MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE CORPORATION
INTERIM CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (referred to in this report as (i) “we,” “us,” “Marriott Vacations Worldwide,” “MVW,” or the “Company,” which includes our consolidated subsidiaries except where the context of the reference is to a single corporate entity, or (ii) “MVWC,” which shall refer only to Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation, without its consolidated subsidiaries). In order to make this report easier to read, we refer throughout to (i) our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as our “Financial Statements,” (ii) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Income as our “Income Statements,” (iii) our Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets,” and (iv) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as our “Cash Flows.” In addition, references throughout to numbered “Footnotes” refer to the numbered Notes in the Interim Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, unless otherwise noted. Capitalized terms used and not specifically defined herein have the same meanings given those terms in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”). We also use certain other terms that are defined within these Financial Statements.
The Financial Statements presented herein and discussed below include 100 % of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and cash flows of Marriott Vacations Worldwide, all entities in which Marriott Vacations Worldwide has a controlling voting interest (“subsidiaries”), and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which Marriott Vacations Worldwide is the primary beneficiary, as determined in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. References in these Financial Statements to net income or loss attributable to common shareholders and MVW shareholders’ equity do not include noncontrolling interests, which represent the outside ownership of our consolidated non-wholly owned entities and are reported separately. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated in consolidation.
These Financial Statements reflect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as prepared in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, cost of vacation ownership products, inventory valuation, goodwill and intangibles valuation, accounting for acquired vacation ownership notes receivable, vacation ownership notes receivable reserves, income taxes, and loss contingencies. The uncertainties in the broader macroeconomic environment, including inflationary pressures, as well as effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, have made it more challenging to make these estimates. Actual results could differ from our estimates, and such differences may be material.
In our opinion, our Financial Statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, the results of our operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results may not be indicative of fiscal year performance because of, among other reasons, general macroeconomic conditions, including inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, and seasonal and short-term variations, as well as any effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. These Financial Statements have not been audited. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Although we believe our footnote disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, the Financial Statements in this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our 2022 Annual Report.
We refer to the business and brands that we acquired in the acquisition of Welk Hospitality Group, Inc. (“Welk”) in 2021 (the “Welk Acquisition”) as “Legacy-Welk.” We refer to the business and brands that we acquired in the acquisition of ILG, LLC, formerly known as ILG, Inc. (“ILG”), in 2018 (the “ILG Acquisition”) as “Legacy-ILG.” We refer to the business we conducted, and the associated brands, prior to the ILG Acquisition as “Legacy-MVW.”
During the third quarter of 2023 we launched Hyatt Vacation Club across our former Hyatt Residence Club and Legacy-Welk properties, which connects these properties and associated vacation ownership programs under a single brand.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
New Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Update 2022-02 – “ Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (“ASU 2022-02”)
In the first quarter of 2023, we adopted accounting standards update (“ASU”) 2022-02, which eliminated the recognition and measurement guidance applicable to troubled debt restructurings for creditors and enhanced disclosure requirements with respect to loan modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. ASU 2022-02 also requires disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination to be presented in the vintage disclosures for financing receivables. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023, on a prospective basis, did not have a material impact on our financial statements or disclosures other than the incremental disclosures relating to gross write-offs for vacation ownership notes receivable. See Footnote 6 “Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable” for the incremental disclosures required by the adoption of ASU 2022-02.
Accounting Standards Update 2020-04 – “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ” (“ASU 2020-04”) and Accounting Standards Update 2022-06 – “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 ” (“ASU 2022-06”)
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, as amended, which provides optional expedients and exceptions to existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting in an effort to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the USD London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This update was effective upon issuance and issuers generally were able to elect to adopt the optional expedients and exceptions over time through a period ending on December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 to extend the temporary accounting rules under Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. During the second quarter of 2023, we amended our Term Loan (as defined in Footnote 12 “Debt”) and our interest rate swaps and collar to reference SOFR (as defined in Footnote 12 “Debt”) rather than LIBOR. See Footnote 12 “Debt” for more information. Both our Term Loan and the related interest rate swaps and collar transitioned to SOFR at the same time, effective July 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, we have no other financial instruments to transition from LIBOR.
3. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS
Acquisitions
Savannah, Georgia
During the third quarter of 2023, we acquired property in Savannah, Georgia for $ 19 million. We plan to convert the property into a 73 -unit vacation ownership property. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition and was recorded in Property and equipment, net.
Charleston, South Carolina
During the first quarter of 2023, we acquired a parcel of land and an adjacent retail space in Charleston, South Carolina for $ 17 million. We plan to develop the parcel of land into a 50 -unit vacation ownership property and use a portion of the retail space to operate a sales center. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition and was recorded in Property and equipment, net.
Bali
During the first quarter of 2022, we acquired 88 completed vacation ownership units, as well as a sales center, located in Bali, Indonesia for $ 36 million. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition and the purchase price was allocated to Property and equipment, net. As consideration for the acquisition, we paid $ 12 million in cash and issued a non-interest bearing note payable for $ 11 million, of which $ 6 million was repaid in the first quarter of 2023. Further, during the first quarter of 2022, we reclassified $ 13 million of previous deposits associated with the project from Other assets to Property and equipment, net.
Dispositions
As part of the ILG Acquisition, we acquired the Vacation Resorts International (“VRI”) and Trading Places International (“TPI”) businesses (together, the “VRI Americas” business), which was part of our Exchange & Third-Party Management segment prior to our disposal of VRI Americas during the second quarter of 2022, as discussed below.

