Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 22 – GS Finance Corp. priced $6.15 million of 0% autocallable underlier-linked notes due Aug. 28, 2023 based on the performance of the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
After the first year, the notes will be automatically called at par plus a 10.2% annualized call premium if both components close at or above their call levels on any semiannual call observation date.
The call level will be equal to the initial levels on the first observation date and will step down by 150 basis points on each subsequent date.
If the notes are not called and both components finish at or above 88% of their initial levels, the payout at maturity will be $1,510 per $1,000 principal amount.
If either or both components finish below 88% of their initial levels but the return of each component is at least negative 40%, the payout will be $1,100 per $1,000 principal amount.
If the return of either component is less than negative 40%, the payout will be par plus the return of the lesser performing component, with full exposure to losses.
Goldman, Sachs & Co. is the agent.
