S&P rates Tops Holding notes CCC-

S&P said it assigned its CCC- issue-level rating to Tops Holding LLC's proposed 9% senior unsecured amortizing notes due 2021. The 6 recovery rating on the new notes reflects an expectation for negligible (0%-10%; rounded estimate: 0%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

The company plans to use the proceeds from the notes, in addition to up to $11.6 million in cash, to exchange all of the validly tendered 8¾% / 9½% senior unsecured notes due June 2018 issued by Tops Holding II Corp. As of April 22, there was $85.5 million in aggregate principal outstanding.

Tops Holding LLC is a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Tops Holding II Corp.

“In our view, the proposed exchange offer addresses the company's near-term refinancing risk. However, underlying operating performance trends remain soft as Tops continues to struggle with challenging industry conditions,” S&P said in a news release.
