NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1: Organization and Basis of Presentation

Our Spin-off from Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc.

On January 3, 2017, the previously announced spin-off was completed by way of a pro rata distribution of Business

Hilton Grand Vacations Inc.’s (“Hilton Grand Vacations,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “HGV” or the “Company”) common stock to Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (“Hilton”) stockholders. Each Hilton stockholder received one share of our common stock for every ten shares of Hilton common stock. As a result of the spin-off, we became a separate publicly-traded company on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “HGV,” and Hilton did not retain any ownership interest in our company.

In connection with the completion of the spin-off, we entered into agreements with Hilton (who at the time was a related party) and other third parties, including licenses to use the Hilton brand. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the effect of these agreements. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we incurred $39 million and $46 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we incurred $137 million and $150 million, respectively, in costs relating to the agreements entered with Hilton. See Key Agreements Related to the Spin-Off section in Part I - Item 1. Business of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further information.

Prior to the spin-off, Hilton maintained a share-based compensation plan for the benefit of its officers, directors and employees which was presented as a component of Net transfers (to) from Parent, a financing activity, on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Subsequent to the spin-off, share-based compensation expense is presented as a component of operating activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Our Business

Hilton Grand Vacations is a global timeshare company engaged in developing, marketing, selling, managing and managingoperating timeshare resorts, timeshare plans and ancillary reservation services, primarily under the Hilton Grand Vacations brand. Our operations primarily consist of:of selling vacation ownership intervals (“VOIs”and vacation ownership interests (collectively, “VOIs” or “VOI”) for usourselves and third parties; operating resorts; financing and servicing loans provided to consumers for their VOI purchases; operating resorts and timeshare purchases;plans; and managing our points-based Hilton Grand Vacations Club and Hilton Club exchange program (the “Club”)programs and Diamond points-based multi-resort timeshare clubs and exchange programs. During 2022, we began offering a new club membership called HGV Max across certain of our sales centers. For any customer who purchases a VOI, this membership provides the ability to use points across all properties within our network. The membership provides new destinations for existing club owners and broader vacation opportunities for new buyers. Our club offerings, including HGV Max, are collectively referred to as “Clubs”.

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, we had 48 timeshareover 150 properties comprised of 8,101 units, located in the United States (“U.S.”), Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean, Canada and Europe.

balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Although we believe the disclosures made are adequate to prevent information presented from being misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016,2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2017.

The determination of a controlling financial interest is based upon the terms of the governing agreements of the respective entities, including the evaluation of rights held by other interests. If the entity is considered to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”), we determine whether we are the primary beneficiary, and then consolidate those VIEs for which we have determined we are the primary beneficiary. If the entity in which we hold an interest does not meet the definition of a VIE, we evaluate whether we have a controlling financial interest through our voting interests in the entity. We consolidate entities when we own more than 50% of the voting shares of a company or otherwise have a controlling financial interest.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and, accordingly, ultimate results could differ from those estimates. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2023, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2022-02 (“ASU 2022-02”), Financial Instruments— Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. ASU 2022-02 provides, under Issue 2 - Vintage Disclosures, that an entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. For financing receivables, the vintage disclosure is to present the amortized cost basis by credit quality indicator and class of financing receivable for the year of origination. The accompanying unauditedvintage disclosures are to be applied prospectively. The impact of adoption of ASU 2022-02 was in disclosure only and did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements,statements.

Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional and is only contingent on the passage of the interim periods.

Contract liabilities include payments received or due in advance of the expected redemption of expiredsatisfying our performance obligations. Such contract liabilities include advance deposits received on prepaid discounted vacation packages (“packages”) on an ongoing basis. We only reducefor future stays at our resorts, deferred revenues related to sales of VOIs of projects under construction, Club activation fees and annual dues and the liability for expired packages when a package isBonus Points awarded to our customers for purchase of VOIs at our properties or properties under our fee-for-service arrangements that may be redeemed or the likelihood of redemption is remote. This review considers factors such as historical experience, current business practices for pursuing individuals to redeem


expired packages and the sufficiency and reliability of data available following a change in those redemption business practices. Previously, we concluded that redemption of an expired package was remote once a package had been expired for six months and therefore retained the liability until six months after expiration. During the review in the second quarter of 2017, we determined we then had sufficiently reliable updated information under current business practices to revise our estimate of expired packages that we expect to redeem. As a result during the second quarter of 2017, we changed our accounting estimate for expected redemptions of expired packages to relieve a portion of the remaining liability post expiration and recorded an $11 million reduction to the Advanced Deposits liability, with corresponding increases to Sales, marketing, brandfuture, deferred maintenance fees and other fees revenuedeferred revenue.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

We account for investments in unconsolidated affiliates under the equity method of accounting when we exercise significant influence, but do not maintain a controlling financial interest over the affiliates. We evaluate our investments in affiliates for impairment when there are indicators that the fair value of our investment may be less than our carrying value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Adopted Accounting Standards

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09 includes provisions intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting and presentation of share-based payments. These provisions include the recognition of the income tax effects of awards in the consolidated statement of operations when the awards vest or are settled, permitting an employer to withhold shares in an amount up to the employee’s maximum individual tax rate without resulting in liability classification of the award, permitting entities to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur, and changes to the classification of tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments and cash payments made to taxing authorities on the employee’s behalf on the statement of cash flows. This ASU 2016-09 was effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted ASU 2016-09 retrospectively as of January 1, 2017 and have applied to all periods herein with no material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, (“ASU 2016-18”) Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU is intended to provide guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and reduce the diversity in practice. This ASU requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts on the statement of cash flows. We elected, as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2016-18 retrospectively as of January 1, 2017 and have applied it to all periods presented herein. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flowsbalance sheets. This liability is for incentives from VOI sales and sales and marketing expenses in conjunction with our fee-for-service arrangements.

Revenue earned for the three months ended March 31, 2023, that was to include restricted cash balancesincluded in the beginning and end of period balances of cash and cash equivalent and restricted cash. The change in restricted cashcontract liabilities balance at December 31, 2022 was previously disclosed in operating activities and financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01 (“ASU 2017-01”), Business Combinations (Topic 804): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This ASU clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidanceapproximately $56 million.

Contract assets relate to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions shouldincentive fees that can be accountedearned for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. We elected, as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2017-01 prospectively as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), and requires entities to recognize revenue


in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods orservices to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled inexchange for those goods or services. Subsequent to ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several related ASUs amending the original ASU.

The provisions of this ASU are to be applied retrospectively or using a modified retrospective approach for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.   A determination as to whether we will apply the retrospective or modified retrospective adoption method will be made once our quantitative evaluation is complete and we commence quantifying the expected impacts later this year.

