A.M. Best Affirms Ratings of ACMAT Corporation and ACSTAR Insurance Company
16 Mayo 2011 - 12:34PM
Business Wire
A.M. Best Co. has affirmed the issuer credit rating (ICR)
of “bbb+” of ACMAT Corporation (ACMAT) (New Britain, CT)
[Pink Sheets: ACMTA]. A.M. Best also has affirmed the financial
strength rating of A (Excellent) and the ICR of “a+” of ACMAT’s
wholly owned subsidiary, ACSTAR Insurance Company (ACSTAR)
(Chicago, IL.). The outlook for all ratings is stable.
The rating affirmations reflect ACSTAR’s exceptionally strong
risk-adjusted capitalization, historically strong operating
performance, geographic diversification, effective risk management
approach and experience in managing through market cycles.
These positive rating factors are offset by ACSTAR’s limited
product diversification, stockholder dividends to service the debt
at ACMAT and the macroeconomic effects on ACSTAR’s premium revenue
and cash flow.
ACSTAR is a provider of surety bonds for general building,
specialty trade, environmental remediation and asbestos abatement
contractors, as well as for lead abatement contractors and solid
waste disposal contractors. ACMAT owns and renovates commercial
office buildings. It also provides financial and insurance
services.
The principal methodology used in determining these ratings is
Best’s Credit Rating Methodology -- Global Life and Non-Life
Insurance Edition, which provides a
comprehensive explanation of A.M. Best’s rating process and
highlights the different rating criteria employed. Additional key
criteria utilized include: “Risk Management and the Rating Process
for Insurance Companies”; “Understanding BCAR for Property/Casualty
Insurers”; and “A.M. Best’s Ratings & the Treatment of Debt.”
