New Issue: BMO sells $3.6 million autocallable barrier notes with contingent coupons on basket

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., April 5 – Bank of Montreal priced $3.6 million of autocallable barrier notes with contingent coupons due March 31, 2025 linked to an equally-weighted basket of stocks, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co.

The notes will pay a quarterly coupon equal to 10.5% per year if the basket’s closing level is at least 60% of its initial level on the corresponding observation date.

The notes will be automatically redeemed at par plus the contingent coupon if the basket closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called and the basket finishes at or above its 60% trigger level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon.

Otherwise, investors will receive a number of shares of each basket component equal to the product of its weighting and $1,000, divided by the component’s initial level. The issuer may opt to pay the cash equivalent of any component’s physical delivery amount.

BMO Capital Markets Corp. is the agent.
