Tisková zpráva
Průmyslově-technologická skupina CSG posiluje důvěru na mezinárodních kapitálových trzích. Ratingová agentura Moody’s zvýšila hodnocení zajištěných seniorních dluhopisů CSG na stupeň Baa3. A to díky zlepšení řízení firmy po vstupu na burzu, zjednodušené kapitálové struktuře a konzervativnější finanční strategii. Stabilní výhled pro CSG potvrdila také agentura Fitch Ratings (BBB-).

Moody’s Investors Service upgraded CSG’s backed senior secured debt from the speculative-grade level of Ba1 to investment-grade Baa3. According to the agency, the upgrade reflects expectations of continued growth, strong free cash flow generation, and a solid financial profile in the coming years.

A Stable Outlook from Moody’s indicates that the agency expects CSG to maintain strong performance over the next 12 to 18 months and beyond. In its assessment, Moody’s also highlighted improvements in governance and enhanced transparency of the capital structure following the IPO, the Group’s conservative financial policy, and its strategy to maintain leverage at prudent levels, including a planned gradual transition from secured to unsecured debt.

Fitch Ratings, as part of a recent review and affirmation of ratings for seven European aerospace and defense companies, also affirmed CSG’s rating at BBB- with a Stable Outlook. The affirmation followed Fitch’s recent update of its Corporate Rating Criteria and had no impact on CSG’s credit assessment.

Fitch’s confirmation further underscores CSG’s consistent credit profile relative to comparable European issuers in the defense and aerospace sector and reinforces market confidence in the long-term sustainability of the Group’s financial position.

Credit ratings provide an independent assessment of an issuer’s creditworthiness and serve as an important benchmark for investors by indicating the likelihood that the issuer will meet its financial commitments in full and on time.

CSG’s IPO marked a key milestone in the Group’s development. The share offering strengthened the company’s cash position, enabled further simplification of its capital structure, and supported strategic objectives, including a sustainable dividend policy and prudent leverage management. CSG completed its initial public offering in January 2025, floating 15.2 % of its shares. The company’s current market capitalization stands at approximately EUR 30 billion.

Supported by its current ratings and the favorable outlook for the European defense sector, CSG expects continued revenue growth, stable free cash flow generation, and further strengthening of confidence among investors and business partners.
