DBRS Confirms and Upgrades Ratings of U.S. ABS Transactions

Auto, Other, Equipment
June 27, 2014

DBRS has conducted a review of 15 publicly rated U.S. structured finance asset-backed securities transactions that are currently outstanding. Of the 38 classes reviewed, DBRS has today confirmed 33 classes, has upgraded two classes, and has discontinued three classes due to full repayment of the notes.

The collateral supporting the transactions is performing within DBRS expectations. For the ratings that were confirmed, the transactions have exhibited stable performance trends and have credit enhancement for each class sufficient enough to cover DBRS-expected losses. For the ratings that were upgraded, the transactions have exhibited positive performance trends and experienced increases in credit support sufficient to withstand stresses at their new rating level.

The following public transactions were reviewed:
-- Alliance Laundry Equipment Receivables Trust 2013-A
-- CNH Wholesale Master Note Trust Series 2013-2
-- First Investors Auto Owner Trust 2013-2
-- First Investors Auto Owner Trust 2013-3
-- First Investors Receivables Funding, LLC
-- Hana Financial SPV I, LLC
-- HELIOS Finance Limited Partnership 2007-S1
-- HFG Healthco-4 LLC, Healthcare Receivables-Backed Notes, Series 2011-1
