Morgantown, W.Va., Aug. 1 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.45 million of callable contingent coupon notes due July 31, 2019 linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 index, the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will be guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 8% if each index closes at or above its barrier level, 60% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.
The notes will be callable at par plus the coupon, if any, on any interest payment date.
If the return of each index is greater than or equal to negative 40%, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst-performing index.
Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
