Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. (guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.) is marketing $1,000-denominated Market-Linked Securities linked to NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) stock, maturing 21 July 2026.

The notes combine three key features:

• Contingent coupon with memory: paid quarterly at a rate to be set on the pricing date, but not lower than 23.25% p.a. A coupon is paid only when NVDA鈥檚 closing price on the relevant calculation day is at least 80 % of the starting value (鈥渃oupon threshold鈥�). Missed coupons are caught up on a future date if the threshold is later satisfied.
• Automatic early redemption: on any quarterly observation from Oct-2025 through Apr-2026, the notes are redeemed at par plus any due coupons if NVDA closes at or above the starting value.
• Contingent principal protection: if not called, investors receive par at maturity only when NVDA is at or above 80 % of the starting value (鈥渄ownside threshold鈥�). Otherwise, repayment equals par multiplied by NVDA鈥檚 performance factor, exposing investors to a 1-for-1 loss below the 80 % barrier, down to zero.

Economic terms

• Public offering price: $1,000 per security; estimated value on the pricing date: 鈮� $931 (鈮� 6.9 % underwriting premium and hedging costs).
• Underwriting discount/commission: up to 1.275 % ($12.75) shared between CGMI, Wells Fargo Securities and selected dealers.
• Credit exposure: unsecured senior notes of CGMHI; full and unconditional guarantee from Citigroup Inc.
• No stock dividends, voting rights or upside participation beyond coupons.
• Not listed; secondary liquidity, if any, expected to be limited and dealer-driven.

Key risk highlights

• Principal loss up to 100 % if NVDA ends below the 80 % downside threshold.
• Coupon non-payment risk whenever NVDA is below threshold on an observation date; investors could receive no income for the entire term.
• Issuer and guarantor credit risk; noteholders rank pari-passu with Citi鈥檚 senior unsecured debt.
• Valuation gap: fair value expected to be ~$931, meaning investors pay a premium for distribution and structuring costs.
• No exchange listing; resale likely at a discount including bid-ask spread and unwind charges.
• Tax treatment uncertain; Citi intends to treat the notes as prepaid forward contracts with ordinary income on coupons. Non-U.S. holders may face 30 % withholding.

Timeline

• Pricing date: 16 Jul 2025
• Issue date: 21 Jul 2025
• Potential autocall / calculation days: 16 Oct 2025, 16 Jan 2026, 16 Apr 2026, 16 Jul 2026 (final)
• Maturity: 21 Jul 2026

These short-dated, high-coupon structured notes suit investors with a constructive yet range-bound view on NVDA, who are willing to assume significant equity, liquidity and credit risk in exchange for an above-market contingent yield.

Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Citigroup Inc., is offering Autocallable Securities Linked to the Worst Performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Russell 2000 and S&P 500 with a scheduled maturity of 30 July 2030 (unless automatically redeemed earlier). Each security has a stated principal amount of $1,000 and will be issued on 30 July 2025, priced on 23 July 2025.

Key structural features

• Autocall mechanism: On nine semi-annual valuation dates beginning 28 July 2026, the note will be automatically redeemed if the worst performing underlying is 鈮� 85 % of its initial value. Upon redemption, investors receive $1,000 plus a preset premium that starts at 8.85 % and steps up to 44.25 % by the final valuation date.
• Payment at maturity (if not autocalled):
  鈥� Worst performer 鈮� 85 % 鈫� principal + 44.25 % premium.
  鈥� Worst performer < 85 % but 鈮� 75 % 鈫� principal only.
  鈥� Worst performer < 75 % 鈫� principal is reduced 1-for-1 with the negative return, down to zero.
• No periodic coupons and no dividends from the indices.
• Credit risk: unsecured senior obligations of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.
• Estimated value: expected to be 鈮� $934.00 (鈮�6.6 % below issue price) reflecting selling, structuring and hedging costs; securities will not be listed on any exchange.

Risk highlights (excerpt of 30-plus factors)

• Potential loss of up to 100 % of principal if the worst performing index falls > 25 % and the note is not autocalled.
• Return is capped at fixed premiums; no participation in index upside beyond those amounts.
• Multiple underlyings: performance driven solely by the lowest-returning index; lack of correlation increases downside risk.
• Limited liquidity: no listing; secondary market, if any, only through CGMI at an indeterminate price.
• Complex U.S. tax treatment; substantial uncertainty and potential Section 871(m) withholding for non-U.S. holders after 2026.

Indicative economics

• First potential call (28 Jul 2026) pays $1,088.50 (8.85 % premium).
• Final premium (23 Jul 2030) is $442.50 (44.25 %) if call barrier met at maturity.
• Worst-case maturity repayment illustrated at $300 (-70 % index return).

The product suits investors seeking contingent income at defined barriers who can tolerate equity index downside, limited upside, complex tax treatment and credit/market liquidity risks.
