New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $1.5 million contingent income autocalls on S&P, Russell, Dow
By Wendy Van Sickle
Columbus, Ohio, March 5 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.5 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Feb. 20, 2026 tied to the Dow Jones industrial average, the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a monthly contingent coupon at the rate of 5.5% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date that period.
The notes will be automatically called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any monthly call determination date after six months.
If the lowest-performing index finishes at or above its downside threshold level, 70% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus any final coupon. If the lowest-performing index finishes below its downside threshold level, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the lowest-performing index from its initial level.
The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
