Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 4 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $3.17 million of autocallable contingent income barrier notes due Sept. 8, 2016 linked to the common stock of Gilead Sciences, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 11% per year if Gilead Sciences stock closes at or above the barrier level, 75% of the initial share price, on the determination date for that quarter.
Beginning Dec. 2, the notes will be automatically called at par plus the coupon if Gilead Sciences stock closes at or above the initial share price on any coupon observation date.
If the notes are not called and Gilead Sciences stock finishes at or above the barrier level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon. Otherwise, the payout will be a number of shares of the stock equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price.
