KEY HIGHLIGHTS

First-Quarter 2019 Results

  • Total revenues for the first quarter were $450 million compared to $367 million for the same period in 2018.
  • Net income for the first quarter was $55 million compared to $30 million for the same period in 2018.
  • Diluted EPS for the first quarter was $0.58 compared to $0.30 for the same period in 2018.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $102 million compared to $62 million for the same period in 2018.
  • Contract sales in the first quarter were $322 million, a decrease of 2.1% from the same period in 2018.
  • Net Owner Growth (NOG) for the 12 months ended March 31, 2019, was 6.7%.
  • Completed the initial $200 million share repurchase authorization announced in November 2018, repurchasing 3.0 million shares in the first quarter for $97 million and an additional 0.9 million shares for $30 million through April 30, 2019.
  • Comparability of first quarter 2019 and 2018 results is affected by net construction-related deferrals of $37 million in the first quarter of 2018.

Outlook

  • Net income is now projected to be between $240 million and $255 million, reflecting lower Adjusted EBITDA, higher interest expense primarily driven by borrowings used to fund share repurchases and an increase in share-based compensation expense.
  • Diluted EPS is now projected to be between $2.61 and $2.77.
  • Full-year 2019 contract sales are expected to increase from 5.0% to 8.0% due to softer than anticipated contract sales growth in the first quarter and a project timing shift.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is projected to be between $445 million and $465 million reflecting current inventory mix and a project timing shift.
  • Adjusted free cash flow is projected to be between $60 and $120 million, unchanged from prior outlook.
  • The revised 2019 outlook does not reflect any additional share repurchases or construction-related deferrals or recognitions.

Overview

“HGV delivered strong Adjusted EBITDA and Net Owner Growth in the first quarter,” says Mark Wang, president and CEO of Hilton Grand Vacations. “Our performance is a direct result of the significant value we have embedded in the business by putting our owners on great vacations in desirable properties every day. Underscoring our ongoing focus on delivering shareholder value, we completed the initial $200 million of the share repurchase program we announced in November and have authorized an additional $200 million of capacity.”

For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, diluted EPS was $0.58 compared to $0.30 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Net income and Adjusted EBITDA were $55 million and $102 million, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $30 million and $62 million, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, were $450 million compared to $367 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

Net income and Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, do not include $37 million of revenues net of expenses relating to sales made at Ocean Tower by Hilton Grand Vacations Club and The Residences by Hilton Club projects that occurred during the quarter and were deferred until the second (The Residences) and fourth quarters (Ocean Tower) of 2018 when construction of those projects were completed.

Segment Highlights First Quarter 2019

Real Estate Sales and Financing

For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, Real Estate Sales and Financing segment revenues were $307 million, an increase of 27.4% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Real Estate Sales and Financing segment Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was $80 million and 26.1%, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $44 million and 18.3%, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Real Estate Sales and Financing results in first quarter 2019 improved over the prior-year period as favorable comparisons against construction-related deferrals offset lower contract sales.

Real Estate Sales and Financing results for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, do not include the $37 million of construction-related deferred revenues net of expenses referenced above. Please see Table T-1 for additional details.

Contract sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, decreased 2.1% to $322 million compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2018. For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, tours increased 6.4% and VPG decreased 8.0% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2018. For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, fee-for-service contract sales represented 59.0% of contract sales compared to 51.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

The decline in contract sales in first quarter 2019 reflects comparisons against the strong launch of the Ocean Tower project in the first quarter of 2018 and the effect of a limited mix and range of available unit types in certain key markets that impacted conversion rates and VPG. New inventory introductions throughout 2019 and 2020 are expected to mitigate this situation.

Financing revenues were $41 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, an increase of 7.9% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2018. This reflects a 5.9% increase in interest income, which was driven by a 3.4% increase in the net timeshare financing receivables portfolio and a 10 bps increase in the weighted average interest rate we receive on the portfolio. It also reflects a $1 million increase in other financing revenue related to growth in servicing revenues related to our third-party loan portfolios.

The weighted average FICO score of new loans made to U.S. and Canadian borrowers at the time of origination increased to 751 for the three months ending March 31, 2019, from 750 for the three months ending March 31, 2018.

For the three months ending March 31, 2019, 65.1% of HGV’s sales were to customers who financed part of their purchase, compared to 63.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

As of March 31, 2019, gross timeshare financing receivables were $1.3 billion with a weighted average interest rate of 12.3% and a weighted average remaining term of 7.7 years. As of March 31, 2019, 93.0% of HGV’s financing receivables were current, compared to 93.8% as of March 31, 2018.

Resort Operations and Club Management

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, Resort Operations and Club Management segment revenues were $110 million, an increase of 12.2% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018. Resort Operations and Club Management segment Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was $65 million and 59.1%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $59 million and 60.2%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Compared to the prior-year period, Resort Operations and Club Management results in the first quarter of 2019 benefitted from the additional club dues and transaction fees from the more than 19,000 net new members added over the previous 12-month period.

Inventory

The estimated contract sales value of HGV’s total pipeline is approximately $10 billion at current pricing, which represents approximately 7.1 years of sales at the current trailing 12-month sales pace.

