S&PCORRECT: iQor Holdings Inc. Downgraded To 'B-' On Covenant Concerns; Issue Ratings Lowered One Notch Feb 12

Abstract
U.S. credit collections provider iQor Holdings Inc. has very limited cushion of around 5% under its term loans' leverage covenant. We believe the company will need to increase rolling-12-month EBITDA by approximately 10% from recent levels to meet the covenant beyond mid-2012, when it tightens from 4.75x to 4.25x.