   We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will havemeeting certain targets on our consolidated financial statements by analyzing both transactional and analytical data for each of our revenue streams. The following is a status of our evaluation of impacts by significant revenue stream:

Sales of VOIs, net – We expect to recognize Sales of VOI, net when control of the VOI passes to the customer, which generally occurs shortly after the expiration of the purchaser’s period to cancel for a refund. We do not expect that this timing change will have a material impact on our accounting for Sales of VOIs, net. We expect our accounting for uncollectible timeshare financing receivables to remain unchanged.

We are still evaluating the impact on revenue recognition for sales of VOIs that areat properties under construction.

Sales, marketing, brandour fee-for-service arrangements; however, our right to consideration is conditional upon completing the requirements of the annual incentive fee period. There were no contract assets as of March 31, 2023 and other fees - We expect changes to the gross versus net presentation$9 million contract assets as of certain sales incentives as sales incentives provided where we are acting as the agent (e.g., Hilton Honors) will be recognized on a net basis in Sales, marketing, brand and other fees. We expect this classification change to reduce Sales, marketing, brand and other fees and the related expenses by $29.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.

2022.

We plan

Transaction Price Allocated to recognize the expected breakageRemaining Performance Obligations
Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contract revenue that has not yet been recognized. Our contracts with remaining performance obligations primarily include (i) sales of VOIs under construction, (ii) Club activation fees paid at closing of a VOI purchase, (iii) customers’ advanced deposits on prepaid discounted vacation packages (“packages”) as revenue proportionately when our customers redeem their packages rather than when the likelihood of redemption is remote as we are entitled to the breakage amount. We are currentlyand (iv) Bonus Points that may be redeemed in the processfuture.

We expect immaterial impacts from changes to (i) timing of service fees charged on packages and (ii) classification of contract acquisition costs paid to fee-for-service customers.

We will continue to evaluate and disclose expected impacts that ASU 2014-09 will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as more information becomes available.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 (“ASU 2016-15”), Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The provisions of this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017; early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03 (“ASU 2017-03”), Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). ASU 2017-03 requires registrants to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. The SEC staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies that the registrant expects to apply, if


determined, and a comparison to the registrant’s current accounting policies. In addition, a registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. ASU 2017-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

On August 2, 2021, (the “Acquisition Date”), we acquired Dakota Holdings, Inc., the parent of Diamond Resorts International (“Diamond” or “Legacy-Diamond”) (the “Diamond Acquisition”). Our originated portfolio represents timeshare financing receivables that existed both prior to and following the Acquisition Date, excluding Legacy-Diamond (“Legacy-HGV”) and timeshare financing receivables originated by Legacy-Diamond subsequent to the Acquisition Date. Our acquired portfolio includes all timeshare financing receivables acquired from Legacy-Diamond as of the Acquisition Date.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had timeshare financing receivables with a carrying value of $180 million and $105 million, respectively, securing the Timeshare Facility.
We record an estimate of variable consideration for estimated defaults as a reduction of revenue from VOI sales at the time revenue is recognized on a VOI sale. We record the difference between the timeshare financing receivable and the variable consideration included in the transaction price for the sale of the related VOI as an allowance for financing receivables and record the receivable net of the allowance. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recorded an adjustment to our estimate of variable consideration of $30 million and $31 million, respectively.
We recognize interest income on our timeshare financing receivables as earned. As of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had interest receivable outstanding of $13 million on our originated timeshare financing receivables. As of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had interest receivable outstanding of $4 million on our acquired timeshare financing receivables. Interest receivable is included in Other Assets within our condensed

consolidated balance sheets. The interest rate charged on the notes correlates to the risk profile of the borrowercustomer at the time of purchase and the percentage of the purchase that is financed, among other factors. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, our originated timeshare financing receivables had interest rates ranging from 5.3 percent1.5% to 20.5 percent,25.8%, a weighted averageweighted-average interest rate of 12.1 percent,14.5%, a weighted averageweighted-average remaining term of 7.78.2 years and maturities through 2028.

Our acquired timeshare financing receivables securingwere deemed to be purchased credit deteriorated financial assets. These notes receivable were initially recognized at their purchase price, represented by the Timeshare Facility.

The difference over which par value of the acquired purchased credit deteriorated assets exceeds the purchase price plus the initial allowance for financing receivablesreceivable losses is reflected as earned. We record an estimate of uncollectibilitya non-credit premium and is amortized as a reduction to interest income under the effective interest method.
The fair value of revenue from VOI sales at the time revenue is recognized on a VOI sale.

In March 2017, we completed a securitization of approximately $357 million of gross timeshare financing receivables and issued approximately $291 million of 2.66 percent notes and approximately $59 million of 2.96 percent notes, which have a stated maturity date of December 2028. The securitization transactions did not qualify as sales and, accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized. The transaction is considered a secured borrowing; therefore, the proceeds from the transaction are presented as non-recourse debt (collectively, the “Securitized Debt”). See Note 8: Debt & Non-recourse debt for further discussion.


Ourour acquired timeshare financing receivables as of September 30, 2017the Acquisition Date was determined using a discounted cash flow method, which calculated a present value of expected future risk-adjusted cash flows over the remaining term of the respective timeshare financing receivables. Consequently, the fair value of the acquired timeshare financing receivables recorded on our consolidated balance sheet as of the Acquisition Date included an estimate of expected financing receivable losses which became the historical cost basis for that portfolio going forward.

The allowance for financing receivable losses for our acquired timeshare financing receivables is remeasured at each period end and takes into consideration an estimated measure of anticipated defaults and early repayments. We consider historical Legacy-Diamond timeshare financing receivables performance and the current economic environment in the re-measurement of the allowance for financing receivable losses for our acquired timeshare financing receivables. Subsequent changes to the allowance for financing receivable losses are recorded as additions to or reversals to the provision.
Our gross acquired timeshare financing receivables as of March 31, 2023 mature as follows:

Credit Quality of Timeshare Financing Receivables
Legacy-HGV Timeshare Financing Receivables
We evaluate this portfolio collectively for purposes of estimating variable consideration, since we hold a large group of homogeneous timeshare financing receivables which are individually immaterial. We monitor the credit qualitycollectability of our receivables on an ongoing basis. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty or groups of counterparties. We use a technique referred to as static pool analysis as the basis for estimating expected defaults and determining our loan loss reserve requirementsallowance for financing receivables losses on our timeshare financing receivables. For the static pool analysis, we use certain key dimensions to stratify our portfolio, including FICO scores, equity percentage at the time of sale and certain other factors. The adequacy of the related allowance is determined by management through analysis of several factors, such as current economic conditions and industry trends, as well as the specific risk characteristics of the portfolio including assumed default rates, aging and historical write-offs of these receivables. The allowance is maintained at a level deemed adequate by management based on a periodic analysis of the mortgage portfolio.

