New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $1.38 million contingent income autocallables tied to Apple

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Oct. 16 – Morgan Stanley priced $1.38 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Oct. 19, 2018 linked to Apple Inc. stock, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If Apple shares close at or above the downside threshold level, 70% of the initial share price, on a monthly determination date, the notes will pay a contingent payment that month at an annualized rate of 10%.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if Apple shares close at or above the initial share price on any quarterly redemption determination date.

If the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the final share price is less than the initial share price.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
