The Vacation Ownership segment develops, markets and sells vacation ownership interests (“VOIs”) to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts.

The results of operations during the first quarter of 2020 include impacts related to ownersthe novel coronavirus global pandemic (“COVID-19”), which have been significantly negative for the travel industry, the Company, its customers and employees. In response to COVID-19, the Company temporarily closed its resorts in mid-March across the globe and suspended its sales and marketing operations. As a result, the Company significantly reduced its workforce and furloughed thousands of VOIsemployees. Given these significant events, the Company’s revenues were negatively impacted and managesit also incurred $241 million of charges related to COVID-19, which are discussed in further detail in Note 22COVID-19 Related Items.

New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes and clarifies the financial statement presentation for tax benefits related to tax deductible dividends. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Reference Rate Reform. In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. This guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020, and will apply through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued guidance which amends the guidance on measuring credit losses on financial assets held at amortized cost. The guidance requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This guidance iswas effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019,the Company on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within thosethe fiscal years.year. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures as the Company’s prior approach in estimating the allowance for loan losses generally aligned with the expected credit loss model required upon adoption of this guidance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ofhas included additional disclosures in accordance with the adoption of this guidance, on its financial statements and related disclosures.which are included in Note 8—

Table of ContentsVacation Ownership Contract Receivables.


Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies the current two-step goodwill impairment test by eliminating Step 2step two of the test. The guidance requires a one-step impairment test in which an entity compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any. This guidance iswas effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 andthe Company on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within thosethe fiscal years,year, and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for the interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance for lease accounting. The guidance requires a lessee to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all lease obligations and disclose key information about leasing arrangements, such as the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company adopted this standard using the modified retrospective approach; therefore, the Company used the transition method practical expedient under ASU 2018-11 and prior year financial statements were not recast. As a result of the adoption, on January 1, 2019 the Company recognized $158 million of right-of-use assets and $200 million of related lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets were decreased by $42 million of tenant improvement allowances and deferred rent balances reclassified from other liabilities. Both the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities recognized upon adoption included $21 million associated with the Company’s held-for-sale business. Right-of-use assets are included within Other assets and the related lease liabilities are included within Accrued and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the income statement related to existing leases; therefore a cumulative-effect adjustment was not recorded. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact consolidated net income, liquidity or compliance with our debt covenants under our current agreements. See Note 15— Leases for more information.

Implementation Costs in Cloud Computing Arrangements. In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance on implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software and also adds certain disclosure requirements related to implementation costs incurred for internal-use software and cloud computing arrangements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

Stock Compensation - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. In June 2018, the FASB issued guidance intended to simplify nonemployee share-based payment accounting. This new guidance more closely aligns the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2019 with no material impact to its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Revenue Recognition
Vacation Ownership
The Company develops, markets and sells VOIs to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts. The Company’s sales of VOIs are either cash sales or developer-financed sales. Developer financed sales are typically collateralized by the underlying VOI. Revenue is recognized on VOI sales upon transfer of control, which is defined as the point in time when a binding sales contract has been executed, the financing contract has been executed for the remaining transaction price, the statutory rescission period has expired, and the transaction price has been deemed to be collectible.

For developer-financed sales, the Company reduces the VOI sales transaction price by an estimate of uncollectible consideration at the time of the sale. The Company’s estimates of uncollectible amounts are based largely on the results of the Company’s static pool analysis which relies on historical payment data by customer class.

In connection with entering into a VOI sale, the Company may provide its customers with certain non-cash incentives, such as credits for future stays at its resorts. For those VOI sales, the Company bifurcates the sale and allocates the sales price between the VOI sale and the non-cash incentive. Non-cash incentives generally have expiration periods of 18 months or less and are recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control.

Practical Expedients
The Company has not adjusted the consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it expected, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company satisfied the performance obligation and when the customer paid for that good or service was one year or less.

For contracts with customers that were modified prior to 2015, the Company did not retrospectively restate the revenue associated with the contract for those modifications. Instead, it reflected the aggregate effect of all prior modifications in determining (i) the performance obligations and transaction prices, and (ii) the allocation of such transaction prices to the performance obligations.

Performance Obligations
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. The consideration received from a customer is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, each performance obligation is satisfied.

Acquisitions
Alliance Reservations Network. On August 7, 2019, the Company acquired all of the equity of ARN. ARN provides private-label travel booking technology solutions. This acquisition was undertaken for the purpose of accelerating growth at RCI by increasing the offerings available to its members and affiliates. ARN was acquired for $102 million ($97 million net of cash acquired), subject to customary post-closing adjustments based on final valuation information and additional analysis. The fair value of purchase consideration was comprised of: (i) $48 million delivered at closing; (ii) Wyndham Destinations stock valued at $10 million (253,350 shares at $39.29 per share) delivered at closing; (iii) $21 million to be paid over 24 months post-closing; (iv) $10 million of contingent consideration based on achieving certain financial and operational metrics; and (v) additional shares of Wyndham Destinations stock valued at $13 million to be paid on August 7, 2020.

The Company has recognized the assets and liabilities of ARN based on estimates of their acquisition date fair values. The determination of the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including goodwill and other intangible assets, requires significant judgment. The preliminary purchase price allocation, including the impacts of certain post-closing adjustments, consists of: (i) $20 million of developed software with a weighted average life of 10 years included within Property and equipment, net; (ii) $45 million of Goodwill; (iii) $36 million of definite-lived intangible assets with a weighted average life of 12 years primarily consisting of customer relationships; and (iv) $4 million of Accounts payable. All of the goodwill and other intangible assets are expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. ARN is reported within the Vacation Exchange segment.

Given the impact of COVID-19 on the industry and business, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of the goodwill acquired as part of the ARN acquisition as of March 31, 2020. Based on the results of this assessment, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that the goodwill of ARN is not impaired.

Although the Company does not believe the goodwill of ARN is impaired at this time, to the extent estimated market-based valuation multiples and/or discounted cash flows are revised downward, as a result of continued COVID-19 impacts or other events, the Company may be required to write-down all or a portion of this goodwill, which would negatively impact earnings.

As a result of the impacts of COVID-19, the Company also performed an interim impairment analysis of ARN’s property and equipment and other intangible assets as of March 31, 2020, and determined these assets were not impaired.

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $129 million and $238$315 million as a reduction of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020, and $126 million and $218$109 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.March 31, 2019. Due to the closure of resorts and sales centers and the current economic downturn resulting from COVID-19, the Company evaluated the potential impact of COVID-19 on its owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables and as a result of higher unemployment, the Company increased its loan loss allowance. This was reflected as a $225 million reduction to Vacation ownership interest sales and a $55 million reduction to (Recovery)/cost of vacation ownership interests on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income.

