KBRA downgrades the ratings of four classes of certificates and affirms all other outstanding ratings of WFCM 2019-C50, an $824.6 million CMBS conduit transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited an increase in estimated losses since last review, primarily associated with the InnVite Hospitality loan (2.3% of the pool balance).

As of the April 2024 remittance period, there are seven specially serviced assets (15.1%), including one REO asset (1.8%), two loans (4.9%) that are in foreclosure, and two other loans (3.3%) that are 90+ days delinquent. KBRA identified 10 K-LOCs (20.2%), including the specially serviced assets. The K-LOCs include:
