Wyndham Destinations, Inc.

Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Wyndham Destinations, Inc. (formerly Wyndham Worldwide Corporation) and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 2018, the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and of (deficit)/equity and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "interim financial statements"). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows and equity for the year then ended prior to reclassification for the discontinued operations described in Note 6 (not presented herein) and prior to retrospective adjustment for a change in the Company's method of accounting for revenue from contracts with customers under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers described in Note 2 (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 16, 2018, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. We also audited the adjustments described in Note 6 and Note 2 that were applied to reclassify and retrospectively adjust the December 31, 2017, consolidated balance sheet of the Company (not presented herein). In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied to the previously issued consolidated balance sheet in deriving the accompanying retrospectively adjusted condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017.

Basis for Review Results

The interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are in millions, except share and per share amounts)

(Unaudited)

1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Background

Wyndham Destinations, Inc., formerly known as Wyndham Worldwide Corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Wyndham Destinations” or the “Company”), is a global provider of hospitality services and products. The Company operates in two segments: Vacation Ownership and Exchange & Rentals. 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 Exchange & Rentals segment provides vacation exchange services and products to owners of VOIs and manages and markets vacation rental properties primarily on behalf of independent owners.

On May 31, 2018, the Company completed the previously announced spin-off of its hotel business into a separate publicly traded company, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (“Wyndham Hotels”). This transaction was effected through a pro rata distribution of the new hotel entity’s stock to Wyndham Destinations shareholders. In connection with the spin-off, the Company entered into certain agreements with Wyndham Hotels to implement the legal and structural separation, govern the relationship between the Company and Wyndham Hotels up to and after the completion of the separation, and allocate various assets, liabilities and obligations, including, among other things, employee benefits, intellectual property and tax-related assets and liabilities between the Company and Wyndham Hotels. The two public companies have entered into long-term exclusive license agreements to retain their affiliations with one of the industry’s top-rated loyalty programs, Wyndham Rewards, as well as to continue to collaborate on inventory-sharing and customer cross-sell initiatives.

On May 9, 2018, the Company completed the sale of its European vacation rentals business.

For all periods presented, the Company has classified the results of operations for its hotel business and its European vacation rentals business as discontinued operations, unless otherwise noted. See further detail in Note 6—Discontinued Operations.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include the accounts and transactions of Wyndham Destinations, as well as the entities in which Wyndham Destinations directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to comply with newly adopted accounting standards. See further detail in Note 2—New Accounting Pronouncements.

The Company changed its balance sheet presentation from classified (distinguishing between short-term and long-term accounts) to unclassified (no such distinction) in the second quarter of 2018. This change was prompted by the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels at which time the Company became predominantly a real-estate timeshare company. This presentation conforms to that of the Company’s peers within the timeshare industry. Both the December 31, 2017 and the September 30, 2018 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets have been presented in an unclassified format.

In presenting the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. In management’s opinion, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim results reported. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2017 Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 16, 2018.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued 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 guidance requires modified retrospective application and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 for public companies; however, early adoption is permitted. Entities are allowed to apply the modified retrospective approach (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative-effect adjustment recognized at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or (ii) retrospectively at the beginning of the period of adoption on January 1, 2019, through a cumulative-effect adjustment.

Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company anticipates that most of its operating leases will result in the recognition of right of use assets and the corresponding liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s operating lease portfolio is comprised of real estate and equipment leases. We have established a cross-functional coordinated team to implement the guidance. We are in the process of finalizing the scope of the impact, implementing a new system solution and evaluating our processes and internal controls to meet the reporting and disclosure requirements. Although the actual impact of the guidance will depend on the Company’s lease portfolio at the time of adoption, we expect its adoption to have a significant impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company continues to assess all implications of the implementation of this guidance and related financial disclosures.

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. In June 2016, the 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 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, 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.

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 2 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 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years, 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.

Derivatives and Hedging - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance intended to better align an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. The guidance will expand and refine hedge accounting for both nonfinancial and financial risk components and align the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Reporting Comprehensive Income - Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance allowing for the reclassification of the stranded tax effects resulting from the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to retained earnings. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years, and should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its 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 will more closely align the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees. This guidance is effective for

fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

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 is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The guidance also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance recognized at the date of initial application within the statement of financial position. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018 utilizing the full retrospective transition method. This new guidance had a minimal impact on the Company’s continuing operations.

In addition, the cumulative impact to the Company’s retained earnings at January 1, 2016, was a decrease of $90 million.

Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. In October 2016, the FASB issued guidance which requires companies to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. This guidance requires the modified retrospective approach and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018, as required, which resulted in a cumulative-effect decrease to retained earnings of $19 million.

13

Clarifying the Definition of a Business. In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the definition of a business, which assists entities when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of businesses or assets. This guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018, as required. There was no material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Compensation - Stock Compensation. In May 2017, the FASB issued guidance which provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018, as required. There was no material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Statement of Cash Flows. In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. This guidance requires the retrospective transition method and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018, as required.

Restricted Cash. In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance which requires amounts generally described as restrictedcash be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the total beginning and ending amounts for the periods shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018, as required, using a retrospective transition method. The impact of this guidance resulted in escrow deposits and restricted cash being included with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The table below summarizes the effects of the new statement of cash flows and restricted cash guidance on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017

3. Revenue Recognition

Vacation Ownership

The Company develops, markets and sells VOIs to individual consumers, provides property management services at resorts and provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs. 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.

The Company provides day-to-day property management services including oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance and certain accounting and administrative services for property owners’ associations and clubs. These services may also include reservation and resort renovation activities. Such agreements are generally for terms of one year or less, and are renewed automatically on an annual basis. The Company’s management agreements contain cancellation clauses, which allow for either party to cancel the agreement, by either a majority board vote or a majority vote of non-developer interests. The Company receives fees for such property management services which are collected monthly in advance and are based upon total costs to operate such resorts (or as services are provided in the case of resort renovation activities). Fees for property management services typically approximate 10% of budgeted operating expenses. The Company is entitled to consideration for reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of the property owners’ association in providing the management services (“reimbursable revenue”). The Company reduces its management fees for amounts it has paid to the property owners’ association that reflect maintenance fees for VOIs for which it retains ownership, as the Company has concluded that such payments are consideration payable to a customer.

Exchange & Rentals

As a provider of vacation exchange services, the Company enters into affiliation agreements with developers of vacation ownership properties to allow owners of VOIs to trade their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange brands and, for some members, for other leisure-related services and products. Additionally,

15

as a marketer of vacation rental properties, generally the Company enters into contracts for exclusive periods of time with property owners to market the rental of such properties to rental customers.

The Company’s vacation exchange brands derive a majority of revenues from membership dues and fees for facilitating members’ trading of their intervals. Revenues from membership dues represent the fees paid by members or affiliated clubs on their behalf. The Company recognizes revenues from membership dues paid by the member on a straight-line basis over the membership period as the performance obligations are fulfilled through delivery of publications, if applicable, and by providing access to other travel-related products and services. Consideration paid by affiliated clubs for memberships are recognized as revenue over the term of the contract with the affiliated club in proportion to the estimated average monthly member count. Such estimates are adjusted periodically for changes in the actual and forecasted member activity. For additional fees, members have the right to exchange their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange networks and, for certain members, for other leisure-related services and products. Fees for facilitating exchanges are recognized as revenue, net of expected cancellations, when these transactions have been confirmed to the member.

The Company’s vacation exchange brands also derive revenues from: (i) additional services, programs with affiliated resorts, club servicing and loyalty programs and (ii) additional exchange-related products that provide members with the ability to protect trading power or points, extend the life of deposits, and combine two or more deposits for the opportunity to exchange into intervals with higher trading power. Other vacation exchange related product fees are deferred and recognized as revenue upon the occurrence of a future exchange, other related transaction or event.

The Company earns revenue from its RCI Elite Rewards co–branded credit card program which is primarily generated by cardholder spending and the enrollment of new cardholders. The advance payments received under the program are recognized as a contract liability until the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. The program primarily contains two performance obligations: (i) brand performance services, for which revenue is recognized over the contract term on a straight-line basis, and (ii) issuance and redemption of loyalty points, for which revenue is recognized over time based upon the redemption pattern of the loyalty points earned under the program including an estimate of loyalty points that will expire without redemption.

The Company’s vacation rental brands derive revenue from fees associated with the rental of vacation rental properties managed and marketed by the Company on behalf of independent owners. The Company remits the rental fee received from the renter to the independent owner, net of the Company’s agreed-upon fee. The related revenue from such fees, net of expected refunds, is recognized over the renter’s stay. The Company’s vacation rental brands also derive revenues from additional services delivered to independent owners, vacation rental guests, and property owners’ associations that are generally recognized when the service is delivered.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities generally represent payments or consideration received in advance for goods or services that the Company has not yet transferred to the customer. Contract liabilities as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are as follows:

Contract Liabilities	September 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Deferred subscription revenue	$	227	$	229
Deferred VOI trial package revenue	121		108
Deferred VOI incentive revenue	97		102
Deferred exchange-related revenue	58		63
Deferred vacation rental revenue	37		38
Deferred co-branded credit card programs revenue	14		13
Deferred other revenue	10		3
Total	$	564	$	556

In the Company’s vacation ownership business, deferred VOI trial package revenue represents consideration received in advance for a trial VOI, which allows customers to utilize a vacation package typically within one year of purchase. Deferred VOI incentive revenue represents payments received in advance for additional travel-related services and

16

products at the time of a VOI sale. Revenue is recognized when a customer utilizes the additional services and products, which is typically within one year of the VOI sale.

