PRICING SUPPLEMENT Filed Pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2) Registration Statement Nos. 333-270004 and 333-270004-01 Dated December    , 2024

JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC Trigger In-Digital Notes

Linked to a Brent Crude Oil Futures Contract due on or about March 31, 2026

Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Investment Description

Trigger In-Digital Notes, which we refer to as the “Notes,” are unsecured and unsubordinated debt securities issued by JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC (“JPMorgan Financial”), the payment on which is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., with a return linked to the performance of the first nearby month futures contract for Brent crude oil traded on ICE Futures Europe (Bloomberg ticker: CO1) or, on any day that falls on the last trading day of such contract (all pursuant to the rules of ICE Futures Europe), the second nearby month futures contract for Brent crude oil (Bloomberg ticker: CO2) (the “Underlying”).  If the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold), JPMorgan Financial will repay your principal amount at maturity and pay a return equal to the Digital Return.  The Digital Return will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement and is expected to be between 10.00% and 11.55%.  However, if the Final Value is less than the Downside Threshold, JPMorgan Financial will repay less than your principal amount at maturity, if anything, resulting in a loss of principal that is proportionate to the negative Underlying Return.  In this case, you will have full downside exposure to the Underlying from the Initial Value to the Final Value and could lose all of your principal amount.  In no event, however, will the payment at maturity be less than $0.  Investing in the Notes involves significant risks.  You may lose some or all of your principal amount.  The Notes will not pay interest.  The contingent repayment of principal and the Digital Return apply only if you hold the Notes to maturity.  Any payment on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the Notes, and the creditworthiness of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as guarantor of the Notes.  If JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on their payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Notes and you could lose your entire investment.

 

THE NOTES ARE SIGNIFICANTLY RISKIER THAN CONVENTIONAL DEBT INSTRUMENTS. JPMORGAN FINANCIAL IS NOT NECESSARILY OBLIGATED TO REPAY THE FULL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE NOTES AT MATURITY, AND THE NOTES CAN HAVE DOWNSIDE MARKET RISK SIMILAR TO THE UNDERLYING. THIS MARKET RISK IS IN ADDITION TO THE CREDIT RISK INHERENT IN PURCHASING A DEBT OBLIGATION OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL FULLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY GUARANTEED BY JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE THE NOTES IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR ARE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTING IN THE NOTES. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE RISKS DESCRIBED UNDER “KEY RISKS” BEGINNING ON PAGE 6 OF THIS PRICING SUPPLEMENT, UNDER “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE S-2 OF THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT, IN ANNEX A TO THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS ADDENDUM AND UNDER “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE PS-11 OF THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT SUPPLEMENT BEFORE PURCHASING ANY NOTES. EVENTS RELATING TO ANY OF THOSE RISKS, OR OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OF, AND THE RETURN ON, YOUR NOTES. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES. THE NOTES WILL NOT BE LISTED ON ANY SECURITIES EXCHANGE.

Note Offering

We are offering Trigger In-Digital Notes linked to a Brent Crude Oil Futures Contract.  The Notes are offered at a minimum investment of $1,000 in denominations of $10 and integral multiples thereof.  The Digital Return, Initial Value, Digital Barrier and Downside Threshold will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement.  The actual Digital Return will not be less than the bottom of the range listed below, but you should be willing to invest in the Notes if the Digital Return were set equal to the bottom of that range.

Supplemental Terms of the Notes

For purposes of the accompanying product supplement, the first nearby month futures contract on Brent crude oil traded on ICE Futures Europe (Bloomberg ticker: CO1) or, on any day that falls on the last trading day of such contract (all pursuant to the rules of ICE Futures Europe), the second nearby month futures contract for Brent crude oil (Bloomberg ticker: CO2) is a “Commodity Futures Contract.”

The Notes are not commodity futures contracts or swaps and are not regulated under the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the “Commodity Exchange Act”). The Notes are offered pursuant to an exemption from regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act, commonly known as the hybrid instrument exemption, that is available to Notes that have one or more payments indexed to the value, level or rate of one or more commodities, as set out in section 2(f) of that statute. Accordingly, you are not afforded any protection provided by the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulation promulgated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Any values of the Underlying, and any values derived therefrom, included in this pricing supplement may be corrected, in the event of manifest error or inconsistency, by amendment of this pricing supplement and the corresponding terms of the Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the indenture governing the Notes, that amendment will become effective without consent of the holders of the Notes or any other party.

