Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our Business

Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (“Marriott Vacations Worldwide,” “we” or “us,” which includes our consolidated subsidiaries except where the context of the reference is to a single corporate entity) is the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer, seller and manager of vacation ownership and related products under the Marriott Vacation Club and Grand Residences by Marriott brands. We are also the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer and seller of vacation ownership and related products under the Ritz-Carlton Destination Club brand, and we have the non-exclusive right to develop, market and sell whole ownership residential products under the Ritz-Carlton Residences brand. The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. (“Ritz-Carlton”), a subsidiary of Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott International”), generally provides on-site management for Ritz-Carlton branded properties.

Our business is grouped into three reportable segments: North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. We operate 63 properties in the United States and nine other countries and territories.

We generate most of our revenues from four primary sources: selling vacation ownership products, managing our resorts, financing consumer purchases, and renting vacation ownership inventory.

Our Spin-Off from Marriott International, Inc.

On November 21, 2011, the spin-off of Marriott Vacations Worldwide (the “Spin-Off”) from Marriott International was completed. In the Spin-Off, Marriott International’s vacation ownership operations and related residential business were separated from Marriott International through a special tax-free dividend to Marriott International’s shareholders of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of our company. As a result of the Spin-Off, we became an independent company, and our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VAC.” Following the Spin-Off, we and Marriott International have operated independently, and neither company has any ownership interest in the other.

In order to provide for an orderly transition to our status as an independent, publicly owned company and to govern the ongoing relationship between us and Marriott International, we and Marriott International entered into material agreements pertaining to the provision by each company to the other of certain services, and the rights and obligations of each company, following the Spin-Off. These agreements also provide for each company to indemnify the other against certain liabilities arising from our respective businesses. The agreements include a License, Services, and Development Agreement with Marriott International and its subsidiary Marriott Worldwide Corporation and a License, Services, and Development Agreement with Ritz-Carlton under which we are granted the exclusive right, for the terms of the agreements, to use certain Marriott and Ritz-Carlton marks and intellectual property in our vacation ownership business, the exclusive right to use the Grand Residences by Marriott marks and intellectual property in our residential real estate business and the non-exclusive right to use certain Ritz-Carlton marks and intellectual property in our residential real estate business.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements presented herein and discussed below include 100 percent 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 those variable interest entities for which Marriott Vacations Worldwide is the primary beneficiary in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as prepared in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

We refer throughout to (i) our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as our “Financial Statements,” (ii) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations as our “Statements of Operations,” (iii) our Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets,” and (iv) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as our “Cash Flows.”

Unless otherwise specified, each reference to a particular quarter in these Financial Statements means the twelve weeks ended on the date shown in the following table, rather than the corresponding calendar quarter:


Fiscal Year		Quarter-End Date
2013 Third Quarter		September 6, 2013
2013 Second Quarter		June 14, 2013
2013 First Quarter		March 22, 2013
2012 Third Quarter		September 7, 2012
2012 Second Quarter		June 15, 2012
2012 First Quarter		March 23, 2012

In our opinion, our Financial Statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position and 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, seasonal and short-term variations.

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, you should read these interim Financial Statements in conjunction with the audited annual Consolidated Financial Statements and notes to those Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2012, subject to the restatement of certain items noted below.

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, property and equipment valuation, loan loss reserves, Marriott Rewards customer loyalty program liability, self-insured medical plan reserves, equity-based compensation, income taxes, loss contingencies and exit and disposal activities reserves. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.

We have reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to our 2013 presentation, including establishing the consumer financing interest expense line on the Statements of Operations.

Consumer financing interest expense represents interest expense associated with the debt from our $250 million non-recourse warehouse credit facility (the “Warehouse Credit Facility”) and from the securitization of our vacation ownership notes receivable in the asset-backed securities (“ABS”) market. We distinguish consumer financing interest expense from all other interest expense because the debt associated with the consumer financing interest expense is secured by vacation ownership notes receivable that have been sold to bankruptcy remote special purpose entities and is generally non-recourse to us. See Footnote No. 11, “Variable Interest Entities” for further discussion of these facilities.

Restatement of Prior Financial Statements

In the second quarter of 2013, during the course of an internal review of certain sales documentation processes related to the sale of certain vacation ownership interests in properties associated with our Europe segment, we determined that the documentation we provided for certain sales of vacation ownership products was not strictly compliant. As a result, in accordance with applicable European regulation, the period of time during which purchasers of such interests may rescind their purchases was extended. We record revenues from the sale of vacation ownership products once the rescission period has ended. Originally, we recorded revenues from these sales of vacation ownership products based on the rescission periods in effect assuming compliant documentation had been provided to the purchasers rather than the extended periods. As a result, we recognized revenue in incorrect periods between fiscal years 2010 and 2013 and misstated revenues in our previously filed consolidated financial statements.

