Abstract:

We expect Mannington Mills' operating performance to remain stable primarily driven by strong sales growth in luxury vinyl tile (LVT), offset by a decline in its legacy products sales (including vinyl, laminate, wood). We expect the company to operate at adjusted debt to EBITDA of about 3.6x and funds from operations (FFO) to debt of 21% in the next 12 months. Therefore, we are affirming our 'BB-' corporate credit rating on the company. At the same time, we are affirming our 'BB-' issue-level rating on the company's term loan. The recovery rating on the term loan is unchanged at '3'. The stable outlook reflects our expectation that the company will continue to expand its customer sales, especially in the LVT