 

 

Investor Suitability

The Notes may be suitable for you if, among other considerations: t    You fully understand the risks inherent in an investment in the Notes, including the risk of loss of your entire principal amount. t    You can tolerate a loss of all or a substantial portion of your investment and are willing to make an investment that may have the same downside market risk as a hypothetical investment in the Underlying. t    You believe the Contract Price is likely to be at or above the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold) on the Final Valuation Date and will not increase by a greater percentage than the Digital Return over the term of the Notes. t    You understand and accept that you will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying and your potential return is limited to the Digital Return. t    You would be willing to invest in the Notes if the Digital Return were set equal to the bottom of the range indicated on the cover hereof (the actual Digital Return will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement and will not be less than the bottom of the range indicated on the cover hereof). t    You can tolerate fluctuations in the price of the Notes prior to maturity that may be similar to or exceed the downside fluctuations in the price of the Underlying. t    You do not seek current income from your investment. t    You are willing and able to hold the Notes to maturity. t    You accept that there may be little or no secondary market for the Notes and that any secondary market will depend in large part on the price, if any, at which J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, which we refer to as JPMS, is willing to trade the Notes. t    You understand and accept the risks associated with the Underlying. t    You are willing to assume the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. for all payments under the Notes, and understand that if JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. default on their obligations, you may not receive any amounts due to you including any repayment of principal.

The Notes may not be suitable for you if, among other considerations: t    You do not fully understand the risks inherent in an investment in the Notes, including the risk of loss of your entire principal amount. t    You require an investment designed to provide a full return of principal at maturity. t    You cannot tolerate a loss of all or a substantial portion of your investment, or you are not willing to make an investment that may have the same downside market risk as a hypothetical investment in the Underlying. t    You believe the Contract Price is unlikely to be at or above the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold) on the Final Valuation Date or will increase by a greater percentage than the Digital Return over the term of the Notes. t    You seek an investment that participates in any appreciation of the Underlying or that has unlimited return potential. t    You would be unwilling to invest in the Notes if the Digital Return were set equal to the bottom of the range indicated on the cover hereof (the actual Digital Return will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement and will not be less than the bottom of the range indicated on the cover hereof). t    You cannot tolerate fluctuations in the price of the Notes prior to maturity that may be similar to or exceed the downside fluctuations in the price of the Underlying. t    You seek current income from your investment. t    You are unwilling or unable to hold the Notes to maturity or seek an investment for which there will be an active secondary market. t    You do not understand or accept the risks associated with the Underlying. t    You are not willing to assume the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. for all payments under the Notes, including any repayment of principal.

The suitability considerations identified above are not exhaustive. Whether or not the Notes are a suitable investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers have carefully considered the suitability of an investment in the Notes in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the “Key Risks” section of this pricing supplement, the “Risk Factors” sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement and Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum for risks related to an investment in the Notes. For more information on the Underlying, please see the section titled “The Underlying” below.

 

 

What Are the Tax Consequences of the Notes?

You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 2-I. The following discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of Notes.

Based on current market conditions, in the opinion of our special tax counsel it is reasonable to treat the Notes as “open transactions” that are not debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as more fully described in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes Treated as Open Transactions That Are Not Debt Instruments” in the accompanying product supplement. Assuming this treatment is respected, the gain or loss on your Notes should be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if you hold your Notes for more than a year, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of Notes at the issue price.  However, the IRS or a court may not respect this treatment, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the Notes could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require investors in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose a notional interest charge. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.

 

Key Risks

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. Investing in the Notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying or in any exchange-traded or over-the-counter instruments based on, or other instruments linked to, any of the foregoing. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest in the Notes.

