Hurricane Irma will have negative implications for the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority’s liquidity and cause further delays to its debt restructuring plans, Moody’s Investors Services predicted in a report released Tuesday.
Moody’s Investors Service's July 6 downgrade of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority’s credit rating to from Caa3 to Ca reflects “the increased uncertainty that now exists regarding the outcome and the timing of a future debt restructuring plan for PREPA, which in the end will lower bondholder recoveries.
The Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority provided additional detail on its previously announced extension and supplement to its restructuring support agreement (RSA) with the ad hoc group of PREPA bondholders, the fuel line lenders, the monoline insurers and the Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico.
