BLUESFEST ENT: Creditors Unlikely to Recover Full AUD7MM Owed
-------------------------------------------------------------
ABC News reports that creditors owed more than AUD7 million after
the sudden cancellation of Byron Bay's Bluesfest in March are
unlikely to recoup all of the money they are owed, a new financial
report has revealed.
The company running the festival went into liquidation in March,
three weeks before the Easter event was due to begin.
According to the ABC, Worrells, the liquidator appointed to handle
all financial matters for Bluesfest, on June 1 delivered its report
on the company's finances to the Australian Securities and
Investments Commission.
It found the company, operating under Bluesfest Enterprises and
Bluesfest Byron Bay, owed more than AUD7 million to over 900
creditors.
The report also detailed that the companies had only AUD300,664 in
the bank to pay their debts, the ABC discloses.
The ABC relates that the owners of Uniform Print Lab, a Tweed Heads
business listed as a creditor, said based on updates from the
liquidator ahead of the report's release, they did not expect to
get their money back.
Linda Sutton said her business was out of pocket more than
AUD90,000 when the festival was cancelled before it was paid for
merchandise, including 6,000 T-shirts bearing the Bluesfest logo.
"We've counted on the fact that we will be getting next to nothing.
That's why we've had to get loans and let a staff member go,
because we don't anticipate that there will be any recouping of our
losses," the ABC quotes Ms. Sutton as saying. "It's put us in a
horrible situation where we can't really pay ourselves much.
"We're going to survive it, but at what cost to us personally?"
BRIGHTE GREEN 2024-1: Moody's Ups Rating on Cl. F-C Notes from Ba1
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has upgraded the ratings on five classes of notes
issued by Brighte Green Trust 2024-1.
The affected ratings are as follows:
Issuer: Brighte Green Trust 2024-1
Class B-C Notes, Upgraded to Aaa (sf); previously on Mar 24, 2025
Upgraded to Aa1 (sf)
Class C-C Notes, Upgraded to Aa1 (sf); previously on Nov 20, 2025
Upgraded to Aa2 (sf)
Class D-C Notes, Upgraded to Aa3 (sf); previously on Mar 24, 2025
Upgraded to A2 (sf)
Class E-C Notes, Upgraded to Baa1 (sf); previously on Mar 24, 2025
Upgraded to Baa3 (sf)
Class F-C Notes, Upgraded to Baa3 (sf); previously on Nov 20, 2025
Upgraded to Ba1 (sf)
A comprehensive review of all credit ratings for the respective
transaction(s) has been conducted during a rating committee.
RATINGS RATIONALE
The upgrades were prompted by an increase in credit enhancement
available for the affected notes and collateral performance to
date.
No action was taken on the remaining rated classes in the
transaction as credit enhancement remains commensurate with the
current rating for the respective notes.
Following the May 2026 payment date, the note subordination
available for the Class B-C, D-C and E-C Notes has increased to
18.8%, 9.7% and 4.1%, respectively, from 14.9%, 7.2% and 2.4% at
the time of the last rating action for these notes in March 2025.
Note subordination available for the Class C-C and F-C Notes has
increased to 12.8% and 3.5%, respectively, from 12.0% and 2.6% at
the time of the last rating action for these notes in November
2025.
Principal collections have been distributed on a pro-rata basis
among the rated notes since the August 2025 payment date. Current
outstanding notes balance as a percentage of the total closing
balance is 42.1%.
As of end-April 2026, 1.2% of the outstanding pool was 30-plus days
delinquent and 0.2% was 90-plus days delinquent. The portfolio has
incurred 0.6% (as a percentage of the original portfolio balance)
of losses to date, all of which have been covered by excess
spread.
Based on the observed performance to date and loan attributes,
Moody's have lowered Moody's expected default assumption to 2.0% of
the outstanding pool balance (equivalent to 1.6% of the original
pool balance) from 2.25% of the outstanding balance (equivalent to
1.7% of the original balance) at the time of the last rating action
in November 2025. Moody's have also lowered Moody's Aaa portfolio
credit enhancement (PCE) assumption to 13% from 16% at the time of
the last rating action.
Moody's have considered sensitivity scenarios with various default
probability and higher PCE assumptions to evaluate the resiliency
of the note ratings.
The transaction is a securitisation of Australian unsecured
consumer Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL), and unsecured loan receivables
originated by Brighte Capital Pty Limited. The majority of
receivables are originated to homeowners to fund solar panel and
home batteries installations.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Consumer Loan
Securitizations" published in May 2026.
Factors that would lead to an upgrade or downgrade of the ratings:
Factors that could lead to an upgrade of the ratings include (1)
performance of the underlying collateral that is better than
Moody's expectations, and (2) an increase in credit enhancement
available for the notes.
Factors that could lead to a downgrade of the ratings include (1)
performance of the underlying collateral that is worse than Moody's
expectations, (2) a decrease in credit enhancement available for
the notes, and (3) a deterioration in the credit quality of the
transaction counterparties.