Risks Relating to the Notes Generally

t

Your Investment in the Notes May Result in a Loss — The Notes differ from ordinary debt securities in that we will not necessarily repay the full principal amount of the Notes. We will pay you the principal amount of your Notes in cash only if the Final Value has not declined below the Downside Threshold. If the Final Value is less than the Downside Threshold, you will be exposed to the full decline of the Underlying and will lose some or all of your principal amount in an amount proportionate to the negative Underlying Return. In no event, however, will the payment at maturity be less than $0. Accordingly, you could lose up to your entire principal amount.

t

Credit Risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. — The Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of the Issuer, JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, the payment on which is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The Notes will rank pari passu with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, and the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co. will rank pari passu with all of JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. The Notes and related guarantees are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, depends on the ability of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. to satisfy their obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. may affect the market value of the Notes and, in the event JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on their obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the Notes and you could lose your entire investment.

t

As a Finance Subsidiary, JPMorgan Financial Has No Independent Operations and Limited Assets — As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co., we have no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of our securities and the collection of intercompany obligations. Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. to make payments under loans made by us to JPMorgan Chase & Co. or under other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent upon payments from JPMorgan Chase & Co. to meet our obligations under the Notes. We are not a key operating subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and in a bankruptcy or resolution of JPMorgan Chase & Co. we are not expected to have sufficient resources to meet our obligations in respect of the Notes as they come due. If JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not make payments to us and we are unable to make payments on the Notes, you may have to seek payment under the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. For more information, see the accompanying prospectus addendum.

t

The Appreciation Potential of the Notes Is Limited by the Digital Return — The appreciation potential of the Notes is limited by the Digital Return. If the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Digital Barrier, at maturity we will repay your principal amount, plus a return equal to the Digital Return, regardless of any appreciation of the Underlying. Accordingly, the appreciation potential of the Notes will be limited by the Digital Return even if the Underlying Return is greater than the Digital Return.

t

The Digital Return Applies Only If You Hold the Notes to Maturity — You should be willing to hold your Notes to maturity. If you are able to sell your Notes prior to maturity in the secondary market, if any, the price you receive likely will not reflect the full economic value of the Digital Return or the Notes themselves, and the return you realize may be less than the Underlying’s return, even if that return is positive. You can receive the full benefit of the Digital Return from JPMorgan Financial only if you hold your Notes to maturity.

t

The Contingent Repayment of Principal Applies Only If You Hold the Notes to Maturity — You should be willing to hold your Notes to maturity. If you are able to sell your Notes in the secondary market, if any, prior to maturity, you may have to sell them at a loss relative to your initial investment even if the Contract Price is above the Downside Threshold. If you hold the Notes to maturity, JPMorgan Financial will repay your principal amount as long as the Final Value is not below the Downside Threshold. However, if the Final Value is less than the Downside Threshold, JPMorgan Financial will repay less than the principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss that is proportionate to the decline in the price of the Underlying from the Initial Value to the Final Value. The contingent repayment of principal based on whether the Final Value is below the Downside Threshold applies only if you hold your Notes to maturity.

t

Your Ability to Receive the Digital Return May Terminate on the Final Valuation Date — If the Final Value is less than the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold), you will not be entitled to receive the Digital Return on the Notes. Under these circumstances, you will lose some or all of your principal amount in an amount proportionate to the negative Underlying Return.

t

No Interest Payments — JPMorgan Financial will not make any interest payments to you with respect to the Notes.

t

The Probability That the Final Value Will Fall Below the Downside Threshold on the Final Valuation Date Will Depend on the Volatility of the Underlying — “Volatility” refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the price of the Underlying. Greater expected volatility with respect to the Underlying reflects a higher expectation as of the Trade Date that the Underlying could close below the Downside Threshold on the Final Valuation Date, resulting in the loss of some or all of your investment. However, the Underlying’s volatility can change significantly over the term of the Notes. The price of the Underlying could fall sharply, which could result in a significant loss of principal.

