New Issue: GS Finance sells $1 million contingent coupon autocalls on three bank stocks

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, Nov. 21 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1 million of autocallable contingent coupon equity-linked notes due March 22, 2027 linked to the stocks of Wells Fargo & Co., U.S. Bancorp and Bank of America Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 24% if each stock closes above its coupon barrier price, 80% of its initial price, on a related determination date.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus coupon if each stock closes at or above its initial share price on any monthly call observation date after three months.

If the notes are not called and the final share price of each stock is greater than or equal to its initial share price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon.

Investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst performer, but still receive the final coupon, if the worst performer declines no more than 20%.

Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline of the worst performer from its initial share price.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
