The latest announcement is out from Exchange Income ( (TSE:EIF) ).
Exchange Income Corporation has secured its first investment grade corporate credit rating, receiving a BBB (low) with a stable outlook from Morningstar DBRS, a move that reflects the stability of its business model across aerospace, aviation and manufacturing. The rating, alongside an extended and upsized credit facility, positions the company to tap the Canadian corporate bond market, supporting future acquisitions, major aerospace contract bids and organic investments while maintaining its conservative leverage stance.
Management highlighted that EIC has redeemed $425 million of convertible debentures over the past 15 months, with more than 90% converting to equity, driving its aggregate leverage ratio to the lowest level in over a decade. The company expects the new rating to enable replacement of these convertibles with lower-cost, fixed-rate debt, further optimizing its capital structure and potentially enhancing returns for shareholders as it continues to pursue growth opportunities.
The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:EIF) stock is a Buy with a C$116.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Exchange Income stock, see the TSE:EIF Stock Forecast page.
