Daily Brief Credit: Genting Berhad – Event Flash – Resorts World Las Vegas To Issue USD 300 Mn 7Y Notes – Lucror Analytics and more

Genting Berhad’s subsidiary, Resorts World Las Vegas LLC (RWLV), is holding roadshows to market an issuance of USD 300 mn Reg-S/144A 7-year senior unsecured notes. The notes are rated BB+/BBB- by S&P and Fitch, respectively. The new notes will rank pari passu with the existing USD 1.35 bn of RWLVCA notes.

Proceeds from the notes issuance will be used to refinance a USD 300 mn subordinated shareholder loan from Genting Assets Inc. Hence, the transaction will be leverage neutral.

We see fair value for the proposed RWLVCA 2030 notes at c. 8.5%, as we expect the bonds to price in line with the existing curve. That said, there could be strong demand for the notes, given the small issuance size and dearth of issuance in the Asia crossover space so far this year.
