Insights

CPS's latest $442.4 million securitization represents a strategic move in the current market environment. The deal's structure reveals several noteworthy aspects: First, the weighted average coupon of 5.88% reflects competitive pricing in today's interest rate environment. The tiered structure, ranging from 4.77% for AAA-rated senior notes to 7.65% for BB-rated subordinate notes, effectively balances investor yield demands with CPS's funding costs.

The transaction's credit enhancement features are particularly robust, including a 1.00% cash deposit and 4.35% overcollateralization, with provisions to increase to 8.50% of the original pool balance. This structure provides significant protection for senior noteholders while maintaining efficiency in CPS's capital utilization.

For investors, this marks CPS's 54th senior subordinate securitization since 2011 and their 37th consecutive deal achieving triple-A ratings, demonstrating consistent execution capability and strong market acceptance. The $462.5 million receivables pool backing the securities suggests healthy origination volume in their core market of non-prime auto loans.

The timing and pricing of this deal are particularly strategic, as it allows CPS to lock in funding costs for their loan portfolio while market conditions remain favorable. This transaction should provide sufficient liquidity for near-term origination growth while maintaining a conservative leverage profile.
