Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 3 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due Nov. 3, 2027 linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 7.05% if each index closes at or above its 80% coupon barrier on the review date for that quarter.
The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date beginning in April 2019.
The payout at maturity will be par unless either index falls by more than 40%, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the worse performing index beyond 40%.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the agent.
