NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1: Organization and Basis of Presentation

Our Spin-off from Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc.

On January 3, 2017, the previously announced spin-off was completed by way of a pro rata distribution of Hilton Grand Vacations Inc.’s (“Hilton Grand Vacations,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “HGV” or the “Company”) common stock to Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (“Hilton”) stockholders. Each Hilton stockholder received one share of our common stock for every ten shares of Hilton common stock. As a result of the spin-off, we became a separate publicly-traded company on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “HGV,” and Hilton did not retain any ownership interest in our company.

In connection with the completion of the spin-off, we entered into agreements with Hilton (who at the time was a related party) and other third parties, including licenses to use the Hilton brand. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the effect of these agreements. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we incurred $39 million and $46 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we incurred $137 million and $150 million, respectively, in costs relating to the agreements entered with Hilton. See Key Agreements Related to the Spin-Off section in Part I - Item 1. Business of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further information.

Prior to the spin-off, Hilton maintained a share-based compensation plan for the benefit of its officers, directors and employees which was presented as a component of Net transfers (to) from Parent, a financing activity, on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Subsequent to the spin-off, share-based compensation expense is presented as a component of operating activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Our Business

Hilton Grand Vacations is a global timeshare company engaged in developing, marketing, selling and managing timeshare resorts primarily under the Hilton Grand Vacations brand. Our operations primarily consist of: selling vacation ownership intervals (“VOIs”) for us and third parties; operating resorts; financing and servicing loans provided to consumers for their timeshare purchases; and managing our points-based Hilton Grand Vacations Club exchange program (the “Club”). As of September 30, 2017, we had 48 timeshare properties, comprised of 8,101 units, located in the United States (“U.S.”) and Europe.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein include 100 percent of our assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows and all entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. Through the date of the spin-off, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein were prepared on a stand-alone basis and were derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Hilton.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Although we believe the disclosures made are adequate to prevent information presented from being misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2017.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and, accordingly, ultimate results could differ from those estimates. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in our opinion, reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

We review our estimate of the expected redemption of expired prepaid discounted vacation packages (“packages”) on an ongoing basis. We only reduce the liability for expired packages when a package is redeemed or the likelihood of redemption is remote. This review considers factors such as historical experience, current business practices for pursuing individuals to redeem

expired packages and the sufficiency and reliability of data available following a change in those redemption business practices. Previously, we concluded that redemption of an expired package was remote once a pa ckage had been expired for six months and therefore retained the liability until six months after expiration. During the review in the second quarter of 2017, we determined we then had sufficiently reliable updated information under current business practi ces to revise our estimate of expired packages that we expect to redeem. As a result during the second quarter of 2017, we changed our accounting estimate for expected redemptions of expired packages to relieve a portion of the remaining liability post exp iration and recorded an $11 million reduction to the Advanced Deposits liability, with corresponding increases to Sales, marketing, brand and other fees revenue of $10 million and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other for the related sales tax liabi lity of $1 million. As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our net income increased by $10 million and basic and diluted earnings per share increased by $0.10.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

We account for investments in unconsolidated affiliates under the equity method of accounting when we exercise significant influence, but do not maintain a controlling financial interest over the affiliates. We evaluate our investments in affiliates for impairment when there are indicators that the fair value of our investment may be less than our carrying value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Adopted Accounting Standards

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . ASU 2016-09 includes provisions intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting and presentation of share-based payments. These provisions include the recognition of the income tax effects of awards in the consolidated statement of operations when the awards vest or are settled, permitting an employer to withhold shares in an amount up to the employee’s maximum individual tax rate without resulting in liability classification of the award, permitting entities to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur, and changes to the classification of tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments and cash payments made to taxing authorities on the employee’s behalf on the statement of cash flows. This ASU 2016-09 was effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted ASU 2016-09 retrospectively as of January 1, 2017 and have applied to all periods herein with no material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, (“ASU 2016-18”) Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU is intended to provide guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and reduce the diversity in practice. This ASU requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts on the statement of cash flows. We elected, as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2016-18 retrospectively as of January 1, 2017 and have applied it to all periods presented herein. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows was to include restricted cash balances in the beginning and end of period balances of cash and cash equivalent and restricted cash. The change in restricted cash was previously disclosed in operating activities and financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01 (“ASU 2017-01”), Business Combinations (Topic 804): Clarifying the Definition of a Business . This ASU clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. We elected, as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2017-01 prospectively as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) , and requires entities to recognize revenue

in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled i n exchange for those goods or services. Subsequent to ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several related ASUs amending the original ASU.

The provisions of this ASU are to be applied retrospectively or using a modified retrospective approach for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. A determination as to whether we will apply the retrospective or modified retrospective adoption method will be made once our quantitative evaluation is complete and we commence quantifying the expected impacts later this year.

We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements by analyzing both transactional and analytical data for each of our revenue streams. The following is a status of our evaluation of impacts by significant revenue stream:

•

Sales of VOIs, net – We expect to recognize Sales of VOI, net when control of the VOI passes to the customer, which generally occurs shortly after the expiration of the purchaser’s period to cancel for a refund. We do not expect that this timing change will have a material impact on our accounting for Sales of VOIs, net . We expect our accounting for uncollectible timeshare financing receivables to remain unchanged.

We are still evaluating the impact on revenue recognition for sales of VOIs that are under construction.

•

Sales, marketing, brand and other fees - We expect changes to the gross versus net presentation of certain sales incentives as sales incentives provided where we are acting as the agent (e.g., Hilton Honors) will be recognized on a net basis in Sales, marketing, brand and other fees . We expect this classification change to reduce Sales, marketing, brand and other fees and the related expenses by $29.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.

We plan to recognize the expected breakage on prepaid discounted vacation packages (“packages”) as revenue proportionately when our customers redeem their packages rather than when the likelihood of redemption is remote as we are entitled to the breakage amount. We are currently in the process of assessing the impact of this expected change.

