Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., guaranteed by Citigroup Inc., is issuing unsecured Step Down Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB). The notes have a $10.00 stated principal amount, aggregate proceeds of $2,892,500.00, and a fixed call return rate of 15.60% per annum. They may be automatically called quarterly if KWEB’s closing price is at or above the initial price of $37.74, or at or above the downside threshold of $30.19 (80% of the initial price) on the final valuation date, paying call prices up to $13.12 at maturity.

If the notes are not called and KWEB finishes below the downside threshold on the final valuation date, repayment is reduced dollar-for-dollar with the decline in KWEB, potentially to zero, so investors can lose their entire investment. The notes pay no interest, do not pass through ETF dividends, will not be listed on an exchange, and have an initial estimated value of $9.582 per note, below the issue price. All payments depend on the creditworthiness of the issuer and guarantor.

Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. $2,892,500 Step Down Trigger Autocallable Notes

 

Linked to the Shares of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF Due November 30, 2027

All payments due on the notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.

 Investment Description

The Step Down Trigger Autocallable Notes (the “notes”) are unsecured, unsubordinated debt obligations of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. (the “issuer”), guaranteed by Citigroup Inc. (the “guarantor”), linked to the performance of the shares of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (the “underlying”).  If the closing price of the underlying is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price on any valuation date prior to the final valuation date, or greater than or equal to the downside threshold on the final valuation date, we will automatically call the notes and pay you a call price equal to the stated principal amount per note plus a call return based on the call return rate.  The call return increases the longer the notes are outstanding, as described below, based on a fixed call return rate per annum.  However, if by maturity the notes have not been called and the closing price of the underlying is less than the downside threshold on the final valuation date, you will receive less than the stated principal amount of your notes, and possibly nothing, at maturity, resulting in a loss that is proportionate to the decline in the closing price of the underlying from the trade date to the final valuation date, up to a 100% loss of your investment.

Investing in the notes involves significant risks.  You may lose a substantial portion or all of your initial investment.  You will not receive dividends or other distributions paid on the underlying or the stocks held by the ETF.  The notes do not pay interest.  The contingent repayment of the stated principal amount plus a call return applies only if you hold the notes to maturity.  Any payment on the notes, including any repayment of the stated principal amount, is subject to the creditworthiness of the issuer and the guarantor and is not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. If the issuer and the guarantor were to default on their payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.

 Features    Key Dates

q     Call Return — We will automatically call the notes for a call price equal to the stated principal amount plus a call return based on the call return rate if the closing price of the underlying is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price on any valuation date (beginning one year after issuance) prior to the final valuation date or greater than or equal to the downside threshold on the final valuation date.  The call return increases the longer the notes are outstanding, based on a fixed call return rate per annum.  If the notes are not called, investors will have full downside market exposure to the underlying at maturity.

q     Downside Exposure — If you hold the notes to maturity and the notes have not been called on any valuation date, including the final valuation date, that will necessarily mean that the closing price of the underlying is less than the downside threshold on the final valuation date and we will pay you less than the stated principal amount of your notes, and possibly nothing, at maturity.  The resulting loss will be proportionate to the full negative underlying return. Any payment on the notes is subject to the creditworthiness of the issuer and guarantor. If the issuer and the guarantor were to default on their obligations, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.

The call return increases the longer the notes are outstanding and will be based on a fixed call return rate of 15.60% per annum.

See “Call Settlement Dates and Call Returns/Call Prices for the Offering of the Notes” on page PS-6.

Payment at maturity (per $10.00 stated principal amount of notes)

If the notes are not called, the final underlying price will therefore necessarily be less than the downside threshold on the final valuation date, and we will pay you a cash payment on the maturity date that is less than your stated principal amount and may be zero, resulting in a loss that is proportionate to the negative underlying return, equal to:

$10.00 + ($10.00 × underlying return)

Accordingly, you may lose all or a substantial portion of your stated principal amount at maturity, depending on how significantly the underlying declines.

 Summary Risk Factors

An investment in the notes is significantly riskier than an investment in conventional debt securities.  The notes are subject to all of the risks associated with an investment in our conventional debt securities (guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.), including the risk that we and Citigroup Inc. may default on our obligations under the notes, and are also subject to risks associated with the underlying.  Accordingly, the notes are suitable only for investors who are capable of understanding the complexities and risks of the notes.  You should consult your own financial, tax and legal advisers as to the risks of an investment in the notes and the suitability of the notes in light of your particular circumstances.

