Luxembourg-based fixed satellite services operator SES S.A. (SES) continues to report strong growth in revenues and EBITDA, as well as a decrease in its capex commitments. In our view, this reflects SES' continued solid execution of operations. This could enable the group to achieve adjusted leverage ratio and adjusted FOCF to debt below 3.0x and about 20%, respectively, even in 2014. We are therefore revising the outlook on SES to positive from stable and affirming our 'BBB' long-term corporate credit rating. The positive outlook reflects the possibility that we could upgrade SES by one notch in the next 12 months if its leverage declines and if the group continues to improve its FOCF generation.
