#### Registration Statement No. 333-269296
**The information in this preliminary pricing supplement is not complete and may be changed. This preliminary pricing supplement is not an offer to sell nor does it seek an offer to buy these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.**

| ![](gkyajhexrlrk000001.jpg) | Subject to Completion. Dated March 13, 2023.<br> **GS Finance Corp.**<br> $ Callable Contingent Coupon ETF-Linked Notes due<br> guaranteed by <br> **The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.** |

---

**The notes do not pay a fixed coupon and may pay no coupon on a payment date. The amount that you will be paid on your notes is based on the performances of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF and the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund. The notes will mature on the stated maturity date (expected to be March 22, 2030), unless we redeem them.** 

**The return on your notes is linked to the performances of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF and the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund (each, an ETF), and not to that of the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index or the Technology Select Sector Index (each, an index) on which the respective ETFs are based. In addition, the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF follows a strategy of "representative sampling", which means the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF's holdings are not the same as those of its index. The performance of any ETF may significantly diverge from that of its index.** 

**The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund was reconstituted in September 2018, removing companies such as Alphabet, Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook Inc.), AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications, Inc., which previously represented a significant percentage of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund. As a result, the current composition of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund and its index is significantly different from that of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund and its index before such changes and any performance information prior to September 2018 should not be taken into account when considering past or future performance of the Technology Select Sector Index or the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund.**

**We may redeem your notes at 100% of their face amount plus any coupon then due on the payment dates occurring in March, June, September and December of each year on or after the payment date in March 2024 up to the payment date in December 2029. Payment dates are expected to be the 22nd day of each month, commencing in April 2023 and ending on the stated maturity date.**

If we do <u>not</u> redeem your notes, if the closing level of <u>each</u> ETF is *greater than* or *equal to* 80% of its initial level (set on the trade date, expected to be March 17, 2023) on a coupon observation date (expected to be the tenth scheduled trading day for all ETFs prior to each payment date), you will receive on the applicable payment date a coupon of $6 (0.6% monthly, or the potential for up to 7.2% per annum) for each $1,000 face amount of your notes. **If the closing level of any ETF on a coupon observation date is less than 80% of its initial level, you will <u>not</u> receive a coupon on the applicable payment date.** 

If we do <u>not</u> redeem your notes, at maturity, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes, you will receive $1,000 plus the final coupon, if any.

**You should read the disclosure herein to better understand the terms and risks of your investment, including the credit risk of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. See page PS-10.**

*The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date is expected to be between $885 and $925 per $1,000 face amount. For a discussion of the estimated value and the price at which Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC would initially buy or sell your notes, if it makes a market in the notes, see the following page.*

### Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC
Pricing Supplement No.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; dated , 2023.

------

The issue price, underwriting discount and net proceeds listed above relate to the notes we sell initially. We may decide to sell additional notes after the date of this pricing supplement, at issue prices and with underwriting discounts and net proceeds that differ from the amounts set forth above. The return (whether positive or negative) on your investment in notes will depend in part on the issue price you pay for such notes.

GS Finance Corp. may use this prospectus in the initial sale of the notes. In addition, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, or any other affiliate of GS Finance Corp. may use this prospectus in a market-making transaction in a note after its initial sale.  ***Unless GS Finance Corp. or its agent informs the purchaser otherwise in the confirmation of sale, this prospectus is being used in a market-making transaction.***

<br> **Estimated Value of Your Notes**<br> *The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (GS&Co.) and taking into account our credit spreads) is expected to be between $885 and $925 per $1,000 face amount, which is less than the original issue price. The value of your notes at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted; however, the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would initially buy or sell notes (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) and the value that GS&Co. will initially use for account statements and otherwise is equal to approximately the estimated value of your notes at the time of pricing, plus an additional amount (initially equal to $ per $1,000 face amount).*<br> *Prior to , the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would buy or sell your notes (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) will equal approximately the sum of (a) the then-current estimated value of your notes (as determined by reference to GS&Co.'s pricing models) plus (b) any remaining additional amount (the additional amount will decline to zero on a straight-line basis from the time of pricing through). On and after , the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would buy or sell your notes (if it makes a market) will equal approximately the then-current estimated value of your notes determined by reference to such pricing models.*<br>

**TERMS AND CONDITIONS**<br>

#### CUSIP / ISIN: 40057R2W7 / US40057R2W72

#### Company (Issuer): GS Finance Corp.

#### Guarantor: The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
**Underliers (each individually, an underlier): the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF (current Bloomberg symbol: "XBI UP Equity"), or any successor underlier, and the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund (current Bloomberg symbol: "XLK UP Equity"), or any successor underlier, as each may be modified, replaced or adjusted from time to time as provided herein**

**Underlying indices (each individually, an underlying index): with respect to the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF, the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index, and with respect to the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund, the Technology Select Sector Index**

**Face amount: $ in the aggregate on the original issue date; the aggregate face amount may be increased if the company, at its sole option, decides to sell an additional amount on a date subsequent to the trade date**

#### Authorized denominations: $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof
**Principal amount: Subject to redemption by the company as provided under "— Company's redemption right " below, on the stated maturity date, in addition to the final coupon, if any, the company will pay, for each $1,000 of the outstanding face amount, an amount in cash equal to $1,000.**

**Company's redemption right: the company may redeem this note, at its option, in whole but not in part, on the coupon payment dates occurring in March, June, September and December of each year, commencing in March 2024 and ending in December 2029, for an amount in cash for each $1,000 of the outstanding face amount on the redemption date equal to 100% of such $1,000 face amount plus any coupon then due.**

If the company chooses to exercise the company's redemption right, it will notify the holder of this note and the trustee by giving at least ten business days' prior notice. The day the company gives the notice, which will be a business day, will be the redemption notice date and the immediately following coupon payment date, which the company will state in the redemption notice, will be the redemption date.

The company will not give a redemption notice that results in a redemption date later than the December 2029 coupon payment date. A redemption notice, once given, shall be irrevocable.

#### Initial underlier level (set on the trade date) : with respect to an underlier, the closing level of such underlier on the trade date
**Coupon: subject to the company's redemption right, on each coupon payment date, for each $1,000 of the outstanding face amount, the company will pay an amount in cash equal to:** 

• if the closing level of <u>each</u> underlier on the related coupon observation date is *greater than* or *equal* to its coupon trigger level, $6 (0.6% monthly, or the potential for up to 7.2% per annum); or

• if the closing level of <u>any</u> underlier on the related coupon observation date is *less than* its coupon trigger level, $0

The coupon paid on any coupon payment date will be paid to the person in whose name this note is registered as of the close of business on the regular record date for such coupon payment date. If the coupon is due at maturity but on a day that is not a coupon payment date, the coupon will be paid to the person entitled to receive the principal of this note.

#### Coupon trigger level: for each underlier, 80% of its initial underlier level

#### Trade date: expected to be March 17, 2023

#### Original issue date (set on the trade date): expected to be March 22, 2023
**Determination date (set on the trade date): the last coupon observation date, expected to be March 8, 2030, subject to adjustment as described under "— Coupon observation dates" below. If the stated maturity date is postponed due to a non-business day as described under "Stated maturity date" below, such postponement of the stated maturity date will not postpone the determination date.**

**Stated maturity date (set on the trade date): expected to be March 22, 2030, unless that day is not a business day, in which case the stated maturity date will be postponed to the next following business day.** 

------

#### If the determination date is postponed as described under "— Determination date" above, such postponement of the determination date will not postpone the stated maturity date.
**Coupon observation dates (set on the trade date): expected to be the tenth scheduled trading day for all underliers prior to each coupon payment date, unless the calculation agent determines that, with respect to any underlier, a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on that day or that day is not otherwise a trading day. If a coupon payment date is postponed due to a non-business day as described under "— Coupon payment dates" below, such postponement of the coupon payment date will not postpone the related coupon observation date.**

In the event the originally scheduled coupon observation date is a non-trading day with respect to any underlier, the coupon observation date will be the first day thereafter that is a trading day for all underliers (the "first qualified coupon trading day") provided that no market disruption event occurs or is continuing with respect to an underlier on that day. If a market disruption event with respect to an underlier occurs or is continuing on the originally scheduled coupon observation date or the first qualified coupon trading day, the coupon observation date will be the first following trading day on which the calculation agent determines that each underlier has had at least one trading day (from and including the originally scheduled coupon observation date or the first qualified coupon trading day, as applicable) on which no market disruption event has occurred or is continuing and the closing level of each underlier for that coupon observation date will be determined on or prior to the postponed coupon observation date as set forth under "— Consequences of a market disruption event or a non-trading day" below. (In such case, the coupon observation date may differ from the date on which the level of an underlier is determined for the purpose of the calculations to be performed on the coupon observation date.) In no event, however, will the coupon observation date be postponed by more than three scheduled trading days for all underliers from the originally scheduled coupon observation date either due to the occurrence of serial non-trading days or due to the occurrence of one or more market disruption events. (For the avoidance of doubt, a day that is a scheduled trading day for only one underlier will not count as one of the three scheduled trading days for this purpose.) On such last possible coupon observation date applicable to the relevant coupon payment date, if a market disruption event occurs or is continuing with respect to an underlier that has not yet had such a trading day on which no market disruption event has occurred or is continuing or if such last possible day is not a trading day with respect to such underlier, that day will nevertheless be the coupon observation date.