 

t

Owning the Notes Is Not the Same as Owning Brent Crude Oil or Futures Contracts on Brent Crude Oil — The return on the Notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually purchased Brent crude oil, futures contracts on Brent crude oil or exchange-traded or over-the-counter instruments based on Brent crude oil. You will not have any rights that holders of those assets or instruments have.

t

We Cannot Control Actions by the Sponsor of the Underlying and That Sponsor Has No Obligation to Consider Your Interests — We and our affiliates are not affiliated with the sponsor of the Underlying and have no ability to control or predict its actions, including any errors in or discontinuation of public disclosure regarding methods or policies relating to the calculation of the Underlying. The sponsor of the Underlying is not involved in this Note offering in any way and has no obligation to consider your interest as an owner of the Notes in taking any actions that might affect the market value of your Notes.

t

We May Accelerate the Notes if a Commodity Hedging Disruption Event Occurs — If we or our affiliates are unable to effect transactions necessary to hedge our obligations under the Notes due to a commodity hedging disruption event, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, accelerate the payment on the Notes and pay you an amount determined in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner by the calculation agent. If the payment on the Notes is accelerated, your investment may result in a loss and you may not be able to reinvest your money in a comparable investment. Please see “General Terms of Notes — Consequences of a Commodity Hedging Disruption Event — Acceleration of the Notes” in the accompanying product supplement for more information.

t

Lack of Liquidity — The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. JPMS intends to offer to purchase the Notes in the secondary market, but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your Notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the Notes.

t

Tax Treatment — Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Notes are uncertain. You should consult your tax adviser about your tax situation.

t

The Final Terms and Valuation of the Notes Will Be Finalized on the Trade Date and Provided in the Pricing Supplement — The final terms of the Notes will be based on relevant market conditions when the terms of the Notes are set and will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement. In particular, each of the estimated value of the Notes and the Digital Return will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement, and each may be as low as the applicable minimum set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. Accordingly, you should consider your potential investment in the Notes based on the minimums for the estimated value of the Notes and the Digital Return.

Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest

t

Potential Conflicts — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the Notes and making the assumptions used to determine the pricing of the Notes and the estimated value of the Notes when the terms of the Notes are set, which we refer to as the estimated value of the Notes. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests and the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes. In addition, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s business activities, including hedging and trading activities, could cause our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests to be adverse to yours and could adversely affect any payment on the Notes and the value of the Notes. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in connection with the Notes could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the Notes declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement for additional information about these risks.

t

Potentially Inconsistent Research, Opinions or Recommendations by JPMS, UBS or Their Affiliates — JPMS, UBS or their affiliates may publish research, express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with investing in or holding the Notes, and that may be revised at any time. Any such research, opinions or recommendations may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold investments linked to the Underlying and could affect the price of the Underlying, and therefore the market value of the Notes.

t

Potential JPMorgan Financial Impact on the Price of the Underlying — Trading or transactions by JPMorgan Financial or its affiliates in the Underlying or in futures, options or other derivative products on the Underlying may adversely affect the market value of the Underlying and, therefore, the market value of the Notes.

Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes

t

The Estimated Value of the Notes Will Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes — The estimated value of the Notes is only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original issue price of the Notes will exceed the estimated value of the Notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the Notes are included in the original issue price of the Notes. These costs include the selling commissions, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

t

The Estimated Value of the Notes Does Not Represent Future Values of the Notes and May Differ from Others’ Estimates — The estimated value of the Notes is determined by reference to internal pricing models of our affiliates when the terms of the Notes are set. This estimated value of the Notes is based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time and assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility, interest rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the Notes that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the Notes. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On future dates, the value of the Notes could change significantly based on, among other things, changes in market conditions, our or JPMorgan

 

Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness, interest rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price, if any, at which JPMS would be willing to buy Notes from you in secondary market transactions. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

t

The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate — The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the Notes may differ from the market-implied funding rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may be based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the Notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the Notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect, and is intended to approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the Notes. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the Notes and any secondary market prices of the Notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

t

The Value of the Notes as Published by JPMS (and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements) May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Notes for a Limited Time Period — We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the Notes will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your Notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances. See “Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the estimated value of your Notes during this initial period may be lower than the value of the Notes as published by JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements).

t

Secondary Market Prices of the Notes Will Likely Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price of the Notes — Any secondary market prices of the Notes will likely be lower than the original issue price of the Notes because, among other things, secondary market prices take into account our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also, because secondary market prices may exclude selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are included in the original issue price of the Notes. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy Notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, is likely to be lower than the original issue price. Any sale by you prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you. See the immediately following risk factor for information about additional factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the Notes.

The Notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your Notes to maturity. See “— Risks Relating to the Notes Generally — Lack of Liquidity” above.

t

Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Notes — As described under “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement, the Notes can be thought of as securities that combine a fixed-income debt component with one or more derivatives. As a result, the factors that influence the values of fixed-income debt and derivative instruments will also influence the terms of the Notes at issuance and their value in the secondary market. Accordingly, the secondary market price of the Notes during their term will be impacted by a number of economic and market factors, which may either offset or magnify each other, aside from the selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the price of the Underlying, including:

t

any actual or potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness or credit spreads;

t

customary bid-ask spreads for similarly sized trades;

t

our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances;

t

the actual and expected volatility in the price of the Underlying;

t

the time to maturity of the Notes;

t

supply and demand trends for Brent crude oil or the exchange-traded futures contracts on that commodity;

t

interest and yield rates in the market generally; and

t

a variety of other economic, financial, political, regulatory, geographical, agricultural, meteorological and judicial events.

Additionally, independent pricing vendors and/or third party broker-dealers may publish a price for the Notes, which may also be reflected on customer account statements. This price may be different (higher or lower) than the price of the Notes, if any, at which JPMS may be willing to purchase your Notes in the secondary market.

Commodity Futures Contracts Are Subject to Uncertain Legal and Regulatory Regimes — Commodity futures contracts are subject to legal and regulatory regimes that may change in ways that could adversely affect our ability to hedge our obligations under the Notes and affect the price of the Commodity Futures Contract.  Any future regulatory changes may have a substantial adverse effect on the value of the Notes.  Additionally, in October 2020, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission adopted rules to establish revised or new position limits on 25 agricultural, metals and energy commodity derivatives contracts.  The limits apply to a person’s combined position in the specified 25 futures contracts and options on futures (“core referenced futures contracts”), futures and options on futures directly or indirectly linked to the core referenced futures contracts, and economically equivalent swaps.  These rules came into effect on January 1, 2022 for covered futures and options on futures contracts and on January 1, 2023 for covered swaps.  The rules may reduce liquidity in the exchange-traded market for those commodity-based futures contracts, which may, in turn,

 

have an adverse effect on any payments on the Notes. Furthermore, we or our affiliates may be unable as a result of those restrictions to effect transactions necessary to hedge our obligations under the Notes resulting in a commodity hedging disruption event, in which case we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, accelerate your Notes.  See “— Risks Relating to the Notes Generally — We May Accelerate Your Notes If a Commodity Hedging Disruption Event Occurs” above.

¨

Prices of Commodity Futures Contracts Are Characterized by High and Unpredictable Volatility — Market prices of commodity futures contracts tend to be highly volatile and may fluctuate rapidly based on numerous factors, including the factors that affect the price of the commodity underlying the Underlying. See “— The Market Price of Brent Crude Oil Will Affect the Value of the Notes” below. The Contract Price is subject to variables that may be less significant to the values of traditional Notes, such as stocks and bonds. These variables may create additional investment risks that cause the value of the Notes to be more volatile than the values of traditional Notes. As a general matter, the risk of low liquidity or volatile pricing around the maturity date of a commodity futures contract is greater than in the case of other futures contracts because (among other factors) a number of market participants take physical delivery of the underlying commodities. Many commodities are also highly cyclical. The high volatility and cyclical nature of commodity markets may render such an investment inappropriate as the focus of an investment portfolio.

