12,850 Contingent Income Callable Securities Due August 18, 2027

Based on the Worst Performing of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF, the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF and the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust

Principal at Risk Securities

Overview

The securities offered by this pricing supplement are unsecured debt securities issued by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.  The securities offer the potential for quarterly contingent coupon payments at an annualized rate that, if all are paid, would produce a yield that is generally higher than the yield on our conventional debt securities of the same maturity.  In exchange for this higher potential yield, you must be willing to accept the risks that (i) your actual yield may be lower than the yield on our conventional debt securities of the same maturity because you may not receive one or more, or any, contingent coupon payments and (ii) your actual yield may be negative because your payment at maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities and possibly zero. These risks will depend on the performance of the worst performing of the shares of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF, the shares of the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF and the shares of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (each, the “underlying shares”), as described below. You will be subject to risks associated with each of the underlying shares and will be negatively affected by adverse movements in any one of the underlying shares regardless of the performance of the other underlying shares.  Although you will be exposed to downside risk with respect to the worst performing underlying shares, you will not participate in any appreciation of any underlying shares or receive any dividends paid on any underlying shares.

We have the right to call the securities for mandatory redemption on any potential redemption date prior to the maturity date.

Investors in the securities must be willing to accept (i) an investment that may have limited or no liquidity and (ii) the risk of not receiving any payments due under the securities if we and Citigroup Inc. default on our obligations. All payments on the securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc.

Additional Information

 

General. The terms of the securities are set forth in the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented by this pricing supplement. The accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus contain important disclosures that are not repeated in this pricing supplement. For example, certain events may occur that could affect whether you receive a contingent coupon payment on a contingent coupon payment date as well as your payment at maturity, such as market disruption events and other events affecting the underlying shares. These events and their consequences are described in the accompanying product supplement in the sections “Description of the Securities—Consequences of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Valuation Date,” “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” and “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,” and not in this pricing supplement. The accompanying underlying supplement contains important disclosures regarding the underlying shares that are not repeated in this pricing supplement. It is important that you read the accompanying product supplement, underlying supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus together with this pricing supplement in connection with your investment in the securities. Certain terms used but not defined in this pricing supplement are defined in the accompanying product supplement.

 

Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments. The initial share price and the downside threshold price applicable to each of the underlying shares are each a “Relevant Value” for purposes of the section “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. Accordingly, the initial share price and the downside threshold price applicable to each of the underlying shares are each subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of any of the events described in that section.

 

Investment Summary

 

The securities provide an opportunity for investors to earn a quarterly contingent coupon payment, which is an amount equal to $25.345 (2.5345% of the stated principal amount) per security, with respect to each quarterly valuation date on which the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on that valuation date is greater than or equal to 70% of the applicable initial share price, which we refer to as the applicable coupon barrier price.  The worst performing underlying shares on any valuation date are the underlying shares with the lowest closing price on that valuation date as a percentage of the applicable initial share price, which we refer to as the applicable share return on that valuation date.  The quarterly contingent coupon payment, if any, will be payable quarterly on the relevant contingent coupon payment date, which is the third business day after the related valuation date or, in the case of the quarterly contingent coupon payment, if any, with respect to the final valuation date, the maturity date. If the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on any valuation date is less than the applicable coupon barrier price, investors will receive no quarterly contingent coupon payment for the related quarterly period. It is possible that the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares could be below the applicable coupon barrier price on most or all of the valuation dates so that you will receive few or no quarterly contingent coupon payments. We refer to these payments as contingent because there is no guarantee that you will receive a payment on any contingent coupon payment date.  Even if the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares was at or above the applicable coupon barrier price on some quarterly valuation dates, the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares may fluctuate below the applicable coupon barrier price on others.    

