Accordingly, we’re updating our full-year outlook to reflect a more moderate improvement in contract sales for the remainder of the year, along with the ongoing impact of limited Maui operations. We remain confident in our long-term strategy of driving tour flow and net owner growth to embed future value into the business and generate sustainable free cash flow.”

1. The Company’s current period results and prior year results include impacts related to deferrals of revenues and direct expenses related to the Sales of VOIs under construction that are recognized when construction is complete. These impacts are reflected in the sub-bullets.

Overview

For the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, diluted EPS was $0.83 compared to $1.24 for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. Net income and Adjusted EBITDA were $92 million and $269 million, respectively, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, compared to net income and Adjusted EBITDA of $150 million and $338 million, respectively, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. Total revenues for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, were $1,018 million compared to $1,116 million for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022.

Net income and Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, included a net deferral of $7 million relating to the sales of intervals of a project under construction in Japan during the period. The Company anticipates recognizing these revenues and related expenses in 2024 when it expects to complete this project and recognize the net deferral impacts.

Consolidated Segment Highlights – Third quarter of 2023

Real Estate Sales and Financing

For the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, Real Estate Sales and Financing segment revenues were $612 million, a decrease of $133 million compared to the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. Real Estate Sales and Financing segment Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA profit margin were $205 million and 33.5%, respectively, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, compared to $295 million and 39.6%, respectively, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. Results in the third quarter of 2023 declined due to lower sales of VOIs, lower fee-for-services commissions, and increase in provision partially offset by a reduction in cost of product and growth in interest income.

Real Estate Sales and Financing segment Adjusted EBITDA reflects a reduction of $7 million due to the net deferrals of sales and related expenses of VOIs under construction in the third quarter of 2023. These deferrals were related to sales of intervals of a project in Japan for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, compared to $43 million of net recognition of sales and related expenses of VOIs associated with a project in Hawaii for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022, which increased Adjusted EBITDA.

Contract sales for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, decreased $18 million to $603 million compared to the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. For the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, tours increased by 14.8% and VPG decreased by 13.5% compared to the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. For the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, fee-for-service contract sales represented 28.9% of contract sales compared to 28.2% for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022.

Financing revenues for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, increased by $7 million compared to the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. This was driven primarily by the increase in interest income from HGV's timeshare financing receivables portfolio. The Company experienced an increase in the timeshare financing receivables balance along with an increase in the weighted average interest rate for the originated portfolio of 52 basis points as of Sept. 30, 2023, compared to Sept. 30, 2022.

Resort Operations and Club Management

For the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, Resort Operations and Club Management segment revenue was $322 million, an increase of $23 million compared to the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. Resort Operations and Club Management segment Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA profit margin were $126 million and 39.1%, respectively, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023, compared to $112 million and 37.5%, respectively, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022. Compared to the prior-year period revenue in the third quarter of 2023 increased due to growth in HGV's member base and strong rental performance.

Inventory

The estimated value of the Company’s total contract sales pipeline is $11.6 billion at current pricing.

The total pipeline includes $6.4 billion of sales relating to inventory that is currently available for sale at open or soon-to-open projects. The remaining $5.2 billion of sales is related to inventory at new or existing projects that will become available for sale in the future upon registration, delivery, or construction.

Owned inventory represents 87.2% of the Company’s total pipeline. Approximately 56.2% of the owned inventory pipeline is currently available for sale.

Fee-for-service inventory represents 12.8% of the Company’s total pipeline. Approximately 47.6% of the fee-for-service inventory pipeline is currently available for sale.

With 23.4% of the pipeline consisting of just-in-time inventory and 12.8% consisting of fee-for-service inventory, capital-efficient inventory represents 36.2% of the Company’s total contract sales pipeline.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total cash and cash equivalents were $227 million and total restricted cash was $308 million as of Sept. 30, 2023.