We do not expect material changes to our accounting for our commissions, brand and other fees under fee-for-service arrangements.

•

Financing - We do not expect material changes to our accounting for financing revenues, as these revenues are out of the scope of Topic 606.

•

Resort and club management - We do not expect material changes to our accounting for ongoing management fees from our homeowners’ association management agreements and the fees earned from our Club members.

•

Rental and ancillary services - We do not expect significant changes to our revenue recognition of transient guest transactions, including rental and ancillary services.

•

Cost reimbursements - While we do not expect significant changes to the timing of recognition of cost reimbursements, we are still evaluating potential impacts to changes in presentation.

We expect immaterial impacts from changes to (i) timing of service fees charged on packages and (ii) classification of contract acquisition costs paid to fee-for-service customers.

We will continue to evaluate and disclose expected impacts that ASU 2014-09 will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as more information becomes available.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 (“ASU 2016-15”), Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The provisions of this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017; early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03 (“ASU 2017-03”), Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323) . ASU 2017-03 requires registrants to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. The SEC staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies that the registrant expects to apply, if

determined, and a comparison to the registrant’s current accounting policies. In addition, a registrant shou ld describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. ASU 2017-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

As of September 30, 2017, our timeshare financing receivables had interest rates ranging from 5.3 percent to 20.5 percent, a weighted average interest rate of 12.1 percent, a weighted average remaining term of 7.7 years and maturities through 2028.

We pledge a portion of our timeshare financing receivables as collateral to secure a non-recourse revolving timeshare receivable credit facility (“Timeshare Facility”) with a borrowing capacity of $450 million. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had $143 million and $509 million, respectively, of gross timeshare financing receivables securing the Timeshare Facility. We recognize interest income on our timeshare financing receivables as earned. We record an estimate of uncollectibility as a reduction of revenue from VOI sales at the time revenue is recognized on a VOI sale.

In March 2017, we completed a securitization of approximately $357 million of gross timeshare financing receivables and issued approximately $291 million of 2.66 percent notes and approximately $59 million of 2.96 percent notes, which have a stated maturity date of December 2028. The securitization transactions did not qualify as sales and, accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized. The transaction is considered a secured borrowing; therefore, the proceeds from the transaction are presented as non-recourse debt (collectively, the “Securitized Debt”). See Note 8: Debt & Non-recourse debt for further discussion.

Our timeshare financing receivables as of September 30, 2017 mature as follows:

We evaluate this portfolio collectively, since we hold a large group of homogeneous timeshare financing receivables, which are individually immaterial. We monitor the credit quality of our receivables on an ongoing basis. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty or groups of counterparties. We use a technique referred to as static pool analysis as the basis for determining our loan loss reserve requirements on our timeshare financing receivables. For static pool analysis, we use certain key dimensions to stratify our portfolio, including FICO scores, equity percentage at the time of sale and certain other factors. The adequacy of the related allowance is determined by management through analysis of several factors, such as current economic conditions and industry trends, as well as the specific risk characteristics of the portfolio including assumed default rates, aging and historical write-offs of these receivables. The allowance is maintained at a level deemed adequate by management based on a periodic analysis of the mortgage portfolio.

Our gross timeshare financing receivables balances by FICO score were as follows:

($ in millions)	2017		2016

No score ⁽¹⁾		178		181
	$	1,193	$	1,145

⁽¹⁾	Timeshare financing receivables without a FICO score are primarily related to foreign borrowers.

We apply payments we receive for loans, including those in non-accrual status, to amounts due in the following order: servicing fees; interest; principal; and late charges. Once a loan is 91 days past due, we cease accruing interest and reverse the accrued interest recognized up to that point. We resume interest accrual for loans for which we had previously ceased accruing interest once the loan is less than 91 days past due. We fully reserve for a timeshare financing receivable in the month following the date that the loan is 121 days past due and, subsequently, we write off the uncollectible note against the reserve once the foreclosure process is complete and we receive the deed for the foreclosed unit.

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had ceased accruing interest on timeshare financing receivables with an aggregate principal balance of $47 million and $38 million, respectively. The following tables detail an aged analysis of our gross timeshare financing receivables balance:

Note 6: Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we consolidated three and two variable interest entities (“VIEs”), respectively, that issued Securitized Debt, backed by pledged assets consisting primarily of a pool of timeshare financing receivables, which is without recourse to us. We are the primary beneficiaries of these VIEs as we have the power to direct the activities that most

significan tly affect their economic performance. We are also the servicer of these timeshare financing receivables and we are required to replace or repurchase timeshare financing receivables that are in default at their outstanding principal amounts. Additionally, we have the obligation to absorb their losses and the right to receive benefits that could be significant to them. Only assets of our VIEs are available to settle the obligations of the respective entities.

Our condensed consolidated balance sheets included the assets and liabilities of these entities, which primarily consisted of the following:

	September 30,		December 31,
($ in millions)	2017		2016
Restricted cash	$	19	$	10
Timeshare financing receivables, net		477		244
Non-recourse debt ⁽¹⁾		484		244

⁽¹⁾	Net of deferred financing costs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we did not provide any financial or other support to any VIEs that we were not previously contractually required to provide, nor do we intend to provide such support in the future.

Note 7: Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

On July 18, 2017, we entered into an agreement with BRE Ace Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BRE Ace Holdings”), an affiliate of The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) and formed BRE Ace LLC. Pursuant to the agreement, we contributed $40 million in cash for a 25 percent interest in BRE Ace LLC, which owns a 1,201-key timeshare resort property and related operations, commonly known as “Elara, by Hilton Grand Vacations,” located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Our investment interest in and equity earned from BRE Ace LLC are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as Investment in unconsolidated affiliate and in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as Equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliate , respectively.

