J.Crew Group Inc. s distressed debt exchange and True Religion Apparel Inc. s bankruptcy propelled the TTM retail rate to.4%, with $3.8 billion of defaults over the past five months. Energy accounts for $7. billion of TTM volume, leading to a 17.4% July sector rate. Fitch anticipates the energy rate to finish 217 at 18%, with Seadrill Ltd. and Pacific Drilling near-term default candidates. Rate Below 2%: The default rate has remained in a tight 1.7% 2.% band since November. With no August defaults thus far, the rate falls to 1.7% from July s 1.9%. Fitch believes the rate has troughed and will climb to 2.% by year-end 217. Along with some energy and retail bankruptcies, there are a few defaults expected from other sectors later this year, notably iheartcommunications, Inc. Loans of Concern: With $34 billion outstanding, the Loans of Concern table highlights potential defaults over the next 12 months. Energy and metals/mining comprise 32% of the total, well below 6% seen one year prior. Retail contributes 14% of the current total. CLO Exposure: From the Loans list, the top five names held in Fitch-rated CLOs at the end of last month were Checkout Holding Corp. (84), Concordia International Corp. (72), Seadrill Ltd. (63), Getty Images Inc. (62) and Walter Investment Management Corp. (8). Fitch is monitoring Forterra Finance, LLC (held in 137 CLOs) and CPI Card Group Inc. (3) following weaker than expected earnings and a material drop in loan prices. The default rate for the overall Fitchrated CLO index is.4% at July 31. Post- Prices Steady: The July TTM 3-day, post-default, par-weighted bid price is 72% of par, up from 4% one year ago and above the historical 61% average. Energy is now 79%, significantly improved from 23% seen last year. The recent retail defaults have not fared as well. The post-default prices are at 44%, the lowest of any sector. Loan-Only Capital Structure: Nearly 6% of the $1.6 trillion institutional leveraged loan universe is made up of issuance by companies that have no high yield bonds in the capital structure from Fitch s bond index. That figure is essentially unchanged from one year earlier. However, the overall number rises to 78% when examining the universe based on issuance count due to the lack of bonds in large middle market transactions. Secondary Bids Rise: Average secondary bid prices for first-lien loans are at 98, with 67% above par. The broadly syndicated loan segment is even higher, at 98.4. Nevertheless, retail continues to languish with 31% bid below 9 versus 27% last month and 19% last August.

The loan facilities are all denominated in U.S. dollars and are comprised of institutional terms loans, drawn acquisition facilities, and bridge loans. Rated issuers in the index encompass companies with senior debt ratings from Fitch, Moody s, or S&P. Unrated issuers are included based on spread and leverage statistics. Broadly syndicated loans (BSLs) are defined as loans with a total deal size in excess of $ million, while large middle market (LMM) consists of loans with deal value of $1 million $ million. Those LMM loans with revenue of at least $ million are classified as BSL. Traditional middle market deals (under $1 million) are not included. A default is recorded when an index company: 1) files for bankruptcy protection, 2) after a 3-day grace period expires for a missed bond payment or a five-day grace period expires for a missed loan payment without a forbearance, or 3) there is a distressed exchange, which affects the loan facilities. The default rate is calculated by dividing the par value of affected loans by the average size of the market over a stated time horizon.

Reproduction or retransmission in whole or in part is prohibited except by permission. All rights reserved. In issuing and maintaining its ratings and in making other reports (including forecast information), Fitch relies on factual information it receives from issuers and underwriters and from other sources Fitch believes to be credible. Fitch conducts a reasonable investigation of the factual information relied upon by it in accordance with its ratings methodology, and obtains reasonable verification of that information from independent sources, to the extent such sources are available for a given security or in a given jurisdiction. The manner of Fitch s factual investigation and the scope of the third-party verification it obtains will vary depending on the nature of the rated security and its issuer, the requirements and practices in the jurisdiction in which the rated security is offered and sold and/or the issuer is located, the availability and nature of relevant public information, access to the management of the issuer and its advisers, the availability of pre-existing third-party verifications such as audit reports, agreed-upon procedures letters, appraisals, actuarial reports, engineering reports, legal opinions and other reports provided by third parties, the availability of independent and competent third-party verification sources with respect to the particular security or in the particular jurisdiction of the issuer, and a variety of other factors. Users of Fitch s ratings and reports should understand that neither an enhanced factual investigation nor any third-party verification can ensure that all of the information Fitch relies on in connection with a rating or a report will be accurate and complete. Ultimately, the issuer and its advisers are responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide to Fitch and to the market in offering documents and other reports. In issuing its ratings and its reports, Fitch must rely on the work of experts, including independent auditors with respect to financial statements and attorneys with respect to legal and tax matters. Further, ratings and forecasts of financial and other information are inherently forward-looking and embody assumptions and predictions about future events that by their nature cannot be verified as facts. As a result, despite any verification of current facts, ratings and forecasts can be affected by future events or conditions that were not anticipated at the time a rating or forecast was issued or affirmed. The information in this report is provided as is without any representation or warranty of any kind, and Fitch does not represent or warrant that the report or any of its contents will meet any of the requirements of a recipient of the report. A Fitch rating is an opinion as to the creditworthiness of a security. This opinion and reports made by Fitch are based on established criteria and methodologies that Fitch is continuously evaluating and updating. Therefore, ratings and reports are the collective work product of Fitch and no individual, or group of individuals, is solely responsible for a rating or a report. The rating does not address the risk of loss due to risks other than credit risk, unless such risk is specifically mentioned. Fitch is not engaged in the offer or sale of any security. All Fitch reports have shared authorship. Individuals identified in a Fitch report were involved in, but are not solely responsible for, the opinions stated therein. The individuals are named for contact purposes only. A report providing a Fitch rating is neither a prospectus nor a substitute for the information assembled, verified and presented to investors by the issuer and its agents in connection with the sale of the securities. Ratings may be changed or withdrawn at any time for any reason in the sole discretion of Fitch. Fitch does not provide investment advice of any sort. Ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security. Ratings do not comment on the adequacy of market price, the suitability of any security for a particular investor, or the tax-exempt nature or taxability of payments made in respect to any security. Fitch receives fees from issuers, insurers, guarantors, other obligors, and underwriters for rating securities. Such fees generally vary from US$1, to US$7, (or the applicable currency equivalent) per issue. In certain cases, Fitch will rate all or a number of issues issued by a particular issuer, or insured or guaranteed by a particular insurer or guarantor, for a single annual fee. Such fees are expected to vary from US$1, to US$1,, (or the applicable currency equivalent). The assignment, publication, or dissemination of a rating by Fitch shall not constitute a consent by Fitch to use its name as an expert in connection with any registration statement filed under the United States securities laws, the Financial Services and Markets Act of 2 of the United Kingdom, or the securities laws of any particular jurisdiction. Due to the relative efficiency of electronic publishing and distribution, Fitch research may be available to electronic subscribers up to three days earlier than to print subscribers. For Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan and South Korea only: Fitch Australia Pty Ltd holds an Australian financial services license (AFS license no. 337123) which authorizes it to provide credit ratings to wholesale clients only.
