New Issue: Goldman prices $9.8 million contingent coupon autocallables tied to S&P 500, Russell

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, June 1 – GS Finance Corp. priced $9.8 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due May 23, 2024 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 8.1% if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any coupon determination dates after two years.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless either index finishes below its 60% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