 

We may call the securities, in whole and not in part, for mandatory redemption on any potential redemption date upon not less than three business days’ notice for an early redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount plus the quarterly contingent coupon payment, if any, due on that contingent coupon payment date.  Thus, the term of the securities may be limited to three months.  If we redeem the securities prior to maturity, you will not receive any additional contingent coupon payments.  Moreover, you may not be able to reinvest your funds in another investment that provides a similar yield with a similar level of risk.  If we redeem the securities prior to maturity, it is likely to be at a time when the underlying shares are performing in a manner that would otherwise have been favorable to you.  On the other hand, we will be less likely to redeem the securities when the underlying shares are performing unfavorably from your perspective, including when the closing price of any of the underlying shares is below its respective coupon barrier price and/or when the final share price of any of the underlying shares is expected to be below its respective downside threshold price, such that you will receive no quarterly contingent coupon payments and/or that you will suffer a significant loss on your initial investment in the securities at maturity.  Thus, if we do not redeem the securities prior to maturity, it is more likely that you will receive few or no quarterly contingent coupon payments and suffer a significant loss at maturity.

Based on the Worst Performing of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF, the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF and the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust

Principal at Risk Securities

If the securities have not previously been redeemed by us and the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares is greater than or equal to its downside threshold price, you will be repaid the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity.  However, if the securities have not previously been redeemed by us and the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares is less than its downside threshold price, investors will be exposed to the decline in the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares, as compared to its initial share price, on a 1-to-1 basis. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be (i) the stated principal amount plus (ii) (a) the stated principal amount times (b) the share return of the worst performing underlying shares, which means that the payment at maturity will be less than 60% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero.

 

Investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire principal and also the risk of receiving few or no quarterly contingent coupon payments over the term of the securities. The stated payments on the securities are based solely on the performance of the worst performing underlying shares on each valuation date.  As a result, investors will be negatively affected by adverse movements in any one of the underlying shares, regardless of the performance of the others. In addition, investors will not participate in any appreciation of any of the underlying shares.

 

Key Investment Rationale

 

The securities offer investors an opportunity to earn a quarterly contingent coupon payment equal to 2.5345% of the stated principal amount with respect to each valuation date on which the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on that valuation date is greater than or equal to 70% of the applicable initial share price, which we refer to as the applicable coupon barrier price.  The securities may be redeemed by us prior to maturity for the stated principal amount per security plus the applicable quarterly contingent coupon payment, if any, and the payment at maturity will vary depending on the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date, as follows:

 

Scenario 1

On any potential redemption date (beginning approximately three months after the issue date), we exercise our right to call the securities.

 

   The securities will be redeemed for (i) the stated principal amount plus (ii) the quarterly contingent coupon payment with respect to the related potential redemption date, if any.

 

   Investors will not participate in any appreciation of any of the underlying shares from their applicable initial share prices.

Scenario 2

The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is greater than or equal to the applicable downside threshold price.

 

   You will be repaid the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity plus the quarterly contingent coupon payment due at maturity, if any.

 

   Investors will not participate in any appreciation of any of the underlying shares from their applicable initial share prices.

Scenario 3

The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is less than the applicable downside threshold price.

 

   The payment due at maturity will be (i) the stated principal amount plus (ii) (a) the stated principal amount times (b) the share return of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date.

 

   Investors will lose a significant portion, and may lose all, of their principal in this scenario.

Hypothetical Examples

 

The examples below illustrate how to determine whether a contingent coupon will be paid with respect to a quarterly valuation date and how to calculate the payment at maturity on the securities if we do not redeem the securities prior to maturity.  You should understand that the term of the securities, and your opportunity to receive the contingent coupon payments on the securities, may be limited to as short as three months if we elect to redeem the securities prior to the maturity date, which is not reflected in the examples below.  For ease of analysis, figures in the examples below may have been rounded.

