Tacoma, Wash., July 24 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $3.23 million of phoenix quarterly review notes with memory coupon feature due Aug. 8, 2018 linked to the common stock of Bank of America Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
If Bank of America shares close at or above the trigger price, 77.75% of the initial share price, on a quarterly observation date, the notes will pay a contingent coupon plus any previously unpaid contingent coupons. If Bank of America shares close below the trigger price, no coupon will be paid that quarter. The contingent coupon rate is 10% per year.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless Bank of America shares finish below the trigger price, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the stock’s decline.
The notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon if Bank of America shares close at or above the initial share price on any quarterly observation date.
HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the underwriter, and JPMorgan Chase Bank NA and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are the agents.
