New Issue: GS Finance sells $1.58 million contingent coupon autocalls on indexes

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., Oct. 23 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.58 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due April 27, 2020 linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 index, the Nasdaq-100 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon of 10.25% per annum if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon trigger level on the determination date for that quarter.

Beginning in April 2019, the notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly determination date.

If each index finishes at or above its 70% trigger level, the payout will be par plus the final contingent coupon.

Investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the lesser-performing index from its initial level if any index finishes below 70% of its initial level.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the agent.
