XPO Logistics

Moody’s has raised XPO’s corporate family rating from Ba2 to Ba1 and changed the outlook from “positive” to “stable,” citing sustained margin expansion, stronger earnings and improved credit metrics. Senior secured bank facilities and notes were upgraded to Baa3, unsecured notes to Ba2, and the liquidity rating to SGL-1. XPO reported roughly 10% revenue growth in the first half of 2026, a reduction in adjusted leverage to about 2.8x, and Moody’s sees further debt‑reduction potential (2.6x in 2026, ~2.2x in 2027). Liquidity is supported by revolving credit lines, letter‑of‑credit facilities and cash; a possible sale of the European transport platform could accelerate deleveraging. » Altro su de.investing.com
