New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1.1 million contingent coupon autocallables linked to Gap

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., April 23 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1.1 million of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due April 24, 2020 linked to the common stock of Gap, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a coupon if Gap shares close at or above the barrier price, 80% of the initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter. The coupon rate is 7.25% per year.

The notes will be automatically called at par if the shares close at or above the initial share price on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called and the final share price is greater than or equal to the barrier price, the payout will be par. Otherwise, investors will receive a number of Gap shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price or, at the issuer’s option, a cash amount equal to the value of those shares.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA are the agents.
