The outlook revision is based on Moody’s Investors Service’s expectation that CHS will maintain its stable operating performance and investment position.

The “Baa1” rating affirmation is representative of several factors, including CHS’ leading regional market position, low leverage and adequate liquidity. CHS also faces several challenges, including competition in its primary service area.
