S&P affirms Toronto Hydro
Standard & Poor's said it affirmed the A long-term corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings on Toronto Hydro Corp.
The outlook is stable.
"We base the ratings affirmation on what we view as a predictable and transparent regulatory regime, stable company operations, and no change in the business risk profile of electricity distribution within the Ontario market framework," S&P analyst Nicole Martin said in a statement.
Ratings reflect the credit risk profile of its key subsidiary Toronto Hydro-Electric System Ltd.
The company's business risk profile reflects its monopoly, low-risk, regulated electricity distribution business and solid customer base, S&P noted.
Offsetting these strengths is THC's significant financial risk profile and sizable capital expenditure pressures related to aging infrastructure, the agency said.
