Abstract:

Amentum Holdings LLC experienced significant contract wind-downs in fiscal 2022 related to the United States' exit from Afghanistan. The larger-than-expected revenue and EBITDA impact from these contract wind-downs resulted in S&P Global Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA at 7x for Amentum's fiscal year ending September 2022. We revised our outlook on Amentum to negative from stable and affirmed the 'B' issuer credit rating and 'B' senior secured issue-level ratings. We do not rate the second lien debt. The negative outlook reflects Amentum's adjusted debt to EBITDA of 7x and the potential risk that this may rise above 7x and remain there over the next 12 months. NEW YORK (S&P Global Ratings) Feb. 17, 2023-- S&P Global Ratings today took the rating
