New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $883,000 13.25% contingent income autocallables tied to Tesla

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Oct. 25 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $883,000 of contingent income autocallable securities due Oct. 22, 2020 linked to the common stock of Tesla Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 13.25% if the stock closes at or above the 65% downside threshold on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the stock closes at or above the initial level on any determination date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless the stock finishes below its 65% downside threshold, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