PANORAMA AUTO 2025-2P: Fitch Affirms 'BBsf' Rating on Class E Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has upgraded two and affirmed two classes of
asset-backed floating-rate notes from Panorama Auto Trust 2025-2P.
The Outlook is Positive on two notes and Stable on the remainder.
The transaction is backed by a pool of first-ranking Australian
automotive lease and loan receivables originated by Angle Auto
Finance Pty Ltd (AAF). The notes were issued by Perpetual Corporate
Trust Limited as trustee.
The upgrades were driven by the build-up of credit enhancement
(CE), while the Positive Outlooks reflect the relevant notes'
sensitivity to decreased defaults and increased recoveries against
its expected increase in CE over the next 12 to 24 months.
Entity/Debt Rating Prior
----------- ------ -----
Panorama Auto
Trust 2025-2P
B AU3FN0099412 LT AAAsf Upgrade AAsf
C AU3FN0099420 LT AA-sf Upgrade Asf
D AU3FN0099438 LT BBBsf Affirmed BBBsf
E AU3FN0099446 LT BBsf Affirmed BBsf
KEY RATING DRIVERS
Stable Asset Performance: Obligor default risk is a key assumption
in its quantitative analysis. As of end-March 2026, the
transaction's 30+ and 60+ day arrears were 1.1% and 0.5%,
respectively, which are below Fitch's 4Q25 ABS Performance Monitor
of 1.5% and 0.7%. Cumulative gross defaults currently track at
0.2%. Fitch applied the same base cases, multiples, and haircuts
used at closing for each sub-group, weighted according to the
current sub-group proportions in the pool. Its base-case gross loss
expectations and 'AAAsf' default multiples at closing were as
follows:
Novated leases: 1.0% (7.5x)
Consumer loans: 3.5% (5.25x)
Commercial loans: 4.0% (5.25x)
The recovery base case for electric vehicles (EVs) is 24.0%, with a
'AAAsf' recovery haircut of 60.0%, and for non-EVs 35.0%, with a
'AAAsf' recovery haircut of 50.0%. The weighted-average (WA)
base-case default assumption is 2.5% and the 'AAAsf' default
multiple is 5.6x, in line with the closing assumption.
CE Supports Ratings: Structural features include a liquidity
facility sized at 1.3% of the invested amount of the notes (other
than the class G notes), which is sufficient to mitigate Fitch's
payment interruption risk. Updated cash flow analysis was performed
and incorporates Fitch's default and recovery expectations,
portfolio compositions and the build-up of CE.
The transaction is currently paying down principal sequentially
until the stepdown criteria are met. The class A to E notes will
receive principal repayments pro rata upon satisfaction of the
stepdown criteria. During the pro rata period, the rated notes
benefit from some increase in CE as a percentage, since the class G
notes' pro rata allocation is redistributed among the rated notes.
Once pro rata paydown is triggered, the transaction will continue
amortising on a pro rata basis until either the clean-up call date
is reached or performance deteriorates such that the stepdown
criteria are no longer satisfied.
Low Operational and Servicing Risk: All receivables were originated
by AAF, which demonstrated adequate capability as originator,
underwriter and servicer. Servicer disruption risk is mitigated by
back-up servicing arrangements. The nominated back-up servicer is
Perpetual Corporate Trust. Fitch undertook an operational review
and found that the operations of the servicer were comparable with
those of other auto lenders.
Tight Labour Market Supports Outlook: Portfolio performance is
supported by Australia's continued economic growth and tight labour
market. GDP growth was 2.6% in 2025 and unemployment was 4.5% in
April 2026. Fitch forecasts GDP growth of 2.4% in 2026 and 2.1% in
2027, with unemployment at 4.5% in both years.
RATING SENSITIVITIES
Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade
Transaction performance may be affected by changes in market
conditions and the economic environment. Weakening asset
performance is strongly correlated with increasing levels of
delinquencies and defaults that could reduce the CE available to
the notes.
Unanticipated increases in the frequency of defaults and decreases
in recoveries on defaulted receivables could produce loss levels
higher than Fitch's base case, and are likely to result in a
decline in CE and remaining loss-coverage levels available to the
notes. Decreased CE may make certain note ratings susceptible to
negative rating action, depending on the extent of the coverage
decline.
Hence, Fitch conducts sensitivity analysis by stressing a
transaction's initial base-case assumptions; these include
increasing WA defaults and decreasing the WA recovery rate (WARR).
Downgrade Sensitivities
Notes: B / C / D / E

10% WA foreclosure frequency (WAFF) increase: AA+sf / A+sf / BBBsf

than Bsf
50% WAFF increase / 50% WARR decrease: A+sf / BBB+sf / BB-sf / less
than Bsf
Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade
An upgrade could result from economic conditions, loan performance
and credit losses that are better than Fitch's baseline scenario or
sufficient build-up of CE that would fully compensate for credit
losses and cash flow stresses commensurate with higher rating
scenarios, all else being equal.
The class B notes are rated 'AAAsf', which is the highest level on
Fitch's scale and cannot be upgraded. Therefore, upgrade
sensitivities for these notes are not relevant.
Upgrade Sensitivities
Notes: C / D / E
Rating: AA-sf / BBBsf / BBsf