**Coupon payment dates (set on the trade date): expected to be the 22nd day of each month, commencing in April 2023 and ending on the stated maturity date, unless, for any such coupon payment date, that day is not a business day, in which case such coupon payment date will be postponed to the next following business day. If a coupon observation date is postponed as described under "— Coupon observation dates" above, such postponement of the coupon observation date will not postpone the related coupon payment date.**

**Closing level: on any trading day, with respect to an underlier, the closing sale price or last reported sale price, regular way, for such underlier, on a per-share or other unit basis:**

• on the principal national securities exchange on which such underlier is listed for trading on that day, or

• if such underlier is not listed on any national securities exchange on that day, on any other U.S. national market system that is the primary market for the trading of such underlier.

If an underlier is not listed or traded as described above, then the closing level for such underlier on any day will be the average, as determined by the calculation agent, of the bid prices for such underlier obtained from as many dealers in such underlier selected by the calculation agent as will make those bid prices available to the calculation agent. The number of dealers need not exceed three and may include the calculation agent or any of its or the company's affiliates.

The closing level of an underlier is subject to adjustment as described under "— Anti-dilution adjustments" below.

**Trading day: with respect to an underlier, a day on which (i) the exchange on which such underlier has its primary listing is open for trading and (ii) the price of one share of such underlier is quoted by the exchange on which such underlier has its primary listing. A day is a scheduled trading day with respect to an underlier if, as of the trade date, (i) the exchange on which such underlier has its primary listing is scheduled to be open for trading and (ii) the price of one share of such underlier is expected to be quoted by the exchange on which such underlier has its primary listing.**

**Successor underlier: with respect to an underlier, any substitute underlier approved by the calculation agent as a successor as provided under "— Discontinuance or modification of an underlier" below**

------

**Underlier investment advisor: with respect to an underlier, at any time, the person or entity, including any successor investment advisor, that serves as an investment advisor to such underlier as then in effect**

**Underlier stocks: with respect to an underlier, at any time, the stocks that comprise such underlier as then in effect, after giving effect to any additions, deletions or substitutions**

#### Market disruption event: With respect to any given trading day, any of the following will be a market disruption event with respect to an underlier:
• a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading in such underlier on its primary market for more than two consecutive hours of trading or during the one-half hour before the close of trading in that market, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion,

• a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading in option or futures contracts relating to such underlier in the primary market for those contracts for more than two consecutive hours of trading or during the one-half hour before the close of trading in that market, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion, or

• such underlier does not trade on what was the primary market for such underlier, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion,

and, in the case of any of these events, the calculation agent determines in its sole discretion that the event could materially interfere with the ability of the company or any of its affiliates or a similarly situated person to unwind all or a material portion of a hedge that could be effected with respect to this note.

The following events will not be market disruption events:

• a limitation on the hours or numbers of days of trading, but only if the limitation results from an announced change in the regular business hours of the relevant market, and

• a decision to permanently discontinue trading in option or futures contracts relating to such underlier.

For this purpose, an "absence of trading" in the primary securities market on which shares of such underlier are traded, or on which option or futures contracts, if available, relating to such underlier are traded, will not include any time when that market is itself closed for trading under ordinary circumstances. In contrast, a suspension or limitation of trading in shares of such underlier or in option or futures contracts, if available, relating to such underlier in the primary market for such underlier or those contracts, by reason of:

• a price change exceeding limits set by that market,

• an imbalance of orders relating to the shares of such underlier or those contracts, or

• a disparity in bid and ask quotes relating to the shares of such underlier or those contracts,

will constitute a suspension or material limitation of trading in shares of such underlier or those contracts in that market.

A market disruption event with respect to one underlier will not, by itself, constitute a market disruption event for any unaffected underlier.

**Consequences of a market disruption event or a non-trading day: With respect to any underlier, if a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on a day that would otherwise be a coupon observation date (and the determination date in the case of the last coupon observation date), or such day is not a trading day, then such coupon observation date will be postponed as described under "— Coupon observation dates" above. If any coupon observation date (and the determination date in the case of the last coupon observation date) is postponed to the last possible date due to the occurrence of serial non-trading days, the level of each underlier will be the calculation agent's assessment of such level, in its sole discretion, on such last possible postponed coupon observation date (and the determination date in the case of the last coupon observation date). If any coupon observation date (and the determination date in the case of the last coupon observation date) is postponed due to a market disruption event with respect to any underlier, the closing level of each underlier with respect to such coupon observation date will be calculated based on (i) for any underlier that is not affected by a market disruption event on the applicable originally scheduled coupon observation date or the first qualified coupon trading day thereafter (if applicable), the closing level of the underlier on that date, (ii) for any underlier that is affected by a market disruption event on the applicable originally scheduled coupon observation date or the first qualified coupon trading day thereafter (if applicable), the closing level of the underlier on the first following trading day on which no market disruption event exists for such underlier and (iii) the calculation agent's assessment, in its sole discretion, of the level of any underlier on the last possible postponed** 

------

**coupon observation date with respect to such underlier as to which a market disruption event continues through the last possible postponed coupon observation date. As a result, this could result in the closing level on any coupon observation date of each underlier being determined on different calendar dates. For the avoidance of doubt, once the closing level for an underlier is determined for a coupon observation date (or the determination date in the case of the last coupon observation date), the occurrence of a later market disruption event or non-trading day will not alter such calculation.**

**Discontinuance or modification of an underlier: If an underlier is delisted from the exchange on which the underlier has its primary listing and its underlier investment advisor or anyone else publishes a substitute underlier that the calculation agent determines is comparable to such underlier and approves as a successor underlier, or if the calculation agent designates a substitute underlier, then the calculation agent will determine the coupon payable, if any, on the relevant coupon payment date by reference to such successor underlier.**

If the calculation agent determines on a coupon observation date or the determination date, as applicable, that an underlier is delisted or withdrawn from the exchange on which the underlier has its primary listing and there is no successor underlier, the calculation agent will determine the coupon on the related coupon payment date or the stated maturity date, as applicable, by a computation methodology that the calculation agent determines will as closely as reasonably possible replicate such underlier.

If the calculation agent determines that an underlier, the underlier stocks comprising such underlier or the method of calculating such underlier is changed at any time in any respect — including any split or reverse split of the underlier, a material change in the investment objective of the underlier and any addition, deletion or substitution and any reweighting or rebalancing of such underlier and whether the change is made by the underlier investment advisor under its existing policies or following a modification of those policies, is due to the publication of a successor underlier, is due to events affecting one or more of the underlier stocks or their issuers or is due to any other reason — then the calculation agent will be permitted (but not required) to make such adjustments in such underlier or the method of its calculation as it believes are appropriate to ensure that the levels of such underlier used to determine the coupon on the related coupon payment date or the stated maturity date, as applicable, is equitable.

All determinations and adjustments to be made by the calculation agent with respect to an underlier may be made by the calculation agent in its sole discretion. The calculation agent is not obligated to make any such adjustments.

#### Regular record dates: the scheduled business day immediately preceding the day on which payment is to be made (as such payment date may be adjusted)
**Anti-dilution adjustments: the calculation agent will have discretion to adjust the closing level of an underlier if certain events occur (including those described above under "— Discontinuance or modification of an underlier"). In the event that any event other than a delisting or withdrawal from the relevant exchange occurs, the calculation agent shall determine whether and to what extent an adjustment should be made to the level of such underlier or any other term. The calculation agent shall have no obligation to make an adjustment for any such event.**

#### Calculation agent: Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC ("GS&Co.")
**Tax characterization: The holder, on behalf of itself and any other person having a beneficial interest in this note, hereby agrees with the company (in the absence of a change in law, an administrative determination or a judicial ruling to the contrary) to characterize this note for all U.S. federal income tax purposes as a variable rate debt instrument or if, based on market conditions on the trade date, the company takes the position that it is reasonably expected that the return on this note during the first half of this note's term will be significantly greater or less than the return on this note during the second half of this note's term, a contingent payment debt instrument.**

#### Overdue principal rate and overdue coupon rate : the effective Federal Funds rate

#### HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLES
The following examples are provided for purposes of illustration only. They should not be taken as an indication or prediction of future investment results and are intended merely to illustrate the impact that various hypothetical closing levels of the underliers on a coupon observation date could have on the coupon payable, if any, on the related coupon payment date assuming all other variables remain constant.

The examples below are based on a range of underlier levels that are entirely hypothetical; no one can predict what the closing level of any underlier will be on any day throughout the life of your notes and what the closing level of any underlier will be on any coupon observation date. The underliers have been highly volatile in the past — meaning that the underlier levels have changed substantially in relatively short periods — and their performance cannot be predicted for any future period.