The documentation issue described above was limited to sales documentation provided to purchasers of certain interests in properties associated with our Europe segment. We took corrective measures and, as a result, compliant documentation is being provided to purchasers. In addition, we provided compliant documentation to purchasers for whom the extended rescission period had not yet expired. The cumulative impact of these items through December 28, 2012 was a reduction in reported income before income taxes of $12 million. The cumulative impact of these items through March 22, 2013 was a reduction in reported income before income taxes of $11 million. However, as compliant documentation was subsequently provided as part of our corrective measures, the extended rescission period for most of the purchases at issue ended during the second quarter of 2013. As of September 6, 2013, sales having a net pre-tax impact of $1 million had been rescinded. As a result, approximately $1 million and $11 million of this cumulative impact is reflected as an increase in income before income taxes for the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013, respectively.

The consolidated restated financial statements will include certain other corrections related to the timing of recording adjustments to previously reported deferred tax balances. Certain deferred tax assets were determined to not be realizable in future years and thus were eliminated, albeit in the incorrect fiscal year for the years ended December 28, 2012, December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The need for these corrections was identified while we were developing internal processes relating to deferred taxes after we became a standalone public company. In addition to the adjustments required as a result of the errors described above, the restated consolidated financial statements will include certain previously unrecorded immaterial adjustments to our financial statements for fiscal years 2010 and 2011 relating to cost reimbursements, which previously were recorded on a net basis.

The adjustments necessary to correct all of the errors have no impact on previously reported cash flows from operations and do not have a material impact on our balance sheet as of any date. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, an adjustment to the financial statements for each individual period presented is required to reflect the correction of the period-specific effects of the errors described above, if material. Based on our evaluation of relevant quantitative and qualitative factors, we determined the identified misstatements are not material to our individual prior period consolidated financial statements; however, the cumulative correction of the prior period errors would be material to our current year consolidated financial statements. Consequently, we will restate the consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 28, 2012 and December 30, 2011, and the Statements of Operations for the periods ended March 22, 2013 and March 23, 2012. We have restated the accompanying consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 28, 2012 and the Statement of Operations for the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended September 7, 2012. We have also restated the opening December 29, 2012 balances presented in our shareholders’ equity table as of September 6, 2013 (included in Footnote No. 12, “Shareholders’ Equity”) appearing herein, from amounts previously reported, to correct the prior period misstatements.

The cumulative impact of these misstatements on our 2012 annual and interim consolidated statements of cash flows is inconsequential as the impact on individual line items within operating activities is not material and had no impact on net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing or financing activities. However, we will restate the 2012 statement of cash flows when disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2014 to reflect changes to individual line items within operating activities.

The impact of these adjustments on the financial statements is detailed in the tables below.

New Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02 – “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU No. 2013-02”)

ASU No. 2013-02, which we adopted in the first quarter of 2013, amends existing guidance by requiring that additional information be disclosed about items reclassified (“reclassification adjustments”) out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The additional information includes a separate statement of the total change for each component of other comprehensive income (for example unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities or foreign currency items) and separate disclosure of both current-period other comprehensive income and reclassification adjustments. Entities are also required to present, either on the face of the income statement or in the notes to the financial statements, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income as separate line items of net income but only if the entire amount reclassified must be reclassified to net income in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity must cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

INCOME TAXES	2. INCOME TAXES Marriott Vacations Worldwide files U.S. consolidated federal and state tax returns, as well as separate tax filings for non-U.S. jurisdictions. On November 21, 2011, we entered into a Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement with Marriott International (as subsequently amended, the “Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement”), which governs the allocation of responsibility for federal, state, local and foreign income and other taxes related to taxable periods prior to and subsequent to the Spin-Off between Marriott International and Marriott Vacations Worldwide. Under this agreement, if any part of the Spin-Off fails to qualify for the tax treatment stated in the ruling Marriott International received from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) in connection with the Spin-Off, taxes imposed will be allocated between Marriott International and Marriott Vacations Worldwide and each will indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against the taxes so allocated. We had unrecognized tax benefits of less than $1 million at both September 6, 2013 and December 28, 2012 relating to contested tax assessments, which, if realized, would have impacted our effective tax rate. Marriott Vacations Worldwide has joined in the Marriott International U.S. Federal tax consolidated filing for all years prior to 2011 and the portion of 2011 up to the date of the Spin-Off. The IRS has examined Marriott International’s federal income tax returns, and it has settled all issues related to the timeshare business for the tax years through the Spin-Off. Although we do not anticipate that a significant impact to our unrecognized tax benefit balance will occur during the next fiscal year as a result of audits by other tax jurisdictions, the amount of our liability for unrecognized tax benefits could change as a result of these audits. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement, Marriott International is liable and shall pay the relevant tax authority for all taxes related to our taxable income prior to the Spin-Off. Our tax years subsequent to the Spin-Off are subject to examination by relevant tax authorities.