USE OF THIRD PARTY DUE DILIGENCE PURSUANT TO SEC RULE 17G -10
Form ABS Due Diligence-15E was not provided to, or reviewed by,
Fitch in relation to this rating action.
DATA ADEQUACY
Fitch has checked the consistency and plausibility of the
information it has received about the performance of the asset pool
and the transaction. Fitch has not reviewed the results of any
third-party assessment of the asset portfolio information or
conducted a review of origination files as part of its ongoing
monitoring.
Prior to the transaction closing, Fitch reviewed the results of a
third-party assessment conducted on the asset portfolio information
and concluded that there were no findings that affected the rating
analysis.
Overall, and together with any assumptions referred to above,
Fitch's assessment of the information relied upon for the agency's
rating analysis according to its applicable rating methodologies
indicates that it is adequately reliable.
ESG Considerations
Panorama Auto Trust 2025-2P, in which EVs form 12.5% of the pool,
has an ESG Relevance Score (RS) of '4' for Energy Management, which
has a negative impact on the credit profile, and is relevant to the
ratings in conjunction with other factors. The ESG RS is higher
than the baseline RS of '2' for this general issue in the
Australian auto sector. There is limited credit performance data
for EVs, and available market data show notable differences in
recoveries between EVs and non-EVs. Fitch's analytical approach for
the transaction was not adjusted, due purely to the "green" nature
of the underlying collateral, but Fitch referenced available market
data for EVs in determining its recovery assumptions.
The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.
SOUTHERN CROSS: Axes Up to 300 Jobs Amid Downgrade
--------------------------------------------------
The Australian Financial Review reports that Southern Cross Media
will axe up to 300 jobs and has written down the value of an old
television deal by AUD70 million as it attempts to relieve cost
pressures and focus on buying new Australian content.
The job losses are part of an expanded cost reduction program
expected to deliver AUD150 million in annual savings, the Financial
Review relates.
According to the Financial Review, the announcement coincided with
a trading update that warned the business, which includes
broadcaster Channel Seven, The West Australian newspaper and radio
networks Triple M and Hit, would deliver worse than anticipated
results for the financial year.
In an email to staff, seen by The Australian Financial Review,
Southern Cross' new chief executive, Rohan Lund, said the company's
businesses were under pressure from a tightening advertising sector
and global macroeconomic events.
"To create the space we need to deliver on the scale and trust of
our audio, publishing and television platforms, we have no choice
but to reset the cost base," the Financial Review quotes Mr. Lund
as saying.
Southern Cross said it expected revenue for this financial year to
be between AUD1.86 and AUD1.87 billion, 2.5 per cent below its
previous guidance, the Financial Review relays.
The company said this reflected less income from advertising, which
was partially offset by revenue-share improvements and synergies
from the merger.
It said the job cuts were designed to remove duplicate roles,
automate processes and focus on content acquisition, the Financial
Review relays. It announced an onerous contract provision of AUD65
million to AUD70 million on an old TV deal, but did not disclose
which one.
It said the changes would lift reported earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortisation by AUD5 million this financial
year and AUD30 million in the following year.
"Structural changes in the markets in which we operate are
increasingly favouring premium, trusted and local content," the
company said. "The cost reduction program will create a leaner,
more flexible, cost base required . . . to be competitive in
pursuing that opportunity."
Seven has already expressed interest in acquiring a small part of
the rights to the National Rugby League season, though Foxtel boss
Patrick Delany is hoping it coughs up more money as part of a joint
bid that would ultimately cost rival broadcaster Nine the
free-to-air rights it has held for decades.
The Financial Review says Southern Cross' problem is that it cannot
air NRL games on its main channel at the same time as AFL.
Australian Rugby League Commission chairman Peter V'landys has
previously said all NRL matches must be on the primary free-to-air
channel in every market - a request that cannot be met given
Channel Seven's existing long-term AFL agreement.
The cost-out program has expanded by about AUD120 million from the
initial AUD30 million in savings planned when Southern Cross and
Seven merged in January and planned to form a AUD420 million media
group that would appeal to investors.
It was structured with Southern Cross owning 50.1 per cent and
Seven West the remainder, yielding Kerry Stokes, SWM's biggest
shareholder, AUD180 million in tax credits. Since then, more than
AUD150 million has been wiped off the combined company and a range
of key executives, including chief executive Jeff Howard, have been
forced to leave the business.
Southern Cross chairman Heith Mackay-Cruise, one of the critical
players in the merger, resigned in early May following a
shareholder revolt and will be replaced by long-time Seven director
Teresa Dyson, the Financial Review notes.
Bruce McWilliam, Kerry Stokes' former close lieutenant and a former
commercial director at Seven West, spent AUD14 million buying a 5
per cent stake in Southern Cross.

ULTRA COMMERCE: Taps Cor Cordis as Voluntary Administrators
-----------------------------------------------------------
Ultra Commerce (UC), a global AI ecommerce infrastructure platform,
has appointed Kate Conneely and Rahul Goyal of Cor Cordis as
voluntary administrators of its Australian operations. UC's
overseas subsidiaries will continue to operate with support from
the administrators to ensure business continuity across the broader
group.
Over the past 12 months, UC has sought to secure strategic
investment and/or a sale of the business, attracting engagement
from several interested parties. The process highlighted strong
market interest in UC's platform, technology and growth potential,
while also highlighting the need to simplify UC's capital structure
to support future investment and maximise value.
UC's core business remains operationally strong, supported by a
differentiated platform, established customer relationships and a
clear pathway to improved earnings performance. However, UC's
complex capital structure and broad shareholder base limited its
ability to secure the funding required to implement the next phase
of its strategic plan.
The Board determined that appointing voluntary administrators was
in the best interests of stakeholders. The voluntary administration
process is expected to provide a more effective framework to
simplify UC's capital structure, explore recapitalisation
opportunities and position the business for future growth.
The administrators will work closely with management to continue
executing the business plan, with operations continuing as usual.
Customers will continue to be supported, and UC intends to maintain
service continuity while advancing product and service
initiatives.
During the restructuring process, the administrators will explore
options for new investment into a simplified corporate structure.
Administrator Rahul Goyal said, "The flexibility of the voluntary
administration process provides an opportunity to pursue these
outcomes in a more efficient and value-maximising way, including
with the support of existing investors who remain engaged with the
business".
Further updates will be provided to stakeholders as the
restructuring process progresses.
Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, Ultra Commerce (UC) is an
enterprise commerce technology company that provides a composable,
cloud-native e-commerce platform for B2B, B2C, and marketplace
businesses.
WATERPOINT PLUMBING: First Creditors' Meeting Set for June 18
-------------------------------------------------------------
A first meeting of the creditors in the proceedings of Waterpoint
Plumbing and Gas Pty. Ltd. will be held on June 18, 2026, at 10:00
a.m. via Microsoft Teams.
Amanda Lott of ACRIS was appointed as administrator of the company
on June 5, 2026.
ZOYA INVESTMENTS: Pays AUD2MM to Creditors After Empire Collapses
-----------------------------------------------------------------
ABC News reports that a company that owned a network of petrol
stations across Australia has struck a deal to repay a fraction of
its debts arising from environmental contamination at a site
earmarked for a local hospital, after its directors were accused of
selling off the company's properties in the lead-up to its
collapse.
The liquidator of Zoya Investments had claimed its former directors
used company funds to purchase multi-million-dollar Sydney homes,
while alleging other properties owned by the failed firm were sold
to family members and other companies they directed shortly before
it went under.
According to the ABC, the allegations were part of Federal Court
proceedings that were never tested and have since been dismissed
after the liquidator accepted a settlement on behalf of the petrol
company's creditors.
The ABC relates that the ex-directors, Newcastle businessmen Rizwan
Rana and Satwinder Singh, have strenuously denied any wrongdoing,
saying that assets were sold to pay off the company's debts before
it went bust, and that temporary company loans used to purchase
residential homes were repaid.
Zoya Investments, which leased petrol stations across New South
Wales, Queensland, Western Australia and South Australia, entered
liquidation in April 2024.
Just a month prior, developer Seaforth Securities won a default
judgment against the petrol business, with the NSW Supreme Court
finding a service station in the Central Coast region of Kanwal was
leaking into their property next door, according to the ABC.
The ABC relates that Seaforth was awarded AUD9.3 million in damages
after the court heard it had missed out on a lucrative deal to sell
its land for a hospital to be built due to the contamination.
Seaforth was one of two major creditors left out of pocket from
Zoya's collapse, with the Australian Tax Office also owed worth of
AUD4 million.
The ABC, citing documents filed with the corporate regulator, says
after the liquidator lodged proceedings in the Federal Court in a
bid to recoup funds on creditors' behalf, Zoya's directors offered
to pay AUD2 million to settle Zoya's debts and have the case
dismissed.
According to the ABC, Seaforth director Bruce Johnson said this
deal meant his company recently ended up with about 3 cents for
every AUD1 it was owed.
The liquidator accepted the settlement after considering potential
defences that the directors could raise and the likelihood that
protracted legal action would deplete the amount recoverable.
The ABC relates that Mr. Johnson said the settlement meant his
business received only AUD300,000 for its debts, which is what was
left after legal and liquidator fees were paid, and his land
remained unusable.
"The land is still unsaleable as of today and maybe for the next
two years," the ABC quotes Mr. Johnson as saying.
"The way I feel about the whole scenario of this is that we've been
hard done by.
"I feel completely let down by the whole system. It's very
unfair."

