LMIRT’s rating downgraded to ‘C’ by Fitch

The trust’s senior unsecured notes due in 2024 and 2026 have also been downgraded to ‘C’.

Fitch Ratings Singapore has downgraded Lippo Malls Indonesia Retail Trust D5iu's  D5IU (LMIRT) long-term issuer default ratings (IDR) to ‘C’ from ‘CC’.

The trust’s senior unsecured notes due in 2024 and 2026 issued by LMIRT’s subsidiary, LMIRT Capital, have also been downgraded to ‘C’ from ‘CC’ with a recovery rating remaining at ‘RR4’.

The downgrade comes after LMIRT announced, on Jan 25, that the tender offer for its senior unsecured notes due in 2024 and 2026 would proceed.

According to LMIRT, Fitch sees that such a tender offer “constitutes a distressed debt exchange, as the transaction will lead to a material reduction in original terms of the notes and is being conducted to avoid a traditional default”.
