ESG Concerns In Oil And Gas Sectors Led To A Surge In Downgrade Pressure In January, Which Was Realized By Mid-February

The number of potential bond downgrades (defined as issuers rated 'AAA' to 'B-' by S&P Global Ratings with either negative rating outlooks or ratings on CreditWatch with negative implications) decreased for the sixth consecutive month to 1,137 as of the end of January, from 1,178 a month earlier. However, this is still considerably higher than the 642 issuers on our list a year ago.

Removals significantly outpaced additions in January: we added 22 issuers and removed 63 issuers from the list since the last reporting period. 42 removals were because of outlook and CreditWatch revisions, two of which were accompanied by upgrades (see Table 1). There were only 14 downgrades on entities in our list by Jan. 29, three of which remain on the list. Of the 11 issuers that were downgraded and removed, 10 were from the U.S. and one from Canada. Additions to our list last month included 17 that resulted from revisions in outlook or CreditWatch, one of which was accompanied by a downgrade. One issuer was added following an upgrade and three are newly rated entities.

Downgrade Potential Surged In The Oil And Gas Sector In January

Financial institutions continue to lead potential bond downgrades at 158, followed by the media and entertainment sector at 135 issuers, together accounting for more than 25% of the potential bond downgrades. But credit risk continues to soften in the two sectors, as they had no additions last month, while reporting four and nine removals, respectively. On the contrary, the oil and gas sector had the highest tally increase in January with six issuers added to our list. Four of them had ratings with a negative CreditWatch, and six entities already qualifying as potential bond downgrades in the previous month saw their negative outlook changed to a CreditWatch with negative implications. Consequently, the count of potential downgrades carrying a negative CreditWatch rose to ten in this sector, compared to only one in December (see Chart 1). The one, Husky Energy Inc., had been downgraded following a merger to equalize with the rating of its new parent and was removed from our count.

This resulted in a ratio of outlook to CreditWatch placements of 4.8 to 1 in the oil and gas sector. Other sectors with a high count of CreditWatches with negative implications are media and entertainment and utilities. With 15 and 10 such issuers, respectively, their ratios of outlooks to CreditWatches are 8 to 1 and 9.4 to 1. This compares with14.4 to 1 across all sectors, higher than the 15.8 to 1 a month earlier, but far below its record of 3.0 to 1 in April last year. A higher ratio reflects less immediate downgrade pressure. Issuers are placed on CreditWatch negative when there is an event or deviation from an expected trend or material change in the performance of the issuer but the magnitude is not yet determined or there is a change in rating criteria. This may not necessarily lead to a downgrade, but the tight timeline of 90 days indicates a high likelihood that a rating action in the direction mentioned in CreditWatch will follow ("General Criteria: Use Of CreditWatch And Outlooks", Sept. 14, 2009).

Concerns About The Environmental Impact Of The Oil And Gas Sector Drove The Negative Bias Up In January, And Downgrades By Mid- February

The negative bias (count of potential bond downgrades over the total rated universe) in the oil and gas sector rose to 58% in January, 28 percentage points above numbers a year earlier, and only 7 percentage points below the July 2020 rate, when potential bond downgrades were at an all-time high (see Chart 3). The sector increased its negative bias from the previous month by 2 percentage points, the highest increase in January this year. Other than oil and gas, only telecommunications and capital goods had an increase in their negative bias, and by much less than half a percentage point.

The increase in negative bias in the oil and gas sector resulted from an industry risk assessment revision on Jan. 25, which lead to nine issuers on our list being placed on CreditWatch with negative implications. These were all driven by S&P Global Ratings' concerns about the greenhouse gas emissions and the energy transition to renewable energy. We expect demand for fossil fuel products to decrease, given the increasing adoption and transition of renewable energy alternatives to address climate change. Globally, sovereign and local governments have been endorsing stricter policies and regulations while providing industry subsidies to reduce greenhouse gas and carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels. We expect this transition over time to have negative implications on hydrocarbon demand and prices. As a result, the risk assessment for the oil and gas integrated, exploration and production industry has been revised to 'Moderately High Risk (4)' from 'Intermediate Risk (3)'. ("The Change To The Industry Risk Assessment For Exploration & Production Companies And What It Means For Issuer Ratings", Jan. 25, 2021). Eight of the nine CreditWatch placements have been resolved by Feb. 17, six of them with a downgrade, accompanied by the removal of the CreditWatch and a stable outlook (Chevron Corp.,Exxon Mobil Corp.,ConocoPhillips, Canadian Natural Resources Ltd., Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Total SE). The two Chinese issuers (China Petrochemical Corp., China National Offshore Oil Corp.) placed on CreditWatch negative saw the CreditWatch removed with an affirmation of the rating, as, despite the increased ESG awareness, Chinese national oil companies are likely to fare better than their international peers. Therefore, these entities will not be part of our list for February. Only one issuer (Woodside Petroleum Ltd.) still remains on CreditWatch negative as of Feb. 22, and S&P Global Ratings expects to resolve it soon (S&P Global Ratings Takes Multiple Rating Actions On Major Oil And Gas Companies To Factor In Greater Industry Risks, Jan. 26, 2021). TechnipFMC Plc was downgraded on Feb. 17, however, this rating action was not driven by ESG considerations.

Over the past twelve months, issuers in the transportation sector had the strongest rise in negative bias by 35 percentage points, from a low 7% last January, mirroring the impact of pandemic-related travel restrictions. On the other hand, the telecommunication and health care sectors have a lower negative bias now than a year back, signaling their resilience to the coronavirus pandemic.

Upgrades Surpass Downgrades In The First Month Of 2021

The gap between potential downgrades and upgrades further narrowed for the sixth consecutive month as potential bond downgrades continued to decrease, while potential bond upgrades gradually increased. In July, at the widest point, we counted 1,365 potential downgrades and 104 potential upgrades, compared with 1137 and 186 now--but also compared with 645 potential downgrades and 260 potential upgrades last January. The gap remains wider than during the last global financial crisis (see Chart 4). This indicates that credit deterioration will continue in the coming month, albeit at a slower pace. Lower rated issuers will be most impacted as they are particularly vulnerable to worsening financing conditions following a sudden shock or negative change of events.

Chart 5

image

With 29 upgrades and 26 downgrades, the number of upgrades exceeded downgrades in January 2021, for the first time since October 2018 (see Chart 5). However, this is not because of a surge in upgrades, but because of the gradual decrease in the number of monthly downgrades since the second half of 2020. The pandemic pushed the proportion of issuers placed on CreditWatch with negative implications up in the first quarter, resulting in a high count of downgrades in the following months as these CreditWatch placements got resolved. Since issuers had the accompanying rating changes and now have ratings that incorporate the risks from the current challenges.

Media And Entertainment Continues To Be The Sector Most Affected By The Pandemic

Tourism and leisure businesses continue to face headwinds amid social distancing measures and travel restrictions. The differential between the downgrade proportion over the last 12 months and the past five years is strongest in media and entertainment, reflecting the sector's current vulnerability (see Chart 5). The oil and gas sector has the second highest downgrade proportion over the last 12 months, but still below its five-year-average. The recent downgrades, as well as the still outstanding CreditWatches in the sector, should lead to a higher 12-month proportion for February.
