Hey Mike, Frank, Wells, Joel, and Abry Partners
My sample volume is up over 50%, but my commissions are flat—and no one has said a word. Has Aegis capped our commissions without telling us? Is this because of the credit downgrade, the CreditWatch status, and the looming $168 million note that’s due in weeks? We deserve answers, not silence.
----------
Aegis Sciences Corporation is confronting significant refinancing challenges as it approaches the May 2025 maturity of its $168 million term loan. S&P Global Ratings downgraded the company to 'CCC+' and placed it on CreditWatch with negative implications, citing persistent cash flow deficits, high leverage, and very limited liquidity, including the absence of a revolving credit facility.
Factors Impacting Refinancing Prospects
Financial Performance: Aegis has experienced a sharper-than-expected decline in its COVID-19 testing revenue, leading to underperformance in revenue, margins, and cash flow.
Liquidity Constraints:
Given these factors, Aegis faces
elevated refinancing risk and is
considered vulnerable to
nonpayment, relying on favorable
business, financial, and economic
conditions to meet its financial
commitments.
s&P Global Ratings
In summary, unless Aegis can
significantly improve its financial
performance or secure external
support, the likelihood of
successfully refinancing its
upcoming debt appears limited.
Every RSM and Aegis emplyee needs and deserves answers
