Scope assigns instrument ratings to capital market debt issued by Adler Real Estate AG (ADLER)
Scope Ratings assigns a BB+ to ADLER’s senior unsecured EUR 10m convertible bond 2013/2017 (ISIN DE000A1TNEE3), given the recovery expectations that we view as ‘excellent’ (90-100%), which is due mainly to the senior-ranking character of the debt facility.
Scope has also assigned instrument ratings of BB- to the following debt instruments:
- EUR 35m bond 2013/2018 (ISIN DE000A1R1A42),
- EUR 130m bond 2014/2019 (ISIN DE000A11QF02),
- EUR 11.25m convertible bond 2013/2018 (ISIN DE000A1YCMH2),
- EUR 350m bond 2015/2020 (ISIN XS1211417362) and
- EUR 138m convertible bond (ISIN DE000A161XW6).
All ratings reflect our recovery expectation that we view as ‘average’ (30-50%).
The EUR 175m mandatory convertible bond 2015/2018 (ISIN DE000A161ZA7) is rated B- as recovery expectations are ‘very low’ (0-10%).