As of Sept. 30, 2023, the Company had $2,730 million of corporate debt, net outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 6.67% and $1,038 million of non-recourse debt, net outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.30%.

Under the amendment, the new interest rate is SOFR plus a spread adjustment of 0.11% plus 2.75%, down from SOFR plus a spread adjustment of 0.11% plus 3.00%. Additionally, the interest rate floor for the Term loan was lowered from 0.50% to 0.00%.

As of Sept. 30, 2023, the Company’s total net leverage on a trailing 12-month basis was approximately 2.56x.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including Adjusted Net Income or Loss, Adjusted Diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA profit margin, Adjusted EBITDA profit margin, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, profits and profit margins for HGV’s key activities - real estate, financing, resort and club management, and rental and ancillary services. Please see the tables in this press release and “Definitions” for additional information and reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures.

The Company believes these additional measures are also important in helping investors understand the performance and efficiency with which we are able to convert revenues for each of these key activities into operating profit, both in dollars and as margins, and are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as one of common performance measures to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry.

The Company refers to Adjusted EBITDA guidance excluding deferrals and recognitions, which does not take into account any future deferrals of revenues and direct expenses related to the sales of VOIs under construction that are recognized, only on a non-GAAP basis, as the quantification of reconciling items to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is not readily available without unreasonable effort due to uncertainties associated with the timing and amount of such items. These items may create a material difference between the non-GAAP and comparable U.S. GAAP results.

DEFINITIONS

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, presented herein, is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP that reflects net income, before interest expense (excluding non-recourse debt), a provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, as previously defined, further adjusted to exclude certain items, including, but not limited to, gains, losses and expenses in connection with: (i) other gains, including asset dispositions and foreign currency transactions; (ii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iii) non-cash impairment losses; (iv) share-based and other compensation expenses; and (v) other items, including but not limited to costs associated with acquisitions, restructuring, amortization of premiums and discounts resulting from purchase accounting, and other non-cash and one-time charges.

EBITDA profit margin, presented herein, represents EBITDA, as previously defined, divided by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA profit margin, presented herein, represents Adjusted EBITDA, as previously defined, divided by total revenues.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

HGV believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions; and (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flow or other methods of analyzing our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our interest expense (excluding interest expense on non-recourse debt), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness;
• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;
• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for future replacements of assets that are being depreciated and amortized; and
• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be calculated differently from other companies in our industry limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

Adjusted Net Income or Loss and Adjusted Diluted EPS

Adjusted Net Income or Loss, presented herein, is calculated as net income further adjusted to exclude certain items, including, but not limited to, gains, losses and expenses in connection with costs associated with acquisitions, restructuring, amortization of premiums and discounts resulting from purchase accounting, and other non-cash and one-time charges. Adjusted Diluted EPS, presented herein, is calculated as Adjusted Net Income, as defined above, divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Adjusted Net Income or Loss and Adjusted Diluted EPS are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definition may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Net Income or Loss and Adjusted Diluted EPS are useful to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods.

Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow represents cash from operating activities less non-inventory capital spending.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow represents free cash flow further adjusted to exclude net non-recourse debt activities and other one-time adjustment items including, but not limited to, costs associated with acquisitions.

We consider Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow to be liquidity measures not recognized under U.S. GAAP that provides useful information to both management and investors about the amount of cash generated by operating activities that can be used for investing and financing activities, including strategic opportunities and debt service. We do not believe these non-GAAP measures to be a representation of how we will use excess cash.

