Aquila Rating Hovers Around Junk
LCG, Sep. 4, 2002--The revenue earned by Aquila from regulated operations may not be high enough to enable it to meet its obligations, make capital expenditures, and issue dividends, according to Moody's Investors Service.While Moody's downgraded the energy company's debt to junk, Standard & Poor's issued a rating of "BBB-minus," a lower investment grade than the previous "BBB" rating. As a result of the negative outlook, Aquila has had to pay $192 million earlier than it might have otherwise. It has tried to raise capital by selling $1 billion of assets, and had earlier cut its dividend by 42%.The company president and chief executive, Robert K. Green, said, "We've been preparing to conduct business operations under this possible scenario and will continue to deliver safe, reliable and economical energy to our customers." Aquila, formerly Utilicorp United, is based in Kansas City, Mo.
