Forest Oil Corporation on March 5, 2014, was downgraded by Moody’s Investors. Moody’s downgraded Forest Oil Corporation’s corporate family rating to B3 from B2 and its senior unsecured notes rating to Caa1 from B3. “Drilling results in Forest’s Eagle Ford Shale are short of expectations, which we previously stated could be a catalyst for a downgrade,” commented Andrew Brooks, Moody’s Vice President. “The reallocation of capital away from the Eagle Ford will result in lower oil production than we had previously anticipated, leading to reduced cash flow and higher leverage. Lower projected EBITDA is expected to pressure the leverage covenant under Forest’s secured revolving credit facility, which will require relief from its banks.” Also, previously on February 28, 2014, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services lowered its corporate credit rating on Forest Oil Corporation to B- from B+, its senior secured debt to B+ from BB and the Company’s senior unsecured notes to CCC from B-.
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, B of A, Merrill Lynch, and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. were serving as the Dealer Managers for the Forest Oil Senior Unsecured Notes.