Estimating the amount of the additional loan loss allowance for COVID-19 involved the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Management based its estimates on the Company’s historical data during the most recent recession in 2008 utilizing the relationship between unemployment rates and net new defaults. The Company’s estimate assumes that it would take approximately 18 months for employment rates to return to the levels pre-COVID-19. The Company will update these estimates as more data is available.

Credit Quality for Financed Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses
The basis of the differentiation within the identified class of financed VOI contract receivables is the consumer’s Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) score. A FICO score is a branded version of a consumer credit score widely used inwithin the United StatesU.S. by the largest banks and lending institutions. FICO scores range from 300 to 850 and are calculated based on information obtained from one or more of the three major U.S. credit reporting agencies that compile and report on a consumer’s credit history. The Company updates its records for all active VOI contract receivables with a balance due on a rolling monthly basis to ensure that all VOI contract receivables are scored at least every six months. The Company groups all VOI contract receivables into five different categories: FICO scores ranging from 700 to 850, from 600 to 699, below 600, no score (primarily comprised of consumers for whom a score is not readily available, including consumers declining access to FICO scores and non-U.S. residents), and Asia Pacific (comprised of receivables in the Company’s Wyndham Vacation Club Asia Pacific business for which scores are not readily available).

The Company ceases to accrue interest on VOI contract receivables once the contract has remained delinquent for greater than 90 days. At greater than 120 days, the VOI contract receivable is written off to the allowance for loan losses. In accordance with its policy, the Company assesses the allowance for loan losses using a static pool methodology and thus does not assess individual loans for impairment separate from the pool.

Debt Covenants
The revolving credit facilities and term loan B are subject to covenants including the maintenance of specific financial ratios as defined in the credit agreement. The financial ratio covenants consist of a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0 as of the measurement date and a maximum first lien leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25 to 1.0 as of the

measurement date. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) by consolidated interest expense (as defined in the credit agreement), both as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. As of June 30, 2019, ourMarch 31, 2020, the Company’s interest coverage ratio was 6.56.8 to 1.0. The first lien leverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated first lien debt (as defined in the credit agreement) as of the measurement date by consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. As of June 30, 2019, ourMarch 31, 2020, the Company’s first lien leverage ratio was 2.9 to 1.0. These ratios do not include interest expense or indebtedness related to any qualified securitization financing (as defined in the credit agreement). As of June 30, 2019, we wereMarch 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants described above. The continued impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s industry and business will lead to a higher first lien leverage ratio in the future. Under the credit agreement, if this ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.0, the interest rate on revolver borrowings would increase 25 basis points, and the Company would be subject to higher fees associated with its letters of credit.

Each of ourthe Company’s non-recourse, securitized term notes, and the bank conduit facilities contain various triggers relating to the performance of the applicable loan pools. If the vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs pool that collateralizes one of ourthe Company’s securitization notes fails to perform within the parameters established by the contractual triggers (such as higher default or delinquency rates), there are provisions pursuant to which the cash flows for that pool will be maintained in the securitization as extra collateral for the note holders or applied to accelerate the repayment of outstanding principal to the note holders. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, all of ourthe Company’s securitized loan pools were in compliance with applicable contractual triggers.

Transition from LIBOR
21

The Company is currently evaluating the impactTable of the transition from LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark to other potential alternative reference rates, including but not limited to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Currently the Company has several debt and derivative instruments in place that reference LIBOR-based rates. The transition from LIBOR is estimated to take place in 2021 and management will continue to actively assess the related opportunities and risks involved in this transition.Contents

Variable Interest Entities
In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), the Company analyzes its variable interests, including loans, guarantees, special purpose entities (“SPEs”)SPEs, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which the Company has a variable interest is a VIE. If the entity is considered to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be considered the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company consolidates into its financial statements those VIEs for which it has determined that it is the primary beneficiary.

Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables Securitizations
The Company pools qualifying vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs and sells them to bankruptcy-remote entities. Vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs qualify for securitization based primarily on the credit strength of the VOI purchaser to whom financing has been extended. Vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs are securitized through bankruptcy-remote SPEs that are consolidated within the Company’s financial statements. As a result, the Company does not recognize gains or losses resulting from these securitizations at the time of sale to the SPEs. Interest income is recognized when earned over the contractual life of the vacation ownership contract receivables.VOCRs. The Company services the securitized vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs pursuant to servicing agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis based on market conditions. The activities of these SPEs are limited to (i) purchasing vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs from the Company’s vacation ownership subsidiaries, (ii) issuing debt securities and/or borrowing under a conduit facility to fund such purchases, and (iii) entering into derivatives to hedge interest rate exposure. The bankruptcy-remote SPEs are legally separate from the Company. The receivables held by the bankruptcy-remote SPEs are not available to creditors of the Company and legally are not assets of the Company. Additionally, the non-recourse debt that is securitized through the SPEs is legally not a liability of the Company and thus, the creditors of these SPEs have no recourse to the Company for principal and interest.

Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands Property
During 2015, the Company sold real property located in Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, to a third-party developer to construct VOI inventory through an SPE. In accordance with the agreements with the third-party developer, the Company hashad conditional rights and conditional obligations to repurchase the completed property from the developer subject to the property conforming to the Company's vacation ownership resort standards and provided that the third-party developer hashad not sold the property to another party.

As a result of a disruption to VOI sales caused by the impact of the hurricanes on Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, in 2017 there was a change in the economics of the transaction due to a reduction in the fair value of the assets of the SPE. As such, the Company is now considered the primary beneficiary for specified assets and liabilities of the SPE, and therefore consolidated $64 million of Property and equipment and $104 million of Debt on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As a result of this consolidation, the Company incurred a non-cash $37 million loss due to a write-down of property and equipment to fair value.SPE. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company made its final purchase of VOI inventory from the SPE, and the debt was extinguished.

Fair Value
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis and utilizes the fair value hierarchy to determine such fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value driver is observable.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs used when little or no market data is available.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls has been determined based on the lowest level input (closest to Level 3) that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The Company’s derivative instruments primarilycurrently consist of receive-fixed/pay-variable interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and foreign exchange forward contracts.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company had interest rate swap contracts and foreign exchange contracts resultingwhich resulted in $1$2 million and less than $1 million, respectively, of assets which are included within Other assets and $1 million of liabilities which are included within Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.Sheets. On a recurring basis, such assets and liabilities (all of which are Level 2) are remeasured at estimated fair value (all of which are Level 2) and thus are equal to the carrying value.