 

The following is a summary of certain key risk factors for investors in the notes.  You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating to an investment in the notes contained in the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” beginning on page EA-7 in the accompanying product supplement.  You should also carefully read the risk factors included in the accompanying prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus, including Citigroup Inc.’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which describe risks relating to the business of Citigroup Inc. more generally.  

 

¨You may lose some or all of your investment — The notes differ from ordinary debt securities in that we will not necessarily repay the full stated principal amount of your notes at maturity.  Instead, your return on the notes is linked to the performance of the underlying and, if the notes are not automatically called, will depend on the extent to which the final underlying price is less than the downside threshold.  If the notes are not automatically called on any of the valuation dates, which necessarily means that the final underlying price is less than the downside threshold, you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the notes for every 1% by which the final underlying price is less than the initial underlying price.  There is no minimum payment at maturity on the notes, and you may lose up to all of your investment in the notes.

 

¨The appreciation potential of the notes is limited — Your potential total return on the notes at maturity or upon earlier automatic call is limited to the call return, which will only be received if the notes are called. Because the call return increases the longer the notes have been outstanding and because the notes could be called as early as one year after the settlement date, you may not receive the call return associated with a later valuation date. You will not participate in any potential appreciation of the underlying even though you may be subject to its full downside performance. As a result, the return on an investment in the notes may be significantly less than the return on a hypothetical direct investment in the underlying.

 

¨The repayment of principal plus a call return is contingent, and you will have full downside exposure to the underlying if the final underlying price is less than the downside threshold — If the notes are not automatically called on any valuation date prior to the final valuation date and, on the final valuation date, the closing price of the underlying is less than the initial underlying price but greater than the downside threshold, you will receive your stated principal amount plus the call return at maturity notwithstanding that the underlying has declined from the initial underlying price.  However, if the final underlying price on the final valuation date is below the downside threshold, the contingent repayment of principal plus a call return will not apply, and you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the notes for every 1% by which the final underlying price is less than the initial underlying price.  The notes will have full downside exposure to the decline of the underlying if the final underlying price is below the downside threshold.  As a result, you may lose your entire investment in the notes.  Further, this contingent repayment of principal plus a call return applies only if you hold the notes to maturity.  If you are able to sell the notes prior to maturity, you may have to sell them for a loss even if the price of the underlying is greater than the downside threshold at that time.  See “The value of the notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors” below.

 

¨The notes do not pay interest — Unlike conventional debt securities, the notes do not pay interest or any other amounts prior to maturity or earlier automatic call. You should not invest in the notes if you seek current income during the term of the notes.

 

¨Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the underlying or the stocks held by the underlying — You will not have voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying shares or any of the stocks held by the underlying. It is important to understand that, for purposes of measuring the performance of the underlying, the prices used will not reflect the receipt or reinvestment of dividends or distributions on the underlying or the stocks held by the underlying. Dividend or distribution yield on the underlying or the stocks held by the underlying would be expected to represent a significant portion of the overall return on a direct investment in the underlying or the stocks held by the underlying, but will not be reflected in the performance of the underlying as measured for purposes of the notes (except to the extent that dividends and distributions reduce the price of the underlying).

 

¨The probability that the underlying will fall below the downside threshold on the final valuation date will depend in part on the volatility of the underlying — “Volatility” refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the price of the underlying.  In general, the greater the volatility of the underlying, the greater the probability that the underlying will experience a large decline over the term of the notes and fall below the downside threshold on the final valuation date.  The underlying has historically experienced significant volatility.  As a result, there is a significant risk that the underlying will fall below the downside threshold on the final valuation date and that you will incur a significant loss on your investment in the notes.  The terms of the notes are set, in part, based on expectations about the volatility of the underlying as of the trade date.  If expectations about the volatility of the underlying change over the term of the notes, the value of the notes may be adversely affected, and if the actual volatility of the underlying proves to be greater than initially expected, the notes may prove to be riskier than expected on the trade date.

 

¨The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. — Any payment on the notes will be made by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and is guaranteed by Citigroup Inc., and therefore is subject to the credit risk of both Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc.  If we default on our obligations under the notes and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive any payments that become due under the notes.  As a result, the value of the

 

PS-7 

 

notes prior to maturity will be affected by changes in the market’s view of our and Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness.  Any decline, or anticipated decline, in either of our or Citigroup Inc.’s credit ratings or increase, or anticipated increase, in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking either of our or Citigroup Inc.’s credit risk is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes.