Within the Company’s vacation exchange business, deferred subscription revenue represents billings and payments received in advance from members and affiliated clubs for memberships in the Company’s vacation exchange programs which are recognized in future periods. Deferred exchange-related revenue primarily represent payments received in advance from members for the right to exchange their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange networks and for other leisure-related services and products which are generally recognized as revenue within one year. In the Company's vacation rentals business, deferred vacation rental revenue represent billings and payments received in advance of a customer’s rental stay which are generally recognized as revenue within one year.

Capitalized Contract Costs

The Company’s vacation ownership business incurs certain direct and incremental selling costs in connection with VOI trial package and incentive revenues. Such costs are capitalized and subsequently amortized over the utilization period, which is typically within one year of the sale. These capitalized costs were $44 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and are included within other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Company’s vacation exchange and vacation rentals businesses incur certain direct and incremental selling costs to obtain contracts with customers in connection with subscription revenues, exchange–related revenues, and vacation rental revenues. Such costs, which are primarily comprised of commissions paid to internal and external parties and credit card processing fees, are deferred at the inception of the contract and recognized when the benefit is transferred to the customer. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, these capitalized costs were $23 million and $9 million, respectively.

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 before the beginning of the earliest reporting period presented, 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. The following table summarizes the Company’s remaining performance obligations for the twelve month periods set forth below:

	10/1/2018-9/30/2019		10/1/2019-9/30/2020		10/1/2020-9/30/2021		Thereafter		Total

5. Acquisitions

La Quinta Holdings Inc. (“La Quinta”). In January 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with La Quinta to acquire its hotel franchising and management businesses for $1.95 billion. At the time we entered into this agreement, we obtained financing commitments of $2.0 billion in the form of an unsecured bridge term loan, which was subsequently replaced with net cash proceeds from the issuance of $500 million unsecured notes, a $1.6 billion term loan and a $750 million revolving credit facility, which was undrawn. This acquisition closed on May 30, 2018, prior to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels. Upon completion of the spin-off, La Quinta became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wyndham Hotels and the associated debt was transferred to Wyndham Hotels.

Love Home Swap. In August 2017, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Love Home Swap, a United Kingdom home exchange company. The Company had convertible notes which, at the time of acquisition, it converted into a 47% equity ownership interest in Love Home Swap and purchased the remaining 53% of equity for $28 million, net of cash acquired. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash gain of $13 million, net of transaction costs, resulting from the remeasurement of the carrying value of the Company’s 47% ownership interest to its fair value. The purchase price allocations resulted primarily in the recognition of (i) $48 million of goodwill, none of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, (ii) $7 million of trademarks, (iii) $4 million of other assets and (iv) $6 million of liabilities. Love Home Swap is included within our Exchange & Rentals segment.

Other. In June of 2017, the Company completed one other acquisition at its former Destination Network segment for $5 million in cash, net of cash acquired. The purchase price allocations resulted primarily in the recognition of (i) $12 million of other assets, (ii) $3 million of goodwill, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, (iii) $1 million of definite-lived intangible assets with a weighted average life of twelve years, and (iv) $11 million of liabilities.

The Company also completed two other acquisitions at its former Destination Network segment during the first quarter of 2017, which are included in discontinued operations, for $11 million in cash, net of cash acquired, and $1 million of contingent consideration.

6. Discontinued Operations

On May 9, 2018, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its European vacation rentals business to Compass IV Limited, an affiliate of Platinum Equity, LLC (the “Buyer”), and received net proceeds of $1.03 billion. During the third quarter of 2018, a portion ($46 million) of the escrow deposit made by the Company in connection with post-closing credit support was agreed to be released in October 2018 in exchange for a secured bonding facility and a perpetual guarantee of $46 million. This third-quarter activity resulted in an additional after-tax gain of $20 million, bringing the cumulative after-tax gain to $452 million, net of $160 million in taxes. The transaction is subject to customary adjustments for cash, debt and working capital. Guarantees and indemnifications provided to the seller are discussed in Note 21—Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries.

On May 31, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of its hotel business. This transaction was effected through a pro rata distribution of the new hotel entity’s stock to existing Wyndham Destinations shareholders. This spin-off included the newly-acquired La Quinta businesses as discussed in Note 5—Acquisitions. In addition, during the second quarter the Company sold its Knights Inn brand and franchise system for $27 million, resulting in a $23 million gain.

For all periods presented, the Company has classified the results of operations for its hotel business and the European vacation rentals business as discontinued operations in its condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, unless otherwise noted. Discontinued operations include direct expenses clearly identifiable to the businesses being discontinued and will not continue to be recognized on an ongoing basis. Discontinued operations exclude the allocation of corporate overhead and interest. Discontinued operations included $93 million of separation and related costs and $19 million of transaction costs related to the sale of the Europeans rentals business during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Prior to the spin-off of the hotel business, the Company had three reportable segments: Vacation Ownership, Destination Network and Hotel Group. Prior to its classification as a discontinued operation, the European vacation rentals business was part of the Destination Network segment and the hotel business comprised the Hotel Group segment. Following the spin-off of the hotel business, the Company changed the structure of its internal organization which caused the composition of its reportable segments to change. The Company now has two reportable segments: Vacation Ownership and Exchange & Rentals as discussed in Note 17—Segment Information.

The following table presents the aggregate carrying amounts of the classes of assets and liabilities from discontinued operations:

	December 31, 2017
Assets
Cash and cash equivalents	$	184
Trade receivables, net	493
Property and equipment, net	609
Goodwill	855
Other intangibles, net	1,059

Liabilities
Accounts payable	$	358
Deferred income	436
Accrued expenses and other liabilities	556
Debt	69
Total liabilities of discontinued operations	$	1,419

The results of our discontinued businesses reflect the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard. Under this standard, initial fees were recognized ratably over the life of the noncancelable period of the franchise agreement and incremental upfront contract costs were deferred and expensed over the life of the noncancelable period of the franchise agreement. Revenue from rentals was recognized over the renters’ stay, which is the period over which the service is rendered. Loyalty revenues were deferred and primarily recognized over the loyalty points’ redemption pattern. Additionally, a liability is no longer accrued for future marketing and reservation costs when marketing and reservation revenues earned exceed costs incurred. Marketing and reservation costs incurred in excess of revenues earned were expensed as incurred.

The following table below presents information regarding certain components of income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes:

7. Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables

The Company generates vacation ownership contract receivables by extending financing to the purchasers of its VOIs. Vacation ownership contract receivables, net consisted of:

	September 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Vacation ownership contract receivables:
Securitized	$	2,587	$	2,553
Non-securitized	1,145		1,039
Vacation ownership contract receivables, gross	3,732		3,592
Less: Allowance for loan losses	743		691
Vacation ownership contract receivables, net	$	2,989	$	2,901

The Company’s securitized vacation ownership contract receivables generated interest income of $93 million and $268 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and $85 million and $251 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. Such interest income is included within consumer financing revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company originated vacation ownership contract receivables of $1.13 billion and $1.04 billion, respectively, and received principal collections of $674 million and $656 million, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding vacation ownership contract receivables was 14.1% and 13.9% as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The activity in the allowance for loan losses on vacation ownership contract receivables was as follows:

	Amount

Provision for loan losses	319
Contract receivables write-offs, net	(256		)
Allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2017	$	684

In accordance with the guidance for accounting for real estate time-sharing transactions, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $132 million and $350 million as a reduction of net revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and $123 million and $319 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.

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 FICO score. A FICO score is a branded version of a consumer credit score widely used in the United States 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, ranging 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 Resort Asia Pacific business for which scores are not readily available).

The following table details an aging analysis of financing receivables using the most recently updated FICO scores (based on the policy described above):

	As of September 30, 2018
	700+		600-699		<600		No Score		Asia Pacific		Total
Current	$	1,969	$	1,045	$	164	$	137	$	251	$	3,566

61 - 90 days	12		18		11		3		1		45
91 - 120 days	10		14		15		3		1		43
Total	$	2,012	$	1,110	$	207	$	148	$	255	$	3,732
	As of December 31, 2017
	700+		600-699		<600		No Score		Asia Pacific		Total
Current	$	1,849	$	1,021	$	166	$	133	$	262	$	3,431
31 - 60 days	19		32		17		5		2		75
61 - 90 days	9		18		13		3		1		44
91 - 120 days	9		16		15		2		—		42
Total	$	1,886	$	1,087	$	211	$	143	$	265	$	3,592

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.

In addition to the inventory obligations listed below, the Company had $9 million and $6 million of inventory accruals included within accounts payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Inventory Sale Transactions

During 2013, the Company sold real property located in Las Vegas, Nevada and Avon, Colorado to a third-party developer, consisting of vacation ownership inventory and property and equipment. During 2015, the Company sold real property located in Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands to a third-party developer, consisting of $80 million of vacation ownership inventory, in exchange for $80 million in cash consideration.