For assets and liabilities that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, the fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. Assets and liabilities that are measured using other significant observable inputs are valued by reference to similar assets and liabilities. For these items, a significant portion of fair value is derived by reference to quoted prices of similar assets and liabilities in active markets. For assets and liabilities that are measured using significant unobservable inputs, fair value is primarily derived using a fair value model, such as a discounted cash flow model.

The fair value of financial instruments is generally determined by reference to market values resulting from trading on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques, as appropriate. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

The Company estimates the fair value of its vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs using a discounted cash flow model which it believes is comparable to the model that an independent third-party would use in the current market. The model uses Level 3 inputs consisting of default rates, prepayment rates, coupon rates, and loan terms for the contract receivables portfolio as key drivers of risk and relative value that, when applied in combination with pricing parameters, determines the fair value of the underlying contract receivables.

The Company estimates the fair value of its non-recourse vacation ownership debt by obtaining Level 2 inputs comprised of indicative bids from investment banks that actively issue and facilitate the secondary market for timeshare securities.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Foreign Currency Risk
The Company has foreign currency rate exposure to exchange rate fluctuations worldwide with particular exposure to the Euro, British pound, Euro, theAustralian and Canadian dollars, Mexican peso, and Australian dollars and the Mexican peso.South African rand. The Company uses freestanding foreign currency forward contracts to manage a portion of its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with its foreign currency denominated receivables, payables, and forecasted earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Additionally, the Company has used foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage a portion of its exposure to changes in forecasted foreign currency denominated vendor payments. The amount of gains or losses relating to contracts designated as cash flow hedges that the Company expects to reclassify from Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) to earnings over the next 12 months is not material.

Interest Rate Risk
A portion of the debt used to finance the Company’s operations is exposed to interest rate fluctuations. The Company periodically uses various hedging strategies and derivative financial instrumentsderivatives to create a desiredstrategically adjust its mix of fixed andto floating rate assets and liabilities. Derivativedebt. The derivative instruments currently used in these hedging strategiesutilized include swaps. Interestinterest rate swaps are used towhich convert specific fixed-ratefixed–rate debt into variable-ratevariable–rate debt (i.e., fair value hedges) to manage the overall interest cost. For relationships designated as fair value hedges, changes in fair value of the derivatives wereare recorded in income, with offsetting adjustments to income, partially offset by changes in the fair valuecarrying amount of the hedged debt. The difference in these values resulted in an immaterial impact toAs of March 31, 2020, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.Company had 0 fair value interest rate hedges.

Losses on derivatives recognized in AOCL for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018 were not material.

The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2015.2016. In addition, with few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state, local or foreign income tax examinations for years prior to 2010.

The Company’s effective tax rate decreased from 68.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2018 to 27.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to the absence of non-cash tax charges from certain internal restructurings associated with the sale of the European vacation rentals business and non-cash state tax charges associated with the separation of the hotel business during 2018; partially offset by excess tax benefits in relation to stock based compensation in 2018.current year.

15. Leases
The Company adopted the new Leases accounting standard as of January 1, 2019, resulting in the recognition of $158 million of right-of-use assets and $200 million of related lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets were decreased by $42 million of tenant improvement allowances and deferred rent balances reclassified from other liabilities. Both the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities recognized upon adoption included $21 million associated with the Company’s held-for-sale business. The new standard requires a lessee to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all lease obligations and disclose key information about leasing arrangements, such as the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. We adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach; therefore, prior year financial statements were not recast. We elected the package of transition provisions available for expired or existing contracts, which allowed us to carryforward our historical assessments of (i) whether contracts are leases or contain leases, (ii) lease classification and (iii) initial direct costs.2019.

We leaseTax positions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted as new information becomes available. The recoverability of deferred tax assets is evaluated by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including reversal of taxable temporary differences, available tax planning strategies and forecasted operating earnings. These estimates of future taxable income inherently require significant judgment. To the extent it is considered more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be not recovered, a valuation allowance is established. The significant negative impacts of COVID-19 resulted in the establishment of additional valuation allowances in the first quarter of 2020 of $3 million related to foreign tax credits. 

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was established to provide emergency assistance and health care for individuals, families, and businesses affected by COVID-19 and generally support the U.S. economy. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Company expects to take advantage of the payroll tax credits and deferral of the social security payments. The Company will also have additional depreciation deductions relating to qualified improvement property. The Company has not completed the full analysis of the impact of the CARES Act.

Leases
The Company leases property and equipment under finance and operating leases for ourits corporate headquarters, administrative functions, marketing and sales offices, and various other facilities and equipment. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, we recordthe Company records the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Many of ourits leases include rental escalation clauses, lease incentives, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into ourthe Company’s determination of lease payments. The Company elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases. The Company also made an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the income statement.statements of (loss)/income.

When available, we usethe Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of ourits leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, wethe Company must estimate ourits incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. OurThe majority of the Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one year to 20 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five10 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within one year.

During 2018, the Company incurred total rental expense of $61 million for continuing operations and $9 million for discontinued operations.

Subsequent to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and in accordance with the Company’s decision to further reduce its corporate footprint, the Company focused on rationalizing existing facilities which included abandoning portions of its administrative offices in New Jersey. As a result, during the second quarter of 2019 the Company recorded $10 million of non-cash impairment charges associated with the write-off of right-of-use assets and furniture, fixtures and equipment.

16. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries related to the Company’sits business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material effect on ourthe Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

Wyndham Destinations Litigation
The Company may be from time to time involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries arising in the ordinary course of its business including but not limited to: for its vacation ownership business–breach of contract, bad faith, conflict of interest, fraud, consumer protection and other statutory claims by property owners’ associations, owners and prospective owners in connection with the sale or use of VOIs or land, or the management of vacation ownership resorts, construction defect claims relating to vacation ownership units or resorts or in relation to guest reservations and bookings; and negligence, breach of contract, fraud, consumer protection and other statutory claims by guests and other consumers for alleged injuries sustained at or acts or occurrences related to vacation ownership units or resorts or in relation to guest reservations and bookings; for its vacation exchange and rentals business–breach of contract, fraud and bad faith claims by affiliates and customers in connection with their respective agreements, negligence, breach of contract, fraud, consumer protection and other statutory claims asserted by members, guests and other consumers for alleged injuries sustained at or acts or occurrences related to affiliated resorts, and vacation rental properties, or in relation to guest reservations and bookings; and for each of its businesses, bankruptcy proceedings involving efforts to collect receivables from a debtor in bankruptcy, employment matters including but not limited to, claims of wrongful termination, retaliation, discrimination, harassment and wage and hour claims, whistleblower claims, claims of infringement upon third parties’ intellectual property rights, claims relating to information security, privacy and consumer protection, fiduciary duty/trust claims, tax claims, environmental claims, and landlord/tenant disputes.

