Autocallable Basket-Linked Notes due |
The notes (CUSIP: 40058AD68) do not bear interest. The amount that you will be paid on your notes is based on the performance of an equally weighted basket comprised of the common stock of Amazon.com, Inc., the common shares of American Express Company, the common stock of Bank of America Corporation, the Class A common stock of Mastercard Incorporated, the common stock of Occidental Petroleum Corporation, the common stock of The Coca-Cola Company, the common stock of The Kroger Co. and the Class A common stock of Visa Inc. Each basket stock has an initial weighting of 12.5% and an initial weighted value of 12.5. The notes will mature on the stated maturity date, unless they are automatically called on the call observation date.
The initial basket level is 100 and the closing level of the basket on the call observation date and on the determination date, as applicable, will equal the sum of the products, as calculated for each basket stock, of: (i) its closing price on the call observation date or determination date, as applicable, divided by (ii) its initial basket stock price multiplied by (iii) its initial weighted value.
Your notes will be automatically called on the call observation date if the closing level of the basket on such date is greater than or equal to the initial basket level, resulting in a payment on the call payment date for each $1,000 face amount of your notes equal to $1,077.5.
If your notes are not automatically called on the call observation date, we will determine your payment at maturity by calculating the basket return, which is the percentage increase or decrease in the closing level of the basket on the determination date (the final basket level) from the initial basket level.
Declines in one basket stock may offset increases in the other basket stocks.
You should read the accompanying preliminary prospectus supplement dated April 29, 2024, which we refer to herein as the accompanying preliminary prospectus supplement, to better understand the terms and risks of your investment, including the credit risk of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

ABOUT THE BASKET
The following table lists the basket stocks and related information, including their corresponding current Bloomberg tickers, type of security, current primary listings, initial weights in the basket and initial weighted values. Each of the basket stock issuers faces its own business risks and other competitive factors. All of those factors may affect the basket return, and, consequently, the amount payable on your notes, if any, on the call payment date or the stated maturity date. Our offering of the notes does not constitute our recommendation or the recommendation of our affiliates to invest in the basket, any basket stock or the notes. You should make your own investigation of the basket stocks and the basket stock issuers and whether to obtain exposure to the basket through an investment in the notes.