 

The examples below are based on the following hypothetical values and do not reflect the actual initial share prices of any of the underlying shares or their applicable coupon barrier prices and downside threshold prices.  For the actual initial share price, coupon barrier price and downside threshold price of each of the underlying shares, see 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 securities work. However, you should understand that the actual payment at maturity on the securities will be calculated based on the actual initial share price, coupon barrier price and downside threshold price of each of the underlying shares, and not the hypothetical values indicated below. For ease of analysis, figures below have been rounded:

 

Quarterly contingent coupon payment: $25.345 (2.5345% of the stated principal amount) per security
Hypothetical initial share price: For each of the underlying shares, $100.00
Hypothetical coupon barrier price: For each of the underlying shares, $70.00, which, with respect to each of the underlying shares, is 70% of the applicable hypothetical initial share price
Hypothetical downside threshold price: For each of the underlying shares, $60.00, which, with respect to each of the underlying shares, is 60% of the applicable hypothetical initial share price

 

How to determine whether a contingent coupon is payable with respect to a quarterly valuation date:

 

  Hypothetical closing price of the shares of iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF Hypothetical closing price of the shares of iShares® Russell 2000 ETF Hypothetical closing price of the shares of SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust Hypothetical contingent coupon payment per security
Example 1

$150.00

(share return = 50%)

$110.00

(share return = 10%)

$105.00 

(share return = 5%)

$25.345
Example 2

$45.00

(share return = -55%)

$120.00

(share return = 20%) 

$130.00 

(share return = 30%)

Example 3

$50.00

(share return = -50%)

$60.00

(share return = -40%) 

$10.00

(share return = -90%)

$0.00

 

Example 1: On the hypothetical valuation date, the shares of SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust have the lowest share return and, therefore, are the worst performing underlying shares.  In this scenario, the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares is greater than the applicable coupon barrier price and, as a result, investors in the securities would receive the contingent coupon payment of $25.345 per security on the related contingent coupon payment date.  

 

Example 2: On the hypothetical valuation date, the shares of iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF have the lowest share return and, therefore, are the worst performing underlying shares.  In this scenario, the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares is less than the applicable coupon barrier price and, as a result, investors in the securities would not receive any payment on the related contingent coupon payment date.  

 

Investors in the securities will not receive a contingent coupon on the contingent coupon payment date following a valuation date if the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on that valuation date is less than the applicable coupon barrier price. Whether a contingent coupon is paid following a valuation date depends solely on the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on that valuation date.

 

Example 3: On the hypothetical valuation date, the shares of SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust have the lowest share return and, therefore, are the worst performing underlying shares.  In this scenario, the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares is less than the applicable coupon barrier price and, as a result, investors in the securities would not receive any payment on the related contingent coupon payment date.  

 

How to determine the payment at maturity on the securities if we do not elect to redeem the securities prior to maturity:

Principal at Risk Securities

Example 4: In this example, the shares of iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF are the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date.  In this scenario, the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is greater than the applicable downside threshold price.  Accordingly, at maturity, you would receive the stated principal amount of the securities plus the contingent coupon payment of $25.345 per security, but you would not participate in the appreciation of any of the underlying shares even though all of the underlying shares have appreciated from their respective initial share prices.

 

Example 5: In this example, the shares of iShares® Russell 2000 ETF are the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date.  In this scenario, the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is less than the applicable downside threshold price.  Accordingly, at maturity, you would receive a payment per security calculated as follows:

 

Payment at maturity = $1,000 + ($1,000 × share return of the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF on the final valuation date)

= $1,000 + ($1,000 × -60%)

= $1,000 + -$600

= $400

 

In this scenario, you would receive significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity.  You would incur a loss based on the performance of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date, even though the final share prices of the other underlying shares are greater than their respective downside threshold prices.

 

Example 6: In this example, the shares of SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust are the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date and their final share price is less than the applicable downside threshold price.  Accordingly, at maturity, you would receive a payment per security calculated as follows:

 

Payment at maturity = $1,000 + ($1,000 × share return of the shares of SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust on the final valuation date)

 

= $1,000 + ($1,000 × -80%)

= $1,000 + -$800

= $200

 

In this scenario, because the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is less than the applicable downside threshold price, you would lose a significant portion of your investment in the securities, even though the final share prices of the other underlying shares are greater than their respective downside threshold prices.

