New Issue: HSBC sells $4.48 million contingent income autocallables tied to Valero

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 10 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $4.48 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Feb. 6, 2020 linked to Valero Energy Corp. stock, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 10.5% if the stock closes at or above the downside threshold level, 70% of the initial share price, on a determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon if the shares close at or above the initial share price on any of the first 11 determination dates.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the stock finishes below its 70% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC is handling distribution.
