Fitch rates Virgin Media notes BB+

Fitch Ratings said it assigned Virgin Media Secured Finance plc's new 2018 senior secured notes, issued in tranches of £875m and $1 billion, a final rating of BB+. Virgin Media Secured Finance's ultimate parent is Virgin Media Inc., which has BB- and B ratings with a positive view.

The upsized £1.5 billion equivalent issue has been placed in two tranches: $1 billion 6 ½% senior secured notes and £875 million 7% senior secured notes each with a final maturity in January 2018.

The notes were issued at a discount and the senior secured bonds are guaranteed and secured on a first-ranking basis, equally with the Virgin Media Investment Holdings senior secured loan facilities, also rated BB+.
