New Issue: RBC prices $51,600 put spread warrants linked to S&P 500
By Sarah Lizee
Olympia, Wash., June 12 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $51,600 of put spread warrants expiring March 31, 2021 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The initial investment is $51.60 per warrant, or 5.16% of the $1,000 notional amount.
The warrants will be automatically exercised on the expiration date if the index’s final level is less than the strike level, 98% of the initial index level. The cash settlement amount will be the notional amount multiplied by the index change up to $180 per warrant. The index change is the quotient of (a) the strike level minus the final index level divided by (b) the initial index level.
If the final index level is greater than or equal to the strike level, the warrants will not be exercised and will expire worthless.
RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the underwriter. JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are the placement agents.
