During its recapitalization process, Nordic debt collector Intrum AB (publ) has missed paying the coupon interest on its outstanding market debt. As a result of the missed interest payments, we lowered our long-term issuer credit rating on Intrum to 'SD' from 'CC' and the issue ratings on its senior unsecured notes to 'D' from 'CC'. In parallel, Intrum has continued to make progress on its recapitalization efforts and it received confirmation for its Chapter 11 plan on Dec. 31, 2024, and filed for a Swedish Company Reorganization process. Our recovery ratings remain unchanged at '4' (40%) and we will re-evaluate the company's creditworthiness once it emerges from its restructuring process, which we expect to be concluded during the second quarter
