FRAT HOUSE: Fashion Retailer Placed in Liquidation
--------------------------------------------------
Cara Waters at SmartCompany reports that liquidators have been
appointed to fashion retailer Frat House, another victim of the
financial crisis gripping many retailers.
Raymond Sutcliffe was appointed as liquidator of the fashion
retailer last week and told SmartCompany some of the retailer's
stores have closed while others have been sold and will continue
trading.
Mr. Sutcliffe is in the process of organising a creditors'
meeting for August 24, the report notes.
"It's too early to say what caused [the liquidation] but the
global financial crisis in retail is one of the major causes,"
SmartCompany quotes Mr. Sutcliffe as saying.
SmartCompany notes that Mr. Sutcliffe is unable to say how many
staff have lost their jobs or how much debt Frat House is
carrying.
All staff have been paid in full, but there are "a few major
creditors" along with a number of unsecured creditors, Mr.
Sutcliffe told SmartCompany.
The Frat House operates 10 stores in Victoria, New South Wales
and Queensland.

* AUSTRALIA: Moody's Says Sector Outlook on States Still Negative
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service says that the sector outlook for
Australia's states and territories remains negative due to a
persistent trend of deficits and rising debt levels. While some
rating adjustments are likely, overall credit quality remains at
the upper end of the rating scale in view of the states' inherent
strong credit features.
Moody's detailed its latest analysis of economic and financial
trends in Australia's states and territories in a special
comment, "Sector Outlook for Australian States and Territories
Remains Negative." Moody's first assigned the negative outlook in
Jan 2010 in a special comment "Sub-Sovereign Outlook 2010", and
it applies to the sector as a whole, rather than individual
ratings.
According to the report, economic fundamentals are supportive
with Australian growth outpacing that of most developed
countries, and they continue a record 21 years of economic
expansion.
Nonetheless, there is unevenness in the economic performance
between regions in Australia, with the resource-dominated states
expanding strongly, while those with greater reliance on
manufacturing, tourism and education face negative pressures
related to the higher Australian dollar.
Looking ahead, deficits for the states and territories are
expected to widen in 2011/12 and remain elevated in 2012/13 as
revenue growth slows in line with the impact of changing
consumption patterns and higher savings rates on GST-backed
Commonwealth grants and the effects of a more volatile housing
sector. At the same time, current spending rates remain elevated,
and capital expenditures remain at record highs.
Moody's further notes that most states are planning to pull back
on expenditures as part of budgetary redress plans, but the
resolve of individual governments to carry through with these
plans varies.
The stock of debt at the states and territories has accumulated
sharply as cash deficits have widened, placing pressure on
ratings. Indebtedness has risen from previously low levels.
Indeed in 2007, a total of five of the seven jurisdictions held
debt to revenue ratios of below 60%, but by 2013, all are
projected to be over 60%, including some above 90%; comparatively
high compared to their peers. This rising trend is expected to
continue.
Despite potential for downward rating actions, inherent credit
features still support high ratings. These features include the
states' ample budget flexibility and a strong system of
Commonwealth transfers, which provides about 50% of income.
Moody's ratings for Australia's states and territories are: New
South Wales, Aaa, Stable; Victoria, Aaa, Stable; Queensland, Aa1,
Stable; South Australia, Aaa, Stable; Western Australia, Aaa,
Stable; Tasmania, Aaa, Stable; and the Northern Territory, Aa1,
Stable.

