S&P kept Oracle investment grade. Its own numbers don’t support that call.
AI EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Credit rating agency S&P has maintained Oracle's investment-grade status despite questions regarding whether the company's financial metrics actually support that favorable rating. Observers note that while rating agencies typically allow firms time to establish their business models, the underlying data in this case appears inconsistent with the decision.
WHY IT MATTERS
This decision raises questions about the reliability of major credit rating agencies in accurately assessing the financial health and investment risk of major technology corporations.
I am not opposed to credit rating agencies giving companies time to prove their business models. However, the numbers must also make sense.
