Buffalo, N.Y., March 25 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $5.59 million of phoenix quarterly review notes with a memory coupon feature due April 2, 2025 linked to the stock performance of Amazon.com, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 14.1% if the shares close at or above their 85% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter. If a coupon payment is missed because the stock closes below the barrier, it will be paid on the next coupon payment date that the stock closes at or above the barrier.
The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the shares close at or above the initial price on any quarterly observation date.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless the shares finish below the 85% trigger level, in which case investors will lose 1.1765% per 1% decline of the stock beyond 15%.
HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the underwriter, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are the placement agents.
