Hypothetical Payout Profile

 

***assumes a call premium equal to the lowest call premium that may be determined on the pricing date

If the closing value of the underlying on the final valuation date is less than the buffer value, you may receive significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity, and you will not receive the call premium applicable to the final valuation date.

You will not participate in any appreciation in the value of the underlying over the term of the securities. Consequently, your return on the securities will be limited to the call premium you receive, if any, and may be significantly less than the return on the underlying over the term of the securities.

 

On the date of the related preliminary pricing supplement, Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. expects that the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be at least $900.00 per security, which will be less than the public offering price. The estimated value of the securities is based on CGMI’s proprietary pricing models and Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.’s internal funding rate. It is not an indication of actual profit to CGMI or other of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.’s affiliates, nor is it an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing to buy the securities from you at any time after issuance. See “Valuation of the Securities” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.
