New Issue: BMO sells $16.14 million contingent coupon autocallable reverse convertibles on ETFs
By Wendy Van Sickle
Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 1 – Bank of Montreal priced $16.14 million of autocallable reverse convertible notes with contingent coupons due Nov. 28, 2025 linked to the least performing of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust, the iShares Russell 2000 ETF and the SPDR Dow Jones industrial average ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Interest is payable monthly at an annualized rate of 9% if the funds close above their coupon barriers, 60% of their initial levels, on the observation date for the month.
The notes will be called at par if both funds close at or above their initial share prices on any monthly trigger observation date after six months.
If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par unless either fund finishes below its trigger level, 60% of its initial price, in which case investors will receive a number of shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price for that fund or, at the issuer’s option, an amount in cash equal to the value of those shares.
BMO Capital Markets is the agent.
