Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan
Chase & Co.
|
· |
The notes are designed for investors who seek a fixed return of
125.00% at maturity if the Final Value of the least performing of
the common shares of American Express Company, the common stock of
Microsoft Corporation, the Class A common stock of Meta Platforms,
Inc. and the common stock of Citigroup Inc., which we refer to as
the Reference Stocks, is greater than or equal to its Strike

Investors should be willing to forgo interest and dividend
payments and be willing to lose some or all of their principal
amount at maturity. |
|
· |
The notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, which we refer to as JPMorgan
Financial, the payment on which is fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Any payment on the notes
is subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of
the notes, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as
guarantor of the notes. |

the Reference Stocks. Payments on the notes are linked to the
performance of each of the Reference Stocks individually, as
described below. |
|
· |
Minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples
thereof |
|
· |
The notes priced on December 6, 2022 (the “Pricing Date”) and
are expected to settle on or about December 9, 2022. The Strike
Value of each Reference Stock has been determined by reference to
the closing price of one share of that Reference Stock on December
5, 2022 and not by reference to the closing price of one
share of that Reference Stock on the Pricing Date. |

Hypothetical Payout Profile
The following table and graph illustrate the hypothetical total
return and payment at maturity on the notes linked to four
hypothetical Reference Stocks. The “total return” as used in this
pricing supplement is the number, expressed as a percentage, that
results from comparing the payment at maturity per $1,000 principal
amount note to $1,000. The hypothetical total returns and payments
set forth below assume the following:
|
· |
a Strike Value for the Least Performing Reference Stock of
$100.00; and |
|
· |
a Contingent Digital Return of 125.00%. |
The hypothetical Strike Value of the Least Performing Reference
Stock of $100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and
does not represent the actual Strike Value of any Reference Stock.
The actual Strike Value of each Reference Stock is the closing
price of one share of that Reference Stock on the Strike Date and
is specified under “Key Terms Relating to the Reference Stocks” in
this pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the actual
closing prices of one share of each Reference Stock, please see the
historical information set forth under “The Reference Stocks” in
this pricing supplement.
Each hypothetical total return or hypothetical payment at maturity
set forth below is for illustrative purposes only and may not be
the actual total return or payment at maturity applicable to a
purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following
table and graph have been rounded for ease of analysis.

|

The following graph demonstrates the hypothetical payments at
maturity on the notes for a sub-set of Least Performing Stock
Returns detailed in the table above (-100% to 160%). There can be
no assurance that the performance of the Least Performing Reference
Stock will result in the return of any of your principal
amount.

How the Notes Work
Upside Scenario:
If the Final Value of each Reference Stock is greater than or equal
to its Strike Value, investors will receive at maturity the $1,000
principal amount plus a fixed return equal to the Contingent
Digital Return of 125.00%, which reflects the maximum return at
maturity.
|
· |
If the closing price of one share of the Least Performing
Reference Stock increases 5.00%, investors will receive at maturity
a 125.00% return, or $2,250.00 per $1,000 principal amount
note. |
|
· |
If the closing price of one share of the Least Performing
Reference Stock increases 160.00%, investors will receive at
maturity a 125.00% return, or $2,250.00 per $1,000 principal amount
note. |
Downside Scenario:
If the Final Value of any Reference Stock is less than its Strike
Value, investors will lose 1% of the principal amount of their
notes for every 1% that the Final Value of the Least Performing
Reference Stock is less than its Strike Value.
|
· |
For example, if the closing price of one share of the Least
Performing Reference Stock declines 60.00%, investors will lose
60.00% of their principal amount and receive only $400.00 per
$1,000 principal amount note at maturity. |
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 the 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.
Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. These risks
are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the
accompanying prospectus supplement and product supplement.
Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
|
· |
YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS — |
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the Final
Value of any Reference Stock is less than its Strike Value, you
will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1%
that the Final Value of the Least Performing Reference Stock is
less than its Strike Value. Accordingly, under these circumstances,
you will lose some or all of your principal amount at maturity.
|
· |
YOUR MAXIMUM GAIN ON THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE CONTINGENT
DIGITAL RETURN, |
regardless of any appreciation of any Reference Stock, which may be
significant.
PS-3
| Structured Investments
Digital Notes Linked to the Least Performing of the Common Shares
of American Express Company, the Common Stock of Microsoft
Corporation, the Class A Common Stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. and
the Common Stock of Citigroup Inc.
|
 |
|
· |
YOUR ABILITY TO RECEIVE THE CONTINGENT DIGITAL RETURN MAY
TERMINATE ON THE OBSERVATION DATE — |
If the Final Value of any Reference Stock is less than its Strike
Value, you will not be entitled to receive the Contingent Digital
Return at maturity. Under these circumstances, you will lose some
or all of your principal amount at maturity.
|
· |
CREDIT RISKS OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL AND JPMORGAN CHASE &
CO. — |
Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s
ability to pay all amounts due on the notes. Any actual or
potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s
creditworthiness or credit spreads, as determined by the market for
taking that credit risk, is likely to adversely affect the value of
the notes. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on
our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to
you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.
|
· |
AS A FINANCE SUBSIDIARY, JPMORGAN FINANCIAL HAS NO
INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS AND HAS LIMITED ASSETS — |
As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co., we have no
independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of
our securities. Aside from the initial capital contribution from
JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to
obligations of our affiliates to make payments under loans made by
us or other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent
upon payments from our affiliates to meet our obligations under the
notes. If these affiliates do not make payments to us and we fail
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.
|
· |
YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE PRICE OF ONE
SHARE OF EACH REFERENCE STOCK — |
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of the
Reference Stocks and are contingent upon the performance of each
individual Reference Stock. Poor performance by any of the
Reference Stocks over the term of the notes may negatively affect
your payment at maturity and will not be offset or mitigated by
positive performance by any other Reference Stock.
|
· |
YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE LEAST
PERFORMING REFERENCE STOCK. |
|
· |
THE NOTES DO NOT PAY INTEREST. |
|
· |
YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON ANY REFERENCE STOCK OR
HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO ANY REFERENCE STOCK. |
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.
Accordingly, 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. You may not be able to sell your 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.
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with
the notes. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase &
Co.’s economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests
as an investor in 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.
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market
Prices of the Notes
|
· |
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS 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
exceeds 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.

