Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.

Guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.

Autocallable Contingent Coupon Equity Linked Securities Linked to NVIDIA Corporation Due April 2, 2020

Preliminary Terms

Hypothetical Payment at Maturity(1)

Issuer: Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.
Guarantor: Citigroup Inc.
Underlying: NVIDIA Corporation
Pricing date: March 28, 2019
Valuation dates: June 28, 2019, September 30, 2019, December 30, 2019 and March 30, 2020 (the “final valuation date”), each subject to postponement if such date is not a scheduled trading day or certain market disruption events occur
Maturity date: April 2, 2020
Contingent coupon: At least 3.5625% per quarter (at least 14.25% per annum)*, only if the closing value of the underlying on the immediately preceding valuation date is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier value.  You are not assured of receiving any contingent coupon payments on the securities.  
Contingent coupon payment dates: The fifth business day after each valuation date, except that the contingent coupon payment date following the final valuation date will be the maturity date.
Automatic early redemption: If, on any potential autocall date, the closing value of the underlying is greater than or equal to the initial underlying value, each security you then hold will be automatically called on that potential autocall date for redemption on the immediately following contingent coupon payment date for an amount in cash equal to $1,000 plus the related contingent coupon payment.  The automatic early redemption feature may significantly limit your potential return on the securities.  If the underlying performs in a way that would otherwise be favorable, the securities are likely to be automatically called for redemption prior to maturity, cutting short your opportunity to receive contingent coupon payments.  The securities may be automatically called for redemption as early as the first potential autocall date specified below.
Potential autocall dates: Each valuation date beginning in June 2019 and ending in December 2019
Coupon barrier value: 70% of the initial underlying value
Final barrier value: 70% of the initial underlying value
Payment at maturity (if the securities are not earlier automatically redeemed):

If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, you will receive at maturity for each security you then hold:

▪  If the final underlying value is greater than or equal to the final barrier value: $1,000 + the contingent coupon payment due at maturity

▪  If the final underlying value is less than the final barrier value: a fixed number of underlying shares of the underlying equal to the equity ratio (or, if we elect, the cash value of those shares based on the final underlying value)

If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final underlying value is less than the final barrier value, you will receive underlying shares (or, in our sole discretion, cash) expected to be worth significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities, and possibly nothing, at maturity, and you will not receive any contingent coupon payment at maturity. The securities are unsecured debt securities. All payments on the securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc.

Selected Risk Considerations

Additional Information

·     You may lose a significant portion or all of your investment. Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not provide for the repayment of the stated principal amount at maturity in all circumstances. If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final underlying value is less than the final barrier value, you will not receive the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity and, instead, will receive underlying shares of the underlying (or, in our sole discretion, cash based on the value thereof) expected to be worth significantly less than the stated principal amount and may be worth nothing. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities, and you may lose up to all of your investment.

·     You will not receive any contingent coupon on the contingent coupon payment date following any valuation date on which the closing value of the underlying is less than the coupon barrier value.

·     The securities may be automatically redeemed prior to maturity, limiting your opportunity to receive contingent coupon payments.

·     The securities offer downside exposure, but no upside exposure, to the underlying.

·     The securities are particularly sensitive to the volatility of the closing value of the underlying. Whether the contingent coupon will be paid, whether the securities will be automatically redeemed and whether you are repaid your principal at maturity will depend on the closing value of the underlying solely on the applicable valuation dates.

·     The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. defaults on its obligations under the securities and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive anything owed to you under the securities.

·     The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.

·     The estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be less than the issue price. For more information about the estimated value of the securities, see the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.

·     The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors.

·     The issuer and its affiliates may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of its and their affiliates’ business activities.

·     The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear.
