S&P: Charter unchanged after upsizing

Standard & Poor’s said the corporate credit rating on Charter Communications Inc. is unchanged following the upsizing of its proposed senior unsecured notes to $3.5 billion from $1.5 billion, which is issued by CCOH Safari LLC.

The notes are being issued in two tranches – $1.5 billion 5½% notes due 2022 and $2 billion of 5¾% notes due 2024.

The proceeds will be used to fund the acquisition of about 1.4 million subscribers from Comcast, S&P said.

Also unchanged are the B+ rating and 5 recovery rating on the unsecured notes. The 5 recovery rating indicates 10% to 30% expected default recovery.