¨

The Market Price of Brent Crude Oil Will Affect the Value of the Notes — Because the Notes are linked to the performance of the Contract Price, we expect that generally the market value of the Notes will depend in part on the market price of Brent crude oil. The price of Brent crude oil is primarily affected by the global demand for and supply of crude oil, but is also influenced significantly from time to time by speculative actions, by currency exchange rates and by factors affecting the specific blends deliverable as Brent crude oil, as well as by periodic changes in which blends are deliverable as Brent crude oil. Crude oil prices are volatile and subject to dislocation. Demand for refined petroleum products by consumers, as well as the agricultural, manufacturing and transportation industries, affects the price of crude oil. Crude oil’s end-use as a refined product is often as transport fuel, industrial fuel and in-home heating fuel. Potential for substitution in most areas exists, although considerations, including relative cost, often limit substitution levels. Because the precursors of demand for petroleum products are linked to economic activity, demand will tend to reflect economic conditions. Demand is also influenced by government regulations, such as environmental or consumption policies. In addition to general economic activity and demand, prices for crude oil are affected by political events, labor activity and, in particular, direct government intervention (such as embargos) or supply disruptions in major oil producing regions of the world. These events tend to affect oil prices worldwide, regardless of the location of the event. Supply for crude oil may increase or decrease depending on many factors. These include production decisions by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and other crude oil producers. Crude oil prices are determined with significant influence by OPEC. OPEC has the potential to influence oil prices worldwide because its members possess a significant portion of the world’s oil supply. In the event of sudden disruptions in the supplies of oil, such as those caused by war (e.g., Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and resulting sanctions), natural events, accidents or acts of terrorism, prices of oil futures contracts could become extremely volatile and unpredictable. Also, sudden and dramatic changes in the futures market may occur, for example, upon a cessation of hostilities that may exist in countries producing oil, the introduction of new or previously withheld supplies into the market or the introduction of substitute products or commodities. Crude oil prices may also be affected by short-term changes in supply and demand because of trading activities in the oil market and seasonality (e.g., weather conditions such as hurricanes). It is not possible to predict the aggregate effect of all or any combination of these factors.

¨

Futures Contracts on Brent Crude Oil are the Benchmark Crude Oil Contracts in European and Asian Markets and May Be Affected by Economic Conditions in Europe and Asia — Because futures contracts on Brent crude oil are the benchmark crude oil contracts in European and Asian markets, the Underlying will be affected by economic conditions in Europe and Asia. A decline in economic activity in Europe or Asia could result in decreased demand for crude oil and for futures contracts on crude oil, which could adversely affect the price of the Underlying and, therefore, the Notes.

¨

There Are Risks Relating to the Contract Price of the Underlying Being Determined by ICE Futures Europe — Futures contracts on Brent crude oil are traded on ICE Futures Europe. The Contract Price will be determined by reference to the official settlement price per barrel on ICE Futures Europe of the first nearby month futures contract for Brent crude oil (or, in some circumstances, the second nearby month futures contract for Brent crude oil), stated in U.S. dollars, as made public by ICE Futures Europe and displayed on the applicable Bloomberg page. Investments in Notes linked to the value of commodity futures contracts that are traded on non-U.S. exchanges, such as ICE Futures Europe, involve risks associated with the markets in those countries, including risks of volatility in those markets and governmental intervention in those markets.

¨

A Decision By ICE Futures Europe to Increase Margin Requirements for Brent Crude Oil Futures Contracts May Affect the Contract Price of the Underlying — If ICE Futures Europe increases the amount of collateral required to be posted to hold positions in the futures contracts on Brent crude oil (i.e., the margin requirements), market participants who are unwilling or unable to post additional collateral may liquidate their positions, which may cause the Contract Price to decline significantly.

¨

The Notes Do Not Offer Direct Exposure to Commodity Spot Prices — The Underlying reflects the price of a futures contract, not a physical commodity (or its spot price). The price of a futures contract reflects the expected value of the commodity upon delivery in the future, whereas the spot price of a commodity reflects the immediate delivery value of the commodity. A variety of factors can lead to a disparity between the expected future price of a commodity and the spot price at a given point in time, such as the cost of storing the commodity for the term of the futures contract, interest charges incurred to finance the purchase of the commodity and expectations concerning supply and demand for the commodity. The price movements of a futures contract are typically correlated with the movements of the spot price of the referenced commodity, but the correlation is generally imperfect and price movements in the spot market may not be reflected in the futures market (and vice versa). Accordingly, the Notes may underperform a similar investment that is linked to only commodity spot prices.

¨

Single Commodity Futures Contract Prices Tend to Be More Volatile Than, and May Not Correlate with, the Prices of Commodities Generally — The Notes are not linked to a diverse basket of commodities, commodity futures contracts or a broad-

 

based commodity index. The prices of the Underlying may not correlate to the price of commodities or commodity futures contracts generally and may diverge significantly from the prices of commodities or commodity futures contracts generally. Because the Notes are linked to a single commodity futures contract, they carry greater risk and may be more volatile than Notes linked to the prices of multiple commodities or commodity futures contracts or a broad-based commodity index.

