DBRS Confirms Ratings of Algonquin Power & Utilities Unit
10:40 AM EST, 02/10/2023 (MT Newswires) -- DBRS said Friday that it has confirmed the issuer rating and the senior unsecured debentures rating of Algonquin Power & Utilities (AQN.TO) unit Algonquin Power Co. at BBB with stable trends.
The rating confirmations took into account factors such as significant improvement in financial performance after the one-time impact of the February 2021 Texas winter event; solid resilience in coping with power market volatility, high inflation, rising interest rates, and a potential economic slowdown in North America; and significant available credit facilities at Algonquin Power and additional liquidity support provided by Algonquin Power & Utilities with intercompany loans and equity injections for capital projects in 2022 and for future projects.
