Fresenius Finance B.V. -- Moody's assigns Baa3 rating to Fresenius SE's proposed EUR1.2 billion incremental senior credit facilities

Frankfurt am Main, November 07, 2013 -- Moody's Investors Service has today assigned a definitive Baa3 rating to EUR 1.2 billion incremental senior secured facilities syndicated by Fresenius Finance II B.V. and Fresenius SE & Co KGaA ("FSE" or "the group"), which include both term debt and revolving facilities and have the same instrument rating as existing senior secured facilities originally put in place in December 2012. The facilities are being put in place to primarily finance the acquisition of the majority of Rhoen Klinikum AG's hospitals, which remains subject to regulatory approvals. FSE's Ba1 Corporate Family Rating (CFR), Ba1-PD Probabiliy of Default (PDR) and unsecured ratings of its financing subsidiaries remain unchanged. The outlook on the ratings is negative.
