DBRS Assigns Ratings to Banc of America Re-REMIC Trust 2010-UBER5
CMBSDBRS has today assigned ratings to the following classes of Banc of America Re-REMIC Trust 2010-UBER5 Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates. The trends are Stable.
Class A-4A at AAA (sf)
Class A-4B at BBB (sf)
The transaction is collateralized by the beneficial interests in six commercial mortgage backed pass-through certificates from six underlying transactions that were securitized in 2007 and 2008. The transaction is a senior/subordinate pass-through, providing a sequential-pay structure intended to contain any potential losses within Class A-4B. The underlying certificates have been pooled together within the Banc of America Re-REMIC Trust 2010-UBER5 structure. Separately, the credit enhancement of the underlying certificates ranges from approximately 30.4% to 29.9%. However, if significant losses were to occur in one of the underlying transactions and its corresponding certificate, the losses would not be offset by the credit enhancement provided by the other underlying certificates within this trust. As such, DBRS rated Class A-4B to a first dollar loss scenario; in order to determine the rating floor for Class A-4B. DBRS analyzed each of the six underlying transactions separately. Although DBRS does not publicly rate any of the underlying transactions, a detailed level of analysis on each transaction was performed to derive an indicative rating for each contributed certificate.
DBRS modeled each transaction separately and conducted a comprehensive review of the larger assets and the servicer’s watchlist to identify and properly model pivotal assets that carry a higher likelihood of default. DBRS reviewed the most recent servicer site inspections, rent rolls, operating statements, and any market data to further determine a loan’s risk profile. Additionally, all specially serviced assets were reviewed and a liquidation scenario was completed in order to determine a knowledgeable estimate of losses that were then artificially applied to each respective trust.
The remaining performing loans were modeled, and each contributed certificate was sized against its liquidation scenario to determine appropriate credit enhancement for the indicative ratings. DBRS sized each deal using current whole-loan outstanding balances and updated net operating income (NOI). DBRS arrived at a stabilized net cash flow (NCF) for each loan and if the YE2009 financials were not available, applied an additional negative adjustment to the preceding year NCF to capture any additional cash flow volatility anticipated because of market deterioration. This stressed cash flow was then used to determine the DBRS probability of default based on the DSCR and loss given default based on the debt yield for each loan. The DBRS DSCR and debt yields, at each rating category, are calculated using mean reverting credit metrics, thereby modeling the loans with substantial discounts to the top of the market financing terms and appraised values.
The review of the underlying collateral revealed the ratings floor to be ‘BBB (sf)’.
The ratings are dependent on the performance of the underlying deals. DBRS will perform monthly analytics, surveying the underlying deals for losses, delinquencies, prepayments, cash flow migration, and corresponding DSCR volatility.
