KBRA downgrades the ratings of six classes, withdraws the rating of one class and affirms all other outstanding ratings for JPMBB 2014-C26, a $744.4 million CMBS conduit transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited an increase in KBRA's estimated losses on six of the K-LOCs (23.0% of the pool balance). However, the top of the transaction’s capital structure has benefitted from deleveraging from loan payoffs, amortization, and defeasance. The rating withdraw on Class A-3 follows the reduction of its principal balance to zero according to the September 2024 remittance report.

As of the September 2024 remittance period, there are six specially serviced assets (40.0%), of which, one (6.2%) is REO and one (3.7%) is 90+ days delinquent. KBRA identified 12 K-LOCs (58.0%), including the specially serviced assets. These include:

Eight top 10 assets (50.0%), of which, three (17.7%) have an estimated loss:

  • 500 Fifth Avenue (largest, 13.4% of the pool balance)
  • 1515 Market (2nd largest, 7.9%, 32.9% estimated loss severity)
  • Heron Lakes (3rd largest, 6.2%, 63.5%)
  • St. Louis Premium Outlets (4th largest, 5.8%)
  • The Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass (5th largest, 4.8%)
  • Holiday Inn & Suites Across from Universal Studios (7th largest, 4.3%)
  • Hyatt Regency Lexington (8th largest, 4.0%)
  • International Corporate Center (10th largest, 3.7%, 35.8%)

Three additional K-LOCs with estimated losses (3.2%):

  • Marriott Fort Lauderdale (3.0%, 10.6%)
  • Hilton Garden Inn Westhampton (1.4%, 52.8%)
  • Candlewood Suites Indianapolis Airport (0.9%, 21.2%)

The remaining K-LOC does not have an estimated loss and represents 2.8% of the pool balance.

Details concerning the classes with ratings changes are as follows:

  • Class A-3 to WR from AAA (sf)
  • Class D to B from BBB- (sf)
  • Class E to CC (sf) from B (sf)
  • Class F to C (sf) from CCC (sf)
