Olympia, Wash., Nov. 13 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.13 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due Nov. 12, 2021 linked to the common stock of Automatic Data Processing, Inc., Costco Wholesale Corp. and Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 14.51% if each stock closes at or above its trigger level, 65% of its initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter.
Beginning in May 2020, the notes will be automatically called at par if each stock closes at or above its initial share price on any quarterly observation date.
The payout at maturity will be par unless any stock finishes below its trigger level, in which case investors will be exposed to the decline of the least-performing stock.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
