Second Rating for AerCap |
Amsterdam, Netherlands, Apr 25, 2012 - (ACN Newswire) - AerCap Holdings N.V. ("AerCap," "the Company," NYSE: AER) today announced that it has received an investment grade corporate credit rating of BBB- with a stable outlook from Fitch Ratings ("Fitch").
This is the second investment grade rating AerCap has received following its BBB- rating from Standard and Poor's Ratings Services in March this year. In addition to the corporate rating for AerCap Holdings N.V., Fitch has also assigned senior secured debt ratings of 'BBB' to several of AerCap's financing subsidiaries.
Aengus Kelly, CEO of AerCap said: "The attainment of the Fitch investment grade rating is a testament to the industry leading results of AerCap and should enable the Company to access the true unsecured funding market."
Fitch highlighted in its press release that the BBB- rating reflects AerCap's relatively low leverage, attractive aircraft fleet, diverse customer base, consistent operating performance, strong competitive positioning, and solid management team. AerCap's conservative approach to managing its capital structure and leverage was also one of the key factors underpinning the rating.
Additional information regarding AerCap's rating assignment can be found in Fitch's press release dated April 24, 2012 available on Fitch's website at www.fitchratings.com . None of the information on Fitch's website, including the press release, is incorporated by reference into or is otherwise a part of this press release. The rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agency and is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities.