The Company records an accrual for legal contingencies when it determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In making such determinations, the Company evaluates, among other things, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, the Company’s ability to make a reasonable estimate of loss. The Company reviews these accruals each reporting periodfiscal quarter and makes revisions based on changes in facts and circumstances including changes to its strategy in dealing with these matters.

The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for such matters with reserves of $13$11 million and $14$13 million as of June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018.2019. Such reserves are exclusive of matters relating to the Company’s separation from Cendant, matters relating to the Spin-off, matters relating to the sale of the European vacation rentals business, and matters relating to the sale of the European vacationsNorth American vacation rentals business, which are discussed in Note 22—25—Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries. For matters not requiring accrual, the Company believes that such matters will not have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows based on information currently available.L However, litigationitigation is inherently unpredictable and, although the Company believes that its accruals are adequate and/or that it has valid defenses in these matters, unfavorable results could occur. As such, an adverse outcome from such proceedings for which claims are awarded in excess of the amounts accrued, if any, could be material to the Company with respect to earnings and/or cash flows in any given reporting period. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the potential exposure resulting from adverse outcomes of such legal proceedings could, in the aggregate, range up to $48$34 million in excess of recorded accruals. However, the Company does not believe that the impact of such litigation should result in a material liability to the Company in relation to its consolidated financial position and/or liquidity.

For matters deemed reasonably possible, therefore not requiring accrual, the Company believes that such matters will not have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows based on information currently available. As of March 31, 2020, the potential exposure resulting from adverse outcomes of such legal proceedings could, in the aggregate, range to an amount that is less than $1 million.

GUARANTEES/INDEMNIFICATIONS
Standard Guarantees/Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into agreements that contain standard guarantees and indemnities whereby the Company indemnifies another party for specified breaches of, or third-party claims relating to, an underlying agreement. Such underlying agreements are typically entered into by one of the Company’s subsidiaries. The various underlying agreements generally govern purchases, sales or outsourcing of products or services, leases of real estate, licensing of software and/or development of vacation ownership properties, access to credit facilities, derivatives and issuances of debt securities. Also in the ordinary course of business, the Company provides corporate guarantees for its operating business units relating to merchant credit-card processing for prepaid customer stays and other deposits. While a majority of these guarantees and indemnifications extend only for the duration of the underlying agreement, some survive the expiration of the agreement. The Company is not able to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments to

be made under these guarantees and indemnifications as the triggering events are not predictable. In certain cases, the Company maintains insurance coverage that may mitigate any potential payments.

Other Guarantees and Indemnifications
Vacation Ownership
The Company has committed to repurchase completed property located in Las Vegas, Nevada, from a third-party developer subject to such property meeting the Company’s vacation ownership resort standards and provided that the third-party developer has not sold such property to another party.

BUSINESS AND OVERVIEW
We are a global provider of hospitality services and products and operate our business in the following two segments:
Vacation Ownership—develops, markets and sells vacation ownership interests (“VOIs”) to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts.
Vacation Exchange & Rentals—provides leisure travelers with flexibility and access to a wide variety of accommodation options that include vacation exchange servicesownership resorts, hotels, privately-owned vacation homes, apartments, and products to owners of VOIs and manages and markets vacation rental properties primarily on behalf of independent owners.condominiums around the world.

COVID-19 impacts
The results of operations during the first quarter of 2020 include impacts related to COVID-19, which have been significantly negative for the travel industry, our company, our customers, and our employees. In response to COVID-19, we temporarily closed our resorts in mid-March across the globe and suspended our sales and marketing operations. As a result, we have reduced our workforce and furloughed thousands of employees. Given the magnitude of these events, our revenues were negatively impacted in the first quarter and we incurred $241 million of charges directly related to COVID-19, which are discussed in further detail in Note22—COVID-19 Related Items to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Currently, we are taking reservations for our resorts beginning May 26, 2020; however, the re-opening of resorts could be delayed. We expect to see U.S. consumers shift from international to domestic travel and also to destinations that require driving versus flying. We believe these shifts may be favorable to the timeshare industry. In addition, we believe larger condominium-like accommodations with kitchens will be more amenable for social distancing and travelers will also seek trusted brands in whom they can be comfortable that the vacation accommodations have been thoroughly cleaned for their arrival. Historically, occupancy at our resorts has remained high in downturns because our owners own their vacations and are therefore committed to traveling. We believe that this time will not be any different and encouragingly, we have seen demand return for reservations and exchanges for the last six months of 2020, which suggests that demand may be strong despite higher

38


unemployment driven by COVID-19. Given that our resorts and sales centers are not expected to re-open until May 26th at the earliest, revenues and profitability will significantly decrease in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year.

Continued closure of our resorts and sales centers could result in additional COVID-19 charges including idle pay for certain sales and marketing employees and potential further impairment of assets. Continued closure could also lead to additional pressure on the allowance for loan losses for vacation ownership contract receivables (“VOCRs”) if unemployment rates increase and/or our collection experience declines more than we estimated in the first quarter. The additional $225 million allowance recorded in the first quarter provided for the full estimated impact of a prolonged recession (approximately 18 months to return to pre-COVID-19 employment) based on our historical data for the most recent recession in 2008; therefore, we would not expect any future additional adjustments to be as material as the adjustment taken in the first quarter. Additionally, if the recovery from COVID-19 happens more quickly than assumed, there could be an adjustment to reduce this additional allowance in future periods.

Given a range of different scenarios with a gradual return to normal operations beginning in the second quarter of 2020, we expect to maintain adequate liquidity and remain in compliance with debt covenants. As a precautionary measure to enhance liquidity, we drew down our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility at the end of the first quarter and have $1.02 billion of cash on hand. We suspended share repurchases in March and have made other operational decisions to preserve cash while preparing for the re-opening of our resorts. We continue to generate revenue and cash through the collection of resort management fees and exchange fees and also generate cash from VOCR collections. Although access to public asset-backed security funding has slowed as COVID-19 negatively impacted the capital markets in the first quarter, we successfully closed on a $325 million private securitization financing on April 29, 2020. While this transaction was at a higher cost compared to transactions we have completed in the past, it was favorable to similar transactions completed recently in the public market, and more importantly, provides reinforcement that we expect to maintain adequate liquidity. Given the uncertainty around COVID-19, we have withdrawn our full year outlook for revenue and earnings.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was established to provide emergency assistance and health care for individuals, families, and businesses affected by COVID-19 and generally support the U.S. economy. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. We expect to take advantage of the payroll tax credits and deferral of the social security payments. We will also have additional depreciation deductions relating to qualified improvement property. We have not completed the full analysis of the impact the CARES Act will have on us.