SINO-FOREST: Files CCAA Plan of Compromise & Reorganization
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sino-Forest Corporation disclosed that in connection with its
creditor protection proceedings under the Companies' Creditors
Arrangement Act (Canada); it has filed with the Ontario Superior
Court of Justice a Plan of Compromise and Reorganization
concerning Sino-Forest. Sino Forest intends to bring a motion
before the Court on Aug. 28, 2012, for an Order authorizing and
directing that a meeting of creditors in respect of the Plan be
held in either late September or early October, 2012.
The Plan is the result of extensive arm's length negotiations
between counsel to SFC, counsel to the Board, and the advisors to
an ad hoc group of the Company's noteholders. The Monitor and
its counsel have also been involved throughout the course of
negotiations. The Board of Directors of Sino-Forest believes
that the Plan represents the best available outcome in the
circumstances. Sino-Forest is working to implement the Plan as
soon as possible so as to preserve and maximize the value of its
enterprise.
Consistent with the agreement with an ad hoc committee of its
noteholders (the "Initial Consenting Noteholders") disclosed by
Sino-Forest on March 30, 2012, the Plan provides for a
restructuring transaction (the "Restructuring Transaction") under
which Sino-Forest would transfer substantially all of its assets,
other than certain excluded assets, to a newly formed entity
("Newco") to be owned by the "Affected Creditors" of Sino-Forest.
The class of Affected Creditors includes Sino-Forest's current
noteholders and certain other creditors of Sino-Forest, and
excludes unaffected claims, equity claims, related indemnity
claims, subsidiary intercompany claims, and certain other claims.
The assets transferred to Newco pursuant to the Restructuring
Transaction would include all of the shares of the Company's
directly owned subsidiaries which own, directly or indirectly,
all of the business operations of the Company. The assets
transferred to Newco would not include, among other things,
certain litigation claims of the Company against third parties
which would be transferred to a litigation trust to be
established to pursue such claims on behalf of the Affected
Creditors and certain other stakeholders, and cash in an amount
to be agreed to fund the Litigation Trust.
Generally, the Plan provides for treatment of claims as described
in Schedule "A" to this press release. Further information
regarding the treatment of claims and the other terms of the Plan
will be available in the Information Circular to be filed by the
Company, and in the Plan itself.
In order to be effective, the Plan must be approved by a majority
in number of Affected Creditors with proven claims, and two-
thirds in value of the proven claims held by the Affected
Creditors, in each case who vote on the Plan at the meeting of
Affected Creditors. The Plan is also subject to the approval of
the Court.
In addition, the Plan is subject to numerous conditions precedent
which must be satisfactory to the Company and the Initial
Consenting Noteholders, as well as receipt of necessary
regulatory approvals in People's Republic of China and Canada,
and satisfactory due diligence confirmation on the part of the
Initial Consenting Noteholders.

more than 150 years, Lehman Brothers has been a leader in the
global financial markets by serving the financial needs of
corporations, governmental units, institutional clients and
individuals worldwide.
Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Sept. 15, 2008
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 08-13555). Lehman's bankruptcy
petition disclosed US$639 billion in assets and US$613 billion in
debts, effectively making the firm's bankruptcy filing the
largest in U.S. history. Several other affiliates followed
thereafter.
Affiliates Merit LLC, LB Somerset LLC and LB Preferred Somerset
LLC sought for bankruptcy protection in December 2009.
The Debtors' bankruptcy cases are handled by Judge James M. Peck.
Harvey R. Miller, Esq., Richard P. Krasnow, Esq., Lori R. Fife,

No. 08-CIV-8119 (GEL)). James W. Giddens has been appointed as
trustee for the SIPA liquidation of the business of LBI.
The Bankruptcy Court approved Barclays Bank Plc's purchase of
Lehman Brothers' North American investment banking and capital
markets operations and supporting infrastructure for US$1.75
billion. Nomura Holdings Inc., the largest brokerage house in
Japan, purchased LBHI's operations in Europe for US$2 plus the
retention of most of employees. Nomura also bought Lehman's
operations in the Asia Pacific for US$225 million.
Lehman emerged from bankruptcy protection on March 6, 2012, more
than three years after it filed the largest bankruptcy in U.S.
history. Lehman is set to make its first payment to creditors
under its $65 billion payout plan on April 17, 2012.