The information in the following examples reflects hypothetical rates of return on the offered notes assuming that they are purchased on the original issue date at the face amount and held to the stated maturity date or date of early redemption. If you sell your notes in a secondary market prior to the stated maturity date or date of early redemption, as the case may be, your return will depend upon the market value of your notes at the time of sale, which may be affected by a number of factors that are not reflected in the examples below such as interest rates, the volatility of the underliers, the creditworthiness of GS Finance Corp., as issuer, and the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor. In addition, the estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by GS&Co.) is less than the original issue price of your notes. For more information on the estimated value of your notes, see "Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes — The Estimated Value of Your Notes At the Time the Terms of Your Notes Are Set On the Trade Date (as Determined By Reference to Pricing Models Used By GS&Co.) Is Less Than the Original Issue Price Of Your Notes" on page PS-10 of this pricing supplement. The information in the examples also reflects the key terms and assumptions in the box below.

| Coupon trigger level | with respect to each underlier, 80% of its initial underlier level |
| Neither a market disruption event nor a non-trading day occurs on any originally scheduled coupon observation date or the originally scheduled determination date | Neither a market disruption event nor a non-trading day occurs on any originally scheduled coupon observation date or the originally scheduled determination date |

---

Moreover, we have not yet set the initial underlier levels that will serve as the baseline for determining the coupon payable on each coupon payment date, if any. We will not do so until the trade date. As a result, the actual initial underlier levels may differ substantially from the underlier levels prior to the trade date. They may also differ substantially from the underlier levels at the time you purchase your notes.

For these reasons, the actual performance of the underliers over the life of your notes, the actual underlier levels on any coupon observation date, as well as the coupon payable, if any, on each coupon payment date, may bear little relation to the hypothetical examples shown below or to the historical underlier levels shown elsewhere in this pricing supplement. For information about the underlier levels during recent periods, see "The Underliers — Historical Closing Levels of the Underliers" on page PS-24. Before investing in the notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the underlier levels between the date of this pricing supplement and the date of your purchase of the notes.

Also, the hypothetical examples shown below do not take into account the effects of applicable taxes. Because of the U.S. tax treatment applicable to your notes, tax liabilities could affect the after-tax rate of return on your notes to a comparatively greater extent than the after-tax return on the underlier stocks.

#### Hypothetical Coupon Payments
The examples below show hypothetical performances of each underlier as well as the hypothetical coupons, if any, that we would pay on each coupon payment date with respect to each $1,000 face amount of the notes if the hypothetical closing level of each underlier on the applicable coupon observation date was the percentage of its initial underlier level shown.

#### Scenario 1

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Hypothetical Coupon Observation Date** | **Hypothetical Closing Level of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF**<br> **(as Percentage of Initial Underlier Level)** | **Hypothetical Closing Level of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund (as Percentage of Initial Underlier Level)** | **Hypothetical Coupon** |
| **First** | 30% | 80% | $0 |
| **Second** | 50% | 60% | $0 |
| **Third** | 110% | 70% | $0 |

| **Fifth** | 45% | 50% | $0 |
| **Sixth** | 45% | 50% | $0 |
| **Seventh** | **85%** | **90%** | **$6** |
| **Eighth** | 60% | 70% | $0 |

| **Twelfth – Eighty-Fourth**  | 60% | 60% | $0 |
|  |  | **Total Hypothetical Coupons** | **$12** |

---

In Scenario 1, the hypothetical closing level of each underlier increases and decreases by varying amounts on each hypothetical coupon observation date. Because the hypothetical closing level of <u>each</u> underlier on the fourth and seventh hypothetical coupon observation dates is *greater than or equal* to its coupon trigger level, the total of the hypothetical coupons in Scenario 1 is $12. Because the hypothetical closing level of <u>at least one</u> underlier on all other hypothetical coupon observation dates is less than its coupon trigger level, no further coupons will be paid, including at maturity.

#### Scenario 2

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Hypothetical Coupon Observation Date** | **Hypothetical Closing Level of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF**<br> **(as Percentage of Initial Underlier Level)** | **Hypothetical Closing Level of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund (as Percentage of Initial Underlier Level)** | **Hypothetical Coupon** |
| **First** | 45% | 110% | $0 |
| **Second** | 40% | 50% | $0 |
| **Third** | 40% | 45% | $0 |
| **Fourth** | 45% | 55% | $0 |
| **Fifth** | 50% | 40% | $0 |
| **Sixth** | 110% | 50% | $0 |
| **Seventh** | 35% | 40% | $0 |
| **Eighth** | 45% | 50% | $0 |
| **Ninth** | 40% | 50% | $0 |
| **Tenth** | 50% | 110% | $0 |
| **Eleventh** | 40% | 50% | $0 |
| **Twelfth – Eighty-Fourth** | 60% | 60% | $0 |
|  |  | **Total Hypothetical Coupons** | **$0** |

---

In Scenario 2, the hypothetical closing level of each underlier increases and decreases by varying amounts on each hypothetical coupon observation date. Because in each case the hypothetical closing level of at least one underlier on the related coupon observation date is *less than* its coupon trigger level, you will not receive a coupon payment on the applicable hypothetical coupon payment date. Since this occurs on every hypothetical coupon observation date, the overall return you earn on your notes will be zero. Therefore, the total of the hypothetical coupons in Scenario 2 is $0.

#### Scenario 3

| **Twelfth** | **110%** | **105%** | **$6** |
|  |  | **Total Hypothetical Coupons** | **$6** |

---

In Scenario 3, the hypothetical closing level of each underlier is *less than* its coupon trigger level on the first eleven hypothetical coupon observation dates, but increases to a level that is *greater than* its hypothetical initial underlier level on the twelfth hypothetical coupon observation date. Further, we also exercise our early redemption right with respect to a redemption on the twelfth coupon payment date (which is also the first hypothetical date with respect to which we could exercise such right). Therefore, on the twelfth coupon payment date (the redemption date), in addition to the hypothetical coupon of $6, you will receive an amount in cash equal to $1,000 for each $1,000 face amount of your notes.

Payments on the notes are economically equivalent to the amounts that would be paid on a combination of other instruments. For example, payments on the notes are economically equivalent to a combination of an interest-bearing bond bought by the holder and one or more options entered into between the holder and us (with one or more implicit option premiums paid over time). The discussion in this paragraph does not modify or affect the terms of the notes or the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the notes, as described elsewhere in this pricing supplement.

*We cannot predict the actual closing levels of the underliers on any day or what the market value of your notes will be on any particular trading day, nor can we predict the relationship between the closing levels of the underliers and the market value of your notes at any time prior to the stated maturity date. The actual coupon payment, if any, that a holder of the notes will receive on each coupon payment date and the rate of return on the offered notes will depend on whether or not the notes are redeemed and the actual initial underlier levels, which we will set on the trade date, and on the actual closing levels of the underliers determined by the calculation agent as described above. Moreover, the assumptions on which the hypothetical examples are based may turn out to be inaccurate. Consequently, the coupon to be paid in respect of your notes, if any, may be very different from the information reflected in the examples above.*

**Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes**<br>

*An investment in your notes is subject to the risks described below, as well as the risks and considerations described in the accompanying prospectus, in the accompanying prospectus supplement, under "Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Securities" in the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33 and under "Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes" in the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999. You should carefully review these risks and considerations as well as the terms of the notes described herein and in the accompanying prospectus, the accompanying prospectus supplement, the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33 and the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999. Your notes are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. Also, your notes are not equivalent to investing directly in the underlier stocks, i.e., with respect to an underlier to which your notes are linked, the stocks comprising such underlier. You should carefully consider whether the offered notes are appropriate given your particular circumstances*

#### Risks Related to Structure, Valuation and Secondary Market Sales
**The Estimated Value of Your Notes At the Time the Terms of Your Notes Are Set On the Trade Date (as Determined By Reference to Pricing Models Used By GS&Co.) Is Less Than the Original Issue Price Of Your Notes**

The original issue price for your notes exceeds the estimated value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date, as determined by reference to GS&Co.'s pricing models and taking into account our credit spreads. Such estimated value on the trade date is set forth above under "Estimated Value of Your Notes"; after the trade date, the estimated value as determined by reference to these models will be affected by changes in market conditions, the creditworthiness of GS Finance Corp., as issuer, the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor, and other relevant factors. The price at which GS&Co. would initially buy or sell your notes (if GS&Co. makes a market, which it is not obligated to do), and the value that GS&Co. will initially use for account statements and otherwise, also exceeds the estimated value of your notes as determined by reference to these models. As agreed by GS&Co. and the distribution participants, this excess (i.e., the additional amount described under "Estimated Value of Your Notes") will decline to zero on a straight line basis over the period from the date hereof through the applicable date set forth above under "Estimated Value of Your Notes". Thereafter, if GS&Co. buys or sells your notes it will do so at prices that reflect the estimated value determined by reference to such pricing models at that time. The price at which GS&Co. will buy or sell your notes at any time also will reflect its then current bid and ask spread for similar sized trades of structured notes.

In estimating the value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date, as disclosed above under "Estimated Value of Your Notes", GS&Co.'s pricing models consider certain variables, including principally our credit spreads, interest rates (forecasted, current and historical rates), volatility, price-sensitivity analysis and the time to maturity of the notes. These pricing models are proprietary and rely in part on certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual value you would receive if you sold your notes in the secondary market, if any, to others may differ, perhaps materially, from the estimated value of your notes determined by reference to our models due to, among other things, any differences in pricing models or assumptions used by others. See "—The Market Value of Your Notes May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors" below.

