KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to BANK 2018-BNK11

NEW YORK--()--Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) is pleased to announce the assignment of preliminary ratings to 14 classes of BANK 2018-BNK11 (see ratings list below), a $688.2 million CMBS conduit transaction collateralized by 42 commercial mortgage loans secured by 76 properties.

The collateral properties are located in 23 states, with three state exposures each representing more than 10.0% of the pool balance: California (34.3%), Michigan (11.6%), and Virginia (10.6%). The pool has exposure to all of the major property types, with five each representing 10.0% or more of the pool balance: retail (27.4%), office (24.3%), multifamily (13.4%), self-storage (13.3%) and industrial (11.1%). The loans have principal balances ranging from $1.2 million to $66.6 million for the largest loan in the pool, Twelve Oaks Mall (9.7%), securing 716,771 sf of the super-regional mall located in Novi, Michigan, approximately 30 miles northwest of Detroit. The five largest loans, which also include Extra Space – TIAA Self Storage Portfolio (9.6%), Apple Campus 3 (9.2%), One Dulles Tower (9.2%), and Airport Business Center (7.7%), represent 45.3% of the initial pool balance, while the top 10 loans represent 69.2%.

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 CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology. On an aggregate basis, KNCF was 7.7% 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, 40.1% less than third party appraisal values. The pool has an in-trust KLTV of 92.2% and an all-in KLTV of 102.9%. 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.

For complete details on the analysis, please see our pre-sale report, BANK 2018-BNK11 published today at www.kbra.com. The report includes our BANK 2018-BNK11 KBRA Conduit KCAT, an easy to use, Excel-based workbook that provides the following information:

  • KBRA Deal Tape – Contains KBRA loan level details for every loan in the pool, and the ability for users to input adjustments to KNCF and KBRA Cap Rates and see the related impact on key deal metrics.
  • KBRA Credit Metrics Comparison Tool – Enables the user to compare the subject transaction to a user-defined transaction comp set. The feature provides many of the fields that are included in our CMBS Monthly Trend Watch publication.
  • Excel-based property cash flow statements for the top 20 loans.