ROAD KING: 2012 Interim Results No Impact on Moody's Ba3 Ratings
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service says that Road King Infrastructure
Limited's 2012 interim results are broadly in line with Moody's
expectation, and have no immediate impact on its Ba3 issuer and
bond ratings.
The ratings outlook remains negative.
"Road King reported improved contract property sales but lower
book revenue in 1H 2012, which are within Moody's expectations,"
says Franco Leung, a Moody's Assistant Vice President and
Analyst.
Road King attained contracted sales of RMB4.7 billion for 1H
2012, up by around 95% year-on-year, and reflect the improved
sales strategy employed by the company.
"However, its 1H 2012 profit before tax dropped by around 15% to
HKD572 million compared to the same period last year, and which
was mainly due to lower RMB-related exchange and property
revaluation gains," says Leung.
The company's EBITDA margin has been maintained at around 29%
owing to improved profitability of its property business, but its
adjusted EBITDA/interest coverage dropped below 3.0x.
Moody's expects the company's interest coverage to remain under
pressure at around 3.0x, as reflected in its current negative
ratings outlook.
Toll road revenues slightly declined as affected by the downturn
of the steel industry and some surface improvement works.
But Moody's expects the recent changes in government policies on
toll roads to have limited impact on Road King.
Road King redeemed its USD150 million floating-rate guaranteed
notes in May 2012. As a result, the company's adjusted
debt/capitalization dropped to around 48% as of June 2012.
Road King has maintained good liquidity by employing a cautious
approach in its land acquisitions and by improving its property
sales performance.
As of June 2012, it had a cash balance of about HKD4.2 billion,
compared with around HKD3.4 billion as of December 2011.
Moody's will continue to monitor the rollout of Road King's
contracted sales in 2012, as well as the profitability of its
project sales.
Road King's ratings could be under pressure for downgrade if (1)
it fails to achieve its sales target in 2012; (2) is unable to
maintain its adjusted EBITDA margin over 25%; (3) cash receipts
from its toll road businesses significantly and steadily fall
short of Moody's expectations; or (4) it is unable to maintain
its interest coverage above 3.0x.
The principal methodology used in rating Road King Infrastructure
was the Global Homebuilding Industry Methodology published in
March 2009.
Established in 1994, Road King Infrastructure Limited is a Hong
Kong-listed company with investments in toll roads as well as
investment projects in China.
STANLEY HO: Members' Final Meeting Set for Sept. 12

AIROX NIGEN: CRISIL Cuts Rating on INR126.9MM Loans to 'BB'
-----------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its rating on the long-term bank facilities
of Airox Nigen Equipments Pvt Ltd to 'CRISIL BB/Stable' from
'CRISIL BB+/Stable'; the rating on the company's short-term bank
facilities has been reaffirmed at 'CRISIL A4+.
Amount
Facilities (INR Mln) Ratings
---------- --------- -------
Bank Guarantee 100 CRISIL A4+ (Reaffirmed)
Cash Credit 80 CRISIL BB/Stable (Downgraded
from CRISIL BB+/Stable)
Proposed Short-Term 2.1 CRISIL A4+ (Reaffirmed)
Bank Loan Facility
Rupee Term Loan 39.4 CRISIL BB/Stable Downgraded
from CRISIL BB+/Stable)
Standby Line of Credit 7.5 CRISIL BB/Stable (Downgraded
from CRISIL BB+/Stable)
The downgrade reflects the pressure on ANEPL's business risk
profile backed by cancellation of orders because of slowdown in
the power sector, and stretch in the company's working capital
requirements with gross current asset days at 186 as against the
expected levels of 140 because of stretch in receivables. The
downgrade also reflects deterioration in ANEPL's liquidity marked
by high bank limit utilization at 95 per cent (including ad hoc
facilities utilisation) over the 12 months ended June 30, 2012.
ANEPL's bank lines have been highly utilised, mainly because of
debt funding of the company's large working capital requirements.
The ratings continue to reflect the extensive experience of
ANEPL's promoter in the compressed air and gas equipment
business. This rating strength is partially offset by the
company's large working capital requirements, and average
financial risk profile marked by a modest net worth.
Outlook: Stable
CRISIL believes that ANEPL will continue to benefit over the
medium term from its established customer relationships and its
promoter's extensive industry experience. The outlook may be
revised to 'Positive' in case the company achieves significantly
higher-than-expected improvement in its scale of operations and
profitability, while it maintains its current financial risk
profile. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if
ANEPL reports pressure on its scale of operations or
profitability, or if there is further stretch in its working
capital cycle, leading to deterioration in its business and
financial risk profiles.
About Airox Nigen
ANEPL was set up in 1994 by Mr. Anil Agarwal. It manufactures
compressed air and gas equipment, which include hydrogen plants,
nitrogen pumps, and air-driers. The company has three
manufacturing facilities in Gujarat. ANEPL's equipment is used
primarily in the packaging, pharmaceutical and textile
industries, and in power plants. The company also offers after-
sales services and spare parts to its existing clients. In 2010-
11 (refers to financial year, April 1 to March 31), ANEPL
expanded its manufacturing capacity by setting up a plant in
Rewari (Haryana) at a cost of INR43.3 million, which was funded
through debt of INR30 million and promoter's contribution and
internal accruals for the rest.
ANEPL's profit after tax (PAT) is estimated at INR14.83 million
on net sales of INR510.77 million for 2011-12, against a PAT of
INR12.06 million on net sales of INR160.41 million for 2010-11.

