New Issue: GS Finance sells $2 million capped in-gears notes linked to Russell

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, March 29 – GS Finance Corp. priced $2 million of 0% capped in-gears due July 6, 2026 tied to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

The initial index level will be the average of the index’s closing levels on each day during the period from and including March 15 to and including June 11. The final index level will be the average of the index’s closing levels on each day during the period from and including April 1, 2026 to and including June 30, 2026.

If the index finishes at or above 98% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus (i) 17.6% plus (ii) an additional 0.62% for each 1% by which the final level index exceeds 98% of its initial level, subject to a maximum settlement amount of $14.24 per $10.00 note.

If the index finishes below its 98% buffer level but at or above its 88% downside threshold, the payout will be par plus 1.76% for every 1% by which the final index level exceeds 88% of the initial index level.

If the index finishes below its 88% downside threshold, investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline in the index beyond 12%.
