Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 4 – GS Finance Corp. priced $52,000 of autocallable contingent coupon notes due Jan. 5, 2021 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 8.55% if each index closes at or above its trigger level, 75% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.
Beginning in March 2020, the notes will be automatically called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any coupon determination date.
The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its initial level and either index ever closes below 75% of its initial level during the life of the notes, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the lesser-performing index declines from initial level.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