Overdraft Facility 30 CRISIL B+/Stable (Assigned)
The ratings reflect DEPL's modest scale of operations in a highly
fragmented, and competitive telecom infrastructure industry,
working-capital-intensive operations, and small and stagnant
revenues. These rating weaknesses are partially offset by the
benefits that the company derives from the experience of its
promoters in the telecom infrastructure industry, which has
helped build the company's long-standing relationships, resulting
in repeat orders from, its clients.
Outlook: Stable
CRISIL believes that DEPL will maintain its business risk
profile, supported by promoters' extensive industry experience
and established relationships with its customers. The outlook may
be revised to 'Positive' if DEPL strengthens its business risk
profile, most likely by increasing revenues and improving
profitability significantly, while maintaining comfortable
capital structure and improving its working capital cycle.
Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if DEPL's
revenues and profitability decline significantly, there are
considerable delays in realisation of receivables, or if the
company undertakes larger-than-expected, debt-funded capital
expenditure programme, thereby weakening its financial risk
profile, especially liquidity.

operator for telecom infrastructure projects. It was established
as Dinesh Associates in 1990 and was reconstituted as a company
in 2006. The company is promoted by Mr. Dinesh KK and his wife,

sales of INR306.9 million for 2009-10
KAMDHENU COMMERCIAL: CRISIL Puts Junk Ratings on INR700MM Loans
---------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its ratings on the bank facilities of
Kamdhenu Commercial (India) Pvt Ltd to 'CRISIL D/CRISIL D' from
'CRISIL BB-/Stable/CRISIL A4+'. The downgrade reflects instances
of delay by KCIPL in servicing its debt and devolvement of letter
of credit; the irregularities have been caused by the company's
weak liquidity.

KCIPL also has a below-average financial risk profile, marked by
a small net worth and weak debt protection metrics, exposure to
intense competition in the edible oil industry, and short track
record of operations. These rating weaknesses are partially
offset by the extensive industry experience of KCIPL's promoters.
Set up in 2010, KCIPL trades in edible oils, including sunflower
oil, soybean oil, rice bran oil, and palm oil. The company was
set up by Mr. Naresh Kumar Agarwal and his family members. KCIPL
commenced operations in 2010-11 (refers to financial year,
April 1 to March 31).
SHREE RAM: CRISIL Rates INR300MM LT Loan at 'CRISIL B'

facilities of Shree Ram Builders (part of the Mehta group).

