a Russell 2000 closing level of 2,946.101 and S&P 500 closing level of 7,437.63 on July 30, 2026, but past performance does not predict future results.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities due August 30, 2029, linked to the worst performer of the Nasdaq-100 Index, Russell 2000 Index and S&P 500 Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each note has a stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000, with no interest payments and principal at risk.
At maturity, if the final level of every index is at or above its respective downside threshold level (70% of its initial level), investors receive $1,000 plus an upside payment of $302.50 to $322.50 per note, a fixed return of 30.25% to 32.25% regardless of further index gains. If any index closes below its downside threshold, repayment equals $1,000 multiplied by the performance factor of the worst performing index, producing a 1% loss of principal for each 1% index decline, with no minimum payment and the possibility of a total loss.
The notes are unsecured obligations of MSFL, subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit, and the estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $950.20 per note, below the issue price due to selling, structuring and hedging costs. The issuer highlights significant risks including capped upside, full downside exposure below the threshold, potential illiquidity in secondary trading, valuation model subjectivity and uncertain U.S. federal income tax treatment, including possible future changes affecting derivative contracts.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities, $1,000 principal amount each, due August 29, 2030, linked to the worst performer of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq-100 Index and Russell 2000 Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes pay no interest and do not guarantee return of principal. At maturity, if the final level of each index is at or above its downside threshold level of 70% of its initial level, investors receive $1,000 plus a fixed upside payment of $400–$420 per note. If any index finishes below its threshold, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline in the worst performing index, and the payment can be zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $941.50 per note. All payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, there is no assured secondary market, and the U.S. federal income tax treatment is described as uncertain.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Contingent Income Memory Auto-Callable Securities due September 5, 2031, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and is linked to the S&P 500 Futures 40% Intraday 4% Decrement VT Index, a relatively new, rules-based, volatility-targeting index with a 4% per annum decrement.
The notes may pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 13.25%–14.25%, but only if the index closing level on each observation date is at or above a coupon barrier of 60% of the initial level; missed coupons can be paid later if the barrier is subsequently met. They are automatically callable on scheduled dates if the index is at or above 100% of the initial level, returning principal plus due coupons. If held to maturity and not previously called, investors receive principal only if the final index level is at or above a downside threshold of 60% of the initial level; otherwise, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the index loss, and can be zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $930.20 per $1,000 security, and all payments are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk with limited expected liquidity.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is issuing Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities due August 29, 2030, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index. Each security has a stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000 and pays no interest.
At maturity, if the final index level on August 26, 2030 is at or above 70% of the initial level, holders receive $1,000 plus a fixed upside payment of $355 to $375 per security, representing 35.50% to 37.50% of principal, regardless of how strongly the index performs above the threshold. If the final level is below 70% of the initial level, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% index decline, with no minimum payment; investors can lose their entire investment.
The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $943.50 per security, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s funding rate. Returns depend solely on the observation-date level, are subject to market and volatility risks of equity futures, and all payments are exposed to the unsecured credit risk of MSFL and Morgan Stanley.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Trigger Jump Securities due August 30, 2029, linked to the Nasdaq-100 Index®, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes pay no interest and are principal-at-risk unsecured obligations.
At maturity, each $1,000 security pays: (i) if the final index level is greater than or equal to the initial level, $1,000 plus a fixed upside payment of $340.00 to $360.00; (ii) if the final level is below the initial but at or above the downside threshold level of 70% of the initial level, $1,000; (iii) if the final level is below the downside threshold, $1,000 multiplied by the performance factor (final level / initial level), resulting in a 1% loss of principal for each 1% index decline and potentially zero repayment. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $948.50 per security, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs that reduce economic terms.
Key risks include the lack of principal protection or interest, capped upside, reliance on the single observation date level, potential high volatility of the Nasdaq-100 Index®, Morgan Stanley’s and MSFL’s credit risk, limited or no secondary market liquidity, conflicts of interest in calculation and hedging, and uncertain U.S. federal income tax treatment of the notes as prepaid financial contracts.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering market-linked notes due September 6, 2030, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The unsecured notes pay no interest and return at least the $1,000 stated principal per note at maturity, subject to issuer credit risk.
The payoff depends on the worst performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500® Index. If the final level of each index is above its initial level, holders receive principal plus 100% of the worst index’s gain, capped at $1,505 to $1,555 per note (150.50%–155.50% of principal). If either index finishes at or below its initial level, investors receive only principal. The notes are not listed, have an estimated value of about $971 per note on the pricing date, and are expected to be treated as contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. tax purposes, requiring annual interest accruals.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (Trigger PLUS) due September 5, 2031, linked to the S&P 500® Futures Excess Return Index and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000, with an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $964.20, reflecting embedded issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by investors.
At maturity, if the final index level is above the initial level, investors receive $1,000 plus a leveraged upside payment based on a leverage factor between 231.50% and 236.50%. If the final level is at or below the initial level but at or above the downside threshold of 70% of the initial level, investors receive only $1,000. If the final level is below the downside threshold, investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% index decline, with no minimum payment, so the entire investment can be lost. All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit, secondary market liquidity may be limited, and the U.S. federal income tax treatment is uncertain.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering principal-at-risk structured notes due July 12, 2029, linked to the worst performing of the State Street SPDR S&P Metals & Mining ETF (XME) and the VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX), fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
Each $1,000 security pays a contingent coupon at 8.00% per annum, but only if on each observation date both ETFs close at or above 50% of their initial levels; missed coupons can be paid later if the condition is subsequently met. Starting August 9, 2027, the notes are automatically callable on monthly determination dates if both ETFs are at or above 100% of initial, returning principal plus the current and any unpaid coupons.
If not called, at maturity investors receive principal back only if the final level of each ETF is at or above an 85% buffer level. Otherwise, the payoff is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst ETF beyond the 15% buffer, with a minimum repayment of 15% of principal, plus any final contingent coupon if conditions are met. All payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit, and the estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $943.10 per $1,000 security due to embedded costs.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Trigger Jump Securities due August 31, 2028, unsecured notes linked to the worst performing of the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, pays no interest and does not guarantee any return of principal. At maturity, if the final level of each index is at or above its initial level, investors receive $1,000 plus a fixed upside payment of $275 to $285 per security.
If either index is below its initial level but both remain at or above 80% of their initial levels, investors receive only the $1,000 principal. If either index finishes below its 80% downside threshold, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline in the worst performer, with no minimum payment, so the entire investment can be lost. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $955 per security, reflecting issuance and hedging costs. The notes are intended for investors willing to accept equity index risk, limited upside and significant downside exposure, and to hold to maturity.
