Press release – Neuilly-sur-Seine, Thursday, March 7, 2024 – 5.45 pm
Standard & Poor’s confirmed ARGAN’s
“investment grade” status
Following the 2023 annual results release and the strategic plan combining growth and deleveraging published on this occasion, Standard & Poor's, a recognized international rating agency, has confirmed ARGAN's “investment grade” status with a rating maintained at BBB-.
Standard & Poor's (S&P), through S&P Global Ratings, renewed, in a report published on Wednesday, March 6, 2024, the “investment grade” quality of ARGAN with a BBB- rating (with a “negative” outlook maintained at this stage).
S&P took thus into account the strategic roadmap presented on the publication of the 2023 annual results on January 181, aiming to continue a controlled development and reinforce the quality of ARGAN's signature on the financial markets. More specifically, as part of a policy of self-financed growth through targeted asset disposals, ARGAN aims, by the end of 2026, to reduce its LTV ratio to below 40% (compared with 49.7% at the end of 2023) and that of net debt / EBITDA to approximately 8x (compared with 11x at the end of 2023), while recording a rental income growth of around 5% per year on average over the period 2024-2026.
In its report, S&P notably stated: “The tighter financial policy, sustained cash flow generation, debt amortization, and EBITDA contribution from development will support deleveraging.”. The rating agency also highlighted the “resilient” fundamentals of the French logistics sector, which contribute to stable cash flow outlooks. The rating is available on the S&P Global Ratings website www.standardandpoors.com.
ARGAN is thus supported in its strong and proactive deleveraging strategy and its ability to reinforce its “investment grade” status, thus allowing for future refinancing under the best possible conditions, especially by the maturity of its €500 million bond debt in November 2026.
