New Issue: GS Finance sells $539,000 contingent coupon autocalls tied to three stocks

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 10 – GS Finance Corp. priced $539,000 of autocallable contingent coupon equity-linked notes due May 10, 2022 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of Intuitive Surgical, Inc., Facebook, Inc. and Nvidia Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 17.75% if each stock closes at or above its 65% coupon barrier on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par if each stock closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly call observation date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any stock finishes below its 60% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing stock.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
