New Issue: Barclays prices $3 million 9.5% fixed-coupon autocalls on four banking stocks

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., March 14 – Barclays Bank plc priced $3 million of 9.5% autocallable fixed-coupon notes due March 2, 2026 linked to the stock performance of Wells Fargo & Co., U.S. Bancorp, PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. and Bank of America Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be payable monthly.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the fixed coupon if each stock closes at or above its initial level on any monthly call valuation date after six months.

If the notes have not been called and each stock finishes at or above its 50% barrier, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final fixed coupon.

Otherwise, investors will receive a number of shares of the worst performer equal to $1,000 divided by its initial level or, at the option of the issuer, the cash equivalent.

Barclays is the agent.
