S&P puts Encore Medical on watch
Standard & Poor's said it placed its ratings on Encore Medical Corp. and subsidiary Encore Medical IHC Inc., including the B corporate credit rating, on CreditWatch with negative implications.
The agency said that the CreditWatch placement follows Encore's announcement that it had entered into a definitive merger agreement with a company formed and controlled by Blackstone Capital Partners V LP.
S&P added it assumes that the company's debt obligation after the transaction will be greater than the company's current obligation of $342 million.