We record an estimate of expected uncollectibility on all notes receivable from vacation ownership purchasers as a reduction of revenues from the sale of vacation ownership products at the time we recognize profit on a vacation ownership product sale. We fully reserve for all defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable in addition to recording a reserve on the estimated uncollectible portion of the remaining vacation ownership notes receivable. For those vacation ownership notes receivable that are not in default, we assess collectibility based on pools of vacation ownership notes receivable because we hold large numbers of homogeneous vacation ownership notes receivable. We use the same criteria to estimate uncollectibility for non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable because they perform similarly. We estimate uncollectibility for each pool based on historical activity for similar vacation ownership notes receivable.

The following table summarizes the activity related to our vacation ownership notes receivable reserve for the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013:


*($ in millions)*	Non-Securitized Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Reserve			Securitized Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Reserve			Total

⁽¹⁾	Refers to our voluntary repurchase of previously securitized non-defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable to retire outstanding vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations.

⁽²⁾	Decrease in securitized vacation ownership notes receivable reserve and increase in non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable reserve was attributable to the transfer of the reserve when we voluntarily repurchased the vacation ownership notes receivable.

Although we consider loans to owners to be past due if we do not receive payment within 30 days of the due date, we suspend accrual of interest only on those loans that are over 90 days past due. We consider loans over 150 days past due to be in default. We apply payments we receive for vacation ownership notes receivable on non-accrual status first to interest, then to principal and any remainder to fees. We resume accruing interest when vacation ownership notes receivable are less than 90 days past due. We do not accept payments for vacation ownership notes receivable during the foreclosure process unless the amount is sufficient to pay all past due principal, interest, fees and penalties owed and fully reinstate the note. We write off uncollectible vacation ownership notes receivable against the reserve once we receive title of the vacation ownership products through the foreclosure or deed-in-lieu process or, in Europe or Asia Pacific, when revocation is complete. For both non-securitized and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable, we estimated average remaining default rates of 7.19 percent and 7.42 percent as of September 6, 2013 and December 28, 2012, respectively. A 0.5 percentage point increase in the estimated default rate would have resulted in an increase in our allowance for credit losses of $5 million as of September 6, 2013 and $6 million as of December 28, 2012.

The following table shows our recorded investment in non-accrual vacation ownership notes receivable, which are vacation ownership notes receivable that are 90 days or more past due:

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 and Accounts payable, which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

⁽¹⁾	Fair value of financial instruments has been determined using Level 3 inputs.

Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable

We estimate the fair value of our securitized vacation ownership notes receivable 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, that when applied in combination with pricing parameters, determine the fair value of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable.

Due to factors that impact the general marketability of our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable, as well as current market conditions, we bifurcate our 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 Europe or Asia. In some cases eligibility may also 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 following table shows the bifurcation of our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable into those eligible and not eligible for securitization based upon the aforementioned eligibility criteria:


*($ in millions)*	At September 6, 2013				At December 28, 2012
*($ in millions)*	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Vacation ownership notes receivable — eligible for securitization	$	16	$	20	$	127	$	159
Vacation ownership notes receivable — not eligible for securitization		178		178		202		202

Total vacation ownership notes receivable — non-securitized	$	194	$	198	$	329	$	361

We estimate the fair value of the portion of our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable that we believe will ultimately be securitized in the same manner as securitized vacation ownership notes receivable. We value the remaining non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable 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 interest rates of these loans are consistent with current market rates and the reserve for these vacation ownership notes receivable appropriately accounts for risks in default rates, prepayment rates and loan terms.

Non-Recourse Debt Associated with Securitized Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable

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 timeshare 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.

Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock of Consolidated Subsidiary

We estimate the fair value of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock of our consolidated subsidiary 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 includes an assessment of our subsidiary’s credit risk and the instrument’s contractual dividend rate.

Liability for Marriott Rewards Customer Loyalty Program

We determine the carrying value of the future redemption obligation of our liability for the Marriott Rewards customer loyalty program based on statistical formulas that project the timing of future redemption of Marriott Rewards Points based on historical levels, including estimates of the number of Marriott Rewards Points that will eventually be redeemed and the “breakage” for points that will never be redeemed. We estimate the fair value of the future redemption obligation by adjusting the contractual discount rate to an estimate of that of a market participant with similar nonperformance risk.

Other Liabilities

We estimate the fair value of our other liabilities that are financial instruments using expected future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates. These liabilities represent guarantee costs and reserves and deposit liabilities. The carrying values of our guarantee costs and reserves approximate their fair values. We estimate the fair value of our deposit liabilities primarily by discounting future payments at a risk-adjusted rate.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the reporting period. The dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based compensation awards is reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury stock method using average market prices during the period.

