Fitch affirms Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth Health System’s ‘AA-‘ rating

The rating affirmation was supported by a number of factors, including SCLHS’ sustained, consistent operating performance since 2011. The health system has produced a 2 percent operating margin and 12 percent operating EBITDA margin through the six month interim period ended June 30.

 

SCLHS’ stead balance sheet, growing unrestricted liquidity, diverse revenue base and near completion of the health system’s Saint Joseph facility were also supporting factors of the rating.
