S&P: Sequa on watch

Standard & Poor's said it placed its ratings, including the BB- corporate credit rating, on Sequa Corp. on CreditWatch with negative implications.

The agency said that the CreditWatch placement follows announcement by Sequa that it will be acquired by private equity firm Carlyle Group in a transaction valued at $2.7 billion, including $700 million of debt.

The acquisition, expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2007, is likely to result in a more leveraged capital structure than currently, S&P said.
