On January 23, 2019 we executed our first securitization of 2019. In the transaction, qualified institutional buyers purchased $254.4 million of asset-backed notes secured by $265.0 million in automobile receivables purchased by us. The sold notes, issued by CPS Auto Receivables Trust 2019-A, consist of five classes. Ratings of the notes were provided by Standard & Poor’s, and DBRS and were based on the structure of the transaction, the historical performance of similar receivables and our experience as a servicer. The weighted average yield on the notes is approximately 4.22%.

 

The 2019-A transaction has initial credit enhancement consisting of a cash deposit equal to 1.00% of the original receivable pool balance. The final enhancement level requires accelerated payment of principal on the notes to reach overcollateralization of the lesser of 8.50% of the original receivable pool balance, or 18.70% of the then outstanding pool balance. The transaction utilizes a pre-funding structure, in which CPS sold approximately $166.1 million of receivables on January 23, 2019 and sold $98.9 million of additional receivables on February 13, 2019. The transaction was a private offering of securities, not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, or any state securities law.

 

On February 22, 2019 we amended our $100 million warehouse credit line with Fortress Investment Group extending the revolving period to February 2021 followed by an amortization period through February 2023.
