Bluegreen Vacations Corporation BXG ("Bluegreen" or the "Company") today reported its second quarter 2019 financial results.
2Q19 Highlights:
- (Loss) Earnings per Share ("EPS") of $(0.15), compared to $0.36 in the prior year quarter.
- Net loss attributable to shareholders was $(11.2 million), compared to net earnings of $26.7 million in the prior year quarter.
- Included in this quarter's results are expenses related to our settlement with Bass Pro of $39.1 million, or $0.39 per share
- Adjusted EBITDA of $28.7 million, compared to $41.9 million in the prior year quarter.
- Total revenue of $195.6 million, compared to $194.9 million in the prior year quarter.
- System-wide Sales of Vacation Ownership Interests ("VOIs") of $163.6 million, compared to $172.0 million in the prior year quarter.
"We are pleased that during the quarter we came to a resolution of our differences with our long-time partner, Bass Pro Shops. The settlement agreement not only reinstated all of our marketing activities in Bass Pro retail stores, but resolved the issues which were delaying the expansion of our network into Cabela's retail stores, which we believe positions us to reach an even broader audience," said Shawn B. Pearson, Chief Executive Officer and President. "We also saw early indications of progress in our efforts to combat third-party exit firms as we realized lower default rates and provisions for loan losses in the quarter. We are eager to refocus our attention on enhancing engagement with our current owners and new owners, both through our existing sales channels as well as with new prospective marketing partners. Bluegreen offers attractive and affordable vacation options in popular, high-volume, ‘drive-to' locations, which we believe will continue to resonate with consumers. We anticipate that our efforts will take some time to flow through to our results, but we are confident that the actions we are taking today will translate into enhanced performance over time."

Bluegreen's "capital-light" revenue includes revenue from the sales of VOIs under fee-based sales and marketing arrangements, just-in-time inventory acquisition arrangements, and secondary market arrangements, as well as other fee-based services revenue and cost reimbursements revenue. |
Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $195.6 million, compared to $194.9 million in the prior year period, primarily due to increases in resort operations and club management revenue and interest income, and a decrease in the provision for loan loss, partially offset by a decrease in VOI sales as discussed more fully under "Segment Results" below. Adjusted EBITDA was $28.7 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to $41.9 million in the second quarter of 2018, primarily due to lower VOI sales and higher cost of VOI sales and net carrying cost of inventory, partially offset by a lower provision for loan losses and higher profit on resort operations and club management operations.
In terms of segment results, decreased results in the Sales of VOIs and Financing segment were partially offset by growth in the Resort Operations and Club Management segment, as more fully described below.

During the second quarter of 2019, system-wide sales of VOIs were $163.6 million, compared to $172.0 million in the second quarter of 2018. The year over year change in sales was primarily driven by a lower sale-to-tour conversion ratio, which resulted in a lower average sales volume per guest ("VPG"), in part due to disruptions at sales offices related to the Bass Pro matter, which has subsequently been resolved as described under Bass Pro Settlement below. Package sales volumes in the second quarter of 2019 increased approximately 7% compared to the second quarter of 2018 following an 8% increase in the first quarter, and these increases are expected to result in increased guest tours over the next six to 18 months. However, the growth in package sales occurred in channels that are typically not as efficient as Bass Pro, in which the Company experienced a decrease in package sales during the quarter due to the period of time we were denied access to the Bass Pro stores.
Provision for loan losses decreased to 14.9% of gross VOI sales, compared to 16.4% in the prior year second quarter. As previously disclosed, the Company's default rates in recent years have been adversely impacted by the actions of "timeshare exist firms" which had been encouraging some VOI owners to become delinquent and ultimately default on their obligations. The Company believes that the improvement in its default rates in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018 is in part due to its zero-tolerance strategy and ongoing steps to address this issue, which has resulted in a reduction of cease and desist letters received and a reduction in average annual default rates and correspondingly the provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2019. The Company's provision for loan losses has recently ranged between 14.9% and 20.7%, and expectations for the remainder of 2019 are below the midpoint of that range.
Fee-based sales commission revenue was $55.3 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared to $60.1 million in the second quarter of 2018. The period over period change reflected lower sales of third-party VOI inventory, due to lower system-wide sales as described above, as well as an average fee-based sales commission of 66% during the second quarter of 2019 as compared to 67% during the comparable prior year period.
In the second quarter of 2019, cost of VOIs sold represented 15.5% of sales of VOIs compared to 9.9% in the second quarter of 2018. Cost of VOIs sold as a percentage of sales of VOIs varies between periods based on the relative costs of the specific VOIs sold in each period and the size of the point packages of the VOIs sold. During the second quarter of 2018, the cost of sales benefited from VOI sales of relatively lower cost VOIs as to compared to the second quarter of 2019 where VOI sales were of relatively higher cost VOIs. Cost of VOIs sold is expected to range from 10% to 15% for the remainder of 2019.
Net carrying cost of inventory increased $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018, primarily due to the carrying cost associated with the Éilan Hotel and Spa, which was acquired in April 2018 and increased maintenance fees and developer subsidies associated with the increase in VOI inventory as well as decreased net operating profits from the Company's sampler program.
Selling and marketing expense increased to 51% of system-wide sales of VOIs during the second quarter of 2019 as compared to 48% during the second quarter of 2018. The increase in selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of system-wide sales of VOIs is primarily attributable to higher costs per guest tour and a lower VPG, due in part to decreased sales associated with disruptions in the Company's sales offices as a result of the recently resolved Bass Pro dispute, as well as changes in our yield management program during the 2019 period.

