By Cristal Cody

Tupelo, Miss., Sept. 20 – Lumen Technologies, Inc.’s notes were mixed in light trading on Wednesday as the company faces a slew of issues, including a class-action lawsuit filed at the week’s start.

Lumen’s 7.6% senior notes due 2039 (Caa3/CCC-) rallied 2½ points to around 34 bid as one of the day’s biggest distressed gainers, a source said.

Also Wednesday, Lumen’s 4% senior secured notes due 2027 (Caa2/B) moved down more than ¼ point to a 68 bid handle on $3 million of volume.

Bausch Health Cos. Inc.’s paper was mixed but saw some of the biggest losses over the session, a source reported.

The 8½% senior notes due 2027 (Ca/CCC-) fell around 1¼ points to a 52 bid handle on $3.13 million of trading.

The issuer that was at the top of the attention-getters in fairly quiet distressed secondary action on Wednesday was Altice USA, Inc. subsidiary CSC Holdings, LLC, a source said.

CSC’s 5¾% senior notes due 2030 (Caa2/CCC+) fell about ½ point to a 58 bid handle on more than $10 million of paper traded.

The company’s 4 5/8% senior notes due 2030 (Caa2/CCC+), meanwhile, were up ½ point at 56½ bid on $6 million of volume.
