New Issue: HSBC prices $545,000 9.5% autocallable reverse convertibles linked to Tenet

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 19 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $545,000 of 9.5% annualized autocallable reverse convertible notes due Feb. 19, 2016 linked to Tenet Healthcare Corp. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable quarterly.

The notes will be called at par if the stock closes above its initial level on any quarterly review date beginning Aug. 14, 2015.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the stock ever falls below the barrier level – 68% of the initial share price – during the life of the notes and finishes below the initial share price, in which case the payout will be a number of Tenet shares equal to par divided by the initial share price.
