KBRA affirms its ratings on ten classes of notes (Notes) issued by Hotwire Funding, LLC (the Issuer), a communications infrastructure securitization (CIS). KBRA’s analysis indicated that existing credit enhancement for the Notes is sufficient to support the affirmed ratings. The data used for this review is as of the April 2025 collection period (March 2025 payment date). To date, the securities have received timely interest payments and scheduled principal payments, if applicable.

The business of the Issuer is to own, manage, and operate fiber optic communication systems for the delivery of digital infrastructure services. These services are used by multi-dwelling units (MDUs) and/or multi-tenant properties including homeowners’ associations (HOAs), condominium associations (COAs), apartments, student housing, hotels and municipalities (each a Bulk Community), bulk upsell contracts where residents receive certain packaged services for a bulk rate (Bulk Upsell Contract), as well as individual residents that don’t reside in a Bulk Community (Retail Community) through retail contracts. The assets consist primarily of fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) infrastructure, related easements, rights of use and other access agreements (collectively, Fiber Network Assets), related customer contracts, and a shared infrastructure servicer agreement for use of certain shared assets necessary to operate such Fiber Network Assets.
