New Issue: GS Finance prices $1.25 million callable contingent coupon notes linked to indexes, EM ETFs

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., May 16 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.25 million of callable contingent coupon notes due May 19, 2025 linked to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund, 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.

Each month, the notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 3.4% if each underlying’s closing level is greater than or equal to 70% of its initial level on the observation date for that month.

Beginning in November 2019, the notes are callable at par on any coupon payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any underlying declines by more than 40%, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the least-performing underlying declines from its initial level.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