Alliance Reservations Network Acquisition
On August 7, 2019, we acquired Alliance Reservations Network (“ARN”) for $102 million ($97 million net of cash acquired). ARN provides private-label travel booking technology solutions. This acquisition was made to accelerate growth at RCI by increasing the offerings available to its members and affiliates. We have recognized the assets and liabilities of ARN based on estimates of their acquisition date fair values. ARN is reported within the Vacation Exchange segment.

Foreign currencyDuring the first quarter of 2020 and in anticipation of increased defaults on VOCRs due to the impact of COVID-19, we recorded an additional $225 million provision which negatively impacted revenues and a corresponding $55 million benefit to cost of vacation ownership interests, representing estimated recoveries related to the additional provision. We expect the large increase in unemployment rates as a result of COVID-19 to have a negative impact on our owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables. The net negative impact of the additional provision related to COVID-19 on Adjusted EBITDA was $170 million. The total revenue decrease of $356 million (38.8%) was unfavorably impacted net revenues by $6 million.foreign currency of $4 million (0.4%).

$44271 million of higherdecreased revenues at our Vacation Ownership segment primarily resulting from an increasedue to a decrease in net VOI sales as a result of the aforementioned additional allowance recorded and temporary closure of our resorts and suspension of sales and marketing operations directly related to COVID-19. The decrease in Net VOI sales was partially offset by increases in property management revenues and consumer financing revenues; partially offset bycommission revenues related to Fee-for-Service sales; and
$685 million of decreased revenues at our Vacation Exchange & Rentals segment primarily driven by the significantly negative impact of COVID-19 and a decrease in ancillary revenues,vacation rentals revenue as a changeresult of the sale of the North American vacation rentals business in customer mix, lower other product revenue, and lower inventory levels.October 2019.

Other income, net of other expenses decreased by $3$9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020, compared with the same period last year, primarily due to business interruption insurance claims received in 2018 related to hurricanes Irma and Maria.

Interest expense decreased $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared with the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in the average outstanding revolving credit facility balances.

Our effective tax rates were 27.2% and 146.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of non-cash state tax charges associated with the separation of the hotel business.

Gain on disposal of discontinued businesses, net of income taxes was $432 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing the gain on sale of the European vacation rentals business.

Net revenues increased $43 million (2.2%) for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with the same period last year. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net revenues by $15 million. Excluding foreign currency, the increase in net revenues was primarily the result of:
$71 million of higher revenues at our Vacation Ownership segment primarily resulting from an increase in net VOI sales, consumer financing revenues, and property management revenues; partially offset by
$12 million of decreased revenues at our Exchange & Rentals segment primarily driven by a change in customer mix, lower other product revenue, lower inventory levels and a decrease in ancillary revenues.

Expenses decreased $128 million (7.3%) for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with the same period last year. Foreign currency favorably impacted expenses by $11 million. Excluding the foreign currency impact, the decrease in expenses was primarily the result of:
$126 million decrease in separation costs which were higher in 2018 due to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels;
$36 million decrease in general and administrative expenses driven by lower employee-related costs; and
$14 million decrease in depreciation and amortization primarily due to conveyance of Wyndham Worldwide headquarters to Wyndham Hotels at Spin-off and designation of the North American vacation rentals business as held-for-sale; partially offset by
$31 million increase in marketing costs driven by our Vacation Ownership segment due to our emphasis on adding new owners and an increase in licensing fees for the use of the Wyndham tradename.

Other income, net of other expenses increased by $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with the same period last year, primarily due to gain on sale of a building and higher equity earnings at our Exchange & Rentals segment, partially offset by higher business interruption insurance claims received in 2018 related to hurricanes Irma and Maria in the previous year.

Interest expense decreased $9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in the average outstanding revolving credit facility balances.

Our effective tax rates were 27.1% and 68.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of non-cash tax charges from certain internal restructurings associated with the sale of the European vacation rentals business and non-cash state tax charges associated with the separation of the hotel business during 2018; partially offset by excess tax benefits in relation to stock based compensation in 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, there was a loss from operations of discontinued businesses, net of income taxes of $49 million associated with the completion of the hotel spin-off and the sale of the European vacation rentals business.

Liquidity and capital resources
Currently,The global spread of COVID-19 has significantly impacted the travel industry, our financing needs are supported by cash generated fromcompany, our customers, and our employees. In response to COVID-19, we temporarily closed our resorts in mid-March and suspended our sales and marketing operations. As a result, we significantly reduced our workforce and furloughed thousands of employees. These actions have had, and continue to have, an impact on our operations and borrowings underwhich could impact our revolving credit facility as well as issuance of secured debt. In addition,liquidity in the future. However, we use our bank conduit facility and non-recourse debt borrowings to finance our vacation ownership contract receivables. We believe that our current net cash from operations, cash and cash equivalents access to our revolving credit facilities, our bank conduit facilityon hand, and continued access to the debt markets provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our ongoing cash needs.needs for the near future.

We plan to continue to use our conduit facilities and non-recourse debt borrowings to finance VOCRs. Access to public asset-backed security funding has slowed as COVID-19 negatively impacted the capital markets in the first quarter. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, we successfully closed on a $325 million private securitization financing. While this transaction was at a higher cost compared to transactions we have completed in the past, it was favorable to similar transactions completed recently in the public market, and more importantly, provides reinforcement that we expect to maintain adequate liquidity. The impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets may have an impact on the availability of this type of funding in the near term and terms for hospitality/travel-related companies may command a higher interest rate.

Capital Deployment
We focus on optimizing cash flow and seek to deploydeploying capital for the highest possible returns. Ultimately, our business objective is to grow our business while transforming ouroptimizing cash flow and earnings profile by managing our cash streams to derive a greater proportion of Adjusted EBITDA from our Fee-for-Service businesses.EBITDA. We intend to continue to invest in select capital and technological improvements across our business. We may also seek to acquire additional property management contracts and exclusive agreements for vacation rental properties on a strategic and selective basis as well asstrategically grow the business through merger and acquisition activities. In addition,Finally, over the long term we intend to continue to return cashvalue to shareholders through the repurchase of common stock and payment of dividends.dividends, although our share repurchase program was suspended in March 2020 as a result of the impact of COVID-19. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, the Company's Board of Directors (“Board”) reaffirmed its dividend policy and intends to declare the second quarter cash dividend of $0.50 per share in mid-May. All future declarations of quarterly cash dividends are subject to final approval by the Board.