(1)Timeshare financing receivables without a FICO score are primarily related to foreign borrowers.

We apply payments we receive for loans, including those in non-accrual status, to amounts due in the following order: servicing fees; interest; principal; and late charges. Once a loan is 91 days past due, we cease accruing interest and reverse the accrued interest recognized up to that point. We resume interest accrual for loans for which we had previously ceased accruing interest once the loan is less than 91 days past due. We fully reserve for a timeshare financing receivable in the month following the date that the loan is 121 days past due and, subsequently, we write off the uncollectible note against the reserve once the foreclosure process is complete and we receive the deed for the foreclosed unit.

As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2016,2022, we had ceased accruing interest on timeshare financing receivables with an aggregate principal balance of $47$77 million and $38$76 million, respectively.

Note 6:7: Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

As of September 30, 2017 and DecemberMarch 31, 2016,2023, we consolidated three and two variable interest9 VIEs. The activities of these entities (“VIEs”), respectively, that issued Securitized Debt, backed by pledged assets consistingare limited primarily of a pool ofto purchasing qualifying non-recourse timeshare financing receivables whichfrom us and issuing debt securities and/or borrowing under a debt facility to facilitate such purchases. The timeshare financing receivables held by these entities are not available to our creditors and are not our legal assets, nor is without recoursethe debt that is securitized through these entities a legal liability to us.
We have determined that we are the primary beneficiaries of these VIEs as we have the power to direct the activities that most


significantly affect their economic performance. We are also the servicer of these timeshare financing receivables and we are required tooften replace or repurchase timeshare financing receivables that are in default at their outstanding principal amounts. Additionally, we have the obligation to absorb their losses and the right to receive benefits that could be significant to them. Only the assets of our VIEs are available to settle the obligations of the respective entities.

Our condensed consolidated balance sheets included the assets and liabilities of these entities, which primarily consisted of the following:

This amount also includes unamortized original issuance discounts of $6 million and $7 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
(3)Amount does not include unamortized deferred financing costs of $4 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, related to our revolving facility which are included in Other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Senior secured credit facilities
As of March 31, 2023, we had $1 million of letters of credit outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $1 million outstanding backed by cash collateral. We were in compliance with all applicable maintenance and financial covenants and ratios as of March 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2023, we have $671 million remaining borrowing capacity under the revolver facility.
We primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy for our variable-rate debt. These interest rate swaps are associated with the remaining available LIBOR based senior secured credit facility. Therefore, as of March 31, 2023, these interest rate swaps convert the LIBOR based variable rate on our Term Loan to average fixed rates of 1.32% per annum with maturities between 2023 and 2028, for the balance on this borrowing up to the notional values of our interest rate swaps. As of March 31, 2023, the notional values of the interest rate swaps under our Term Loan was $705 million. Our interest rate swaps have been designated and qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and recorded at their estimated fair value as an asset in Other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the estimated fair value of our cash flow hedges are $51 million and $63 million, respectively. We characterize payments we make in connection with these derivative instruments as interest expense and a reclassification of accumulated other comprehensive income for presentation purposes. The following table reflects the activity in Accumulated other comprehensive income related to our derivative instruments during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Our estimates of the fair values were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the estimated fair values. The table above excludes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, advance deposits and accrued liabilities, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

The estimated fair values of our originated and acquired timeshare financing receivables were determined using a discounted cash flow model. Our model incorporates default rates, coupon rates, credit quality and loan terms respective to the portfolio based on current market assumptions for similar types of arrangements.

The estimated fair valuesvalue of our Level 2 derivative financial instruments was determined utilizing projected future cash flows discounted based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and market volatility. Refer to Note 10: Debt and Non-recourse Debt above.
The estimated fair value of our Level 1 debt wasand non-recourse debt were based on prices in active debt markets. The estimated fair value of our Level 3 debt and non-recourse debt were as follows:

Non-recourse debt - based on projected future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted rates.

Note 10:12: Income Taxes

At the end of each quarter, we estimate the effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year.

The effective income tax rate is determined by the level and composition of pre-tax income or loss, which is subject to federal, foreign, state and local income taxes. The effective income tax rate for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 and 20162022 was approximately 38 percent19% and 43 percent, respectively, which decreased28%, respectively. The effective tax rate decrease year over year is due to the change in earnings mix of our worldwide income and discrete items in the quarter, primarily unrecognized tax benefits. The difference between our effective tax rate as compared to the U.S. statutory federal tax rate of 21% is primarily due to a decreasethe benefit of discrete items including share-based compensation and unrecognized tax benefits in cumulative installment sale interest liability.

The Company was a party to several intercompany asset transfers with Hilton prior to the spin-off. As required under U.S. tax regulations,quarter, which offset the gain resulting from the intercompany transferimpact of these assets should be deferredstate and no deferred tax asset or liability should be recognized until a recognition event occurs. On January 3, 2017, Hilton executed a tax-free spin-off of the Company, which met the requirement of a recognition event. On the spin-off date, for the assets transferred, we recognized a stepped up tax basis, re-measured the asset by applying applicable tax rate changes and evaluated the realizability of the asset. This resulted in a reduction to our net deferred tax liability and an increase in our Additional paid-in capital of $9 million on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017.

Service RSUs

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, we issued 530,674491,426 Service RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $29.15, which generally vest 25 percent in the first year, 25 percent in the second year and 50 percent in the third year from the date of grant.

Options

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we issued 669,658 options with a grant date fair value of $8.66 and$49.14, which generally vest in equal annual installments over three years from the date of grant.

Due to limited trading history for Hilton Grand Vacations’ common stock, we did not have sufficient information available on which to base a reasonable and supportable estimate of the expected volatility of our share price. As a result, we used a weighted-average of the implied volatility and the average historical volatility of our peer group over a time period consistent with its expected term assumption. Our peer group was determined based upon companies in our industry with similar business models and is consistent with those used to benchmark its executive compensation.

