KBRA affirms all outstanding ratings for CALI 2019-101C, a $515.0 million CMBS SASB transaction. The affirmations follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited an improvement in collateral performance since last review, primarily driven by an increase in occupancy.

The collateral for the transaction is a $515.0 million portion of a $755.0 million non-recourse, first-lien whole mortgage loan. The mortgage loan consists of nine pari passu A notes totaling $527.0 million and two subordinate B notes totaling $228.0 million. The trust collateral includes two of the senior A notes totaling $287.0 million and the two subordinate B notes. The mortgage loan is secured by the borrower’s fee simple interest in a 48-story, 1.3 million square foot Class A office property at 101 California Street in San Francisco’s Financial District. The sponsor of the borrower is Hines Interests Limited Partnership, GIC (Realty) Private Limited, and Hong Kong Monetary Authority, previously an unnamed Asian governmental investor.

KBRA analyzed the cash flow for the property utilizing information from the trustee and servicer to determine KNCF. The analysis produced a KNCF of $56.8 million and a KBRA value of $784.0 million ($642 per sf). The resulting in-trust KLTV is 96.3%, compared to 102.7% at last review and 88.7% at securitization. KBRA revised the loan’s KPO to Perform from Underperform due to improved occupancy and financial performance, despite a continued decline in the submarket’s office fundamentals.