During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we spent $61.6$46 million on vacation ownership development projects (inventory). We believe that our vacation ownership business currently has adequate finished inventory on our balance sheet to support vacation ownership sales for at least the next year. During 2019,2020, we anticipate spending between $220$180 million and $250$200 million on vacation ownership development projects.projects, a reduction of approximately $65 million due to the impact of COVID-19 on our industry and business. The average inventory spend on vacation ownership development projects for the four-year period 2020 through 2023 is expected to be approximately $250$185 million annually. After factoring in the anticipated additional average annual spending, weWe expect to have adequate inventory to support vacation ownership sales through at least the next four to five years.

During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we spent $50$21 million on capital expenditures primarily for information technology enhancementenhancements and sales center improvement projects. During 2019,2020, we anticipate spending between $110$85 million and $120$90 million on capital expenditures.expenditures, a reduction of approximately $35 million due to the impact of COVID-19, deferring several projects beyond 2020.

In connection with our focus on optimizing cash flow, we are continuing our asset-light efforts in vacation ownership by seeking opportunities with financial partners whereby they make strategic investments to develop assets on our behalf. We refer to this as Just-in-Time. The partner may invest in new ground-up development projects or purchase from us, for cash, existing in-process inventory which currently resides on our balance sheet. The partner will complete the development of the project and we may purchase finished inventory at a future date as needed or as obligated under the agreement.

We expect that the majority of the expenditures that will be required to pursue our capital spending programs, strategic investments and vacation ownership development projects will be financed with cash flow generated through operations.operations and cash and cash equivalents. Additional expenditures are expected to be financed with general corporate borrowings, including through the use of available capacity under our revolving credit facility.borrowings.

Stock Repurchase Program
On August 20, 2007, our Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized a stock repurchase program that enables us to purchase our common stock. The Board has since increased the capacity of the program eight times, most recently in October 2017 by $1.0 billion, bringing the total authorization under the current program to $6.0 billion. Proceeds received from stock option exercises have increased repurchase capacity by $78 million since the inception of this program.

Under our current stock repurchase program, we repurchased 3.03.1 million shares at an average price of $42.31$40.79 for a cost of $125 million during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. We have suspended share repurchase activity due to uncertainty associated with COVID-19.

of future dividends to holders of our common stock are at the discretion of our Board and depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our business, covenants associated with certain debt obligations, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other factors that our Board deems relevant. There is no assurance that a payment of a dividend will occur in the future.

Financial Obligations
Debt Covenants
The revolving credit facilities and term loan B are subject to covenants including the maintenance of specific financial ratios as defined in the credit agreement. The financial ratio covenants consist of a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0 as of the measurement date and a maximum first lien leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25 to 1.0 as of the measurement date. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) by consolidated interest expense (as defined in the credit agreement), both as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our interest coverage ratio was 6.56.8 to 1.0. The first lien leverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated first lien debt (as defined in the credit agreement) as of the measurement date by consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our first lien leverage ratio was 2.9 to 1.0. These ratios do not include interest expense or indebtedness related to any qualified securitization financing (as defined in the credit agreement). As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants described above.

The global spread of COVID-19 has significantly impacted the travel industry, our company, our customers, and our employees. In response to COVID-19, we temporarily closed our resorts in mid-March and suspended our sales and marketing operations. As a result, we significantly reduced our workforce and furloughed thousands of employees. These actions have had, and may continue to have, a significant negative impact on our operations which could impact our liquidity in the future. The continued impact of COVID-19 on our industry and business will lead to a higher first lien leverage ratio in the future. Under the credit agreement, if this ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.0, the interest rate on revolver borrowings would increase 25 basis points, and we would be subject to higher fees associated with our letters of credit.

Each of our non-recourse, securitized term notes, and the bank conduit facilities contain various triggers relating to the performance of the applicable loan pools. If the vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs pool that collateralizes one of our securitization notes fails to perform within the parameters established by the contractual triggers (such as higher default or delinquency rates), there are provisions pursuant to which the cash flows for that pool will be maintained in the securitization as extra collateral for the note holders or applied to accelerate the repayment of outstanding principal to the note holders. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, all of our securitized loan pools were in compliance with applicable contractual triggers.

LIQUIDITY
The CompanyOur vacation ownership business finances certain of its vacation ownership contract receivablesVOCRs through (i) an asset-backed bank conduit facilityfacilities and (ii) term asset-backed securitizations, all of which are non-recourse to the Companyus with respect to principal and interest.

We believe that our $800 millionhave a USD bank conduit facility with an extended term through August 2021, and an AUD/NZD bank conduit facility, with a term through September 2021, amounting to a combined with our ability to issue term asset-backed securities, should provide sufficient liquidity for our expected sales pace, and we expect to have available liquidity to finance the salecapacity of VOIs.$985 million. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we had $195$283 million of availability under thisthese asset-backed bank conduit facility. Any disruptionfacilities.

Our liquidity position may also be negatively affected by unfavorable conditions in the capital markets in which we operate or if our VOCRs portfolios do not meet specified portfolio credit parameters. Our liquidity, as it relates to our VOCRs securitization program, could be adversely affected if we were to fail to renew or replace our conduit facilities on their expiration dates, or if a particular receivables pool were to fail to meet certain ratios, which could occur in certain instances if the default rates or other credit metrics of the underlying VOCRs deteriorate. Our ability to sell securities backed by our VOCRs depends on the continued ability and willingness of capital market participants to invest in such securities. Access to public asset-backed security funding has slowed as COVID-19 negatively impacted the capital markets in the first quarter. Subsequent to the asset-backed securities market could adversely impact our future abilityend of the first quarter, we successfully closed on a $325 million private securitization financing. While this transaction was at a higher cost compared to obtain asset-backed financings.transactions we have completed in the past, it was favorable to similar transactions

completed recently in the public market, and more importantly, provides reinforcement that we expect to maintain adequate liquidity.

We primarily utilize surety bonds atin our vacation ownership business for sales and development transactions in order to meet regulatory requirements of certain states. In the ordinary course of our business, we have assembled commitments from 1412 surety providers in the amount of $2.4$2.31 billion as of March 31, 2020, of which we had $370$284 million outstanding as of June 30, 2019.is outstanding. The availability, terms and conditions and pricing of such bonding capacity are dependent on, among other things, continued financial strength and stability of the insurance company affiliates providing the bonding capacity, general availability of such capacity and our corporate credit rating. If the bonding capacity is unavailable or, alternatively, if the terms and conditions and pricing of suchthe bonding capacity are unacceptable to us, our vacation ownership business could be negatively impacted.