The difference between the estimated value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date and the original issue price is a result of certain factors, including principally the underwriting discount and commissions, the expenses incurred in creating, documenting and marketing the notes, and an estimate of the difference between the amounts we pay to GS&Co. and the amounts GS&Co. pays to us in connection with your notes. We pay to GS&Co. amounts based on what we would pay to holders of a non-structured note with a similar maturity. In return for such payment, GS&Co. pays to us the amounts we owe under your notes.

In addition to the factors discussed above, the value and quoted price of your notes at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted. If GS&Co. makes a market in the notes, the price quoted by GS&Co. would reflect any changes in market conditions and other relevant factors, including any deterioration in our creditworthiness or perceived creditworthiness or the creditworthiness or perceived creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. These changes may adversely affect the value of your notes, including the price you may receive for your notes in any market making transaction. To the extent that GS&Co. makes a market in the

------

notes, the quoted price will reflect the estimated value determined by reference to GS&Co.'s pricing models at that time, plus or minus its then current bid and ask spread for similar sized trades of structured notes (and subject to the declining excess amount described above).

Furthermore, if you sell your notes, you will likely be charged a commission for secondary market transactions, or the price will likely reflect a dealer discount. This commission or discount will further reduce the proceeds you would receive for your notes in a secondary market sale.

There is no assurance that GS&Co. or any other party will be willing to purchase your notes at any price and, in this regard, GS&Co. is not obligated to make a market in the notes. See "Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes — Your Notes May Not Have an Active Trading Market" on page S-7 of the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999.

#### The Notes Are Subject to the Credit Risk of the Issuer and the Guarantor
Although the coupons (if any) and return on the notes will be based on the performance of each underlier, the payment of any amount due on the notes is subject to the credit risk of GS Finance Corp., as issuer of the notes, and the credit risk of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor of the notes. The notes are our unsecured obligations. Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the notes, and therefore investors are subject to our credit risk and to changes in the market's view of our creditworthiness. Similarly, investors are dependent on the ability of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor of the notes, to pay all amounts due on the notes, and therefore are also subject to its credit risk and to changes in the market's view of its creditworthiness. See "Description of the Notes We May Offer — Information About Our Medium-Term Notes, Series F Program — How the Notes Rank Against Other Debt" on page S-5 of the accompanying prospectus supplement and "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer – Guarantee by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc." on page 67 of the accompanying prospectus.

#### You May Not Receive a Coupon on Any Coupon Payment Date
If the closing level of any underlier on the related coupon observation date is *less than* its coupon trigger level, you will not receive a coupon payment on the applicable coupon payment date. If this occurs on every coupon observation date, the overall return you earn on your notes will be zero and such return will be less than you would have earned by investing in a note that bears interest at the prevailing market rate.

You will only receive a coupon on a coupon payment date if the closing level of each underlier on the related coupon observation date is greater than or equal to its coupon trigger level. You should be aware that, with respect to any prior coupon observation dates that did not result in the payment of a coupon, you will not be compensated for any opportunity cost implied by inflation and other factors relating to the time value of money. Further, there is no guarantee that you will receive any coupon payment with respect to the notes at any time.

#### We Are Able to Redeem Your Notes at Our Option
On the coupon payment dates occurring in March, June, September and December of each year, commencing in March 2024 and ending in December 2029, we will be permitted to redeem your notes at our option. Even if we do not exercise our option to redeem your notes, our ability to do so may adversely affect the value of your notes. It is our sole option whether to redeem your notes prior to maturity and we may or may not exercise this option for any reason. Because of this redemption option, the term of your notes could be reduced.

**The Coupon Does Not Reflect the Actual Performance of the Underliers from the Trade Date to Any Coupon Observation Date or from Coupon Observation Date to Coupon Observation Date**

The coupon for each monthly coupon payment date is different from, and may be less than, a coupon determined based on the percentage difference of the closing levels of the underliers between the trade date and any coupon observation date or between two coupon observation dates. Accordingly, the coupons, if any, on the notes may be less than the return you could earn on another instrument linked to the underliers that pays coupons based on the performance of the underliers from the trade date to any coupon observation date or from coupon observation date to coupon observation date.

------

#### The Market Value of Your Notes May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors
When we refer to the market value of your notes, we mean the value that you could receive for your notes if you chose to sell them in the open market before the stated maturity date. A number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, will influence the market value of your notes, including:

• the levels of the underliers;

• the volatility – i.e., the frequency and magnitude of changes – in the closing levels of the underliers;

• the dividend rates of the underlier stocks;

• economic, financial, regulatory, political, military, public health and other events that affect stock markets generally and the underlier stocks, and which may affect the closing level of the underlier or underliers;

• interest rates and yield rates in the market;

• the time remaining until your notes mature; and

• our creditworthiness and the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., whether actual or perceived, and including actual or anticipated upgrades or downgrades in our credit ratings or the credit ratings of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. or changes in other credit measures.

Without limiting the foregoing, the market value of your notes may be negatively impacted by increasing interest rates. Such adverse impact of increasing interest rates could be significantly enhanced in notes with longer-dated maturities, the market values of which are generally more sensitive to increasing interest rates.

These factors may influence the market value of your notes if you sell your notes before maturity, including the price you may receive for your notes in any market making transaction. If you sell your notes prior to maturity, you may receive less than the face amount of your notes. You cannot predict the future performance of the underliers based on their historical performance.

**If You Purchase Your Notes at a Premium to Face Amount, the Return on Your Investment Will Be Lower Than the Return on Notes Purchased at Face Amount and the Impact of Certain Key Terms of the Notes Will Be Negatively Affected**

The amount we will pay you at maturity or upon any early redemption of your notes will not be adjusted based on the issue price you pay for the notes. If you purchase notes at a price that differs from the face amount of the notes, then the return on your investment in such notes held to the stated maturity date or date of early redemption will differ from, and may be substantially less than, the return on notes purchased at face amount. If you purchase your notes at a premium to face amount and hold them to the stated maturity date or date of early redemption, the return on your investment in the notes will be lower than it would have been had you purchased the notes at face amount or a discount to face amount.

#### The Return on Your Notes Will Not Reflect Any Dividends Paid on the Underliers or the Underlier Stocks
The return on your notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the underliers and received the distributions paid on the shares of such underliers. You will not receive any dividends that may be paid on any of the underlier stocks by the underlier stock issuers or the shares of the underliers. See "— You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Shares of the Underliers or Any Underlier Stock" below for additional information.

#### You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Shares of the Underliers or Any Underlier Stock
Investing in your notes will not make you a holder of any shares of the underliers or any underlier stocks. Neither you nor any other holder or owner of your notes will have any rights with respect to the underliers or the underlier stocks, including any voting rights, any right to receive dividends or other distributions, any rights to make a claim against the underliers or the underlier stocks or any other rights of a holder of any shares of the underliers or the underlier stocks. Your notes will be paid in cash, as will any coupon payments, and you will have no right to receive delivery of any shares of the underliers or any underlier stocks.

#### We May Sell an Additional Aggregate Face Amount of the Notes at a Different Issue Price
At our sole option, we may decide to sell an additional aggregate face amount of the notes subsequent to the date of this pricing supplement. The issue price of the notes in the subsequent sale may differ substantially (higher or lower) from the issue price you paid as provided on the cover of this pricing supplement.

------

#### Additional Risks Related to the Underlier s
**The Policies of the Investment Advisor of the Underliers, SSGA Funds Management, Inc., and the Sponsor of the Underlying Indices, S&P, Could Affect the Amount Payable on Your Notes and Their Market Value**

The investment advisor of the underliers, SSGA Funds Management, Inc. ("SSGA"), may from time to time be called upon to make certain policy decisions or judgments with respect to the implementation of policies of the investment advisor concerning the calculation of the net asset value of the underliers, additions, deletions or substitutions of securities in the underliers and the manner in which changes affecting the underlying index for any underlier is reflected in that underlier that could affect the market price of the shares of that underlier, and therefore, the amount payable on your notes on the stated maturity date. The amount payable on your notes and their market value could also be affected if the investment advisor changes these policies, for example, by changing the manner in which it calculates the net asset value of an underlier, or if the investment advisor discontinues or suspends calculation or publication of the net asset value of an underlier, in which case it may become difficult or inappropriate to determine the market value of your notes.

If events such as these occur, the calculation agent — which initially will be GS&Co. — may determine the closing level of the underliers on a coupon observation date— and thus the amount payable on a coupon payment date — in a manner it considers appropriate, in its sole discretion. We describe the discretion that the calculation agent will have in determining the closing level of the underliers on a coupon observation date, and the amount payable on your notes more fully under "Terms and Conditions— Discontinuance or modification of an underlier" on page PS-6 of this pricing supplement.

In addition, S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, the sponsor of the underlying indices, owns each underlying index and is responsible for the design and maintenance of the underlying indices. The policies of the underlying index sponsor concerning the calculation of a particular underlying index, including decisions regarding the addition, deletion or substitution of the equity securities included in that underlying index, could affect the level of that underlying index and, consequently, could affect the market prices of shares of the related underlier and, therefore, the amount payable on your notes and their market value.

