S&P Global Ratings has raised its outlook for Hitachi from “stable” to “positive” and affirmed the long‑ and short‑term ratings at A and A‑1, respectively. The move is justified by improved competitiveness from a growth‑oriented business portfolio, cross‑industry IT services and an expected increase in EBITDA margins to the mid‑to‑high 16% range. S&P points to a net‑cash position, stronger operating cash flow and disciplined financial policy, and expects a debt/EBITDA ratio of around 1.0. A rating upgrade is seen as possible if the EBITDA margin remains sustainably above 16% and debt/EBITDA stays below 1.5. » Mais em de.investing.com

EMR said it is working with Hitachi Rail to restore reliable operations; investigations continue into a recent incident in which an Aurora stopped on the mainline before being struck by another train. » Mais em theguardian.com
