In view of the non-availability of information and lack of cooperation from ‘Cineline India Ltd.’ Brickwork Ratings has downgraded the long term rating to “BWR BB- / Stable'' and continued the rating in the “Issuer Not Cooperating” category, based on best available information as the Issuer did not cooperate.
The lenders/investors may note to exercise due caution while using the above ratings which mention "Issuer Not Cooperating", since the rating lacks any projections or forward looking component as they are arrived at based on best available information without any management/banker's interaction.
The rating was due for review. BWR took up with the company recently over emails and through telephone calls to obtain the required information. Despite the best efforts of BWR to get at least the minimum required information for a review, the entity has not provided the same.
Thus, due to lack of management cooperation to furnish adequate information about the company's performance despite follow up, coupled with its non submission of NDS, BWR is unable to assess its financial performance or its ability to service its debt and maintain a valid rating. Accordingly, the rating has been downgraded and continued in the “Issuer Not Cooperating” category. The rating downgrade is based on the lack of up-to-date information on the company’s performance.
LIMITATIONS OF THE RATING
Information availability risk is a key factor in the assessment of credit risk as generally, non-cooperation by the rated entities to provide required information for a review of the assigned rating may also be accompanied by financial stress. Users of the credit rating should therefore take into account possible deterioration in the credit quality of the rated entity arising from its non-transparency withholding of information required for a review of the rating.
