New Issue: Citi prices $2.6 million autocallable contingent coupon notes on Alcoa

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., Feb. 3 – Citigroup Inc. priced $2,595,000 of autocallable contingent coupon equity-linked securities due Feb. 3, 2016 linked to the common stock of Alcoa Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annualized rate of 9.5% if Alcoa stock closes at or above the barrier price, 75% of the initial price, on the valuation date for that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon if Alcoa shares close at or above the initial share price on any of the first three quarterly valuation dates.

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

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is the underwriter.