Table of Contents
During the second quarter of 2022, we disposed of VRI Americas for proceeds of $ 56 million, net of cash and restricted cash transferred to the buyer of $ 12 million, after determining that this business was not a core component of our future growth strategy and operating model. The results of VRI Americas are included in our Exchange and Third-Party Management segment through the date of the sale. The net carrying value of VRI Americas as of the date of the disposition was $ 51 million, including $ 25 million of goodwill and $ 20 million of intangible assets. As a result of the disposition, we recorded a gain of $ 1 million and $ 17 million in Gains (losses) and other income (expense), net on our Income Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
Additionally, during the second quarter of 2022, we disposed of entities that owned and operated a Vacation Ownership segment hotel in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, for proceeds of $ 38 million, net of cash and restricted cash transferred to the buyer of $ 3 million, consistent with our strategy to dispose of non-strategic assets. The net carrying value of the business disposed of as of the date of the disposition, excluding the cumulative translation adjustment, was $ 18 million, substantially all of which was for property and equipment. As a result of this disposition, we recorded a gain of $ 33 million in Gains (losses) and other income (expense), net on our Income Statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which included the realization of cumulative foreign currency translation gains of $ 10 million associated with the disposition of these entities.

Remaining Performance Obligations
Our remaining performance obligations represent the expected transaction price allocated to our contracts that we expect to recognize as revenue in future periods when we perform under the contracts. At September 30, 2023, approximately 91 % of this amount is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next two years .
Accounts and Contracts Receivable
Accounts and contracts receivable is comprised of amounts due from customers, primarily owners’ associations, resort developers, owners and members, credit card receivables, interest receivables, amounts due from taxing authorities, indemnification assets, and other miscellaneous receivables.

5. INCOME TAXES
Our provision for income taxes is calculated using an estimated annual effective tax rate (“AETR”), based upon expected annual income less losses in certain jurisdictions, non-deductible expenses under federal and local tax laws, statutory rates and planned tax strategies in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. Certain items that do not relate directly to ordinary income are excluded from the AETR and included in the period in which they occur.
Our effective tax rate was 36.1 % and 34.7 % for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, and 34.3 % and 30.6 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Table of Contents
The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 is predominately attributable to a decrease in Income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests from 2022 to 2023 without a proportional decrease to non-deductible tax expenses, in addition to a net decrease in the tax expense for foreign uncertain tax benefits in 2023.
The increase in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is attributable to a decrease in Income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests from 2022 to 2023 without a proportional decrease to non-deductible tax expenses, partially offset by a net increase in the tax expense for foreign uncertain tax benefits in 2023.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The following table summarizes the activity related to our unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest and penalties) during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. These unrecognized tax benefits relate to uncertain income tax positions, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized.

The total amount of gross interest and penalties accrued was $ 46 million at September 30, 2023 and $ 28 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $ 18 million, which is predominantly attributable to additional interest and penalties related to the pre-acquisition reserves for uncertain tax positions. We anticipate $ 35 million of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, to be indemnified pursuant to a Tax Matters Agreement dated May 11, 2016 by and among Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., Vistana Signature Experiences, Inc., and Interval Leisure Group, Inc., and consequently have recorded a corresponding indemnification asset. The unrecognized tax benefits, including accrued interest and penalties, are included in Other liabilities on our Balance Sheet.
Our income tax returns are subject to examination by relevant tax authorities. Certain of our returns are being audited in various jurisdictions for tax years 2007 through 2020. The amount of the unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease within the next twelve months as a result of audits or audit settlements.