CHINA EVERGRANDE: Some PwC China Partners Worry About Fallout
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bloomberg News reports that the liquidation of China Evergrande
Group, the collapsed property developer, is raising concerns among
some partners at its former auditor PricewaterhouseCoopers China
about the potential impact on their own finances.
Bloomberg relates that several partners at PwC's Hong Kong and
mainland China affiliates said they are exploring strategies to
safeguard personal assets, in case legal and regulatory challenges
facing the firms ever spill over into any financial or legal
burdens for themselves. One said he has even contemplated divorce
as a means to shield wealth, while another is cutting education
budgets for his children.
A couple of former senior leaders at the Hong Kong affiliate who
departed in recent years said they are also considering steps to
protect assets. Current and former partners at PwC who spoke for
this story asked not to be identified because the information is
private, Bloomberg says.
According to Bloomberg, Evergrande's liquidators have claimed
"negligence" and "misrepresentation" in the auditing work done by
PwC's mainland and Hong Kong affiliates for the failed property
giant. They are seeking CNY57 billion in a lawsuit against
PricewaterhouseCoopers International and the affiliates, lawyers
said in court in May. That comes after Hong Kong's accounting
watchdog said PwC audits had "particularly egregious" deficiencies
that contributed to Evergrande inflating reported profits and
liquidity.
Bloomberg says the amount that liquidators are seeking marks one of
the largest corporate claims ever in Hong Kong, and will be the
highest-profile test in Greater China of the extent to which audit
firms could be held liable when clients are accused of wrongdoing.
It also underscores continued fallout from Evergrande's default on
US dollar bonds in 2021, a pivotal moment in a broader property
crisis in China that's led to record debt failures and an economic
slowdown.
According to Bloomberg, the partners said they were not directly
involved in auditing Evergrande. Even so, some are worried that
liquidators might eventually bring lawsuits against them. Another
concern is the risk that they will be asked to help cover any legal
damages through their equity in the firms. They also fear that the
broader financial impact on the businesses could affect their
compensation packages.
A spokesperson for PwC China declined to comment on ongoing
litigation, Bloomberg notes. "Our businesses continue to perform
well and we remain focused on delivering high-quality outcomes for
our clients, supporting our people, and investing in the future of
the firm and our profession in China," the spokesperson said.

CHINA FORTUNE: Builder Names Consortium as Restructuring Investor
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Yicai Global reports that shares of China Fortune Land Development,
a developer in court-led debt restructuring, fell after it said a
consortium has been appointed as the firm's restructuring investor.
China Fortune [SHA: 600340] closed 5.2 percent lower at CNY1.29 (19
US cents) a share on June 11, Yicai notes. Due to the Shanghai
Stock Exchange issuing a delisting risk warning, the stock's daily
trading band has been narrowed to 5 percent from 10 percent.
The committee formed to select China Fortune Land's restructuring
investor has picked a consortium consisting of Chengfengerlai
Digital Technology and Nanyang Mulanhua Real Estate, the
Langfang-based builder announced on June 10, Yicai relays.
Established in 2023, Chengfengerlai mainly provides computing power
trading services to artificial intelligence companies. Founder Chen
Yuan was previously general manager of Alibaba Group Holding's
global technical services department.
Mulanhua Real Estate is a small private developer set up in 2017
and based in Henan province. It has a housing project there
covering about 19,814 square meters, with plans for 892
households.
China Fortune Land fell into a debt crisis in 2021, Yicai notes.
Last November, it faced a judicial restructuring application from
its creditor Longcheng Construction Engineering after failing to
repay maturing debts, leading it to enter a pre-restructuring
process and start selecting a restructuring investor.
China Fortune Land has posted annual losses since 2023. Its net
loss ballooned 375 percent to CNY22.9 billion (USD3.4 billion) last
year, while revenue plunged 64 percent to CNY8.6 billion (USD1.3
billion), Yicai discloses. For the first quarter of this year, the
loss narrowed 37 percent to CNY1.7 billion from a year earlier, but
revenue fell 28 percent to CNY853 million (USD126 million).
As of Dec. 31, China Fortune Land had net assets of minus CNY17.7
billion. If the company cannot return its net assets to positive
territory by the end of this year, it will be forced off the stock
exchange, Yicai says.

weaknesses.
Key weaknesses
* Ongoing delays: In September 2018, ICL's utilisation of cash
credit facilities was more than the drawing power for a period of
exceeding 30 consecutive days, hence, the rating was downgraded to
CARE D. In their auditor's report for FY26, ICL's auditor stated
that the company has completed one-time settlement (OTS) with its
lenders in quarter ending June 30, 2025, and the auditor has issued
an audit report for FY26 without any qualification and as on March
31, 2025, its debt stood at INR10.8 crore.
* Declining scale and weak profitability: The company's net loan
book has been shrinking over the years, since FY19 from INR144.41
crore to INR30.67 crore as on March 31, 2026. In FY26, the company
reported profit of INR7.45 crore compared to INR0.30 crore in
FY25.
Key strengths
* Experienced promoters and management: ICL was founded by Sanjeev
Goel, who has over two decades of experience in financial services.
He is a chartered accountant and holds Master's in international
finance from the University of Iowa. ICL has been operating in
small and medium enterprises (SME) equipment financing for the last
two decades.

