Jump Securities with Auto-Callable Feature due July 9, 2027
All Payments on the Securities Based on the Worst Performing of the VanEck® Gold Miners ETF and the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR® Fund
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley
Principal at Risk Securities
The securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”), fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, and have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement, index supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document. The securities do not guarantee the repayment of principal and do not provide for the regular payment of interest. The securities will be automatically redeemed if the closing price of each of the VanEck® Gold Miners ETF and the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR® Fund which we refer to as the underlying shares, on the first determination date is greater than or equal to 100% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to as the respective call threshold level, for an early redemption payment of $1,255 per security, as described below. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final share price of each of the underlying shares is greater than or equal to its respective initial share price, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus a return reflecting 300% of the upside performance of the worst performing underlying shares. If the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final share price of either of the underlying shares is less than its respective initial share price but the final share price of each of the underlying shares is greater than or equal to 60% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to as the respective downside threshold level, investors will receive a payment at maturity of $1,000 per $1,000 security. However, if the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price of either of the underlying shares is less than its respective downside threshold level, investors will be exposed to the decline in the worst performing underlying shares on a 1-to-1 basis, and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 60% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment. The securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income in exchange for the possibility of receiving an early redemption payment if each of the underlying shares closes at or above the respective call threshold level on the first determination date and the potential upside exposure to the worst performing underlying shares at maturity. Because all payments on the securities are based on the worst performing of the underlying shares, a decline beyond the respective downside threshold level of either of the underlying shares will result in a significant loss of your investment, even if the other underlying shares has appreciated or has not declined as much. The securities are notes issued as part of MSFL’s Series A Global Medium-Term Notes program.
All payments are subject to our credit risk. If we default on our obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment. These securities are not secured obligations and you will not have any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets.