Credit Quality Indicators - Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable
We use the origination of vacation ownership notes receivable and the FICO scores of the customer by brand as the primary credit quality indicators, as historical performance indicates that there is a relationship between the default behavior of borrowers by FICO score and the brand associated with the vacation ownership interest (“VOI”) they have acquired. The estimates of the variable consideration included in the transaction price for the sale of the related vacation ownership product for originated vacation ownership notes receivable and the reserve for credit losses on the acquired vacation ownership notes receivable are based on default rates that are an output of our static pool analyses and estimates regarding future defaults.
In the third quarter of 2023, we evaluated our vacation ownership notes receivable reserve in light of trends in delinquencies and default rates. As a result, we increased our originated vacation ownership notes receivable reserve by $ 59 million. We primarily used a historical period of increased defaults as a basis for estimating the increase in our reserve. This additional reserve adjusts our future default rate estimate to reflect current macroeconomic conditions, including inflation outpacing wage growth, continuing high interest rates, mixed economic indicators and increased global insecurity.
In the third quarter of 2022, in connection with the combination of the reserves for Marriott-, Sheraton-, and Westin-brands, we recorded a reversal of credit loss expense for the acquired vacation ownership notes receivable of $ 19 million in Financing expense and an increase in the reserve for our originated vacation ownership notes receivable of $ 21 million, which was recorded as a reduction of sales of vacation ownership products revenues.
We use the term “Combined Marriott” to refer to our Marriott-, Sheraton-, and Westin-brands.
The weighted average FICO score of the borrowers within our consolidated vacation ownership notes receivable pool was 722 and 721 , at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, based on the FICO score of the borrower at the time of origination.

For both non-securitized and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable, we estimated the average remaining default rates of 13.35 % as of September 30, 2023 and 11.62 % as of December 31, 2022. A 0.5 percentage point increase in the estimated default rate would have resulted in an increase in the related vacation ownership notes receivable reserve of $ 13 million as of September 30, 2023 and $ 12 million as of December 31, 2022.

The following table shows the carrying values and the estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments, determined in accordance with the authoritative guidance for disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The table excludes Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Accounts and contracts receivable (excluding contracts receivable for financed VOI sales, net), deposits included in Other assets, Accounts payable, Advance deposits, Accrued liabilities, and derivative instruments, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

We estimate the fair value of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have been securitized using a discounted cash flow model. We believe this is comparable to the model that an independent third party would use in the current market. Our model uses default rates, prepayment rates, coupon rates, and loan terms for our securitized vacation ownership notes receivable portfolio as key drivers of risk and relative value to determine the fair value of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
Due to factors that impact the general marketability of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized, as well as current market conditions, we bifurcate our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable at each balance sheet date into those eligible and not eligible for securitization using criteria applicable to current securitization transactions in the ABS market. Generally, vacation ownership notes receivable are considered not eligible for securitization if any of the following attributes are present: (1) payments are greater than 30 days past due; (2) the first payment has not been received; or (3) the collateral is located in Asia or Europe. In some cases, eligibility may also
19
Table of Contents
be determined based on the credit score of the borrower, the remaining term of the loans and other similar factors that may reflect investor demand in a securitization transaction or the cost to effectively securitize the vacation ownership notes receivable.
The table above shows the bifurcation of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized into those eligible and not eligible for securitization based upon the aforementioned eligibility criteria. We estimate the fair value of the portion of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized that we believe will ultimately be securitized in the same manner as vacation ownership notes receivable that have been securitized. We value the remaining vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized at their carrying value, rather than using our pricing model. We believe that the carrying value of these particular vacation ownership notes receivable approximates fair value because the stated, or otherwise imputed, interest rates of these loans are generally consistent with current market rates and the reserve for these vacation ownership notes receivable appropriately accounts for risks in default rates, prepayment rates, discount rates, and loan terms. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
Contracts Receivable for Financed VOI Sales
At the time at which we recognize revenue for Marriott-branded VOI sales, we temporarily record a contract receivable for financed VOI sales, until the time at which we originate a vacation ownership note receivable, which occurs at closing. We believe that the carrying value of the contracts receivable for financed VOI sales approximates fair value because the stated, or otherwise imputed, interest rates of these receivables are generally consistent with current market rates and the reserve for these contracts receivable for financed VOI sales appropriately accounts for risks in default rates, prepayment rates, and discount rates. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
Other Assets
Other assets include $ 88 million of company owned insurance policies (the “COLI policies”), acquired on the lives of certain participants in the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Deferred Compensation Plan, that are held in a rabbi trust. The carrying value of the COLI policies is equal to their cash surrender value (Level 2 inputs).
Securitized Debt
We generate cash flow estimates by modeling all bond tranches for our active vacation ownership notes receivable securitization transactions, with consideration for the collateral specific to each tranche. The key drivers in our analysis include default rates, prepayment rates, bond interest rates, and other structural factors, which we use to estimate the projected cash flows. In order to estimate market credit spreads by rating, we obtain indicative credit spreads from investment banks that actively issue and facilitate the market for vacation ownership securities and determine an average credit spread by rating level of the different tranches. We then apply those estimated market spreads to swap rates in order to estimate an underlying discount rate for calculating the fair value of the active bonds payable. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
Term Loan
We estimate the fair value of our Term Loan (as defined in Footnote 12 “Debt”) using quotes from securities dealers as of the last trading day for the quarter; however, this loan has only a limited trading history and volume, and as such, this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the Term Loan could be retired or transferred. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
Revolving Corporate Credit Facility
We estimate that the gross carrying value of our Revolving Corporate Credit Facility (as defined in Footnote 12 “Debt”) approximates fair value as the contractual interest rate is variable plus an applicable margin. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
Senior Notes
We estimate the fair value of our 2025 Notes, 2028 Notes, and 2029 Notes (each as defined in Footnote 12 “Debt”) using quoted market prices as of the last trading day for the quarter; however these notes have only a limited trading history and volume, and as such, this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which these notes could be retired or transferred. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 2.

