KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to AHPT 2025-ATRM

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA announces the assignment of preliminary ratings to eight classes of AHPT 2025-ATRM, a CMBS single-borrower securitization. The collateral for the transaction is a $653.0 million floating rate, interest-only mortgage loan. The loan is expected to have an initial two-year term with three, one-year extension options and require monthly interest-only payments. The loan will be secured by the borrowers' fee simple and leasehold interests in 14 hotels located in 11 states. In addition, the loan may be secured by the leasehold interest in one additional hotel, which is not expected to be part of the loan collateral as of the origination date, but which may become part of the collateral upon receipt by the related borrower of an executed estoppel certificate from the related ground lessor within nine months of loan closing and satisfaction of certain other conditions. For the TTM 5/2025 period, the portfolio's occupancy was 71.2% with an average daily rate (ADR) of $168.35, resulting in revenue per available room (RevPAR) of $119.82. As of TTM 5/2025, the portfolio achieved weighted average occupancy, ADR and RevPAR penetration rates of 109.4%, 109.5% and 120.5%, respectively. KBRA's analysis of the transaction included a detailed evaluation of the property's cash flows using our North American CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology, and the application of our North American CMBS Single Borrower & Large Loan Rating Methodology. In addition, KBRA also relied on its Global Structured Finance Counterparty Methodology for assessing counterparty risk in this transaction, and its ESG Global Rating Methodology, to the extent deemed applicable. The results of our analysis yielded a KBRA net cash flow (KNCF) for the portfolio of approximately $63.2 million, which is 10.0% below the issuer's NCF, and a KBRA value of approximately $582.9 million, which is 34.7% below the aggregate of the appraiser's individual as-is values for each property. The resulting in-trust KBRA Loan to Value (KLTV) is 112.0%. In our analysis of the transaction, we also reviewed and considered third party engineering, environmental, and appraisal reports, the results of our site inspection of the property, and legal documentation review.

Pagaya Closes Upsized $500 Million 8.875% Senior Unsecured Notes Offering, Signaling Strong Investor Confidence

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pagaya Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: PGY) ('Pagaya' or the 'Company'), a global technology company delivering AI-driven product solutions for the financial ecosystem, today announced the successful closing of its upsized offering of $500 million of 8.875% senior unsecured notes due 2030 (the 'notes'). Net proceeds from the offering will be used primarily to refinance the existing higher-cost term loan and other secured borrowings. The transaction marks a significant milestone in Pagaya's evolution as a public company, establishing it as one of the first fintechs to access the high-yield unsecured debt markets. Backed by strong demand from many of the world's leading institutional investors, the deal was upsized and approximately 5 times oversubscribed. 'Executing a $500 million high-yield offering with significant investor demand is a milestone that reflects the strength of our financial profile and the institutional support of our platform,' said Gal Krubiner, Co-Founder and CEO of Pagaya. 'This achievement strengthens our ability to scale, drive sustained profitability, and deliver long-term shareholder value.' By refinancing legacy debt and eliminating associated debt amortization, Pagaya further improves its GAAP Net Income profitability and expects to generate approximately $40 million of annualized cash flow savings, based on first quarter 2025 performance, resulting from the following: ~$30 million in reduced debt amortization (a portion of the annualized first quarter 2025 payments made to secured borrowings and long-term debt) and approximately $12 million in annual interest expense reduction. The transaction is expected to lower Pagaya's cost of debt by nearly 200 basis points, while maintaining generally flat net leverage. This offering builds on Pagaya's capital strategy, establishing repeatable access to public debt markets, enhancing capital flexibility, and broadening its long-term investor base. The Company is now rated by all three major credit agencies: S&P, Moody's, and Fitch. 'This transaction is the result of our disciplined financial strategy designed to strengthen our financial foundation, accelerate profitability, and unlock shareholder value,' said Evangelos Perros, CFO of Pagaya. 'By replacing higher cost secured debt with long term unsecured capital, we are improving our operating leverage, cash generation, and strategic positioning in the marketplace.' About Pagaya Technologies Pagaya (NASDAQ: PGY) is a global technology company making life-changing financial products and services available to more people nationwide, as it reshapes the financial services ecosystem. By using machine learning, a vast data network and an AI-driven approach, Pagaya provides comprehensive consumer credit and residential real estate products for its partners, their customers, and investors.
