BETHESDA, MD – October 5, 2011—Marriott International, Inc. (NYSE: MAR) today reported third quarter 2011 results.

THIRD QUARTER 2011 RESULTS

Third quarter 2011 adjusted net income totaled $104 million, a 25 percent increase compared to third quarter 2010 net income. Adjusted diluted EPS totaled $0.29, a 32 percent increase from diluted EPS in the year-ago quarter. On July 13, 2011, the company forecasted third quarter diluted EPS of $0.25 to $0.29.

The reported net loss was $179 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to net income of $83 million in the year-ago quarter. Reported diluted losses per share was $0.52 in the third quarter of 2011 compared to diluted EPS of $0.22 in the third quarter of 2010.

Adjusted results for the 2011 third quarter exclude $352 million pretax ($251 million after-tax and $0.73 per diluted share) of non-cash other charges. Other charges include $324 million pretax of impairment charges, which Marriott previously disclosed, related to the timeshare segment. Other charges also include an $18 million pretax impairment charge on an investment in equity securities due to a recent decline in the market price of these securities and a $10 million pretax write-off of both deferred contract acquisition costs and an accounts receivable balance related to one property whose owner filed for bankruptcy. Adjusted results also exclude $32 million ($0.09 per diluted share) of tax expense recorded in the 2011 third quarter in conjunction with the write-off of international deferred tax assets related to the timeshare segment that Marriott determined were impaired, which the company also previously disclosed.

J.W. Marriott, Jr., Marriott International chairman and chief executive officer, said, “We were very pleased with our performance in the third quarter. Despite continued economic uncertainty, revenue per available room growth was very strong and adjusted EPS rose 32 percent.

“After reaching targeted debt levels in mid 2010, we have been investing in growth while also returning substantial cash to our shareholders. In the last 12 months, we have opened 33,000 new rooms while returning $1.4 billion to our shareholders through share repurchases and dividends. Third quarter share repurchases alone totaled $550 million.

“The spin-off of our timeshare business is on track and we expect to conclude the transaction in the 2011 fourth quarter. When complete, Marriott will have taken another innovative step, leading the industry as a manager and franchisor of the greatest lodging and timeshare brand portfolio in the business.

“We are cautiously optimistic about 2012 and are well-positioned for continued growth. We expect to add approximately 30,000 rooms in 2012, most of which are already under construction and included in our 105,000 room development pipeline. While there is considerable economic uncertainty, assuming worldwide systemwide REVPAR growth of 3 to 7 percent, our earnings

per share could total $1.48 to $1.68 per share and return on invested capital could increase substantially.”

For the 2011 third quarter, REVPAR for worldwide comparable systemwide properties increased 6.9 percent (an 8.7 percent increase using actual dollars). Excluding the Middle East and Japan markets, worldwide comparable systemwide REVPAR rose 7.4 percent (a 9.0 percent increase using actual dollars).

International comparable systemwide REVPAR rose 6.9 percent (a 15.8 percent increase using actual dollars), including a 4.9 percent increase in average daily rate (a 13.6 percent increase using actual dollars) in the third quarter of 2011. Excluding the Middle East and Japan markets, international comparable systemwide constant dollar REVPAR increased 9.2 percent (an 18.7 percent increase using actual dollars).

In North America, comparable systemwide REVPAR increased 6.9 percent in the third quarter of 2011, including a 3.3 percent increase in average daily rate. Most North American markets reflected both strong demand increases and modest supply growth. REVPAR for comparable systemwide North American full-service and luxury hotels (including Marriott Hotels & Resorts, The Ritz-Carlton and Renaissance Hotels) increased 6.5 percent in the third quarter with a 3.7 percent increase in average daily rate. REVPAR for comparable systemwide North American limited-service hotels (including Courtyard, Residence Inn, SpringHill Suites, TownePlace Suites and Fairfield Inn & Suites) increased 7.3 percent in the third quarter with a 3.2 percent increase in average daily rate.

Marriott added 38 new properties (5,969 rooms) to its worldwide lodging portfolio in the 2011 third quarter, including the Ritz-Carlton Oman, the Boscolo Palace Roma, Autograph Collection, in Rome and the Courtyard Pune City Centre in India. Five properties (1,234 rooms) exited the system during the quarter. At quarter-end, the company’s lodging group encompassed nearly 3,700 properties and timeshare resorts for a total of more than 638,000 rooms.

The company’s worldwide pipeline of hotels under construction, awaiting conversion or approved for development totaled nearly 650 properties with over 105,000 rooms at quarter-end.

