Atleast with CPG they are growing production now internally ( as they stated in their latest PR) instead of buying production which means they can keep their debt levels under control and slowly pay that off hopefully. Their total payout ratio now after the cut is approx 84% now which means their debt levels should not rise to fund capex and / dividends like it did before
I'd just assume see no dividend right now under these conditions to pay down more debt or even lower dividend, but I'm sure they'll keep it.
Back to LTS - it will be interesting to see what happens mid-June with interest payment due and within about 60 days or so on bank line - if they can get more dollars - it may be tough as the bond investors are not the biggest risk takers.
