Buffalo, N.Y., Sept. 27 – GS Finance Corp. priced $2.79 million of callable contingent coupon equity-linked notes due May 29, 2024 linked to the shares of Halliburton Co., 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 quarterly coupon if the stock closes at or above the coupon barrier price, 70% of the initial price, on the valuation date for that period. The first two coupons, if payable, will pay at a rate of $36 per $1,000 principal amount. The final, if payable, will be $24 per note.
The notes are callable at par plus any contingent coupon otherwise due on any quarterly call valuation date.
If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless the shares finish below the 70% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to decline.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the agent.