Proposed Long-Term 300 CRISIL B/Stable
Bank Loan Facility
The rating reflects the Mehta group's exposure to risks related
to implementation and sale ability of its ongoing projects and
susceptibility to cyclicality and risks inherent in the real
estate sector in India. These rating weaknesses are partially
offset by the extensive experience of the group's partners' in
the real estate sector.
For arriving at its rating, CRISIL has combined the financial and
business risk profiles of SRB and Jayshree Builders. The entities
are together referred to as the Mehta group. This is because both
the entities have common management, promoters, a common brand
name, and fungible cash flows.
Outlook: Stable
CRISIL believes that the Mehta group will maintain its credit
risk profile, backed by the extensive experience of its partners
in the real estate sector, over the medium term. The outlook may
be revised to 'Positive' if the Mehta group receives more-than-
expected customer advances for the ongoing projects, thereby
substantially improving its overall liquidity. Conversely, the
outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the firm faces time or
cost overruns in its projects and reports less-than-expected sale
ability.
About the Group
SRB and Jayshree Builders are two partnership firms, which are
engaged in real-estate development in Central Mumbai region
(Thane, Kalyan, and Kalwa). Jayshree Builders was established by
Mr. Ramesh Mehta in 1978 to undertake construction activities. In
the 1980s, Mr. Ramesh Mehta also established SRB. Mr. Ramesh
Mehta's was joined by his two sons, Mr. Deepak Mehta and Mr.
Ketan Mehta, in 1985 and 1993, respectively.
SUJAN BARRE: CRISIL Upgrades Rating on INR75MM Loan to 'BB+'
------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has upgraded its rating on the long-term bank facilities
of Sujan Barre Thomas Antivibration Systems Pvt Ltd to 'CRISIL
BB+/Stable' from 'CRISIL BB-/Stable' and has reaffirmed the
short-term rating at 'CRISIL A4+'.
Amount
Facilities (INR Mln) Ratings

Cash Credit 40 CRISIL BB+/Stable (Upgraded
from CRISIL BB-/Stable)
Letter of Credit 10 CRISIL A4+ (Reaffirmed)
Rupee Term Loan 35 CRISIL BB+/Stable (Upgraded
from CRISIL BB-/Stable)
The rating upgrade reflects CRISIL's belief that SBTPL will
maintain its improved business risk profile over the medium term,
supported by stabilisation of operations, healthy capacity
utilisation and moderate operating margin. SBTPL's revenues
increased by around 40 per cent to an estimated INR519 million in
2011-12 (refers to financial year, April 1 to March 31) on
account of increase in capacity utilisation and production of
high-value products. SBTPL has also started manufacturing metal-
bonded rubber products having higher realisations. Consequently,
its operating margin improved to an estimated 12 per cent in
2011-12 from 4 per cent in 2010-11. Driven by additions to the
product profile and increase in capacity utilisation, CRISIL
believes that SBTPL will sustain its operating margins at about
12 per cent over the medium term. The company is now a Tier-I
supplier for Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd's Mahindra XUV 500 (launched
in 2011-12), which has driven SBTPL's growth. A subdued demand in
passenger car vehicles segment is expected to moderate SBTPL's
growth. However, CRISIL believes that SBTPL's improvement in its
product profile driven by purchase of intellectual property from
its joint venture (JV) partner, Cooper Standard France will help
SBTPL to sustain its growth momentum.
The rating upgrade also factors in CRISIL's belief that SBTPL
will maintain its improved capital structure, backed by healthy
debt-protection metrics and low gearing. Healthy cash accruals,
arising from healthy operating margin, have resulted in an
improvement in its debt-protection metrics. Its estimated
interest coverage and net cash accruals to total debt ratios are
about 5 times for 2011-12 and 20 per cent for March 31, 2012
respectively. CRISIL believes that SBTPL will maintain the
improvement in its credit risk profile, supported by moderate
revenue growth and stable profitability.
The ratings reflect SBTPL's established customer profile and
technological expertise, promoters' established track record in
the automotive components industry, and above-average financial
risk profile marked by healthy debt-protection metrics. These
rating strengths are partially offset by SBTPL's exposure to
customer concentration risks, limited pricing flexibility and
susceptibility of its operating margin to volatility in raw
material prices.
Outlook: Stable
CRISIL believes that SBTPL will continue to benefit from its
established clientele, promoters' established industry track
record, and above-average debt-protection metrics. The outlook
may be revised to 'Positive' if SBTPL registers higher-than-
expected revenue growth while maintaining its profitability and
debt-protection metrics. Conversely, the outlook may be revised
to 'Negative' if SBTPL undertakes a larger-than-expected, debt-
funded, capital expenditure programme, or if its profitability
declines materially, resulting in significant deterioration in
its debt-protection metrics.
About Sujan Barre

