segnalo un trentennale della apple, US037833DQ02, che ha una cedola da barboni ma che si compra intorno ai 95. Potrebbe in un futuro prossimo salire abbastanza e dare un buon gain.

Kraft Heinz Foods Co. Proposed Senior Unsecured Notes Rated 'BBB-'

CHICAGO (S&P Global Ratings) Sept. 11, 2019--S&P Global Ratings today assigned its 'BBB-' rating to Pittsburgh- and Chicago-based The Kraft Heinz Co.'s proposed senior unsecured notes, which are being offered to qualified institutional buyers under rule 144A with registration rights.

The proposed notes will be issued by the group's primary operating subsidiary, Kraft Heinz Foods Co., and guaranteed by parent The Kraft Heinz Co. The proposed notes rank equally with Kraft Heinz Foods' existing senior unsecured notes, which constitute a substantial majority of the group's approximately $31.1 billion reported debt outstanding as of June 29, 2019.

The company intends to use the net proceeds from this transaction, together with cash on hand, to fund the recently announced redemption and tender offers in a transaction that is neutral to S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage, which is in the high-4x area.

All of our existing ratings, including our 'BBB-' issuer credit rating and negative outlook, are unchanged.

Kraft Heinz Co. reported weaker than expected first-half results and leverage is high for the rating category. Assuming 2019 and 2020 EBITDA are not substantially below our expectations, we intend to provide management time to complete its strategic review and embark on a turnaround plan geared toward stabilizing the business and improving credit ratios in line with our expectations for maintaining the rating. Our negative outlook on the issuer credit rating reflects the potential that management may not be able to stabilize the business and that leverage will remain at current levels or rise. We could lower the rating to speculative-grade if we believe Kraft Heinz cannot reduce adjusted leverage below 4x by mid-2021. This could occur if EBITDA drops meaningfully below our recently reduced expectations, which include $6.05 billion reported EBITDA in 2019, compared to $6.4 billion previously, and we come to believe the strategic plan to be announced by the new CEO in early 2020 will be unsuccessful.
 
Su TLX di interessante in euro avrei trovato Banca Pop Sondrio XS2034847637, TEVA 2023, Bormioli XS1713858576, CASINO FR0012074284 e poi JAGUAR purtroppo tutte taglio 100k e quindi molto indeciso quali ritenete meno rischiose ?
 

Caterpillar Inc.'s Proposed Senior Unsecured Notes Rated 'A'

NEW YORK (S&P Global Ratings) Sept. 16, 2019--S&P Global Ratings today assigned its 'A' issue-level rating to Deerfield, Ill.-based Caterpillar Inc.'s (A/Stable/A-1) proposed senior unsecured notes. We expect the company will issue the notes in two tranches of 10-year and 30-year maturities. The notes will rank equally with all of Caterpillar's existing and future unsecured obligations. We expect Caterpillar will use the proceeds of this issuance to fund discretionary pension contributions to its U.S. pension plans. This transaction does not have a material impact on the company's credit measures.

Our ratings on Caterpillar reflect its strong market position as the world's largest construction and mining equipment manufacturer, and a leading provider of diesel and natural gas engines, industrial gas turbines, and diesel-electric locomotives. The company maintains a broad product line and a global footprint that balances well between mature and higher growth markets. However, manufacturing credit measures can be highly volatile in correlation with the demand cycle.

Our base-case scenario anticipates decelerating sales growth for Caterpillar in 2019 and into 2020, as the global economy slows and trade uncertainties persist. Still, we believe Caterpillar's past restructuring actions and ongoing cost discipline will enable the company to sustain a strong S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA margin of around 20%. Overall, we forecast the company will maintain a funds from operations (FFO)-to-debt ratio well above 60% over the next 12-24 months, which provides the company with a healthy cushion to our 30% downside trigger in the event of a cyclical downturn.
