New Issue: RBC sells $685,000 contingent coupon autocallables tied to energy stocks

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, July 5 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $685,000 of autocallable contingent coupon barrier notes due June 13, 2019 linked to the commons stocks of Devon Energy Corp. and Valero Energy Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 17% if each stock closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called if each stock closes at or above its initial level on any interest payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless either stock finishes below its 70% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing stock.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the underwriter.