February 1994, as a private limited company by Sanjeev Goel (Ex.
Finance Manager, Jai Bharat Maruti Ltd, CA and MBA) and Rajeev Goel
(B. Tech from IIT Kanpur and MS from USA). ICL was converted into a
public limited company in October 1994, and subsequently in
September 2009, its name was changed to the present one. ICL is
registered with the Reserve bank of India (RBI) as non-deposit
accepting (ND) non-banking finance company (NBFC) and is listed at
BSE. Post-merger with Unitel Credit Private Limited on February 11,
2011, ICL became a systemically important (SI) NBFC. In April 2014,

from RBI. Since, the loan portfolio came below INR500 crore in
fiscal year ending March 31, 2018; the company became

JSW HYDRO: Moody's Affirms 'Ba1' Rating on USD707MM Sr. Sec. Notes
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has affirmed the Ba1 rating on JSW Hydro Energy
Limited's (JSWH) USD707 million 4.125% senior secured notes due
2031. The outlook remains stable.
The affirmation reflects Moody's expectations that the issuer's
financial profile will remain robust and well within the rating
level.
The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that JSWH will
maintain stable cash flow from its long-term Power Purchase
Agreement (PPAs) and that there will be no construction risk for
the portfolio of assets.
RATINGS RATIONALE
The Ba1 rating on the senior notes reflects (1) JSWH's predictable
cash flow profile from its long-term PPAs; (2) the long and stable
operating track record of its two hydropower projects; (3) very
competitive tariffs for its projects; and (4) moderate financial
leverage supported by the structural features of the notes,
including a mandatory cash sweep mechanism.
JSWH's credit profile reflects the long and efficient track record
of its hydropower projects, which have consistently outperformed
the regulatory targets, allowing the company to earn incentives and
improve its cash flows. The rating also considers the established
and consistent regulatory regime for hydropower in India.
Moody's expects JSWH to have moderate financial leverage, with
average funds from operations (FFO) to debt of 8%-14% over the
remaining life of the notes.
JSWH's credit profile also considers its foreign currency risk
management under the notes. In line with bond covenants, the
company has fully hedged its USD-INR exposure for both principal
and interest, primarily through call spread structures. The company
in past has been able to manage near-term exposures by converting
call spreads into forward contracts. Given recent INR depreciation,
management is considering extending hedge protection at an
additional cost. Residual exposure beyond hedge coverage could
modestly affect credit metrics; nevertheless, the impact is
expected to be manageable considering the rating headroom available
at the present rating level.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING
Moody's could upgrade the rating if JSWH's FFO/debt exceeds 12% on
average for the remaining tenor of the notes.
Moody's could downgrade the rating if JSWH's operating performance
weakens as a result of a negative regulatory decision, or if its
FFO/debt declines below 6% on a sustained basis.
The principal methodology used in this rating was Power Generation
Projects, published in May 2026.
The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.
JSW Hydro Energy Limited (JSWH) is a wholly owned subsidiary of JSW
Energy Ltd and is the largest private hydropower producer in India.

ORAVEL STAYS: S&P Alters Outlook to Positive, Affirms 'B' ICR
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings revised its rating outlook on Oravel Stays Ltd.
to positive from stable. At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'B'
long-term issuer credit rating and 'B' long-term issue rating on
the company's senior secured term loan.
The positive outlook reflects S&P's expectation that Oravel's
credit metrics will improve significantly over the next 12 months
if the company maintains its good earnings momentum and improves
its capital structure through an IPO.
Oravel will likely build on its recent record of positive EBITDA
and cash flow on an improving scale and increased operating
efficiencies over the next 12 months.
A successful IPO could also materially improve the company's
capital structure, which is currently weighed down by debt-like
instruments.
Oravel's capital structure will strengthen in a successful IPO.
This is because the company's compulsory convertible preference
shares (CCPS) and compulsorily convertible cumulative preference
shares (CCCPS) will convert to equity in the event of an IPO. S&P
currently treats these instruments as debt-like in our financial
ratios because of their lack of permanence.
The instruments will convert to equity in a successful IPO. As of
March 31, 2025, they totaled about Indian rupee (INR) 190 billion
to account for almost two-thirds of Oravel's adjusted debt.
Post-IPO and conversion to equity, the company's debt-to-EBITDA
ratio could fall below 3.5x from fiscal 2027, versus S&P's base
case assumption of about 9.5x. Credit ratios could further
strengthen if the company uses its IPO proceeds to pay down debt.
S&P said, "We believe Oravel is making steady progress toward an
IPO. On June 2, 2026, the company received approval from the
Securities and Exchange Board of India for a public offering of
about INR66.5 billion.
"Oravel's earnings could continue to improve over the next 12
months on an improving scale, better operating efficiencies, and a
healthy cash conversion rate. Oravel became profitable in fiscal
2023 (ended March 31, 2023). We estimate the company's EBITDA
increased by a compound annual growth rate of over 45% over fiscal
2024-fiscal 2026. Margins also likely trended above 25% in fiscal
2026 from 17.2% in fiscal 2025.
"We see limited risk of Oravel returning to significant cash burns
over the next 12 months, unlike other unicorns in ride-hailing or
e-commerce where spending needs could arise quickly to defend
market share in a highly competitive environment." The company
operates low-to-mid budget hotels and holiday homes and competes
with platforms such as Airbnb Inc. (A-/Stable/--), Booking Holdings
Inc. (A-/Stable/--), and Expedia Group Inc. (BBB/Stable/--). Given
the fragmented nature of the travel industry, aggressive spending
by players for market share is unlikely.
Oravel's revenue could exceed INR92 billion or about US$1 billion
in fiscal 2026, from INR62.5 billion in fiscal 2025. This follows
the company's full integration of G6 Hospitality LLC, which the
company acquired in fiscal 2025. Revenue could further increase by
about 15% in fiscal 2027 on the group's upscaling to premium
offerings, new asset additions, and healthy same storefront growth
rates. Along with scale efficiencies and cost rationalization, its
EBITDA margins may improve toward 30% by fiscal 2027 from 17.2% in
fiscal 2025.
Adjusted operating cash flow could also turn positive. A higher
earnings base will help Oravel manage interest from its term loan
and funding requirements for working capital and capital
expenditure. Based on S&P's forecast of 15%-20% annual increases in
the company's EBITDA over the next 12-24 months, the company could
have positive adjusted free operating cash flow (FOCF) of INR9
billion-INR12 billion a year in fiscal 2026-2027. This would be a
turnaround from negative INR6.5 billion in fiscal 2025.
While Oravel's cash buffer could remain thin at INR11 billion-INR18
billion until fiscal 2027, S&P believes the positive FOCF signals a
stabilizing business while the company organically accumulates
cash.
S&P said, "The positive rating outlook on Oravel reflects our
expectation that its capital structure and credit metrics could
improve materially over the next 12 months if it maintains good
earnings momentum and positive free cash flow, and successfully
completes its proposed IPO.
"We could revise the outlook to stable if we no longer expect
Oravel to undertake an IPO over the next 12 months."
S&P could raise the rating if:
-- Oravel successfully completes its IPO, thereby removing the
CCPS and CCCPS instruments and permanently improving its capital
structure; and
-- The company maintains positive earnings and cash flow.

