DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

 

Fourth Quarter 2015 Consolidated Operating Results

 

Consolidated revenue excluding pass-throughs for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 was $127.0 million. In constant currency (defined below), consolidated revenue was $128.8 million, essentially flat compared to the fourth quarter in 2014.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was $12.3 million, lower by $3.2 million compared to the 2014 period. Diluted EPS was $0.21 compared to $0.27 in the prior year.

 

In constant currency net income attributable to common stockholders was $12.8 million and diluted EPS was $0.22. Impacting the results are $3.1 million of incremental after-tax interest expense due to the larger average debt balance and the higher rate on the senior notes compared to the revolver, and an after-tax increase of $1.0 million related to acquisition-related and restructuring costs, as well as a $2.1 million after-tax decrease in equity earnings primarily related to the recognition of pre-acquisition sales at our Maui joint-venture in 2014. These items were partly offset by lower sales and marketing expenses in our Exchange and Rental segment and an improved gross margin contribution from our Vacation Ownership segment on a comparative basis.

 

Adjusted net income (defined below) for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 was $15.6 million and, in constant currency, was $16.1 million. Adjusted diluted EPS increased 3.8% to $0.27 compared to 2014 and on a constant currency basis increased 7.7% year-over-year to $0.28. The incremental after-tax interest expense related to the refinancing of the revolver with senior notes impacted diluted EPS by $0.03. Excluding this incremental expense, adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders for the quarter would have been $18.5 million and diluted EPS would have been $0.32, and in constant currency these would have been $19.0 million and $0.33, respectively.

 

Adjusted EBITDA (defined below) for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 was $41.1 million, a 12.5% increase from $36.5 million for the same period of 2014. On a constant currency basis, adjusted EBITDA was $41.7 million, an increase of 14.0% over the prior year.

 

Full Year 2015 Consolidated Operating Results

 

Consolidated revenue excluding pass-throughs for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $545.6 million and in constant currency was $556.4 million, an increase of 10.8% compared to 2014.

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $73.3 million, lower by $5.6 million compared to 2014. Diluted EPS was $1.26 compared to $1.36 in the prior year. In constant currency, diluted EPS was $1.32 and net income attributable to common stockholders was $76.4 million. Impacting these results is $8.8 million of incremental after-tax interest expense due to the larger average debt balance and the higher rate on the senior notes issued compared to the revolver, partly offset by improved operating income contribution from the Exchange and Rental segment, lower taxes and an increase in other non-operating income driven by a higher net gain on foreign currency exchange.

 

Adjusted net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $76.4 million and, in constant currency, was $79.5 million. Adjusted diluted EPS was $1.32 and on a constant currency basis was $1.37. The incremental after-tax interest expense related to the refinancing of the revolver with senior notes impacted diluted EPS by $0.09. Excluding this incremental expense, adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders for the year would have been $81.8 million and diluted EPS would have been $1.41, and in constant currency would have been $84.9 million and $1.46, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $184.9 million, a 7.1% increase from $172.7 million for the same period of 2014. On a constant currency basis, adjusted EBITDA was $188.5 million, an increase of 9.2% over the prior year.

 

Business Segment Results

 

Exchange and Rental

 

Exchange and Rental segment revenue excluding pass-throughs for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $407 million, an increase of nearly 2% compared to 2014. The increase is primarily due to revenue attributable to our Hyatt Residence Club (HRC) business — acquired in October 2014 — which contributed an increase of $7.4 million in other revenue, as well as higher rental management revenue of $2.2 million.

 

For 2015, membership fee revenue (defined below) was $126.2 million, a decrease of 0.9% compared to 2014, and transaction revenue (defined below) was $192.2 million, flat compared with the prior year reflecting incremental HRC transactions and higher average transaction fees, largely offset by lower reservation servicing revenue.

 

Total active members at December 31, 2015 were approximately 1.81 million, representing an increase of 0.7% compared to 2014. In constant currency average revenue per member for 2015 was $179.73, essentially flat compared to 2014.

 

During 2015, the Interval Network affiliated 59 vacation ownership resorts in domestic and international markets. Membership mix as of December 31, 2015 included 57% traditional and 43% corporate members, compared to 58% and 42%, respectively, as of December 31, 2014.

