Key Credit Considerations

The rating actions reflect the following key credit considerations:

Credit Positives

  • Coverage from pledged revenues is exceptionally strong. Receipts in FY 2023 provide coverage of 25.5x pro forma maximum annual debt service.
  • The bonds are secured by the general obligation pledge of the State with additional credit protection provided by the pledged highway revenues, which effectively puts HCIB bondholders in a priority position relative to GO bondholders.

Credit Challenges

  • Socioeconomic indicators including population, employment and gross state product growth lag the U.S.

Rating Sensitivities

For Upgrade

  • Not applicable at AAA rating level.

For Downgrade

  • Significant deterioration in socioeconomic indicators relative to the U.S.
