DBRS has today published three updated corporate methodologies as follows:

(1) Rating Companies in the Industrial Products Industry;
(2) Rating Companies in the Engineering and Construction Industry; and
(3) Rating Companies in the Forest Products Industry.

These updates supersede previous versions published in June 2015. While certain details have been clarified in these methodologies, changes overall are not material, and DBRS has determined that no ratings have changed as a result of these updates.

DBRS rating definitions and the terms of use of such ratings are available at www.dbrs.com.

DBRS’s methodologies and criteria are available at www.dbrs.com or by contacting us at info@dbrs.com.
