  • 1 To reflect the positively-skewed shape of the historic data histogram, the Logistic distribution (which is by definition symmetrical) is truncated at the 95th percentile value, equal to 10.81%. The

maximum value observed in the data series considered is 10.43% in the year 1983.

2 Annual probability distributions for Federal New Starts Grant Receipts are defined by minimum, maximum, and most likely forecast values provided by Sound Transit for forecast years between

2019 and 2044.

3 The fitted distribution was re-adjusted to achieve a mode equal to the forecasted interest rate of 5.3%. This was to account for the fact that the historical data is not a perfect proxy for Sound

Transit’s AAA-credit rating based interest rate.

2033-2042 Critical Periods for Risk

  • Minimal risk until approximately 2031
  • 2033-2035: Higher risk of exceeding borrowing capacity
  • 2038-2043: Higher risk of borrowing more than can be serviced
  • After 2043: Low risk (no more debt issued and ST2 debt retires)

Risk Assessment Expected Values

  • Risk Assessment shows:

– MVET and AV expected to be higher (on average) than forecasted – Expected values for coverage are greater than the base case values – Expected values for share of debt capacity utilized are lower than the base case values

  • More upside opportunity for sources than downside risk for uses

– Expected values for revenues exceed the base case model values by more than the expected values for capital and O&M costs changes – Construction cost variance (excluding inflation) has a comparatively small impact – Property assessed valuation risk has little effect on property tax revenues (due to statutory growth limits) but creates upside opportunity for debt capacity

  • Compounded effects of early year variance in sales tax and MVET growth rates have

the most impact on meeting coverage in 2038 (year with highest risk)
