Fitch: Kabel Deutschland unaffected

Fitch Ratings said that Kabel Deutschland's acquisition of 1.2 million of Orion's cable television subscribers is likely to have a neutral impact on its issuer default rating, but that it is likely to improve the company's business profile. The company's existing senior secured rating is BB+.

Kabel Deutschland Vertrieb und Service GmbH & Co's long-term issuer default rating is currently BB-, senior notes are rated BB- and the company has a stable outlook.

Given the lack of information on the acquisition and financing, Fitch said it is also too early to predict the potential impact on its instruments' ratings.
