Moody's lowers Quiksilver notes to Caa2

Moody's Investors Service said it lowered Quiksilver Inc.'s senior unsecured note rating to Caa2 from Caa1, including its $400 million senior unsecured notes due April 2015 to Caa2 (LGD 5, 80%) from Caa1 (LGD 4, 66%).

The company's B3 corporate family and probability of default ratings were affirmed.

Moody's also upgraded Quiksilver's speculative grade liquidity rating to SGL-3 from SGL-4. The outlook is negative.

The one-notch downgrade of Quiksilver's senior unsecured note rating to Caa2 reflects the granting of liens over a substantial portion of the company's European assets to secure its new European credit facilities, the agency said.