Performance RSUs
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we issued 119,887 Performance RSUs with a grant date fair value of $49.14. The Performance RSUs are settled at the end of a 3-year performance period, with 50% of the Performance RSUs subject to achievement based on the Company’s adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization further adjusted for net deferral and recognition of revenues and related direct expenses related to sales of VOIs of projects under construction. The remaining 50% of the Performance RSUs are subject to the achievement of certain contract sales targets.
Compensation expense will be recorded through the end of the performance period if it is deemed probable that the performance goals will be met. If the performance goals are not met, no compensation cost will be recognized and any previously recognized compensation cost will be reversed.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In March 2017, the Board of Directors adopted the Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which became effective during 2017. In connection with the ESPP, we issued 2.5 million shares of common stock which may be purchased under the ESPP. The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a price per share not less than 95% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the purchase date, up to a maximum threshold established by the plan administrator for the offering period. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized less than $1 million of compensation expense related to this plan.
During fourth quarter of 2022, the Board of Directors amended the ESPP plan to allow eligible employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a price per share not less than 85% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the first day of the Purchase Period or the last day of the Purchase Period, whichever is lower, up to a maximum threshold established by the plan administrator for the offering period. The amendment became effective in 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized less than $1 million of compensation expense related to this plan.

Note 14:16: Business Segments

We operate our business through the following two segments:

Real estate sales and financing – We market and sell VOIs that we own. We also source VOIs through fee-for-service agreements with third-party developers. Related to the sales of the VOIs that we own, we provide consumer financing, which includes interest income generated from the origination of consumer loans to customers to finance their purchase of VOIs and revenue from servicing the loans. We also generate fee revenue from servicing the loans provided by third-party developers to purchasers of their VOIs.

Resort operations and club management – We manage the Club,Clubs and earn activation fees, annual dues and transaction fees from member exchanges for other vacation products. We also earn fees for managing the timeshare properties. We generate rental revenue from unit rentals of unsold inventory and inventory made available due to ownership exchanges under our Club program.programs. We also earn revenue from food and beverage, retail and spa outlets at our timeshare properties.

The performance of our operating segments is evaluated primarily based on adjusted earnings before interest expense (excluding non-recourse debt), taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, which has been further adjusted to exclude certain items, including, but not limited to, gains, losses and expenses in connection with: (i) other gains, including asset dispositions; (ii)dispositions and foreign currency transactions; (iii)(ii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iv)(iii) non-cash impairment losses; (v) reorganization costs, including severance and relocation costs; (vi)(iv) share-based and other compensation expenses; (vii)and (v) other items, including but not limited to costs related to the spin-off;associated with acquisitions, restructuring, amortization of premiums and (viii)discounts resulting from purchase accounting, and other items. During the first quarter of 2017, we revised our definition of EBITDA to exclude the adjustment of interest expense relating to our non-recourse debt as a reconciling item to arrive at net income (loss) in order to conform to the presentation of the timeshare industry following the consummation of the spin-off from Hilton. This adjustment was retrospectively applied to prior period(s) to conform with the current presentation.

We utilize surety bonds related to the sales of VOIs in order to meet regulatory requirements of certain states.

Overview

Spin-Off Transactions

On January 3, 2017, the previously announced spin-off was completed by way of a pro rata distribution of the Company’s common stock to Hilton stockholders. Each Hilton stockholder received one share of our common stock for every ten shares of Hilton common stock. As a result of the spin-off, we became a separate publicly-traded company on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “HGV” and Hilton did not retain any ownership interest in us.

In connection with the completion of the spin-off, we entered into agreements with Hilton (who at the time was a related party) and other third parties, including licenses to use the Hilton brand. See Key Agreements Related to the Spin-Off section in Part I – Item 1. Business of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further information.

On March 15, 2017, Blackstone completed the previously announced sale of 24,750,000 shares of our common stock to HNA, representing approximately 25 percent of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Blackstone retained 15,008,689 shares, or approximately 15 percent of our common stock upon the completion of the sale.

In connection with the consummation of the sale, we adopted our amended and restated by-laws, effective March 15, 2017, to remove references to Blackstone’s ownership of at least 40 percent of the total voting power of our common stock and revised certain provisions referencing the Blackstone Stockholders Agreement, as appropriate, to include references to the HNA Stockholder Agreement.

On May 25, 2017, Blackstone filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and registered all of our common stock held by them. On June 14, 2017, Blackstone entered into an underwriting agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC pursuant to which J.P. Morgan Securities LLC agreed to purchase from Blackstone 9,650,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $35.40 per share. The sale was completed on June 20, 2017. Subsequently, on September 25, 2017, Blackstone completed the sale of substantially all of the remaining shares of our common stock held by them to several institutional investors.  We did not received any proceeds from either of these sales.  As of September 30, 2017, Blackstone holds only a nominal number of shares of our common stock.    


Tax Matters Agreement

Subsequent to the spin-off, we have no unrecognized taxes that, if recognized, would have impacted our effective tax rate. As a large taxpayer, Hilton is continuously under audit by the IRS and other taxing authorities. HGV has joined in the Hilton U.S. Federal tax consolidated filing for prior tax years up to the date of the spin-off. Although we do not anticipate that a significant impact to our unrecognized tax balance will occur during the next fiscal year as a result of these audits, it remains possible that the amount of our liability for unrecognized taxes could change over that time period. Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement, Hilton is liable and shall pay the relevant tax authority for all taxes related to the taxable income prior to the spin-off. HGV will be responsible for its portion of any amounts Hilton is deemed liable by a taxing authority according to the Tax Matters Agreement. HGV is responsible for tax years subsequent to the spin-off.

Our Business

We are a rapidly growingglobal timeshare company that marketsengaged in developing, marketing, selling, managing and sells VOIs, managesoperating timeshare resorts, in top leisuretimeshare plans and urbanancillary reservation services, primarily under the Hilton Grand Vacations brand. Our operations primarily consist of: selling vacation ownership intervals and vacation ownership interests (collectively, “VOIs” or “VOI”) for us and third parties; financing and servicing loans provided to consumers for their timeshare purchases; operating resorts and timeshare plans; and managing our points-based Hilton Grand Vacations Club and Hilton Club exchange programs and the Diamond points-based multi-resort timeshare clubs and exchange programs.
During 2022, we began offering a new club membership called HGV Max across certain of our sales centers. For any customer who purchases a VOI, this membership provides the ability to use points across all properties within our network. The membership provides new destinations for existing club owners and operates a points-basedbroader vacation club. opportunities for new buyers. It also combines the best benefits from our existing programs, new travel benefits, Hilton hotel discounts and benefits and alternative experiential options available to HGV Max owners. Our club offerings, including HGV Max, are collectively referred to as “Clubs”.
As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, we have 48 resorts, representing 8,101 units, which areover 150 properties located in iconic vacation destinations such as the Hawaiian Islands, New York City, OrlandoUnited States (“U.S.”), Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean, Canada, and Las Vegas,Japan. A significant number of our properties and VOIs are concentrated in Florida, Europe, Hawaii, California, Arizona, Nevada and Virginia and feature spacious, condominium-style accommodations with superior amenities and quality service. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, we havehad approximately 284,000 Hilton Grand Vacations519,000 members across our club offerings. Based on the type of Club (the “Club”) members.