The table below illustrates the reconciliation of the earnings and number of shares used in our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.67	$	0.12	$	2.03	$	0.50

⁽¹⁾

The computations of diluted earnings per share exclude approximately 229,000 shares of common stock, the maximum issuable as of September 6, 2013 upon the vesting of certain performance-based awards, because the performance conditions required for such shares to vest were not achieved by the end of the reporting period.

⁽²⁾

The computations of diluted earnings per share exclude approximately 157,000 shares of common stock, the maximum issuable as of September 7, 2012 upon the vesting of certain performance-based awards, because the performance conditions required for such shares to vest were not achieved by the end of the reporting period.

For the twelve week and thirty-six week periods ended September 6, 2013, we have not excluded any stock options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) from our calculation of diluted earnings per share as no exercise prices were greater than the average market prices for the applicable period.

In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for calculating earnings per share, for the twelve week period ended September 7, 2012, we excluded 1,183 SARs with an exercise price of $32.74 from our calculation of diluted earnings per share because this exercise price was greater than the average market prices for the applicable period.

For the thirty-six week period ended September 7, 2012, we excluded 38,487 stock options and SARs, with exercise prices ranging from $28.16 to $32.74, from our calculation of diluted earnings per share because these exercise prices were greater than the average market prices for the applicable periods.

7. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

Guarantees

We have historically issued guarantees to certain lenders in connection with the provision of third-party financing for our sales of vacation ownership products for the North America and Asia Pacific segments. The terms of guarantees to lenders generally require us to fund if the purchaser fails to pay under the term of its note payable. Prior to the Spin-Off, Marriott International guaranteed our performance under these arrangements, and following the Spin-Off continues to hold a standby letter of credit related to the Asia Pacific segment guarantee. If Marriott International is required to fund any draws by lenders under this letter of credit it would seek recourse from us. Marriott International no longer guarantees our performance with respect to third-party financing for sales of products in the North America segment. We are entitled to recover any funding to third-party lenders related to these guarantees through reacquisition and resale of the vacation ownership product. Our commitments under these guarantees expire as notes mature or are repaid. The terms of the underlying notes extend to 2022.

The following table shows the maximum potential amount of future fundings for financing guarantees where we are the primary obligor and the carrying amount of the liability for expected future fundings.


*($ in millions)*	Maximum Potential Amount of Future Fundings At September 6, 2013		Liability for Expected Future Fundings At September 6, 2013

We included our liability of less than $1 million for expected future fundings for guarantees in our Balance Sheet at September 6, 2013 in the Other caption within Liabilities.

Commitments and Letters of Credit

In addition to the guarantees we note in the preceding paragraphs, as of September 6, 2013, 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 commitments under these contracts were $46 million, of which we expect $5 million, $14 million, $13 million, $8 million and $6 million will be paid in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

•

Commitments to subsidize vacation ownership associations were $2 million, which we expect will be paid in 2013.

•

Other purchase commitments of $1 million (approximately €1 million) that we expect to fund during 2014.

Surety bonds issued as of September 6, 2013 totaled $89 million, the majority of which were requested by federal, state or local governments related to our operations.

Prior to the Spin-Off, Marriott International also guaranteed our performance using letters of credit under certain agreements necessary to operate our Europe segment. Following the Spin-Off, Marriott International continues to hold less than $1 million of standby letters of credit related to these guarantees. If Marriott International is required to fund any draws under these letters of credit it would seek recourse from us.

Additionally, as of September 6, 2013, we had $4 million of letters of credit outstanding under our $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Corporate Credit Facility”).

Loss Contingencies

In 2012, we agreed to settle two lawsuits in which certain of our subsidiaries were defendants. The plaintiffs in the lawsuits, residential unit owners at The Ritz-Carlton Club and Residences, San Francisco (the “RCC San Francisco”), a project within our North America segment, questioned the adequacy of disclosures made prior to 2008, when our business was part of Marriott International, regarding bonds issued for that project under California’s Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the “Mello-Roos Act”) and their payment obligations with respect to such bonds. In March 2013, we agreed to settle a third lawsuit in which another residential unit owner at the RCC San Francisco had asserted similar claims. As a result of these matters, we recorded a charge of $41 million in the year ended December 28, 2012. In addition, as a result of the agreement to settle the third lawsuit in the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013 we reversed $1 million of previously recognized expense. An additional lawsuit was filed against us in June 2013 primarily related to disclosure provided to a purchaser of a residential unit at the RCC San Francisco. We dispute the material allegations in the complaint and intend to defend this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.

