DBRS Morningstar Confirms Ratings on Pawnee Equipment Receivables (Series 2019-1) LLC
EquipmentDBRS, Inc. (DBRS Morningstar) confirmed its ratings on the following classes of notes issued by Pawnee Equipment Receivables (Series 2019-1) LLC:
-- Class A-2 Notes, confirmed at AAA (sf)
-- Class B Notes, confirmed at AA (sf)
-- Class C Notes, confirmed at A (sf)
-- Class D Notes, confirmed at BBB (sf)
-- Class E Notes, confirmed at BB (sf)
The confirmations are based on the following analytical considerations:
-- The transaction assumptions consider DBRS Morningstar’s set of macroeconomic scenarios for select economies related to the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), available in its commentary “Global Macroeconomic Scenarios: September Update,” published on September 10, 2020. DBRS Morningstar initially published macroeconomic scenarios on April 16, 2020, which have been regularly updated. The scenarios were last updated on September 10, 2020, and are reflected in DBRS Morningstar’s rating analysis.
-- The assumptions consider the moderate macroeconomic scenario outlined in the commentary, with the moderate scenario serving as the primary anchor for current ratings. The moderate scenario remains predicated on a more rapid return of confidence and a steady recovery heading into 2021. Observed performance during the 2008–09 financial crisis and the possible impact from a stimulus package were also incorporated into the analysis.
-- The collateral performance to date and DBRS Morningstar's assessment of future performance, including upward revisions to the expected cumulative net loss assumptions that take into account the increased stress commensurate with the moderate macroeconomic scenario.
-- The currently available hard credit enhancement in the form of overcollateralization, subordination (as applicable), and amounts of deposit in the cash reserve account, as well as the change in the level of protection afforded by each form of credit enhancement since the closing of each transaction.
-- The relative benefit from obligor and geographic diversification of collateral pools.
-- The transaction parties’ capabilities with regard to origination, underwriting, and servicing.