Our liquidity position may also be negatively affected by unfavorable conditions in the capital markets in which we operate or if our vacation ownership contract receivables portfolios do not meet specified portfolio credit parameters. Our liquidity, as it relates to our vacation ownership contract receivables securitization program, could be adversely affected if we were to fail to renew or replace our conduit facility on its expiration date, or if a particular receivables pool were to fail to meet certain ratios, which could occur in certain instances if the default rates or other credit metrics of the underlying vacation ownership contract receivables deteriorate. Our ability to sell securities backed by our vacation ownership contract receivables depends on the continued ability and willingness of capital market participants to invest in such securities.

Our secured debt is rated Ba2 with a “stable outlook” by Moody’s Investors Service, BB- with a “positive“negative outlook” by Standard and Poor’s, and BB+ with a “stable outlook” by Fitch Rating Agency.

SEASONALITY
We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net revenues and net income from sales of VOIs and vacation exchange fees and commission income earned from renting vacation properties.fees. Revenues from sales of VOIs are generally higher in the third quarter than in other quarters due to increased leisure travel. Revenues from vacation exchange fees are generally highest in the first quarter, which is generally when members of our vacation exchange business book their vacations for the year. Revenues from vacation rentals are generally highest in the third quarter, when vacation arrivals are highest. Our seasonality could be impacted by COVID-19.

The seasonality of our business may cause fluctuations in our quarterly operating results. As we expand into new markets and geographical locations, we may experience increased or different seasonality dynamics that create fluctuations in operating results different from the fluctuations we have experienced in the past.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Company iswe are involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries related to the Company’sour business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition. For discussion of these matters along with the Company’sour guarantees and indemnifications see Note 16—17—Commitments and Contingencies to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In presenting our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Several of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events. However, events that are outside of our

47

Table of Contents


control cannot be predicted and, as such, they cannot be contemplated in evaluating such estimates and assumptions. If there is a significant unfavorable change to current conditions, it could result in a material impact to our consolidated results of operations, financial position and liquidity. We believe that the estimates and assumptions we used when preparing our financial statements were the most appropriate at that time. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on February 26, 20192020, which includes a description of our critical accounting policies that involve subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results. Below we include updates that have occurred since the filing of our most recent 10-K.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. With regard to the goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets recorded in connection with business combinations, we annually (during the fourth quarter of each year subsequent to completing our annual forecasting process), or more frequently if circumstances indicate that the value of goodwill may be impaired, review the reporting units’ carrying values as required by the guidance for goodwill and other intangible assets. This is done either by performing a qualitative assessment or a quantitative assessment, with an impairment being recognized only if a reporting unit’s fair value is less than carrying value. In any given year we can elect to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is in excess of its carrying value. If it is not more likely than not that the fair value is in excess of the carrying value, or we elect to bypass the qualitative assessment, we would utilize the quantitative assessment. The qualitative factors evaluated include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, our historical share price as well as other industry-specific considerations. Given the impact of COVID-19 on our industry and business, we performed a qualitative assessment for impairment on each reporting unit’s goodwill as of March 31, 2020. Based on the results of these qualitative assessments we determined that it is more likely than not that the goodwill is not impaired at our vacation exchange, ARN, or vacation ownership reporting units. To the extent estimated market-based valuation multiples and/or discounted cash flows are revised downward, as a result of continued COVID-19 impacts or other events, we may be required to write-down all or a portion of goodwill, which would adversely impact earnings.

We also determine whether the carrying value of other indefinite-lived intangible assets is impaired on an annual basis or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. Application of the other indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment test requires judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine fair value. The fair value of each other indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology. This analysis requires significant judgments, including anticipated market conditions, operating expense trends, estimation of future cash flows, which are dependent on internal forecasts, and estimation of long-term rate of growth. The estimates used to calculate the fair value of other indefinite-lived intangible assets change from year to year based on operating results and market conditions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and the other indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment.

We also evaluate the recoverability of our other long-lived assets, including property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred, pursuant to guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. Property and equipment is evaluated separately within

50

Table of Contents


each segment. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value.

In addition to the goodwill qualitative assessment mentioned above, as a result of the impacts of COVID-19 we also performed an interim impairment analysis on our property and equipment, inventory, other intangible assets and certain other assets as of March 31, 2020. As a result of this analysis, we identified $6 million of impairments at our Vacation Ownership segment related to prepaid development costs and undeveloped land, and a $4 million impairment of the Love Home Swap tradename at our Vacation Exchange segment. These impairments are included within the Asset impairments line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income.

In addition to the critical accounting policies discussed within our Annual Report on Form 10-K,above, as part of our adoption of the new LeasesCredit Losses accounting standard, we made an accounting policy election to keep leases withpresent accrued interest receivable included within Trade receivables, net separate from our Vacation ownership contract receivables, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and elected not to estimate an initial termallowance for credit losses on the accrued interest receivable balance. Once a contract is 91 days past due, we cease accruing interest and reverse all accrued interest recognized to date against interest income included within Consumer financing revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of 12 months or(Loss)/Income included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We resume accruing interest for contracts which we had previously ceased accruing interest once the contract is less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the income statement. Additionally, when available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.than 91 days past due.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.
We assess our market risks based on changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the potential impact in earnings, fair values and cash flows based on a hypothetical 10% change (increase and decrease) in interest and foreign currency exchange rates. We used June 30, 2019March 31, 2020, market rates to perform a sensitivity analysis separately for each of our market risk exposures. The estimates assume instantaneous, parallel shifts in interest rate yield curves and exchange rates. We have determined, through such analyses, that a hypothetical 10% change in the interest rates would have resulted in an approximate $2 million increase or decrease in annual consumer financing interest expense. We have determined that a hypothetical 10% change in the foreign currency exchange rates would have resulted in an approximate increase or decrease to the fair value of our outstanding forward foreign currency exchange contracts of less than $1$5 million, which would generally be offset by an opposite effect on the underlying exposure being economically hedged. As such, we believe that a 10% change in interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material effect on our prices, earnings, fair values, and cash flows.

Our variable rate borrowings, which include our term loan, secured notes synthetically converted to variable rate debt via interest rate swaps, banknon-recourse conduit facilityfacilities and revolving credit facility, expose us to risks caused by fluctuations in the applicable interest rates. The total outstanding balance of such variable rate borrowings at June 30, 2019March 31, 2020, was approximately $605$702 million in non-recourse vacation ownership debt and $713 million$1.28 billion in corporate debt. A 100 basis point change in the underlying interest rates would result in an approximate $6a $7 million increase or decrease in annual consumer financing interest expense and an approximate $7a $13 million increase or decrease in our annual debt interest expense.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a)
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were designed and functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b)
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we utilized the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

As a result of COVID-19, most of our employees began working remotely in late March 2020. We have not identified any material changes in our disclosure controls and procedures, nor our internal control over financial reporting as a result of this change. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation to minimize the impact on the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. See Note 16—17—Commitments and Contingencies to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business and Note 22—25—Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our obligations regarding Cendant contingent litigation, matters related to Wyndham Hotels and& Resorts, Inc., matters related to the European vacation rentals business, and the North American vacation rentals business. Both notes are included in Part 1I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The discussion of our business and operations should be read together with the risk factors contained in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018,2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies or prospects in a material and adverse manner. As of June 30, 2019, thereMarch 31, 2020, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.2019, except as noted below and except to the extent factual information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such risk factors.

