Fitch affirms Transtelecom

Fitch Ratings said it affirmed CJSC Transtelecom Co.'s foreign and local currency long-term issuer default ratings at B+.

The outlook is stable.

The company’s senior unsecured debt was affirmed at B+/RR4.

The short-term issuer default rating was affirmed at B.

“The company's ratings benefit from the established positions in the inter-operator segment and improved positions in the broadband segment as a fifth-largest operator in Russia by subscribers,” Fitch said in a news release.

“Compared with the Russian mobile operators PJSC Mobile TeleSystems (BB+/negative), PJSC MegaFon (BB+/stable) and VEON Ltd (BB+/positive) and the fixed-line telecoms incumbent operator Rostelecom (BBB-/stable), TTK has smaller scale and a weaker competitive position in the retail segment.”