**There is No Assurance That an Active Trading Market Will Continue for the Underliers or That There Will Be Liquidity in Any Such Trading Market; Further, the Underliers Are Subject to Management Risks, Securities Lending Risks and Custody Risks**

Although the shares of the underliers are listed for trading on NYSE Arca, Inc. (the "NYSE Arca") and a number of similar products have been traded on the NYSE Arca or other securities exchanges for varying periods of time, there is no assurance that an active trading market will continue for the shares of any underlier or that there will be liquidity in the trading market.

In addition, each underlier is subject to management risk, which is the risk that the underlier investment advisor's investment strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. For example, the underlier investment advisor for the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF may select up to 10% of its underlier's assets and the underlying investment advisor for the SPDR<sup>®</sup> Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund may select up to 5% of its underlier's assets, in each case, to be invested in shares of equity securities that are not included in its underlying index. No underlier is actively managed and each underlier may be affected by a general decline in market segments relating to its underlying index. Each underlier investment advisor invests in securities included in, or representative of, the underlying index regardless of their investment merits. The underlier investment advisor does not attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets. In addition, each underlier's investment advisor may be permitted to engage in securities lending with respect to a portion of an underlier's total assets, which could subject the underlier to the risk that the borrower of such loaned securities fails to return the securities in a timely manner or at all.

In addition, the underliers are subject to custody risk, which refers to the risks in the process of clearing and settling trades and to the holding of securities by local banks, agents and depositories.

Further, the underliers are subject to listing standards adopted by NYSE Arca. There can be no assurance that the underliers will continue to meet the applicable listing requirements, or that the underliers will not be delisted.

------

#### Additional Risks Related to the SPDR<sup>®</sup>S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF
**The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF and its Underlying Index are Different and the Performance of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF May Not Correlate With the Performance of its Underlying Index**

The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF uses a representative sampling strategy (more fully described under "The Underliers") to attempt to track the performance of its underlying index. The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF may not hold all or substantially all of the equity securities included in its underlying index and may hold securities or assets not included in its underlying index. Therefore, while the performance of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF is generally linked to the performance of its underlying index, the performance of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF is also linked in part to shares of equity securities not included in its underlying index and to the performance of other assets, such as futures contracts, options and swaps, as well as cash and cash equivalents, including shares of money market funds affiliated with the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF investment advisor.

Imperfect correlation between the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF's portfolio securities and those in its underlying index, rounding of prices, changes to its underlying index and regulatory requirements may cause tracking error, which is the divergence of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF's performance from that of its underlying index.

In addition, the performance of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF will reflect additional transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of its underlying index and this may increase the tracking error of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF. Also, corporate actions with respect to the sample of equity securities (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the performance differential between the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF and its underlying index. Finally, because the shares of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF are traded on the NYSE Arca and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of one share of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF may differ from the net asset value per share of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF.

For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF may not correlate with the performance of its underlying index. Consequently, the amount payable on your notes will not be the same as investing directly in the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF or in its underlying index or in any of its underlier stocks or in any of the stocks comprising its underlying index, and will not be the same as investing in a debt security with a payment at maturity linked to the performance of its underlying index.

#### The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF is Concentrated in Biotechnology Companies and Does Not Provide Diversified Exposure
The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF is not diversified. The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF's assets will be concentrated in biotechnology companies, which means the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF is more likely to be adversely affected by any negative performance of biotechnology companies than an index that has more diversified holdings across a number of sectors. Biotechnology companies invest heavily in research and development which may not necessarily lead to commercially successful products. Biotechnology companies are also subject to increased governmental regulation which may delay or inhibit the release of new products. Many biotechnology companies are dependent upon their ability to use and enforce intellectual property rights and patents. Any impairment of such rights may have adverse financial consequences. Biotechnology stocks, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Biotechnology companies can be significantly affected by technological change and obsolescence, product liability lawsuits and consequential high insurance costs.

#### Additional Risks Related to the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund
**The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund and Its Underlying Index are Different and the Performance of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund May Not Correlate With the Performance of its Underlying Index**

The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund will generally invest in substantially all of the securities included in its underlying index. There may, however, be instances where the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund may choose to overweight one or more securities in its underlying index, purchase securities not included in its underlying index or utilize various combinations of other available investment techniques in seeking to track its underlying index. Although the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund seeks to track the performance of its underlying index as closely as possible, the return of such underlier may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of its underlying index due to, among other things, operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, regulatory requirements and operational inefficiencies. In addition, corporate actions with

------

respect to the securities included in its underlying index, such as mergers and spin-offs, may impact the variance between an underlier and its underlying index. For example, SSGA anticipates that it may take several business days for additions and deletions to an underlying index to be reflected in the portfolio composition of the applicable underlier. Finally, as the shares of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund are traded on the NYSE Arca and are affected by market forces such as supply and demand, economic conditions and other factors, the trading prices of one share of an underlier generally differ from (and may deviate significantly during periods of market volatility from) the daily net asset value per share of such underlier. For these reasons, the performance of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund may not correlate with the performance of its underlying index. Consequently, the amount payable on your notes will not be the same as investing directly in each underlier or in each underlying index or in any of the respective underlier stocks or in any of the respective stocks comprising such underlying index, and will not be the same as investing in a debt security with a payment at maturity linked to the performance of each underlying index.

#### The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund is Concentrated in the Information Technology Sector and Does Not Provide Diversified Exposure
The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund is not diversified. The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund's assets are concentrated in the Information Technology sector, which means the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund is more likely to be more adversely affected by any negative performance of the Information Technology sector than an underlier that has more diversified holdings across a number of sectors. Market or economic factors impacting technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technological advances could have a major effect on the value of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund's investments. The value of stocks of technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with lower production costs. Stocks of technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the Information Technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel.

In addition, the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund and underlying index were reconstituted in September 2018 to reflect updates to the GICS structure, which reduced diversification of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund's assets. As a result of the GICS changes, certain companies from the Information Technology sector or the former Telecommunication Services sector were reclassified under the new Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector. For example, due to the reclassification, several large companies generally recognized as technology companies, such as Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook Inc.) and Alphabet Inc., were moved out of the Information Technology sector into the new Communication Services sector. The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund now tracks the performance of only those technology companies that remain in the underlying index following its reconstitution, which excludes companies that have been reclassified under the Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector. Consequently, the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund is less diversified than it was before this change to its portfolio. For more information, please see "The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund Was Reconstituted in September 2018 Based on Changes to the Technology Select Sector Index and No Longer Provides Exposure to Certain Companies that Were Previously Included in the Technology Select Sector Index and Heavily Weighted in the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund" below.

#### The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund May Be Disproportionately Affected By the Performance of a Small Number of Stocks
Although the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund held 76 stocks as of March 9, 2023, 43.81% of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund was invested in just two stocks –Microsoft Corporation and Apple Inc. As a result, a decline in the prices of one or both of these stocks, including as a result of events negatively affecting one or both of these companies, may have the effect of significantly lowering the price of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund even if none of the other stocks held by the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund are affected by such events. Because of the weighting of the holdings of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund, the amount you receive at maturity could be less than the payment at maturity you would have received if you had

------

invested in a product linked to an underlier that capped the maximum weight of any one stock to a low amount or that equally weighted all stocks held by such underlier.

**The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund Was Reconstituted in September 2018 Based on Changes to the Technology Select Sector Index and No Longer Provides Exposure to Certain Companies that Were Previously Included in the Technology Select Sector Index and Heavily Weighted in the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund**

Before the recent changes to the GICS<sup>®</sup> were implemented, the Technology Select Sector Index was designed to measure the performance of the companies assigned to the GICS<sup>®</sup> Information Technology sector and Telecommunication Services sector. As of the close of business on September 21, 2018, S&P and MSCI, Inc. updated the GICS<sup>®</sup> structure, which changes were effective for the Technology Select Sector Index as of the open of business on September 24, 2018. Among other things, the update broadened the Telecommunications Services sector and renamed it the Communication Services sector. The renamed sector includes the previously existing Telecommunication Services Industry group, as well as the Media Industry group, which was moved from the Consumer Discretionary sector and renamed the Media & Entertainment Industry group. The Media & Entertainment Industry group contains three industries: Media, Entertainment and Interactive Media & Services. The Entertainment industry contains the Movies & Entertainment sub-industry (which includes online entertainment streaming companies in addition to companies previously classified in such industry prior to September 21, 2018) and the Interactive Home Entertainment sub-industry (which includes companies previously classified in the Home Entertainment Software sub-industry prior to September 21, 2018 (when the Home Entertainment Software sub-industry was a sub-industry in the Information Technology sector)), as well as producers of interactive gaming products, including mobile gaming applications).

As a result of the above changes, certain companies from the Information Technology sector or the former Telecommunication Services sector were reclassified under the new Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector. For example, due to the reclassification, Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook Inc.), Alphabet Inc., Verizon Communications Inc., AT&T Inc., Activision Blizzard Inc., Electronic Arts Inc., Twitter Inc., Centurylink Inc. and Take-Two Interactive Software were moved from the Technology Select Sector Index to the Communication Services Select Sector Index, and eBay Inc. was moved from the Technology Select Sector Index to the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector Index. After the changes to GICS<sup>®</sup> were implemented, the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund liquidated a number of its holdings to reflect the above sector reclassifications. Prior to the removal of these companies during the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund's rebalancing in September 2018, such companies represented a significant percentage (more than 25%) of the net asset value of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund. In particular, over 17% of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund was invested in just three of the above stocks prior to their removal— Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook Inc.), Alphabet Inc. Class C and Alphabet Inc. Class A.