 

¨The performance of the notes will depend on the closing price of the underlying solely on the valuation dates — The performance of the notes (including whether the notes are automatically called and, if they are not called, the amount of your payment at maturity) will depend on the closing price of the underlying only on the valuation dates.  You will not receive the stated principal amount of your notes at maturity if the closing price of the underlying on the final valuation date is less than the downside threshold, even if the closing price of the underlying is greater than the downside threshold on other days during the term of the notes.  Moreover, your notes will be automatically called prior to maturity if the closing price of the underlying is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price on any valuation date prior to the final valuation date, even if the closing price of the underlying is less than the initial underlying price on other days during the term of the notes.  Because the performance of the notes depends on the closing price of the underlying on a small number of dates, the performance of the notes will be particularly sensitive to volatility in the closing price of the underlying, particularly around the valuation dates.  You should understand that the price of the underlying has historically been highly volatile.  See “The KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF” in this pricing supplement.

 

¨The notes may be automatically called prior to maturity — Beginning one year after issuance, on any valuation date occurring quarterly during the term of the notes, the notes will be automatically called if the closing price of the underlying on that valuation date is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price.  Thus, the term of the notes may be limited to as short as one year.  The earlier the notes are automatically called, the lower the amount of the call return you will receive.  If the notes are automatically called prior to maturity, you may not be able to reinvest your funds in another investment that provides a similar yield with a similar level of risk.

 

¨The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity — The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the notes.  CGMI currently intends to make a secondary market in relation to the notes and to provide an indicative bid price for the notes on a daily basis.  Any indicative bid price for the notes provided by CGMI will be determined in CGMI’s sole discretion, taking into account prevailing market conditions and other relevant factors, and will not be a representation by CGMI that the notes can be sold at that price, or at all.  CGMI may suspend or terminate making a market and providing indicative bid prices without notice, at any time and for any reason.  If CGMI suspends or terminates making a market, there may be no secondary market at all for the notes because it is likely that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your notes prior to maturity.  Accordingly, an investor must be prepared to hold the notes until maturity.

 

¨The estimated value of the notes on the trade date, based on CGMI’s proprietary pricing models and our internal funding rate, is less than the issue price — The difference is attributable to certain costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the notes that are included in the issue price.  These costs include (i) hedging and other costs incurred by us and our affiliates in connection with the offering of the notes and (ii) the expected profit (which may be more or less than actual profit) to CGMI or other of our affiliates in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes.  These costs adversely affect the economic terms of the notes because, if they were lower, the economic terms of the notes would be more favorable to you.  The economic terms of the notes are also likely to be adversely affected by the use of our internal funding rate, rather than our secondary market rate, to price the notes.  See “The estimated value of the notes would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate” below.

 

¨The estimated value of the notes was determined for us by our affiliate using proprietary pricing models — CGMI derived the estimated value disclosed on the cover page of this pricing supplement from its proprietary pricing models.  In doing so, it may have made discretionary judgments about the inputs to its models, such as the volatility of the underlying, dividend yields on the underlying and stocks held by the issuer of the underlying and interest rates.  CGMI’s views on these inputs may differ from your or others’ views, and as an underwriter in this offering, CGMI’s interests may conflict with yours.  Both the models and the inputs to the models may prove to be wrong and therefore not an accurate reflection of the value of the notes.  Moreover, the estimated value of the notes set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement may differ from the value that we or our affiliates may determine for the notes for other purposes, including for accounting purposes.  You should not invest in the notes because of the estimated value of the notes. Instead, you should be willing to hold the notes to maturity irrespective of the initial estimated value.

 

¨The estimated value of the notes would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate — The estimated value of the notes included in this pricing supplement is calculated based on our internal funding rate, which is the rate at which we are willing to borrow funds through the issuance of the notes.  Our internal funding rate is generally lower than our secondary market rate, which is the rate that CGMI will use in determining the value of the notes for purposes of any purchases of the notes from you in the secondary market.  If the estimated value included in this pricing supplement were based on our secondary market rate, rather than our internal funding rate, it would likely be lower.  We determine our internal funding rate based on factors such as the costs associated with the notes, which are generally higher than the costs associated with conventional debt securities, and our liquidity needs and preferences.  Our internal funding rate is not an interest rate that we will pay to investors in the notes, which do not bear interest.  

