Moody’s has affirmed Intrum’s corporate rating at Caa2 and upgraded the outlook from stable to positive, supported by a lower leverage following buybacks of 2.0-lien notes as well as stable cash EBITDA and solid cash flows in 2025. Moody’s also affirmed ratings for secured liabilities (Caa3 for 2.0-lien and B3 for 1.5-lien new money). Intrum plans further deleveraging in H1 2026 through the sale of a debt portfolio and repayment of maturing 2.0-lien notes, subject to approval. Constraining factors remain significant negative cash flows from financing activities, high indebtedness and a material equity deficit; sustained improvements in earnings, cash flow and net debt would allow for upward movement. » Mere på de.investing.com
