KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to BBCMS 2021-C10

Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) is pleased to announce the assignment of preliminary ratings to 19 classes of BBCMS 2021-C10, a $846.8 million CMBS conduit transaction with 64 loans secured by 127 properties.

The collateral properties are located across 33 MSAs, the largest three of which are Philadelphia (14.1%), New York (11.4%), and Las Vegas (11.2%). The pool has exposure to all of the major property types, with five types representing more than 10.0% of the pool balance: office (29.0%), multifamily (20.8%), industrial (11.5%), retail (11.3%), and self-storage (11.2%). The loans have principal balances ranging from $1.5 million to $50.0 million for the largest loan in the pool, The Atlantic (5.9%), a 268-unit, Class-A, high-rise multifamily building located in Philadelphia, within the city’s CBD. The five largest loans, which also include Morris Corporate Center (5.8%), MGM Grand & Mandalay Bay (5.8%), Philadelphia Logistics Center (5.2%), and Montecito Tower (3.9%), represent 26.7% of the initial pool balance, while the top 10 loans represent 42.6%.

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 U.S. CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology. On an aggregate basis, KNCF was 9.3% 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, 44.1% less than third party appraisal values. The pool has an in-trust KLTV of 101.8% and an all-in KLTV of 107.1%. 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.
