NEW YORK--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Fitch Ratings has affirmed GE Equipment Mid-Ticket LLC, Series 2011-1 as follows:
--Class A-2 at 'AAAsf'; Outlook Stable;
--Class A-3 at 'AAAsf'; Outlook Stable;
--Class A-4 at 'AAAsf'; Outlook Stable;
--Class B at 'AAsf'; Outlook to Positive from Stable.
The affirmations of the Class A and B notes in the transaction reflect loss coverage levels consistent with their respective ratings. As of the August 2012 reporting period, cumulative net losses totaled 10 basis points, and is extrapolating below Fitch's initial base case proxy. Due to amortization, credit enhancement has increased for the outstanding notes. The Outlook revision to Positive on Class B reflects the possibility for positive rating action in the near future as losses track below initial expectations and credit support is expected to continue to increase.
Fitch will continue to closely monitor this transaction and may take additional rating actions in the event of changes in performance and credit enhancement measures.
Additional information is available at '[ www.fitchratings.com ]'. The ratings above were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has been compensated for the provision of the ratings.
