DBRS Finalizes Ratings on Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP, Series 2014-1 and Confirms Series 2013-3
AutoDBRS has today finalized the provisional ratings on the following classes issued by Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP, Series 2014-1:
-- Series 2014-1 Notes, Class A at AAA (sf)
-- Series 2014-1 Notes, Class B at AA (high) (sf)
-- Series 2014-1 Notes, Class C at A (high) (sf)
-- Series 2014-1 Notes, Class D at BBB (high) (sf)
-- Series 2014-1 Notes, Class E at BBB (sf)
DBRS has also confirmed its ratings on the following classes issued by Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP, Series 2013-3:
-- Series 2013-3 Notes, Class A at AAA (sf)
-- Series 2013-3 Notes, Class B at AA (sf)
-- Series 2013-3 Notes, Class C at A (sf)
-- Series 2013-3 Notes, Class D at BBB (sf)
As set forth in the rating report for Series 2014-1, the transaction includes a top obligor concentration limit that exceeds the typical DBRS criteria for top obligor concentrations. However, the rationale supporting the ratings where the top obligor exceeds this level includes: (a) the significant vehicle collateral value which underpins the lease obligations and (b) the fact that historical disposition proceeds have been in excess of 100% of net book value since 2006. Given the Master Trust structure this is applicable to Series 2013-3 also rated by DBRS.
The confirmation of the Series 2013-3 ratings also takes into account certain technical amendments that do not impact DBRS’s view of creditworthiness of the series.
