S&P Global Ratings on Aug. 8 assigned its B issuer credit rating to Allen Media LLC, which offers news and information broadcasting services.

The rating agency also assigned its B issue-level rating to the company's $500 million senior secured first-lien term loan.

The ratings outlook is stable, reflecting S&P's expectation that Allen Media will cut leverage to below 4.5x in 2019 and maintain leverage below that on a sustained basis while generating free operating cash flow in excess of $30 million.

Moody's recently assigned a B2 corporate family rating and B3-PD probability of default rating to Allen Media.
