Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities Based on the Value of the Common Stock of Uber Technologies, Inc. due March 18, 2026
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley
Principal at Risk Securities
The Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities, which we refer to as the securities, are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The securities will pay no interest and do not guarantee the return of any of the principal amount at maturity. At maturity, you will receive for each security that you hold an amount in cash that will vary depending on the performance of the common stock of Uber Technologies, Inc., as determined on the valuation date. If the final share price is greater than or equal to 60% of the initial share price, which we refer to as the downside threshold level, you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity the upside payment of $110 per security in addition to the stated principal amount. However, if the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, meaning that the underlying stock has depreciated by more than 40% from its initial value, the payment due at maturity will be significantly less than the stated principal amount of the securities by an amount that is proportionate to the full percentage decrease in the final share price from the initial share price. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity per security will be less than $600 and could be zero. Accordingly, you may lose your entire initial investment in the securities. The securities are for investors who seek an equity-based return and who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and returns above the upside payment in exchange for the upside payment feature that applies to a limited range of performance of the underlying stock. 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.
