By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., Nov. 12 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $975,000 of autocallable contingent income barrier notes due Nov. 15, 2021 linked to the common stock of Caterpillar Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay an 11% contingent coupon if the stock closes at or above the coupon trigger level, 70% of the initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the stock closes at or above the initial share price on any coupon observation date beginning May 10, 2019.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless the stock finishes below its 70% barrier price, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline in the stock.
