These positive rating factors are derived from OUC’s favorable pre-tax operating returns over the past five years, conservative balance sheet, and the synergies gained from being affiliated with Van Enterprises, Inc. OUC specializes in providing vehicle service contracts to affiliated automobile dealerships that are owned by its ultimate parent, Van Enterprises, Inc. Through this affiliation, OUC benefits from the marketing and distribution platforms provided by these affiliated dealerships.
