S&P affirms WireCo, cuts notes

Standard & Poor's said it affirmed its B+ corporate credit rating on WireCo WorldGroup.

The outlook is stable.

At the same time, the agency said it affirmed its BB issue-level rating on the $65 million add-on to the second-lien term loan due 2014. The recovery rating remains a 1.

In addition, the agency said it lowered its issue-level rating on the company's $275 million of senior unsecured notes due 2017 to B- from B. The recovery rating is revised to 6 from 5.

The company plans to use proceeds from the term loan add-on to pursue near term strategic initiatives, which could include additional acquisitions, S&P added.