Our Segments
We operate our business across two segments: (1) realReal estate sales and financing; and (2) resortResort operations and club management.

Real Estate Sales and Financing

Our primary product isincludes the marketing and selling of fee-simple VOIs deeded in perpetuity and right to use real estate interests, developed either by us or by third parties. This ownership interest is an interest in real estate generally equivalent to one week annuallyon an annual or biennial basis, at the timeshare resort wherein which the VOI was purchased.is located. Traditionally, timeshare operators have funded 100 percent100% of the investment necessary to acquire land and construct timeshare properties. In 2010, we began sourcingWe source VOIs through developed properties and fee-for-service and just-in-time agreements with third-party developers and have successfully transformed from a capital-intensive business to one that is highly capital-efficient.focused our inventory strategy on developing an optimal inventory mix. The fee-for-service agreements enable us to generate fees from the sales and marketing of the VOIs and Club memberships and from the management of the timeshare properties without requiring us to fund acquisition and construction costs. The just-in-time agreements enable us to source VOI inventory in a manner that allows us to correlate the timing of acquisition of the inventory by us with the sale to purchasers. Sales of owned, inventory, including purchased just-in-time, inventory generally result in greater Adjusted EBITDA contributions, while fee-for-service sales require less initial investment and allow us to accelerate our sales growth. Both sales of owned inventory and fee-for-service sales generate long-term, predictable fee streams, by adding to the Club membership base and properties under management, that generate strong returns on invested capital.

Another one of our products is the marketing and selling of beneficial interests in one of our Collections, which are represented by an annual or biennial allotment of points that can be utilized for vacations at any of the resorts in that Collection. In general, purchasers of a VOI in a collection do not acquire a direct ownership interest in the resort properties in the Collection. Rather for each Collection, one or more trustees hold legal title to the deeded fee simple real estate interests or the functional equivalent, or, in some cases, leasehold real estate interests for the benefit of the respective Collection’s association members in accordance with the applicable agreements.

For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, sales from fee-for-service and just-in-time inventory were 33%, and developed inventory sources were 54 percent, 20 percent and 26 percent, respectively,17% of contract sales.sales, respectively. See “-RealKey Business and Financial Metrics and Terms Used by Management — Real Estate Sales Metrics”Operating Metrics for additional discussion of contract sales. Based onThe estimated contract sales value related to our trailing twelve months sales pace, we have access to approximately five years ofinventory that is currently available for sale at open or soon-to-be open projects and inventory at new or existing projects that will become available for sale in the future inventory, with capitalupon registration, delivery or construction is $11.7 billion at current pricing. Capital efficient arrangements, representingcomprised of our fee-for-service and just-in-time inventory, represented approximately 88 percent38% of that supply. We believe that the visibility into our long-term supply allows us to efficiently manage inventory to meet predicted sales, reduce capital investments, minimize our exposure to the cyclicality of the real estate market and mitigate the risks of entering into new markets.

We originate loanssell our vacation ownership products primarily through our distribution network of both-in-market and off-site sales centers. Our products are currently marketed for sale throughout the United States, Mexico, Canada, Europe, and Japan. We operate sales distribution centers in major markets and popular leisure destinations with year-round demand and a history of being a friendly environment for vacation ownership. We have over 50 sales distribution centers in various domestic and international locations. Our marketing and sales activities are based on targeted direct marketing and a highly personalized sales approach. We use targeted direct marketing to reach potential members who are identified as having the financial ability to pay for our products, are frequent leisure travelers, and have an affinity with our brands. Tour flow quality impacts key metrics such as close rate and VPG, defined in “Key Business and Financial Metrics and Terms Used by Management—Real Estate Sales Operating Metrics.” Additionally, the quality of tour flow impacts sales revenue and the collectability of our timeshare financing receivables. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, 69% of our contract sales were to our existing owners, compared to 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Our loanstimeshare financing receivables are collateralized by the underlying VOIs and are generally structured as 10-year, fully-amortizing loans that bear a fixed interest rate typically ranging from 9 percent2.5% to 18 percent25% per annum.

Financing propensity was 59% and 65% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We calculate financing propensity as contract sales volume of financed contracts originated in the period divided by contract sales volume of all contracts originated in the period.

The interest rate on our loans is determined by, among other factors, the amount of the down payment, the borrower’s credit profile and the loan term. The weighted averageweighted-average FICO score for new loans to U.S. and Canadian borrowers at the time of origination were as follows:

Some of our loanstimeshare financing receivables have been pledged as collateral in our securitization transactions, which have in the past and may in the future provide funding for our business activities. In these securitization transactions, special purpose entities are established to issue various classes of debt securities which are generally collateralized by a single pool of assets consisting of timeshare financing receivables that we service and related cash deposits. For additional information see Note 4: 5: Timeshare Financing Receivables in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In addition, we earn fees from servicing our securitized loan portfoliotimeshare financing receivables and the loans provided by third-party developers of our fee-for-service projects to purchasers of their VOIs.

Resort Operations and Club Management

We enter into a management agreementagreements with the homeowners’ association (“HOA”)HOAs of the VOI owners for timeshare resorts developed by us or a third party. Each of the HOAs is governed by a board of directors comprisingcomprised of owner and developer representatives that are charged with ensuring the resorts are well-maintained and financially stable. Our management services include day-to-day operations of the resorts, maintenance of the resorts, preparation of books and financial records including reports, budgets and projections, arranging for annual audits and employeemaintenance fee billing and collections and personal employment training and oversight. Our HOA management agreements provide for a cost-plus management fee, which means we generally earn a fee equal to 10 percent10% to 15 percent15% of the costs to operate the applicable resort. TheAs a result, the fees we earn are highly predictable due to the relatively fixed nature of resort operating expenses and our management fees are unaffected by changes in rental rate or occupancy. We are also reimbursed for the costs incurred to perform our services, principally related to personnel providing on-site services. The initial termoriginal terms of our management agreements typically ranges fromrange from three to five years and

the agreements are subject to periodic renewal for one to three yearthree-year periods. Many of these agreements renew automatically unless either party provides advance notice of termination before the expiration of the term.

Since our inception, none of the management agreements relating to our owned or fee-for-service properties have been terminated or lapsed.