On December 21, 2012, Jon Benner, an owner of fractional interests in the RCC San Francisco, filed suit in Superior Court for the State of California, County of San Francisco against us and certain of our subsidiaries on behalf of a putative class consisting of all owners of fractional interests at the RCC San Francisco who allegedly did not receive proper notice of their payment obligations under the Mello-Roos Act. The plaintiff alleges that the disclosures made about bonds issued for the project under this Act and the payment obligations of fractional interest purchasers with respect to such bonds were inadequate, and this and other alleged statutory violations constitute intentional and negligent misrepresentation, fraud and fraudulent concealment. The relief sought includes damages in an unspecified amount, rescission of the purchases, restitution and disgorgement of profits. This lawsuit has been referred to a judicial referee. This lawsuit is distinct from the other lawsuits described above relating to the RCC San Francisco because the disclosure process for the sale of fractional interests differs from that applicable to the sale of whole-ownership units. We dispute the material allegations in the complaint and intend to defend this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.

On December 11, 2012, Steven B. Hoyt and Bradley A. Hoyt, purchasers of fractional interests in two Ritz-Carlton Club projects, filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota against us, certain of our subsidiaries and The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. on behalf of a putative class consisting of all purchasers of fractional interests at Ritz-Carlton Club projects. The plaintiffs allege that program changes beginning in 2009 caused an actionable decrease in the value of the fractional interests purchased. The relief sought includes declaratory and injunctive relief, damages in an unspecified amount, rescission of the purchases, restitution, disgorgement of profits, interest and attorneys’ fees. In response to our motion to dismiss the original complaint, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. We dispute the material allegations in the amended complaint and intend to continue to defend this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.

On January 30, 2013, Krishna and Sherrie Narayan and other owners of 12 residential units at the resort formerly known as The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Kapalua Bay (“Kapalua Bay”) were granted leave by the Court to file, and subsequently did file, an amended complaint related to a suit originally filed in Circuit Court for Maui County, Hawaii in June 2012 against us, certain of our subsidiaries, Marriott International, certain of its subsidiaries, and the joint venture in which we have an equity investment that developed and marketed vacation ownership and residential products at Kapalua Bay (the “Joint Venture”). In the original complaint, the plaintiffs alleged that defendants mismanaged funds of the owners association (the “Kapalua Bay Association”), created a conflict of interest by permitting their employees to serve on the Kapalua Bay Association’s board, and failed to disclose documents to which the plaintiffs were allegedly entitled. The amended complaint alleges breach of fiduciary duty, violations of the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act and the Hawaii condominium statute, intentional misrepresentation and concealment, unjust enrichment and civil conspiracy. The relief sought in the amended complaint includes injunctive relief, repayment of all sums paid to us and our subsidiaries and Marriott International and its subsidiaries, compensatory and punitive damages, and treble damages under the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act. We dispute the material allegations in the amended complaint and continue to defend this action vigorously. On August 23, 2013, the Hawaii Intermediate Court of Appeals reversed the Maui Circuit Court’s denial of our motion to compel arbitration on the claims asserted by plaintiffs. We have renewed that motion in the Circuit Court. Given the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.

On September 26, 2012, we filed an arbitration demand against the Kapalua Bay Association for reimbursement of amounts advanced on behalf of the Kapalua Bay Association pursuant to the terms of the management agreement under which one of our subsidiaries provided services to the Kapalua Bay Association. Effective December 31, 2012, the management agreement was terminated as discussed in Footnote No. 11, “Variable Interest Entities.” On April 15, 2013, the Kapalua Bay Association filed a counterclaim against certain of our subsidiaries in the arbitration proceeding. In the counterclaim, the Kapalua Bay Association alleges breach of contract, misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, unfair and deceptive trade practices and unjust enrichment. The relief sought consists of unspecified damages. We dispute the material allegations in the counterclaim and intend to defend this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of arbitration, we cannot estimate a range of potential liability, if any, at this time.

On June 19, 2013, Earl C. and Patricia A. Charles, owners of a fractional interest at Kapalua Bay, together with owners of 38 other fractional interests at Kapalua Bay, filed an amended complaint in the Circuit Court of the Second Circuit for the State of Hawaii against us, certain of our subsidiaries, Marriott International, certain of its subsidiaries, the Joint Venture, and other entities that have equity investments in the Joint Venture. The amended complaint supersedes a prior complaint that was not served on any defendant. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants failed to disclose the financial condition of the Joint Venture and the commitment of the defendants to the Joint Venture and that defendants’ actions constituted fraud and violated the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, the Hawaii Condominium Property Act and the Hawaii Time Sharing Plans statute. The relief sought includes compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, pre-judgment interest, declaratory relief, rescission and treble damages under the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act. We dispute the material allegations in the amended complaint and intend to defend this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.

