New Issue: GS Finance prices $502,000 10% contingent coupon autocalls on Amazon

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., Aug. 2 – GS Finance Corp. priced $502,000 of autocallable contingent coupon equity-linked notes due Aug. 3, 2021 linked to Amazon.com, Inc. common stock, 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 at an annual rate of 10% if Amazon stock closes at or above the barrier level, 80% of the initial price, on the valuation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if Amazon shares close at or above the initial share price on any quarterly valuation date from January 2019 through April 2021.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless the stock finishes below the 80% barrier level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the agent.
