PARSIPPANY, N.J., April 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (NYSE:WYN) today announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • First quarter adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $1.12, an increase of 9% from $1.03 in the first quarter of 2015. Reported diluted EPS was $0.84, compared with $1.00 in the first quarter of 2015.
  • First quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA increased 4%, or 6% on a currency neutral basis and excluding acquisitions compared with the first quarter of 2015.
  • The Company repurchased 2.5 million shares of its common stock for $175 million during the quarter.

"We're off to a good start this year," said Stephen P. Holmes, chairman and CEO. "We continue to execute and innovate across our businesses to drive growth, profitability and shareholder value.  Our businesses are well positioned for long term growth and they are resilient, regardless of economic and industry cycle dynamics.  Of course, disciplined capital allocation continues to be a hallmark and commitment of our company." 

FIRST QUARTER 2016 OPERATING RESULTS

First quarter revenues were $1.3 billion, an increase of 3% from the prior year period. 

First quarter adjusted EBITDA was $291 million, compared with $279 million in the prior year period, an increase of 4%.  Year-over-year adjusted EBITDA comparisons were adversely affected by foreign currency effects of $6 million in 2016.  On a currency-neutral basis and excluding acquisitions, adjusted EBITDA increased 6%.

Adjusted net income was $127 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, compared with $126 million, or $1.03 per diluted share for the same period in 2015.  Adjusted net income and earnings per share benefited from solid operating results, but were reduced by higher interest expense and higher depreciation and amortization.  EPS also benefited from the Company's share repurchase program. 

Reported net income for the first quarter of 2016 was $96 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, compared with $122 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015.  Reported net income in both periods reflects several items excluded from adjusted net income.  The net result of these items unfavorably impacted first quarter 2016 net income by $31 million and unfavorably impacted first quarter 2015 net income by $4 million.  Full reconciliations of adjusted net income to GAAP results appear in Table 8 of this press release. 

Free cash flow was $218 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared with $197 million for the same period in 2015.  The increase reflects solid operating results and the timing of capital expenditures, partially offset by a $24 million unfavorable impact from the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency.  For the three months ended March 31, 2016, net cash provided by operating activities was $261 million, compared with $253 million in the prior year period.  The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. 

FIRST QUARTER 2016 BUSINESS UNIT RESULTS

Hotel Group

Revenues were $295 million in the first quarter of 2016, a 1% increase compared with the first quarter 2015.  Despite weaker RevPAR, adjusted EBITDA grew 6% to $84 million reflecting growth in our Wyndham Rewards credit card program, strong performance at our owned hotels and expense management.

First quarter domestic RevPAR was flat.  In constant currency, total system-wide RevPAR declined 1.6% compared with the first quarter of 2015, which reflects continued weakness in domestic and Canadian oil markets and higher unit growth in lower RevPAR countries such as China. 

As of March 31, 2016, the Company's hotel system consisted of approximately 7,830 properties and approximately 679,100 rooms, a 1.8% net room increase compared with the first quarter of 2015.  The development pipeline included over 1,000 hotels and over 124,000 rooms, of which 61% were international and 65% were new construction.

Destination Network (formerly Vacation Exchange and Rentals)

Revenues were $385 million in the first quarter of 2016, a 4% increase compared with the first quarter of 2015. In constant currency and excluding acquisitions, revenues increased 5%.

Exchange revenues were $182 million, down 2% compared with the first quarter of 2015. In constant currency, exchange revenues and exchange revenue per member were flat, as was the average number of members.

Vacation rental revenues were $183 million, a 10% increase compared with the first quarter of 2015.  In constant currency and excluding the impact of acquisitions, vacation rental revenues were up 9%, reflecting a 7.0% increase in transaction volume and a 2.3% increase in average net price per vacation rental. 

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2016 was $105 million, a 1% increase compared with the first quarter of 2015.  On a currency-neutral basis and excluding the impact of acquisitions, adjusted EBITDA increased 3% compared with the prior year period.