Convertible Notes
We estimate the fair value of our convertible notes using quoted market prices as of the last trading day for the quarter; however, these notes have only a limited trading history and volume, and as such, this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the convertible notes could be retired or transferred. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 2.
Non-Interest Bearing Note Payable
The carrying value of our non-interest bearing note payable issued in connection with the acquisition of vacation ownership units located in Bali, Indonesia approximates fair value. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
8. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings or loss per common share attributable to common shareholders is calculated by dividing net income or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Treasury stock is excluded from the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings or loss per common share attributable to common shareholders is calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the reporting period, except in periods when there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. The dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based compensation awards is reflected in diluted earnings or loss per common share applicable to common shareholders by application of the treasury stock method using average market prices during the period.
The shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants sold in connection with the issuance of our convertible notes will not impact the total dilutive weighted average shares outstanding unless and until the price of our common stock exceeds the respective strike price. If and when the price of our common stock exceeds the respective strike price of any of the warrants, we will include the dilutive effect of the additional shares that may be issued upon exercise of the warrants in total dilutive weighted average shares outstanding, which we calculate using the treasury stock method. The convertible note hedges purchased in connection with each issuance of our convertible notes are considered to be anti-dilutive and do not impact our calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders for any periods presented herein.

(1) The computations of diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders exclude approximately 200,000 and 293,000 shares of common stock, the maximum number of shares issuable as of September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, upon the vesting of certain performance-based awards, because the performance conditions required to be met for the shares subject to such awards to vest were not achieved by the end of the reporting period.
In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for calculating earnings per share, for the third quarter and first three quarters of 2023, we excluded from our calculation of diluted earnings per share 287,125 shares underlying stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) that may settle in shares of common stock because the exercise prices of such SARs, which ranged from $ 143.38 to $ 173.88 , were greater than the average market price of our common stock for the applicable period.
For the third quarter of 2022, we excluded from our calculation of diluted earnings per share 252,314 shares underlying SARs that may settle in shares of common stock because the exercise prices of such SARs, which ranged from $ 143.38 to $ 173.88 , were greater than the average market price of our common stock for the applicable period.
For the first three quarters of 2022, we excluded from our calculation of diluted earnings per share 199,813 shares underlying SARs that may settle in shares of common stock because the exercise prices of such SARs, which ranged from $ 159.27 to $ 173.88 , were greater than the average market price of our common stock for the applicable period.

