Company announcement
Standard & Poor's (S&P) has today lowered DONG Energy's rating to 'BBB+' from 'A-'. The outlook is negative. The rating action is a consequence of the challenging gas and power markets.
"DONG Energy has a solid credit profile and even with this downgrade we are still in line with our minimum rating target of Baa1/BBB+. We remain strongly committed to this rating target and will take the actions necessary to maintain it", says Carsten Krogsgaard Thomsen, CFO of DONG Energy.
The information provided in this announcement does not change the previous financial guidance for the 2012 financial year or the announced expected investment level.