On June 28, 2013, owners of 35 residences and lots at The Abaco Club on Winding Bay filed a complaint in Orange County, Florida Circuit Court against us, one of our subsidiaries, certain subsidiaries of Marriott International and the resort’s owners’ association, alleging that the defendants failed to maintain the golf course, golf clubhouse, roads, water supply system, and other facilities and equipment in a manner commensurate with a five-star luxury resort, and deficiencies in the quality of services provided at the resort. Plaintiffs also allege that the defendants failed to honor an obligation to extend a right of first offer to club owners in connection with plans to sell the club property. Plaintiffs allege statutory and common law claims for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and fraud and seek compensatory and punitive damages. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.

Other

We estimate the cash outflow associated with completing the phases of our existing portfolio of vacation ownership projects currently under development will be approximately $97 million, of which $15 million is included within liabilities on our Balance Sheet. This estimate is based on our current development plans, which remain subject to change, and we expect the phases currently under development will be completed by 2016.

	$	751	$	678

⁽¹⁾	Interest rates are as of September 6, 2013.

See Footnote No. 11, “Variable Interest Entities,” for a discussion of the collateral for the non-recourse debt associated with the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable and the Warehouse Credit Facility. All of our other debt was, and to the extent currently outstanding, is recourse to us but unsecured. The Warehouse Credit Facility currently terminates on September 5, 2015 and if not renewed, any amounts outstanding thereunder would become due and payable 13 months after termination, at which time all principal and interest collected with respect to the vacation ownership notes receivable held in the Warehouse Credit Facility would be redirected to the lenders to pay down the outstanding debt under the facility. We generally expect to securitize our vacation ownership notes receivable, including any vacation ownership notes receivable held in the Warehouse Credit Facility, in the asset-backed securities market once a year.

During the third quarter of 2013, we completed the securitization of a pool of $263 million of vacation ownership notes receivable. In connection with the securitization, investors purchased $250 million in vacation ownership loan backed notes (the “Notes”) from the MVW Owner Trust 2013-1 (the “2013-1 Trust”) in a private placement. The 2013-1 Trust issued two classes of Notes: $224 million of Class A Notes and $26 million of Class B Notes. The Class A Notes have an interest rate of 2.15 percent and the Class B Notes have an interest rate of 2.74 percent, for an overall weighted average interest rate of 2.21 percent.

Although no cash borrowings were outstanding under our Revolving Corporate Credit Facility as of September 6, 2013, any amounts that are borrowed under that facility, as well as obligations with respect to letters of credit issued pursuant to that facility, are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets and the assets of the guarantors of that facility, in each case including inventory, subject to certain exceptions.

The following table shows scheduled future principal payments for our debt:


*($ in millions)* Year	Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations ⁽¹⁾		Other Debt		Total

Balance at September 6, 2013	$	747	$	4	$	751

⁽¹⁾	The vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations are non-recourse to us.

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.

We paid cash for interest, net of amounts capitalized, of $26 million in the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013 and $33 million in the thirty-six weeks ended September 7, 2012.

Debt Associated with Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations

Each of our securitized vacation ownership notes receivable pools is subject to 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 (related to the interests we retained) to accelerate the principal payments to investors based on the subordination of the different tranches until the performance trigger is cured. During the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013, and as of September 6, 2013, no pools were out of compliance with performance triggers. As of September 6, 2013, we had 7 securitized vacation ownership notes receivable pools outstanding.

Renewal of Warehouse Credit Facility

On September 6, 2013, we entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to certain of the agreements associated with the Warehouse Credit Facility. As a result of the Amendment, the revolving period was extended to September 5, 2015, and borrowings under the Warehouse Credit Facility bear interest at a rate based on the one-month LIBOR and bank conduit commercial paper rates plus 1.2 percent per annum and are generally limited at any point to the sum of the products of the applicable advance rates and the eligible vacation ownership notes receivable at such time. The Amendment also expands the eligibility for certain collateral by permitting some vacation ownership notes receivable from domestic borrowers with low or no credit scores to be securitized through the Warehouse Credit Facility. Other terms of the Warehouse Credit Facility are substantially similar to those in effect prior to the amendment and restatement. In addition to the amendments described above, the Amendment also includes certain modifications intended to comply with provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, initially published in December 2010 and generally referred to as “Basel III.”

MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK OF CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY	9. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK OF CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY In October 2011, our subsidiary, MVW US Holdings, Inc. (“MVW US Holdings”) issued $40 million of its mandatorily redeemable Series A (non-voting) preferred stock to Marriott International as part of Marriott International’s internal reorganization prior to the Spin-Off. Subsequently, Marriott International sold all of this preferred stock to third-party investors. For the first five years after issuance, the Series A preferred stock will pay an annual cash dividend equal to the five-year U.S. Treasury Rate as of October 19, 2011, plus a spread of 10.958 percent, for a total annual cash dividend rate of 12 percent. On the fifth anniversary of issuance, the annual cash dividend rate will be reset to the five-year U.S. Treasury Rate in effect on such date plus the same 10.958 percent spread. The Series A preferred stock is mandatorily redeemable by MVW US Holdings upon the tenth anniversary of the date of issuance but can be redeemed at our option after five years, beginning in October 2016. The Series A preferred stock has an aggregate liquidation preference of $40 million plus any accrued and unpaid dividends and an additional premium if liquidation occurs during the first five years after the issuance of the preferred stock. As of September 6, 2013, 1,000 shares of Series A preferred stock were authorized, of which 40 shares were issued and outstanding. The dividends are recorded as a component of Interest expense as the Series A preferred stock is treated as a liability for accounting purposes.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Disclosure Of Compensation Related Costs Sharebased Payments [Abstract]

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

A total of 6 million shares are authorized for issuance under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Marriott Vacations Worldwide Stock Plan”). As of September 6, 2013, approximately 2 million shares were available for grants under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Stock Plan.

For share-based awards with service-only vesting conditions, we measure compensation expense related to share-based payment transactions with our employees and non-employee directors at fair value on the grant date. With respect to transactions with our employees, we recognize this expense in the Statement of Operations over the vesting period during which the employees provide service in exchange for the award; with respect to non-employee directors, we recognize this expense on the grant date. For share-based arrangements with performance vesting conditions, we recognize compensation expense once it is probable that the corresponding performance condition will be achieved.

We recorded share-based compensation expense related to award grants to our officers, directors and employees of $3 million for each of the twelve weeks ended September 6, 2013 and September 7, 2012, and $8 million for each of the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013 and September 7, 2012. Our deferred compensation liability related to unvested awards held by our employees totaled $16 million and $14 million at September 6, 2013 and December 28, 2012 respectively.

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”)

We granted 199,895 RSUs to our employees and non-employee directors during the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013. The RSUs granted to employees generally vest over four year periods in annual installments commencing one year after the date of the grant. The RSUs granted to non-employee directors were vested at the date of the grant. RSUs granted in the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013 had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $40.43.

During the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013, we granted RSUs with performance vesting conditions to members of management. The number of RSUs earned, if any, will be determined following the end of a three-year performance period based upon our cumulative achievement over that period of specific quantitative operating financial measures. For the RSUs with performance-based vesting criteria issued during the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013, the maximum amount of RSUs that may vest under the performance-based RSUs is approximately 72,000.

Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”)

We granted 66,422 SARs to our employees during the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013. These SARs had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $21.68 and a weighted average exercise price of $39.93. SARs generally expire ten years after the date of grant and both vest and may be exercised in cumulative installments of one quarter of the number of SARs granted at the end of each of the first four years following the date of grant.

We use the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the stock options or SARs granted. For SARs granted under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Stock Plan in the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013, the expected stock price volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility from the stock prices of a group of identified peer companies. The average expected life was calculated using the simplified method. 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 expected annual dividend per share was $0 based on our expected dividend rate.

The following table outlines the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of grants during the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013:


Expected volatility	57.55	%
Dividend yield	0.00	%
Risk-free rate	1.02	%
Expected term (in years)	6.25

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

11. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities, we analyze our variable interests, including loans, guarantees and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which we have a variable interest is a variable interest entity. Our analysis includes both quantitative and qualitative reviews. We base our quantitative analysis on the forecasted cash flows of the entity, and our qualitative analysis on our review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability, and relevant financial agreements. We also use our qualitative analyses to determine if we must consolidate a variable interest entity because we are its primary beneficiary.

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 us and transfer the economic risks and substantially all the benefits of the loans to third parties. In a vacation ownership notes receivable securitization, various classes of debt securities issued by the special purpose entities are generally collateralized by a single tranche of transferred assets, which consist of vacation ownership notes receivable. We service the vacation ownership notes receivable. With each vacation ownership notes receivable securitization, we may retain a portion of the securities, subordinated tranches, interest-only strips, subordinated interests in accrued interest and fees on the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable or, in some cases, overcollateralization and cash reserve accounts.

We created these entities to serve as a mechanism for holding assets and related liabilities, and the entities have no equity investment at risk, making them variable interest entities. 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.

