San Luis Obispo, Calif., April 28 – Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce priced $93,000 of autocallable equity-linked notes due April 30, 2018 tied to the common stock of U.S. Steel Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a contingent coupon of 15.4% per year if the U.S. Steel stock price is equal to or greater than the barrier price, 70% of the initial price, on any quarterly valuation date.
The notes will be automatically called at par plus interest if the price of U.S. Steel stock is greater than or equal to the initial price on any quarterly valuation date beginning April 27, 2016.
If the notes are not called and the final share price is at least 70% of the initial price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline in the stock price from the initial price.
Janney Montgomery Scott is the underwriter.