2010-11, the company reported a PAT of INR2.6 million on net
sales of INR369 million.
UNION BANK OF INDIA: Moody's Assigns Rating to US$ Senior Notes
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned a Baa3 rating to Union
Bank of India's (UBI) proposed USD senior notes drawdown from its
US$2 billion Medium Term Note Programme through its Hong Kong
branch.
The outlook for the rating is stable.
Ratings Rationale
The Baa3 rating is underpinned by UBI's: (1) weaker financial
metrics particularly, its comparatively modest loss-absorption
cushion vis-a-vis a high level of troubled assets, but low
provision coverage; (2) modest profitability; and (3) franchise
among the top ten public sector banks in India by assets; and (4)
close relationship with the government of India, via the latter's
54.35% holding, and as evidenced by repeated capital infusions
into the bank.
Therefore, Moody's assessment that the probability of systemic
support for UBI, if needed, is very high, and results in a two-
notch lift in its global local currency deposit rating of Baa3
from its standalone rating of D/ba2.
The methodology used in this rating is Moody's Consolidated
Global Bank Rating Methodology published in June 2012.
Union Bank of India, headquartered in Mumbai, had assets of
INR3.96 trillion at June 2012.
VIKRAM PVT: CRISIL Assigns 'B' Rating to INR131MM Loans

---------- --------- -------
Proposed Long-Term 13 CRISIL B/Stable (Assigned)

Bank Guarantee 10 CRISIL A4 (Assigned)
Cash Credit 118 CRISIL B/Stable (Assigned)
The ratings reflect VPL's large working capital requirements and
exposure to stabilisation- and implementation-related risks
associated with its planned projects. These rating strengths are
partially offset by the experience of VPL's promoters in related
industry.
Outlook: Stable
CRISIL believes that VPL will continue to benefit over the medium
term from the experience of its promoters in related industry.
The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if VPL completes its
proposed capital expenditure (capex) sooner than expected or
improves its capital structure significantly, backed by fresh
capital infusion by the promoters, or generates more-than-
expected cash accruals. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to
'Negative' if VPL faces any substantial time or cost overrun in
its proposed capex, or generates less-than-expected cash
accruals, leading to weakening in its liquidity.
About Vikram Pvt
VPL was incorporated in 2000. The company manufactures sponge
iron at its unit in Lahunipara (Orissa). It also engages in
opportunistic trading in steel products, such as structural and
torque steel. VPL's day-to-day operations are managed by Mr.
Dibyaranjan Behera.
VISHNU COTTON: Delay in Loan Payment Cues CRISIL Junk Ratings
-------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL D/CRISIL D' ratings to the bank
facilities of Vishnu Cotton Mills Ltd. The ratings reflect
instances of delay by VCML in servicing its debt; the delays have
been caused by the company's weak liquidity.

VCML also has a weak capital structure, marked by small net worth
and high gearing. The ratings also factor in the susceptibility
of the company's profitability to volatility in cotton prices.
These rating weaknesses are partially offset by the extensive
experience of VCML's promoters in the spinning industry.
Vishnu Cotton Mills Ltd, incorporated in 1994, manufactures
cotton yarn and is also engaged in fabric dyeing. VCML's day-to-
day operations are looked after by its managing director, Mr.
Pran Krishna Dey.

