Announces Repayment of $250 Million of Senior Unsecured Notes and
Intention to Redeem $250 Million of Senior Secured Notes

Board of Directors Reinstates Common Stock Dividend and
Authorizes the Repurchase of up to $250 Million of its Common Stock

ORLANDO, Fla. – September 13, 2021 – Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: VAC) (“MVW”) is updating its outlook for its third quarter 2021 results in conjunction with its participation at the J.P. Morgan Gaming, Lodging, Restaurant & Leisure Management Access Forum today.

Third Quarter Update
In its Vacation Ownership business, the Company continues to experience strong occupancies at most of its resorts, despite modestly elevated cancellation trends in certain markets due to the COVID-19 delta variant and the fires impacting Lake Tahoe.  As a result, the Company expects contract sales for the third quarter of 2021 to be towards the lower end of original guidance of $380 million to $410 million, continuing to illustrate the resiliency of its leisure-focused business model.

“With our product offerings resonating with customers more than ever, we expect our Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter to approach 2019 levels,” said Stephen P. Weisz, chief executive officer.

Given the strong performance of the business, anticipated free cash flow generation and limited future inventory purchase commitments, the Company is pleased to make the following announcements on its capital allocation strategy:

Covenant Waiver Termination
On September 9, 2021, MVW elected to terminate early its waiver under its corporate credit facility.

$500 Million of Corporate Debt Repayment
The Company will use excess liquidity to prepay the remaining $250 million of its 6.500% senior unsecured notes due 2026 on September 15, 2021.  In addition, the Company delivered a redemption notice of $250 million of its outstanding 6.125% senior secured notes due 2025 for October 2021.

Dividend Reinstatement and Share Repurchase Authorization
The Company is announcing today that its Board of Directors reinstated a $0.54 per share dividend of common stock payable on October 7, 2021 to shareholders of record as of September 23, 2021.  Additionally, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million of its common stock.

The Company will host a fireside chat session today at 2:10 p.m. ET.  A live webcast will be available in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at ir.mvwc.com. The webcast will also be available on the Company’s website for 30 days following the call.  The Company currently expects to report financial results for the third quarter 2021 on or about November 8, 2021.
