KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to BANK 2023-BNK46
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#KBRA–KBRA is pleased to announce the assignment of preliminary ratings to 38 classes of BANK 2023-BNK46, a $720.6 million CMBS conduit transaction collateralized by 32 commercial mortgage loans secured by 32 properties.
The collateral properties are located throughout 16 MSAs, of which the three largest are Washington NoVA – MD (16.3%), San Diego (13.1%), and Boston (10.0%). The pool has exposure to all major property types, with four types representing more than 10.0% of the pool balance: retail (35.8%), office (21.2%), lodging (17.0%), and mixed-use (13.0%). The loans have principal balances ranging from $1.0 million to $72.0 million for the largest loan in the pool, CX – 250 Water Street (10.0%), which is secured by a 479,004 sf Class-A office and lab building located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, approximately one mile northwest of Boston CBD. The five largest loans, which also include Fashion Valley Mall (9.7%), Soho Beach House Miami (8.3%), Largo Town Center (6.3%), and Seagate Campus (6.0%), represent 40.3% of the initial pool balance, while the top 10 loans represent 65.6%.
KBRA’s analysis of the transaction incorporated our multi-borrower rating process that begins with our analysts’ evaluation of the underlying collateral properties’ financial and operating performance, which determine KBRA’s estimate of sustainable net cash flow (KNCF) and KBRA value using our U.S. CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology. On an aggregate basis, KNCF was 12.4% less than the issuer cash flow. KBRA capitalization rates were applied to each asset’s KNCF to derive values that were, on an aggregate basis, 38.5% less than third party appraisal values. The pool has an in-trust KLTV of 81.5% and an all-in KLTV of 81.6%. The model deploys rent and occupancy stresses, probability of default regressions, and loss given default calculations to determine losses for each collateral loan that are then used to assign our credit ratings.