We also manage and operate the points-based Hilton Grand Vacations ClubClubs and Hilton Club exchange programs, which provide exclusive exchange, leisure travel and reservation services to our Club members.programs. When an owner purchasesowners purchase a VOI, he or she isthey are generally automatically enrolled in thea Club and given an annual allotment of points that allowwhich allows the member to exchange his or her annual usage rights in the VOI that they owntheir points for a number of vacation and travel options. In addition to an annual membership fee, Club members pay incremental fees depending on exchanges they choose within the Club system.

We rent unsold VOI inventory, third-party inventory and inventory made available due to ownership exchanges through our Clubclub programs. We earn a fee from rentals of third-party inventory. Additionally, we provide ancillary offerings including food and beverage, retail and spa offerings at these timeshare properties.

Key Business and Financial Metrics and Terms Used by Management

Real Estate Sales Operating Metrics

The

We measure our performance using the following are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP:

key operating metrics:

Contract sales represents the total amount of VOI products (fee-for-service, just-in-time, developed, and points-based) under purchase agreements signed during the period where we have received a down payment of at least 10 percent10% of the contract price. Contract sales is not a recognized term under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to Sales of VOIs, net or any other comparable operating measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Contract sales differ from revenues from the Sales of VOIs, net that we report in our condensed consolidated statements of operations due to the requirements for revenue recognition, as well as adjustments for incentives and other administrative fee revenues. We considerincentives. While we do not record the purchase price of sales of VOI products developed by fee-for-service partners as revenue in our condensed consolidated financial statements, rather recording the commission earned as revenue in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe contract sales to be an important operating measure because it reflectsoperational metric, reflective of the overall volume and pace of sales in our business.

business and believe it provides meaningful comparability of our results to the results of our competitors which may source their VOI products differently.
We believe that the presentation of contract sales on a combined basis (fee-for-service, just-in-time, developed and points-based) is most appropriate for the purpose of the operating metric; additional information regarding the split of contract sales, is included in “—Real Estate” below.

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

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

Tour flow represents the number of sales presentations given at our sales centers during the period.

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


Capital efficiency ratio represents the ratio of cost of VOI sales to VOI inventory spend, including fee-for-service upgrades. We consider this to be an important operating measure because capital efficiency allows us to reduce inventory investment requirements while continuing to generate growth in revenues and cash flows.

Resort and Club Management and Rental Metrics

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

For further information see Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, presented herein, is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP that reflects net income, (loss), before interest expense (excluding non-recourse debt), a provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. During the first quarter of 2017, we revised our definition of EBITDA to exclude the adjustment of interest expense relating to our non-recourse debt as a reconciling item to arrive at net income (loss) in order to conform to the presentation of the timeshare industry following the consummation of the spin-off from Hilton. The revised definition was applied to prior period(s) to conform with current presentation.
Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, as previously defined, further adjusted to exclude certain items, including, but not limited to, gains, losses and expenses in connection with: (i) other gains, including asset dispositions; (ii)dispositions and foreign currency transactions; (iii)(ii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iv)(iii) non-cash impairment losses; (v) reorganization costs, including severance and relocation costs; (vi)(iv) share-based and certain other compensation expenses; (vii)and (v) other items, including but not limited to costs related to the spin-off;associated with acquisitions, restructuring, amortization of premiums and (viii)discounts resulting from purchase accounting, and other items.

non-cash and one-time charges.

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

27

Table of Contents
We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions; and (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for net income, (loss), cash flow or other methods of analyzing our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our interest expense (excluding interest expense on non-recourse debt), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness;

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for future replacements of assets that are being depreciated and amortized; and

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be calculated differently from other companies in our industry limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

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

Recent Events

On July 18, 2017, we entered into an agreement with BRE Ace Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BRE Ace Holdings”), an affiliateTable of Blackstone and formed BRE Ace LLC. Pursuant to the agreement, we contributed $40 million in cash for a 25 percent interest in BRE Ace LLC, which owns a 1,201-key timeshare resort property and related operations, commonly known as “Elara, by Hilton Grand Vacations,” located in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

On September 10, 2017, Hurricane Irma hit the Florida Keys as a Category 4 hurricane, weakening somewhat as it made landfall along Florida’s southwest shoreline. Although certain of our managed Florida properties were temporarily closed during the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, neither HGV’s operations nor financial performance were significantly impacted by this storm. In the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, the IRS has granted an automatic extension to individuals and businesses affected by the hurricanes, which extends tax filing and payment deadlines beginning September 4, 2017.  As a result, we have delayed our third quarter Federal income tax payment.

Real Estate Sales and Financing

Real

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”), revenue and the related costs to fulfill and acquire the contract (“direct costs”) from sales of VOIs under construction are deferred until the point in time when construction activities are deemed to be completed. The real estate sales and financing segment revenues increase foris impacted by construction related deferral and recognition activity. In periods where Sales of VOIs and related direct costs of projects under construction are deferred, margin percentages will generally contract as the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared toindirect marketing and selling costs associated with these sales are recognized as incurred in the same periodcurrent period. In periods where previously deferred Sales of VOIs and related direct costs are recognized upon construction completion, margin percentages will generally expand as the indirect marketing and selling costs associated with these sales were recognized in 2016, primarily due to a $4 million increase in sales revenue, a $2 million increase in marketingprior periods.
The following table represents deferrals and recognitions of Sales of VOI revenue and a $4 million increased in financing revenues. The increase in sales revenue was primarily due to higher sales of VOIs, net, due to sales at our newly developed project beginning in the fourth quarter of 2016.  The increase in marketing revenues was primarily due to an increase in title related services. The increase in financing revenues was primarily due an increase in interest income from higher outstanding timeshare financing receivables balance. Real estate sales and financing segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $4 milliondirect costs for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a $14 million increase in sales and marketing expense as well as a decrease in commission and brand fees.

Rental and ancillary services revenues increased for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to an increase of $4 million in rental revenues as a result of higher transient room and club inventory rentals at our developed and fee-for-service properties.  Rental expenses increased by $2 million, offset by a decrease in ancillary expense.  

Rental and ancillary services revenues increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to an increase of $4 million in rental revenues as a result of higher transient room and club inventory rentals at our developed and fee-for-service properties.  The increases were partially offset by (i) a net increase of $2 million in rental expenses due to additional owners and new properties, (ii) a one-time insurance claim payment of $2 million received in 2016, and (iii) a reduction in access fees received due to higher quantity of access fees sold in 2016.

Rental and ancillary services margin increased for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, due to aforementioned increases in segment revenues and lower property subsidy expenses from operational savings. Rental and ancillary services margin was flat for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016.