$ 642 $ 660
(1) Represents completed inventory that is registered for sale as VOIs and vacation ownership inventory expected to be reacquired pursuant to estimated future defaults on originated vacation ownership notes receivable.
We value vacation ownership products at the lower of cost or fair market value less costs to sell, in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, and we record operating supplies at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Product cost true-up activity relating to vacation ownership products increased carrying values of inventory by $ 24 million during the first three quarters of 2023 and $ 15 million during the first three quarters of 2022.
In addition to the above, at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $ 369 million and $ 428 million, respectively, of completed vacation ownership units which are classified as a component of Property and equipment, net until the time at which they are available and legally registered for sale as vacation ownership products.
10. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
Commitments and Letters of Credit
As of September 30, 2023, we had the following commitments outstanding:
• We have various contracts for the use of information technology hardware and software that we use in the normal course of business. Our aggregate commitment under these contracts was $ 107 million, of which we expect $ 17 million, $ 42 million, $ 24 million, $ 14 million, $ 6 million and $ 4 million will be paid in the remainder of 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, and thereafter, respectively.
• We have a commitment to acquire real estate for use in our Vacation Ownership segment via our involvement with a VIE. Refer to Footnote 15 “Variable Interest Entities” for additional information and our activities relating to the VIE involved in this transaction.
Surety bonds issued as of September 30, 2023 totaled $ 121 million, the majority of which were requested by federal, state, or local governments in connection with our operations.
As of September 30, 2023, we had $ 1 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Revolving Corporate Credit Facility (as defined in Footnote 12 “Debt”). In addition, as of September 30, 2023, we had $ 1 million in letters of credit outstanding related to and in lieu of reserves required for several vacation ownership notes receivable securitization transactions outstanding. These letters of credit are not issued pursuant to, nor do they impact our borrowing capacity under, the Revolving Corporate Credit Facility.
Guarantees
Certain of our rental management agreements in our Exchange & Third-Party Management segment provide for owners of properties we manage to receive specified percentages of rental revenue or guaranteed amounts generated under our management. In these cases, the operating expenses for the rental operations are paid from the revenue generated by the rentals, the owners are then paid their contractual percentages or guaranteed amounts, and we either retain the balance of the rental revenue (if any) as our fee or we make up the deficit if the owners have not received their guaranteed amounts. At September 30, 2023, our maximum exposure under fixed dollar guarantees was $ 5 million, of which $ 2 million, $ 1 million, $ 1 million, and $ 1 million relate to 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027 and thereafter, respectively.
We have a commitment to an owners’ association that we manage to pay for any shortfall between the actual expenses incurred by the owners’ association and the income received by the owners’ association, in lieu of our payment of maintenance fees for unsold inventory. The agreement will terminate on the earlier of: 1) sale of 95 % of the total ownership interests in the owners’ association; or 2) written notification of termination by either party. At September 30, 2023, our expected commitment for the remainder of 2023 is $ 3 million.

Loss Contingencies
In February 2019, the owners’ association for the St. Regis Residence Club, New York filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court for the State of New York, New York County, Commercial Division against ILG and several of its subsidiaries and certain third parties. The operative complaint alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties related to sale and rental practices, aided and abetted certain breaches of fiduciary duty, engaged in self-dealing as the sponsor and manager of the club, tortiously interfered with the management agreement, were unjustly enriched, and engaged in anticompetitive conduct. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified damages, punitive damages and disgorgement of payments under the management and purchase agreements. In February 2022, the Court granted our motion to dismiss the complaint and dismissed with prejudice all claims except one (such claim, the “Remaining Claim”), with respect to which the plaintiff was granted leave to amend its complaint. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint with respect to the Remaining Claim and appealed the dismissal of the other claims. In June 2023, the appellate court upheld the dismissal of those claims. Plaintiff filed a motion for reconsideration of that appellate ruling, and in October 2023, the appellate court denied that motion. In November 2022, the Court granted our motion to dismiss the amended complaint with respect to the Remaining Claim and again granted plaintiff leave to amend its complaint. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint with respect to the Remaining Claim and again appealed the dismissal of the other claims. That appeal remains pending. In September 2023, the Court granted our motion to dismiss the amended complaint with respect to the Remaining Claim and denied plaintiff permission to file any additional amended complaints. We believe we have meritorious defenses to the claims in this matter and intend to vigorously defend against them.
In the ordinary course of our business, various claims and lawsuits have been filed or are pending against us. A number of these lawsuits and claims may exist at any given time. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic may give rise to various claims and lawsuits from owners, members and other parties. We record and accrue for legal contingencies when we determine that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In making such determinations, we evaluate, among other things, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, our ability to make a reasonable estimate of loss. We review these accruals each reporting period and make revisions based on changes in facts and circumstances.
We have not accrued for the pending matter described above and we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability associated with this pending matter, if any, at this time. We have accrued for other claims and lawsuits, but the amount accrued is not material individually or in the aggregate. For matters not requiring accrual, we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will materially harm our financial position, cash flows, or overall trends in results of operations based on information currently available. However, legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and while we believe that our accruals, where required, are adequate and/or we have valid defenses to the claims asserted, unfavorable rulings could occur that could, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations
Each of the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable transactions contains various triggers relating to the performance of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable. If a pool of securitized vacation ownership notes receivable fails to perform within the pool’s established parameters (default or delinquency thresholds vary by transaction), transaction provisions effectively redirect the monthly excess spread we would otherwise receive from that pool (attributable to the interests we retained) to accelerate the principal payments to investors (taking into account the subordination of the different tranches to the extent there are multiple tranches) until the performance trigger is cured. During the third quarter of 2023, and as of September 30, 2023, we had 14 securitized vacation ownership notes receivable pools outstanding, none of which were out of compliance with their respective established parameters.
As the contractual terms of the underlying securitized vacation ownership notes receivable determine the maturities of the non-recourse debt associated with them, actual maturities may occur earlier than shown above due to prepayments by the vacation ownership notes receivable obligors.
During the second quarter of 2023, we securitized a pool of $ 388 million of vacation ownership notes receivable. In connection with the securitization, $ 380 million in vacation ownership loan backed notes were issued by MVW 2023-1 LLC (the “2023-1 LLC”) in a private placement. Four classes of vacation ownership loan backed notes were issued by the 2023-1 LLC: $ 237 million of Class A Notes, $ 65 million of Class B Notes, $ 48 million of Class C Notes, and $ 30 million of Class D Notes. The Class A Notes have an interest rate of 4.93 %, the Class B Notes have an interest rate of 5.42 %, the Class C Notes have an interest rate of 6.54 %, and the Class D Notes have an interest rate of 8.83 %. Investors purchased $ 369 million of the vacation ownership loan backed notes issued by the 2023-1 LLC, composed of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, and a portion of the Class D Notes, of which we retained $ 11 million. Proceeds from the transaction, net of fees and a reserve, were used to repay the outstanding obligations on our warehouse credit facility (the “Warehouse Credit Facility”) and for other general corporate purposes. The Class D notes that we retained were subsequently sold at par during the second quarter of 2023.
Warehouse Credit Facility
During the second quarter of 2023, we amended certain agreements associated with our Warehouse Credit Facility (the “Warehouse Amendment”). The Warehouse Amendment increased the borrowing capacity of the existing facility from $ 425 million to $ 500 million and extended the revolving period from July 28, 2024 to May 31, 2025. The Warehouse Amendment made no other material changes to the Warehouse Credit Facility.