¨

Suspension or Disruptions of Market Trading in the Commodity Markets and Related Futures Markets May Adversely Affect the Contract Price of the Underlying, and Therefore the Value of the Notes — The commodity markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention. In addition, U.S. futures exchanges and some foreign exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuation in futures contract prices that may occur during a single day. These limits are generally referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” and the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a “limit price.” Once the limit price has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made at a different price. Limit prices have the effect of precluding trading in a particular contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts at disadvantageous times or prices. These circumstances could adversely affect the Contract Price and, therefore, the value of your Notes.

 

 

 

Hypothetical Examples and Return Table

Hypothetical terms only. Actual terms may vary. See the cover page for actual offering terms.

The following table and hypothetical examples below illustrate the payment at maturity per $10.00 principal amount Note for a hypothetical range of Underlying Returns from -100.00% to +100.00% on an offering of the Notes linked to a hypothetical Underlying, and assume a hypothetical Initial Value of $100, a hypothetical Digital Barrier of $90, a hypothetical Downside Threshold of $90 and a hypothetical Digital Return of 5.00%. The hypothetical Initial Value of $100 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and may not represent a likely actual Initial Value. The actual Initial Value, Digital Barrier and Downside Threshold will be based on the Contract Price on the Trade Date and will be provided in the pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the actual prices of the Underlying, please see the historical information set forth under “The Underlying” in this pricing supplement. The actual Digital Return will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement. The hypothetical payment at maturity examples set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual returns applicable to a purchaser of the Notes. The actual payment at maturity may be more or less than the amounts displayed below and will be determined based on the actual terms of the Notes, including the Initial Value, the Digital Barrier, the Downside Threshold and the Digital Return to be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement and the Final Value on the Final Valuation Date. You should consider carefully whether the Notes are suitable to your investment goals. The numbers appearing in the table below have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Final Value	Underlying Return (%)	Payment at Maturity ($)	Return at Maturity per $10.00 issue price (%)
$200.00	100.00%	$10.500	5.00%
$190.00	90.00%	$10.500	5.00%
$180.00	80.00%	$10.500	5.00%
$170.00	70.00%	$10.500	5.00%
$160.00	60.00%	$10.500	5.00%
$150.00	50.00%	$10.500	5.00%
$140.00	40.00%	$10.500	5.00%

$0.00	-100.00%	$0.000	-100.00%

Example 1 — The Contract Price increases by 2.50% from the Initial Value of $100 to the Final Value of $102.50. 
Because the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold), at maturity, JPMorgan Financial will pay you your principal amount plus a return equal to the Digital Return, regardless of the appreciation of the Underlying, resulting in a payment at maturity of $10.50 per $10 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$10.00 + ($10.00 × the Digital Return)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × 5.00%) = $10.50

Example 2 — The Contract Price increases by 10% from the Initial Value of $100 to the Final Value of $110.
Because the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold) and although the Underlying Return of 10% is greater than the Digital Return of 5.00%, at maturity, JPMorgan Financial will pay you your principal amount plus a return equal to only the Digital Return, regardless of the appreciation of the Underlying, resulting in a payment at maturity of $10.50 per $10 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$10.00 + ($10.00 × the Digital Return)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × 5.00%) = $10.50

Example 3 — The Contract Price decreases by 5% from the Initial Value of $100 to the Final Value of $95.
Even though the Contract Price has declined, because the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Digital Barrier (which is equal to the Downside Threshold), at maturity, JPMorgan Financial will pay you your principal amount plus a return equal to the Digital Return of 5.00%, resulting in a payment at maturity of $10.50 per $10 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$10.00 + ($10.00 × the Digital Return)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × 5.00%) = $10.50

Example 4 — The Contract Price decreases by 60% from the Initial Value of $100 to the Final Value of $40.
Because the Final Value is less than the Downside Threshold and the Underlying Return is -60%, at maturity, JPMorgan Financial will pay you a payment at maturity of $4.00 per $10 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$10.00 + ($10.00 × Underlying Return)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × -60%) = $4.00

If the Final Value is less than the Downside Threshold, investors will be exposed to the negative Underlying Return at maturity, resulting in a loss of principal that is proportionate to the Underlying’s decline from the Initial Value to the Final Value. In no event, however, will the payment at maturity be less than $0. Investors could lose some or all of their principal amount.

