Selected Risk Considerations
Additional Information
You may lose a significant portion 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 the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, your payment at maturity will depend on the final underlying value of the worst performer on the final valuation date. If the final underlying value of the worst performer on the final valuation date is less than its final buffer value, which means that the worst performer on the final valuation date has depreciated from its initial underlying value by more than the buffer percentage, you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which that depreciation exceeds the buffer percentage.
Your potential return on the securities is limited.
The securities do not pay interest.
The securities are subject to heightened risk because they have multiple underlyings.
The return on the securities depends solely on the performance of the worst performer. As a result, the securities are subject to the risks of each of the underlyings and will be negatively affected if any one underlying performs poorly.
You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship between the underlyings. The less correlated the underlyings, the more likely it is that any one of the underlyings will perform poorly over the term of the securities. All that is necessary for the securities to perform poorly is for one of the underlyings to perform poorly.
You will not receive dividends or have any other rights with respect to the underlyings.
The securities may be automatically redeemed prior to maturity.
The securities offer downside exposure, but no upside exposure, to the underlyings.
The securities are particularly sensitive to the volatility of the closing values of the underlyings on or near the valuation dates.
The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. defaults on its 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 estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be less than the issue price. For more information about the estimated value of the securities, see the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.
The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors.
The Russell 2000® Index is subject to risks associated with small capitalization stocks.
The issuer and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest with you.
The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear.
