New Issue: Goldman sells $366,000 callable contingent coupon notes tied to indexes

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 28 – GS Finance Corp. priced $366,000 of callable contingent coupon notes due Feb. 28, 2022 linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 6.2% if each index closes at or above its 50% coupon barrier on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date from August 2017 through November 2021.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless either index finishes below its 50% barrier level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the worse performing index.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the agent.
