Abstract:

Dentalcorp Health Services ULC is adding an incremental $75 million (approximately C$100 million) to its first-lien term loan to fund the acquisition of dental clinics. In addition, shareholders have committed the same amount of common equity. We expect adjusted leverage to be about 10x for 2020, half a turn higher than what we projected, but generally in line with the rating. We affirmed the 'B-'issuer credit rating. We also affirmed the 'B-' rating on the first-lien debt and 'CCC' on the second-lien debt. Recovery ratings remain '3' for the first-lien debt and '6' for the second-lien debt. Our stable outlook reflects our expectation that Dentalcorp will continue to pursue a debt-funded, acquisition-driven growth strategy such that revenue continues to increase