BRE Ace LLC had debt of $207 million and non-recourse debt of $235 million as of September 30, 2017. The debt and non-recourse debt are secured by its assets and are without recourse to us. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investment interest in BRE Ace LLC is primarily limited to the carrying amount of the investment which totals $41 million as of September 30, 2017, as well as receivables for commission and other fees earned under a fee-for-service arrangement. See Note 13: Related Party Transactions for additional information.

Note 8: Debt & Non-recourse debt

⁽¹⁾	For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and year ended December 31, 2016, weighted average interest rates were 2.453 percent and 1.946 percent, respectively.

⁽²⁾	Amount relates to Securitized Debt only and does not include deferred financing costs of $2 million as of September 30, 2017 and $3 million as of December 31, 2016, relating to our Timeshare Facility included in Other Assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Timeshare Facility is a non-recourse obligation and is payable solely from the pool of timeshare financing receivables pledged as collateral and related assets.

In March 2017, we completed a securitization of approximately $357 million of gross timeshare financing receivables and issued approximately $291 million of 2.66 percent notes and $59 million of 2.96 percent notes due December 2028. The Securitized Debt is backed by pledged assets, consisting primarily of a pool of timeshare financing receivables secured by first mortgages or deeds of trust on timeshare interests. The Securitized Debt is a non-recourse obligation and is payable solely from the pool of timeshare financing receivables pledged as collateral to the debt.

We are required to deposit payments received from customers on the timeshare financing receivables securing the Timeshare Facility and Securitized Debt into depository accounts maintained by third parties. On a monthly basis, the depository accounts are utilized to make required principal, interest and other payments due under the respective loan agreements. The balances in the depository accounts were $22 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and were included in Restricted cash in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Debt Maturities

The contractual maturities of our debt and non-recourse debt as of September 30, 2017 were as follows:

Note 9: Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial assets and liabilities were as follows:

	September 30, 2017
			Hierarchy Level
($ in millions)	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 3
Assets:
Timeshare financing receivables ⁽¹⁾	$	1,055	$	—	$	1,394
Liabilities:

Non-recourse debt ⁽²⁾		694		—		696

⁽¹⁾	Carrying amount net of allowance for loan loss.

⁽²⁾	Carrying amount net of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount.

Our estimates of the fair values were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the estimated fair values. The table above excludes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, advance deposits and accrued liabilities, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

The estimated fair values of our timeshare financing receivables were determined using a discounted cash flow model. Our model incorporates default rates, coupon rates, credit quality and loan terms respective to the portfolio based on current market assumptions for similar types of arrangements.

The estimated fair values of our Level 1 debt was based on prices in active debt markets. The estimated fair value of our Level 3 debt and non-recourse debt were as follows:

•

Debt - based on indicative quotes obtained for similar issuances and projected future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted rates.

•

Non-recourse debt - based on projected future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted rates.

Note 10: Income Taxes

At the end of each quarter, we estimate the effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. The effective income tax rate is determined by the level and composition of pre-tax income or loss, which is subject to federal, foreign, state and local income taxes. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was approximately 38 percent and 43 percent, respectively, which decreased primarily due to a decrease in cumulative installment sale interest liability.

The Company was a party to several intercompany asset transfers with Hilton prior to the spin-off. As required under U.S. tax regulations, the gain resulting from the intercompany transfer of these assets should be deferred and no deferred tax asset or liability should be recognized until a recognition event occurs. On January 3, 2017, Hilton executed a tax-free spin-off of the Company, which met the requirement of a recognition event. On the spin-off date, for the assets transferred, we recognized a stepped up tax basis, re-measured the asset by applying applicable tax rate changes and evaluated the realizability of the asset. This resulted in a reduction to our net deferred tax liability and an increase in our Additional paid-in capital of $9 million on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017.

Note 11: Share-Based Compensation

Stock Plan

We issue time-vesting restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and nonqualified stock options (“options”) to certain employees. All performance shares that were issued under the stock plan of Hilton, were converted to RSUs as of December 31, 2016. We recognized share-based compensation expense of $5 million and $2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively and $13 million and $7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of September 30, 2017, unrecognized compensation costs for unvested awards were approximately $13 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years. As of September 30, 2017, there were 7,961,151 shares of common stock available for future issuance.

RSUs

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we issued 530,674 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $29.15, which generally vest 25 percent in the first year, 25 percent in the second year and 50 percent in the third year from the date of grant.

Options

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we issued 669,658 options with a grant date fair value of $8.66 and an exercise price of $28.30, which generally vest 25 percent in the first year, 25 percent in the second year and 50 percent in the third year from the date of grant.

The grant date fair value of each of these option grants was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

Expected volatility ⁽¹⁾	26.3	%
Dividend yield ⁽²⁾	—	%
Risk-free rate ⁽³⁾	2.3	%
Expected term (in years) ⁽⁴⁾	6.0

⁽¹⁾

Due to limited trading history for Hilton Grand Vacations’ common stock, we did not have sufficient information available on which to base a reasonable and supportable estimate of the expected volatility of our share price. As a result, we used a weighted-average of the implied volatility and the average historical volatility of our peer group over a time period consistent with its expected term assumption. Our peer group was determined based upon companies in our industry with similar business models and is consistent with those used to benchmark its executive compensation.

⁽²⁾	At the date of grant we had no plans to pay dividends during the expected term of these options.

⁽³⁾	Based on the yields of U.S. Department of Treasury instruments with similar expected lives.

⁽⁴⁾	Estimated using the average of the vesting periods and the contractual term of the options.

As of September 30, 2017, we had 169,926 options outstanding that were exercisable.

Note 12: Earnings Per Share

The following table presents the calculation of our basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). The weighted average shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 reflect 98,802,597 shares distributed on January 3, 2017, our spin-off date, to our stockholders. See Note 1: Organization and Basis of Presentation for further discussion. The weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic EPS and diluted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2017 is 98,981,557 and 99,730,483, respectively and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is 98,916,894 and 99,530,534, respectively.

