New Issue: GS Finance prices $1.09 million contingent coupon autocallables on S&P, Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 3 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.09 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due Oct. 5, 2026 linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 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.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 9% if each index closes at or above its coupon trigger level, 75% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any coupon determination date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its trigger level, 50% of its initial level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worse-performing index.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
