S&P affirms Viesgo Holdco

S&P said it affirmed its BBB-/A-3 long-term and short-term issuer credit ratings on Viesgo Holdco SAU.

The outlook is stable.

The agency said the affirmation follows the announcement that Repsol SA (BBB/stable/A-2) has agreed to buy all of Viesgo Generacion's power generation assets – with the exception of coal – and supply assets for about €750 million.

“The transaction should be beneficial for the group, in view of Repsol's stronger credit quality,” S&P said in a news release.

“After the sale, the VIE group will mainly comprise Viesgo Holdco, which we estimate will generate about 90% of consolidated EBITDA, up from about 75% in 2017.

“Overall, the transaction does not affect Viesgo Holdco's credit quality, which remains insulated from the rest of the group.”
