S&P Global Ratings Upgrades Securitizations Sponsored by Carvana Due to Continued Strength in Loan Performance

Reductions of Loss Assumptions on Certain Outstanding Securitization Bonds Reflect Outperformance vs. Initial S&P Expectations

PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Carvana Co. (NYSE: CVNA), the leading e-commerce platform for buying and selling used cars, receives notable S&P Global Ratings upgrades and revisions of securitization loss assumptions due to capital structure de-leveraging and outperformance of S&P initial assumptions:

• S&P Global Ratings raised its ratings on 21 classes from seven Carvana-sponsored securitizations backed by prime auto loans and it affirmed its ratings on 19 classes from the same transactions. S&P Global Ratings also lowered its loss assumptions on the same seven transactions.
• S&P Global Ratings raised its ratings on 15 classes from five Carvana-sponsored securitizations backed by non-prime auto loans and it affirmed its ratings on nine classes from the same transactions. S&P Global Ratings also lowered or affirmed its loss assumptions on the same five transactions.

“We believe the ratings actions taken by S&P demonstrate our ability to originate high quality assets in our lending business as a result of disciplined underwriting practices that are complemented by our third party servicer’s experience and expertise,” said Meg Kehan, Carvana’s Senior Director of Capital Markets.

S&P’s ratings actions demonstrate that the classes have adequate credit enhancement at the upgraded or affirmed rating levels. Reports can be viewed with S&P Global RatingsDirect account access.

Carvana has issued 21 auto loan securitizations since 2019 and more recently three securitizations year-to-date in 2023, consisting of two prime and one non-prime securitizations totaling ~$1.3B of loan principal.
