S&P cuts Six Flags convertibles

Standard & Poor's said it lowered its issue-level rating on Six Flags Inc.'s 4.5% convertible senior notes due 2015 to D from CC, reflecting the company's failure to make its May 15 interest payment.

In addition, the agency said it raised the issue-level rating on Six Flags' 9.75% senior notes to C from D, and lowered the issue-level rating on the company's 8.875% senior notes due 2010 and 9.625% senior notes due 2014 to C from CC.

According to S&P, the corporate credit rating on the company remains at D.

The agency added that a default has not occurred relative to the legal provision of the 4.5% convertible notes, since there is a 30-day grace period to make the payment.
