Fitch Affirms ConAgra's IDRs at 'BBB-/F3'; Outlook Revised to Negative
Business Wire - Fri Mar 20, 1:20PM CDT
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Long-term Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) for ConAgra Foods, Inc. (ConAgra) and its subsidiary, Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. (Ralcorp) at 'BBB-' and has affirmed ConAgra's Short-term IDR at 'F3'. The Rating Outlook has been revised to Negative from Stable given slower than expected pace of operating earnings improvement and prolonged volume declines. As a result, Fitch expects that gross leverage (total debt to EBITDA) is likely to be in the mid 3x range for fiscal 2015 and the pace of deleveraging thereafter is uncertain.