The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund now tracks the performance of only those companies that remain in the Technology Select Sector Index following its reconstitution, which excludes those companies that have been reclassified under the new Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector. It is possible that the stocks removed from the Technology Select Sector Index will perform better than the reconstituted Technology Select Sector Index, in which case the performance of your notes will be less than if the Technology Select Sector Index (and the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund) had not been affected by the GICS updates. Consequently, this change could adversely affect the performance of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund over the term of the notes and, in turn, the return of the notes.

#### Limited Historical Information is Available Regarding the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund's Performance Subsequent to the Recent Changes to its Holdings
The Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund tracks the performance of the Technology Select Sector Index, which was reconstituted on September 24, 2018. Prior to the reconstitution of the underlying index, the Technology Select Sector Index was designed to measure the performance of companies assigned to the Information Technology sector and the former Telecommunication Services sector. The reconstituted Technology Select Sector Index now measures the performance of the companies assigned to the Information Technology sector. Moreover, a number of companies from the Information Technology sector were reclassified under the new Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector and consequently removed from the Technology Select Sector Index and the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund. As a result, the performance of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund prior to its reconstitution in September 2018 might have been

------

meaningfully different had it tracked the reconstituted Technology Select Sector Index at that time. As a result, limited historical underlier performance information will be available for you to consider in making an independent investigation of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund performance, which may make it difficult for you to make an informed decision with respect to the notes.

#### Risks Related to Tax
**The Tax Treatment of Your Notes is Uncertain. However, It Would be Reasonable To Treat Your Notes as Variable Rate Debt Instruments for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes**

The tax treatment of your notes is uncertain. However, it would be reasonable to treat your notes as variable rate debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the issuer expects to so treat the notes. Under those rules, you generally will be required to account for coupons on the notes in the manner described under "Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" below. If you are a secondary purchaser of the notes, the tax consequences to you may be different. Please see "Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" below for a more detailed discussion. Please also consult your tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax and any other applicable tax consequences to you of owning your notes in your particular circumstances.

#### Your Notes May Be Subject to the Constructive Ownership Rules
There exists a risk that the constructive ownership rules of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code could apply to your notes. If your notes were subject to the constructive ownership rules, then any long-term capital gain that you realize upon the sale, exchange or maturity of your notes would be re-characterized as ordinary income (and you would be subject to an interest charge on deferred tax liability with respect to such re-characterized capital gain) to the extent that such capital gain exceeds the amount of "net underlying long-term capital gain" (as defined in Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code). Because the application of the constructive ownership rules is unclear you are strongly urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the possible application of the constructive ownership rules to your investment in the notes.

**Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding May Apply to Payments on Your Notes, Including as a Result of the Failure of the Bank or Broker Through Which You Hold the Notes to Provide Information to Tax Authorities**

Please see the discussion under "United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding" in the accompanying prospectus for a description of the applicability of FATCA to payments made on your notes.

**The Underliers**<br>

#### SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF
The SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF seeks investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index. The investment advisor of the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF uses a representative sampling strategy to attempt to track the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index, which means that the underlier may purchase a subset of the securities in the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index in an effort to hold a portfolio of securities with generally the same risk and return characteristics of the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index.

The S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index is a modified equal-weighted index that is designed to measure the performance of stocks in the S&P Total Market Index that both (i) are classified under the Global Industry Classification Standard in the biotechnology sub-industry and (ii) satisfy certain liquidity and market capitalization requirements. For more details about the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF, the investment advisor and the underlying index, see "The Underliers — SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Biotech ETF" on page S-161 of the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33.

"SPDR<sup>®</sup>" is a registered trademark of Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC ("S&P") and Dow Jones is a registered trademark of Dow Jones Trademark Holdings LLC ("Dow Jones") and have been licensed for use by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC. The offered notes are not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, Dow Jones, S&P or their respective affiliates, and neither S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, Dow Jones, S&P or their respective affiliates make any representation regarding the advisability of investing in the offered notes.

#### Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund
The shares of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund (the "ETF") are issued by a series of the Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Trust, a registered investment company. The ETF seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before expenses, of the Technology Select Sector Index ("the index"). The ETF trades on the NYSE Arca under the ticker symbol "XLK". SSGA Funds Management, Inc. ("SSGA") currently serves as the investment advisor to the ETF. SSGA employs a replication strategy in seeking to track the index as described under "Replication Strategy" below. **The index was reconstituted in September 2018. See "Technology Select Sector Index" below.**

We obtained the following fee information from the SPDR<sup>®</sup> website, without independent verification. The investment advisor is entitled to receive a management fee from the ETF based on a percentage of the ETF's average daily net assets, at an annual rate of 0.03%. In addition, the ETF has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan pursuant to which payments of up to 0.02% of average daily net assets may be made. The ETF also incurs other operating expenses up to an annual rate of 0.05%. As of December 31, 2022, the gross expense ratio of the ETF was 0.10% per annum.

For additional information regarding the Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Trust or SSGA, please consult the reports (including the Annual Report to Shareholders on Form N-CSR for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022) and other information SPDR<sup>®</sup> Series Trust files with the SEC. In addition, information regarding the ETF (including the top ten holdings) may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles, other publicly available documents, and the SPDR<sup>®</sup> website at spdrs.com. We are not incorporating by reference the website, the sources listed above or any material they include in this pricing supplement. We have obtained all information about the ETF from the SPDR<sup>®</sup> website without independent verification.

#### Investment Objective and Strategy
The ETF seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of publicly traded equity securities of companies in the Technology Select Sector Index, which is comprised of companies in the Information Technology sector. SSGA uses a replication strategy to try to achieve the ETF's investment objective, which means that the ETF generally invests in substantially all of the securities represented in the index it tracks in approximately the same proportions as the index. In certain situations or market conditions, the ETF may temporarily depart from its normal investment policies and strategies provided that the alternative is consistent with the ETF's investment objective and is in the best interest of the ETF. For example, if the ETF is unable to invest directly in a

------

component security or if a derivative investment may provide higher liquidity than other types of investments, it may make larger than normal investments in derivatives to maintain exposure to the index that it tracks. Consequently, under such circumstances, such ETF may invest in a different mix of investments than it would under normal circumstances. The ETF is managed with an indexing investment strategy, attempting to track the performance of an unmanaged index of securities, regardless of the current or projected performance of the index or of the actual securities comprising the index. This differs from an actively managed ETF, which typically seeks to outperform a benchmark index. The ETF's performance may be less favorable than that of a portfolio managed using an active investment strategy. The structure and composition of the index will affect the performance, volatility and risk of the index and consequently, the performance, volatility and risk of the ETF.

The ETF's investment strategy and other policies may be changed without shareholder approval.

Notwithstanding the ETF's investment objective, the return on your notes will not reflect any dividends paid on the ETF shares, on the securities purchased by the ETF or on the securities that comprise the index.

#### Holdings with Weights Equal to or in Excess of 20% of the Technology Select Sector SPDR<sup>®</sup> Fund as of March 9, 2023
Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corporation are registered under the Exchange Act. Companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act are required to file financial and other information specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") periodically. Information filed by these underlier stock issuers with the SEC electronically can be reviewed through a website maintained by the SEC. The address of the SEC's website is sec.gov. Information filed with the SEC by each of the above-referenced underlier stock issuers under the Exchange Act can be located by referencing its SEC file number specified below.

The graphs below, except where otherwise indicated, show the daily historical closing prices of Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corporation from January 1, 2018 through March 9, 2023, adjusted for corporate events, if applicable. We obtained the prices in the graphs below using data from Bloomberg Financial Services, without independent verification. We have taken the descriptions of the underlier stock issuers set forth below from publicly available information without independent verification.

#### Replication Strategy
The ETF uses a replication strategy to attempt to track the performance of the index. This strategy involves investing in substantially all of the securities represented in the index in approximately the same proportions as the index. Under normal market conditions, the ETF generally invests substantially all, but at least 95%, of its total assets in the securities comprising the index. The ETF will provide shareholders with at least 60 days notice prior to any material change in this 95% investment policy. Also, the ETF may lend securities representing up to 40% of the value of the ETF's net assets.

#### Correlation
Although SSGA seeks to track the performance of the index (i.e., achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the index), the ETF's return may not match the return of the index. The ETF incurs a number of operating expenses not applicable to the index and incurs costs in buying and selling securities. In addition, the ETF may not be fully invested at times, generally as a result of cash flows into or out of the ETF or reserves of cash held by the ETF to meet redemptions.

#### Industry Concentration Policy
The ETF's assets will generally be concentrated in an industry or group of industries to the extent that the index concentrates in a particular industry or group of industries. By concentrating its assets in a single industry or group of industries, the ETF is subject to the risk that financial, economic, business or other conditions that have a negative effect on that industry or group of industries will negatively impact the ETF to a greater extent than if the ETF's assets were invested in a wider variety of industries.