MARRIOTT REVENUES totaled nearly $2.9 billion in the 2011 third quarter compared to over $2.6 billion for the third quarter of 2010. Base management and franchise fees rose 12 percent to $260 million reflecting higher REVPAR at existing hotels, fees from new hotels and, to a lesser extent, favorable foreign exchange rates. Third quarter worldwide incentive management fees increased 38 percent to $29 million. In the third quarter, 24 percent of company-managed hotels earned incentive management fees compared to 23 percent in the year-ago quarter. Incentive management fees largely came from hotels outside of North America in both the 2011 and 2010 quarters.

North American comparable company-operated house profit margins increased 130 basis points in the third quarter primarily reflecting higher occupancy and rate increases. House profit margins for comparable company-operated properties outside North America increased 40 basis points, challenged by lower REVPAR in the Middle East and Japan.

Owned, leased, corporate housing and other revenue, net of direct expenses, increased from $7 million in the 2010 third quarter to $35 million, largely reflecting $13 million of higher credit card and residential branding fees, $8 million of higher termination fees and improved operating results at leased hotels.

In the third quarter, Timeshare segment contract sales increased $15 million to $179 million from segment contract sales of $164 million in the year-ago quarter. In the third quarter, 43 percent of timeshare contract sales came from new customers compared to 37 percent in the year ago quarter. Average contract price improved 45 percent year-over-year while volume per guest increased 10 percent in the third quarter.

In the third quarter, Timeshare sales and services revenue, net of expenses, declined $20 million to $36 million largely due to the year-over-year unfavorable impact of a $15 million adjustment to the Marriott Rewards liability recorded in the year-ago quarter and, to a lesser extent, lower interest income on a smaller mortgage portfolio.

Adjusted Timeshare segment results include Timeshare sales and services revenue, net of direct expenses, as well as base management fees, gains and other income, equity in earnings (losses), interest expense and general, administrative and other expenses associated with the timeshare

business. Adjusted Timeshare segment results for the 2011 third quarter totaled $22 million and included $10 million of interest expense related to securitized Timeshare notes. The adjustments to reported Timeshare segment results for the 2011 third quarter are shown on page A-10. In the prior year quarter, Timeshare segment results totaled $38 million and included $12 million of interest expense related to securitized Timeshare notes as shown on page A-10.

ADJUSTED GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE and OTHER expenses for the 2011 third quarter increased 14 percent to $170 million, compared to expenses of $149 million in the year-ago quarter. The adjustments to reported general, administrative and other expenses for the 2011 third quarter are shown on page A-1. The increase in adjusted expenses reflected several non-routine items including $8 million of transaction-related expenses associated with the spin-off of the timeshare business, $5 million related to the increase of a guarantee reserve for one hotel and the write-off of deferred contract acquisition costs. Adjusted general, administrative and other expenses also increased due to higher costs associated with growth in international markets and incentive compensation increases. The increase in adjusted expenses was partially offset by $6 million of lower legal expenses. The quarter-over-quarter variance also reflected the unfavorable impact of the $4 million reversal in the 2010 third quarter of an accrual related to a tax settlement on a European asset.

INTEREST EXPENSE decreased $2 million to $39 million in the third quarter, primarily due to lower average interest rates on and a decline in the outstanding balance of securitized Timeshare notes.

Adjusted Earnings before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)

Marriott International adjusted EBITDA totaled $240 million in the 2011 third quarter, a 9 percent increase over EBITDA of $220 million in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the Timeshare segment declined 35 percent to $39 million in the 2011 third quarter largely due to lower interest income and the year-over-year unfavorable impact of a third quarter 2010 adjustment to the Marriott Rewards liability. See pages A-12 and A-13 for the EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA calculations.

BALANCE SHEET

At the end of the third quarter 2011, total debt was $3,103 million, including $830 million of debt associated with securitized Timeshare mortgage notes, and cash balances totaled $220 million. At year-end 2010, total debt was $2,829 million, including $1,016 million of debt associated with securitized Timeshare mortgage notes, and cash balances totaled $505 million.

COMMON STOCK

Weighted average fully diluted shares outstanding used to calculate adjusted diluted EPS totaled 356.8 million in the 2011 third quarter compared to 378.1 million in the year-ago quarter.

The company repurchased 18.0 million shares of common stock in the third quarter of 2011 at a cost of $550 million. Year-to-date through September 9, 2011, Marriott repurchased 36.5 million shares of its stock for $1,225 million. The remaining share repurchase authorization, as of September 9, 2011, totaled 12.4 million shares.

