Amex GBT Receives Credit Rating Upgrade; S&P Global Ratings Upgrades the Company to BB-
American Express Global Business Travel (NYSE: GBTG) has received a credit rating upgrade from S&P Global Ratings, raising its issuer credit rating to 'BB-' from 'B+' with a stable outlook.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
The upgrade reflects S&P’s view that “the company’s operating performance will remain strong in 2025.”
Karen Williams, CFO of Amex GBT, stated: “We are pleased with the credit rating upgrade and view it as recognition of our strong results including revenue growth, significant margin expansion, free cash flow acceleration and a balanced approach to capital allocation.”
