Debt Covenants
The revolving credit facility and term loan B facility are subject to covenants including the maintenance of specific financial ratios as defined in the credit agreement. The financial ratio covenants consist of a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.0 as of the measurement date and a maximum first lien leverage ratio of 4.25 to 1.0 as of the measurement date. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) by consolidated interest expense (as defined in the credit agreement), both as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. The first lien leverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated first lien debt (as defined in the credit agreement) as of the measurement date by consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s interest coverage ratio was 5.06 to 1.0 and the first lien leverage ratio was 3.16 to 1.0. These ratios do not include interest expense or indebtedness related to any qualified securitization financing (as defined in the credit agreement). As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants described above.
Each of the Company’s non-recourse securitized term notes and bank conduit facilities contain various triggers relating to the performance of the applicable loan pools. If the VOCR pool that collateralizes one of the Company’s securitization notes fails to perform within the parameters established by the contractual triggers (such as higher default or delinquency rates), there are provisions pursuant to which the cash flows for that pool will be maintained in the securitization as extra collateral for the note holders or applied to accelerate the repayment of outstanding principal to the note holders. As of March 31, 2026, all of the Company’s securitized loan pools were in compliance with applicable contractual triggers.
Interest Expense
The Company incurred interest expense of $56 million and $57 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, excluding interest expense associated with non-recourse vacation ownership debt. These amounts include offsets of less than $1 million of capitalized interest during each period. Cash paid related to such interest was $66 million and $54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
Interest expense incurred in connection with the Company’s non-recourse vacation ownership debt was $33 million and $34 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. These amounts are included within Consumer financing interest on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash paid related to such interest was $26 million and $28 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