The following table shows consolidated assets, which are collateral for the obligations of these variable interest entities, and consolidated liabilities included in our Balance Sheet at September 6, 2013:


*($ in millions)*	Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations		Warehouse Credit Facility		Total

Net Cash Flows	$	20		$	(94	)

Under the terms of our vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations, we have the right at our option to repurchase defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable at the outstanding principal balance. The transaction documents typically limit such repurchases to 15 to 20 percent of the transaction’s initial vacation ownership notes receivable principal balance. Our maximum exposure to loss relating to the entities that own these vacation ownership notes receivable is the overcollateralization amount (the difference between the loan collateral balance and the balance on 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 an equity investment in, and notes receivable due from a variable interest entity that previously developed and marketed vacation ownership and residential products in Hawaii pursuant to a joint venture arrangement. We concluded that the entity is a variable interest entity because the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional support from other venture parties. We determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of this entity, as power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance is shared among the variable interest holders and, therefore, we do not consolidate the entity. We provided a completion guarantee in favor of the project lenders for which the joint venture has delivered a completed operational project. Although we have not received a release of the guarantee, we do not believe we have any exposure for funding under the guarantee. In 2009, we fully impaired our equity investment in the entity and in certain notes receivable due from the entity. In 2010, the continued application of equity losses to our investment in the remaining outstanding notes receivable balance reduced its carrying value to zero. In addition, the venture was unable to pay promissory notes that matured on December 31, 2010 and August 1, 2011. Subsequently, the lenders issued a notice of default to the venture. The lenders initiated foreclosure proceedings with respect to unsold interests in the project. A foreclosure auction was held and, on January 31, 2013, a bid was accepted and confirmed. The sale was completed, and on June 13, 2013, we received $7 million of cash as a partial repayment of our previously fully reserved receivables due from the entity.

We gave notice of breach or termination of various agreements, including management agreements with the owners’ associations at the project, marketing and sales agreements with the venture, and other agreements pursuant to which we provided services to the venture and, as we were unable to reach agreement with the owners’ associations with respect to our continued provision of services, termination of these agreements was effective on December 31, 2012. During the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013, we recorded $7 million of expense to increase our accrual for remaining costs expected to be incurred relating to our interests in this joint venture exclusive of any outstanding litigation matters discussed in Footnote No. 7, “Contingencies and Commitments.” Including reserves for outstanding receivables, at September 6, 2013, we have an accrual of $16 million for potential future funding, representing our remaining expected exposure to loss related to our involvement with this entity. In addition, several owners at the project have filed suit against several parties involved in the project, including us and certain of our subsidiaries, which could result in additional exposures which are not estimable at this time.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

13. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

We define our reportable segments based on the way in which the chief operating decision maker, currently our chief executive officer, manages the operations of the company for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. We operate in three reportable business segments:

•

In our North America segment, we develop, market, sell and manage vacation ownership and related products under the Marriott Vacation Club and Grand Residences by Marriott brands. We also develop, market and sell vacation ownership and related products under the Ritz-Carlton Destination Club brand, as well as whole ownership residential products under the Ritz-Carlton Residences brand.

•

In our Europe segment, we develop, market, sell and manage vacation ownership products in several locations in Europe.

•

In our Asia Pacific segment, we develop, market, sell and manage the Marriott Vacation Club, Asia Pacific, a right-to-use points program that we specifically designed to appeal to vacation preferences of the Asian market, as well as a weeks-based right-to-use product.

Effective December 29, 2012, we combined the reporting of the financial results of the former Luxury segment with the North America segment based upon our decision to scale back separate development activity for the Luxury market and to aggregate future marketing and sales of upscale and luxury inventory. Existing service standards and on-site management remain unaffected by our reporting changes. Prior year amounts have been recast for consistency with the current year’s presentation.

We evaluate 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 other financing expenses to our segments. During the twelve weeks ended March 22, 2013, we reviewed the allocation of general and administrative expenses to our reportable segments as a result of the realignment of our management structure. Based on this review, we determined to no longer allocate certain general and administrative expenses to our reportable segments. This change, which was effective December 29, 2012, had no impact on our Financial Statements for any prior period. Prior period reportable segment information has been adjusted to reflect the change in reportable segment reporting.

We include interest income specific to segment activities within the appropriate segment. We allocate other gains and losses and equity in earnings or losses from our joint ventures to each of our segments as appropriate. Corporate and other represents that portion of our revenues and other gains or losses that are not allocable to our segments.

ORGANIZATIONAL AND SEPARATION RELATED CHARGES	14. ORGANIZATIONAL AND SEPARATION RELATED CHARGES Since the Spin-Off, Marriott International has continued to provide us with certain information technology and other administrative services pursuant to transition services agreements. In connection with our continued organizational and separation related activities, we have incurred certain expenses to complete our separation from Marriott International. These costs primarily relate to establishing our own information technology systems and services, independent payroll functions and reorganizing certain existing administrative organizations to support our stand-alone public company needs. We expect these efforts to continue through 2014. Organizational and separation related charges as reflected in our Statements of Operations, were $4 million and $3 million for the twelve weeks ended September 6, 2013 and September 7, 2012, respectively, and $7 million and $9 million for the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013 and September 7, 2012, respectively. In addition, $4 million and $1 million of additional separation related charges was capitalized to Property and equipment on our Balance Sheets during the thirty-six weeks ended September 6, 2013 and September 7, 2012, respectively.
