L Brands lower on earnings anticipation; Endo International notes continue to rise

By James McCandless

San Antonio, Aug. 21 – Trading in the distressed debt market on Wednesday focused on many of the names recently in play.

L Brands, Inc.’s notes traded lower in anticipation of the company’s release of its second-quarter earnings report.

The 6¾% senior notes due 2036 dipped ½ point to close at 87 bid. The 5¼% notes due 2028 lost ¼ point to close at 91¾ bid.

Sector peer J.C. Penney Co., Inc.’s issues moved in varied directions.

Meanwhile, pharma name Endo International plc’s paper continued to rise off of Tuesday’s news that it had reached a settlement in opioid lawsuits.

The 6% senior paper due 2023 improved by ¼ point to close at 67½ bid.

Generics producer Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.’s notes were also positive.

The 2.8% senior notes due 2023 gained 2 points to close at 85 bid. The 3.15% notes due 2026 added 1¾ points to close at 75½ bid.

Oil futures diverged, mirrored by Whiting Petroleum Corp.’s issues as Valaris plc and Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc.’s paper improved.

Utilities name PG&E Corp.’s notes saw a partial recovery of the last few day’s losses.

The 6.05% notes due 2034 gained 1½ points to close at 110 bid.

Over the last two trading days, the notes dropped 2¾ points.
