US CLOs: Reset Counts by Manager

The table below shows, for each manager, the total number of deals in the sample that have exited their non-call periods, along with the number of CLO resets conducted since mid-2023. Resets can offer meaningful benefits to both debt and equity investors. For debt holders, a reset functions much like a large prepayment event, with all tranches repaid at par — a favourable outcome, particularly for out-of-the-money senior tranches issued at tight spreads. Lower mezzanine investors also tend to prefer deals with a higher likelihood of reset, as it provides downside protection akin to an insurance policy. In underperforming deals, these tranches may trade at a discount due to low MVOCs, even in strong loan markets. A reset restores them to par, helping to mitigate risk.

Potential Equity IRR: Harvest CLO XVI

The AAA tranche was last refinanced in early 2021 at a very tight level of 3M EURIBOR + 64 bps. As of the May trustee report, its factor stood at 57%. During the post-reinvestment period, annual prepayment rates were 3.8% in the first year and 26.4% in the second. Investcorp has already called many seasoned deals in the third year post-RP, and this would add to that list.
