Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering market-linked notes due August 29, 2030, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount, pays no periodic interest and is an unsecured obligation subject to the issuer’s and guarantor’s credit risk.
At maturity, if the final level of both underliers—the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500® Index—is above its initial level, investors receive $1,000 plus 100% of the appreciation of the worst performing index, capped at a maximum payment of $1,375 to $1,425 per note. If the final level of either index is at or below its initial level, investors receive only the $1,000 principal.
The notes will not be listed on any exchange, and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC may make a secondary market but is not obligated to do so. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $951.80 per note, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs. For U.S. tax purposes, the securities are expected to be treated as contingent payment debt instruments, requiring annual accrual of taxable interest income.
