Regulatory News:

The ratings agency Standard & Poor’s announced today that it has raised its long- and short-term credit ratings on SFL (Paris:FLY) to BBB/A2 (previously BBB-/A3) with a stable outlook.

S&P indicates that the leasing of the In/Out building, which follows other recent positive letting performances including the pre-leasing of part of #cloud.paris, improves SFL’s financial risk profile. The agency expects that SFL’s EBITDA interest coverage will exceed 2.4x, particularly as SFL should also benefit from the refinancing operations conducted in late 2014 that resulted in lower interest charges.

SFL’s rating continues to take account of the quality of its asset portfolio, notably its strong presence in the CBD, an occupancy rate which should stabilise around 96% and improvements in the average duration of its leases.
