Moody's cuts Sumitomo Chemical

Moody's Japan K.K. said it downgraded Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.'s long-term issuer rating to Baa2 from Baa1.

The outlook is stable.

Moody's said the downgrade reflects its concerns that a reduction in the company's current high leverage may take longer than previously expected.
