(B/Positive/--); the exposure to country and foreign-exchange risks associated with its non-U.K. operations; and the group's weak--albeit improving--cash generation relative to dividend payments. The ratings are supported, however, by the continuing cash generation and upstream dividends from C&W's established International business; its adequate liquidity position; and its modestly leveraged capital structure, with total adjusted debt to EBITDA of 1.6x (0.9x reported) at Sept. 30, 2008. C&W's revenues increased by 1.3% in the 12 months to Sept. 30, 2008, compared with the same period a year earlier,GBR126830G1741650101010 501010 5010 50Cable&Wireless PLC115390EUROMIDAFRPACUSACW/@LNSUMMARYGLOBISSSTRUCCORPABSTelecommunicationsCredit & Investment ResearchS&P Credit Researchhttp://www.alacrastore.com/storecontent/spcred/683173spcred/683173normThe latest Research Update from S&Pglobalstructured11/13/2008 3:29:00 PM175Research Update683173United KingdomAlternative CarriersEurope, Middle East, AfricaPacificUnited StatesGlobal IssuersStructured FinanceCorporationsAsset-Backed SecuritiesTelecommunications & CableResearch UpdateOn Nov. 11, 2008, Standard&Poor's Ratings Services revised its outlook on U.K.-based telecommunications provider Cable&Wireless PLC (C&W) to positive from developing following the group's announcement that it intends to demerge its business units.

I am pleased to report that compared to the half-year, I'm fully match fit this time, which pleases me no end, and I apologize to those people I splattered on back in November. Today we will be giving a short update on CWI, on international. Actually, when we conceived of this investor day, it was prior to the half-year, and we thought the timing was appropriate as it would be two years in to the EAUS journey, and this session was always originally conceived as just an EAUS presentation. Obviously, the change of leadership at the half-year on international has made it opportune for me to give you some first reflections on that business. That will be about half an hour, with an opportunity for Q&A thereafter. Then we will take a short break, and Jim Marsh, the chief executive of the EAUS and I will take you through the substance of today, which is the [full-year] update on Europe, Asia and the US.... 3/4/2008 12:07:00 PMCable & Wireless PLC54.0000FinalCable & Wireless PLC Investor Update TranscriptCWP9:00am UKTTranscriptT1742767Credit & Investment ResearchThomson StreetEvents
