Fitch downgrades outlook on Tennessee CCRC

Fitch Ratings downgraded the rating for the revenue refunding and improvement bonds series 2013 that were issued by the Health and Educational Facilities Board of the City of Johnson City, Tennessee on behalf of Appalachian Christian Village (ACV), doing business as Cornerstone Village to ‘D’ from ‘CC.’

The downgrade reflects ACV’s failure to pay its semi-annual interest payment on the bonds due on Aug. 15. Due to ongoing financial difficulties, ACV failed to make its payments toward debt service to the trustee, which resulted in the trustee drawing on its debt service reserve funds to make the semi-annual bond payment that was due on Feb. 15. While the remaining reserve has enough funds to cover the Aug. 15 payment, the trustee chose not to draw on the remaining trustee-held funds to make consecutive semi-annual bond payments.

In other ratings news, Fitch assigned a ‘BBB’ rating and stable outlook to Lifespire of Virginia — the first time the ratings agency conducted a financial assessment on the provider. Fitch cited LifeSpire’s strong operating profile with occupancy in each of the communities minimally affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Each community maintains a waitlist for independent living residences. Additionally, the report credited a solid financial profile and low long-term liability as key drivers for the rating.