The dilutive effect of outstanding share-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.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we excluded 224,783 share-based compensation awards because their effect would have been anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we did not exclude any share-based compensation awards.

Note 13: Related Party Transactions

Relationship Between HGV and Hilton after the Spin-Off

On January 3, 2017, when the spin-off was completed, Hilton and Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. ceased to be related parties of HGV. In connection with the spin-off, we entered into certain agreements with Hilton (who at the time was a related party) and other third parties. See Key Agreements Related to the Spin-Off section in Part I - Item 1. Business of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further information.

HNA Tourism Group Co., Ltd.

On March 15, 2017, Blackstone completed the previously announced sale of 24,750,000 shares of our common stock to HNA Tourism Group Co., Ltd. (“HNA”), representing approximately 25 percent of the outstanding shares of our common stock.

In connection with the consummation of the sale, we adopted our amended and restated by-laws, effective March 15, 2017, to remove references to Blackstone’s ownership of at least 40 percent of the total voting power of our common stock and revised certain provisions referencing the Blackstone Stockholders Agreement, as appropriate, to include references to the HNA Stockholder Agreement.

The Blackstone Group

As of March 31, 2017, Blackstone held 15,008,689 shares, or approximately 15 percent of our outstanding common stock. On May 25, 2017, Blackstone filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and registered all of our common stock held by them. On June 14, 2017, Blackstone entered into an underwriting agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC pursuant to which J.P. Morgan

Securities LLC agreed to purchase from Blackstone 9,650,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $35.40 per share. The sale was completed on June 20, 2017. Subsequently, on September 25, 2017, Blackstone complete d the sale of substantially all of the remaining shares of our common stock held by them to several institutional investors and ceased to be a related party of HGV. We did not receive any proceeds from either of these sales. As of September 30, 2017, Black stone holds only a nominal number of shares of our common stock.

BRE Ace LLC

On July 18, 2017, we entered into an agreement with BRE Ace Holdings, an affiliate of Blackstone, to form BRE Ace LLC. In conjunction with this agreement we acquired a 25 percent ownership interest in BRE Ace LLC. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recorded $1 million in equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates , included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 7: Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate for additional information. In addition, we earn commissions and other fees related to a fee-for-service agreement to sell VOIs at Elara, by Hilton Grand Vacations.

Note 14: Business Segments

We operate our business through the following two segments:

•

Real estate sales and financing – We market and sell VOIs that we own. We also source VOIs through fee-for-service agreements with third-party developers. Related to the sales of the VOIs that we own, we provide consumer financing, which includes interest income generated from the origination of consumer loans to customers to finance their purchase of VOIs and revenue from servicing the loans. We also generate fee revenue from servicing the loans provided by third-party developers to purchasers of their VOIs.

•

Resort operations and club management – We manage the Club, earn activation fees, annual dues and transaction fees from member exchanges for other vacation products. We earn fees for managing the timeshare properties. We generate rental revenue from unit rentals of unsold inventory and inventory made available due to ownership exchanges under our Club program. We also earn revenue from food and beverage, retail and spa outlets at our timeshare properties.

The performance of our operating segments is evaluated primarily based on adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA which has been further adjusted to exclude certain items, including, but not limited to, gains, losses and expenses in connection with: (i) asset dispositions; (ii) foreign currency transactions; (iii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iv) non-cash impairment losses; (v) reorganization costs, including severance and relocation costs; (vi) share-based and other compensation expenses; (vii) costs related to the spin-off; and (viii) other items. During the first quarter of 2017, we revised our definition of EBITDA to exclude the adjustment of interest expense relating to our non-recourse debt as a reconciling item to arrive at net income (loss) in order to conform to the presentation of the timeshare industry following the consummation of the spin-off from Hilton. This adjustment was retrospectively applied to prior period(s) to conform with the current presentation.

We do not include equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliate in our measures of segment revenues. The following table presents revenues for our reportable segments reconciled to consolidated amounts:

Note 15: Commitments and Contingencies

We have entered into certain arrangements with developers whereby we have committed to purchase vacation ownership units at a future date to be marketed and sold under our Hilton Grand Vacations brand. As of September 30, 2017, we were committed to purchase approximately $208 million of inventory and land over a period of five years. The ultimate amount and timing of the acquisitions is subject to change pursuant to the terms of the respective arrangements, which could also allow for cancellation in certain circumstances. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we purchased $9 million and $11 million, respectively, of VOI inventory as required under our commitments. As of September 30, 2017, our remaining obligation pursuant to these arrangements was expected to be incurred as follows: $3 million in 2018, $187 million in 2019, $9 million in 2020, and $9 million in 2021.

We are involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business, some of which includes claims for substantial sums. Management has also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and/or for which no estimate of possible losses can be made. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we expect that the ultimate resolution of all pending or threatened claims and litigation as of September 30, 2017, will not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 16: Subsequent Events

On October 13, 2017, we acquired an 83-unit, ski-in mountain lodge in Park City, Utah, known as “The Sunrise Lodge, a Hilton Grand Vacations Club.” Prior to the acquisition, HGV was providing marketing, sales and resort management services to the seller Sunrise Park City, LLC under a fee-for-service agreement.

Overview

Spin-Off Transactions

On January 3, 2017, the previously announced spin-off was completed by way of a pro rata distribution of the Company’s common stock to Hilton stockholders. Each Hilton stockholder received one share of our common stock for every ten shares of Hilton common stock. As a result of the spin-off, we became a separate publicly-traded company on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “HGV” and Hilton did not retain any ownership interest in us.

Part I – Item 1. Business of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further information.

On March 15, 2017, Blackstone completed the previously announced sale of 24,750,000 shares of our common stock to HNA, representing approximately 25 percent of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Blackstone retained 15,008,689 shares, or approximately 15 percent of our common stock upon the completion of the sale.