of American Express Company, the Common Stock of Microsoft

|
 |
|
· |
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES DOES NOT REPRESENT FUTURE
VALUES OF THE NOTES AND MAY DIFFER FROM OTHERS’ ESTIMATES
— |
See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing
supplement.
|
· |
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.
|
· |
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. 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).
|
· |
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 the 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.
|
· |
SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL BE IMPACTED BY
MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS — |
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 prices of one share of the Reference Stocks.
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. See “Risk Factors — 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 the accompanying product supplement.
Risks Relating to the Reference Stocks
|
· |
NO AFFILIATION WITH ANY REFERENCE STOCK ISSUER — |
We have not independently verified any of the information about any
Reference Stock issuer contained in this pricing supplement. You
should undertake your own investigation into each Reference Stock
and its issuer. We are not responsible for any Reference Stock
issuer’s public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC
filings or otherwise.
|
· |
THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION FOR EACH REFERENCE STOCK IS
LIMITED AND MAY BE DISCRETIONARY — |
The calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to
all events that could affect a Reference Stock. The calculation
agent may make adjustments in response to events that are not
described in the accompanying product supplement to account for any
diluting or concentrative effect, but the calculation agent is
under no obligation to do so or to consider your interests as a
holder of the notes in making these determinations.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully
the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax
Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 4-II. 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.
Section 871(m) of the Code
and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”)
generally impose a 30% withholding tax (unless an income tax treaty
applies) on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S.
Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to
U.S. equities or indices that include U.S. equities. Section
871(m) provides certain exceptions to this withholding regime,
including for instruments linked to certain broad-based indices
that meet requirements set forth in the applicable Treasury
regulations. Additionally, a recent IRS notice excludes from
the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1,
2025 that do not have a delta of one with respect to underlying
securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”). Based on
certain determinations made by us, our special tax counsel is of
the opinion that Section 871(m) should not apply to the notes with
regard to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding
on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination.
Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your
particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other
transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. You
should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application
of Section 871(m) to the notes.

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 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. For additional information, see “Selected Risk
Considerations — 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, dividend rates, 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.
The estimated value of the notes does not represent future values
of the notes and may differ from others’ estimates. 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.
The estimated value of the notes is 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 JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated
dealers, 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. A portion of the profits, if any, realized in
hedging our obligations under the notes may be allowed to other
affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, and we or one or more of our
affiliates will retain any remaining hedging profits. See “Selected
Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the
Notes Is 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 “Risk Factors — 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 the accompanying product
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. 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. This initial predetermined
time period is intended to be the shorter of six months and
one-half of the stated term of the notes. The length of any such
initial period reflects 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 “Selected
Risk Considerations — 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 Payout Profile” and “How the Notes Work”
in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return
profile of the notes and “The Reference Stocks” 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 JPMS and
other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, 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.
Supplemental Plan of Distribution
We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment
for the notes on or about the Original Issue Date set forth on the
front cover of this pricing supplement, which will be the third
business day following the Pricing Date of the notes (this
settlement cycle being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the
secondary market generally are required to settle in two business
days, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise.
Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior
to two business days before delivery will be required to specify an
alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent
a failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.
Supplemental Information About the Form of the Notes
The notes will initially be represented by a type of global
security that we refer to as a master note. A master note
represents multiple securities that may be issued at different
times and that may have different terms. The trustee and/or
paying agent will, in accordance with instructions from us, make
appropriate entries or notations in its records relating to the
master note representing the notes to indicate that the master note
evidences the notes.
Validity of the Notes and the Guarantee
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special
products counsel to JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase &
Co., when the notes offered by this pricing supplement have been
issued by JPMorgan Financial pursuant to the indenture, the trustee
and/or paying agent has made, in accordance with the instructions
from JPMorgan Financial, the appropriate entries or notations in
its records relating to the master global note that represents such
notes (the “master note”), and such notes have been delivered
against payment as contemplated herein, such notes will be valid
and binding obligations of JPMorgan Financial and the related
guarantee will constitute a valid and binding obligation of
JPMorgan Chase & Co., enforceable in accordance with their
terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of
reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability
(including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair
dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided that such
counsel expresses no opinion as to (i) the effect of fraudulent
conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable
law on the conclusions expressed above or (ii) any provision of the
indenture that purports to avoid the effect of fraudulent
conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable
law by limiting the amount of JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s obligation
under the related guarantee. This opinion is given as of the
date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York,
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the
Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. In addition, this
opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the trustee’s
authorization, execution and delivery of the indenture and its
authentication of the master note and the validity, binding nature
and enforceability of the indenture with respect to the trustee,
all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated May 6, 2022,
which was filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K by
JPMorgan Chase & Co. on May 6, 2022.
