Buffalo, N.Y., Feb. 23 – Bank of Nova Scotia priced $1.55 million of market-linked securities – autocallable with contingent coupon and contingent downside due Feb. 21, 2025 linked to the stock performance of Moderna, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 17.5% if the stock closes at or above its 60% coupon threshold on the observation date for that period.
The notes will be called at par plus a coupon if the stock closes at or above its initial level on any monthly observation date after six months.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless the stock finishes below its 60% downside threshold, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline of the stock from its initial level.