On May 25, 2017, Blackstone filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and registered all of our common stock held by them. On June 14, 2017, Blackstone entered into an underwriting agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC pursuant to which J.P. Morgan Securities LLC agreed to purchase from Blackstone 9,650,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $35.40 per share. The sale was completed on June 20, 2017. Subsequently, on September 25, 2017, Blackstone completed the sale of substantially all of the remaining shares of our common stock held by them to several institutional investors. We did not received any proceeds from either of these sales. As of September 30, 2017, Blackstone holds only a nominal number of shares of our common stock.

Tax Matters Agreement

Subsequent to the spin-off, we have no unrecognized taxes that, if recognized, would have impacted our effective tax rate. As a large taxpayer, Hilton is continuously under audit by the IRS and other taxing authorities. HGV has joined in the Hilton U.S. Federal tax consolidated filing for prior tax years up to the date of the spin-off. Although we do not anticipate that a significant impact to our unrecognized tax balance will occur during the next fiscal year as a result of these audits, it remains possible that the amount of our liability for unrecognized taxes could change over that time period. Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement, Hilton is liable and shall pay the relevant tax authority for all taxes related to the taxable income prior to the spin-off. HGV will be responsible for its portion of any amounts Hilton is deemed liable by a taxing authority according to the Tax Matters Agreement. HGV is responsible for tax years subsequent to the spin-off.

Our Business

We are a rapidly growing timeshare company that markets and sells VOIs, manages resorts in top leisure and urban destinations, and operates a points-based vacation club. As of September 30, 2017, we have 48 resorts, representing 8,101 units, which are located in iconic vacation destinations such as the Hawaiian Islands, New York City, Orlando and Las Vegas, and feature spacious, condominium-style accommodations with superior amenities and quality service. As of September 30, 2017, we have approximately 284,000 Hilton Grand Vacations Club (the “Club”) members. Club members have the flexibility to exchange their VOIs for stays at any Hilton Grand Vacations resort or any property in the Hilton system of 14 industry-leading brands across more than 5,000 properties, as well as numerous experiential vacation options, such as cruises and guided tours.

We operate our business across two segments: (1) real estate sales and financing; and (2) resort operations and club management.

Real Estate Sales and Financing

Our primary product is the marketing and selling of fee-simple VOIs deeded in perpetuity, developed either by us or by third parties. This ownership interest is an interest in real estate generally equivalent to one week annually at the timeshare resort where the VOI was purchased. Traditionally, timeshare operators have funded 100 percent of the investment necessary to acquire land and construct timeshare properties. In 2010, we began sourcing VOIs through fee-for-service and just-in-time agreements with third-party developers and have successfully transformed from a capital-intensive business to one that is highly capital-efficient. The fee-for-service agreements enable us to generate fees from the sales and marketing of the VOIs and Club memberships and from the management of the timeshare properties without requiring us to fund acquisition and construction costs. The just-in-time agreements enable us to source VOI inventory in a manner that allows us to correlate the timing of acquisition of the inventory by us with the sale to purchasers. Sales of owned inventory, including purchased just-in-time inventory, generally result in greater Adjusted EBITDA contributions, while fee-for-service sales require less initial investment and allow us to accelerate our sales growth. Both sales of owned inventory and fee-for-service sales generate long-term, predictable fee streams, by adding to the Club membership base and properties under management, that generate strong returns on invested capital.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, sales from fee-for-service, just-in-time and developed inventory sources were 54 percent, 20 percent and 26 percent, respectively, of contract sales. See “-Real Estate Sales Metrics” for additional discussion of contract sales. Based on our trailing twelve months sales pace, we have access to approximately five years of future inventory, with capital efficient arrangements representing approximately 88 percent of that supply. We believe that the visibility into our long-term supply allows us to efficiently manage inventory to meet predicted sales, reduce capital investments, minimize our exposure to the cyclicality of the real estate market and mitigate the risks of entering into new markets.

We originate loans for members purchasing our developed and acquired inventory which generate interest income. Our loans are collateralized by the underlying VOIs and are generally structured as 10-year, fully-amortizing loans that bear a fixed interest rate typically ranging from 9 percent to 18 percent per annum.

The interest rate on our loans is determined by, among other factors, the amount of the down payment, the borrower’s credit profile and the loan term. The weighted average FICO score for new loans to U.S. and Canadian borrowers at the time of origination were as follows:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016
Weighted average FICO score		738		736

Prepayment is permitted without penalty. When a member defaults, we ultimately return their VOI to inventory for resale and that member no longer participates in our Club.

Some of our loans have been pledged as collateral in our securitization transactions, which have in the past and may in the future provide funding for our business activities. In these securitization transactions, special purpose entities are established to issue various classes of debt securities which are generally collatera lized by a single pool of assets, consisting of timeshare financing receivables that we service and cash deposits. For additional information see Note 4: Timeshare Financing Receivables in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In addition, we earn fees from servicing our securitized loan portfolio and the loans provided by third-party developers of our fee-for-service projects to purchasers of their VOIs.

Resort Operations and Club Management

We enter into a management agreement with the homeowners’ association (“HOA”) of the VOI owners for timeshare resorts developed by us or a third party. Each of the HOAs is governed by a board of directors comprising owner and developer representatives that are charged with ensuring the resorts are well-maintained and financially stable. Our management services include day-to-day operations of the resorts, maintenance of the resorts, preparation of reports, budgets and projections and employee training and oversight. Our HOA management agreements provide for a cost-plus management fee, which means we generally earn a fee equal to 10 percent to 15 percent of the costs to operate the applicable resort. The fees we earn are highly predictable due to the relatively fixed nature of resort operating expenses and our management fees are unaffected by changes in rental rate or occupancy. We are reimbursed for the costs incurred to perform our services, principally related to personnel providing on-site services. The initial term of our management agreements typically ranges from three to five years and the agreements are subject to periodic renewal for one to three year periods. Many of these agreements renew automatically unless either party provides advance notice of termination before the expiration of the term.