2011 OUTLOOK

The company’s fourth quarter guidance assumes that the spin-off occurs at year-end 2011 and does not include pro forma adjustments or estimates of further transaction expenses. Such transaction costs could be material in the fourth quarter of 2011.

For the fourth quarter, the company assumes North American comparable systemwide REVPAR will increase 6 to 8 percent.

Outside North America, the company assumes fourth quarter 2011 comparable systemwide REVPAR on a constant dollar basis will increase 3 to 5 percent, or 5 to 7 percent excluding the Middle East and Japan markets.

On a worldwide basis, the company expects fourth quarter 2011 comparable systemwide REVPAR on a constant dollar basis will increase 5 to 7 percent, or 6 to 8 percent excluding the Middle East and Japan markets.

The company assumes fourth quarter 2011 Timeshare contract sales will total $200 million to $210 million and Timeshare sales and services revenue, net of direct expenses, will total approximately $68 million to $73 million. With these assumptions, Timeshare segment results, including interest expense associated with securitized notes, are expected to total $45 million to $50 million for the 2011 fourth quarter. Excluding the $324 million impairment charge recorded in the third quarter, adjusted Timeshare segment results, including interest expense associated with securitized notes, are expected to total $131 million to $136 million for full year 2011. The adjustments to full year 2011 estimated Timeshare segment results are shown on page A-18. The company further assumes that the timeshare spin-off will occur at year-end 2011.

Assumes the timeshare spin-off will occur at year-end 2011

2 

Fourth quarter 2011 General, administrative and other expenses does not include an estimate of transaction costs related to the timeshare spin-off. Full year 2011 General, administrative and other expenses includes $13 million of transaction costs related to the timeshare spin-off incurred in 2011 through the third quarter.

3 

Net of interest income

The company expects investment spending in 2011 will total approximately $500 million to $600 million, including $50 million to $100 million for maintenance capital spending. Investment spending will also include other capital expenditures (including property acquisitions), new mezzanine financing and mortgage notes, contract acquisition costs, and equity and other investments. The company does not expect material investment spending associated with the Timeshare segment in 2011.

 

7


The company expects to add more than 30,000 rooms in 2011 as most hotels expected to open are already under construction or undergoing conversion from other brands.

Based upon the assumptions above, the company expects full year 2011 adjusted EBITDA to total $1,112 million to $1,132 million, a 7 to 8 percent increase over the prior year’s adjusted EBITDA. This estimate of 2011 adjusted EBITDA reflects $13 million of transaction costs associated with the timeshare spin-off incurred in 2011 through the third quarter, but does not include transaction costs that may be incurred in the fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2010 totaled $1,044 million and is shown on page A-14.

2012 OUTLOOK

Given today’s economic uncertainty regarding 2012, the company is providing the following assumptions which investors may find useful in making their own estimates of 2012 results. With the exception of unit growth, these are not intended to be forecasts of future performance.

The company assumes full year 2012 comparable systemwide REVPAR on a constant dollar basis will increase 3 to 7 percent in North America, outside North America and worldwide.

The company expects to open approximately 30,000 rooms in 2012 as most hotels expected to open are already under construction or undergoing conversion from other brands.

Given these assumptions, full year 2012 fee revenue could total $1,420 million to $1,490 million. The assumed 2012 fee revenue reflects no timeshare base fees but includes $63 million to $65 million of timeshare royalty fees. The company’s 2011 estimate of fee revenue totals $1,307 million to $1,317 million and includes $58 million to $60 million of timeshare base management fees, but does not reflect any timeshare royalty fees.

Also given these assumptions, owned, leased, corporate housing and other revenue, net of direct expense, could total $130 million to $150 million in 2012, reflecting stronger results from owned and leased hotels and higher credit card branding fees somewhat offset by lower termination fees.

 

8


For 2012, the company expects general, administrative and other expenses to total $660 million to $675 million, an increase of 3 to 5 percent over 2011 levels excluding Timeshare segment general, administrative and other expenses and transaction costs related to the timeshare spin-off. Adjusted general, administrative and other expenses for 2011 are expected to total $723 million to $733 million reflecting $70 million to $75 million of Timeshare segment general, administrative and other expenses and $13 million of transaction costs incurred in 2011 through the third quarter related to the timeshare spin-off. The adjustment to full year 2011 estimated general, administrative and other expenses is shown on page A-16.

