New Issue: GS Finance sells $6.78 million trigger callable contingent yield notes on three indexes
By Wendy Van Sickle
Columbus, Ohio, May 31 – GS Finance Corp. priced $6.78 million of trigger callable contingent yield notes due May 26, 2022 linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index, the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on every day that quarter. The contingent coupon rate is 9.3% per year.
After six months, the notes are callable at par of $10 on each quarterly observation date other than the final one.
If the notes are not called and each index finishes at or above its coupon barrier level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon, if any, unless any index finishes below 55% of its initial level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the loss of the least performing index.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
UBS Financial Services Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC are the agents.