Summary Risk Factors

 

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

 

The following is a summary of certain key risk factors for investors in the securities.  You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating to an investment in the securities 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 a significant portion or all of your investment. Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not provide for the repayment of the stated principal amount at maturity in all circumstances.  If we do not redeem the securities prior to maturity and the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is less than the applicable downside threshold price, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment, based on a loss of 1% of the stated principal amount of the securities for every 1% by which the final share price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date is less than the applicable initial share price, regardless of the performance of the other underlying shares. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities, and you may lose up to all of your investment. If the final share price of any of the underlying shares is less than the applicable downside threshold price, you will be fully exposed to any depreciation of the worst performing underlying shares from their initial share price to their final share price.

 

You will not receive any contingent coupon payment for any quarter in which the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on the related valuation date is less than the applicable coupon barrier price. A contingent coupon payment will be made on a contingent coupon payment date if and only if the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on the related valuation date is greater than or equal to the applicable coupon barrier price. If the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on any quarterly valuation date is less than the applicable coupon barrier price, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date, and if the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares is below the applicable coupon barrier price on each valuation date, you will not receive any contingent coupon payments over the term of the securities. If the closing price of any of the underlying shares on any quarterly valuation date is less than the applicable coupon barrier price, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date.  

 

The securities are subject to the risks of all of the underlying shares and will be negatively affected if any one of the underlying shares performs poorly, even if the other underlying shares perform well. You are subject to risks associated with all of the underlying shares. If any one of the underlying shares performs poorly, you will be negatively affected, even if the other underlying shares perform well. The securities are not linked to a basket composed of the underlying shares, where the better performance of one or two could ameliorate the poor performance of the others. Instead, you are subject to the full risks of whichever of the underlying shares are the worst performing underlying shares on each valuation date.

 

You will not benefit in any way from the performance of the better performing underlying shares. The return on the securities depends solely on the performance of the worst performing underlying shares on each valuation date, and you will not benefit in any way from the performance of the better performing underlying shares. The securities may underperform a similar investment in all of the underlying shares or a similar alternative investment linked to a basket composed of the underlying shares, since in either such case the performance of the better performing underlying shares would be blended with the performance of the worst performing underlying shares, resulting in a better return than the return of the worst performing underlying shares.

 

You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship among the underlying shares. It is preferable from your perspective for the underlying shares to be correlated with each other, in the sense that they tend to increase or decrease at similar times and by similar magnitudes. By investing in the securities, you assume the risk that the underlying shares will not exhibit this relationship. The less correlated the underlying shares, the more likely it is that at least one of the underlying shares will perform poorly over the term of the securities. All that is necessary for the securities to perform poorly is for one of the underlying shares to perform poorly; the performance of any underlying shares that are not the worst performing underlying shares is not relevant to your return on the securities. It is impossible to predict what the relationship among the underlying shares will be over the term of the securities.

 

Higher contingent coupon rates are associated with greater risk. The securities offer contingent coupon payments at an annualized rate that, if all are paid, would produce a yield that is generally higher than the yield on our conventional debt securities of the same maturity. This higher potential yield is associated with greater levels of expected risk as of the pricing date for the securities, including the risk that you may not receive a contingent coupon payment on one or more, or any, contingent coupon payment dates and the risk that the amount you receive at maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities and may be zero. The volatility of and the correlation among the underlying shares are important factors affecting these risks. Greater expected volatility of, and lower expected correlation among, the underlying shares as of the pricing date may result in a higher contingent coupon rate, but would also represent a greater expected likelihood as of the pricing date that (i) the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on one or more valuation dates will be less than the applicable coupon barrier price, such that you will not receive one or more, or any, contingent coupon payments during the term of the securities and (ii) the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares

on the final valuation date will be less than the applicable downside threshold price, such that you will suffer a substantial loss of principal at maturity.

