By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 3 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $1.06 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Aug. 3, 2016 linked to the common stock of Palo Alto Networks, Inc., according to a 424B2 filed with Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 17% if Palo Alto Networks shares close at or above the coupon barrier level, 75% of the initial share price, on the determination date for that month.

The notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon if Palo Alto Networks shares close at or above the initial share price on any of the first five determination dates.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon unless the stock finishes below the 75% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is handling distribution.