We also manage and operate the points-based Hilton Grand Vacations Club and Hilton Club exchange programs, which provide exclusive exchange, leisure travel and reservation services to our Club members. When an owner purchases a VOI, he or she is generally automatically enrolled in the Club and given an annual allotment of points that allow the member to exchange his or her annual usage rights in the VOI that they own for a number of vacation and travel options. In addition to an annual membership fee, Club members pay incremental fees depending on exchanges they choose within the Club system.

We rent unsold VOI inventory, third-party inventory and inventory made available due to ownership exchanges through our Club programs. We earn a fee from rentals of third-party inventory. Additionally, we provide ancillary offerings including food and beverage, retail and spa offerings at these timeshare properties.

Key Business and Financial Metrics and Terms Used by Management

Real Estate Sales Metrics

The following are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP:

•

Contract sales represents the total amount of VOI products under purchase agreements signed during the period where we have received a down payment of at least 10 percent of the contract price. Contract sales is not a recognized term under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to Sales of VOIs, net or any other comparable operating measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Contract sales differ from revenues from the Sales of VOIs, net that we report in our condensed consolidated statements of operations due to the requirements for revenue recognition, as well as adjustments for incentives and other administrative fee revenues. We consider contract sales to be an important operating measure because it reflects the pace of sales in our business.

•

Sales revenue represents sale of VOIs, net and commissions and brand fees earned from the sale of fee-for-service intervals.

•

Real estate margin represents sales revenue less the cost of VOI sales and sales and marketing costs, net of marketing revenue. Real estate margin percentage is calculated by dividing real estate margin by sales revenue. We consider this to be an important operating measure because it measures the efficiency of our sales and marketing spending and management of inventory costs.

•

Tour flow represents the number of sales presentations given at our sales centers during the period.

•

Volume per guest (“VPG”) represents the sales attributable to tours at our sales locations and is calculated by dividing Contract sales, excluding telesales, by tour flow. We consider VPG to be an important operating measure because it measures the effectiveness of our sales process, combining the average transaction price with closing rate.

•

Capital efficiency ratio represents the ratio of cost of VOI sales to VOI inventory spend, including fee-for-service upgrades. We consider this to be an important operating measure because capital efficiency allows us to reduce inventory investm ent requirements while continuing to generate growth in revenues and cash flows.

Resort and Club Management and Rental Metrics

•

Transient rate represents the total rental room revenue for transient guests divided by total number of transient room nights sold in a given period and excludes room rentals associated with marketing programs, owner usage and the redemption of Club Bonus Points.

For further information see Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, presented herein, is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP that reflects net income (loss), before interest expense, a provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. During the first quarter of 2017, we revised our definition of EBITDA to exclude the adjustment of interest expense relating to our non-recourse debt as a reconciling item to arrive at net income (loss) in order to conform to the presentation of the timeshare industry following the consummation of the spin-off from Hilton. The revised definition was applied to prior period(s) to conform with current presentation. Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, as previously defined, further adjusted to exclude certain items, including, but not limited to, gains, losses and expenses in connection with: (i) asset dispositions; (ii) foreign currency transactions; (iii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iv) non-cash impairment losses; (v) reorganization costs, including severance and relocation costs; (vi) share-based and certain other compensation expenses; (vii) costs related to the spin-off; and (viii) other items.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions; and (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), cash flow or other methods of analyzing our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our interest expense (excluding interest expense on non-recourse debt), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for future replacements of assets that are being depreciated and amortized; and

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be calculated differently from other companies in our industry limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

Recent Events

On July 18, 2017, we entered into an agreement with BRE Ace Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BRE Ace Holdings”), an affiliate of Blackstone and formed BRE Ace LLC. Pursuant to the agreement, we contributed $40 million in cash for a 25 percent interest in BRE Ace LLC, which owns a 1,201-key timeshare resort property and related operations, commonly known as “Elara, by Hilton Grand Vacations,” located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

On September 10, 2017, Hurricane Irma hit the Florida Keys as a Category 4 hurricane, weakening somewhat as it made landfall along Florida’s southwest shoreline. Although certain of our managed Florida properties were temporarily closed during the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, neither HGV’s operations nor financial performance were significantly impacted by this storm. In the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, the IRS has granted an automatic extension to individuals and businesses affected by the hurricanes, which extends tax filing and payment deadlines beginning September 4, 2017. As a result, we have delayed our third quarter Federal income tax payment.

Real Estate Sales and Financing

Real estate sales and financing segment revenues increase for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a $4 million increase in sales revenue, a $2 million increase in marketing revenue and a $4 million increased in financing revenues. The increase in sales revenue was primarily due to higher sales of VOIs, net, due to sales at our newly developed project beginning in the fourth quarter of 2016. The increase in marketing revenues was primarily due to an increase in title related services. The increase in financing revenues was primarily due an increase in interest income from higher outstanding timeshare financing receivables balance. Real estate sales and financing segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a $14 million increase in sales and marketing expense as well as a decrease in commission and brand fees.

Real estate sales and financing segment revenues increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a $44 million increase in sales revenue, a $22 million increase in marketing revenue and a $9 million increased in financing revenues. The increase in sales revenue was primarily due to a $47 million increase in sales of VOIs, net, due to sales at our newly developed project beginning in the fourth quarter of 2016. The increase in marketing revenue was primarily due to (i) a $10 million reduction of our expected redemptions of expired discounted vacation packages, (ii) a $8 million

increase in the actual redemption of discounted vacation packages and (iii) a $3 million increase in title related service revenue. The increase in financing revenues was prim arily due an increase in interest income from higher outstanding timeshare financing receivables balance. Real estate sales and financing segment Adjusted EBITDA increased by $13 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same p eriod in 2016, primarily due to an increase in revenues associated with the segment, partially offset by a $49 million increase in sales and marketing expense as well as a decrease in commission and brand fees.