Non-GAAP Measures within Our Segments

Sales revenue represents sales of VOIs, net, and Fee-for-service commissions and brand fees earned from the sale of fee-for-service VOIs. Fee-for-service commissions and brand fees represents sales, marketing, brand and other fees, which corresponds to the applicable line item from our condensed consolidated statements of operations, adjusted by marketing revenue and other fees earned primarily from discounted marketing related packages which encompass a sales tour to prospective owners. Real estate expense represents costs of VOI sales and Sales and marketing expense, net. Sales and marketing expense, net represents sales and marketing expense, which corresponds to the applicable line item from our condensed consolidated statements of operations, adjusted by marketing revenue and other fees earned primarily from discounted marketing related packages which encompass a sales tour to prospective owners. Both fee-for-service commissions and brand fees and sales and marketing expense, net, represent non-GAAP measures. We present these items net because it provides a meaningful measure of our underlying real estate profit related to our primary real estate activities which focus on the sales and costs associated with our VOIs.

Real estate profit represents sales revenue less real estate expense. Real estate margin is calculated as a percentage by dividing real estate profit by sales revenue. We consider real estate profit margin to be an important non-GAAP operating measure because it measures the efficiency of our sales and marketing spending, management of inventory costs, and initiatives intended to improve profitability.

Financing profit represents financing revenue, net of financing expense, both of which correspond to the applicable line items from our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Financing profit margin is calculated as a percentage by dividing financing profit by financing revenue. We consider this to be an important non-GAAP operating measure because it measures the efficiency and profitability of our financing business in connection with our VOI sales.

Resort and club management profit represents resort and club management revenue, net of resort and club management expense, both of which correspond to the applicable line items from our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Resort and club management profit margin is calculated as a percentage by dividing resort and club management profit by resort and club management revenue. We consider this to be an important non-GAAP operating measure because it measures the efficiency and profitability of our resort and club management business that support our VOI sales business.

Rental and ancillary services profit represents rental and ancillary services revenues, net of rental and ancillary services expenses, both of which correspond to the applicable line items from our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Rental and ancillary services profit margin is calculated as a percentage by dividing rental and ancillary services profit by rental and ancillary services revenue. We consider this to be an important non-GAAP operating measure because it measures our ability to convert available inventory and unoccupied rooms into revenue and profit by transient rentals, as well as profitability of other services, such as food and beverage, retail, spa offerings and other guest services.

Real Estate Metrics

Contract sales represents the total amount of VOI products (fee-for-service, just-in-time, developed, and points-based) under purchase agreements signed during the period where we have received a down payment of at least 10% of the contract price. Contract sales differ from revenues from the Sales of VOIs, net that we report in our condensed consolidated statements of operations due to the requirements for revenue recognition, as well as adjustments for incentives. While we do not record the purchase price of sales of VOI products developed by fee-for-service partners as revenue in our condensed consolidated financial statements, rather recording the commission earned as revenue in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe contract sales to be an important operational metric, reflective of the overall volume and pace of sales in our business and believe it provides meaningful comparability of HGV’s results the results of our competitors which may source their VOI products differently. HGV believes that the presentation of contract sales on a combined basis (fee-for-service, just-in-time, developed, and points-based) is most appropriate for the purpose of the operating metric; additional information regarding the split of contract sales, is included in Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our most recent Quarterly Report on form 10-Q for the period ended Sept. 30, 2023.

Developed Inventory refers to VOI inventory that is sourced from projects the Company develops.

Fee-for-Service Inventory refers to VOI inventory HGV sells and manages on behalf of third-party developers.

Just-in-Time Inventory refers to VOI inventory primarily sourced in transactions that are designed to closely correlate the timing of the acquisition with HGV’s sale of that inventory to purchasers.

Points-Based Inventory refers to VOI sales that are backed by physical real estate that is contributed to a trust.

NOG or Net Owner Growth represents the year-over-year change in membership.

Sales revenue represents Sale of VOIs, net and fee-for-service commissions and brand fees earned from the sale of fee-for-service VOIs.

Tour flow represents the number of sales presentations given at HGV’s sales centers during the period.

Volume per guest (“VPG”) represents the sales attributable to tours at HGV’s sales locations and is calculated by dividing contract sales, excluding telesales, by tour flow. The Company considers VPG to be an important operating measure because it measures the effectiveness of HGV’s sales process, combining the average transaction price with closing rate.
