NEW YORK — Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said Monday it has raised its rating on Blue Bell, Pa.-based technology services provider Unisys Corp.'s $400 million senior notes due 2012 to B from CC and removed it from CreditWatch.
The ratings agency also affirmed the B rating on the company's $300 million senior notes due March 2010.
Standard & Poor's added that, due to the value and composition of the offers for the 2010 and 2012 notes, it does not view these exchanges as distressed.
Lastly, S&P revised the CreditWatch on the CC corporate credit rating and the CC rating on the $150 million notes due 2015 and $210 million notes due 2016 to negative from developing.
