S&P gives L Brands notes BB+

S&P said it assigned its BB+ issue-level rating to L Brands Inc.'s proposed $700 million senior notes due 2027.

The 3 recovery rating indicates an expectation of meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 65%) recovery in the event of payment default.

All of the existing ratings on the company, including the BB+ corporate credit rating, are unchanged.

The outlook is stable.

L Brands intends to use the net proceeds from the proposed notes along with cash on hand to fund a tender offer, redeem existing notes and pay related transaction fees and expenses.

“We forecast credit metrics will be weak but still within ranges consistent for the ratings, with adjusted debt-to-EBITDA of about 3x this year,” S&P said in a news release.
