Abstract:

SAN FRANCISCO (S&P Global Ratings) March 7, 2022--S&P Global Ratings today assigned its 'B-' issue-level rating and '3' recovery rating to Reston, Va.-based Sophia L.P.'s (doing business as Ellucian) proposed $325 million non-fungible senior secured first-lien term loan due 2027. The '3' recovery rating indicates our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 65%) recovery in the event of a default. The company's existing $540 million senior secured second-lien term loan due 2028 is privately placed and not rated. At the same time, we lowered our issue-level rating on Ellucian's existing senior secured first-lien debt to 'B-' from 'B' and revised our recovery rating to '3' from '2'. Our 'B-' issuer credit rating and stable outlook on the company are unchanged.
