Marriott Vacations Worldwide (“MVW”) Raises Full Year 2022 Guidance
ORLANDO, Fla. – June 16, 2022 – In conjunction with its investor day, Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: VAC) (the “Company”) is raising its full year guidance.
“We continue to see very high owner occupancies at our resorts, enabling us to drive strong tour growth and contract sales during the second quarter of 2022. As a result of this, combined with the continued strength in our VPGs, we are increasing our full year contract sales guidance by $100 million for 2022,” said Stephen P. Weisz, chief executive officer.
The Company continues to expect Adjusted development profit margin to remain strong for the full year 2022. However, with owner occupancies exceeding expectations, the Company has allocated more rental inventory for owner usage to increase their vacation choices. Similarly, the Company continues to see higher owner usage at resorts affiliated with Interval International, which has impacted member deposits and exchanges. Given the increased owner usage, the updated guidance reflects the expected impact on rental and exchange revenue and profit this year. The Company expects owner usage to normalize in 2023.
“Notwithstanding the increased owner usage, we expect our strong Adjusted development profit margin on higher contract sales will allow us to deliver full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted free cash flow above our previous guidance,” said Tony Terry, executive vice president and chief financial officer.
