New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $750,000 contingent coupon autocallables linked to airline stocks

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 9 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $750,000 of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due Sept. 10, 2021 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of American Airlines Group Inc., Delta Air Lines, Inc., Southwest Airlines Co. and United Airlines Holdings, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 15.15% per year if each stock closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 50% of its initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter.

Beginning March 5, 2020, the notes will be automatically called at par if each stock closes at or above its initial share price on any quarterly observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any stock finishes below its knock-in price, 60% of its initial share price, in which case investors will be exposed to the decline of the least-performing stock from its initial share price.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