The Company recognized no gain or loss on these sales transactions. In accordance with these agreements with third-party developers, the Company has conditional rights and conditional obligations to repurchase the completed properties from the developers subject to the properties conforming to the Company's vacation ownership resort standards and provided that the third-party developers have not sold the properties to another party. Under the sale of real estate accounting guidance, the Company’s conditional rights and obligations constitute continuing involvement therefore prohibiting the Company from accounting for these transactions as sales.

During 2017, the Company acquired property located in Austin, Texas from a third-party developer for vacation ownership inventory and property and equipment.

New Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent. The agreement provides for new senior secured credit facilities in the amount of $1.3 billion, consisting of secured term loan B of $300 million maturing in 2025 and a new revolving facility of $1.0 billion maturing in 2023. The interest rate per annum applicable to the term loan B is equal to, at the Company’s option, either a base rate (currently 5.25%) plus a margin of 1.25% or LIBOR (Eurocurrency Rate) plus a margin of 2.25%. The interest rate per annum applicable to borrowings under the new revolving credit facility is equal to, at the Company’s option, either a base rate (currently 5.25%) plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.25% or LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25%, in either case based upon the first-lien leverage ratio of Wyndham Destinations and its restricted subsidiaries. The LIBOR rate with respect to either term loan B or revolving credit facility borrowings is subject to a “floor” of 0.00%.

In connection with the new credit agreement, the Company entered into a security agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as collateral agent, as defined in the security agreement, for the secured parties. The security agreement granted a security interest in the collateral of the Company and added the holders of Wyndham Destinations’ outstanding 7.375% notes due 2020, 5.625% notes due 2021, 4.25% notes due 2022, 3.90% notes due 2023, 4.15% notes due 2024, 5.10% notes due 2025 and 4.50% notes due 2027, as “secured parties,” as defined in the security agreement, that share equally and ratably in the collateral owned by the Company for so long as indebtedness under the credit agreement is secured by such collateral.

Separation and Related Debt Activity

In connection with the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and the entry into the credit facilities described above, on May 31, 2018, the Company used net proceeds from the secured term loan B and $220 million of borrowings under the new $1.0 billion revolving credit facility to repay $484 million of outstanding principal borrowings under its revolving credit facility maturing in 2020. In addition, effective May 31, 2018, the Company terminated the $1.5 billion revolving credit facility maturing in 2020, the $400 million 364-day credit facility maturing in 2018 and the $325 million term loan maturing in 2021.

In January 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with La Quinta to acquire its hotel franchising and management businesses for $1.95 billion. At the time we entered into this agreement, we obtained financing commitments of $2.0 billion in the form of an unsecured bridge term loan, which was subsequently replaced with net cash proceeds from the issuance of $500 million unsecured notes, a $1.6 billion term loan and a $750 million revolving credit facility, which was undrawn. This acquisition closed on May 30, 2018, prior to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels. Upon completion of the spin-off, La Quinta became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wyndham Hotels and the associated debt remained debt of Wyndham Hotels for which we are not liable.

Following the spin-off, the Company’s corporate notes were downgraded by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”). Pursuant to the terms of the indentures governing the Company’s 4.15% Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), 5.10% Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”), and 4.50% Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), as a result of such notes being downgraded by S&P and Moody’s following the consummation of the spin-off, effective from October 1, 2018, the interest rate on the 2024 Notes, 2025 Notes and the 2027 Notes will be increased to 5.40%, 6.35% and 5.75% per annum, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of the indentures governing such series of notes, the interest rate on each such series of notes may be subject to future increases or decreases, as a result of future downgrades or upgrades to the credit ratings of such notes by S&P, Moody’s or a substitute rating agency.

Sierra Timeshare Conduit Renewal

On April 6, 2018, the Company renewed its securitized timeshare receivables conduit facility for a two-year period through April 2020 and increased the capacity to $800 million. Borrowings under this facility are required to be repaid as the collateralized receivables amortize, no later than May 2021.

Sierra Timeshare 2018-1 Receivables Funding, LLC

On April 18, 2018, the Company closed on a private placement of a series of term notes payable, issued by Sierra Timeshare 2018-1 Receivables Fundings, LLC, with an initial principal amount of $350 million, which are secured by vacation ownership contract receivables and bear interest at a weighted average coupon rate of 3.73%. The advance rate for this transaction was 90.00%.

Sierra Timeshare 2018-2 Receivables Funding LLC

On July 18, 2018, the Company closed on a placement of a series of term notes payable, issued by Sierra Timeshare 2018-2 Receivables Funding, LLC, with an initial principal amount of $500 million, which are secured by vacation ownership contract receivables and bear interest at a weighted average coupon rate of 3.65%. The advance rate for this transaction was 88.65%.

Commercial Paper

The Company terminated its European and U.S. commercial paper programs during the first and second quarter of 2018, respectively. Prior to termination, the U.S. and European commercial paper programs had total capacities of $750 million and $500 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these programs. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $147 million at a weighted average interest rate of 2.34% under its U.S. commercial paper program.

Fair Value Hedges

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company entered into pay-variable/receive-fixed interest rate swap agreements on its 4.50% senior unsecured notes with notional amounts of $400 million. The fixed interest rate on these notes was effectively modified to a variable LIBOR-based index. As of September 30, 2018, the variable interest rate on the notional portion of the 4.50% senior unsecured notes was 4.42%.

During 2013, the Company entered into pay-variable/receive-fixed interest rate swap agreements on its 3.90% and 4.25% senior unsecured notes with notional amounts of $400 million and $100 million, respectively. The fixed interest rates on these notes were effectively modified to a variable LIBOR-based index. During May 2015, the Company terminated the swap agreements resulting in a gain of $17 million, which is being amortized over the remaining life of the senior unsecured notes as a reduction to interest expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company has $8 million and $9 million of deferred gains as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 which are included within debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Maturities and Capacity

The Company’s outstanding debt as of September 30, 2018 matures as follows:

	Non-recourse Vacation Ownership Debt		Debt		Total
Within 1 year	$	237	$	48	$	285
Between 1 and 2 years	512		44		556
Between 2 and 3 years	418		252		670
Between 3 and 4 years	163		652		815
Between 4 and 5 years	176		677		853
Thereafter	684		1,296		1,980
	$	2,190	$	2,969	$	5,159

Required principal payments on the non-recourse vacation ownership debt are based on the contractual repayment terms of the underlying vacation ownership contract receivables. Actual maturities may differ as a result of prepayments by the vacation ownership contract receivable obligors.

28

As of September 30, 2018, available capacity under the Company’s borrowing arrangements was as follows:

	Non-recourse Conduit Facilities (a)		Revolving Credit Facilities (b)
Total capacity	$	1,550	$	1,000
Less: Outstanding borrowings	741		269
Less: Letters of credit	—		35
Available capacity	$	809	$	696

^(a)  Consists of the Company’s Sierra Receivable Funding Conduit II 2008-A and Sierra Receivable Funding Conduit III 2017-A facilities. The capacity of these facilities is subject to the Company’s ability to provide additional assets to collateralize additional non-recourse borrowings.

^(b)  Consists of the Company’s $1.0 billion revolving credit facility.

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. Commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2018, 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 September 30, 2018, our interest coverage ratio was 6.1 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 September 30, 2018, 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 September 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants described above.

Each of our non-recourse term securitizations and bank conduit facilities contain certain tests based on default, delinquency and overcollateralization rates of the loan pool that collateralizes such non-recourse financing. If a loan pool is not in compliance with those tests, the cash flows for that loan pool will be retained as extra collateral for such financing or applied to accelerate the repayment of outstanding principal to the note holders. As of September 30, 2018, all of our loan pools were in compliance with the applicable tests.

Interest Expense

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred interest expense of $37 million and $129 million, respectively, on debt excluding non-recourse vacation ownership debt, including offset of less than $1 million and $1 million of capitalized interest, respectively. Such amounts are included within interest expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash paid related to such interest was $128 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred interest expense of $40 million and $114 million, respectively, on debt excluding non-recourse vacation ownership debt, including offset of less than $1 million and $1 million of capitalized interest, respectively. Such amounts are included within interest expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash paid related to such interest was $117 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Interestexpense incurred in connection with the Company’s non-recourse vacation ownership debt during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $23 million and $62 million, respectively, and $17 million and $54 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, and is recorded within consumer financing interest on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash paid related to such interest was $41 million and $37 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

10. 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”) and equity

29

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 receivables and sells them to bankruptcy-remote entities. Vacation ownership contract receivables qualify for securitization based primarily on the credit strength of the VOI purchaser to whom financing has been extended. Vacation ownership contract receivables 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. The Company services the securitized vacation ownership contract receivables 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 receivables 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 have no recourse to the Company for principal and interest.