The Allocated Parent interest expense relates to an unconditional obligation to guarantee certain Hilton allocated debt balances which was released in November 2016.

The increase in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016 is directly related to the financing transactions closed during and subsequent to the fourth quarter of 2016.

Income tax expense decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to a decrease in the cumulative installment sale interest liability.

Equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliate relates to our 25 percent interest in BRE Ace LLC.  See Note 7: Investment in unconsolidated affiliate in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Prior

Our cash management objectives are to maintain the fourth quarteravailability of 2016, any net cash generated by our business has been transferred to Hilton, where it has been centrally managed. Transfers of cash toliquidity, minimize operational costs, make debt payments and from Hilton have been reflected as a component of Net transfers (to) from Parent in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

As of September 30, 2017, we had total cashfund future acquisitions and cash equivalents of $284 million, including $58 million of restricted cash. The restricted cash balance relates to escrowed cash from our sales of our VOIs and consumer financing receivables pledged to our non-recourse revolving timeshare receivable credit facility or securitizations.

development projects. Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures, including payroll and related benefits, legal costs, operating costs associated with the operation of our resorts and sales centers, interest and scheduled principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness, inventory-related purchase commitments, and capital expenditures for renovations and maintenance at our offices and sales centers. Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities, inventory-related purchase commitments and costs associated with potential acquisitions and development projects.

We finance our business activitiesshort- and long-term liquidity needs primarily with existingthrough cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from our operations, draws on our revolver credit facility, our non-recourse revolving timeshare credit facility (“Timeshare Facility”), and through periodic securitizations of our timeshare financing receivables.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we acquired a property in New York for $136 million from a third-party developer for inventory.
As of March 31, 2023, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $752 million, including $363 million of restricted cash.
As of March 31, 2023, we had $671 million remaining borrowing capacity under the revolver facility.
As of March 31, 2023, we had an aggregate of $575 million remaining borrowing capacity under our Timeshare Facility. Of this amount, we have $312 million of mortgage notes that are available to be securitized and another $279 million of mortgage notes that we expect will become eligible as soon as they meet typical milestones including receipt of first payment, deeding, or recording.
We believe that this cash willour capital allocation strategy provides adequate funding for our operations, is flexible enough to fund our development pipeline, securitizes the optimal level of receivables, and provides the ability to be adequatestrategically opportunistic in the marketplace.

Operating Activities

Cash flow provided by operating activities is primarily generated from (1) sales and financing of VOIs and (2) net cash generated from managing our resorts, Club operations and providing related rental and ancillary services. Cash flows used inprovided by operating activities primarily include spending for the acquisition of inventory, development of new phases of existing resorts and funding our working capital needs.needs and purchase of VOI inventory, including the purchase and development of real estate for future conversion to inventory. Our cash flows from operations generally vary due to the following factors related to the sale of our VOIs:VOIs; the degree to which our owners finance their purchase and our owners’ repayment of timeshare financing receivables; the timing of management and sales and marketing services provided; and cash outlays for VOI inventory acquisition and development. Additionally, cash flow from operations will also vary depending upon our sales mix of VOIs; over time, we generally receive more cash from the sale of an owned VOI as compared to that from a fee-for-service sale.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased by $166was $26 million duringfor the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, compared to $270 million in the same 2022period in 2016, primarily as a result of improved operating results in the real estate salesprior year. The change was primarily due to our purchase of inventory from a third party developer, and financing segment and increased sources ofincreases in cash utilized for working capital, requirements.  In addition, as permittedwhich is partially offset by an increase in net income during the federal government pursuant to a tax relief program for regions impacted by Hurricane Irma, we deferred our estimated federal tax payment until the first quarter of 2018.

Capital efficiency allows us to reduce inventory investment requirements and to generate growth in revenues and cash flows. Over a short-term period, depending on the timing of inventory spend, our capital efficiency may vary; however, over the long-term, we generally target a 50/50 mix of owned and fee-for-service inventory, which we expect will allow us to expand partner relationships and to provide a strong inventory supply without the upfront capital investment. In addition, we continue to move towards more just-in-time owned inventory sourcing arrangements that we expect to also drive capital efficiency. The change for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, is primarily due to reduced inventory spending while maintaining a consistent sales pace and fewer fee-for-service upgrades.  However, over the long-term, we consider a ratio of VOI inventory spend to cost of VOI sales of 1:1 to be indicative of capital efficiency.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. We have discussed those policies and estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Since the date of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or the methods or assumptions we apply under them.

account currency exchange rates. Our exposure to market risk has not materially changed from what we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable-rate debt, comprised of the term loans and our timeshare facility, of which the timeshare facility is without recourse to us. The interest rate is based on one-month LIBOR and we are most vulnerable to changes in this rate.

We intend to securitize timeshare financing receivables in the asset-backed financing market periodically. We expect to secure fixed rate funding to match our fixed rate timeshare financing receivables. However, if we have floating rate debt in the future, we will monitor the interest rate risk and evaluate opportunities to mitigate such risk through the use of derivative instruments.

To the extent we utilize variable rate indebtedness in the future, any increase in interest rates beyond amounts covered under any corresponding derivative financial instruments, particularly if sustained, could have an adverse effect on our net income, cash flows and financial position. Hedging transactions we enter into may not adequately mitigate the adverse effects of interest rate increases or that counterparties in those transactions will honor their obligations.


The following table sets forth the contractual maturities, weighted average interest rates and the total fair values as of September 30, 2017, for our financial instruments that are materially affected by interest rate risk:

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Though the majority of our operations are conducted in United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”), we are exposed to earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our principal exposure results from our timeshare financing receivables denominated in Japanese yen, the value of which could change materially in reference to our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. A 10 percent increase in the foreign exchange rate of Japanese yen to U.S. dollar would increase our gross timeshare financing receivables by less than $1 million.

ITEM 4.