The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the Notes shown above apply only if you hold the Notes for their entire term. These hypotheticals do not reflect fees or expenses that would be associated with any sale in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included, the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments shown above would likely be lower.

 

 

The Underlying

The Notes are linked to the official settlement price per barrel on ICE Futures Europe of the first nearby month (or, in some circumstances, the second nearby month) futures contract for Brent crude oil, stated in U.S. dollars, as made public by ICE Futures Europe and displayed on the applicable Bloomberg page. For additional information about the Underlying, see the information set forth under “The Underlyings — Commodity Futures Contracts” in the accompanying product supplement.

Historical Information

The graph below illustrates the daily performance of the Underlying from January 2, 2014 through December 2, 2024, based on information from Bloomberg, without independent verification. The Contract Price on December 2, 2024 was $71.83.

The dotted line represents a hypothetical Digital Barrier and a hypothetical Downside Threshold of $46.69, equal to 65% of the Contract Price on December 2, 2024. The actual Digital Barrier and Downside Threshold will be based on the Initial Value and will be finalized on the Trade Date and provided in the pricing supplement.

Past performance of the Underlying is not indicative of the future performance of the Underlying.

The historical performance of the Underlying should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Contract Price on the Trade Date or the Final Valuation Date. There can be no assurance that the performance of the Underlying will result in the return of any of your principal amount.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution

We and JPMorgan Chase & Co. have agreed to indemnify UBS and JPMS against liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments that UBS may be required to make relating to these liabilities as described in the prospectus supplement and the prospectus. We will agree that UBS may sell all or a part of the Notes that it purchases from us to the public or its affiliates at the price to public indicated on the cover hereof.

Subject to regulatory constraints, JPMS intends to offer to purchase the Notes in the secondary market, but it is not required to do so.

We or our affiliates may enter into swap agreements or related hedge transactions with one of our other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties in connection with the sale of the Notes, and JPMS and/or an affiliate may earn additional income as a result of payments pursuant to the swap or related hedge transactions. See “Supplemental Use of Proceeds” in this pricing supplement and “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement.

The Estimated Value of the Notes

The estimated value of the Notes set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement is equal to the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt component with the same maturity as the Notes, valued using the internal funding rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the Notes. The estimated value of the Notes does not represent a minimum price at which JPMS would be willing to buy your Notes in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the Notes may differ from the market-implied funding rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may be based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding values of the Notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the Notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect, and is intended to

 

approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the Notes. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the Notes and any secondary market prices of the Notes. For additional information, see “Key Risks — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate” in this pricing supplement. The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the Notes is derived from internal pricing models of our affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on various other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which can include volatility, interest rates and other factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments. Accordingly, the estimated value of the Notes is determined when the terms of the Notes are set based on market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time. See “Key Risks — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the Notes Does Not Represent Future Values of the Notes and May Differ from Others’ Estimates” in this pricing supplement.

The estimated value of the Notes will be lower than the original issue price of the Notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the Notes are included in the original issue price of the Notes. These costs include the selling commissions paid to UBS, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes. Because hedging our obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our control, this hedging may result in a profit that is more or less than expected, or it may result in a loss. We or one or more of our affiliates will retain any profits realized in hedging our obligations under the Notes. See “Key Risks — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the Notes Will Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

Secondary Market Prices of the Notes

For information about factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the Notes, see “Key Risks — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — Secondary Market Prices of the Notes Will Be Impacted by Many Economic and Market Factors” in this pricing supplement. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the Notes will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your Notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period that is intended to be up to seven months. The length of any such initial period reflects secondary market volumes for the Notes, the structure of the Notes, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the Notes and when these costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See “Key Risks — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Value of the Notes as Published by JPMS (and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements) May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Notes for a Limited Time Period” in this pricing supplement.

Supplemental Use of Proceeds

The Notes are offered to meet investor demand for products that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the Notes. See “Hypothetical Examples and Return Table” in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile of the Notes and “The Underlying” in this pricing supplement for a description of the market exposure provided by the Notes.

The original issue price of the Notes is equal to the estimated value of the Notes plus the selling commissions paid to UBS, plus (minus) the projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Notes, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes.