Corporate Credit Facility
Our corporate credit facility (“Corporate Credit Facility”), which provides support for our business, including ongoing liquidity and letters of credit, includes a $ 900 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), which matures on August 31, 2025, and a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $ 750 million (the “Revolving Corporate Credit Facility”), including a letter of credit sub-facility of $ 75 million, that terminates on March 31, 2027.
During the second quarter of 2023, we entered into an amendment to the Corporate Credit Facility (the “Amendment”), which modified the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Term Loan. Beginning July 31, 2023, the Term Loan references the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and is based on “Adjusted Term SOFR,” which is calculated as Term SOFR (as defined in the Amendment), plus a 0.10 % adjustment for a one-month interest period, a 0.15 % adjustment for a three-month interest period, or a 0.25 % adjustment for a six-month interest period, subject to a 0.00 % floor.
Prior to 2022, we entered into interest rate swaps and an interest rate collar under which we may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating interest rate to hedge a portion of our interest rate risk on the Term Loan. During the second quarter of 2023, we amended these interest rate swaps and the collar to reference SOFR rather than LIBOR, effective July 31, 2023. As a result of this transition, the fixed rate on the $ 250 million of interest rate swaps that matured in September 2023 was amended to 2.88 %, the fixed rate on the $ 200 million of interest rate swaps maturing in April 2024 was amended to 2.17 %, and the cap strike price on the $ 100 million interest rate collar was amended to 2.43 %. Both the interest rate swaps and the interest rate collar have been designated and qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and are recorded in Other assets on our Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. We characterize payments we make or receive in connection with these derivative instruments as interest expense and a reclassification of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss for presentation purposes.
The following table reflects the activity in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss related to our derivative instruments during the first three quarters of 2023 and 2022. There were no reclassifications to the Income Statement for any of the periods presented below.

