Columbus, Ohio, June 11 – GS Finance Corp. priced $770,000 of autocallable contingent coupon notes due June 5, 2020 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 are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
The notes pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.75% if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon trigger level on the related observation date.
The notes will be called automatically at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date after six months.
If each index finishes positive or has never closed below 70% of its initial level any during the life of the notes, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon.
Otherwise, the payout will be par plus the return of the lesser-performing index with full exposure to losses.
Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