 

You may not be adequately compensated for assuming the downside risk of the worst performing underlying shares. The potential contingent coupon payments on the securities are the compensation you receive for assuming the downside risk of the worst performing underlying shares, as well as all the other risks of the securities. That compensation is effectively “at risk” and may, therefore, be less than you currently anticipate. First, the actual yield you realize on the securities could be lower than you anticipate because the coupon is “contingent” and you may not receive a contingent coupon payment on one or more, or any, of the contingent coupon payment dates. Second, the contingent coupon payments are the compensation you receive not only for the downside risk of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date, but also for all of the other risks of the securities, including the risk that the securities may be redeemed by us beginning approximately three months after the issue date, interest rate risk and our and/or Citigroup Inc.’s credit risk. If those other risks increase or are otherwise greater than you currently anticipate, the contingent coupon payments may turn out to be inadequate to compensate you for all the risks of the securities, including the downside risk of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date.

 

We may redeem the securities at our option, which will limit your ability to receive the contingent coupon payments. We may redeem the securities on any potential redemption date upon not less than three business days’ notice. In the event that we redeem the securities, you will receive the stated principal amount of your securities and the related contingent coupon payment, if any. Thus, the term of the securities may be limited to as short as approximately three months. If we redeem the securities prior to maturity, you will not receive any additional contingent coupon payments. Moreover, you may not be able to reinvest your funds in another investment that provides a similar yield with a similar level of risk. If we redeem the securities prior to maturity, it is likely to be at a time when the underlying shares are performing in a manner that would otherwise have been favorable to you. By contrast, if the underlying shares are performing unfavorably from your perspective, we are less likely to redeem the securities. If we redeem the securities, we will do so at a time that is advantageous to us and without regard to your interests.

 

The securities offer downside exposure to the worst performing underlying shares, but no upside exposure to the underlying shares. You will not participate in any appreciation in the price of any of the underlying shares over the term of the securities. Consequently, your return on the securities will be limited to the contingent coupon payments you receive, if any, and may be significantly less than the return on the underlying shares over the term of the securities. In addition, you will not receive any dividends or other distributions or have any other rights with respect to the underlying shares over the term of the securities.

 

The performance of the securities will depend on the closing prices of the underlying shares solely on the relevant valuation dates, which makes the securities particularly sensitive to the volatility of the underlying shares. Whether the contingent coupon will be paid for any given quarter will depend on the closing prices of the underlying shares solely on the applicable quarterly valuation dates, regardless of the closing prices of the underlying shares on other days during the term of the securities. If the securities are not redeemed by us prior to maturity, what you receive at maturity will depend solely on the closing price of the worst performing underlying shares on the final valuation date, and not on any other day during the term of the securities. Because the performance of the securities depends on the closing prices of the underlying shares on a limited number of dates, the securities will be particularly sensitive to volatility in the closing prices of the underlying shares. You should understand that all of the underlying shares have historically been highly volatile.

 

The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If we default on our obligations under the securities and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive anything owed to you under the securities.

 

The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity. The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. CGMI currently intends to make a secondary market in relation to the securities and to provide an indicative bid price for the securities on a daily basis. Any indicative bid price for the securities 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 securities 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 securities because it is likely that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your securities prior to maturity. Accordingly, an investor must be prepared to hold the securities until maturity.

 

The estimated value of the securities on the pricing 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 securities that are included in the issue price. These costs include (i) the selling concessions and structuring fees paid in connection with the offering of the securities, (ii) hedging and other costs incurred by us and our affiliates in connection with the offering of the securities and (iii) 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 securities. These costs adversely affect the economic terms of the securities because, if they were lower, the economic terms of the securities would be more favorable to you. The economic terms of the securities are also likely to be adversely affected by the use of our internal funding rate, rather than our secondary market rate, to price the securities. See “The estimated value of the securities would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate” below.

 

The estimated value of the securities 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 and correlation among the underlying shares,

dividend yields on the underlying shares and the securities held by the underlying share issuers 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 securities. Moreover, the estimated value of the securities set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement may differ from the value that we or our affiliates may determine for the securities for other purposes, including for accounting purposes. You should not invest in the securities because of the estimated value of the securities. Instead, you should be willing to hold the securities to maturity irrespective of the initial estimated value.

 

The estimated value of the securities would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate. The estimated value of the securities 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 securities. 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 securities for purposes of any purchases of the securities 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 securities, which are generally higher than the costs associated with conventional debt securities, and our liquidity needs and preferences. Our internal funding rate is not the same as the coupon that is payable on the securities.

