New Issue: Goldman prices $430,000 9.02% contingent yield trigger autocalls on Russell, Nikkei

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Nov. 12 – GS Finance Corp. priced $430,000 of trigger autocallable contingent yield notes due Oct. 31, 2023 linked to the lesser performing of the Russell 2000 index and the Nikkei 225 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 9.02% if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its 70% trigger level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the worse performing index.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC are the agents.