Given these assumptions, 2012 diluted EPS could total $1.48 to $1.68. The company estimates 2011 adjusted diluted EPS, excluding an estimated $0.10 to $0.11 diluted EPS impact from the Timeshare segment, could total $1.27 to $1.31. The estimated diluted EPS impact of the Timeshare segment on 2011 results is shown on page A-18 and the estimated 2011 adjusted diluted EPS is shown on page A-19.

In 2011, we changed the management reporting structure for properties located in Hawaii. Some base management fees we previously recognized under our International lodging segment we now recognize under our Timeshare segment. For comparability, we have reclassified prior year Timeshare segment revenues and segment results to reflect these changes. These reclassifications only impacted certain segment reporting (including the Timeshare segment) and did not change total consolidated revenue, operating income, or net income.

For the 12 Weeks Ended September 9, 2011 includes residential contract cancellation allowance reversals $3 million. Gross contract sales for the 2011 third quarter were $176 million before project specific contract cancellation allowance reversals.

For the 12 Weeks Ended September 10, 2010 includes fractional contract cancellation allowances of ($1) million. Gross contract sales for the 2010 third quarter were $165 million before the contract cancellation allowance.

In 2011, we changed the management reporting structure for lodging properties located in Hawaii. Some base management fees we previously recognized under our International lodging segment we now recognize under our Timeshare segment. For comparability, we have reclassified prior year Timeshare segment results to reflect these changes. These reclassifications only impacted certain segment reporting (including the Timeshare segment) and did not change total consolidated revenue, operating income, or net income.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

In our press release and schedules, and on the related conference call, we report certain financial measures that are not prescribed or authorized by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We discuss management’s reasons for reporting these non-GAAP measures below, and the press release schedules (or other reconciliations identified below) reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure that we refer to (identified by a double asterisk on the preceding pages). Although management evaluates and presents these non-GAAP measures for the reasons described below, please be aware that these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue, operating income, income from continuing operations, net income, earnings per share or any other comparable operating measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated and/or presented differently than measures with the same or similar names that are reported by other companies, and as a result, the non-GAAP measures we report may not be comparable to those reported by others.

Adjusted Measures That Exclude Certain Charges, Costs and Other Expenses. Management evaluates non-GAAP measures that exclude certain charges and tax items incurred in the 2011 third quarter, including Timeshare strategy-impairment charges, certain other charges, and Timeshare spin-off costs, and certain charges and tax items incurred in the 2010 fourth quarter because those non-GAAP measures allow for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of material charges. These non-GAAP measures also facilitate management’s comparison of results from our on-going operations before material charges with results from other lodging companies.

Timeshare Strategy-Impairment Charges. In preparing our Timeshare segment to operate as an independent, public company following our proposed spin-off of the stock of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (“MVW”) management assessed the Timeshare segment’s intended use of excess undeveloped land and built inventory and the current market conditions for those assets. On September 8, 2011, management approved a plan for the Timeshare segment to accelerate cash flow through the monetization of certain excess undeveloped land in the U.S., Mexico, and the Bahamas over the next 18 to 24 months and to accelerate sales of excess built luxury fractional and residential inventory over the next three years. As a result, because the nominal cash flows from the planned land sales and the estimated fair values of the land and excess built luxury inventory were less than their respective carrying values, we recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $324 million in our 2011 third quarter Income Statements under the “Timeshare strategy-impairment charges” caption. This charge was allocated to the Timeshare segment.

Certain Other Charges - 2011. We recorded charges of $28 million in the 2011 third quarter, which included an $18 million other-than-temporary impairment of an investment in marketable securities (recorded in the “(Losses) gains and other income” caption of our Income Statement), not allocated to any of our segments, and a charge totaling $10 million (recorded in the “General, administrative and other” caption of our Income Statements) related to the impairment of deferred contract acquisition costs and an accounts receivable reserve both of which were associated with a Luxury segment property whose owner filed for bankruptcy.

Timeshare Spin-off Costs - 2011. We recorded $8 million and $13 million of transaction-related expenses in the 2011 third quarter and first three quarters of 2011, respectively, (recorded in the “General, administrative and other” caption of our Income Statements and allocated to the Timeshare segment), related to the proposed spin-off of the timeshare business.

Certain Tax Items. Certain tax items included $32 million in the 2011 third quarter and $85 million in the 2010 fourth quarter. The $32 million consisted of non-cash charges related to the impairment of certain international deferred tax assets that we expect to transfer to MVW in conjunction with the planned spin-off of our timeshare operations and timeshare development business. We impaired these assets because we consider it “more likely than not” that MVW will be unable to realize the value of those deferred tax assets. The $85 million related to a settlement with the Appeals Division of the IRS that resolved all issues that arose in the audit of tax years 2005 through 2008. This settlement resulted in a decrease in tax expense for 2010 of approximately $85 million, which was due to the release of previously established tax liabilities for the treatment of funds received from certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. These tax items were not allocated to any of our segments, as we don’t allocate taxes to segments.

