Olympia, Wash., April 24 – GS Finance Corp. priced $705,000 of autocallable contingent coupon notes due July 27, 2021 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 15% if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.
The notes will be automatically called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any coupon determination date.
The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its initial level and either index ever closes below its 70% trigger level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% loss of the least-performing index.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
