New Issue: HSBC sells $525,000 contingent income barrier autocalls with memory on airline stocks

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, Nov. 17 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $525,000 of autocallable contingent income barrier notes with memory coupon due March 18, 2025 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of United Airlines Holdings, Inc. and American Airlines Group Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annualized rate of 18% if each stock closes at or above its coupon trigger level, 60% of its initial level, on the observation date for that period. Any previously unpaid coupons will also be paid.

The notes will be called at par if each stock closes at or above 80% of its initial level on any monthly call observation date after three months.

If the notes are not called and each stock finishes at or above its 50% barrier value, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the least-performing stock.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