Resort and club management revenues increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to (i) an increase in resort management revenue from the launch of new properties subsequent to the third quarter of 2016 and (ii) an increase of approximately 19,000 in Club members resulting in higher annual dues and transaction fees. These increases were partially offset by higher resort and club management expenses due to an increase in costs for servicing additional Club members and properties. In addition, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the increases were partially offset by a one-time fee earned in 2016 on a prepaid contract.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Prior to the fourth quarter of 2016, any net cash generated by our business has been transferred to Hilton, where it has been centrally managed. Transfers of cash to and from Hilton have been reflected as a component of Net transfers (to) from Parent in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

As of September 30, 2017, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $284 million, including $58 million of restricted cash. The restricted cash balance relates to escrowed cash from our sales of our VOIs and consumer financing receivables pledged to our non-recourse revolving timeshare receivable credit facility or securitizations.

Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures, including payroll and related benefits, legal costs, operating costs associated with the operation of our resorts and sales centers, interest and scheduled principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness and capital expenditures for renovations and maintenance at our offices and sales centers. Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities, purchase commitments and costs associated with potential acquisitions and development projects.

We finance our business activities primarily with existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from our operations and through securitizations of our timeshare financing receivables. We believe that this cash will be adequate to meet anticipated requirements for operating expenses and other expenditures, including payroll and related benefits, legal costs and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. The objectives of our cash management policy are to maintain the availability of liquidity, minimize operational costs, make debt payments and fund future acquisitions and development projects. Further, we have an investment policy that is focused on the preservation of capital and maximizing the return on new and existing investments.

Sources and Uses of Our Cash

The following table summarizes our net cash flows and key metrics related to our liquidity:

⁽²⁾	Reflects the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, (“ASU 2016-18”) Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Operating Activities

Cash flow provided by operating activities is primarily generated from (1) sales and financing of VOIs and (2) net cash generated from managing our resorts, Club operations and providing related ancillary services. Cash flows used in operating activities primarily include spending for the acquisition of inventory, development of new phases of existing resorts and funding our working capital needs. Our cash flows from operations generally vary due to the following factors related to the sale of our VOIs: the degree to which our owners finance their purchase and our owners’ repayment of timeshare financing receivables; the timing of management and sales and marketing services provided; and cash outlays for VOI inventory acquisition and development. Additionally, cash flow from operations will also vary depending upon our sales mix of VOIs; over time, we generally receive more cash from the sale of an owned VOI as compared to that from a fee-for-service sale.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased by $166 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, primarily as a result of improved operating results in the real estate sales and financing segment and increased sources of cash for working capital requirements. In addition, as permitted by the federal government pursuant to a tax relief program for regions impacted by Hurricane Irma, we deferred our estimated federal tax payment until the first quarter of 2018.

Capital efficiency allows us to reduce inventory investment requirements and to generate growth in revenues and cash flows. Over a short-term period, depending on the timing of inventory spend, our capital efficiency may vary; however, over the long-term, we generally target a 50/50 mix of owned and fee-for-service inventory, which we expect will allow us to expand partner relationships and to provide a strong inventory supply without the upfront capital investment. In addition, we continue to move towards more just-in-time owned inventory sourcing arrangements that we expect to also drive capital efficiency. The change for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, is primarily due to reduced inventory spending while maintaining a consistent sales pace and fewer fee-for-service upgrades. However, over the long-term, we consider a ratio of VOI inventory spend to cost of VOI sales of 1:1 to be indicative of capital efficiency.

The following is a summary of our Capital Efficiency Ratio:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
($ in millions)	2017		2016
VOI spending - owned properties	$	31	$	62
VOI spending - fee-for-service upgrades		41		65
Total VOI inventory spending ⁽¹⁾	$	72	$	127
Cost of VOI sales ⁽¹⁾	$	107	$	110
Capital Efficiency Ratio		1.5		0.9

⁽¹⁾	Includes costs of VOI sales related to the cost of reacquiring inventory that we have developed from existing owners upgrading into fee-for-service projects. Excludes non-cash asset transfers from Hilton and non-cash inventory accruals.

Our capital expenditures include spending related to technology and buildings and leasehold improvements used to support sales and marketing locations, resort operations and corporate activities. We believe the renovations of our existing assets are necessary to stay competitive in the markets in which we operate.

⁽²⁾	All transactions between HGV and Hilton have been settled in connection with the spin-off.

The change in net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, was primarily due to our financing transactions that occurred in the first quarter of 2017. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we issued $350 million in non-recourse securitized debt and paid $5 million in debt issuance costs. The proceeds received from the non-recourse securitized debt were used to pay down a portion of our timeshare facility. We also paid $7 million of the principal amount of the senior secured term loan. See Note 8: Debt & Non -recourse debt in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion. Additionally, following the spin-off date we no longer receive transfers from Hilton.

As of September 30, 2017, our contractual obligations relating to our operating leases have not materially changed from what was reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2017 consisted of $208 million of certain commitments with developers whereby we have committed to purchase vacation ownership units at a future date to be marketed and sold under the Hilton Grand Vacations brand. The ultimate amount and timing of the acquisitions is subject to change pursuant to the terms of the respective arrangements, which could also allow for cancellation in certain circumstances. See Note 15: Commitments and Contingencies in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our off-balance sheet arrangements.

Subsequent Events

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We have discussed those policies and estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Since the date of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or the methods or assumptions we apply under them.

We manage our exposure to these risks by monitoring available financing alternatives and through pricing policies that may take into account currency exchange rates. Our exposure to market risk has not materially changed from what we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable-rate debt, comprised of the term loans and our timeshare facility, of which the timeshare facility is without recourse to us. The interest rate is based on one-month LIBOR and we are most vulnerable to changes in this rate.