BUKIT MAKMUR: Moody's Withdraws 'Ba3' Corporate Family Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has withdrawn the Ba3 corporate family
rating of PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama's due to business
reasons.
Ratings Rationale
Moody's has withdrawn the rating for its own business reasons.
Buma is wholly owned by PT Delta Dunia Makmur Tbk, which is in
turn 40% owned by a consortium led by Northstar. Buma, Delta's
principal asset, is one of Indonesia's leading mining services
contractors providing full-mining services for many of the
largest coal mine companies in Indonesia.
MNC SKY: S&P Raises Corp. Credit Rating to 'B+'; Outlook Stable
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its foreign currency
long-term corporate credit rating on Indonesia-based pay-TV
operator PT MNC Sky Vision to 'B+' from 'B'.
"At the same time, Standard & Poor's raised its issue rating on
the US$165 million 12.75% senior secured notes due November 2015
to 'B+' from 'B'. Aerospace Satellite Corp. Holding BV, a
special-purpose finance vehicle fully owned by MSV, issued these
notes. MSV, PT Mediacitra Indostar, and Aerospace Satellite Corp.
BV unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the notes," S&P
said.
"We raised our rating on MSV to reflect our expectation that the
company will sustain the improvement in its financial performance
over the next two years," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst
Xavier Jean. "An IPO in July this year and a better-than-expected
operating performance will underpin the company's financial
performance, in our view."
"We revised our assessment of MSV's financial risk profile to
'significant' from 'highly leveraged,' as defined in our
criteria," S&P said.
"We believe MSV's capital structure and funding flexibility have
improved following the IPO. In Standard & Poor's view, the
company does not need incremental debt for our estimate of its
capital spending plan over the next two years at least," Mr. Jean
said.
"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that MSV's operating
performance will remain strong through 2013, resulting in
negative free operating cash flows bottoming out in 2012. We also
expect the company's financial risk profile to improve, with a
debt-to-EBITDA ratio below 1.5x and a debt-to-debt-plus-equity
ratio of less than 40% by the end of 2013," S&P said.
"An upgrade is less likely at this stage, given MSV's 'weak'
business risk profile, single-satellite concentration risks, and
high capital spending plan. However, we could raise the rating if
MSV improves its scale further through a successful execution of
its growth strategy. An upgrade would hinge on the absence of
intercompany or related-party transactions that weaken MSV's
credit profile and on the credit profile of the company's major
shareholder, PT Global Mediacom Tbk. (not rated) remaining stable
or improving," S&P said.
"We could lower the rating if we expect MSV's debt-to-EBITDA
ratio to increase beyond 3x on a sustained basis. We believe this
could materialize if the company's revenue growth is below 5%
with a gross margin (excluding depreciation) of less than 30% or
its annual capital spending is significantly higher than our
expectation and requires more debt-funding," S&P said.
"We could also lower the rating if: (1) MSV's liquidity
deteriorates rapidly because of weaker operating performance; (2)
the company's operating cash flows weaken due to operating
problems with its satellite; (3) MSV engages in related-party
transactions that weaken its credit profile; or (4) we consider
the credit quality of PT Global Mediacom Tbk. to have materially
declined," S&P said.

SOUTHERN AQUA: Placed in Receivership
-------------------------------------
The Southland Times reports that Bluff-based companies Southern
Aqua Adventures Ltd and Haines Holdings Ltd are in receivership.
Stephen Tubbs, chartered accountant, and Colin Gower, insolvency
practitioner, both of Christchurch, were appointed joint
receivers at the end of last month, The Southland Times relates.
According to the report, Mr. Tubbs said he could not comment on
the receivership because of privacy rules. "It is not our policy
. . . to make public comment beyond our statutory duties to
provide reports to the Companies Office or communicate with
creditors."
The first receivers report will be filed in about two months with
the Companies Office, the report notes.
The Southland Times says Companies Office website records showed
Michael Lewis John Haines, of Bluff, as a director in both
companies.