 

Because there is not an active market for traded instruments referencing our outstanding debt obligations, CGMI determines our secondary market rate based on the market price of traded instruments referencing the debt obligations of Citigroup Inc., our parent company and the guarantor of all payments due on the notes, but subject to adjustments that CGMI makes in its sole discretion.  As a result, our secondary market rate is not a market-determined measure of our creditworthiness, but rather reflects the market’s perception of our parent company’s creditworthiness as adjusted for discretionary factors such as CGMI’s preferences with respect to purchasing the notes prior to maturity.

 

PS-8 

 

¨The estimated value of the notes is not an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing to buy the notes from you in the secondary market — Any such secondary market price will fluctuate over the term of the notes based on the market and other factors described in the next risk factor.  Moreover, unlike the estimated value included in this pricing supplement, any value of the notes determined for purposes of a secondary market transaction will be based on our secondary market rate, which will likely result in a lower value for the notes than if our internal funding rate were used.  In addition, any secondary market price for the notes will be reduced by a bid-ask spread, which may vary depending on the aggregate stated principal amount of the notes to be purchased in the secondary market transaction, and the expected cost of unwinding related hedging transactions.  As a result, it is likely that any secondary market price for the notes will be less than the issue price.

 

¨The value of the notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors — As described under “Valuation of the Notes” below, the payout on the notes could be replicated by a hypothetical package of financial instruments consisting of a fixed-income bond and one or more derivative instruments.  As a result, the factors that influence the values of fixed-income bonds and derivative instruments will also influence the terms of the notes at issuance and the value of the notes prior to maturity.  Accordingly, the value of your notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on the price and volatility of the underlying and a number of other factors, including the price and volatility of the stocks held by the issuer of the underlying, dividend yields on the underlying, interest rates generally, the time remaining to maturity and our and Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness, as reflected in our secondary market rate. Changes in the price of the underlying may not result in a comparable change in the value of your notes. You should understand that the value of your notes at any time prior to maturity may be significantly less than the issue price.  The stated payout from the issuer, including the call return, only applies if you hold the notes to maturity or earlier automatic call, as applicable.

 

¨Immediately following issuance, any secondary market bid price provided by CGMI, and the value that will be indicated on any brokerage account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates, will reflect a temporary upward adjustment — The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period.  See “Valuation of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

 

¨The KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF is subject to risks associated with emerging markets — The stocks included in the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF have been issued by companies in an emerging market. Stocks issued by companies in emerging markets may be subject to heightened risks, including risks of relatively unstable governments, nationalization of businesses, restrictions on foreign ownership, prohibitions on the repatriation of assets and less protection of property rights. The economies of countries with emerging markets may be based on only a few industries, be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions and suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens or inflation rates. Local securities markets may trade a small number of securities and be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially increasing price volatility.

 

¨The KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF is subject to risks associated with non-U.S. markets — Investments linked to the value of non-U.S. stocks involve risks associated with the securities markets in those countries, including risks of volatility in those markets, governmental intervention in those markets and cross-shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about companies in some of these jurisdictions than about U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC. Further, non-U.S. companies are generally subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements and securities trading rules that are different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. The prices of securities in foreign markets may be affected by political, economic, financial and social factors in those countries, or global regions, including changes in government, economic and fiscal policies and currency exchange laws. Moreover, the economies in such countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the economy of the United States in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency.

 

¨Fluctuations in exchange rates will affect the closing value of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF — Because the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF includes stocks that trade outside the United States and the closing value of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF is based on the U.S. dollar value of those stocks, the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF is subject to currency exchange rate risk with respect to the currency in which such stocks trade. Exchange rate movements may be volatile and may be driven by numerous factors specific to the relevant countries, including the supply of, and the demand for, the applicable currencies, as well as government policy and intervention and macroeconomic factors. Exchange rate movements may also be influenced significantly by speculative trading. In general, if the U.S. dollar strengthens against the currency in which the stocks included in the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF trade, the closing value of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF will be adversely affected for that reason alone.

 

¨The KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF is subject to concentrated risks associated with the internet sector in China — The securities held by the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF are concentrated in China-based companies whose primary business or businesses are in the internet and internet-related sectors. Companies in these sectors are subject to concentrated risks, including risks of changes in technology, the competitive environment and government regulation. The underlying shares of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF may be more volatile and be more adversely affected by a single negative economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting the internet and internet-related sectors in China than a different investment in a more broadly diversified group of industries.