Users of this rating (including investors, lenders and the public

rating(s).
Analytical approach: Standalone
Outlook: Not applicable
Detailed description of key rating drivers:
At the time of last rating on May 7, 2025, following were the
rating strengths and weaknesses (CareEdge Ratings did not receive
information after FY22):
Key weaknesses
* Ongoing delays: Based on the feedback from the banker on February
7, 2023, there are ongoing overdue payments on the term loan, and
the cash credit/overdraft (CC/OD) limit is overdrawn. Overdue on
term loans have persisted since November 2022, and there is no
updated information available.
* Small scale of operations: The firm's operations remain small
with total income of INR4.13 crore in FY22, decreased from INR5.38
crore in FY21 considering decline in net brokerage income. Updated
information is not available.
* Inherent volatility in the revenue profile with majority income
coming from brokerage segment: The firm's majority income is
derived from trading in commodities. Income derived from this
segment is highly volatile and speculative in nature. Though income
from the segment increased on a year-on-year basis in FY22, its
ability to continue achieving profits in the segment remains a key
rating consideration. Updated information is not available.
* Increasingly competitive business segment: Broking business in
India is highly competitive and SRC faces fierce competition from
large broking firms. Large broking firms are in a better position
to reduce operating expenses and maintain their margins. Broking
business in India is becoming increasingly competitive with
reducing brokerage fees and volatile volumes.
* Constitution of entity being a partnership firm: SRC's
constitution as a partnership firm has the inherent risk of
possibility of withdrawal of the partners' capital at the time of
personal contingency and firm being dissolved on the
death/retirement/insolvency of partners. Partnership firms have
restricted access to external borrowing as credit worthiness of
partners would be the key factor affecting credit decision of
lenders.
Key strengths
* Experienced partners: Rattan Lal Aggarwal, Deepa Gupta and Ramesh
Bansal are partners for SRC. Partners have adequate acumen on
aspects of business, which are likely to benefit SRC in the long
run.
SRC was established in June 2010 as a partnership firm, and its
commercial operations started in 2011. The firm is being currently
managed by Rattan Lal Aggarwal, Deepa Gupta, and Ramesh Bansal as
its partners. SRC is a trading member of the Multi Commodity
Exchange of India Limited (MCX Member ID - 46005) with clearing
support of Globe Commodities limited and tradingcum-clearing member
of National Commodity and Derivatives exchange Limited (NCDEX
Member ID - 01059) since 2011. The firm has also taken the
membership from Bombay Stock Exchange Limited (BSE- Member id:

obtaining NDS through letters/emails dated March 31, 2026, April
30, 2026 and May 29, 2026 among others, apart from telephonic
communication to seek the same. After non-receipt of NDS for 2
consecutive months, we also sent a letter dated May 26, 2026
reminding the issuer to share the NDS. However, the issuer has
remained non cooperative. Crisil Ratings has also tried to reach
out to the lenders of SSE to confirm timely debt servicing during
these months, but awaits any feedback.
'The investors, lenders and all other market participants should
exercise due caution with reference to the rating assigned/reviewed
with the suffix 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING' as the rating is arrived
at without any management interaction and is based on best

co-operation by a rated entity may be a result of deterioration in
its credit risk profile. These ratings with 'ISSUER NOT

Detailed Rationale
Despite repeated attempts to engage with the management, Crisil
Ratings failed to receive NDSs from SSE, which restricts Crisil
Ratings' ability to take a forward looking view on the entity's
credit quality. Further, non-sharing of NDS by issuers may reflect
operational issues faced by issuers in some cases. On the other
hand, it may be a beginning of a general non-cooperation and may
extend to non-submission of other information.
Crisil Ratings believes that rating action on SSE is consistent
with 'Assessing Information Adequacy Risk'. Based on the last

