Current report
Management uses the following key performance metrics to assess the Company’s operational efficiency and market competitiveness, identify trends, develop financial projections, and support strategic decision-making. Management continuously monitors and analyzes these metrics to help ensure that the Company remains responsive to changing market conditions and aligned with our long-term growth objectives. The definitions and methodologies of certain of these metrics may differ from those used by other companies, and as a result, these metrics may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Management Priorities
Current report
Our management priorities for 2026 are as follows:
Current report
•Improve profitability and cash flowby driving higher free cash flow conversion through disciplined execution, tighter working capital and capital spending, and focusing on EBITDA performance.
Current report
•Strengthen leadership and talent through onboarding new leadership with the external expertise to drive improvement in consistency and long-term growth execution. We have also retained key existing leadership and talent throughout the organization to ensure continuity and retain historical business knowledge.
Current report
•Accelerate near-term, sustainable revenue growthby increasing contract sales through strengthened marketing and sales leadership, hiring proven frontline sales talent and critically improving our daily management discipline throughout our operating ecosystem. Inflight initiatives are intended to expand and diversify marketing opportunities. This will occur by improving lead generation, marketing efficiency and enhancing our products and services. The enhanced owner experience and events platforms should increase owner retention and generate referrals of potential new customers to support contract sales growth and higher VPG. We expect the financial benefits of these actions to become more evident in the second half of 2026 and into 2027 as we build a Tour pipeline that reflects these changes. In the interim, we expect that marketing and sales expenses will remain higher than 2025 to support these new initiatives in the near-term.
Current report
•Lower cost base by emphasizing operating discipline to drive improved cash flow through execution and cost management.
Current report
•Protect and grow recurring, high margin revenue streams thorough sustaining stable performance in our financing and management and exchange businesses to support earnings durability and cash flow.
Current report
•Disciplined capital allocation to fund the highest-return growth initiatives while prioritizing liquidity and balance sheet flexibility.
Current report
•Monetize non-core assetsto generate proceeds and support deleveraging and reinvestment priorities. By the end of 2027 we expect to generate between $200 million and $250 million of gross cash proceeds from the disposition of non-core assets Proceeds of $50 million were realized in the first quarter of 2026 from the disposition of a hotel in Cancun, Mexico and over $125 million of additional gross proceeds from dispositions are expected for the remainder of 2026.
Current report
•Optimize geographic mixby scaling back our operations in lower return areas, including our Asia Pacific business, to improve capital efficiency overall and future margins.
Current report
Commencing in the first quarter of 2026, interest expense associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility is included as a component of Consumer financing interest expense within Financing expense. For the first quarter of 2025, interest expense associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility is included as a component of Interest expense, net. Interest expense on our Warehouse Credit Facility was $3 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
Current report
(1)Includes $6 million of severance expense relating to changes in executive leadership that was recorded as General and administrative expense in the first quarter of 2026..
Current report
The decline in Tours was largely attributable to our planned actions relating to the change in strategy for our Asia-Pacific business as well as our intentional reduction in Tours for FICO scores below 640. Excluding Asia‑Pacific, Tours decreased 1% year-over-year. VPG increased 1% year-over-year on a consolidated basis and was up nearly 50 basis points excluding Asia‑Pacific.
Current report
We continue to expect a decline in rental profit in 2026 attributed to higher inventory and related unsold maintenance fees.
Current report
•Commencing in the first quarter of 2026, interest expense associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility is included as a component of Consumer financing interest expense within Financing expense. For the first quarter of 2025, interest expense associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility is included as a component of Interest expense, net. Interest expense on our Warehouse Credit Facility was $3 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. In addition, consumer financing interest expense increased by $2 million due to higher average securitized debt in the first quarter of 2026.
Current report
General and Administrative
Current report
General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2026 increased primarily due to $6 million of severance expense relating to changes in executive leadership and $3 million of share-based compensation for new executives, partially offset by $3 million of lower insurance expense and $3 million of lower other costs.
Current report
Modernization expenses during the first quarter of 2026 related to:
Current report
•$9 million for consulting costs relating to implementation of initiatives;
Current report
•$4 million for technology; and
Current report
•$3 million for the partial outsourcing of corporate overhead functions.
Current report
We expect to incur non-recurring expenses of approximately $85 million in the remainder of 2026 related to these modernization initiatives.
Current report
During the first quarter of 2026, we incurred $6 million of severance expense associated with certain organizational changes, primarily in our corporate support functions. An additional $6 million of severance expense associated with the organizational changes in our executive leadership team is presented as a component of General and Administrative expenses on our Income Statement.
Current report
(Losses) Gains and Other (Expense) Income
Current report
In the first quarter of 2026, we recorded $3 million of tax related adjustments to the receivable from Marriott International for indemnified tax matters and $3 million of foreign currency translation losses.
Current report
Interest Expense
Current report
The increase in Interest expense, net is primarily attributed to $10 million of interest on our 6.500% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2033 issued in the third quarter of 2025 (the proceeds of which were used to repay our $575 million 0.000% 2026 Convertible Notes). This increase was partially offset by the change in presentation of interest on our Warehouse Credit Facility and by lower interest on our Corporate Credit Facility and 2026 Convertible Notes which were repaid during the first quarter of 2026.
Current report
Commencing in the first quarter of 2026, interest expense associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility is included as a component of Consumer financing interest expense within Financing expense. For the first quarter of 2025, interest expense associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility is included as a component of Interest expense, net. Interest expense on our Warehouse Credit Facility was $3 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
Current report
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 differed from the blended U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate primarily due to a permanent adjustment related to interest on installment sales, higher projected foreign losses, for which a valuation allowance was recorded, and discrete income tax adjustments primarily associated with foreign operations, including a $6 million cumulative adjustment related to a foreign tax provision, and share-based compensation.
Current report
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 differed from the blended U.S federal and state statutory tax rate primarily due to lower pre-tax book income forecast at that time for the year in 2025, which was largely driven by our modernization efforts and related costs expected to be incurred, higher expected foreign losses, for which a valuation allowance was recorded, and discrete income tax adjustments, primarily related to share-based compensation.