The assets and liabilities of these vacation ownership SPEs are as follows:

	September 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Securitized contract receivables, gross (a)	$	2,587	$	2,553
Securitized restricted cash (b)	140		106
Interest receivables on securitized contract receivables (c)	21		22
Other assets (d)	4		4
Total SPE assets	2,752		2,685
Non-recourse term notes (e) (f)	1,449		1,219
Non-recourse conduit facilities (e)	741		879
Other liabilities (g)	2		2
Total SPE liabilities	2,192		2,100
SPE assets in excess of SPE liabilities	$	560	$	585

^(a)  Included in vacation ownership contract receivables, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

^(b)  Included in other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

^(c)  Included in trade receivables, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

^(d)  Primarily includes deferred financing costs for the bank conduit facility and a security investment asset, which is included in other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

^(e)  Included in non-recourse vacation ownership debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

^(f)  Includes deferred financing costs of $17 million and $15 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, related to non-recourse debt

^(g)  Primarily includes accrued interest on non-recourse debt, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In addition, the Company has vacation ownership contract receivables that have not been securitized through bankruptcy-remote SPEs. Such gross receivables were $1.15 billion and $1.04 billion as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

30

A summary of total vacation ownership contract receivables and other securitized assets, net of non-recourse liabilities and the allowance for loan losses, is as follows:

	September 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
SPE assets in excess of SPE liabilities	$	560	$	585
Non-securitized contract receivables	1,145		1,039
Less: Allowance for loan losses	743		691
Total, net	$	962	$	933

In addition to restricted cash related to securitizations, the Company had $74 million and $65 million of restricted cash related to escrow deposits as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, which are recorded within other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Clearwater, FLProperty

During 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party partner whereby the partner would develop and construct VOI inventory through a SPE. During the first quarter of 2017, the third-party partner met certain conditions of the agreement, which resulted in the Company committing to purchase $51 million of VOI inventory from the SPE over a two-year period. Such proceeds from the purchase will be used by the SPE to repay its mortgage notes related to the property. The Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary for specified assets and liabilities of the SPE and, therefore, the Company consolidated $51 million of both property and equipment and other debt on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin IslandsProperty

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 has 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 has not sold the property to another party.

During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company became 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 resulting from the impact of the third quarter 2017 hurricanes.

The assets and liabilities of the Clearwater, FL Property and Saint Thomas Property SPEs are as follows:

	September 30, 2018			December 31, 2017
Property and equipment, net	$	32		$	90
Total SPE assets	32			90
Debt (a)	42			131
Total SPE liabilities	42			131
SPE deficit	$	(10	)	$	(41	)

^(a)  Included $42 million and $131 million relating to mortgage notes, which were included in Debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the SPE conveyed $17 million and $30 million, respectively, of property and equipment to the Company.

11. 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.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had interest rate swap contracts resulting in $21 million of liabilities which are included within other liabilities and foreign exchange contracts resulting in less than $1 million of assets which are included within other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. On a recurring basis, such assets and liabilities are remeasured at estimated fair value (all of which are Level 2) and thus are equal to the carrying value.

The Company’s derivative instruments primarily consist of pay-fixed/receive-variable interest rate swaps, pay-variable/receive-fixed interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and foreign exchange forward contracts. 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 carrying amounts and estimated fair values of all other financial instruments are as follows:

	September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying  Amount		Estimated Fair Value
Assets
Vacation ownership contract receivables, net	$	2,989	$	3,629	$	2,901	$	3,489
Debt
Total debt	$	5,159	$	5,119	$	6,006	$	6,084

The Company estimates the fair value of its vacation ownership contract receivables 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. The Company estimates the fair value of its debt, excluding capital leases, using Level 2 inputs based on indicative bids from investment banks and determines the fair value of its senior notes using quoted market prices (such senior notes are not actively traded).

12. 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 British pound, Euro, Canadian and Australian dollars, and Mexican peso. 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, forecasted earnings of foreign subsidiaries and intercompany borrowings that are denominated in currencies other than the Company’s underlying functional currency.

Additionally, the Company uses 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. Gains and losses relating to freestanding foreign currency contracts are included in operating expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and are substantially offset by the earnings effect from the underlying items that were economically hedged. The freestanding foreign currency contracts resulted in a less than $1 million gain and $1 million of loss during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The freestanding foreign currency contracts resulted in $3 million and $1 million of gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The amount of gains or losses relating to contracts designated as cash flow hedges that the Company expects to reclassify from AOCI 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 uses various hedging strategies and derivative financial instruments to create a desired mix of fixed and floating rate assets and liabilities. Derivative instruments currently used in these hedging strategies include swaps and interest rate caps. The derivatives used to manage the risk associated with the Company’s floating rate debt include freestanding derivatives and derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. The Company also uses swaps to convert specific fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt (i.e., fair value hedges) to manage the overall interest cost. For relationships designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded in income with offsetting adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged debt. The amount of gains or losses that the Company expects to reclassify from AOCI to earnings during the next 12 months is not material.

Losses on derivatives recognized in AOCI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were not material.

13. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and state jurisdictions, as well as in foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2014. In addition, with few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state, local or foreign income tax examinations for years prior to 2009.

The Company’s effective tax rate decreased from 37.8% during the three months ended September 30, 2017 to 28.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to the tax benefit from the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate reduction resulting from the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

The Company’s effective tax rate increased from 22.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to 41.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to (i) the absence of tax benefit on foreign currency losses recognized from an internal restructuring undertaken to realign the organizational and capital structure of certain foreign operations during 2017, (ii) non-cash state tax charges associated with the separation of the hotel business, (iii) non-cash tax charges from certain internal restructurings associated with the sale of its European vacation rentals business during 2018; partially offset by (iv) tax benefit from the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate reduction resulting from the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

The Company made cash income tax payments, net of refunds, of $101 million and $200 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In addition, the Company made cash income tax payments, net of refunds, of $10 million and $17 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, related to discontinued operations.

33

The Company has not made any additional measurement-period adjustments related to the impact from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act recorded for 2017 during this quarter. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company filed its U.S. federal income tax return and is preparing and filing returns for other jurisdictions that will be filed by the end of the year. As a result, the Company will be analyzing the impact on its estimates from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act recorded in 2017, and will record these adjustments during the fourth quarter of 2018.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries related to the Company’s business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material effect on our 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 exchange & 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, 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 period 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 $14 million and $25 millionas ofSeptember 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Such reserves are exclusive of matters relating to the Company’s separation from Cendant, which is discussed in Note 21—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. However, litigation 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 September 30, 2018, the potential exposure resulting from adverse outcomes of such legal proceedings could, in the aggregate, range up to $50 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.

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 (see Note 8—Inventory).

In connection with the Company’s vacation ownership inventory sale transactions, for which it has conditional rights and conditional obligations to repurchase the completed properties, the Company was required to maintain an investment-grade credit rating from at least one rating agency. As a result of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels, the Company failed to maintain an investment-grade credit rating with at least one rating agency, which triggered a default. The Company agreed to pay $8 million in fees in lieu of posting collateral in favor of the development partner in an amount equal to the remaining obligations under the agreements.

For information on guarantees and indemnifications related to the Company’s former parent and subsidiaries see Note 21—Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries.

16.   Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan available to grant RSUs, PSUs, SSARs, non-qualified stock options (“NQs”) and other stock-based awards to key employees, non-employee directors, advisors and consultants.

The Wyndham Worldwide Corporation 2006 Equity and Incentive Plan was originally adopted in 2006 and was amended and restated in its entirety and approved by shareholders on May 17, 2018 (the “Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan”). Under the Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan, a maximum of 15.7 million shares of common stock may be awarded. As of September 30, 2018, 14.8 million shares remain available.

Incentive Equity Awards Granted by the Company

In connection with the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels, the Company accelerated vesting of all Wyndham Worldwide Corporation RSUs granted through the year ended December 31, 2017. Wyndham Destinations RSUs held by Wyndham Hotels employees vested upon separation and RSUs held by Wyndham Destination employees will vest on November 30, 2018 in accordance with their terms.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company granted incentive equity awards to key employees and senior officers totaling $58 million in the form of RSUs and $7 million in the form of stock options. Of these awards, $22 million of RSUs will vest ratably over a period of 16 months, and the remaining RSUs and stock options will vest ratably over a period of 48 months.

17. Segment Information

As a result of the completion of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels, the Company now has two operating segments: Vacation Ownership and Exchange & Rentals. The Vacation Ownership segment 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 Exchange & Rentals segment provides vacation exchange services and products to owners of VOIs and manages and markets vacation rental properties primarily on behalf of independent owners. The reportable segments presented below represent the Company’s operating segments for which discrete financial information is available and which is utilized on a regular basis by its chief operating decision maker to assess performance and to allocate resources. In identifying its reportable segments, the Company also considers the nature of services provided by its operating segments. The Company updated its segment reporting beginning in the second quarter of 2018 to include Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, whereas in the past EBITDA was presented. Following the completion of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and the sale of the European vacation rental business, management uses net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance review of the reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (excluding consumer financing interest), early extinguishment of debt, interest income (excluding consumer financing revenues) and income taxes, each of which is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation costs, separation and restructuring costs, transaction costs, impairments, and items that meet the conditions of unusual and/or infrequent. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of performance for its segments which, when considered with GAAP measures, the Company believes it gives a more complete understanding of its operating performance. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the information presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

18. Separation and Transaction Costs

On May 31, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of its hotel business. This transaction resulted in operations being held by two separate, publicly traded companies as discussed in Note 1—Background and Basis of Presentation. Prior to the spin-off, the Company completed the sale of its European vacation rentals business.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred $35 million and $198 million of expenses, respectively, in connection with the spin-off of the hotel business which are reflected within continuing operations and include related costs of the spin-off, of which $30 million and $191 million were related to stock compensation modification expense, severance and other employee costs offset, in part, by favorable foreign currency. In addition, these costs include certain impairment charges related to the separation including property sold to Wyndham Hotels.

Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred $93 million of separation related expenses in connection with the hotel spin-off and $19 million of transaction costs related to the European vacation rentals business. These expenses are reflected within discontinued operations and include legal, consulting and auditing fees, stock compensation modification expense, severance, and other employee-related costs.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred $16 million of expenses associated with the planned spin-off of the hotel business and the exploration of strategic alternatives for the European vacation rentals business which are reflected within continuing operations. Additionally, during this same time period the Company incurred $8 million of separation related costs that are included within discontinued operations. These costs include legal, consulting and auditing fees, stock compensation modification expense, severance, and other employee-related costs.

19. Restructuring

2017 Restructuring Plans

During 2017, the Company recorded $14 million of restructuring charges, all of which were personnel-related and consisted of (i) $8 million at its Exchange & Rentals segment which primarily focused on enhancing organizational efficiency and rationalizing its operations and (ii) $6 million at its corporate operations which focused on rationalizing its sourcing function and outsourcing certain information technology functions. During 2018, the Company reduced its restructuring liability with $4 million of cash payments. The remaining liability of less than $1 million, as of September 30, 2018, is expected to be paid by the end of 2018.

The Company has additional restructuring plans which were implemented prior to 2017. The remaining liability of $1 million as of September 30, 2018, which is related to leased facilities, is expected to be paid by 2020.

The activity associated with the Company’s restructuring plans is summarized by category as follows:

	$	5	$	(4	)	$	1

20. Impairments

During May 2017, the Company performed an in-depth review of its operations, including its current development pipeline and long-term development plan. In connection with such review, the Company updated its current and long-term development plan to focus on (i) selling existing finished inventory and (ii) procuring inventory from efficient sources such as just-in-time inventory in new markets and reclaiming inventory from owners’ associations or owners. As a result, the Company’s management performed a review of its land held for VOI development. Such review consisted of an assessment on 19 locations to determine its plan for future VOI development at those sites. As a result of this assessment, the Company concluded that no future development would occur at 17 locations, of which 16 were deemed to be impaired.

The Company performed a fair value assessment on the land held for VOI development which resulted in a $121 million non-cash impairment charge during the second quarter of 2017. In addition, the Company recorded a $14 million non-cash impairment charge relating to the write-off of construction in process costs at 6 of the 16 impaired locations. As a result, the Company reported a total non-cash impairment charge of $135 million, which is included within asset impairments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

In conjunction with this review and impairment, in May 2017, the Company sold 3 of the 17 locations, as well as non-core revenue generating assets to a former executive of the Company for $2 million of cash consideration which resulted in a $7 million loss. The Company also has an agreement with the former executive to sell an additional 2 of the 17 locations for $2 million resulting in a $13 million non-cash impairment charge. Such transaction is to be completed no later than December 31, 2018. The $7 million loss and $13 million non-cash impairment charge on the expected sale were included within the total non-cash impairment charge of $135 million.

During the third quarter of 2018, the Company sold a property located in Las Vegas, Nevada which was previously impaired by $27 million as part of the aforementioned fair value assessment on the land held for VOI development during the second quarter of 2017. The Company received net proceeds of $11 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $8 million, which is included within asset impairments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

As a result of changes in market conditions, the Company updated its long-term development goals during the third quarter of 2018 which resulted in $4 million of additional impairment charges on previously impaired properties. This additional impairment expense and the Las Vegas property impairment reversal, resulted in a net impairment reversal of $4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred a $5 million non-cash impairment charge related to the write-down of assets resulting from the decision to abandon a new product initiative at the Company’s vacation ownership business. This charge was recorded within asset impairments on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

Refer to Note 18—Separation and Transaction Costsfor discussion of the additional 2018 impairment associated with the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels.

21. Transactions with Former Parent andFormer Subsidiaries

Matters Related to Cendant

Pursuant to the Cendant Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into certain guarantee commitments with Cendant and Cendant’s former subsidiary, Realogy. These guarantee arrangements primarily relate to certain contingent litigation liabilities, contingent tax liabilities, and Cendant contingent and other corporate liabilities, of which Wyndham Worldwide assumed 37.5% of the responsibility while Cendant’s former subsidiary Realogy is responsible for the remaining 62.5%. As a result of the Wyndham Worldwide separation, Wyndham Hotels agreed to retain one third of

41

Cendant’s contingent and other corporate liabilities and associated costs; therefore, Wyndham Destinations is effectively responsible for 25% of such matters subsequent to the separation. Since Cendant’s separation, Cendant settled the majority of the lawsuits pending on the date of the separation.

As of September 30, 2018, the Cendant separation and related liabilities of $16 million are comprised of $13 million for tax liabilities, $1 million for other contingent and corporate liabilities and $2 million of liabilities where the calculated guarantee amount exceeded the contingent liability assumed at the separation date. These liabilities were recorded within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had $16 million of Cendant separation-related liabilities, which were recorded within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Matters Related to Wyndham Hotels

In connection with the spin-off of the hotel business on May 31, 2018, Wyndham Destinations entered into several agreements with Wyndham Hotels that govern the relationship of the parties following the distribution including the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreements, the Tax Matters Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the License, Development and Noncompetition Agreement.

In accordance with these agreements, Wyndham Hotels assumed one-third and Wyndham Destinations assumed two-thirds of certain contingent and other corporate liabilities of the Company incurred prior to the distribution, including liabilities of the Company related to certain terminated or divested businesses, certain general corporate matters, and any actions with respect to the separation plan. Likewise, Wyndham Hotels is entitled to receive one-third and Wyndham Destinations is entitled to receive two-thirds of the proceeds from certain contingent and other corporate assets of the Company arising or accrued prior to the distribution.

The Company conveyed the lease for its former corporate headquarters located in Parsippany, New Jersey to Wyndham Hotels, which resulted in the removal of a $66 million capital lease obligation and a $43 million asset.

Wyndham Destinations entered into a transition service agreement with Wyndham Hotels, pursuant to which the companies agreed to provide each other certain transitional services including human resources, facilities, payroll, tax, information technology, information management and related services, treasury, finance, sourcing, and employee benefits administration on an interim, transitional basis.

Matters Related to the European Vacation Rentals Business

In connection with the sale of the Company’s European vacation rentals business, the Company and Wyndham Hotels agreed to certain post-closing credit support for the benefit of certain credit card service providers, a British travel association, and certain regulatory authorities to allow them to continue providing services or regulatory approval to the business. Such post-closing credit support included a guarantee of up to $180 million through June 30, 2019, which has an estimated fair value of $2 million. Such post-closing credit support may be called if the business fails to meet its primary obligation to pay amounts when due. The Buyer has provided an indemnification to Wyndham Destinations in the event that the post-closing credit support (other than the guarantee by Wyndham Destinations of up to $180 million) is enforced or called upon.

At closing, the Company agreed to provide additional post-closing credit support to a British travel association and regulatory authorities by September 30, 2018. An escrow was established at closing and a portion of it was subsequently agreed to be released in exchange for a secured bonding facility and a perpetual guarantee of $46 million. One-third of the $46 million escrow release is payable to Wyndham Hotels pending potential post-closing adjustments. The estimated fair value of the guarantee was $22 million at September 30, 2018. The Company established a $7 million receivable, representing the amount that would be due from Wyndham Hotels, which resulted in an $8 million reduction in retained earnings.

The Company also deposited $5 million into an escrow account, which will be returned to the Company on May 9, 2019, if the gross limit of the Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”) pound sterling cash pooling arrangement with the Buyer remains at least £10 million and security is not demanded by Barclays. If any further security is demanded by Barclays, the Company must pay an additional £1 million into the escrow account.

42

In addition, the Company agreed to indemnify the Buyer against certain claims and assessments, including income tax, value-added tax and other tax matters, related to the operations of the European vacation rentals business for the periods prior to the transaction. The estimated fair value of the indemnifications total $43 million at September 30, 2018.

Wyndham Hotels provided certain post-closing credit support primarily for the benefit of a British travel association in the form of guarantees which are primarily denominated in Pound sterling of up to an approximate $81 million on a perpetual basis. The estimated fair value of such guarantees was $41 million at September 30, 2018. Wyndham Destinations is responsible for two-thirds of these guarantees. Wyndham Hotels is required to maintain minimum credit ratings of Ba2 for Moody’s and BB for S&P. If Wyndham Hotels drops below these minimum credit ratings, Wyndham Destinations would be required to post a letter of credit (or equivalent support) for the amount of the Wyndham Hotels guarantee.  

The estimated fair value of the guarantees and indemnifications for which Wyndham Destinations is responsible related to the sale of the European vacation rentals business, including the two-thirds portion related to guarantees provided by Wyndham Hotels, totaled $96 million and was recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities at September 30, 2018. A receivable of $23 million was included in other assets at September 30, 2018 representing the portion of these guarantees and indemnifications for which Wyndham Hotels is responsible.

