AS24's EUR250mn Add-On Neutral to Ratings

Fitch Ratings reports that Speedster Bidco GmbH (AutoScout24; AS24) has added a €250 million fully fungible add-on to its first-lien senior secured debt, raising leverage above the 7.0x EBITDA threshold. Despite this, the Issuer Default Rating and ‘B+' senior secured debt rating remain unchanged, as leverage is expected to return to acceptable levels by 2027.
