Earnings Review

Still see bonds as cheap 29 June 2026

Despite the 5.125s having appreciated 6 points since early May, we continue to believe High Yield Credit

that they represent attractive relative value and maintain our Overweight rating. The United States

yield-to-4/15/28 (one year in advance of maturity) is 7.8%, which is 50 bps wide of the Restaurants

Single B Index. In addition, net leverage remained low at 2.2x at the end of 1Q26 and we

expect it ends the year at 2.1x. We expect solid results and net leverage being WilliamResearchM.AnalystReuter

maintained at low levels will allow spreads to tighten. BofAS