During the third quarter of 2018, Compass IV Limited, an affiliate of Platinum Equity, LLC, proposed certain post-closing adjustments netting to approximately $60 million which could serve to reduce the net consideration received from the sale of the European vacation rentals business. While the Company intends to vigorously dispute these proposed adjustments, at this time we cannot reasonably estimate the probability or amount of the potential liability owed to Compass IV Limited, if any. Any actual liability would be split two-thirds and one-third between the Company and Wyndham Hotels, respectively, and the impact would be included in discontinued operations.

22. Related Party Transactions

During August 2018, the Company provided notification to the owner trustee of its intent to exercise the purchase option for the company aircraft at fair market value. In connection with that purchase, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the company aircraft to its former CEO and current Chairman of the Board at a price equivalent to the purchase price.

23. Subsequent Events

Sierra Timeshare 2018-3 Receivables Funding LLC

On October 17, 2018, the Company closed on the placement of a series of term notes payable, issued by Sierra Timeshare 2018-3 Receivables Funding, LLC with an aggregate principle amount of $350 million maturing in September 2035. These notes are secured by vacation ownership contract receivables, and bear interest at a weighted average coupon rate of 4.02%. The advance rate for this transaction was 98%. The recourse on these notes is limited to the extent of the collateral. No other assets of the Company will be available to pay the notes.

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.

• Exchange & Rentals—provides vacation exchange services and products to owners of VOIs and manages and markets vacation rental properties primarily on behalf of independent owners.

Hotel Business Spin-off

We completed the spin-off of our hotel business on May 31, 2018, which resulted in our operations being held by two separate, publicly traded companies. The two public companies have entered into long-term exclusive license agreements to retain their affiliations with one of the industry’s top-rated loyalty programs, Wyndham Rewards, as well as to continue to collaborate on inventory-sharing and customer cross-sell initiatives. This transaction is expected to result in enhanced strategic and management focus on the core business and growth of each company; more efficient capital allocation, direct access to capital and expanded growth opportunities for each company; the ability to implement a tailored approach to recruiting and retaining employees at each company; improved investor understanding of the business strategy and operating results of each company; and enhanced investor choice by offering investment opportunities in separate entities. This transaction was effected through a pro rata distribution of the new hotel entity’s stock to existing Wyndham Destinations shareholders. The new hotel company was named Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (“Wyndham Hotels”).

As a result of this spin-off, we have classified the results of operations of our hotel business as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

European Vacation Rentals Business

In February 2018, we entered into an agreement for the sale of our European vacation rentals business for $1.23 billion. This sale closed on May 9, 2018. As a result of this sale, the Company received net proceeds of $1.03 billion during the second quarter and reached an agreement with the Buyer to release $46 million of its escrow deposit in October resulting in the recognition of a cumulative after-tax gain of $452 million. We have agreed to provide certain post-closing credit support in order to ensure that the Buyer meets the requirements of certain service providers and regulatory authorities. The results of

44

operations of this business have been classified as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements unless otherwise noted. For further details see Note 6—Discontinued Operations.

La Quinta Acquisition

In January 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with La Quinta to acquire its hotel franchising and management businesses for $1.95 billion. At the time we entered into this agreement, we obtained financing commitments of $2.0 billion in the form of an unsecured bridge term loan, which was subsequently replaced with net cash proceeds from the issuance of $500 million unsecured notes, a $1.6 billion term loan and a $750 million revolving credit facility, which was undrawn. This acquisition closed on May 30, 2018, prior to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels. Upon completion of the spin-off, La Quinta became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wyndham Hotels and the associated debt was transferred to Wyndham Hotels.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As a result of the completion of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels, the Company now has two operating segments: Vacation Ownership and Exchange & Rentals. The Vacation Ownership segment 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 Exchange & Rentals segment provides vacation exchange services and products to owners of VOIs and manages and markets vacation rental properties primarily on behalf of independent owners. The reportable segments presented below represent the Company’s operating segments for which discrete financial information is available and which is utilized on a regular basis by its chief operating decision maker to assess performance and to allocate resources. In identifying its reportable segments, the Company also considers the nature of services provided by its operating segments. The Company updated its segment reporting beginning in the second quarter of 2018 to include Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, whereas in the past EBITDA was presented. Following the completion of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and the sale of the European vacation rental business, management uses net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance review of the reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (excluding consumer financing interest), early extinguishment of debt, interest income (excluding consumer financing revenues) and income taxes, each of which is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation costs, separation and restructuring costs, transaction costs, impairments, and items that meet the conditions of unusual and/or infrequent. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of performance for its segments which, when considered with GAAP measures, the Company believes it gives a more complete understanding of its operating performance. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the information presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

OPERATING STATISTICS

The table below presents our operating statistics for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. These operating statistics are the drivers of our revenues and therefore provide an enhanced understanding of our businesses. Refer to the Results of Operations section for a discussion on how these operating statistics affected our business for the periods presented.

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2018		2017		% Change
Vacation Ownership
Gross VOI sales (in 000s) (a) (g)	$	640,000	$	600,000	6.7
Tours (in 000s) (b)	259		247		4.9

Exchange revenue per member (d)(f)	$	163.84	$	172.43	(5.0)

^(a)  Represents total sales of VOIs, including sales under the Fee-for-Service program before the effect of loan loss provisions. We believe that Gross VOI sales provide an enhanced understanding of the performance of our vacation ownership business because it directly measures the sales volume of this business during a given reporting period.

^(b)  Represents the number of tours taken by guests in our efforts to sell VOIs.

^(c)  VPG is calculated by dividing Gross VOI sales (excluding tele-sales upgrades, which are non-tour upgrade sales) by the number of tours. Tele-sales upgrades were $31 million and $32 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We have excluded tele-sales upgrades in the calculation of VPG because tele-sales upgrades are generated by a different marketing channel. We believe that VPG provides an enhanced understanding of the performance of our vacation ownership business because it directly measures the efficiency of this business’s tour selling efforts during a given reporting period.

^(d)  Includes the impact from acquisitions from the acquisition dates forward.

^(e)  Represents members in our vacation exchange programs who paid annual membership dues as of the end of the period or who are within the allowed grace period.

^(f)  Represents total annualized revenues generated from fees associated with memberships, exchange transactions, member-related rentals and other servicing for the period divided by the average number of vacation exchange members during the period.

^(g)  The following table provides a reconciliation of Gross VOI sales to vacation ownership interest sales for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 (in millions):

	2018			2017
Gross VOI sales	$	640		$	600
Less: Fee-for-Service sales (1)	(5		)	(11		)
Gross VOI sales, net of Fee-for-Service sales	635			589
Less: Loan loss provision	(132		)	(123		)
Vacation ownership interest sales	$	503		$	466

⁽¹⁾  Represents total sales of VOIs through our Fee-for-Service program designed to offer turn-key solutions for developers or banks in possession of newly developed inventory, which we will sell for a commission fee through our extensive sales and marketing channels. Fee-for-Service commission revenues were $4 million and $8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These commissions are reported within Service and membership fees on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Net income	$	148		$	264		$	(116	)

Net revenues increased $47 million (4.6%) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net revenues by $6 million. Excluding foreign currency, the increase in net revenues was primarily the result of:

• $56 million of higher revenues at our vacation ownership business primarily resulting from an increase in net VOI sales and consumer financing revenues; partially offset by

• $3 million of decreased revenues at our exchange & rentals business primarily driven by lower exchange inventory levels and a change in customer mix.

Expenses increased $34 million (4.1%) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year. Foreign currency favorably impacted expenses by $5 million. Excluding the foreign currency impact, the increase in expenses was primarily the result of:

• $26 million increase in operating expenses related to higher revenues,

• $19 million increase in separation costs related to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels,

• $4 million additional impairment on previously impaired properties; partially offset by

• $8 million impairment reversal related to gain on sale of previously impaired land; and

• $8 million decrease in restructuring costs.

Other income, net of other expenses increased by $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year, primarily due to the refund of value-added taxes; partially offset by the prior year gain related to the Love Home Swap acquisition.

Interest expense decreased $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year primarily due to the absence of interest related to the $450 million 2.50% senior unsecured note which was repaid in March 2018 for which there was no equivalent debt issuance.

Our effective tax rates were 28.0% and 37.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the tax benefit from the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate reduction resulting from the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 reflect the negative impact of the hurricane Florence which occurred in the third quarter of 2018. We estimate that hurricane Florence reduced our revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, and net income by $13 million, $10 million, and $7 million, respectively.

47

Income on disposal of discontinued businesses, net of income taxes was $20 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as a result of the Buyer agreeing to release funds held in escrow related to the sale of the European vacation rentals business, partially offset by the fair value of a related guarantee provided by the Company.

As a result of these items, net income decreased by $116 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same period last year.

Vacation Ownership

Net revenues increased $52 million (6.8%) and Adjusted EBITDA increased $9 million (4.6%) during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period of 2017. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net revenues by $4 million and Adjusted EBITDA by less than $1 million. Increases in net revenues were primarily driven by:

• $46 million increase in gross VOI sales, net of Fee-for-Service sales, primarily due to a 7.8% increase in sales driven by a 4.9% increase in tours, reflecting our continued focus on new owner generation, and a 2.2% increase in VPG; partially offset by a $9 million increase in our provision for loan losses due to higher gross VOI sales and an increase in percentage of financed sales;

• $11 million increase in property management revenues primarily due to higher management fees, and

• $7 million increase in consumer financing revenues primarily due to a higher weighted average interest rate earned on a larger average portfolio balance; partially offset by

• $4 million decrease in commission revenues as a result of lower Fee-for-Service VOI sales.