 

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 securities, 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 securities prior to maturity.

 

The estimated value of the securities is not an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing to buy the securities from you in the secondary market. Any such secondary market price will fluctuate over the term of the securities 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 securities 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 securities than if our internal funding rate were used. In addition, any secondary market price for the securities will be reduced by a bid-ask spread, which may vary depending on the aggregate stated principal amount of the securities 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 securities will be less than the issue price.

 

The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors. The value of your securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on the price and volatility of the underlying shares and a number of other factors, including price and volatility of the securities held by the underlying share issuers, the correlation among the underlying shares, dividend yields on the underlying shares and the securities held by the underlying share issuers, interest rates generally, currency exchange rates, the time remaining to maturity and our and/or Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness, as reflected in our secondary market rate. Changes in the prices of the underlying shares may not result in a comparable change in the value of your securities. You should understand that the value of your securities at any time prior to maturity may be significantly less than the issue price.

 

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 steadily decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period. See “Valuation of the Securities” in this pricing supplement.

 

The shares of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF are 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 price of the shares of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF. Because the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF includes stocks that trade outside the United States and the closing price of the shares of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF is based on the U.S. dollar value of those stocks, the shares of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF is subject to currency exchange rate risk with respect to each of the currencies 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 currencies in which the stocks included in the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF trade, the closing price of the shares of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF will be adversely affected for that reason alone.

The shares of the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF are subject to risks associated with small capitalization stocks. The stocks that constitute the index underlying the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF are issued by companies with relatively small market capitalization.  The stock prices of smaller companies may be more volatile than stock prices of large capitalization companies.  These companies tend to be less well-established than large market capitalization companies.  Small capitalization companies may be less able to withstand adverse economic, market, trade and competitive conditions relative to larger companies.  Small capitalization companies are less likely to pay dividends on their stocks, and the presence of a dividend payment could be a factor that limits downward stock price pressure under adverse market conditions.

 

Our offering of the securities does not constitute a recommendation of any of the underlying shares. The fact that we are offering the securities does not mean that we believe that investing in an instrument linked to the underlying shares 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 shares or the securities held by the underlying share issuers or in instruments related to the underlying shares or such securities and may publish research or express opinions, that in each case are inconsistent with an investment linked to the underlying shares. These and other activities of our affiliates may affect the prices of the underlying shares in a way that has a negative impact on your interests as a holder of the securities.

 

Governmental regulatory actions, such as sanctions, could adversely affect your investment in the securities. Governmental regulatory actions, including, without limitation, sanctions-related actions by the U.S. or a foreign government, could prohibit or otherwise restrict persons from holding the securities or underlying shares, or engaging in transactions in them, and any such action could adversely affect the value of underlying shares. These regulatory actions could result in restrictions on the securities and could result in the loss of a significant portion or all of your initial investment in the securities, including if you are forced to divest the securities due to the government mandates, especially if such divestment must be made at a time when the value of the securities has declined.

 

The price and performance of any underlying share issuer may not completely track the performance of its underlying index or its net asset value per share.  The underlying share issuers do not fully replicate the underlying indices that they seek to track (each, the “ETF underlying index”) and may hold securities different from those included in its ETF underlying index. In addition, the performance of any underlying share issuer reflect additional transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of its ETF underlying index. All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the performance of any underlying share issuer and its ETF underlying index. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the equity securities constituting any underlying share issuer’s ETF underlying index or held by any underlying share issuer (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the performance of any underlying share issuer and its ETF underlying index. Finally, because any of the underlying shares are traded on NYSE Arca, Inc. and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of any underlying share issuer may differ from its net asset value per share.

