KBRA downgrades the ratings of three classes of certificates and affirms all other outstanding ratings of UBS 2017-C3, a $578.6 million CMBS conduit transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has incurred realized losses since last review from the March 2025 discounted payoff of the Crowne Plaza Memphis Downtown loan. The realized losses as well as KBRA's estimated losses for the transaction resulted in lower loss-adjusted C/E levels across the bottom of the capital structure. However, the transaction, particularly among higher rated classes, has benefited from deleveraging from loan payoffs, amortization, and defeasances.

As of the June 2025 remittance period, there are five specially serviced assets (17.2% of the pool balance), of which one (4.9%) is REO and one (4.8%) is over 60 days delinquent. KBRA identified 11 K-LOCs (29.1%), including the specially serviced assets. Of the 11 K-LOCs, four (17.9%) have estimated losses. The K-LOCs are displayed in the table below.