 

¨Our offering of the notes is not a recommendation of the underlying — The fact that we are offering the notes does not mean that we believe that investing in an instrument linked to the underlying is likely to achieve favorable returns. In fact, as we are part of a global financial institution, our affiliates may have positions (including short positions) in the underlying or the stocks that are held by the issuer of the underlying or in instruments related to the underlying or such stocks, and may publish research or express opinions, that in each case are inconsistent with an investment linked to the underlying. These and other activities of our affiliates may affect the price of the underlying in a way that has a negative impact on your interests as a holder of the notes.

 

PS-9 

 

¨Our affiliates, or UBS or its affiliates, may publish research, express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with investing in or holding the notes — Any such research, opinions or recommendations could affect the closing price of the underlying and the value of the notes.  Our affiliates, and UBS and its affiliates, publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the notes, or express opinions or provide recommendations that may be inconsistent with purchasing or holding the notes.  Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by our affiliates or by UBS or its affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice.  These and other activities of our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may adversely affect the price of the underlying and may have a negative impact on your interests as a holder of the notes.  Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the notes and the underlying to which the notes are linked.

 

¨The notes may become linked to assets other than the original underlying upon the occurrence of a reorganization event or upon the delisting of the underlying For example, if the ETF enters into a merger agreement that provides for holders of the underlying to receive shares of another entity, the shares of such other entity will become the underlying for all purposes of the notes upon consummation of the merger. Additionally, if the underlying is delisted, or the ETF is otherwise terminated, the calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, select shares of another ETF to be the underlying. See “Description of the Securities— Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” and “—Delisting, Liquidation or Termination of an Underlying ETF” in the accompanying product supplement.

 

¨An adjustment will not be made for all events that may have a dilutive effect on or otherwise adversely affect the market price of the underlying Moreover, the adjustments we do make may not fully offset the dilutive or adverse effect of the particular event. Investors in the notes may be adversely affected by such an event in a circumstance in which a direct holder of the underlying would not.

 

¨Trading and other transactions by our affiliates, or by UBS or its affiliates, in the equity and equity derivative markets may impair the value of the notes — We have hedged our exposure under the notes through CGMI or other of our affiliates, who have entered into equity and/or equity derivative transactions, such as over-the-counter options or exchange-traded instruments, relating to the underlying or the stocks held by the ETF and other financial instruments related to the underlying or such stocks and may adjust such positions during the term of the notes.  It is possible that our affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging activities while the value of the notes declines.  Our affiliates and UBS and its affiliates may also engage in trading in the underlying or the stocks held by the ETF or in instruments linked to the underlying or such stocks on a regular basis as part of their respective general broker-dealer and other businesses, for proprietary accounts, for other accounts under management or to facilitate transactions for customers, including block transactions.  Such trading and hedging activities may affect the price of the underlying and reduce the return on your investment in the notes.  Our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may also issue or underwrite other notes or financial or derivative instruments with returns linked or related to the underlying.  By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates could adversely affect the value of the notes.  Any of the foregoing activities described in this paragraph may reflect trading strategies that differ from, or are in direct opposition to, investors’ trading and investment strategies relating to the notes.

 

¨Our affiliates, or UBS or its affiliates, may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of their respective business activities — Our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may currently or from time to time engage in business with the ETF or the issuers of the stocks held by the ETF, including extending loans to, making equity investments in or providing advisory services to such issuers.  In the course of this business, our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may acquire non-public information about those issuers, which they will not disclose to you.  Moreover, if any of our affiliates or UBS or any of its affiliates is or becomes a creditor of any such issuer, they may exercise any remedies against that issuer that are available to them without regard to your interests.

 

¨The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the notes — If certain events occur, such as market disruption events, events with respect to the ETF that may require a dilution adjustment or the delisting of the ETF, CGMI, as calculation agent, will be required to make discretionary judgments that could significantly affect what you receive at maturity. Such judgments could include, among other things, any price required to be determined under the notes.  In addition, if certain events occur, CGMI will be required to make certain discretionary judgments that could significantly affect your payment at maturity.  Such judgments could include, among other things:

 

¨determining whether a market disruption event has occurred;

 

¨if a market disruption event occurs on any valuation date, determining whether to postpone the valuation date;

 

¨determining the price of the underlying if the price of the underlying is not otherwise available or a market disruption event has occurred;

 

¨determining the appropriate adjustments to be made to the terms of the notes upon the occurrence of an event described under “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement; and

 

¨selecting a successor ETF or performing an alternative calculation of the price of the underlying if the underlying is delisted or the ETF is liquidated or otherwise terminated (see “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Delisting, Liquidation or Termination of an Underlying ETF” in the accompanying product supplement).