Revolving Corporate Credit Facility
Current report
Disposition of Non-core Assets
Current report
As part of our broader financial strategic review in the fourth quarter of 2025, we conducted a comprehensive review to assess the strategic alignment of inventory and property and equipment within our North America vacation ownership business. This review focused on assessing inventory needs in light of our then-current inventory position and identifying opportunities to monetize non-core assets. During the first quarter of 2026, we received cash proceeds of $50 million from the sale of an entity that owned and operated a Vacation Ownership segment hotel in Cancun. Over the next two years we expect to generate between $200 million and $250 million of additional net cash proceeds from the disposition of certain non-core property and equipment and other assets with proceeds over $125 million in the remainder of 2026.
Current report
Timing of Estimated Tax Payments
Current report
As part of the federal tax relief provided by the Internal Revenue Service for businesses in areas of Florida affected by hurricanes during the third and fourth quarters of 2024, we were permitted to defer certain federal income tax payments without incurring interest or penalties. As a result, $38 million of estimated tax payments otherwise due in the third and fourth quarters of 2024 were deferred and paid in the second quarter of 2025. We do not have similar deferrals of estimated tax payments from 2025 into 2026.

Strategic Business Operations
Previous report
In the third quarter of 2025, we reorganized a portion of our corporate overhead in our human resources and finance and accounting functions and transitioned work to third-party providers, which we expect will result in annual cost savings of approximately $20 million which will be reflected in multiple expense lines on our income statements.
Previous report
2026 Outlook
Previous report
We expect our cost of vacation ownership products in 2026 will increase due to a change in the mix of inventory sold in North America and Asia Pacific. In addition, we expect higher costs associated with increased developer-owned inventory partially offset by higher rental revenues.
Previous report
We measure operating performance using the key metrics described below:
Previous report
•Contract sales from the sale of vacation ownership products is considered to be an important operating measure because it reflects the pace of sales in our business.
Previous report
•Total contract sales include contract sales from the sale of vacation ownership products, including non-consolidated joint ventures.
Previous report
•Tours is the number of sales tours performed during the applicable period, and generally includes virtual and offsite sales tours, and excludes telesales. We believe that Tours is a valuable metric because it represents the volume of touring guests.
Previous report
Additionally, during the third quarter of 2025, we reclassified $1 million of certain prior year amounts related to ongoing litigation from General and administrative expense to Litigation charges in order to conform with our current year presentation.
Previous report
(2)During the first quarter of 2025, we began excluding Amortization of cloud computing software implementation costs, which are not included in Depreciation and amortization, from Adjusted EBITDA, and have reclassified prior year amounts to conform with our current year presentation.
Previous report
During the second quarter of 2024, we discontinued classifying costs associated with the continued integration of Welk in Transaction and integration costs. Welk integration costs incurred after this period are reflected in the operating results of each of our segments and/or General and administrative expenses.
Previous report
•Owner contract sales declined 5% on lower VPG and flat tours.
Previous report
The increase in Sale of vacation ownership products for the first three quarters of 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in our sales reserve reflecting last year’s $70 million sales reserve adjustment (the “additional sales reserve”) recorded in the second quarter of 2024, partially offset by higher financing propensity and defaults in Asia Pacific in the first three quarters of 2025. In addition, contract sales decreased during the first three quarters of 2025 due to a 4% decrease in VPG and a 1% increase in tours, partially offset by higher revenue reportability in the first three quarters of 2024.
Previous report
•Owner contract sales declined 5% on lower VPG and tours.
Previous report
