Abstract:SAN FRANCISCO (Standard&Poor's) May 6, 2008--Standard&Poor's Ratings Services said today that it lowered its counterparty credit rating on San Diego-based Arrowhead General Insurance Agency Inc. (Arrowhead) to 'B-' from 'B'. Standard&Poor's also said that the outlook on Arrowhead is negative. "This rating action reflects our view that the company is unable to sustain the financial-performance goals that were established when we initially assigned the ratings in 2006," explained Standard&Poor's credit analyst Michael Gross. These metrics include sustained adjusted EBITDA fixed-charge coverage of 2.4x, annual net income of about $10 million, and the maintenance of larger bank loan covenant cushions relative to actual recent experience. Declining property/casualty premium rates and some carrier disruption