The rating continues to reflect susceptibility to changes in
government regulations and epidemic-related factors, and
below-average financial risk profile. These weaknesses are
partially offset by the extensive experience of the proprietor in
the dairy industry and moderate business risk profile.
Analytical Approach
Crisil Ratings has evaluated the standalone business and financial
risk profiles of SLMP.
Key Rating Drivers - Weaknesses
* Susceptibility to changes in government regulations and
epidemic-related factors: The price of the raw material (milk) is
sensitive to government policies and environmental conditions.
Manufacturers are vulnerable to the risk of failure in milk
production due to external factors such as cattle diseases or
drought. SLMP made revenue of INR92 crore in fiscal 2025 and the
revenue has been staggering at INR90–100 crore for the past three
years. SLMP's revenue and profit will remain susceptible to intense
competition in the fragmented industry, changes in government
policies and regulations, and to volatility in milk prices due to
environmental conditions.
* Below-average financial risk profile: The financial risk profile
is constrained by low networth and high gearing, at estimated
INR6.15 crore and 7.47 times, respectively, as on March 31, 2026.
Debt protection metrics were subdued, with interest coverage ratio
of 1.46 times and net cash accrual to total debt ratio of 0.03 time
in fiscal 2026.
Key Rating Drivers - Strengths
* Proprietor's extensive experience in the dairy industry: The
proprietor's experience of over two decades has enabled the firm to
establish healthy relationships with suppliers and customers in and
around Krishnagiri region in Tamil Nadu. The firm processes around
60,000 tonne of milk per day. It sells milk under its own Aahaa
brand.
* Moderate Business Risk Profile: The business risk profile is
moderate with year-on-year increase in revenues and improving
operating margins. The revenues grew to around INR 100 estimated in
FY26 and the revenues are expected to gradually grow year-on-year
with the firm's focus in improving traction in value added dairy
segments like paneer and also with the firm's focus to expand in
different regions. The operating margins have been moderately
comfortable at 5-6% for the past 2 years. In FY26, the operating
margins are estimated to be around 6.5%, mainly with the firm's
focus in Paneer sales and other value added segment, which confer
better margins. Thus, with growing scale of operations and average
margins, the business risk profile is expected to remain steady for
the medium term.
Liquidity Stretched
Bank limit utilisation was high at 94.14% on average for the 12
months through March 2026. Annual net cash accrual is expected to
be INR1.4–1.8 crore against yearly term debt obligation of
INR0.9-1.2 crore over the medium term.
Outlook Stable
Crisil Ratings believes SLMP will continue to benefit from its
proprietor's extensive experience and funding support.
Rating sensitivity factors
Upward factors:
* Sustenance of the business risk profile, with stable topline and
operating margin at around 4%
* Improvement in the financial risk profile and liquidity
Downward factors:
* Substantial decline in revenue or reduction in operating margin
to less than 3% leading to low net cash accrual
* Further weakening of the financial risk profile and liquidity
Established in 1997 by Ms Shanthi Subramaniam as a proprietorship
firm, SLMP processes milk, which it sells under the Aahhaa brand.
The firm's processing centre is in Krishnagiri.

obtaining information through letters and emails dated September 5,
2025 and June 4, 2026 among others, apart from telephonic
communication. However, the issuer has remained non cooperative.
The investors, lenders and all other market participants should

non-cooperation by a rated entity may be a result of deterioration
in its credit risk profile. These ratings with 'ISSUER NOT

Detailed Rationale
Despite repeated attempts to engage with the management, Crisil
Ratings failed to receive any information on either the financial
performance or strategic intent of SEIPL, which restricts Crisil
Ratings' ability to take a forward looking view on the entity' s
credit quality. Crisil Ratings believes that rating action on SEIPL
is consistent with 'Assessing Information Adequacy Risk'. Based on
the last available information, Crisil Ratings has downgraded the
rating to 'Crisil D Issuer not cooperating' from ' Crisil B+/Stable
Issuer not cooperating'. As per information available in the public
domain, there remains delinquency in company accounts and clarity
about the same from the management and bankers is continuing to
remain awaited.

Rationale and key rating drivers
The rating assigned to the bank facilities of SORPL takes into
account the delays in interest servicing in the term loan account
of the company.
Rating sensitivities: Factors likely to lead to rating actions
Positive factors
* Delay free track record in debt servicing for more than 90 days.
Analytical approach: Standalone
Outlook: Not Applicable
Detailed description of key rating drivers:
Key weaknesses
* Delays in debt servicing: There are delays in interest servicing
in the term loan account of the company due to stretched liquidity
scenario with latest delay in the month of April 2026.
Liquidity: Poor
The liquidity profile of the company is poor given delays in
interest servicing in the term loan account of the company due to
liquidity issues.
SORPL, a wholly owned subsidiary of UEL, has recently set up a
pulses processing unit with an installed capacity of 48,000 TPA at
Howrah, West Bengal. The company was earlier engaged in the
manufacturing of edible oils and vanaspati ghee at its facility in
Howrah, West Bengal, with installed capacities of 20,000 TPA and
70,000 TPA, respectively. The Company was admitted into the
Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process in March 2022 pursuant to
an order of the Hon'ble NCLT, Kolkata Bench. Subsequently, in April
2024, the Hon'ble NCLT approved the Resolution Plan under the
Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016,
under which the entire pre-existing equity share capital was
extinguished without any compensation to the erstwhile
shareholders. Pursuant to the approved plan, Uma Exports Limited
acquired the Company for an aggregate consideration of INR14.75
crore and was issued fresh equity shares.