 

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

 

The prices of the underlying shares may be adversely affected by our or our affiliates’ hedging and other trading activities. We have hedged our obligations under the securities through CGMI or other of our affiliates, who have taken positions directly in the underlying shares or the securities held by the underlying share issuers and other financial instruments related to the underlying shares and may adjust such positions during the term of the securities. Our affiliates also trade the underlying shares or the securities held by the underlying share issuers and other financial instruments related to the underlying shares or such securities on a regular basis (taking long or short positions or both), for their accounts, for other accounts under their management or to facilitate transactions on behalf of customers. These activities could affect the prices of the underlying shares in a way that negatively affects the value of the securities. They could also result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the securities declines.

 

We and our affiliates may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of our affiliates’ business activities. Our affiliates may currently or from time to time engage in business with the underlying share issuers or the issuers of the securities held by the underlying share issuers, including extending loans to, making equity investments in or providing advisory services to those issuers. In the course of this business, we or our affiliates may acquire non-public information about the underlying share issuers, which we will not disclose to you. Moreover, if any of our 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.

 

Even if any underlying share issuer pays a dividend that it identifies as special or extraordinary, no adjustment will be required under the securities for that dividend unless it meets the criteria specified in the accompanying product supplement. In general, an adjustment will not be made under the terms of the securities for any cash dividend paid on any of the underlying shares unless the amount of the dividend per underlying share, together with any other dividends paid in the same fiscal quarter, exceeds the dividend paid per underlying share in the most recent fiscal quarter by an amount equal to at least 10% of the closing price of the applicable underlying shares on the date of declaration of the dividend. Any dividend will reduce the closing price of the applicable underlying shares by the amount of the dividend per underlying share. If the applicable underlying share issuer pays any dividend for which an adjustment is not made under the terms of the securities, holders of the securities may be adversely affected.

The securities will not be adjusted for all events that could affect the price of any of the underlying shares. For example, we will not make any adjustment for ordinary dividends or extraordinary dividends that do not meet the criteria described above.  Moreover, the adjustments we do make may not fully offset the dilutive or adverse effect of the particular event.  Investors in the securities may be adversely affected by such an event in a circumstance in which a direct holder of any of the underlying shares would not.

 

The securities may become linked to shares of an issuer other than one of the original underlying share issuers upon the occurrence of a reorganization event or upon the delisting of any of the underlying shares. For example, if any underlying share issuer enters into a merger agreement that provides for holders of the applicable underlying shares to receive stock of another entity, the stock of such other entity will become the applicable underlying shares for all purposes of the securities upon consummation of the merger.  Additionally, if the applicable underlying shares are delisted or any underlying share issuer is otherwise terminated, the calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, select shares of another issuer to be the applicable underlying shares.  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.

 

The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the securities.  If certain events occur, such as market disruption events, events with respect to any of the underlying share issuers that may require a dilution adjustment or the delisting of the applicable underlying shares, CGMI, as calculation agent, will be required to make discretionary judgments that could significantly affect your return on the securities.  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 securities.

 

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

Supplemental Plan of Distribution

 

CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and the underwriter of the sale of the securities, is acting as principal and will receive an underwriting fee of $20 for each $1,000 security sold in this offering. From this underwriting fee, CGMI will pay selected dealers not affiliated with CGMI, including Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, and their financial advisors collectively a fixed selling concession of $16.923 for each $1,000 security they sell.  In addition, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will receive a structuring fee of $3.077 for each security they sell.  For the avoidance of doubt, the fees and selling concessions described in this pricing supplement will not be rebated if the securities are redeemed prior to maturity.

 

The costs included in the original issue price of the securities will include a fee paid by CGMI to LFT Securities, LLC, an entity in which an affiliate of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management has an ownership interest, for providing certain electronic platform services with respect to this offering.

 

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 Securities

 

CGMI calculated the estimated value of the securities 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 securities by estimating the value of a hypothetical package of financial instruments that would replicate the payout on the securities, which consists of a fixed-income bond (the “bond component”) and one or more derivative instruments underlying the economic terms of the securities (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 securities 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.

 

For a period of approximately four months following issuance of the securities, the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the securities from investors, and the value that will be indicated for the securities on any brokerage 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 securities. The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero on a straight-line basis over the four-month temporary adjustment period. However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the securities from investors at any time.  See “Summary Risk Factors—The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.”
