Marriott Vacations Worldwide Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results

Business Wire 26-Feb-2025 4:15 PM

Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (NYSE:VAC) ("MVW," the "Company," "we" or "our") reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2024 and provided guidance for full year 2025.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights Consolidated Vacation Ownership contract sales increased 7% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 to $477 million, including 9% first time buyer contract sales growth.

  • Net income attributable to common stockholders was $50 million and diluted earnings per share was $1.30.
  • Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders was $73 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share was $1.86.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $185 million.
  • Full year cash provided by operating activities was $205 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow was $278 million.
  • The Company provides full year 2025 guidance.

"We had a strong end of the year, reflecting the resilience of our leisure-focused business model and the success of the initiatives we launched last year, with contract sales growing 7% year-over-year in the fourth quarter," said John Geller, president and chief executive officer. "Looking forward, we believe we have substantial opportunities to accelerate revenue growth, reduce costs and enhance operational efficiencies, and expect to generate $150 million to $200 million in run-rate benefits from these initiatives by the end of 2026, with half coming from cost savings and efficiencies and the balance from accelerating revenue growth. We will also continue to focus on delivering the experiences our owners, members, and guests expect of us, which is the most important thing we can do as an organization."

Revenues excluding cost reimbursements and Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased year-over-year due to lower exchange revenue at Interval International and reduced management fees at Aqua-Aston due to weakened demand in Maui.

Corporate and Other General and administrative costs decreased $20 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year driven largely by lower project and IT spending.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity The Company ended the year with $914 million in liquidity, including $197 million of cash and cash equivalents and $607 million of available capacity under its revolving corporate credit facility. The Company also had more than $1 billion of total inventory at the end of the quarter, including $271 million classified as a component of Property and equipment.

The Company had $3.1 billion of corporate debt and $2.1 billion of non-recourse debt related to its securitized vacation ownership notes receivable at the end of 2024.

The guidance provided above excludes impacts from asset sales, foreign currency changes, restructuring costs, litigation charges, strategic modernization initiative costs, transaction and integration costs, and impairments, each of which the Company cannot forecast with sufficient accuracy to factor them into the guidance provided above and without unreasonable efforts, and which may be significant. As a result, the full year 2025 adjusted free cash flow is presented only on a non-GAAP basis and is not reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measures. Where one or more of the currently unavailable items is applicable, some items could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to GAAP reported results.

* Denotes non-GAAP financial measures. Please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional information about our reasons for providing these alternative financial measures and limitations on their use.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE CORPORATION NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In our press release and schedules, and on the related conference call, we report certain financial measures that are not prescribed by GAAP. We discuss our reasons for reporting these non-GAAP financial measures below, and the financial schedules included herein reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to each non-GAAP financial measure that we report (identified by an asterisk ("*") on the preceding pages). Although we evaluate and present these non-GAAP financial measures for the reasons described below, please be aware that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenues, net income or loss attributable to common stockholders, earnings or loss per share or any other comparable operating measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do or may not calculate them at all, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Certain Items Excluded from Non-GAAP Financial Measures We evaluate non-GAAP financial measures, including those identified by an asterisk ("*") on the preceding pages, that exclude certain items as further described in the financial schedules included herein, and believe these measures provide useful information to investors because these non-GAAP financial measures allow for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of these items. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate the comparison of results from our on-going core operations before these items with results from other companies.

Adjusted Development Profit and Adjusted Development Profit Margin We evaluate Adjusted development profit (Adjusted sale of vacation ownership products, net of expenses) and Adjusted development profit margin as indicators of operating performance. Adjusted development profit margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted development profit by revenues from the Sale of vacation ownership products. Adjusted development profit and Adjusted development profit margin adjust Sale of vacation ownership products revenues for the impact of revenue reportability, include corresponding adjustments to Cost of vacation ownership products associated with the change in revenues from the Sale of vacation ownership products, and may include adjustments for certain items as necessary. We evaluate Adjusted development profit and Adjusted development profit margin and believe they provide useful information to investors because they allow for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of revenue reportability and certain items to our Development profit and Development profit margin.

Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA, a financial measure that is not prescribed by GAAP, is defined as earnings, or net income or loss attributable to common stockholders, before interest expense, net (excluding consumer financing interest expense associated with term securitization transactions), income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA reflects additional adjustments for certain items and excludes share-based compensation expense to address considerable variability among companies in recording compensation expense because companies use share-based payment awards differently, both in the type and quantity of awards granted. For purposes of our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations, we do not adjust for consumer financing interest expense associated with term securitization transactions because we consider it to be an operating expense of our business. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance, which we use to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, expand our business, and return cash to stockholders. We also use Adjusted EBITDA, as do analysts, lenders, investors and others, because this measure excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company's capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provisions for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA also exclude depreciation and amortization because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful as an indicator of operating performance because it allows for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of the excluded items. Adjusted EBITDA also facilitates comparison by us, analysts, investors, and others, of results from our on-going core operations before the impact of these items with results from other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin We evaluate Adjusted EBITDA margin and Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin as indicators of operating profitability. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by the Company's total revenues less cost reimbursement revenues. Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Segment Adjusted EBITDA divided by the applicable segment's total revenues less cost reimbursement revenues. We evaluate Adjusted EBITDA margin and Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin and believe it provides useful information to investors because it allows for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of excluded items.

Adjusted Pretax Income, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Diluted We evaluate Adjusted pretax income, Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders, and Adjusted earnings per share - diluted as indicators of operating performance. Adjusted pretax income is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation and amortization and interest expense, net of interest income. Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders is calculated as Adjusted pretax income less provision for income tax adjusted for certain items and Adjusted earnings per share - diluted equals adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders divided by diluted shares. We evaluate these measures because we believe they provide useful information to investors because they allow for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of certain non-recurring items such as impacts from asset sales, restructuring costs, litigation charges, strategic modernization initiative costs, transaction and integration costs, and impairments, and also facilitate the comparison of results from our on-going core operations before these items with results from other companies.

Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow We evaluate Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow as liquidity measures that provide useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures for property and equipment and the borrowing and repayment activity related to our term securitizations, which cash can be used for, among other purposes, strategic opportunities, including acquisitions and strengthening the balance sheet. Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which reflects additional adjustments to Free Cash Flow for the impact of transaction, integration and restructuring costs, litigation charges, insurance proceeds, impact of borrowings available from the securitization of eligible vacation ownership notes receivable, and changes in restricted cash and other items, allows for period-over-period comparisons of the cash generated by our business before the impact of these items. Analysis of Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow also facilitates management's comparison of our results with our competitors' results.