 

In making these judgments, the calculation agent’s interests as an affiliate of ours could be adverse to your interests as a holder of the notes.

 

PS-10 

 

¨The price and performance of the underlying may not completely track the performance of the index underlying the ETF or the net asset value per share of the ETF — The ETF does not fully replicate the underlying index that it seeks to track and may hold securities different from those included in the index underlying the ETF.  In addition, the performance of the underlying will reflect transaction costs and fees of the ETF that are not included in the calculation of the index underlying the ETF. In addition, the ETF may not hold all of the shares included in, and may hold securities and derivative instruments that are not included in, the index underlying the ETF.  All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the performance of the underlying and the index underlying the ETF. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the equity securities constituting the index underlying the ETF or held by the ETF (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the performances of the underlying and the index underlying the ETF. Finally, because the underlying is traded on NYSE Arca, Inc. and is subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of the underlying may differ from the net asset value per share of the underlying.

 

During periods of market volatility, securities underlying the ETF may be unavailable in the secondary market, market participants may be unable to calculate accurately the net asset value per share of the underlying and the liquidity of the underlying may be adversely affected. This kind of market volatility may also disrupt the ability of market participants to create and redeem shares of the ETF.  Further, market volatility may adversely affect, sometimes materially, the prices at which market participants are willing to buy and sell the underlying. As a result, under these circumstances, the market value of the underlying may vary substantially from the net asset value per share of the underlying.  For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the underlying may not correlate with the performance of the index underlying the ETF and/or the net asset value per share of the underlying, which could materially and adversely affect the value of the notes in the secondary market and/or reduce your payment at maturity.

 

¨Changes made by the investment advisers to the ETF or by the sponsor of the index underlying the ETF may adversely affect the underlying — We are not affiliated with the investment adviser to the ETF or with the sponsor of the index underlying the ETF. Accordingly, we have no control over any changes such investment adviser or sponsor may make to the ETF or the index underlying the ETF.  Such changes could be made at any time and could adversely affect the performance of the underlying.

 

¨The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes are unclear — There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the notes, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”).  Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the notes are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the notes as prepaid forward contracts.  If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of the notes, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the notes might be materially and adversely affected. Even if the treatment of the notes as prepaid forward contracts is respected, a note may be treated as a “constructive ownership transaction,” with potentially adverse consequences described below under “United States Federal Tax Considerations.” Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax treatment of the notes, possibly retroactively.

 

If you are a non-U.S. investor, you should review the discussion of withholding tax issues in “United States Federal Tax Considerations—Non-U.S. Holders” below.

 

You should read carefully the discussion under “United States Federal Tax Considerations” and “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” in the accompanying product supplement and “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in this pricing supplement.  You should also consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

 Hypothetical Examples

Hypothetical terms only. Actual terms may vary. See the cover page for actual offering terms.

 

The examples below illustrate the hypothetical payment upon automatic call or at maturity for a $10.00 stated principal amount note with the following assumptions*:

 

Stated principal amount: $10.00
Term: 2 years (unless earlier called)
Hypothetical initial underlying price: $100.00
Hypothetical downside threshold: $80.00 (which is 80% of the hypothetical initial underlying price)
Hypothetical call return rate: 15.30% per annum
Valuation dates: Valuation dates will occur quarterly (beginning one year after issuance) as set forth on page PS-6 in this pricing supplement.

 

*(i) The hypothetical call return rate per annum does not represent the actual call return rate per annum and (ii) the hypothetical initial underlying price and downside threshold do not represent the actual initial underlying price and downside threshold, respectively, applicable to the underlying.  The actual call return rate, initial underlying price and downside threshold for the notes are listed on the cover page of this pricing supplement. We have used these hypothetical values, rather than the actual values, to simplify the calculations and aid understanding of how the notes work. However, you should understand that any actual payments on the notes will be calculated based on the actual initial underlying price and downside threshold for the notes and not on the hypothetical values indicated above.

 

Example 1 — Notes are Called on the First Valuation Date

 

Closing price on first valuation date: $110.00 (greater than or equal to initial underlying price, notes are called)
Call price (per $10.00 stated principal amount): $11.53

 

Because the notes are called on the first valuation date, we would pay you on the applicable call settlement date a total call price of $11.53 per $10.00 stated principal amount (a total return on the notes of 15.30%).

