The rating assignment is based on a number of factors, including LVHN’s leading market position and history of strong financial performance.

LVHN also faces numerous challenges, including a number of unrestricted investments following its planned capital investment and rapid growth.

The outlook is negative, reflecting Moody’s Investors Service’s expectation that LVHN’s liquidity will remain below expectations.
