A.M. Best Affirms Ratings of ACMAT Corporation and ACSTAR Insurance Company

Business Wire
A.M. Best Co. has affirmed the issuer credit rating (ICR)
of “bbb+” of ACMAT Corporation (ACMAT) (New Britain, CT)
(Pink Sheets: ACMTA). A.M. Best also has affirmed the financial
strength rating of A (Excellent) and ICR of “a+” of ACMAT’s wholly
owned subsidiary, ACSTAR Insurance Company (ACSTAR)
(Chicago, IL). The outlook for all ratings is stable.
The rating affirmations reflect ACSTAR’s exceptionally strong
risk-adjusted capitalization, historically strong operating
performance, geographic diversification, effective risk management
and management’s experience in managing through market cycles.
These positive rating factors are offset by ACSTAR’s limited
product diversification, yearly stockholder dividends to service
the modest debt at ACMAT and the recent deterioration in premium
levels given ACSTAR’s correlation to construction market
activity.
The outlook reflects A.M. Best’s expectation for the
continuation of a prudent business strategy and strong
risk-adjusted capitalization. ACSTAR is a provider of surety bonds,
primarily for general building and specialty trades.
