KEY TERMS

Issuer: Royal Bank of Canada
Issuer Credit Ratings: Moody's: Aa1; S&P: AA-; DBRS: AA
Currency: CAD
Minimum Investment: 50 Securities or $5,000.
Term: Approximately 7.0 years
Principal at Risk: The Securities are not principal protected.
Underlying Index: The return on the Securities is linked to the performance of the Solactive United States Big Banks Hedged to CAD Index 3.25% AR (the "Underlying Index"). The Underlying Index is an adjusted return index that aims to track the gross total return performance of the Solactive United States Big Banks Hedged to CAD Index TR (the "Target Index"), subject to a reduction of a synthetic dividend of 3.25% per annum (the "Adjusted Return Factor"). For the avoidance of doubt, the return on the Securities is linked to the Underlying Index and is not linked to the Target Index. The Closing Level on March 13, 2025 was 1,656.06. The Target Index is calculated in CAD and corresponds to the CAD-hedged version of the Solactive United States Big Banks Index TR (the "U.S. Index"). For the calculation of the level of the U.S. Index, any dividends or other distributions paid on the constituent securities of the U.S. Index are assumed to be reinvested across all of the constituent securities of the U.S. Index. As of March 13, 2025, the annual dividend yield on the U.S. Index was 2.388%, representing an aggregate dividend yield of approximately 17.962%, compounded annually over the term of the Securities, on the assumption that the dividend yield remains constant.
Issue Date: March 27, 2025.
Initial Index Level: The Closing Level as published by the Index Sponsor on the Initial Valuation Date.
Initial Valuation Date: March 13, 2025.

Protection Barrier Level: 70.00% of the Initial Index Level.
Coupon Barrier Level: 65.00% of the Initial Index Level.
Final Index Level: The Closing Level as published by the Index Sponsor on the Final Valuation Date.
Final Valuation Date: March 15, 2032.
Closing Level: The official closing level of the Underlying Index as announced by the Index Sponsor for the relevant date, as determined by the Calculation Agent.
Maturity Date: March 29, 2032.
Observation Dates: The dates set out below under the heading “Observation Dates”, provided that if any Observation Date is not an Exchange Day, such Observation Date will be the next following day that is an Exchange Day, subject to the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event.
Interest Payment Dates: The dates set out below under the heading “Interest Payment Dates”, subject to the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event, and provided that (i) the Securities are not redeemed by the Bank as described below, and (ii) if any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the first following day that is a Business Day. For greater certainty, the final Interest Payment, if any, will be made on the earlier of the Autocall Redemption Date, if any, and the Maturity Date.
Interest Payments: Interest payments, if any, on the Securities will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date at a fixed interest rate of 0.8350% for each monthly period ending on an Interest Payment Date (an “Interest Period”) in which a Digital Payout Event occurs.
If a Digital Payout Event does not occur on an Observation Date, no interest will be payable for the relevant Interest Period.
Digital Payout Event: If the Closing Level is greater than or equal to the Coupon Barrier Level on the relevant Observation Date, a Digital Payout Event will occur.
Autocall Redemption Event: If the Closing Level on an Observation Date immediately preceding an Autocall Redemption Date is greater than or equal to 110.00% of the Initial Index Level (the “Autocall Redemption Level”), an Autocall Redemption Event will occur.
Following the occurrence of an Autocall Redemption Event, the Securities will be redeemed for an amount equal to the Principal Amount thereof (the “Autocall Redemption Amount”) on the applicable Autocall Redemption Date. In addition to the Autocall Redemption Amount, an Interest Payment will be paid on the Autocall Redemption Date.
Autocall Redemption Dates: The dates set out below under the heading “Autocall Redemption Dates”, subject to the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event and provided that if any Autocall Redemption Date is not a Business Day, such Autocall Redemption Date will be the first following day that is a Business Day.
Payment at Maturity: If the Securities have not been previously redeemed, the amount payable on the Maturity Date (the “Final Redemption Amount”) for each Security will be:
(a) if the Final Index Level is greater than or equal to the Protection Barrier Level, $100.00; or
(b) if the Final Index Level is less than the Protection Barrier Level, an amount equal to the Index Return, but in any event not less than $1.00.
Index Return: $100.00 × (X_{t} / X_{i}),
where:
“X_{t}” means the Final Index Level, and
“X_{i}” means the Initial Index Level.
Secondary Market: Fundserv, RBC12623
Generally, to be effective on a Business Day, a redemption request will need to be initiated by 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on that Business Day (or such other time as may be established by Fundserv). Any request received after such time will be deemed to be a request sent and received on the next following Business Day.
Initial Estimated Value: The initial estimated value of the Securities on or about the date of the Pricing Supplement was $97.86 per Security, which is less than the price to the public and is not an indication of the actual profit to the Bank or its affiliates. The actual value of the Securities at any time will reflect many factors and may be less than this amount. The initial estimated value of the Securities is an estimate only and does not represent a minimum price at which the Bank, RBC DS or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase the Securities in any secondary market. We describe our determination of the initial estimated value in more detail in the Pricing Supplement.

