NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) is pleased to announce the assignment of preliminary ratings to nine classes of HPLY Trust 2019-HIT, an $826.5 million CMBS single-borrower securitization.
The collateral for the securitization consists of an $870.0 million non-recourse, first lien, floating-rate mortgage loan that is secured by the borrowers’ interests in 92 hotels including fee simple interests in 84 lodging properties (94.5% of portfolio balance) totaling 9,873 keys, and its leasehold interests in eight hotels (5.5%) totaling 926 keys. For the TTM 2/2019 period, the portfolio’s occupancy was 74.5% with an average daily rate (ADR) of $124.00, resulting in revenue per available room (RevPAR) of $92.39.
The underlying collateral consists of 32 select-service hotels (3,934 keys, 34.3% of loan balance), 38 limited-service properties (4,444 keys, 33.3%), 21 extended-stay properties (2,175 keys, 29.0%), and one full-service hotel (246 keys, 3.5%) located in 64 different MSAs in 30 states. All portfolio properties are operated under national flags including Hampton Inn (29 properties, 25.4%), Courtyard by Marriott (16 properties, 18.4%), Residence Inn (15 properties, 19.4%), Hyatt Place (15 properties, 15.0%), Homewood Suites (six properties, 9.6%), SpringHill Suites (six hotels, 5.6%), Fairfield Inn (two properties, 1.8%), Embassy Suites (one property, 3.5%), Hilton Garden Inn (one property, 0.9%), and Holiday Inn Express (one property, 0.5%).
KBRA’s analysis of the transaction included a detailed evaluation of the properties’ cash flows using our U.S. CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology and the application of our U.S. CMBS Single Borrower & Large Loan Rating Methodology. The results of our analysis yielded a KBRA net cash flow (KNCF) for the portfolio of roundly $96.3 million. To value the portfolio, KBRA applied a blended capitalization rate of 11.26% to arrive at a KBRA value of $855.3 million. The resulting KBRA Loan-to-Value (KLTV) is 101.7%. In our analysis of the transaction, we considered the third-party engineering, environmental, seismic, and appraisal reports; management and franchise agreements; the results of our site inspections; and legal documentation.
