New Issue: Goldman prices $4.29 million contingent coupon autcocallables linked to two indexes

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Aug. 31 – Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. priced $4.29 million of callable contingent coupon index-linked notes due Sept. 11, 2025 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 5.8% if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 50% of its initial level, on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above initial level on any coupon payment date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless either index finishes below the 50% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing index.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