During the first quarter of 2023, we redeemed, prior to maturity, the remaining $ 250 million of the 2025 Notes outstanding pursuant to a redemption notice issued in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the terms of the indenture governing the 2025 Notes. In connection with this redemption, we incurred charges of $ 10 million, inclusive of a redemption premium and the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded in Gains (losses) and other income (expense), net on our Income Statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Convertible Notes
2026 Convertible Notes
During 2021, we issued $ 575 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (the “2026 Convertible Notes”) that bear interest at a rate of 0.00 %. The 2026 Convertible Notes mature on January 15, 2026, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to that date.
The conversion rate is subject to adjustment for certain events as described in the indenture governing the notes, and was subject to adjustment as of September 30, 2023 to 6.1044 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2026 Convertible Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of $ 163.82 per share of our common stock), as a result of the dividends we declared since issuance of the 2026 Convertible Notes that were greater than the quarterly dividend we paid when the 2026 Convertible Notes were issued. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. As of September 30, 2023, the effective interest rate was 0.55 %.

During the third quarter of 2021, our Board of Directors authorized us to purchase shares of our common stock under a Share Repurchase Program for an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $ 250 million, prior to December 31, 2022. During the first quarter of 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to an additional $ 300 million of our common stock under this program and extended the term of this program to March 31, 2023. During the third quarter of 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to an additional $ 500 million of our common stock under this program and extended the term of this program to June 30, 2023. During the second quarter of 2023, our Board of Directors increased the remaining authorization to authorize purchases of up to $ 600 million and extended the term of this program

to December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $ 476 million remained available for share repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program.
Share repurchases may be made through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block transactions, tender offers, or otherwise. The specific timing, amount and other terms of the repurchases will depend on market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. In connection with the current Share Repurchase Program, we are authorized to adopt one or more plans pursuant to the provisions of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The authorization for the current Share Repurchase Program may be suspended, terminated, increased or decreased by our Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. Acquired shares of our common stock are currently held as treasury shares and carried at cost in our Financial Statements.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which was enacted in August 2022, imposes a 1% excise tax on the net value of certain stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022. For purposes of calculating the excise tax, the fair value of certain share issuances may be netted against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In the first three quarters of 2023, we reflected the applicable excise tax in treasury stock as part of the cost basis of the stock repurchased and recorded a corresponding liability for the excise taxes payable in Accrued liabilities on our Balance Sheet.
The following table summarizes share repurchase activity under our Share Repurchase Programs:
($ in millions, except per share amounts) Number of Shares Repurchased Cost Basis of Shares Repurchased Average Price

As of September 30, 2023 24,710,073 $ 2,367 $ 95.80
Dividends
We declared cash dividends to holders of common stock during the first three quarters of 2023 as follows. Any future dividend payments will be subject to the restrictions imposed under the agreements covering our debt, and Board approval. There can be no assurance that we will pay dividends in the future.

14. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
We maintain the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “MVW Equity Plan”) for the benefit of our officers, directors, and employees. Under the MVW Equity Plan, we are authorized to award: (1) restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of our common stock, (2) stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) relating to our common stock, and (3) stock options to purchase our common stock. A total of 1.8 million shares are authorized for issuance pursuant to grants under the MVW Equity Plan. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 0.8 million shares were available for grants under the MVW Equity Plan.
The following table details our share-based compensation expense related to award grants to our officers, directors, and employees:

Restricted Stock Units
We granted 199,468 service-based RSUs, which are subject to time-based vesting conditions, with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $ 143.54 , to our employees and non-employee directors during the first three quarters of 2023. During the first three quarters of 2023, we also granted performance-based RSUs, which are subject to performance-based vesting conditions, to members of management. A maximum of 114,602 RSUs may be earned under the performance-based RSU awards granted during the first three quarters of 2023.
Stock Appreciation Rights
We granted 37,436 SARs, with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $ 58.50 and a weighted average exercise price of $ 153.10 , to members of management during the first three quarters of 2023. We use the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the SARs granted. The expected stock price volatility was calculated based on the average of the historical and implied volatility of our stock price. The average expected life was calculated using the simplified method, as we have insufficient historical information to provide a basis for estimating average expected life. The risk-free interest rate was calculated based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The dividend yield assumption listed below is based on the expectation of future payouts.
The following table outlines the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of grants during the first three quarters of 2023:
Expected volatility 40.47 %
Dividend yield 1.87 %
Risk-free rate 4.07 %
Expected term (in years) 6.25
15. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Variable Interest Entities Related to Our Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations
We periodically securitize, without recourse, through bankruptcy remote special purpose entities, notes receivable originated in connection with the sale of vacation ownership products. These vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations provide funding for general corporate purposes. In a vacation ownership notes receivable securitization, various classes of debt securities issued by a special purpose entity are generally collateralized by a single tranche of transferred assets, which consist of vacation ownership notes receivable. With each vacation ownership notes receivable securitization, we may retain all or a portion of the securities that are issued, and certain residual interests.
We created these bankruptcy remote special purpose entities to serve as a mechanism for holding assets and related liabilities, and the entities have no equity investment at risk, making them VIEs. We continue to service the vacation ownership notes receivable, transfer all proceeds collected to these special purpose entities, and retain rights to receive benefits that are potentially significant to the entities. Accordingly, we concluded that we are the entities’ primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidate them. There is no noncontrolling interest balance related to these entities and the creditors of these entities do not have general recourse to us.

