OREANDA-NEWS. Fitch Ratings has affirmed 13 classes of WFRBS Commercial Mortgage Trust (WFRBS) commercial mortgage pass-through certificates series 2013-C15. A detailed list of rating actions follows at the end of this press release.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

The affirmations are the result of stable performance of the underlying pool since issuance. As of the June 2016 distribution date, the pool's aggregate principal balance has been reduced by 5.3% to $1.05 billion from $1.11 billion at issuance. The pool has experienced no realized losses to date. One loan (0.2%) is defeased, and one loan is specially serviced (0.4%). Interest shortfalls are currently affecting the non-rated class G.

The largest loan in the pool (10.5%) is secured by an interest in a 1.1 million square foot (sf) regional mall located in Augusta, GA. The mall's anchors include Dillard's, Macy's, JC Penney and Sears, all of which are excluded from the collateral. As of year-end (YE) 2015, the servicer-reported collateral occupancy and debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) were 94.2% and 3.77x, respectively. In-line comparable sales were $473 psf as of YE 2015 compared to $466 psf the prior year.

The second largest loan in the pool (9.9%) is secured by two office properties, one located in Long Beach, CA and the other in Columbus, OH. Both properties are 100% leased to Molina Healthcare (lease expires April 2038), which subleases all the space to a can liner manufacturing company. The servicer-reported consolidated DSCR was 2.41x as of YE 2015.

The specially serviced loan is secured by a 75-room limited service hotel located in Sidney, MT. The loan transferred to specially servicing March 2016 due to imminent default. The property's performance has been impacted by recent volatility in the oil and gas industry and new competition. As of YE 2015, the servicer-reported DSCR was below 1.0x compared to 2.10x the prior year.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

The Rating Outlook remains Stable for all classes. Fitch does not foresee positive or negative ratings migration until a material economic or asset level event changes the transaction's portfolio-level metrics. Additional information on rating sensitivity is available in the report 'WFRBS Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust 2013-C15' (Aug. 23, 2013), available at www. fitchratings. com.
