DBRS Morningstar Downgrades and Discontinues Credit Rating on One Class of JPMBB Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust 2014-C22

DBRS Limited (DBRS Morningstar) downgraded the credit rating on one class of Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2014-C22 issued by JPMBB Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust 2014-C22 as follows:

-- Class G to D (sf) from C (sf)

In addition, the credit rating on Class G was simultaneously discontinued and withdrawn.

The credit rating downgrade and discontinuation of Class G is a result of a loss to the trust that was reflected in the September 2023 remittance. Two loans, Las Catalinas Mall (Prospectus ID#3; formerly 8.5% of the pool) and Junction Plaza (Prospectus ID#73; formerly 0.3% of the pool) were liquidated from the trust with losses of $32.1 million and $1.8 million, respectively. Those losses took out the remaining non-rated class balance and the majority of the Class G balance, which currently stands at $2.2 million.
