Free Credit Rating Report McCaw built the first wireless network in the US, which he later sold to AT&T (NYSE: T) in the mid-1990s for US$11.5 billion.

Credit Rating Scale With McCaw backing the no. 4 Canadian wireless company's recovery, bankers were lined up to commit C$450 in financing for its wholly owned subsidiary, Microcell Solutions Inc. The financing was announced February 20th. Microcell said the proceeds would go to pay down debt and fund capital expenditures.

Bad Credit Rating Aiding that financing were narrower losses thanks to more subscribers and a drop in interest costs after restructuring.

Credit Rating Agency Part of the growth came from its new City Fido service launched in Vancouver, which gives customers unlimited local calls for a fixed price of C$40 per month.The Company is banking heavily on its Fido services and put in place a loyalty program to fend off competitors. With McCaw involved, Microcell's chances of gain through the underwriting announced Friday should prove beneficial.

Credit Rating Canada The stock has gained 70 percent since it began trading in May, a jump similar to its only other publicly traded rival, Rogers Wireless Communications Inc. (TSX: RCMb). Its other competitors are BCE Inc.'s (TSX: BCE) Bell Mobility and Telus Corp.'s (TSX: T) Telus Mobility.Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'B-' senior secured debt ratings to the first priority debt of Microcell Telecommunications Inc.'s (TSX: MTb) proposed bank facility February 20th. Standard & Poor's also assigned its 'B-' senior secured debt rating to the C$50 million revolver and tranche A (C$200 million equivalent) portions of Microcell Solutions Inc.'s credit facility and its 'CCC-' senior secured debt ratings to the tranche B (C$200 million equivalent) portion of the facility.

Bad Credit Mortgage Rating At the same time, the 'CCC+' long-term corporate credit ratings on Microcell Solutions and its parent Microcell Telecommunications (collectively Microcell) were affirmed. Should the transaction close as planned, the new ratings will be assigned and existing ratings on the current bank facility will be withdrawn. The outlook is developing, said Standard & Poor's.

Good Credit Rating The ratings on national wireless operator Microcell reflect the company's high degree of business risk within the Canadian wireless industry as compared with the three other national operators (Bell Mobility, Rogers Wireless Inc., and Telus Mobility). The ratings also reflect a weak financial risk profile, given the company's limited liquidity and ability to generate cash from operations. "Although Microcell's leverage is moderate, even with the incremental debt, the company's EBITDA base is small, and available liquidity is limited, which will restrict future growth," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Joe Morin. "With the new bank facility, Microcell will add approximately C$65 million in debt to its balance sheet, with proceeds to be used for capital expenditures and working capital," Mr. Morin added.

Credit Score Rating Chart Just three days after S&P announced its ratings change Microcell filed a law suit against Telus Corp. , Rogers Wireless Communications and Bell Canada over trademark infringement of its Fido brand.

Credit Mortgage Rating Poor Microcell said Telus, Rogers and Bell are exclusively targeting its customers through unauthorized use of the Fido trademarks and brand.

Good Credit Rating Score The company said the defendants used dogs and other "Fido-related images" in their advertisements.With its bank financing secured and S&P's ratings in place Microcell is on course to file a final prospectus in March and to close the offering in April.Following the completion of the offering, Microcell will have 27.1 million shares outstanding, an increase of 4.5 million shares.

Poor Credit Rating Loan Microcell said that under the rights offering, shareholders will receive one right for each share held and every five rights will allow the purchase of one class B non-voting share at C$22.
