New York, Aug. 20 – Bank of Nova Scotia priced $2.94 million of 0% autocallable contingent coupon buffer notes with memory coupon due Feb. 24, 2022 linked to the common stock of Freeport-McMoRan Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 15.55% if the stock closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on the related quarterly observation date. Previously unpaid coupons will also be paid.
The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if the stock closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date prior to the final valuation date.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the coupon unless the stock finishes below the 70% buffer, in which case investors will lose 1.42857% for each 1% decline of the stock beyond the 30% buffer.
Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. is the agent. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is the placement agent.
