KBRA assigns ratings to five classes of notes issued by GreenSky Home Improvement Issuer Trust 2025-3 ("GSKY 2025-3"), an asset-backed securitization collateralized by a pool of consumer loans used for home improvements.

GSKY 2025-3 represents the ninth rated 144A securitization of home improvement loans originated through the lending program administered by GreenSky, LLC (“GreenSky” or the “Company”) on behalf of federally-insured, federal or state chartered lenders in connection with the lenders’ origination of consumer loans through a network of merchants (the “GreenSky Program”) and the fifth securitization issued under the GreenSky Home Improvement Issuer Trust (GSKY) shelf.

GSKY 2025-3 issued five classes (seven tranches) of notes totaling $718.134 million, collateralized by 95% of economic participation interests (the "Participations") in a pool of approximately $800 million consumer loans used to finance home improvement products and services originated by Goldman Sachs Bank USA (the "Loan Originator") and Synovus Bank (the "Origination Partner") under the GreenSky Program. A portion of the collateral supporting the transaction includes Participations in "Open Purchase Window Loans", which are loans that have a remaining "purchase window" during which the related borrower is permitted to draw-down additional funds available under the related loan documents, up to a maximum amount.

Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Atlanta, GA, GreenSky administers the GreenSky Program for merchants and lenders that facilitates point-of-sale financing for consumers in the home improvement markets. In March 2022, GreenSky was acquired by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Loan Originator, a New York state-chartered bank. The Loan Originator originated substantially all loans under the GreenSky Program between mid-August 2022 and mid-March 2024. Effective March 15, 2024, the Loan Originator sold GreenSky (and certain associated assets) to a consortium of institutional investors led by Sixth Street, sold all outstanding loans made by the Loan Originator through the GreenSky Program to Synovus Bank and the Loan Originator ceased to own or originate loans made through the GreenSky Program. Approximately 1.3% of the loans in the transaction collateral pool were originated by the Loan Originator and approximately 98.7% were originated by the Origination Partner.

KBRA applied its Consumer Loan ABS Global Rating Methodology, as well as its Global Structured Finance Counterparty Methodology and ESG Global Rating Methodology as part of its analysis of the static pool data and the underlying collateral pool and stressed the capital structure based upon its stress case cash flow assumptions. KBRA considered its operational review of GreenSky, as well as several business updates with the Company. Operative agreements and legal opinions for the transaction were reviewed prior to closing.
