S&P gives VM Ireland, loan B+

S&P said it gave VM Ireland Ltd. and its €900 million equivalent term loan B+ ratings.

“The issuance was done as part of the carve-out of VM Ireland from VMED following the merger between VMED and Telefonica UK. VM Ireland now operates as a stand-alone entity and borrower within the Liberty Global group. The €900 million term loan included refinancing of the company's €35 million vendor financing facilities, with the remaining adjusted debt mainly comprising operating lease liabilities and a small pension deficit. We forecast stable adjusted EBITDA of about €170 million in 2021, translating into adjusted debt to EBITDA of about 5.4x,” S&P said in a press release.

The outlook is stable.