DCS ASSET: Fitch Affirms All Rating on Five Note Classes
--------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed all rated classes of DCS Asset Funding
Pte. Ltd. DCS is a securitisation of credit card and charge card
receivables in Singapore originated by Diners Club (Singapore)
Private Limited (Diners Singapore). The rating actions are as
follows:
-- SGD6m working capital facility due March 2014 affirmed
at 'A-sf'; Outlook Stable;
-- SGD100m class A1 fixed-rate notes due March 2016 affirmed at
'A-sf', Outlook Stable;
-- SGD29.8m class A2 floating-rate notes due March 2016
affirmed at 'A-sf', Outlook Stable;
-- SGD10.2m class B floating-rate notes due March 2016 affirmed
at 'BBBsf', Outlook Stable;
-- SGD8.5m class C floating-rate notes due March 2016 affirmed
at 'BBsf', Outlook Stable;
The affirmations reflect Fitch's view that the performance of the
underlying assets has remained well within expectations, and that
credit enhancement is sufficient to support the current ratings.
The agency's forecast of continued economic growth and low
unemployment in Singapore is supportive of continued good asset
performance. Fitch believes credit enhancement is sufficient,
based on the agency's conservative base case assumptions. The
eligibility criteria and the early amortisation triggers also
provide structural protection to the transaction.
Delinquencies have been low with the highest three-month average
delinquency ratio (equivalent to 61-90 days past due) at 1.1%,
being well below the transaction trigger of 3%. The three-month
average delinquency ratio declined to 0.8% in July 2012, from
1.1% in April 2012, following a temporary increase in Q112 due to
a temporary disruption in staffing in the servicing department as
a result of the implementation of a new card management system in
December 2011. The three-month average default ratio stabilised
at 0.7% between May and July 2012, compared with the transaction
trigger of 2%.
The three-month average payment rate has been stable at around
21%-23% since closing; as at July 2012, this payment rate was
21%, versus the transaction trigger of 15%. The three-month
average excess spread, after the absorption of defaults has been
healthy at an average of 1% since closing.

CALIFORNIA WOW: Sued Over Unpaid Debt, Seeks Members Fee Increase
-----------------------------------------------------------------
pattayadailynews.com reports that members of the California Wow
Xperience fitness club are irate over a letter asking for a
membership fee increase, even after the fitness club closed
several branches. The company is being sued in Bankruptcy court
for unpaid debts of THB76 million, the report says.
According to the report, the ailing fitness club has gradually
closed various branches, including the last remaining Siam
Paragon branch.
pattayadailynews.com relates that Mr. Jirachai Multhongroi,
Secretary-General of the Office of Consumer Protection (OCP),
said he has received more than 100 complaints from fitness club
members since late April.
As a result, the report states, the Consumer Protection Board
called the entrepreneur to negotiate. At first, the company
welcomed canceled contracts by customers and was willing to pay
their damages. But the company later wrote a request to the
Consumer Protection Board to allow them to stop receiving the
complaints for a while, because the company was currently in the
process of financial recovery.
After its recovery, California Wow plans to allow customers to
visit any branch, and to extend memberships beyond a year.
According to pattayadailynews.com, the court confirmed that the
company had filed for reorganization, after a lawsuit by a
Bangkok bank in Bankruptcy Court, claiming unpaid debts of
THB75.78 million.
The next court hearing on the case is scheduled for August 18. A
decision is expected to be finalized by September 2012.

Tuesday's edition of the TCR-AP delivers a list of indicative
prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.
Prices are obtained by TCR-AP editors from a variety of outside
sources during the prior week we think are reliable. Those
sources may not, however, be complete or accurate. The Tuesday
Bond Pricing table is compiled on the Friday prior to
publication. Prices reported are not intended to reflect actual
trades. Prices for actual trades are probably different. Our
objective is to share information, not make markets in publicly
traded securities. Nothing in the TCR-AP constitutes an offer
or solicitation to buy or sell any security of any kind. It is
likely that some entity affiliated with a TCR-AP editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.
A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR-AP. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged. Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com
Friday's edition of the TCR-AP features a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on the
latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication. At first glance, this list may look like the
definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled. Assets, for example, reported at historical
cost net of depreciation may understate the true value of a
firm's assets. A company may establish reserves on its balance
sheet for liabilities that may never materialize. The prices at
which equity securities trade in public market are determined by
more than a balance sheet solvency test.
