S&P shifts Anheuser-Busch InBev view to stable

S&P said it revised the outlook for Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV to stable from negative and affirmed the A- rating.

“The stable outlook reflects our view that, thanks to about $16 billion of proceeds from already announced sales of assets and about $4.5 billion lower dividend payment, ABI’s financial metrics will strengthen and the leverage ratio will be below 4x already in 2019 pro forma the payment for the sale of the Australian subsidiary,” said S&P in a press release.