The ETF is non-diversified and may invest a larger percentage of its assets in securities of a few issuers or a single issuer than a diversified ETF. As a result, the ETF's performance may be disproportionately impacted by the performance of relatively few securities.

#### Creation Units
Prior to trading in the secondary market, shares of the ETF are issued at net asset value to certain institutional investors (typically market makers or other broker-dealers) only in block-size units, known as creation units, of 50,000 shares or multiples thereof. As a practical matter, only institutions, market makers or large investors purchase or redeem creation units. The principal consideration for a specified number of creation units (which may be revised at any time without notice) is a basket of securities and/or cash that constitutes a substantial replication, or a representation, of the securities included in the index. Except when aggregated in creation units (or upon the liquidation of the ETF), shares of the ETF are not redeemable securities. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient liquidity in the public trading market at any time to permit assembly of a creation unit.

#### Share Prices and the Secondary Market
The trading prices of the ETF's shares will fluctuate continuously throughout trading hours based on market supply and demand rather than the ETF's net asset value, which is calculated at the end of each business day. The trading price of the ETF's shares may deviate significantly from its net asset value during periods of market volatility.

#### Technology Select Sector Index
The Technology Select Sector Index (Bloomberg symbol, "IXT Index"), which we refer to as the index, is comprised of the constituents of the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index that are assigned to the Global Industry Classification Standard ("GICS<sup>®</sup>") Information Technology sector. The S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index includes a representative sample of 500 companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy. The index and the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index are calculated, maintained and published by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC ("S&P"). Additional information about the Technology Select Sector Index and the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index is available on the following websites: us.spindices.com/indices/equity/technology-select-sector-index and us.spindices.com/indices/equity/sp-500. We are not incorporating by reference the websites or any material they include in this pricing supplement. We have obtained all information about the index from the S&P website without independent verification.

------

S&P and MSCI Inc. ("MSCI") jointly developed the GICS<sup>®</sup> in 1999 to establish a global standard for categorizing companies into sectors and industries. The GICS<sup>®</sup> classifies companies into four levels of detail: 11 sectors, 24 industry groups, 69 industries and 158 sub-industries. The eleven GICS<sup>®</sup> sectors are: Communication Services, Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, Energy, Financials, Health Care, Industrials, Information Technology, Materials, Real Estate, and Utilities. GICS<sup>®</sup> was designed to classify a company according to its principal business activity. To make this determination, S&P and MSCI use revenues as a key measure of a company's business activity. Earnings and market perception, however, are also recognized as important and relevant information for classification purposes and are taken into account during the review process. A company's classification is reviewed annually at a minimum, and companies are under constant surveillance for corporate actions. The GICS<sup>®</sup> methodology itself is reviewed annually for changes or additions to the four classification levels.

As of the close of business on September 21, 2018, S&P and MSCI, Inc. updated the GICS<sup>®</sup> structure. Among other things, the update broadened the Telecommunications Services sector and renamed it the Communication Services sector. The renamed sector includes the previously existing Telecommunication Services Industry group, as well as the Media Industry group, which was moved from the Consumer Discretionary sector and renamed the Media & Entertainment Industry group. The Media & Entertainment Industry group contains three industries: Media, Entertainment and Interactive Media & Services. The Media industry continues to consist of the Advertising, Broadcasting, Cable & Satellite and Publishing sub-industries. The Entertainment industry contains the Movies & Entertainment sub-industry (which includes online entertainment streaming companies in addition to companies previously classified in such industry prior to September 21, 2018) and the Interactive Home Entertainment sub-industry (which includes companies previously classified in the Home Entertainment Software sub-industry prior to September 21, 2018 (when the Home Entertainment Software sub-industry was a sub-industry in the Information Technology sector)), as well as producers of interactive gaming products, including mobile gaming applications). The Interactive Media & Services industry and sub-industry includes companies engaged in content and information creation or distribution through proprietary platforms, where revenues are derived primarily through pay-per-click advertisements, and includes search engines, social media and networking platforms, online classifieds and online review companies. The Global Industry Classification Sector structure changes were effective for the Technology Select Sector Index as of the open of business on September 24, 2018 to coincide with the September 2018 quarterly rebalancing. As a result of the above changes, certain companies from the Information Technology sector or the former Telecommunication Services sector were reclassified under the new Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector. For example, due to the reclassification, Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook Inc.), Alphabet Inc., Verizon Communications Inc., AT&T Inc., Activision Blizzard Inc., Electronic Arts Inc., Twitter Inc., Centurylink Inc. and Take-Two Interactive Software were moved from the Technology Select Sector Index to the Communication Services Select Sector Index, and eBay Inc. was moved from the Technology Select Sector Index to the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector Index.

S&P rebalances the index quarterly after the close of business on the third Friday of March, June, September and December (each, a "rebalancing effective date"). With prices reflected on the second Friday of March, June, September and December, adjusted for any applicable corporate actions, and membership, shares outstanding and investable weight factors as of the rebalancing effective date, each company is weighted by float-adjusted market capitalization. Modifications to the float-adjusted market capitalization of constituent stocks are made as follows.

If any company has a float-adjusted market capitalization weight greater than 24%, S&P caps that company's weight at 23%. S&P sets the cap to 23% to allow for a 2% buffer to mitigate against any stock exceeding 25% as of the rebalancing effective date. S&P redistributes all excess weight equally to all uncapped stocks within the index. After this redistribution, if the float-adjusted market capitalization weight of any other stock(s) then breaches 23%, S&P repeats the process iteratively until no stock breaches the 23% weight cap. The sum of the stocks with weight greater than 4.8% cannot exceed 50% of the total index weight. If the rule in the preceding sentence is breached, then S&P ranks all the stocks in descending order of their float-adjusted market capitalization weights and the first stock that causes the 50% limit to be breached is identified. S&P then reduces the weight of that stock to 4.5%. S&P then redistributes the excess weight proportionally to all stocks with weights below 4.5% and the process is repeated iteratively until the 50% test above is satisfied. As part of the rebalancing process, S&P assigns

------

index share amounts to each constituent stock to arrive at the weights calculated above. Since index shares are assigned based on prices one week prior to rebalancing, the actual weight of each stock at the rebalancing differs somewhat from these weights due to market movements. If, on the second to last business day of March, June, September or December, a company has a weight greater than 24% or the sum of the companies with weights greater than 4.8% exceeds 50%, a secondary rebalancing will be triggered with the rebalancing effective date being after the close of the last business day of the month. This secondary rebalancing will use the closing prices as of the second to last business day of March, June, September or December, and membership, shares outstanding and IWFs as of the rebalancing effective date.

Except for the rebalancing process described above and the total return process described below, the index is calculated and maintained on the same basis as the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index, which is described beginning on page S-106 of the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33.

The ETF tracks the performance of the total return version of the index. A total return index represents the total return earned in a portfolio that tracks the price index and reinvests dividend income in the overall index, not in the specific stock paying the dividend. The difference between the price return calculation and the total return calculation is that, with respect to the price return calculation, changes in the index level reflect changes in stock prices, whereas with respect to the total return calculation of the index, changes in the index level reflect both movements in stock prices and the reinvestment of dividend income. Notwithstanding the ETF's investment objective, the return on your notes will not reflect any dividends paid on the ETF shares, on the securities purchased by the ETF or on the securities that comprise the index.

Once the price return index has been calculated, the total return index is calculated. First, the total daily dividend for each stock in the index is calculated by multiplying the per share dividend by the number of shares included in the index. Then the index dividend is calculated by aggregating the total daily dividends for each of the index stocks (which may be zero for some stocks) and dividing by the divisor for that day. Next the daily total return of the index is calculated as a fraction minus 1, the numerator of which is the sum of the index level plus the index dividend and the denominator of which is the index level on the previous day. Finally, the total return index for that day is calculated as the product of the value of the total return index on the previous day times the sum of 1 plus the index daily total return for that day.

*Historical Performance of the Technology Select Sector Index*

![](gkyajhexrlrk000006.jpg)

\* We are not providing the historical closing levels of the Technology Select Sector Index prior to September 24, 2018, the date GICS<sup>®</sup> structure changes were effective for the Technology Select Sector Index. Before the changes to GICS<sup>®</sup> were implemented, the Technology Select Sector Index was designed to measure the performance of the companies assigned to the Information Technology sector and Telecommunication Services sector. After the changes to GICS<sup>®</sup> were implemented, the Technology Select Sector Index was reconstituted so that it now measures the performance of the companies assigned to the Information Technology sector. Moreover, a number of companies from the Information Technology sector were reclassified under the new Communication Services sector or the Consumer Discretionary sector and consequently removed from the Technology Select Sector Index. As a result, the performance of the Technology Select Sector Index prior to its reconstitution might have been meaningfully different.

**Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences**<br>

The following section supplements the discussion of U.S. federal income taxation in the accompanying prospectus.

The following section is the opinion of Sidley Austin llp, counsel to GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. In addition, it is the opinion of Sidley Austin llp that the characterization of the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes that will be required under the terms of the notes, as discussed below, is a reasonable interpretation of current law.