SAMPLE CALCULATIONS

The following examples show how the return on the Securities would be calculated under different scenarios. These examples are included for illustration purposes only. The performance of the Underlying Index used in the examples is not an estimate or forecast of the performance of the Underlying Index or the Securities. The actual performance of the Underlying Index and the Securities will be different from these examples and the differences may be material. All examples below assume that a holder of the Securities has purchased Securities with an aggregate Principal Amount of $100.00 and that no Extraordinary Event has occurred. For convenience, each vertical line in the charts below represents both a hypothetical Observation Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Where applicable, dollar amounts shown below are rounded to the nearest whole cent for ease of reading, but the amount(s) payable to an investor per Security may reflect more decimal places.

Example #1 — Loss Scenario with Payment on the Maturity Date at Less Than the Principal Amount

img-0.jpeg

  • Indicates Observation Dates on which the Coupon Barrier Level is breached; therefore no Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
  • Indicates Observation Dates on which there is a Digital Payout Event; therefore an Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
  • Solactive United States Big Banks Hedged to CAD Index 3.25% AR

In this scenario, the Closing Level is below the Autocall Redemption Level on all Observation Dates, so the Securities would not be redeemed before the Maturity Date. The Closing Level is at or above the Coupon Barrier Level on 41 of the 84 Observation Dates. On the Final Valuation Date, the Final Index Level is below the Protection Barrier Level.

(i) Interest Payments

Digital Payout Events occur on 41 of the 84 Observation Dates. Therefore, an Interest Payment would be payable for 41 Interest Periods on the applicable Interest Payment Date, for total Interest Payments of:

$$
\text{Principal Amount of Securities} \times 0.8350\% \text{ per Interest Period} \times 41 \text{ Interest Periods}
$$
$$
\$100.00 \times 0.8350\% \times 41 = \$34.24
$$

(ii) Final Redemption Amount

In this example, the Initial Index Level $(X_i)$ is 1,656.06 and the Final Index Level $(X_f)$ is 695.55. Therefore, the Final Redemption Amount is as follows:

$$
\$100.00 \times (X_f / X_i)
$$
$$
\$100.00 \times (695.55 / 1,656.06) = \$42.00
$$

Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date are:

(a) Total Interest Payments: $34.24
(b) Final Redemption Amount: $42.00
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $76.24

The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is -3.80%.


Example #2 — Gain Scenario with Payment on the Maturity Date at the Principal Amount

img-1.jpeg

  • Indicates Observation Dates on which the Coupon Barrier Level is breached; therefore no Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
  • Indicates Observation Dates on which there is a Digital Payout Event; therefore an Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
  • Solactive United States Big Banks Hedged to CAD Index 3.25% AR

In this scenario, the Closing Level is below the Autocall Redemption Level on all Observation Dates so the Securities would not be redeemed before the Maturity Date. The Closing Level is at or above the Coupon Barrier Level on 42 of the 84 Observation Dates. On the Final Valuation Date, the Final Index Level is at or above the Protection Barrier Level.

(i) Interest Payments

Digital Payout Events occur on 42 of the 84 Observation Dates. Therefore, an Interest Payment would be payable for 42 Interest Periods on the applicable Interest Payment Date, for total Interest Payments of:

Principal Amount of Securities × 0.8350% per Interest Period × 42 Interest Periods

$$
\$ 100.00 \times 0.8350\% \times 42 = \$ 35.07
$$

(ii) Final Redemption Amount

In this example, the Final Index Level is greater than or equal to the Protection Barrier Level. Therefore, the Final Redemption Amount is $100.00.

Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date are:

(a) Total Interest Payments: $35.07
(b) Final Redemption Amount: $100.00
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $135.07

The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is 4.39%.


Example #3 — Gain Scenario with Autocall Redemption Event

img-2.jpeg

  • Indicates Observation Date on which the Autocall Redemption Level is exceeded.
  • Indicates Observation Dates on which there is a Digital Payout Event; therefore an Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
  • Solactive United States Big Banks Hedged to CAD Index 3.25% AR

In this scenario, the Closing Level is at or above the Autocall Redemption Level on the Observation Date that falls 33 months into the term of the Securities. This would constitute an Autocall Redemption Event and the Bank would redeem the Securities on the next succeeding Autocall Redemption Date. The Closing Level is at or above the Coupon Barrier Level on 33 Observation Dates prior to the Autocall Redemption Date.

(i) Interest Payments

Digital Payout Events occur on each of the 33 Observation Dates. Therefore, an Interest Payment would be payable for each Interest Period on the applicable Interest Payment Date (including on the Autocall Redemption Date), for total Interest Payments of:

Principal Amount of Securities × 0.8350% per Interest Period × 33 Interest Periods

$$
\$ 100.00 \times 0.8350\% \times 33 = \$ 27.56
$$

(ii) Autocall Redemption Amount

The Autocall Redemption Amount per Security is equal to $100.00.

Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Autocall Redemption Date are:

(a) Total Interest Payments: $27.56
(b) Autocall Redemption Amount: $100.00
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $127.56

The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is 9.26%.