EDENOR TECHNOLOGY: High Court Appoints Interim Judicial Managers
----------------------------------------------------------------
BusinessToday reports that the High Court has officially approved
the appointment of interim judicial managers for oleochemical
manufacturer Edenor Technology Sdn Bhd (ETSB) and its subsidiaries,
marking a critical step forward in the group's corporate
rehabilitation strategy.
The joint-venture partner Mega First Corporation Berhad updated
shareholders that the court had allowed the interim appointment
during a hearing held on June 3, 2026. The Edenor Group received
the sealed High Court order on June 5.
The High Court has named corporate advisory firm Messrs Rodgers
Reidy & Co to act as the joint and several Interim Judicial
Managers, BusinessToday discloses.
This interim arrangement will remain active pending the final court
hearing of the Originating Summons for a full Judicial Management
Order, which Edenor originally filed on May 20, 2026, due to
mounting liquidity pressures and sustained operational losses.
Effective immediately, the court-appointed managers assume total
executive control over the Edenor Group of Companies. According to
BusinessToday, under the Companies Act 2016, their extensive legal
mandates include the power to:
* Take absolute custody, management, and administrative control of
all property, assets, and business affairs belonging to the Edenor
Group.
* Negotiate and execute formal restructuring agreements, official
schemes of arrangement, or broader corporate rehabilitation plans
on behalf of the company.
* Dispose of group property in the ordinary course of business or
as a structured component of the upcoming rehabilitation roadmap.
* Hire, engage, or terminate the services of specialized
professional advisers, external consultants, and employees to
protect company operations.
* Apply directly to the High Court for further legal directions or
emergency orders regarding asset administration.
BusinessToday relates that to ensure the interim managers have the
necessary stability to evaluate the business without aggressive
creditor disruptions, MFCB confirmed that the statutory legal
shield remains firmly in place.
"The corporate moratorium under Section 410(c) of the Companies Act
2016 continues to remain in effect," MFCB stated in its
announcement. "During this moratorium period, no legal proceedings,
debt executions, or other hostile legal processes may be commenced
or continued against the Edenor Group or its property, save with
the express leave of the High Court."
Further material updates on the court's final judicial management
decision are expected in the coming weeks.
Edenor Technology operates as a 50:50 joint venture between Mega
First and 9M Technologies Sdn Bhd, anchoring its primary business
in the downstream manufacturing of natural-based fatty acids,
specialty chemical blends, and glycerin products.
ZELAN BHD: Moves to Wind Up Loss-Making Unit
--------------------------------------------
The Malaysian Reserve reports that PN17 contractor Zelan Bhd has
taken another step in its restructuring efforts after its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Zelan Holdings (M) Sdn Bhd (ZHSB),
formally resolved to enter creditors' voluntary liquidation.
In a Bursa Malaysia filing on June 11, Zelan said concurrent
meetings of ZHSB's members and creditors approved the winding-up of
the subsidiary under Section 439(1)(b) of the Companies Act 2016,
citing its inability to continue operations due to heavy
liabilities.
Lim Sin Han and Leoh Hin Han of Sin Han & Co. PLT were appointed
joint and several liquidators, The Malaysian Reserve discloses.
According to The Malaysian Reserve, Zelan noted that ZHSB had
already ceased to be a subsidiary from May 15, 2026, when the
liquidation process commenced, resulting in its deconsolidation
from the group's financial statements.
The subsidiary, previously involved in engineering and turnkey
construction activities, had ceased operations by end-2025, while
Zelan had fully impaired its investment in the unit.
The liquidation forms part of Zelan's broader restructuring and
regularisation plan following its PN17 classification in May 2023.
The Malaysian Reserve says the group's financial distress stemmed
largely from issues related to overseas projects, including
difficulties in recovering a RM241.76 million receivable linked to
a project in Abu Dhabi, which contributed to a disclaimer of
opinion on its FY2022 financial statements.
The Malaysian Reserve relates that Zelan said the liquidation is
expected to have a positive impact on its consolidated net assets
per share and gearing position, as the group no longer has
enforceable guarantees or claims arising from ZHSB's creditors.
The development comes after Bursa Malaysia Securities granted Zelan
a three-month extension until July 31, 2026, to submit its
regularisation plan aimed at exiting PN17 status, the report adds.
About Zelan
Zelan Berhad -- http://zelan.com/-- is an investment holding
company. The Company's business focus is on engineering and
construction projects, and public private partnership projects,
mainly in Malaysia.
Zelan was categorised as a PN17 company in May 2023 after its
external auditor Nexia SSY PLT expressed a disclaimer of opinion on
its audited financial statements for the financial year ended Dec.
31, 2022.

BOGD BANK: Moody's Assigns B2 Rating to USD Senior Unsecured Bond
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has assigned a B2 foreign currency senior unsecured
rating to Bogd Bank JSC (Bogd Bank)'s USD-denominated 3-year
fixed-rate senior unsecured bond.
The rating outlook on the bond is stable, in line with the outlook
on the bank's long-term deposit ratings.
The proceeds of the bond will be used for general banking and
corporate purposes, including the funding of the bank's lending
operations and the diversification of its funding sources.
RATINGS RATIONALE
The assigned senior unsecured bond rating is in line with the
bank's long-term deposit ratings and reflects the structure of the
issuance. The bond is a senior unsecured obligation and ranks pari
passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of
the bank.
Bogd Bank's Baseline Credit Assessment (BCA) is b2, and its
Adjusted BCA, which incorporates no affiliate support, is the same
as its BCA. Bogd Bank is domiciled in Mongolia, which Moody's do
not consider as having an operational resolution regime (ORR).
Moody's apply Moody's basic Loss Given Failure (LGF) analysis,
which results in a preliminary rating assessment for Bogd Bank's
deposit in line with its Adjusted BCA before government support
considerations. Given the bank's limited local deposit franchise,
Moody's incorporates a low probability of support from the
Government of Mongolia (B1 stable) for the bank's deposits, which
result in no notches of uplift.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING
The bond's rating is in line with Bogd Bank's long-term deposit
ratings. Therefore, an upgrade or downgrade of Bogd Bank's
long-term deposit ratings would cause a similar rating action on
the bond's rating.
Moody's could upgrade Bogd Bank's ratings if the bank's BCA is
upgraded, while Mongolia's sovereign rating remains unchanged.
The bank's BCA could be upgraded if it diversifies its funding
channels toward a more balanced mix while maintaining an impaired
loan ratio of 2.5% on a sustained basis and keeping capital robust
at a level that is well above the banking system average.
Moody's could downgrade Bogd Bank's ratings if the bank's BCA is
downgraded.
The bank's BCA could be downgraded if its capitalization weakens
significantly, with its tangible common equity (TCE)/risk-weighted
assets (RWA) falling below 15%; liquidity deteriorates
significantly, with liquid banking assets/tangible banking assets
declining below 30%; reliance on market funding rises
significantly, particularly borrowings from banks and financial
institutions; and asset quality deteriorates, with its annual new
nonperforming loan (NPL) formation ratio rising above 5%, on a
sustained basis.
PRINCIPAL METHODOLOGY
The principal methodology used in this rating was Banks published
in November 2025.
Bogd Bank's assigned BCA score of b2 is set two notches below the
initial Financial Profile score of ba3 to reflect the expected
trend in its capital as loan disbursements may accelerate in the
next 12 months, as well as the expected trend in its profitability
and its earnings volatility.
Established in 2014, Bogd Bank JSC is headquartered in Ulaanbaatar,
Mongolia. As of year-end 2025, Bogd Bank's largest shareholder Bogd
Global Partners LLC, owned a 72.67% stake in the bank. In February
2025, the bank's shareholders voted to convert it into a closed
joint-stock company. As of year-end 2025, the bank reported total
assets and shareholders' equity of MNT1,371.1 billion and MNT206.1
billion, respectively.