Excluding the impact of the additional sales reserve recorded in the second quarter of 2024, our sales reserve as a percent of contract sales in the first three quarters of 2025 is 120 basis points higher than the prior year comparable period. While our delinquency rates at September 30, 2025 have declined from those experienced in 2024, we do not expect to lower the sales reserve for new originations until we have sufficient, sustained evidence of continued improvement in delinquency and default rates.
Previous report
•lower Cost of vacation ownership products; and
Previous report
•higher Marketing and sales costs due to higher preview and marketing costs, including costs to generate future package tours.
Previous report
These were partially offset by:
Previous report
•$9 million of higher wages and benefits, including variable compensation;
Previous report
•$11 million of higher cost package tours and higher marketing and other costs; and
Previous report
•$8 million of higher costs for occupancy used for previews.
Previous report
Excluding the favorable impact of the additional sales reserve in the first three quarters of 2024, Cost of vacation ownership products decreased $23 million and Cost of vacation ownership products as a percentage of sales decreased approximately 160 basis points in the first three quarters of 2025.
Previous report
Excluding the impact of the additional sales reserve in the first three quarters of 2024, Development profit decreased $40 million and Development profit margin decreased approximately 290 basis points in the first three quarters of 2025.
Previous report
The increase in Resort management and other services profit reflects $4 million of higher management profit, $1 million of higher ancillary profit and $1 million of higher exchange profit.
Previous report
The increase in Resort management and other services profit reflects $12 million of higher management profit, $4 million of higher ancillary profit and $3 million of higher exchange profit.
Previous report
Rental profit declined due to:
Previous report
•$3 million of increased costs due to higher owner utilization of third-party vacation offerings, increased marketing, variable and other costs.
Previous report
These amounts were partially offset by a $2 million increase in costs allocated to marketing and sales expense for occupancy used for previews.
Previous report
Rental profit declined due to:
Previous report
•$17 million of lower plus point revenue attributed to the non-recurring impact of sales incentive programs put in place during COVID, which increased the amount of plus points issued and lengthened the use period in the prior year comparable periods;
Previous report
•$7 million of increased costs due to higher owner utilization of third-party vacation offerings.
Previous report
These amounts are partially offset by:
Previous report
•an $8 million increase in costs allocated to marketing and sales expense for occupancy used for previews.
Previous report
•The increase in financing expense is primarily attributed to higher credit card fees, partially offset by lower operating costs, including those resulting from our cost savings initiatives implemented in the third quarter of 2025.
Previous report
We expect our average interest rate to continue to increase as the current interest rate environment for new securitization transactions exceeds the average interest rate on our existing securitized debt. We do not adjust interest rates on consumer financing offerings at the same pace as, or in lock-step with, broader market interest rates; as a result, we expect our financing profit margin to continue to decrease in 2025, as we repay existing securitization transactions with proceeds from newer securitization transactions with lower interest rates.
Previous report
Litigation Charges
Previous report
Litigation charges during the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, as well as the first three quarters of 2025 and 2024, relate primarily to certain resorts in Europe.

Previous wording
•Volume per guest (“VPG”) is calculated by dividing consolidated vacation ownership contract sales, excluding fractional sales, telesales, resales, and other sales that are not attributed to a sales tour (referred to as Tours, see below), by the number of tours in a given period. We believe that VPG is valuable in evaluating the effectiveness of the sales process as it combines the impact of average contract price with the number of touring guests who make a purchase.
Current wording
•Volume per guest (“VPG”) is calculated as contract sales, excluding fractional sales, telesales, resales, and other sales that are not attributed to a sales tour (collectively, “Tours” as defined below) divided by the number of Tours conducted during the applicable period.

