S&P lowers Harlan, loan to CCC
Standard & Poor's said it lowered its corporate credit rating on Harlan Laboratories Inc. to CCC from CCC+.
The outlook remains negative.
The agency lowered the rating on the company's senior secured credit facility to CCC (the same as the corporate credit rating) from CCC+. The 3 recovery rating on the company's senior secured credit facilities remains unchanged, reflecting an expectation for meaningful (50%-70%) recovery in the event of payment default.
"Our rating action on Harlan reflects our view that it is increasingly unlikely that the company will be able to execute a debt refinancing prior to the July 2014 term loan maturity because of its current operating performance. On a year-to-date basis, Harlan has experienced double-digit revenue contraction, which is meaningfully weaker than the low-single-digit revenue declines we previously expected," S&P credit analyst Shannan Murphy said in a news release.
