KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to NMEF Funding 2022-A, LLC

KBRA assigns preliminary ratings to five classes of notes issued by NMEF Funding 2022-A, LLC (“NMEF 2022-A”), an equipment ABS transaction.

NMEF 2022-A represents North Mill Equipment Finance LLC’s (“North Mill”) fifth equipment ABS. North Mill is an independent equipment finance company created in 2012 when Colford Capital Holdings LLC acquired and re-branded Equilease Financial Services, which had been founded in 1957. Wafra Capital Partners subsequently acquired North Mill from Colford Capital Holdings LLC in August 2018.

NMEF 2022-A is backed by a pool of equipment loans and leases (“Equipment Contracts”). The statistical discounted pool balance (“Statistical Pool”) totals $313.68 million and represents the projected cash flows of the Equipment Contracts discounted at a rate of 4.00%. As of the initial cutoff date, the discounted contract value will be at least $337.94 million and the initial pool characteristics are expected to be substantially similar to the Statistical Pool. The total collateral may increase by up to a $82 million (20% of the pool balance) through the addition of Equipment Contracts during the three-month prefunding period. NMEF 2022-A will issue five classes of notes, including a short-term tranche. Credit enhancement includes excess spread, a reserve account, overcollateralization and subordination for senior classes. The overcollateralization is subject to a target equal to 20.5% of the current pool balance and a floor equal to 0.50% of the initial pool balance, accounting for any prefunding that occurs. The reserve account is funded at 1% of the initial pool balance and is non-amortizing.
