New Issue: UBS prices $500,000 buffer autocallable contingent yield notes on ARK ETFs

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., Aug. 10 – UBS AG London Branch priced $500,000 of buffer autocallable contingent yield notes due May 21, 2026 linked to the lesser performing of the ARK Genomic Revolution ETF and the ARK Innovation ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 12% if each ETF closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the review date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus coupon if each ETF closes at or above its initial level on any monthly review date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either ETF finishes below its 80% buffer level, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the worse performing ETF beyond 20%.

UBS Securities LLC and UBS Investment Bank are the agents.