The global outbreak of COVID-19 and the recent temporary closure of all of our resorts and sales centers have significantly negatively affected our operations and continued closure and measures that limit our ability to operate may significantly negatively affect our future business, financial condition and results of operations.
The global outbreak of novel coronavirus global pandemic (“COVID-19”) has been declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization, a national emergency by the United States federal government and by other countries and a state of emergency by all states in the United States. This outbreak has led, and may continue to lead, to disruptions in the global economy. Tourism and travel-related industries face significant disruption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the United States federal government and its individual states have taken, and may continue to take, actions to curb the spread of COVID-19, including encouraging "social distancing" and quarantines, mandating certain business closures, limiting the number of individuals that may gather in one location and implementing travel restrictions. COVID-19 has caused, and may continue to cause, extreme volatility in the equity markets and the capital markets, generally.
Our business has been significantly negatively affected by COVID-19. On March 25, 2020, we announced the temporary closure of most of our resorts to comply with federal, state and local government orders and we have since closed all our resorts and sales centers and laid off or furloughed thousands of our employees. The duration of the impact of COVID-19 and our resort and sales centers closures and our ability to implement our growth strategy is uncertain, as the full impact and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve. Our temporary resort and sales center closures have led to significant declines in our vacation ownership interest (VOI) sales during this closure period. We have also experienced an increase in cancellations and a decrease in March bookings for our vacation exchange business. Continued closure of our resorts and sales centers is expected to result in additional COVID-19 charges including idle pay for certain sales and marketing employees and potential further impairment of assets. As a result, management expects the current and continued resort and sales center closures, increased cancellations, reduced bookings and ongoing length and severity of the economic downturn caused by COVID-19, and potential reluctance of customers to travel even after all government restrictions and recommendations are no longer in effect, or to spend on discretionary items such as vacation, will have a significantly negative impact on our future business, financial condition and results of operations.
The actions we have taken to reduce operating costs and improve efficiency, including the layoff and furloughing of a substantial number of our employees and further changes we may make in the future to reduce costs, may cause us to experience operational challenges, including as a result of furloughed employees not returning to employment because they have obtained alternative employment or otherwise, and negatively impact our ability to attract and retain associates, our reputation and market share.
In addition, increases in unemployment due to COVID-19 and related social distancing and quarantine orders and travel restrictions may negatively impact our VOI owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we increased our loan loss allowance by $225 million, partially offset by $55 million of inventory recoveries; as a result of this increase in unemployment. If the increase in unemployment continues or economic conditions do not improve

53


following the termination of social distancing and quarantine orders and travel restriction, our revenues will continue to be negatively impacted.

Further, the effects of COVID-19 may also negatively affect our ability to comply with existing covenants under our debt agreements, increase our cost of capital or make additional capital more difficult to obtain or available only on terms less favorable to us, if at all. Our revolving credit facilities and term loan B require us to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 2.50 to 1.00 as of the measurement date and a maximum first lien leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25 to 1.00 as of the measurement date. The continued impact of COVID-19 on our industry and business may impact our ability to remain in compliance with these debt covenants in the future. If we fail to comply with our debt covenants, the lenders under our revolving credit facilities and term loan B, subject to our right to cure, would have the right to terminate and declare the outstanding loans to be immediately due and payable, and any such default could trigger a cross-default, acceleration or other consequences under other indebtedness or financial instruments to which we are a party. Any continued impact of COVID-19 on our industry and business will also lead to a higher first lien leverage ratio in the future. If this ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.0, the interest rate on revolver borrowings will increase 25 basis points, and the Company would be subject to higher fees associated with its letters of credit. COVID-19 has also impacted the public asset-backed securities market, and thus impacted our ability to issue asset-backed securities in the first quarter. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, we successfully closed on a $325 million private securitization financing at a higher cost compared to transactions we have completed in the past. The impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets may have an impact on the availability of this type of funding in the near term and terms for hospitality/travel-related companies may command a higher interest rate.The ongoing effects of COVID-19 on our operations could have a significant negative impact on our financial results and liquidity, and such negative impact could continue well beyond the containment of such outbreak. As of March 31, 2020, we had $283 million of availability under our asset-backed conduit facilities. Any further disruption to the asset-backed securities market could continue to negatively impact our ability to obtain asset-backed financings. Our liquidity, as it relates to our vacation ownership contract receivables (“VOCRs”) securitization program, could be adversely affected if we were to fail to renew or replace our conduit facilities on their expiration dates, or if a particular receivables pool were to fail to meet certain ratios, which could occur in certain instances if the default rates or other credit metrics of the underlying VOCRs deteriorate as a result of the COVID-19 crisis or otherwise. Our ability to sell securities backed by our VOCRs depends on the continued ability and willingness of capital market participants to invest in such securities, which may be negatively affected by COVID-19 and its impact on economic conditions and the credit of our VOCRs pools.

We utilize surety bonds in our vacation ownership business for sales and development transactions in order to meet regulatory requirements of certain states. The availability, terms and conditions and pricing of bonding capacity are dependent on, among other things, continued financial strength and stability of the insurance company affiliates providing the bonding capacity, general availability of such capacity and our corporate credit rating. As a result of COVID-19, we are anticipating a reduction in commitments from our surety providers. Any such reduction in commitments or reduced availability of bonding capacity, or a negative change to the terms and conditions and pricing of the bonding capacity may negatively impact our vacation ownership business.

The volatile conditions stemming from COVID-19, as well as reactions to future pandemics or resurgences of COVID-19, could also precipitate or aggravate the other risk factors that we identify in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which in turn could significantly negatively affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations (including revenues and profitability) and/or stock price. Further, COVID-19 may affect our operating and financial results in a manner that is not presently known to us or that we currently do not consider to present significant risks to our operations.

On August 20, 2007, our Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized a stock repurchase program that enables us to purchase our common stock. The Board has since increased the capacity of the program eight times, most recently on October 23, 2017, for $1.0 billion, bringing the total authorization under the current program to $6.0 billion. Under our current and prior stock repurchase plans, the total authorization is $6.8 billion. In March 2020, we announced that we have suspended our share repurchase activity due to the uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