Current wording
•Average revenue per member is calculated by dividing membership fee revenue, transaction revenue, rental revenue, and other member revenue generated by the Interval Network by the monthly weighted average number of active members of the Interval Network during the applicable period. We believe this metric is a meaningful indicator of member engagement.
Previous wording
•Segment financial results attributable to common stockholders represents revenues less expenses directly attributable to each applicable reportable business segment (Vacation Ownership and Exchange & Third-Party Management). We consider this measure to be important in evaluating the performance of our reportable business segments. See Footnote 16 “Business Segments” to our Financial Statements for further information about our reportable business segments.
Current wording

EBITDA, a financial measure that is not prescribed by GAAP, is defined as earnings, or net income attributable to common stockholders, before interest expense, net (excluding consumer financing interest expense associated with term securitization transactions), income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA reflects additional adjustments for certain items, and excludes share-based compensation expense and amortization of cloud computing software implementation costs. Share-based compensation expense is excluded to address considerable variability among companies in recording compensation expense because companies use share-based payment awards differently, both in the type and quantity of awards granted. During the first quarter of 2025, we began excluding Amortization of cloud computing software implementation costs, which are not included in depreciation and amortization, from Adjusted EBITDA for comparability purposes to address the considerable variability among companies in the utilization of productive assets, and have reclassified prior year amounts to conform with our current year presentation.

Previous wording
For purposes of our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin calculations, we do not adjust for consumer financing interest expense associated with term securitization transactions because we consider it to be an operating expense of our business. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance, which we use to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, expand our business, and return cash to stockholders. We consider Adjusted EBITDA margin to be an indicator of our operating profitability.

We consider Adjusted EBITDA margin to be an indicator of our operating profitability.
Previous wording
We also use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as do analysts, lenders, investors, and others, because these measures exclude certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provisions for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin also exclude depreciation and amortization as well as amortization of cloud computing software implementation costs because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating or amortizing productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin also exclude depreciation and amortization, as well as amortization of cloud computing software implementation costs, because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating or amortizing productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.

Previous wording
Each of the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable transactions contains various triggers relating to the performance of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable. If a pool of securitized vacation ownership notes receivable fails to perform within the pool’s parameters (default or delinquency thresholds vary by transaction), transaction provisions effectively redirect the monthly excess spread of interest accruing on the related vacation ownership notes receivable less the interest accruing on the ABS securities and fees we would otherwise receive from that pool (attributable to the interests we retained) to accelerate the principal payments to investors (taking into account the subordination of the different tranches to the extent there are multiple tranches) until the performance trigger is cured. At the recent level of defaults, there is no impact to cash whether we repurchase defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable from a securitization VIE and pursue foreclosure or foreclose on behalf of a securitization VIE. During the third quarter of 2025, and as of September 30, 2025, we had 11 term securitization transactions outstanding, none of which were out of compliance with their respective required parameters. Since 2000, we have issued approximately $10.3 billion of debt securities in securitization transactions in the term ABS market, excluding amounts securitized through warehouse credit facilities or private bank transactions.

Generally, cash outflows related to our payment of maintenance fees associated with unsold inventory occurs in the fourth quarter for our points-based products, and in the first quarter for our weeks-based products. In addition, during the first quarter of each year, we generally have variable compensation-related cash outflows associated with payment of annual bonuses.

Previous wording
We plan to restrict our new inventory spending to capital efficient arrangements where our cash outlay coincides with start of sales, as well as low-cost reacquired inventory. Through our existing VOI repurchase program, we proactively acquire previously sold VOIs from owners’ associations and individual owners at lower costs than would be required to develop new inventory. Among other reasons for repurchasing inventory, we expect these repurchases will help stabilize the future cost of our vacation ownership products.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, we announced the creation of a Strategic Business Operations office focused on accelerating our growth and driving operating efficiencies in all areas of our business while increasing organizational agility. We are working to: modernize and optimize our processes and systems, including through advanced technology and automation; increase sales efficiency and inventory optimization; and capture significant savings from initiatives related to procurement and corporate overhead. We believe that we can drive $150 million to $200 million of annualized benefits from these initiatives by the end of 2026, with approximately half of these benefits coming from cost savings and efficiencies and the balance from accelerating revenue growth. We also expect to realize additional savings that will benefit our owners’ maintenance fees. We expect to incur non-recurring cash costs related to these modernization initiatives of approximately $100 million in each of 2025 and 2026.
