By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., March 28 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.5 million of contingent income autocallable securities due April 30, 2026 linked to the worst performing of the shares of Microsoft Corp., Apple Inc. and Amazon.com, Inc., according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 7% if each underlying stock closes at or above its 60% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if each stock closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly review date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par plus any coupon due unless any underlying stock finishes below its 60% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing stock.

The guarantor is Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
