KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to Servpro Master Issuer LLC and Takes Other Rating Actions

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA assigns preliminary ratings to two classes of notes from Servpro Master Issuer LLC (the Issuer), Series 2024-1 (Servpro 2024-1), a whole business securitization (WBS). In conjunction with the issuance of Servpro 2024-1, the Servpro 2019-1 Class A-1 Notes are expected to be refinanced, at which time KBRA will withdraw the rating. At that time, KBRA also anticipates affirming the ratings on the Issuer’s outstanding Series 2019-1 Class A-2 Notes, Series 2021-1 Class A-2 Notes, and Series 2022-1 Class A-2 Notes (the Existing Notes and, together with the Series 2024-1 Notes, the Notes). The ratings are consistent with the results of our cash flow analysis following the addition of the Series 2024-1 Notes, which will share in the same collateral pool as the other series.
