Installed Building Products, Inc. (the “Company” or “IBP”) (NYSE: IBP), an industry-leading installer of insulation and complementary building products, announced today that Fitch Ratings ("Fitch") has assigned IBP a first-time Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of ‘BB+’. Fitch has also assigned a ‘BBB-’ rating with a Recovery Rating of ‘RR1’ to IBP’s ABL credit facility, a ‘BBB-‘/’RR2’ rating to its senior secured term loan, and a ‘BB+’/’RR4’ rating to the Company’s senior unsecured notes. The Rating Outlook is Stable.

Fitch’s rating announcement noted that the ‘BB+’ IDR reflects IBP’s conservative leverage profile, strong cash flow generation, healthy liquidity position, leading market position within insulation installation, and broad geographic presence in the U.S. The IDR also incorporates IBP’s exposure to the cyclical new construction market, as well as its acquisitive strategy.
