S&P lowers Angiotech

Standard & Poor's said it lowered its long-term corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings on Angiotech Pharmaceuticals Inc. to B- from B+.

At the same time, the agency said it lowered the senior subordinated debt rating to CCC from B-.

The outlook is negative.

The agency added that this two-notch downgrade reflects Angiotech's sharply deteriorating credit metrics caused by the declining royalty revenue stream from drug-eluting stents and the lack of visibility regarding cash flow generation.