In addition to the drivers mentioned above, Adjusted EBITDA was further impacted by:

• $26 million increase in marketing costs due to our emphasis on adding new owners, which typically carry a higher cost per tour, and an increase in licensing fees for the use of the Wyndham tradename;

• $13 million of higher sales and commission expenses primarily due to higher gross VOI sales;

• $12 million increase in the cost of VOIs sold primarily driven by higher gross VOI sales;

• $6 million increase in consumer financing interest expense resulting from an increase in the weighted average interest rate on our non-recourse debt; and

• $5 million increase in property management operating expenses.

Such decreases in Adjusted EBITDA were partially offset by:

• $11 million of lower maintenance fees on unsold inventory; and

• $5 million of lower employee-related costs; and

• $3 million decrease in commission expense as a result of lower Fee-for-Service VOI sales.

Exchange & Rentals

Net revenues decreased $5 million (2.0%) and Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1 million (1.3%) during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period during 2017. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net revenues by $2 million and had no impact on Adjusted EBITDA. Our acquisitions contributed $3 million of incremental revenues and had no impact on Adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter of 2018.

Decreases in net revenues excluding the impact of currency were primarily driven by:

• $3 million decrease in exchange and related service revenues primarily driven by lower inventory levels and a change in customer mix; and

• $2 million decrease in net revenues generated from vacation rental transactions and related services, partially offset by

• $2 million increase in ancillary revenues.

In addition, Adjusted EBITDA included:

• $7 million of cost savings related to overhead and operations; partially offset by

• $4 million negative net impact from the absence of proceeds received for business interruption insurance claims and other legal settlements in 2017; and

• $3 million of incremental costs due to acquisitions.

Corporate and Other

Corporate Adjusted EBITDA increased $8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to 2017 primarily due to lower employee-related costs.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 VS. NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017

Our consolidated results are as follows:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest	—			(1		)	1
Net income attributable to Wyndham Destinations shareholders	$	560		$	438		$	122

Net revenues increased $100 million (3.5%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net revenues by $1 million. Excluding foreign currency, the increase in net revenues was primarily the result of:

• $101 million of higher revenues at our vacation ownership business largely due to an increase in net VOI sales and consumer financing revenues; and

• $1 million of higher revenues at our exchange & rentals business primarily driven by $6 million increase in ancillary revenues primarily driven by homeowner services and transitional service agreement fees, partially offset by $4 million decrease in exchange and related service revenues primarily driven by lower inventory levels and a change in customer mix.

Expenses increased $83 million (3.3%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted expenses by less than $1 million. Excluding the foreign currency impact, the increase in expenses was primarily the result of:

• $182 million increase in separation costs related to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels;

• $42 million of increased expenses from operations related to higher revenues;

• $12 million incremental expenses related to acquisitions at our Exchange & Rentals segment; and

• $5 million increase in depreciation and amortization primarily resulting from the impact of property and equipment additions; partially offset by

• $144 million decrease driven by the non-cash impairment in 2017 for undeveloped VOI land; and

• $14 million decrease in restructuring related costs.

Other income, net of other expense increased $9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year, primarily due to the business interruption insurance claims received in 2018 related to the 2017 hurricanes and refund of value-added taxes; compared to lower prior year activity from the gain related to the Love Home Swap acquisition.

Interest expense increased $15 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period last year primarily due to an increase in the average outstanding revolving credit facility balances, less favorable debt mix, and higher interest rates.

50

Our effective tax rates were 41.2% and 22.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase was primarily due to (i) the absence of tax benefit on foreign currency losses recognized from an internal restructuring undertaken to realign the organizational and capital structure of certain foreign operations during 2017, (ii) non-cash state tax charges associated with the separation of the hotel business, (iii) non-cash tax charges from certain internal restructurings associated with the sale of its European vacation rentals business during 2018; partially offset by (iv) tax benefit from the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate reduction resulting from the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflect the negative impact of the hurricane Florence which occurred in the third quarter of 2018. We estimate that hurricane Florence reduced our revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, and net income by $13 million, $10 million, and $7 million, respectively.

Income on disposal of discontinued businesses, net of income taxes was $452 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, representing the gain on sale of the European vacation rentals business.

As a result of these items, net income attributable to Wyndham Destinations shareholders increased $122 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same period last year.

Vacation Ownership

Net revenues increased $99 million (4.6%) and Adjusted EBITDA increased $24 million (4.7%) during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period of 2017. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net revenues by $2 million and Adjusted EBITDA by $1 million. Increases in net revenues were primarily driven by:

• $92 million increase in gross VOI sales, net of Fee-for-Service sales, mainly due to a 5.8% increase in sales driven by a 4.9% increase in tours, reflecting our continued focus on new owner generation, and a 1.9% increase in VPG,

52

partially offset by a $31 million increase in our provision for loan losses due to higher gross VOI sales and the impact of higher defaults;

• $20 million increase in consumer financing revenues primarily due to a higher weighted average interest rate earned on a larger average portfolio balance;

• $9 million increase in property management revenues primarily due to higher management fees; and

• $9 million increase in commission revenues as a result of higher Fee-for-Service VOI sales.

In addition to the drivers mentioned above, Adjusted EBITDA was further impacted by:

• $53 million increase in marketing costs due to our emphasis on adding new owners, which typically carry a higher cost per tour, and an increase in licensing fees for the use of the Wyndham tradename;

• $33 million of higher sales and commission expenses primarily due to higher gross VOI sales;

• $12 million increase in the cost of VOIs sold primarily driven by higher gross VOI sales;

• $8 million increase in consumer financing interest expense resulting from an increase in the weighted average interest rate on our non-recourse debt; and

• $8 million increase in commission expenses as a result of higher Fee-for-Service VOI sales.

Such decreases in Adjusted EBITDA were partially offset by:

• $24 million of lower maintenance fees on unsold inventory;

• $12 million of decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily associated with lower employee-related costs and legal expenses; and

• $3 million received from the settlement of business interruption claims.

Exchange & Rentals

Net revenues increased $2 million (0.3%) and Adjusted EBITDA increased $6 million (2.7%) during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared with the same period during 2017. Foreign currency favorably impacted net revenues by $1 million and Adjusted EBITDA by $4 million. Our acquisitions contributed $11 million of incremental revenues and $1 million of Adjusted EBITDA loss during the first nine months of 2018.

Increases in net revenues excluding the impact of currency were primarily driven by:

• $6 million increase in ancillary revenues primarily driven by homeowner services and transitional service agreement fees; partially offset by

• $4 million decrease in exchange and related service revenues primarily driven by lower inventory levels and a change in customer mix, and

• $1 million decrease in net revenues generated from vacation rental transactions and related services.

In addition, Adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of currency included:

• $14 million of cost savings related to overhead and operations; partially offset by

• $12 million of incremental costs due to acquisitions, and

• $3 million negative net impact from the absence of legal settlement proceeds received in 2017.

Corporate and Other

Corporate Adjusted EBITDA increased $15 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to 2017 primarily due to lower employee-related costs.

RESTRUCTURING PLANS

During 2017, we incurred $14 million of personnel-related restructuring charges consisting of (i) $8 million at our Exchange & Rentals segment, primarily focused on enhancing organizational efficiency and rationalizing operations and (ii) $6 million at our corporate operations which focused on rationalizing the sourcing function and outsourcing certain information technology functions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we made $4 million of cash payments. The remaining liability of less than $1 million as of September 30, 2018 is expected to be paid by the end of 2018.

We have additional restructuring plans which were implemented prior to 2017. The remaining liability of $1 million as of September 30, 2018 related to leased facilities is expected to be paid by 2020.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Financial Condition

	September 30, 2018			December 31, 2017		Change
Total assets	$	7,132		$	10,450	$	(3,318	)
Total liabilities	$	7,641		$	9,676	$	(2,035	)
Total (deficit)/equity	$	(509	)	$	774	$	(1,283	)

Total assets decreased $3.32 billion from December 31, 2017 to September 30, 2018 primarily due to:

• $3.56 billion decrease due to the completion of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and the sale of the European vacation rentals business; partially offset by

• $116 million increase in cash primarily related to increases at our international businesses,

• $100 million increase in other assets primarily due to escrow receivable from Compass IV Limited and increase in securitized cash, and

• $88 million increase in vacation ownership contract receivables.

Total liabilities decreased $2.04 billion from December 31, 2017 to September 30, 2018 primarily due to:

• $1.42 billion decrease due to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and the sale of the European vacation rentals business,

• $939 million reduction in debt, primarily related to the repayment of the $450 million 2.5% senior unsecured notes that matured in March 2018, the termination of the revolving credit facility maturing in 2020, the term loan maturing in 2021, and the commercial paper program, partially offset by borrowings under the new revolving credit facility maturing in 2023 and term loan maturing in 2025, and

• $85 million decrease in accounts payable due to timing of purchases and payments in the normal course of business; partially offset by

• $215 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities, primarily due to increase in income taxes payable, accrued other liabilities, and guarantee liabilities, and

• $96 million increase in deferred income taxes, primarily related to installment sales of VOIs, deferred income taxes transferred to Wyndham Hotels and the deduction associated with stock-based compensation.

