DBRS Finalizes Provisional Ratings on BXG Receivables Note Trust 2017-A

DBRS, Inc. (DBRS) has today finalized its provisional ratings on the following classes of Timeshare Loan-Backed Notes issued by BXG Receivables Note Trust 2017-A:

-- $88,775,000 Series 2017-A, Class A rated A (sf)
-- $31,415,000 Series 2017-A, Class B rated BBB (sf)

The ratings are based on DBRS’s review of the following analytical considerations:

(1) Transaction capital structure, proposed ratings and form and sufficiency of available credit enhancement.
-- Credit enhancement is in the form of subordination, overcollateralization, amounts held in the reserve account and excess spread. Credit enhancement levels are sufficient to support the DBRS-projected expected loss assumption under various stress scenarios.

(2) The ability of the Transaction to withstand stressed cash flow assumptions and repay investors according to the terms under which they have invested. For this transaction, the ratings address the payment of timely interest on a monthly basis and principal by the stated maturity date.

(3) Bluegreen Corporation’s (Bluegreen) long operating history and its capabilities with regard to developing and managing timeshare resorts, as well as the origination, underwriting and servicing of Timeshare Loans.
-- DBRS has performed an operational risk review of Bluegreen and considers the entity to be an acceptable originator and servicer of Timeshare Loans.
-- The Bluegreen senior management team averages approximately 14 years of company tenure.

(4) The credit quality of the Transaction collateral and the consistent performance of Bluegreen’s Timeshare Loan portfolio.
-- Sufficient availability of historical performance data and a history of consistent performance on the Bluegreen Timeshare Loan portfolio.
-- The statistical collateral pool is seasoned approximately 16 months and contains Bluegreen originations from Q1 2008 through Q2 2017. The average remaining life of the collateral pool is approximately 103 months. The weighted-average FICO score of the pool is 713 (excludes obligors with no FICO, which is equal to approximately 1.7% of the statistical cut-off pool).

(5) The legal structure and presence of legal opinions that address the true sale of the assets to the Issuer, the non-consolidation of each of the depositor and the Issuer with Bluegreen, that the Issuer has a valid first-priority security interest in the assets and the consistency with the DBRS “Legal Criteria for U.S. Structured Finance” methodology.
