New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1.06 million contingent coupon autocallables linked to retailers

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., April 1 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1.06 million of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due March 29, 2022 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of Home Depot, Inc., Lowe’s Cos., Inc. and Walmart Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 8.5% per year if each stock closes at or above its knock-in level, 70% of its initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter.

Beginning Sept. 25, the notes will be automatically called at par if each stock closes at or above its trigger level, 90% of its initial share price, on any quarterly observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any stock closes below its knock-in level during the life of the notes, in which case the payout will be par plus the return of the least-performing stock, subject to a maximum payout of par.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
