5 Sep 2025 | New York
KBRA downgrades the ratings of eight classes of certificates and affirms all other outstanding ratings of WFCM 2016-LC24, an $842.5 million CMBS conduit transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited a worsening in pool performance since KBRA's last ratings change in September 2024. The rating actions reflect KBRA's estimated losses and the resulting loss adjusted C/E levels.
As of the August 2025 remittance period, there are three specially serviced assets (8.2% of the pool balance), of which one (5.3%) is in foreclosure and one is REO (2.1%). KBRA identified 14 K-LOCs (25.1%), including the specially serviced assets. Of the K-LOCs, seven (17.4%) have estimated losses. The K-LOCs are depicted in the table below:
Excluding the K-LOCs with estimated losses, the transaction's WA KLTV is 81.5%, compared to 85.5% at KBRA's last ratings change in September 2024 and 99.2% at securitization. The KDSC is 2.02x, compared to 2.00x at KBRA's last ratings and above 1.97x at securitization.