Under the terms of our vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations, we have the right to substitute loans for, or repurchase, defaulted loans at our option, subject to certain limitations. Our maximum exposure to potential loss relating to the special purpose entities that purchase, sell and own these vacation ownership notes receivable is the overcollateralization amount (the difference between the loan collateral balance and the balance of the outstanding vacation ownership notes receivable), plus cash reserves and any residual interest in future cash flows from collateral.

Other Variable Interest Entities
We have a commitment to purchase a property located in Waikiki, Hawaii. The property is held by a VIE for which we are not the primary beneficiary. We do not control the decisions that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity during construction. Further, our purchase commitment is generally contingent upon the property being redeveloped to our brand standards. Accordingly, we have not consolidated the VIE. We expect to acquire the property over time and as of September 30, 2023, we expect to make payments for the property as follows: $ 112 million in 2024, $ 81 million in 2025 and $ 41 million in 2026. As of September 30, 2023, our Balance Sheet reflected $ 1 million in Accounts Receivable, including a note receivable of approximately $ 1 million, $ 3 million in Property and Equipment, and $ 1 million in Accrued Liabilities. We believe that our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with this VIE is approximately $ 3 million as of September 30, 2023.
Deferred Compensation Plan
We consolidate the liabilities of the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Deferred Compensation Plan and the related assets, which consist of the COLI policies held in a rabbi trust. The rabbi trust is considered a VIE. We are considered the primary beneficiary of the rabbi trust because we direct the activities of the trust and are the beneficiary of the trust. At September 30, 2023, the value of the assets held in the rabbi trust was $ 88 million, which is included in the Other line within assets on our Balance Sheets.

16. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
We define our reportable segments based on the way in which the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), currently our chief executive officer, manages the operations of the Company for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. We operate in two operating and reportable business segments:
• Vacation Ownership includes a diverse portfolio of resorts that includes some of the world’s most iconic brands licensed under exclusive, long-term relationships. We are the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer, seller, and manager of vacation ownership and related products under the Marriott Vacation Club, Grand Residences by Marriott, Sheraton Vacation Club, Westin Vacation Club, and Hyatt Vacation Club brands, as well as under Marriott Vacation Club Pulse, an extension of the Marriott Vacation Club brand. We are also the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer, and seller of vacation ownership and related products under The Ritz-Carlton Club brand, we have the non-exclusive right to develop, market, and sell whole ownership residential products under The Ritz-Carlton Residences brand and have a license to use the St. Regis brand for specified fractional ownership resorts.
• Our Vacation Ownership segment generates most of its revenues from four primary sources: selling vacation ownership products; managing vacation ownership resorts, clubs, and owners’ associations; financing consumer purchases of vacation ownership products; and renting vacation ownership inventory.
• Exchange & Third-Party Management includes an exchange network and membership programs, as well as provision of management services to other resorts and lodging properties. We provide these services through our Interval International and Aqua-Aston businesses. Exchange & Third-Party Management revenue generally is fee-based and derived from membership, exchange and rental transactions, property and owners’ association management, and other related products and services. VRI Americas was part of the Exchange & Third-Party Management segment through the date of sale in April 2022.
Our CODM evaluates the performance of our segments based primarily on the results of the segment without allocating corporate expenses or income taxes. We do not allocate corporate interest expense or indirect general and administrative expenses to our segments. We include interest income specific to segment activities within the appropriate segment. We allocate depreciation and amortization, other gains and losses, equity in earnings or losses from our joint ventures, and noncontrolling interest to each of our segments as appropriate. Corporate and other represents that portion of our results that are not allocable to our segments, including those relating to consolidated owners’ associations, as our CODM does not use this information to make operating segment resource allocations.
Our CODM uses Adjusted Earnings before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) to evaluate the profitability of our operating segments, and the components of net income or loss attributable to common shareholders excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are not separately evaluated. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss attributable to common shareholders, before interest expense (excluding consumer financing interest expense associated with term securitization transactions), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding share-based compensation expense and adjusted for certain items that affect the comparability of our operating performance. Our reconciliation of the aggregate amount of Adjusted EBITDA for our reportable segments to consolidated net income or loss attributable to common shareholders is presented below.