The total pipeline includes approximately 1.5 years of sales relating to inventory that is currently available for sale at open or soon-to-open projects. The remaining 5.6 years of sales is inventory at new or existing projects that will become available for sale in the future upon registration, delivery or construction.

Owned inventory represents 77% of HGV’s total pipeline. Approximately 15% of the owned inventory pipeline is currently available for sale.

Fee-for-service inventory represents 23% of HGV’s total pipeline. Approximately 44% of the fee-for-service inventory pipeline is currently available for sale.

With 32% of the pipeline consisting of just-in-time inventory and 23% consisting of fee-for-service inventory, capital-efficient inventory represents 55% of HGV’s total pipeline.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total cash and cash equivalents was $222 million as of March 31, 2019, including $64 million of restricted cash.

As of March 31, 2019, HGV had $800 million of corporate debt, net outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.89% and $720 million of non-recourse debt, net outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 3.17%.

As of March 31, 2019, the company’s liquidity position consisted of $158 million of unrestricted cash and available capacity of $509 million on the revolving credit facility and $330 million on the warehouse facility.

Free cash flow was $4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $7 million in the prior period. Adjusted free cash flow was ($36) million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to ($32) million in the prior period.

Share Repurchase and Subsequent Events

On Nov. 28, 2018, the Company announced that its board of directors approved a $200 million share repurchase program. Under the program, repurchases may be carried out through open-market purchases, block trades or other transactions subject to customary restrictions through November 2019.

During the first quarter, the Company repurchased 3.0 million shares for $97 million at an average price of $31.92. Subsequent to the first quarter, through April 30, 2019, the Company repurchased an additional 0.9 million shares for $30 million at an average price of $32.55. The April 2019 repurchases substantially completed the company’s $200 million capacity under the initial authorization. Between the board authorization of the program in November 2018 through April 2019, the Company repurchased a total of 6.5 million shares for $199 million, representing an average repurchase price per share of $30.73.

On May 1, 2019, the Company announced that the board of directors approved an additional $200 million of share repurchase capacity under the existing authorization.

On April 25, 2019, the Company amended its $450 million timeshare facility, extending the commitment period from March 2020 to April 2021. The capacity of the amended facility remains $450 million and the terms of the facility have been modified to reduce fees and provide additional flexibility in the areas of international expansion, hedging and loan concentrations.

Total Construction Deferrals and/or Recognitions Included in Results Reported Under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 (“ASC 606”)

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA as reported under ASC 606 includes construction-related recognitions and deferrals of revenues and related expenses as detailed in Table T-1. Under ASC 606, the Company defers revenues and related expenses pertaining to sales at projects that occur during periods when that project is under construction until the period when construction is completed.

HGV deferred revenues and expense related to sales made at Ocean Tower for the first three quarters of 2018 and recognized them in the fourth quarter of 2018 when construction was complete. Likewise, HGV deferred revenues and expense related to sales made at The Residences in the first quarter of 2018 and recognized them in the second quarter of 2018 when construction was complete. These deferrals and recognitions of sales made in 2018 offset and there was no net financial impact in 2018.

The $79 million net recognition impact for 2018 relates to the recognition of revenues and expenses related to sales made at The Residences prior to 2018 that were recognized in the second quarter of 2018 when construction was complete. A portion of these pre-2018 sales had been partially recognized in prior periods under the previous accounting guidance, but as part of the adoption of ASC 606 on Jan. 1, 2018, those recognitions were reversed with a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings.

HILTON GRAND VACATIONS INC.
DEFINITIONS

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, presented herein, is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP that reflects net income (loss), 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) asset dispositions; (ii) foreign currency transactions; (iii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iv) non-cash impairment losses; (v) reorganization costs, including severance and relocation costs; (vi) share-based and certain other compensation expenses; (vii) costs related to the spin-off; and (viii) other items.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA 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 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 (loss), 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;
  • 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.

Real Estate Metrics

Contract sales represents the total amount of VOI products under purchase agreements signed during the period where HGVhas received a down payment of at least 10 percent of the contract price. Contract sales is not a recognized term under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to Sales of VOIs, net or any other comparable operating measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Contract sales differ from revenues from the Sales of VOIs, net that HGV reports in its consolidated statements of operations due to the requirements for revenue recognition as described in Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, as well as adjustments for incentives and other administrative fee revenues. HGV considers contract sales to be an important operating measure because it reflects the pace of sales in HGV’s business.

Developed Inventory refers to VOI inventory source from projects the Company develops.

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

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

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

Real estate margin represents sales revenue less the cost of VOI sales and sales and marketing costs, net of marketing revenue.Real estate margin percentage is calculated by dividing real estate margin by sales revenue. HGV considers this to be an important operating measure because it measures the efficiency of the Company’s sales and marketing spending and management of inventory costs.

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

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 dividingContract 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.

Free cash flow represents cash from operating activities less non-inventory capitalspending.

Adjusted free cash flow represents free cash flow less non-recourse debt activities, net.

Resort and Club Management and Rental Metrics

Transient rate represents the total rental room revenue for transient guests divided by total number of transient room nightssold in a given period and excludes room rentals associated with marketing programs, owner usage and the redemption of Club Bonus Points.