 

Example 2 — Notes are Called on the Final Valuation Date; the Final Underlying Price is Greater Than the Downside Threshold

 

Closing price on first valuation date: $86.00 (less than initial underlying price, notes NOT called)
Closing price on second through fourth valuation dates: Various (all less than initial underlying price, notes NOT called)
Closing price on final valuation date: $85.00 (greater than the downside threshold, notes called)
Call Price (per $10.00 stated principal amount):

$10.00 + call return

$10.00 + $3.06

$13.06

 

Because the final underlying price is greater than the downside threshold on the final valuation date, the notes are called and we would pay you at maturity a total of $13.06 (the $10.00 stated principal amount plus the call return of 30.60%).

 

Example 3 — Notes are NOT Called and the Final Underlying Price is Less Than the Downside Threshold on the Final Valuation Date

 

Closing price on first valuation date: $70.00 (less than initial underlying price, notes NOT called)
Closing price on second through fourth valuation dates: Various (all less than initial underlying price, notes NOT called)
Closing price on final valuation date: $30.00 (less than initial underlying price and downside threshold, notes NOT called)
Payment at maturity (per $10.00 stated principal amount):

$10.00 + ($10.00 × underlying return)

$10.00 + (–$7.00)

$3.00

 

Because the notes are not called and the final underlying price is less than the downside threshold on the final valuation date, we would pay you at maturity a total of $3.00 per $10.00 stated principal amount (a 70.00% loss on the notes).

 United States Federal Tax Considerations

You should read carefully the discussion under “United States Federal Tax Considerations” and “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” in the accompanying product supplement and “Summary Risk Factors” in this pricing supplement.  

 

In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, which is based on current market conditions, a note should be treated as a prepaid forward contract for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  By purchasing a note, you agree (in the absence of an administrative determination or judicial ruling to the contrary) to this treatment. There is uncertainty regarding this treatment, and the IRS or a court might not agree with it.  

 

Assuming this treatment of the notes is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result under current law:

 

·You should not recognize taxable income over the term of the notes prior to maturity, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange.

 

·Upon a sale or exchange of a note (including retirement at maturity), you should recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and your tax basis in the note.  Subject to the discussion below concerning the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rules under Section 1260 of the Code, any gain or loss recognized upon a sale, exchange or retirement of a note should be long-term capital gain or loss if you held the note for more than one year.

 

Even if the treatment of the notes as prepaid forward contracts is respected, your purchase of a note may be treated as entry into a “constructive ownership transaction,” within the meaning of Section 1260 of the Code. In that case, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain you would otherwise recognize in respect of your notes would be recharacterized as ordinary income to the extent such gain exceeded the “net underlying long-term capital gain.” Any long-term capital gain recharacterized as ordinary income under Section 1260 would be treated as accruing at a constant rate over the period you held your notes, and you would be subject to an interest charge in respect of the deemed tax liability on the income treated as accruing in prior tax years. Due to the lack of governing authority under Section 1260, our counsel is not able to opine as to whether or how Section 1260 applies to the notes. You should read the section entitled “United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Securities Treated as Prepaid Forward Contracts—Possible Application of Section 1260 of the Code” in the accompanying product supplement for additional information and consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule.

 

We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the treatment of the notes. An alternative characterization of the notes could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the notes, including the timing and character of income recognized. In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have requested comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar financial instruments and have indicated that such transactions may be the subject of future regulations or other guidance. Furthermore, members of Congress have proposed legislative changes to the tax treatment of derivative contracts. Any legislation, Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser regarding possible alternative tax treatments of the notes and potential changes in applicable law.

 

Non-U.S. Holders. Subject to the discussions below and in “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement, if you are a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) of the notes, you generally should not be subject to U.S. federal withholding or income tax in respect of any amount paid to you with respect to the notes, provided that (i) income in respect of the notes is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and (ii) you comply with the applicable certification requirements.

 

As discussed under “United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders” in the accompanying product supplement, Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding tax on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities (“U.S. Underlying Equities”) or indices that include U.S. Underlying Equities.  Section 871(m) generally applies to instruments that substantially replicate the economic performance of one or more U.S. Underlying Equities, as determined based on tests set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations.  However, the regulations, as modified by an IRS notice, exempt financial instruments issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a “delta” of one.  Based on the terms of the notes and representations provided by us, our counsel is of the opinion that the notes should not be treated as transactions that have a “delta” of one within the meaning of the regulations with respect to any U.S. Underlying Equity and, therefore, should not be subject to withholding tax under Section 871(m).  

