New Issue: GS sells $4.06 million autocallable contingent coupon notes on indexes

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., April 10 – GS Finance Corp. priced $4.06 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due April 5, 2027 linked to 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 the rate of 5.5% per year if each index closes at or above its 50% barrier level on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly review date beginning in March 2018 and ending in December 2026.

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.