ITEM 4.    Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) or our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of the controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error and mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of controls and procedures to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls and procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the controls and procedures may have deteriorated.
In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we evaluated,an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operationeffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such termprocedures. Based on that evaluation, and due to the previously identified material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting that is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), and management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures,described below, which by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance about management’s control objectives. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. However, you should note that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and we cannot assure you that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Based upon the foregoing evaluation,still being remediated, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2023.
As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023, we identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to Diamond. Diamond, which was privately owned prior to our acquisition in August 2021 and, operating to provide reasonable assurance that we record, process, summarize and report the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submitaccordingly, not a reporting company under the Exchange Act, withindid not adequately identify, design and implement the process-level controls for its significant processes that are necessary for compliance with the requirements for reporting companies pursuant to the Exchange Act and Diamond did not have appropriate information technology controls for its information technology systems or such controls did not operate for a sufficient period of time periods specified inprior to the rules and formsassessment date. These deficiencies neither pertained to, nor impacted, any of the SEC,processes, controls or procedures related to the historical business of the Company outside of Diamond. Additionally, the material weakness did not result in any identified misstatements to our financial statements, and there were no changes to provide reasonable assurance that we accumulate and communicate such informationpreviously released financial results.
Notwithstanding the previously identified material weakness, which continues to ourbe remediated, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Ongoing Remediation Efforts to Address the Previously Identified Material Weakness
Management has enhanced, and will continue to enhance, the risk assessment process and design and implementation of internal controls over financial reporting at Diamond. The remediation measures to correct the previously identified material weakness include enhancing the design and implementation of existing controls and creating new controls as needed to address identified risks and providing additional training to personnel including the appropriate level of documentation to allow timely decisions about required disclosure.

be maintained to support internal controls over financial reporting.

The previously identified material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We expect that the material weakness will be remediated by the end of 2023.
Changes in Internal ControlControls Over Financial Reporting

There

Other than with respect to the remediation efforts described above in connection with the previously identified material weakness, there were no changes in our internal controlcontrols over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controlcontrols over financial reporting.

Item 1A.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Set forth below are the

As of March 31, 2023, there have been no material changes tofrom the risk factors discussedpreviously disclosed in Item 1A of Part 1I of theour Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. In addition2022. These risk factors may be important to the other information set forthunderstanding statements in this Quarterly Report onthe Form 10-Q youand should carefully considerbe read in conjunction with the risk factors discussed belowcondensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part I, Item 1A of1, "Financial Statements" and Part 1, Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Annual Report onFinancial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price. 10-Q.
The risks described below and in the Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing HGV. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management or that management presently believes not to be material may also result in material and adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price.

Partnership or joint venture investments could be adversely affected by our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on partners’ or co-venturers’ financial condition, disputes between us and our partners or co-venturers and our obligation to guaranty certain obligations beyond the amount of our investments.

We may co-invest in the future with other third parties through partnerships, joint ventures or other entities, acquiring non-controlling interests in, or sharing responsibility for managing the affairs, of a timeshare property, partnership, joint venture or other entity. For example, we recently entered into the Joint Venture Agreement with BRE Ace Holdings, an affiliate of Blackstone, pursuant to which we acquired a non-managing 25 percent interest in BRE Ace LLC, which owns a 1,201-key timeshare resort property and related operations, commonly known as “Elara, by Hilton Grand Vacations,” located in Las Vegas, Nevada (the “Elara Joint Venture.”) Consequently, with respect to any such third-party arrangements, we would not be in a position to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the property, partnership, joint venture or other entity, and may, under certain circumstances, be exposed to risks not present if a third party were not involved, including the possibility that partners or co-venturers might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, and we may be forced to make contributions to maintain the value of the property. Such investments may also have the potential risk of impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor the partner or co-venturer may have full control over the partnership or joint venture. We and our respective partners or co-venturers may each have the right to trigger a buy-sell right or forced sale arrangement, which could cause us to sell our interest, or acquire our partners’ or co-venturers’ interest, or to sell the underlying asset, either on unfavorable terms or at a time when we otherwise would not have initiated such a transaction. In addition, a sale or transfer by us to a third party of our interests in the partnership or joint venture may be subject to consent rights or rights of first refusal in favor of our partners or co-venturers, which would in each case restrict our ability to dispose of our interest in the partnership or joint venture. For example, our joint venture partner in the Elara Joint Venture generally has exclusive authority to manage the business and affairs of the Elara Joint Venture, and has the discretion to call for additional capital contributions at any time. In addition, it has certain rights to transfer or sell some or all of its interests in the Elara Joint Venture and/or the Property without our consent or, in certain situations, require us to sell our interests at the same time, while we are not permitted to sell or transfer our interest without their consent. Any or all of these factors could adversely affect the value of our investment, our ability to exit, sell or dispose of our investment at times that are beneficial to us, or our financial commitment to maintaining our interest in the joint ventures.

Our joint ventures may be subject to debt and the refinancing of such debt, and we may be required to provide certain guarantees or be responsible for the full amount of the debt in certain circumstances in the event of a default beyond the amount of our equity investment. Our joint venture partners may take actions that are inconsistent with the interests of the partnership or joint venture, or in violation of the financing arrangements and trigger our guaranty, which may expose us to substantial financial obligation and commitment that are beyond our ability to fund. In addition, partners or co-venturers may have economic or other business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals and may be in a position to take action or withhold consent contrary to our policies or objectives. In some instances, partners or co-venturers may have competing interests in our markets that could create conflict of interest issues. Disputes between us and partners or co-venturers may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent our officers from focusing their time and effort on our business. Consequently, actions by or disputes with partners or co-venturers might result in subjecting assets owned by the partnership or joint venture to additional risk. In addition, we may, in certain circumstances, be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers.


A significant percentage of our revenue is derived from our fee-for-service agreements with respect to two properties that are owned by a third party, and any termination of such arrangements could have a materially adverse impact on our revenues and financial results.

We derived approximately 20 percent and 14 percent of our revenues for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, from fee-for-service fees with respect two of our properties that are owned single third party and for which we have entered into fee-for-service agreements. If these fee-for-service agreements are terminated by the property owner, if one or both properties are sold to another party without the continuation of such arrangement, or if there is any occurrence or existence of any adverse economic development, adverse acts of natural or manmade disasters, or any other conditions (as more fully described in our Risk Factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as updated2022, contain forward-looking statements, and they may not be the only risks facing the Company. The future business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company can be affected by the risk factors described in such reports and by other factors currently unknown, that management presently believes not to be material, that management has made certain forward-looking projections, estimates or assumptions on, or that may rapidly evolve, develop or change. Any one or more of such factors could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual financial condition and results of operations to vary materially and adversely from time to time) that negativelypast, or disproportionately adversely affects either or bothfrom anticipated future financial condition and results of operations. Any of these two properties,factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our revenues,business, results of operations and financial condition and the trading price of our common stock. Because of these factors affecting our financial condition, key business operational metrics, and operating results, and ourpast financial performance couldshould not be materially adversely impacted.

(c) Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On May 4, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to an aggregate of $500 million of its outstanding shares of common stock over a two-year period. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements and other market and economic conditions. The shares are retired upon repurchase. The stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and will automatically expire at the end of the two-year term.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we repurchased the following shares:
