New Issue: HSBC sells $700,000 contingent income barrier autocalls with memory on three stocks

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, March 16 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $700,000 of autocallable contingent income barrier notes with memory coupon due Sept. 14, 2022 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of United Continental Holdings Inc., Airbnb, Inc. and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 22.6% if each stock closes at or above its coupon trigger level, 65% of its initial level, on the observation date for that period. Any previously unpaid coupons will also be paid.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the coupon if each stock closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly call observation date.

If the notes are not called and each stock finishes at or above its 65% barrier value, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the least-performing stock.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