Vacation Ownership

Revenues were $641 million in the first quarter of 2016, a 4% increase over the first quarter of 2015. 

Gross VOI sales were $428 million in the first quarter of 2016, an increase of 10% compared with the first quarter of 2015.  Volume per guest (VPG) for the quarter increased 3.8% in constant currency and tour flow increased 6.5%.

EBITDA for the first quarter of 2016 was $136 million, an increase of 5% compared with the first quarter of 2015, reflecting higher sales volume and stronger resort management and consumer finance results, partially offset by an increase in the provision for loan losses. 

OTHER ITEMS

  • The Company repurchased 2.5 million shares of common stock for $175 million during the first quarter of 2016.  From April 1 through April 25, 2016, the Company repurchased an additional 0.6 million shares for $45 million
  • Reported net interest expense in the first quarter of 2016 was $31 million, compared with $23 million in the first quarter of 2015, reflecting the $350 million 5.10% bond issued in September 2015 and the absence of a fixed-to-floating interest rate swap terminated in 2015.
  • Depreciation and amortization in the first quarter of 2016 was $62 million, compared with $56 million in the first quarter of 2015, reflecting new projects that were placed into service. 

Balance Sheet Information as March 31, 2016:

  • Cash and cash equivalents of $318 million, compared with $171 million at December 31, 2015
  • Vacation ownership contract receivables, net, of $2.7 billion, unchanged from December 31, 2015
  • Vacation ownership and other inventory of $1.3 billion, unchanged from December 31, 2015
  • Securitized vacation ownership debt of $2.1 billion, unchanged from December 31, 2015
  • Long-term debt of $3.3 billion, compared with $3.1 billion at December 31, 2015. The remaining borrowing capacity on the revolving credit facility, net of commercial paper borrowings, was $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2016, compared with $1.4 billion at December 31, 2015.

A schedule of debt is included in Table 5 of this press release.

For the full year 2016, the Company reiterates the following guidance:

  • Revenues of approximately $5.800 - $5.950 billion.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $1.375 - $1.400 billion.

For the full year 2016, the Company updates the following guidance:

  • Adjusted diluted EPS of approximately $5.61 - $5.75 based on a diluted share count of 113 million, up from $5.46 - $5.60 based on a diluted share count of 116 million.

The Company will post guidance information on its website following the conference call.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Financial information discussed in this press release includes non-GAAP measures, which include or exclude certain items.  These non-GAAP measures differ from reported GAAP results and are intended to illustrate what management believes are relevant period-over-period comparisons and are helpful to investors as an additional tool for further understanding and assessing the Company's ongoing core operating performance.  Exclusion of items in our non-GAAP presentation should not be considered an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.  A reconciliation of reported GAAP results to the comparable non-GAAP information appears in the financial tables section of the press release.  It is not practicable to provide a reconciliation of forecasted adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because certain items cannot be reasonably estimated or predicted at this time.  Any such items could be significant to the Company's reported results.

OPERATING RESULTS OF REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

(In millions)
















In addition to other measures, management evaluates the operating results of each of its reportable segments based upon net revenues and "EBITDA",
which is defined as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (excluding consumer financing interest), early extinguishment of
debt, interest income (excluding consumer financing revenues) and income taxes, each of which is presented on the Company's Consolidated Statements
of Income.  The Company believes that EBITDA is a useful measure of performance for the Company's segments which when considered with GAAP
measures, gives a more complete understanding of its operating performance.  The Company's presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to
similarly-titled measures used by other companies. 
















The following tables summarize net revenues and EBITDA for the Company's reportable segments, as well as reconcile EBITDA to Net income for the
three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

OPERATING STATISTICS




GLOSSARY OF TERMS




















Hotel Group


































Number of Rooms: Represents the number of rooms at hotel group properties at the end of the period which are either (i) under franchise and/or management agreements, or company owned
and (ii) properties under affiliation agreements for which the Company receives a fee for reservation and/or other services provided. 





















Average Occupancy Rate: Represents the percentage of available rooms occupied during the period.




















Average Daily Rate (ADR): Represents the average rate charged for renting a lodging room for one day. 




















