"During the second quarter Wyndham Destinations completed the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts to become a pure-play vacation ownership and exchange company," said Michael D. Brown, president and chief executive officer of Wyndham Destinations.
"Our team has executed extremely well on our key strategic priorities over a busy period. We are very pleased with a strong second quarter to finish a robust first half of 2018, with solid results in both of our operating segments. During the second quarter, we increased further adjusted EBITDA by 7%, EBITDA margin by 90 basis points, new owner mix by 260 basis points and initiated our first post-spin buyback of Wyndham Destinations shares."
"Looking ahead, we are committed to driving growth in our core business and delivering value to our shareholders. Wyndham Destinations is on track and today we reaffirm our full-year revenue and further adjusted EBITDA guidance and commitment to return capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases," said Brown.Results From Continuing OperationsOn May 9, 2018, the Company sold its European vacation rentals business to an affiliate of Platinum Equity, LLC, generating net proceeds of $1.03 billion and on May 31, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of its hotel business into a separate publicly traded company. Wyndham Destinations is the world’s largest vacation ownership and exchange company. For all periods presented, the results of operations for the hotel business and the European vacation rentals business have been classified as discontinued operations.
During the second quarter of 2018, reported revenues, loss from continuing operations and loss from continuing operations per diluted share from continuing operations were $1.0 billion, $(12) million and $(0.12), respectively. This compared to reported revenues of $978 million, income from continuing operations of $14 million and diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.13 in the second quarter of 2017. Total second quarter 2018 adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 7% to $243 million.Company Results — Further AdjustedSecond quarter 2018 and 2017 further adjusted results are presented as if Wyndham Destinations were separated from Wyndham Hotels & Resorts for all periods presented.

Further adjusted EBITDA was $249 million compared to $233 million in the second quarter of 2017 and was within the Company's guidance of $240 million to $250 million.
In the second quarter of 2018, further adjusted EBITDA as compared to adjusted EBITDA included $5 million of incremental license fee expense and other changes being effected in conjunction with the spin-off for the first two months of the second quarter of 2018. In addition, results excluded $11 million of corporate and other costs to reflect the Company’s position as if the spin-off of its hotel business and the sale of its European vacation rentals business had occurred for all periods presented.
In the second quarter of 2017, further adjusted EBITDA, as compared to adjusted EBITDA, included $7 million of incremental license fee expense and other changes being effected in conjunction with the spin-off for the entire second quarter of 2017. In addition, results excluded $12 million of corporate and other costs to reflect the Company’s position as if the spin-off of its hotel business and the sale of its European vacation rentals business had occurred for all periods presented.
Vacation ownership revenues increased 3%, primarily due to a 7% increase in gross vacation ownership interest (VOI) sales of $602 million and offset by increases in the mix of fee-for-service sales as well as an increase in the loan loss provision. Tour flow increased 3% and Volume Per Guest (VPG) increased 5%. The mix of new owner sales increased 260 basis points year-over-year and new owner sales volume increased 16%.
Vacation Ownership further adjusted EBITDA increased 5% to $188 million, primarily due to revenue growth of 3%, consumer finance income growth and cost efficiencies in general and administrative expenses.

The provision for loan loss as a percentage of gross VOI sales, net of fee-for-service sales was 21.4% at the end of the second quarter of 2018. The provision for loan loss increased to $126 million, with the $16 million year-over-year increase due to $7 million of higher financing volume and $9 million of higher default activity. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of the Company's loan portfolio was 19.5% at the end of the second quarter of 2018, compared to 19.2% at the end of first quarter of 2018.

In determining further adjusted net income, further adjusted EBITDA and further adjusted diluted EPS, the Company excludes certain items which are otherwise included in determining the comparable GAAP financial measures, as described in Table 5 of this press release. The Company is providing guidance on a further adjusted basis for net income, EBITDA and diluted EPS. This guidance is presented only on a non-GAAP further adjusted basis because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is available without unreasonable effort, primarily due to uncertainties relating to the occurrence or amount of these adjustments that may arise in the future. Unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact the Company’s financial results. Please refer to Table 8 for further information.Conference Call InformationWyndham Destinations will hold a conference call with investors to discuss the Company’s results and outlook today at 8:30 a.m. ET.

The Company utilizes non-GAAP measures on a regular basis to assess performance of its reportable segments and allocate resources. 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 operating performance. Management also internally uses these measures to assess our operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and in evaluating or making selected compensation decisions. Exclusion of items in the Company’s non-GAAP presentation should not be considered an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Full reconciliations of GAAP results to the comparable non-GAAP measures for the reported periods appear in the financial tables section of the press release.About Wyndham DestinationsWyndham Destinations (NYSE:WYND) believes in putting the world on vacation.