 

Year-over-year, rental management revenue was $50.4 million, an increase of 4.6%. Rental RevPAR (defined below) was $119.70, 3.0% higher than in 2014. The increase in RevPAR was driven by a 5.0% increase in average daily rate. Hawaii-only RevPAR increased 4.9% to $129.08 for the year compared to $122.99 in the prior year. The increase in Hawaii-only RevPAR was driven by a 5.3% increase in average daily rate compared to 2015. Regarding the RevPAR numbers reported prior to 2015, a change in industry reporting standards effective January 1, 2015 excludes certain resort fees from gross lodging revenue (defined below). Consequently, this reporting change impacts the year-over-year comparability of RevPAR so we have recast prior year RevPAR figures for the purposes of this comparison.

 

Exchange and Rental segment adjusted EBITDA was $156.3 million in 2015, an increase of 3.2% from the prior year due to incremental contributions from our recently acquired HRC business, lower call center-related costs and a favorable $1.6 million change in our estimated accrual for European Union value added tax, partly offset by membership fee revenue compression and higher employee-related costs attributable in part to a rise in health and welfare costs.

 

Vacation Ownership

 

Vacation Ownership segment revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $196.1 million.  In constant currency revenue was $205.1 million, an increase of 56.6% compared to 2014 reflecting primarily the full year contribution of Hyatt Vacation Ownership (HVO) and to a lesser extent an increase in revenue in our European management business.

 

4



 

Vacation Ownership segment adjusted EBITDA in constant currency was $31.7 million in 2015, an increase of 49.5% from the prior year reflecting the full year inclusion of the HVO business. Included in the incremental HVO contribution to adjusted EBITDA is a $4.2 million increase in equity earnings of unconsolidated entities from the joint venture in Maui in 2015. This increase excludes $4.0 million of equity earnings in 2014 from this joint venture related to the recognition of pre-acquisition sales recognized upon opening in the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

 

As of December 31, 2015, ILG’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $93.1 million, compared to $80.5 million as of December 31, 2014.

 

The principal amount outstanding of long term debt as of December 31, 2015 was $425.0 million consisting of our $350 million 5-5/8% Senior Notes issued in April 2015 and $75 million drawn under our revolving credit facility. ILG had $516.4 million available on its revolving credit facility net of outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2015. The revolver may be increased by $100 million subject to certain conditions. Net leverage (defined below) at December 31, 2015 was 1.8x compared to 2.4x in 2014.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2015, net cash provided by operating activities was $142.7 million from $110.7 million in 2014. The increase of $32.1 million is principally due to lower income taxes paid of $20.0 million, $11.9 million lower payments made in connection with long-term agreements and higher net cash receipts partly due to the addition of HVO, partially offset by higher interest expense paid of $9.3 million.

 

Capital expenditures, primarily related to IT initiatives, totaled $20.3 million, or 2.9% of revenue in 2015 compared to $19.1 million in 2014.

 

Free cash flow (defined below) for the period was $122.4 million, an increase of $30.9 million, or 33.7% compared to the same period in 2014.

 

Dividend

 

For the full year 2015, ILG paid $27.6 million, or $0.48 cents per share, in dividends.

 

In February 2016 our Board of Directors declared a $0.12 per share dividend payable March 16, 2016 to shareholders of record on March 7, 2016.

 

VISTANA ACQUISITION

 

On October 28, 2015, ILG announced it had entered into an agreement to acquire Vistana Signature Experiences, Inc. (“Vistana”), the vacation ownership business of Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc.. In December we received early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, one of the closing conditions for the acquisition. We are awaiting approval by the Mexican competition agency. Simultaneously, we have filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC, and once it is declared effective we will mail the included proxy/prospectus to stockholders in advance of a special meeting of stockholders. Liberty Interactive Corporation and certain ILG executive officers representing approximately 31% of

ILG’s shares outstanding have entered into voting and support agreements in favor of the transaction.  We expect the transaction to close in the second quarter of 2016.

