“Interval Leisure Group started 2012 with success at every level.  ILG’s consolidated revenue increased by 8.3%, which was driven by an improvement of 4.6% in Membership and Exchange and 25.7% in Management and Rental.  This incremental topline growth reflects a meaningful contribution from Interval International’s new products and services, strong results at Aston and Trading Places and the addition of Vacation Resorts International, our most recent acquisition.  Average revenue per Interval Network member is at a five-year high, while Platinum membership and Club Interval Gold products are being adopted by our developer clients at an impressive rate,” said Craig M. Nash, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Interval Leisure Group. “The shared ownership industry is seeing signs of renewed optimism as new capital returns to the market and the number of tours by prospective buyers is increasing.”

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

 

First Quarter 2012 Consolidated Operating Results

 

Consolidated revenue for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $126.7 million, an increase of 8.3% from $117.0 million for the first quarter of 2011.

 

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $15.2 million, an increase of 15.4% from net income of $13.2 million for the same period of 2011. The year over year increase in net income reflects a $3.2 million increase in operating income resulting from higher gross profit in the quarter, partly offset by unfavorable non-operating foreign currency fluctuations of $1.3 million. First quarter 2012 diluted earnings per share was $0.27 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.23 for the same period of 2011.

 



 

Adjusted EBITDA (defined below) was $47.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $44.4 million for the same period of 2011.  Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter excludes the impact of $3.1 million in non-cash compensation as well as other non-operating expenses primarily consisting of a non-operating foreign currency exchange net loss of $2.2 million.

 

Business Segment Results

 

Membership and Exchange

 

Membership and Exchange segment revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $100.9 million, an increase of 4.6% from the comparable period in 2011.

 

For the first quarter of 2012, transaction revenue was $61.2 million, an increase of 8.5%, and membership revenue of $32.6 million was consistent with the same period in 2011.

 

Total active members at March 31, 2012 were approximately 1,845,000, an increase of 1.5% from March 31, 2011.  Average revenue per member for the first quarter of 2012 was $52.32, an increase of 4.4% from the first quarter of 2011.  During the first quarter of 2012, Interval affiliated 25 vacation ownership resorts in domestic and international markets.

 

Membership and Exchange segment Adjusted EBITDA was $43.5 million in the first quarter, an increase of 5.1% from the first quarter 2011. Membership and Exchange segment Adjusted EBITDA reflects an improvement in segment revenue and excludes $2.2 million of non-operating foreign exchange net losses.

 

Management and Rental

 

Management and Rental segment revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $25.8 million, including $12.4 million of management fee and rental revenue (defined below). Year-over-year, management fee and rental revenue grew by 39.3%. The improvement was primarily driven by management fee and rental revenue due to the acquisition of Vacation Resorts International (VRI), increased revenue from Trading Places (TPI) and improvement in revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) at Aston. Aston RevPAR for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $143.75 compared to $126.25 for the same period in 2011, resulting from a 9.1% higher average daily rate (ADR) and a 4.3% improvement in occupancy rates during the quarter.

 



 

In the first quarter of 2012, Management and Rental segment Adjusted EBITDA was $4.3 million, an increase of 46.1% from the prior year period.

 

Capital Resources and Liquidity

 

As of March 31, 2012, ILG’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $179.9 million, compared to $195.5 million as of December 31, 2011. The Company’s total debt outstanding was $335.8 million, net of unamortized bond discount, as of March 31, 2012. During the current quarter, the Company made a $5.0 million voluntary prepayment of principal on its term loan.

 

On or after September 1, 2012, we are able to redeem ILG’s senior notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Given the current favorable interest rate environment, it is our intention to call and refinance these senior notes. ILG is currently evaluating options with respect to how and when to effectuate this transaction.

 

For the first quarter of 2012, ILG’s capital expenditures totaled $3.1 million, or 2.5% of revenue, net cash provided by operating activities was $37.6 million and free cash flow (defined below) was $34.5 million. Total interest paid during the first quarter was $14.6 million.

 

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

ILG management believes that the presentation of non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) financial measures, including, among others, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, serves to enhance the understanding of ILG’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to and not as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, Adjusted EBITDA (with certain additional add-backs) is used to calculate compliance with certain financial covenants in ILG’s credit agreement. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve the transparency of our disclosures, provide meaningful presentations of our results from our business operations excluding the impact of certain items not related to our core business operations and improve the period to period comparability of results from business operations. These measures may also be useful in comparing our results to those of other companies; however, our calculations may differ from the calculations of these measures used by other companies. More information about the non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations of GAAP results to the non-GAAP measures, is available in the financial tables that accompany this press release.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

 

Ancillary Member Revenue - Other Interval Network member related revenue including insurance and travel related services.

 

Available Room Nights - Number of nights available for rental by Aston at managed vacation properties during the period, which excludes all rooms under renovation.

 

Average Revenue per Member - Membership fee revenue, transaction revenue and ancillary member revenue for the Interval Network for the applicable period, divided by the monthly weighted average number of Interval Network active members during the applicable period.

 

EBITDA - Net income excluding, if applicable: (1) interest income and interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation expense, and (4) amortization expense of intangibles.

 

Adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA, excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) goodwill and asset impairments and (3) other non-operating income and expense. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