Total equity decreased $1.28 billion from December 31, 2017 to September 30, 2018 primarily due to:

• $1.51 billion decrease in retained earnings associated with the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels,

• $224 million treasury stock repurchases

• $151 million of dividends, and

• $56 million reduction in additional paid-in capital related to net share settlement of incentive equity awards; partially offset by

• $560 million of net income attributable to Wyndham Destinations shareholders, and

• $141 million increase in deferred compensation.

Liquidity and capital resources

Currently, our financing needs are supported by cash generated from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility as well as issuance of secured debt. In addition, we use our two bank conduit facilities and non-recourse debt borrowings to finance our vacation ownership contract receivables. We believe that our net cash from operations, cash and cash equivalents, access to our revolving credit facilities, our bank conduit facilities and continued access to the debt markets provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our ongoing cash needs.

In connection with the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and the entry into new credit facilities described in Note 9—Debt, on May 31, 2018, the Company used net proceeds from the term loan and $220 million of borrowings under the new revolving credit facility to repay $484 million of outstanding principal borrowings under its revolving credit facility maturing in 2020. In addition, effective May 31, 2018, the Company terminated its $1.5 billion revolving credit facility maturing in 2020, its $400 million 364-day credit facility maturing in 2018 and its $325 million term loan borrowings maturing in 2021.

54

Our five-year revolving credit facility, which expires in May 2023, has a total capacity of $1.0 billion. As of September 30, 2018, we had $696 million of available capacity, net of letters of credit.

The Company terminated its European and U.S. commercial paper programs during the first and second quarter of 2018, respectively. Prior to termination, the U.S. and European commercial paper programs had total capacities of $750 million and $500 million respectively. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these programs. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $147 million at a weighted average interest rate of 2.34% under its U.S. commercial paper program.

Our two-year non-recourse vacation ownership receivables bank conduit facility, with borrowing capability through April 2020, has a total capacity of $800 million and available capacity of $481 million as of September 30, 2018. Borrowings under this facility are required to be repaid as the collateralized receivables amortize, but no later than May 2021.

Our fifteen-month, $750 million non-recourse vacation ownership receivables bank conduit facility has borrowing capability through January 2019 and available capacity of $328 million as of September 30, 2018. Borrowings under this facility are required to be repaid as the collateralized receivables amortize, but no later than January 2020.

We may, from time to time, depending on market conditions and other factors, repurchase our outstanding indebtedness, whether or not such indebtedness trades above or below its face amount, for cash and/or in exchange for other securities or other consideration, in each case in open market purchases and/or privately negotiated transactions.

Such decrease was driven by a $42 million decrease in net income from continuing operations and a $36 million increase in cash utilized for working capital (net change in assets and liabilities); partially offset by a $19 million increase in non-cash items.

Net cash provided by operating activities from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $250 million compared to the same period of the prior year. Such decrease was driven by a $544 million decrease in non-cash items; partially offset by $163 million increase in net income from discontinued operations and $131 million decrease in cash utilized for working capital (net change in assets and liabilities).

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $39 million primarily due to the Love Home Swap acquisition in 2017 for which there was no equivalent acquisition in 2018, and lower additions of property and equipment in the current period.

Net cash used in investing activities from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased by $621 million. The increase was driven by $1.7 billion of net cash used to acquire La Quinta offset by $1.03 billion of cash proceeds from the sale of the European vacation rentals business.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased $1.33 billion compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to higher net borrowings of $1.06 billion, $495 million of cash transferred to Wyndham Hotels upon spin-off; partially offset by $221 million lower share repurchases.

Net cash provided by financing activities from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased $2.08 billion compared to the same period of the prior year representing the proceeds from borrowings associated with the La Quinta acquisition.

Capital Deployment

Wefocus on optimizing cash flow and seek to deploy capital for the highest possible returns. Ultimately, our business objective is to grow our business while transforming our cash and earnings profile by managing our cash streams to derive a greater proportion of Adjusted EBITDA from our Fee-for-Service businesses. 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 as grow the business through merger and acquisition activities. In addition, we intend to return cash to shareholders through the repurchase of common stock and payment of dividends.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we spent $170 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 2018, we anticipate spending between $220 million and $250 million on vacation ownership development projects. The average inventory spend on vacation ownership development projects for the five-year period 2018 through 2022 is expected to be approximately $250 million annually. After factoring in the anticipated additional average annual spending, we expect to have adequate inventory to support vacation ownership sales through at least the next four to five years.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we spent $63 million on capital expenditures primarily for information technology enhancement projects. During 2018, we anticipate spending between $110 million and $130 million on capital expenditures.

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. Additional expenditures are financed with general secured corporate borrowings, including through the use of available capacity under our revolving credit facility.

Stock Repurchase Program

On August 20, 2007, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program that enables us to purchase our common stock. The Board of Directors 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.

56

Under our current stock repurchase program, we repurchased 3.6 million shares at an average price of $61.02 for a cost of $224 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The average price was impacted by five months of higher per share price prior to the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels and four months of lower per share price post-spin.

Dividends

During the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018, we paid cash dividends of $0.66, $0.41 and $0.41 per share, respectively ($154 million in aggregate). Cash dividends per share were reduced ratably in the second quarter as a result of the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels. During each of the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017 we paid cash dividends of $0.58 per share ($184 million in aggregate).

Our ongoing dividend policy is to grow our dividend at the rate of growth of our earnings at a minimum, with the exception of the adjustment during the second quarter as a result of the separation. The declaration and payment 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. Commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2018, 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 September 30, 2018, our interest coverage ratio was 6.1 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 September 30, 2018, 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 September 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants described above.

Each of our non-recourse term securitizations and bank conduit facilities contain certain tests based on default, delinquency and overcollateralization rates of the loan pool that collateralizes such non-recourse financing. If a loan pool is not in compliance with those tests, the cash flows for that loan pool will be retained as extra collateral for such financing or applied to accelerate the repayment of outstanding principal to the note holders. As of September 30, 2018, all of our loan pools were in compliance with the applicable tests.

LIQUIDITY

The Company finances certain of its vacation ownership contract receivables through (i) asset-backed bank conduit facilities and (ii) term asset-backed securitizations, all of which are non-recourse to the Company with respect to principal and interest.

We believe that our $800 million bank conduit facility, with a term through April 2020 and our $750 million bank conduit facility, with a term through January 2019, 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 sale of VOIs. As of September 30, 2018, we had $809 million of availability under these asset-backed bank conduit facilities. Any disruption to the asset-backed securities market could adversely impact our future ability to obtain asset-backed financings.

We primarily utilize surety bonds at 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 fifteen surety providers in the amount of $2.60 billion, of which we had $361 million outstanding as of September 30, 2018.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 bonding capacity is unavailable, or alternatively, if the terms and conditions and pricing of such bonding capacity are unacceptable to us, our vacation ownership business could be negatively impacted.

57

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 senior secured debt is rated Ba2 with a “stable outlook” by Moody’s Investors Service, BB- with a “positive outlook” by Standard and Poor’s, and BB- with a “stable outlook” by Fitch Rating Agency. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and is subject to revision or withdrawal by the assigning rating organization. Reference in this report to any such credit rating is intended for the limited purpose of discussing or referring to aspects of our liquidity and of our costs of funds. Any reference to a credit rating is not intended to be any guarantee or assurance of, nor should there be any undue reliance upon, any credit rating or change in credit rating, nor is any such reference intended as any inference concerning future performance, future liquidity or any future credit rating.

SEASONALITY

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net revenues and net income from sales of VOIs, management fees, vacation exchange fees and commission income earned from renting vacation properties. Revenues from sales of VOIs are generally higher in the third quarter than in other quarters due to increased leisure travel. Revenues from management fees are generally higher in the second and third quarters than in the first or fourth quarters due to increased leisure travel during the spring and summer months. 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. 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 is involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries related to the Company’s 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’s guarantees and indemnifications see Note 14—Commitments and Contingencies.

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 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 16, 2018 which includes a description of our critical accounting policies that involve subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results. For additional information see Note 3—Revenue Recognitionto the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this report for a discussion of our updated accounting policies on Revenue Recognition.

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 September 30, 2018 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 foreign currency exchange rates would have resulted in an approximate $1 million increase or decrease to the fair value of our outstanding forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which would generally be offset by an opposite effect on the underlying exposure being economically hedged.

Our variable rate borrowings, which include our term loan, senior unsecured notes synthetically converted to variable rate debt via interest rate swaps, bank conduit facility 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 September 30, 2018 was approximately $741 million in non-recourse vacation ownership debt and $943 million in corporate debt. A 100 basis point change in the underlying interest rates would result in an approximate $7 million increase or decrease in annual consumer financing interest expense and an approximate $10 million increase or decrease in our annual debt interest expense.

As such, we believe that a 10% change in interest and foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material effect on our prices, earnings, fair values and cash flows.

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 September 30, 2018, we utilized the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

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.
