Identifying Non-financial European Companies with Higher Exposure to the Strained Credit Environment Webcast Replay

October 9, 2007 - 11:30 AM EDT

RiskMetrics Group is pleased to invite you to attend the conference call, information below, on Identifying European (non-financial) companies with potentially higher exposure to the current adverse credit environment. Download an excerpt from our recently published report.

We have approached our analysis in three different ways:

1. Companies with significant short term debt exposure and weak cash flow. We identified 58 such companies of which 6 had short term debt higher than 40% of their total capital.
2. Companies with significant overall debt exposure and poor liquidity profile. We identified 28 such companies of which 17 had negative free cash flow in either the last fiscal year or last 12 month period or both
3. Companies using debt capital to finance their acquisition driven growth. We identified 18 such highly acquisitive companies; in 3 of these companies, the ratio of debt/capital increased by more than 3000 bps in the last three years.