 

A determination that the notes are not subject to Section 871(m) is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this treatment.  Moreover, Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including your other transactions.  You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the notes.

 

If withholding tax applies to the notes, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.

 

You should read the section entitled “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement.  The preceding discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of owning and disposing of the notes.  

 

You should also consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of an investment in the notes and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

 Supplemental Plan of Distribution

CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and the lead agent for the sale of the notes, will not receive an underwriting discount for any note sold in this offering.  UBS, as agent for sales of the notes, has agreed to purchase from CGMI, and CGMI has agreed to sell to UBS, all of the notes sold in this offering for $10.00 per note.  UBS proposes to offer the notes to the public at a price of $10.00 per note.  UBS will not receive any underwriting discount for any note it sells in this offering.  Investors that purchase and hold the notes in fee-based advisory accounts will pay advisory fees to UBS based on the amount of assets held in those accounts.

 

See “Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement and “Plan of Distribution” in each of the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus for additional information.

 

 Valuation of the Notes

CGMI calculated the estimated value of the notes set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement based on proprietary pricing models.  CGMI’s proprietary pricing models generated an estimated value for the notes by estimating the value of a hypothetical package of financial instruments that would replicate the payout on the notes, which consists of a fixed-income bond (the “bond component”) and one or more derivative instruments underlying the economic terms of the notes (the “derivative component”).  CGMI calculated the estimated value of the bond component using a discount rate based on our internal funding rate.  CGMI calculated the estimated value of the derivative component based on a proprietary derivative-pricing model, which generated a theoretical price for the instruments that constitute the derivative component based on various inputs, including the factors described under “Summary Risk Factors—The value of the notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors” in this pricing supplement, but not including our or Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness.  These inputs may be market-observable or may be based on assumptions made by CGMI in its discretionary judgment.

 

During a temporary adjustment period immediately following issuance of the notes, the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the notes from investors, and the value that will be indicated for the notes on any account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates (which value CGMI may also publish through one or more financial information vendors), will reflect a temporary upward adjustment from the price or value that would otherwise be determined.  This temporary upward adjustment represents a portion of the hedging profit expected to be realized by CGMI or its affiliates over the term of the notes.  The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period.  CGMI currently expects that the temporary adjustment period will be approximately three months, but the actual length of the temporary adjustment period may be shortened due to various factors, such as the volume of secondary market purchases of the notes and other factors that cannot be predicted.  However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the notes from investors at any time.  See “Summary Risk Factors—The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.”

FAQ

What are Citigroup (C) Step Down Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to KWEB?

These notes are unsecured, unsubordinated debt of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., guaranteed by Citigroup Inc., with returns tied to the shares of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (ticker KWEB) instead of a fixed interest rate.

How does the automatic call feature work on these Citigroup KWEB notes?

The notes are automatically called if on any quarterly valuation date KWEB’s closing price is at or above the $37.74 initial underlying price, or at or above the $30.19 downside threshold on the final valuation date, triggering payment of the stated principal amount plus the applicable call return.

What is the call return rate and possible call prices for the Citigroup KWEB notes?

The notes use a fixed call return rate of 15.60% per annum. Depending on when they are called, call prices per $10 principal range from $11.56 on November 30, 2026 up to $13.12 if called on the final valuation date, November 26, 2027.

What happens at maturity if the Citigroup KWEB notes are not automatically called?

If not called, the final payment per $10 note equals $10.00 + ($10.00 × underlying return), where underlying return is based on KWEB’s final price versus the initial price. If KWEB finishes below the downside threshold on the final valuation date, investors receive less than principal and may receive zero.

What are the main risks of investing in Citigroup (C) KWEB-linked autocallable notes?

Key risks include possible loss of some or all of the initial investment, no interest payments, no entitlement to KWEB dividends, limited or no liquidity since the notes will not be listed on any exchange, and full exposure to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc.

What is the issue price and estimated value of these Citigroup KWEB notes?

The issue price is $10.00 per note, with total proceeds to the issuer of $2,892,500.00. On the pricing date, the estimated value is $9.582 per note, based on Citigroup Global Markets Inc.’s proprietary pricing models and internal funding rate.

How are the Citigroup KWEB notes expected to be treated for U.S. federal tax purposes?

Citigroup’s counsel opines that each note should be treated as a prepaid forward contract for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with a possibility that Section 1260 “constructive ownership” rules could apply. There is uncertainty in this treatment, and investors are urged to consult their own tax advisers.