We intend to securitize timeshare financing receivables in the asset-backed financing market periodically. We expect to secure fixed rate funding to match our fixed rate timeshare financing receivables. However, if we have floating rate debt in the future, we will monitor the interest rate risk and evaluate opportunities to mitigate such risk through the use of derivative instruments.

To the extent we utilize variable rate indebtedness in the future, any increase in interest rates beyond amounts covered under any corresponding derivative financial instruments, particularly if sustained, could have an adverse effect on our net income, cash flows and financial position. Hedging transactions we enter into may not adequately mitigate the adverse effects of interest rate increases or that counterparties in those transactions will honor their obligations.

The fol lowing table sets forth the contractual maturities, weighted average interest rates and the total fair values as of September 30, 2017, for our financial instruments that are materially affected by interest rate risk:

				Maturities by Period

⁽⁴⁾	Variable-rate debt includes principal outstanding debt of $193 million and non-recourse debt of $129 million as of September 30, 2017. See Note 8: Debt & Non-recourse debt in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Though the majority of our operations are conducted in United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”), we are exposed to earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our principal exposure results from our timeshare financing receivables denominated in Japanese yen, the value of which could change materially in reference to our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. A 10 percent increase in the foreign exchange rate of Japanese yen to U.S. dollar would increase our gross timeshare financing receivables by less than $1 million.

ITEM 4.

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), and management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance about management’s control objectives. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. However, you should note that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and we cannot assure you that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Based upon the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that we record, process, summarize and report the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to provide reasonable assurance that we accumulate and communicate such information to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions about required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business, some of which includes claims for substantial sums. Management has also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and/or for which no estimate of possible losses can be made. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we expect that the ultimate resolution of all pending or threatened claims and litigation as of September 30, 2017 will not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

Set forth below are the material changes to the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of Part 1 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed below and in Item 1A of Part 1 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price. The risks described below and in the Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing HGV. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management or that management presently believes not to be material may also result in material and adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price.

Partnership or joint venture investments could be adversely affected by our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on partners’ or co-venturers’ financial condition, disputes between us and our partners or co-venturers and our obligation to guaranty certain obligations beyond the amount of our investments.

We may co-invest in the future with other third parties through partnerships, joint ventures or other entities, acquiring non-controlling interests in, or sharing responsibility for managing the affairs, of a timeshare property, partnership, joint venture or other entity. For example, we recently entered into the Joint Venture Agreement with BRE Ace Holdings, an affiliate of Blackstone, pursuant to which we acquired a non-managing 25 percent interest in BRE Ace LLC, which owns a 1,201-key timeshare resort property and related operations, commonly known as “Elara, by Hilton Grand Vacations,” located in Las Vegas, Nevada (the “Elara Joint Venture.”) Consequently, with respect to any such third-party arrangements, we would not be in a position to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the property, partnership, joint venture or other entity, and may, under certain circumstances, be exposed to risks not present if a third party were not involved, including the possibility that partners or co-venturers might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, and we may be forced to make contributions to maintain the value of the property. Such investments may also have the potential risk of impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor the partner or co-venturer may have full control over the partnership or joint venture. We and our respective partners or co-venturers may each have the right to trigger a buy-sell right or forced sale arrangement, which could cause us to sell our interest, or acquire our partners’ or co-venturers’ interest, or to sell the underlying asset, either on unfavorable terms or at a time when we otherwise would not have initiated such a transaction. In addition, a sale or transfer by us to a third party of our interests in the partnership or joint venture may be subject to consent rights or rights of first refusal in favor of our partners or co-venturers, which would in each case restrict our ability to dispose of our interest in the partnership or joint venture. For example, our joint venture partner in the Elara Joint Venture generally has exclusive authority to manage the business and affairs of the Elara Joint Venture, and has the discretion to call for additional capital contributions at any time. In addition, it has certain rights to transfer or sell some or all of its interests in the Elara Joint Venture and/or the Property without our consent or, in certain situations, require us to sell our interests at the same time, while we are not permitted to sell or transfer our interest without their consent. Any or all of these factors could adversely affect the value of our investment, our ability to exit, sell or dispose of our investment at times that are beneficial to us, or our financial commitment to maintaining our interest in the joint ventures.

Our joint ventures may be subject to debt and the refinancing of such debt, and we may be required to provide certain guarantees or be responsible for the full amount of the debt in certain circumstances in the event of a default beyond the amount of our equity investment. Our joint venture partners may take actions that are inconsistent with the interests of the partnership or joint venture, or in violation of the financing arrangements and trigger our guaranty, which may expose us to substantial financial obligation and commitment that are beyond our ability to fund. In addition, partners or co-venturers may have economic or other business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals and may be in a position to take action or withhold consent contrary to our policies or objectives. In some instances, partners or co-venturers may have competing interests in our markets that could create conflict of interest issues. Disputes between us and partners or co-venturers may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent our officers from focusing their time and effort on our business. Consequently, actions by or disputes with partners or co-venturers might result in subjecting assets owned by the partnership or joint venture to additional risk. In addition, we may, in certain circumstances, be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers.

A significant percentage of our revenue is derived from our fee-for-service agreements with respect to two properties that are owned by a third party, and any termination of such arrangements could have a mate rially adverse impact on our revenues and financial results.

We derived approximately 20 percent and 14 percent of our revenues for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, from fee-for-service fees with respect two of our properties that are owned single third party and for which we have entered into fee-for-service agreements. If these fee-for-service agreements are terminated by the property owner, if one or both properties are sold to another party without the continuation of such arrangement, or if there is any occurrence or existence of any adverse economic development, adverse acts of natural or manmade disasters, or any other conditions (as more fully described in our Risk Factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as updated from time to time) that negatively or disproportionately adversely affects either or both of these two properties, our revenues, our operating results and our financial performance could be materially adversely impacted.