 

More information about the transaction can be found on the ILG website: http://www.iilg.com

 

BUSINESS OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE

 

Given the importance of Vistana in our results going forward, we are providing guidance for the combined company. The guidance assumes a $350 million securitization after closing and reflects the estimated impact of purchase accounting on revenue. For purposes of this exercise we have assumed closing on May 1, 2016 so our full year 2016 guidance includes Vistana’s contribution for eight months. However, the transaction is still subject to certain closing conditions so there can be no assurance that it will close on that date, or at all. ILG is also providing pro forma estimates for the full year 2016.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

ILG management believes that the presentation of non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) financial measures, including, among others, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted basic and diluted EPS, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, and constant currency, serves to enhance the understanding of ILG’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to and not as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, adjusted EBITDA (with certain different add-backs) is used to calculate compliance with certain financial covenants in ILG’s credit agreement and indenture. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve the transparency of our disclosures, provide meaningful presentations of our results from our business operations excluding the impact of certain items not related to our core business operations and improve the period to period comparability of results from business operations. These measures may also be useful in comparing our results to those of other companies; however, our calculations may differ from the calculations of these measures used by other companies. More information about the non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations of historical GAAP results to the non-GAAP measures, is available in the financial tables that accompany this press release.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

 

Acquisition related and restructuring costs — Represents transaction fees, costs incurred in connection with performing due diligence, subsequent adjustments to our initial estimate of contingent consideration obligations associated with business acquisitions, and other direct costs related to acquisition activities. Additionally, this item includes certain restructuring charges primarily related to workforce reductions, costs associated with integrating acquired businesses and estimated costs of exiting contractual commitments.

 

Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) — is defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period for basic EPS and, additionally, inclusive of dilutive securities for diluted EPS.

 

Adjusted EBITDA — EBITDA, excluding, without duplication, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) goodwill and asset impairments, (3) acquisition related and restructuring costs, (4) other non-operating income and expense, (5) the impact of the application of purchase accounting, (6) the deferral adjustment associated with percentage of completion accounting guidelines reflecting its impact on GAAP revenues and expenses, and (7) other special items. The Company’s presentation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

 

Adjusted free cash flow — is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, plus  net changes in financing-related restricted cash and net borrowing and repayment activity related to securitizations, minus certain expenses unrelated to our core business, such as transaction-related expenses.

 

Adjusted net income — is defined as net income attributable to common stockholders, excluding without duplication, (1) acquisition related and restructuring costs, (2) other non-operating foreign currency remeasurements, (3) the impact of the application of purchase accounting, and (4) other special items.

 

Ancillary member revenue — Other Interval Network member related revenue including insurance and travel related services.

 

Available room nights — Number of nights available for rental by Aqua-Aston at managed vacation properties during the period, which excludes all rooms under renovation.

 

Average revenue per member — Membership fee revenue, transaction revenue and ancillary member revenue for the Interval Network and Hyatt Residence Club for the applicable period, divided by the monthly weighted average number of Interval Network active members during the applicable period. Hyatt Residence Club revenue is included herein only since its October 1, 2014 acquisition.

 

Average transaction price — Contract Sales divided by the net number of transactions during the period subsequent to HVO’s October 1, 2014 acquisition.

 

Constant currency — Represents current period results of operations determined by translating the functional currency results into U.S. dollars (the reporting currency) using the actual blended rate of translation from the comparable prior period. Management believes that the presentation of results of operations excluding the effect of foreign currency translations serves to enhance the understanding of ILG’s performance and improves period to period comparability of results from business operations.

 

17



 

Contract sales — Total vacation ownership interests sold at consolidated and unconsolidated projects pursuant to purchase agreements, net of actual cancellations and rescissions, where we have met a minimum threshold amounting to a 10% down payment of the contract purchase price during the period. Contract sales are included herein only since HVO’s October 1, 2014 acquisition.

Net leverage — The principal amount outstanding of long term debt, less cash and cash equivalents divided by adjusted EBITDA.

 

Other special items — consist of other items that we believe are not related to our core business operations.

Pass-through revenue — Represents the compensation and other employee-related costs directly associated with managing properties that are included in both revenue and expenses that are passed on to the property owners or homeowner associations without mark-up. Pass-through revenue of the Vacation Ownership segment also includes reimbursement of sales and marketing expenses, without mark-up, pursuant to contractual arrangements. Management believes presenting gross margin without these expenses provides management and investors a relevant period-over-period comparison

 

Rental management revenue — Represents rental management revenue earned by our vacation rental businesses within our Exchange and Rental segment, exclusive of pass-through revenue.
