New Issue: Goldman prices $2.03 million 7%-15% contingent coupon callables tied to Russell, S&P

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Nov. 9 – GS Finance Corp. priced $2.03 million of callable contingent coupon notes due Oct. 31, 2028 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 will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate if each index closes at or above its 75% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter. The contingent coupon will be 7% for the first 20 payment dates, 9% for the next 12 dates and 15% for the final eight dates.

The notes are callable at par on any review date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index closes below its 50% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.

The guarantor is Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the agent.
