Second Securitization of Vacation Ownership Loans in 2021
ORLANDO, Fla. - November 18, 2021 - Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: VAC) (“MVW” or the “Company”) announced today the completion of its second timeshare receivable securitization of 2021, offered pursuant to Rule 144A and outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. $425 million of notes (the “Notes”) were issued in the transaction, backed by a pool of approximately $434 million of vacation ownership loans from all of the Company’s timeshare brands. The overall weighted average interest rate of the Notes is 1.64 percent and the transaction has a gross advance rate of 98 percent.
The Notes were issued by MVW 2021-2 LLC (the “LLC”) in three classes: approximately $265 million of Class A Notes, approximately $95 million of Class B Notes, and approximately $65 million of Class C Notes. The Class A Notes have an interest rate of 1.43 percent, the Class B Notes have an interest rate of 1.83 percent, and the Class C Notes have an interest rate of 2.23 percent.
Approximately $325 million of the loans were purchased on November 18, 2021, by the LLC, and all or a portion of the remaining loans may be purchased by the LLC prior to April 30, 2022. Of the $425 million in proceeds from the transaction, $106 million will be held by the LLC until it purchases all or a portion of the remaining loans or, if not used for that purpose, returned to the investors. In addition, approximately $107 million was used to repay all outstanding amounts previously drawn under MVW’s $350 million warehouse credit facility, approximately $8 million was used to pay transaction expenses and fund required reserves, and the remaining $204 million will be used for general corporate purposes.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities law. Unless so registered, the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
