Company Now Rated Investment Grade by All Three Major Rating Agencies

HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc. (“HASI,” “We,” “Our,” or the “Company”) (NYSE: HASI), a leading investor in sustainable infrastructure assets, today announced it has received an investment grade credit rating of BBB- from S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”).

On June 11, 2025, S&P upgraded HASI’s corporate and issuer credit ratings to BBB- from BB+ with a stable outlook. The Company has maintained an investment grade credit rating of BBB- from Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”) since May 2024 and an investment grade credit rating of Baa3 from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody's”) since June 2022.

“Securing a third investment grade rating is a significant milestone that reflects our financial strength and the resilience of our business model,” said HASI Chief Financial Officer Chuck Melko. “This achievement underscores our proven strategy and disciplined track record, and enhances our capacity to scale high-impact investments in energy transition projects while continuing to deliver long-term value to our stakeholders.”

In its report, S&P stated that the upgrade reflects the Company’s scale and strength, fueled by HASI’s steady business growth and asset quality. Despite macroeconomic headwinds in the sustainable infrastructure and energy sector such as tariffs and potential revisions to the Inflation Reduction Act, S&P expects HASI will continue to source investment opportunities at profitable yields, further noting that HASI primarily invests in stabilized projects with minimal construction risk, and that most of the Company’s $5.5 billion 12-month pipeline are comprised of projects that are already under construction. Additionally, the report notes that energy demand has outpaced supply in recent years and highlights that HASI’s 10-year track record suggests it is well-positioned to source investment opportunities in new sustainable infrastructure asset classes to address this demand.