Certain Other Charges - 2010. We recorded net charges of $111 million in the 2010 fourth quarter which included an $84 million impairment charge associated with an internally developed software asset and a $27 million impairment charge associated with the anticipated disposition of a land parcel and a golf course. Both of these charges were recorded in the “General, administrative and other” caption of our Income Statements. These charges were partially offset by an $11 million reversal recorded in the 2010 fourth quarter of a funding liability recorded in 2009. This reversal was recorded in the “Equity in losses” caption of our Income Statements. Due to the significant impact of the recent recession on hotel owner profitability, we agreed to absorb a portion of the cost of the software asset and recorded an $84 million impairment charge on the investment in the 2010 fourth quarter to reflect the expected unrecovered cost. Except for the impairment charges totaling $27 million of which $13 million impacted our Timeshare Segment and $14 million impacted our North American Limited-Service segment, the rest of the other charges in 2010 were not allocated to any of our segments.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (cont.)

 

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) reflects earnings excluding the impact of interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Management considers EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance because we use it to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, and expand our business. We also use EBITDA, as do analysts, lenders, investors and others, to evaluate companies because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.

Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (described below) exclude certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make.

Adjusted EBITDA. Management also evaluates Adjusted EBITDA as an indicator of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the $324 million of Timeshare strategy-impairment charges and $28 million of other charges recorded in the 2011 third quarter, as well as $100 million of net charges recorded in the 2010 fourth quarter for the reasons noted above under “Adjusted Measures That Exclude Certain Charges, Costs and Other Expenses.”

Timeshare Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Timeshare segment EBITDA reflects Timeshare segment results excluding the impact of interest expense, tax expense and depreciation and amortization. Timeshare segment adjusted EBITDA reflects EBITDA excluding Timeshare-strategy impairment charges recorded in the 2011 third quarter. We do not allocate taxes to our Timeshare or other segments. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for the reasons noted previously under the “EBITDA” caption and “Adjusted Measures That Exclude Certain Charges, Costs and Other Expenses” captions.

Adjusted Pretax Margin Excluding Reimbursed Costs. Cost reimbursements revenue represents reimbursements of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties and relates, predominantly, to payroll costs at managed properties where we are the employer. As we record cost reimbursements based upon costs incurred with no added markup, this revenue and related expense has no impact on either our operating income or net income because cost reimbursements revenue net of reimbursed costs expense is zero. We consider total revenues excluding costs reimbursements and therefore, adjusted pretax margin excluding reimbursed costs to be meaningful metrics as they represent that portion of revenue and pretax margin that impacts operating income and net income.

Adjusted Measures that Exclude the Impact of the Timeshare Segment and Include An Estimated Royalty Fee. On February 14, 2011, we announced a plan to separate the company’s businesses into two separate, publicly traded companies. Under the plan, we expect to spin-off our timeshare operations and timeshare development business as a new independent company through a special tax-free dividend to our shareholders in the 2011 fourth quarter. Management evaluates non-GAAP measures that, for prior years and the forecasted full current year, exclude the impact of the Timeshare segment and include the impact of the payment of an estimated royalty fee (as if the spin-off had occurred on either the first day of 2007 or 2011, as applicable) from the new timeshare company for the use of the Marriott timeshare and Ritz-Carlton fractional brands in order to better perform year-over-year comparisons on a comparable basis.

2007 Results as Adjusted. Management evaluates these non-GAAP measures that exclude the charge associated with the 2007 settlement of issues raised during the IRS’ and Department of Labor’s examination of the employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) feature of our Employees’ Profit Sharing, Retirement and Savings Plan and Trust, assumes the spin-off occurred on the first day of 2007, and accordingly exclude the Timeshare segment and include the payment of an estimated royalty fee from MVW because these measures allows for period-over-period comparisons for our on-going operations before material charges and after giving effect to the anticipated spin-off. These non-GAAP measures also facilitate management’s comparison of results from our on-going operations before material charges with those of other lodging companies. The ESOP settlement resulted in an after-tax charge of $54 million in the second quarter of 2007 reflecting $35 million of excise taxes (impacting general, administrative, and other expenses), $13 million of interest expense on those excise taxes and $6 million of income tax expense primarily reflecting additional interest.
