Odea Bank A.S.: Update following rating upgrade, outlook remains positiveJul 27, 2024
......Odea Bank A.S.'s (Odea) B# deposit rating reflects its b# baseline credit assessment (BCA) and no affiliate support uplift from its Lebanese parent Bank Audi S.A.L. (Bank Audi, unrated) or government support from Turkiye (B# positive). Odea's standalone BCA of b# reflects improving asset quality and profitability counterbalanced by modest capitalisation. It also captures a moderating operating environment and the bank's limited recourse to wholesale funding and strong liquidity......
Colbun S.A.: Update following rating affirmationJul 26, 2024
......Colbun S.A.'s (Colbun, Baa# stable) credit quality reflects that, in spite of the company's growth plans that include but are not limited to the recently announced acquisition of Inversiones Latin America Power SpA ("ILAP", B# Stable), it will continue to report credit metrics that support its credit profile. Further supporting the credit profile is the company's active commercial policy that seeks extended contractual terms primarily with new unregulated customers to be supplied from its own generation sources. Colbun currently presents an adequate energy balance, with a power generation output that matches its contractual PPA obligations. With ILAP's acquisition plus the start of operations of its Horizonte wind project (###MW) expected by early next year, the company will not only further diversify its asset base but also enhance its geographic footprint in Chile. Nevertheless, it still is exposed to carbon transition risks, given it owns coal and gas fired assets that produce the remaining......

Dallas (City of) TX Waterworks&Sewer Ent.: Update to credit analysisJul 26, 2024
......The credit profile of the Dallas (City of) TX Waterworks and Sewer Enterprise (the system) (Aa# stable) considers the close credit relationship between the City of Dallas (A# stable) and the system, as well as the strong credit fundamentals of the system. The linkage between the two entities is driven by its shared governance, as the city council is the responsible body for both general city operations and the system. The system exhibits credit strengths that bolster the profile, including both legal protections and system fundamentals. Specifically, the legal framework protecting bondholders is strong, both in state legislation and the bond legal documents, including a secured pledge of net revenue and the closed loop of funds as required in the city's voter approved charter. Additionally, the system exhibits healthy credit fundamentals. The system is a very large, regional water and wastewater service provider with a healthy asset condition, ample water supply and system capacity. Financial......
South West Water Limited: New Issuer ReportJul 26, 2024
......The credit quality of South West Water (Baa# negative) reflects its low business risk as a monopoly provider of essential water and sewerage services operating under a well- established regulatory regime. The company has moderate financial leverage, with net debt equivalent to ##% of Regulatory Capital Value (RCV) as of March ####. As one of the three listed UK water groups, Pennon has demonstrated good access to equity capital. The number of pollution incidents on the company's wastewater network remains well above peers and regulatory targets, which has become a greater drag on financial performance in the ####-## period (AMP#) as the topic has become a key focus of Ofwat and government. South West Water's rating on the Environment Agency's (EA) annual assessment of water companies has consequently never exceeded two stars ("requiring improvement"), despite a commitment to achieve four stars by the end of AMP#. Largely because of ODIs linked to pollution incidents and the EA's rating......
Seadrill Limited: International offshore driller focused on key regional marketsJul 26, 2024
Hydro One Inc.: Update to credit analysisJul 26, 2024
......Hydro One Inc.'s (HOI, A# stable) credit profile reflects its baseline credit assessment (BCA) of baa# with a one notch uplift attributable to the moderate probability of extraordinary support from the Province of Ontario (Aa# positive), which indirectly owns ##.#% of HOI. HOI's credit quality is analyzed under our Regulated Electric and Gas Utilities rating methodology, and reflects the regulated nature of its operations and its low business risk profile. The utility's rate base consists of roughly ##% transmission and ##% distribution assets, and it benefits from a credit supportive regulatory environment under the Ontario Energy Board (OEB). We expect cash flow from operations to continue to be predictable and we forecast CFO-Pre W/C to debt of ##-##% in the next few years, slightly lower than recent years as the benefits from a favorable tax decision expire. These relatively weak financial metrics are primarily the result of its low authorized equity layer in the capital structure (currently......

......Voya CLO ####-#, Ltd. (Voya ####-# or the CLO) is a cash-flow CLO transaction managed by Voya Alternative Asset Management LLC (Voya or the manager). The CLO is backed by a $### million portfolio of non-investment-grade broadly syndicated loans and other assets that the manager purchases from and trades in the primary and secondary markets.

......Utah Transit Authority (UTA)'s sales tax revenue bonds (senior lien Aa# stable; subordinate lien Aa# stable) benefit from sound debt service coverage, generally growing revenue and the strong economic base from which the sales tax are generated. Pledged revenue did not contract at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, although historically, it suffered some declines during the Great Recession (see Exhibit #). The bonding programs' credit quality is also supported by an adequate #.# times additional bonds test (ABT) on the senior lien and a #.# times ABT for senior and subordinate lien debt combined......