RevPAR:  Represents revenue per available room and is calculated by multiplying average occupancy rate by ADR. Comparable RevPAR represents RevPAR of hotels which are included in
both periods.





















Destination Network


































Average Number of Members:  Represents members in our vacation exchange programs who paid annual membership dues as of the end of the period or who are within the allowed grace
period. For additional fees, such participants are entitled to exchange intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company's vacation exchange business. In addition, certain
participants may exchange intervals for other leisure-related services and products.



















Exchange Revenue Per Member: Represents total annualized revenues generated from fees associated with memberships, exchange transactions, member-related rentals and other servicing for
the period divided by the average number of vacation exchange members during the period. 





















Vacation Rental Transactions:  Represents the number of transactions that are generated in connection with customers booking their vacation rental stays through one of our vacation brands.
One rental transaction is recorded for each standard one-week rental.





















Average Net Price Per Vacation Rental: Represents the net rental price generated from renting vacation properties to customers and other related rental servicing fees divided by the number of
vacation rental transactions.





















Vacation Ownership


































Gross Vacation Ownership Interest Sales: Represents sales of vacation ownership interest (VOIs), including WAAM sales, before the net effect of percentage-of-completion accounting and
loan loss provisions.  See Table 9 for a reconciliation of Gross VOI sales to vacation ownership interest sales.





















Tours: Represents the number of tours taken by guests in our efforts to sell VOIs.




















Volume per Guest (VPG): Represents Gross VOI sales (excluding tele-sales upgrades, which are non-tour upgrade sales) divided by the number of tours.  The Company has excluded non-tour
upgrade sales in the calculation of VPG because non-tour upgrade sales are generated by a different marketing channel.  See Table 9 for a detail of tele-sales upgrades for 2013-2016.



















General


































Constant Currency: Represents a comparison eliminating the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods (foreign currency translation).




















Currency-Neutral: Represents a comparison eliminating the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods (foreign currency translation) and the impact caused by any foreign
exchange related activities (i.e., hedges, balance sheet remeasurements and/or adjustments).

(a)

The Company's vacation ownership contract receivables are securitized through bankruptcy-remote special purpose entities ("SPEs") that are consolidated within our financial statements. These bankruptcy-remote
SPEs are legally separate from the Company. The receivables held by the bankruptcy-remote SPEs are not available to the Company's creditors and legally are not the Company's assets. Additionally, the non-
recourse debt that is securitized through the SPEs is legally not a liability of the Company and thus, the creditors of these SPEs have no recourse to the Company for principal and interest.

(b)

Represents a non-recourse vacation ownership bank conduit facility with a term through August 2017 and borrowing capacity of $650 million. As of March 31, 2016, this facility had a remaining borrowing capacity
of $529 million.

This debt is collateralized by $2,548 million, $2,576 million and $2,609, of underlying vacation ownership contract receivables and related assets as of March 31, 2016, December 31, 2015, and March 31, 2015.
respectively.

(d)

Represents a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility that expires in July 2020. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $1 million of outstanding letters of credit. After considering outstanding commercial paper
borrowings of $343 million, the remaining borrowing capacity was $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2016.

(e)

Represents commercial paper programs of $1.25 billion with a remaining borrowing capacity of $907 million as of March 31, 2016.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION

(In millions)














FREE CASH FLOW












We define free cash flow to be net cash provided by operating activities less property and equipment additions which we also refer to as capital expenditures.


We believe free cash flow to be a useful operating performance measure to evaluate the ability of our operations to generate cash for uses other than capital expenditures and, after debt
service and other obligations, our ability to grow our business through acquisitions, development advances and equity investments, as well as our ability to return cash to shareholders
through dividends and share repurchases. A limitation of using free cash flow versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities
and net cash used in financing activities as a means for evaluating Wyndham Worldwide is that free cash flow does not represent the total cash movement for the period as detailed in the
consolidated statement of cash flows.














The following table provides more details on the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measure and the related reconciliation between
these financial measures:
