Moody's gives Anheuser-Busch notes A2

Moody's Investors Service said it assigned an A2 rating to the notes that were launched by Anheuser-Busch InBev NV/SA and its rated subsidiaries.

The outlook remains positive.

All other ratings remain unchanged.

Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

Moody's said Anheuser-Busch's A2/Prime-1 ratings reflect the company's position as the world's largest brewer, its wide portfolio of brands at various price points, and its leading positions in some of the largest and most profitable beer markets in the world.

It also reflects Anheuser-Busch's seasoned management with a solid track record of integrating acquisitions, as well as improving efficiencies and Moody's expectation that the company will reduce leverage over the medium-term.