This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a class of holders subject to special rules, such as:

• a dealer in securities or currencies;

• a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings;

• a bank;

• a life insurance company;

• a regulated investment company;

• an accrual method taxpayer subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of its use of financial statements;

• a tax exempt organization;

• a partnership;

• a person that owns a note as a hedge or that is hedged against interest rate risks;

• a person that owns a note as part of a straddle or conversion transaction for tax purposes; or

• a United States holder (as defined below) whose functional currency for tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar.

Although this section is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations under the Internal Revenue Code, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect, no statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how your notes should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and as a result, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in your notes are uncertain. Moreover, these laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

*You should consult your tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax and other tax consequences of your investment in the notes, including the application of state, local or other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal or other tax laws.*<br>

#### United States Holders
This section applies to you only if you are a United States holder that holds your notes as a capital asset for tax purposes. You are a United States holder if you are a beneficial owner of a note and you are:

• a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a domestic corporation;

• an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

*Tax Treatment. The tax treatment of your notes is uncertain. The tax treatment of your notes will depend upon whether the notes are properly treated as variable rate debt instruments or contingent payment debt instruments. This in turn depends, in part, upon whether it is reasonably expected that the return on the notes during the first half of the notes' term will be significantly greater or less than the return on the notes during the second half of the notes' term. Based on our numerical analysis, we expect to take the position that it is not reasonably expected that the return on the notes during the first half of the notes' term will be significantly greater or less than the return on the notes during the second half of the notes' term. We accordingly expect to treat your notes as variable rate debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes.* 

Based on market conditions on the trade date, we may take the position that it is reasonably expected that the return on the notes during the first half of the notes term will be significantly greater or less than the return on the notes during the second half of the notes term. In this case, we would treat your notes as contingent payment debt instruments, as discussed below under "Alternative Treatments". We will make a final determination as to the manner in which we intend to treat the notes on the trade date based on market conditions in effect at such time. The final prospectus supplement will set forth the manner in which we intend to treat the notes for tax purposes.

Except as otherwise noted below under "Alternative Treatments," the discussion below assumes that the notes will be treated as variable debt instruments for tax purposes. Under this characterization, you should include the coupon payments on the notes in ordinary income at the time you receive or accrue such payments, depending on your regular method of accounting for tax purposes.

In addition, the constructive ownership rules of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code could possibly apply to your notes. If your notes were subject to the constructive ownership rules, then any long-term capital gain that you realize upon the sale, exchange, or maturity of your notes would be re-characterized as ordinary income (and you would be subject to an interest charge on deferred tax liability with respect to such re-characterized capital gain) to the extent that such capital gain exceeds the amount of "net underlying long-term capital gain" (as defined in Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code). Because the application of the constructive ownership rules is unclear you are strongly urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the possible application of the constructive ownership rules to your investment in the notes.

**Our determination that it is not reasonably expected that the return on your notes during the first half of the notes' term will be significantly greater or less than the return on your notes during the second half of the notes' term is made solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and is not a prediction or guarantee as to whether the return on the notes during the first half of the notes' term will or will not be significantly greater or less than the return on the notes during the second half of the notes' term.**

You will generally recognize gain or loss upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your notes in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash you receive at such time (other than amounts representing accrued and unpaid interest, which will be taxable as such) and your adjusted basis in your notes. See the discussion under "United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — United States Holders — Purchase, Sale and Retirement of the Debt Securities" in the accompanying prospectus for more information.

------

If you purchase the notes at a discount to the principal amount of the notes, you may be subject to the rules governing market discount as described under "United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — United States Holders — Market Discount" in the accompanying prospectus. If you purchase the notes at a premium to the principal amount of the notes, you will be subject to the rules governing premium as described under "United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — United States Holders — Debt Securities Purchased at a Premium" in the accompanying prospectus.

*Alternative Treatments. If it is determined that it is reasonably expected that the return on the notes during the first half of the notes' term will be significantly greater or less than the return on the notes during the second half of the notes' term, the notes should be treated as a debt instrument subject to special rules governing contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the notes are so treated, you would be required to accrue interest income over the term of your notes based upon the yield at which we would issue a non-contingent fixed-rate debt instrument with other terms and conditions similar to your notes. In addition, you would be required to construct a projected payment schedule for the notes and you would make a "positive adjustment" to the extent of any excess of an actual payment over the corresponding projected payment under the notes, and you would make a "negative adjustment" to the extent of the excess of any projected payment over the corresponding actual payment under the notes. You would recognize gain or loss upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your notes in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount you receive at such time and your adjusted tax basis in your notes. Any gain you recognize upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your notes would be treated as ordinary income and any loss recognized by you at such time would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent of interest you included in income in the current or previous taxable years in respect of your notes, and, thereafter, as capital loss.*

It is also possible that the Internal Revenue Service could determine that the notes should be subject to special rules for notes that provide for alternative payment schedules if one of such schedules is significantly more likely than not to occur. If your notes are subject to those rules, you would generally be required to include the stated interest on your notes in income as it accrues even if you are otherwise subject to the cash basis method of accounting for tax purposes. The rules for notes that provide alternative payment schedules if one of such schedules is significantly more likely than not to occur are discussed under "United States Taxation—United States Holders—Original Issue Discount—Debt Securities Subject to Contingencies Including Optional Redemption" in the accompanying prospectus.

You should consult your tax advisor as to the possible alternative treatments in respect of the notes.

#### Non-United States Holders
If you are a non-United States holder, please see the discussion under "United States Taxation —Taxation of Debt Securities — Non-United States Holders" in the accompanying prospectus for a description of the tax consequences relevant to you. You are a non-United States holder if you are the beneficial owner of the notes and are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

• a nonresident alien individual;

• a foreign corporation; or

• an estate or trust that in either case is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis on income or gain from the notes.

The Treasury Department has issued regulations under which amounts paid or deemed paid on certain financial instruments ("871(m) financial instruments") that are treated as attributable to U.S.-source dividends could be treated, in whole or in part depending on the circumstances, as a "dividend equivalent" payment that is subject to tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower rate under an applicable treaty), which in the case of any coupon payments and any amounts you receive upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your notes, could be collected via withholding. If these regulations were to apply to the notes, we may be required to withhold such taxes if any U.S.-source dividends are paid on the underliers during the term of the notes. We could also require you to make certifications (e.g., an applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8) prior to any coupon payment or the maturity of the notes in order to avoid or minimize withholding obligations, and we could withhold accordingly (subject to your potential right to

------

claim a refund from the Internal Revenue Service) if such certifications were not received or were not satisfactory. If withholding was required, we would not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld. These regulations generally will apply to 871(m) financial instruments (or a combination of financial instruments treated as having been entered into in connection with each other) issued (or significantly modified and treated as retired and reissued) on or after January 1, 2025, but will also apply to certain 871(m) financial instruments (or a combination of financial instruments treated as having been entered into in connection with each other) that have a delta (as defined in the applicable Treasury regulations) of one and are issued (or significantly modified and treated as retired and reissued) on or after January 1, 2017. In addition, these regulations will not apply to financial instruments that reference a "qualified index" (as defined in the regulations). We have determined that, as of the issue date of your notes, your notes will not be subject to withholding under these rules. In certain limited circumstances, however, you should be aware that it is possible for non-United States holders to be liable for tax under these rules with respect to a combination of transactions treated as having been entered into in connection with each other even when no withholding is required. You should consult your tax advisor concerning these regulations, subsequent official guidance and regarding any other possible alternative characterizations of your notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

#### Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding
Pursuant to Treasury regulations, Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) withholding (as described in "United States Taxation—Taxation of Debt Securities—Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding" in the accompanying prospectus) will generally apply to obligations that are issued on or after July 1, 2014; therefore, the notes will generally be subject to the FATCA withholding rules.

#### Supplemental plan of distribution; conflicts of interest
See "Supplemental Plan of Distribution" on page S-51 of the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999 and "Plan of Distribution — Conflicts of Interest" on page 127 of the accompanying prospectus. GS Finance Corp. estimates that its share of the total offering expenses, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $.

GS Finance Corp. will sell to GS&Co., and GS&Co. will purchase from GS Finance Corp., the aggregate face amount of the offered notes specified on the front cover of this pricing supplement. GS&Co. proposes initially to offer the notes to the public at the original issue price set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement, and to certain securities dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of % of the face amount. The original issue price for notes purchased by certain retirement accounts and certain fee-based advisory accounts will be % of the face amount of the notes, which will reduce the underwriting discount specified on the cover of this pricing supplement with respect to such notes to %. GS&Co. is an affiliate of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and, as such, will have a "conflict of interest" in this offering of notes within the meaning of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) Rule 5121. Consequently, this offering of notes will be conducted in compliance with the provisions of FINRA Rule 5121. GS&Co. will not be permitted to sell notes in this offering to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of the account holder. We have been advised that GS&Co. will also pay a fee in connection with the distribution of the notes to SIMON Markets LLC, a broker-dealer in which an affiliate of GS Finance Corp. holds an indirect minority equity interest.

We expect to deliver the notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on March 22, 2023. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior to two business days before delivery will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

We have been advised by GS&Co. that it intends to make a market in the notes. However, neither GS&Co. nor any of our other affiliates that makes a market is obligated to do so and any of them may stop doing so at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity or trading market for the notes.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system.