In the second quarter of 2019, resort operations and management club revenue increased by $3.7 million, or 9.1%, to $45.0 million from the prior year quarter. The increase was driven primarily by the full period of management fees in 2019 related to managed resorts added during 2018 and higher third-party rental commissions. Segment adjusted EBITDA grew by 5.4% to $14.5 million.
Bass Pro Settlement
As previously disclosed, on April 17, 2019, Bass Pro and its affiliates brought an action against the Company, alleging that the Company failed to pay certain commissions due it under the parties' marketing agreement, amongst other alleged breaches. On May 24, 2019, the Company received notice from Bass Pro and its affiliates that it was terminating the marketing agreement based on the failure to cure the alleged breaches. Subsequently, the Company filed a counter claim against Bass Pro and its affiliates.
On June 13, 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement which resolved the action filed by Bass Pro and reinstated and amended the marketing agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, Bass Pro agreed to reinstate the Company's access to Bass Pro's marketing channels, including Bass Pro and Cabela's retail stores. Additionally, with no admission of any wrongdoing, the Company paid Bass Pro $20 million within 15 days after the execution of the settlement agreement; the Company agreed to pay Bass Pro $4 million on each January 1 from 2020 through 2024; and the Company agreed that Bass Pro would keep the remaining $1.5 million of an amount prepaid to them earlier in 2019 under the marketing agreement. Additionally, in lieu of the previous commission arrangement, the Company agreed to pay Bass Pro a fixed annual fee of $70,000 for each Bass Pro and Cabela's retail store that it accesses (excluding retail stores which are designated to provide tours to Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, or "Bluegreen/Big Cedar Feeder Stores") plus $32 per net vacation package sold (less cancellations and refunds within 45 days of sale), excluding sales at Bluegreen/Big Cedar Feeder Stores. The fixed annual fee will be prorated for the remainder of 2019. Subject to the terms and conditions of the settlement agreement, the Company will generally be required to pay the fixed annual fee with respect to at least 60 Bass Pro retail stores and a minimum number of Cabela's retail stores that increases over time to a total of at least 60 Cabela's retail stores by the end of 2021. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the minimum number of Bass Pro and Cabela's retail stores for purposes of the fixed annual fee may be reduced under certain circumstances set forth in the settlement agreement, including as a result of a reduction of traffic in the stores in excess of 25% year-over-year. The Company also agreed to contribute to the Wonders of Wildlife Foundation $5.00 per net package sold (less cancellations and refunds within 45 days of sale), subject to an annual minimum of $700,000 which was not prorated for 2019. The parties executed mutual waivers and releases and agreed to the dismissal of the litigation.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2019, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $180.2 million. Bluegreen had availability of approximately $150.6 million under its receivable-backed purchase and credit facilities and corporate credit line as of June 30, 2019, subject to eligible collateral and the terms of the facilities, as applicable. Excluding receivable-backed notes payable, the Company's net debt-to-EBITDA ratio as of June 30, 2019 was .23.
Free cash flow, which the Company defines as cash flow from operating activities, less capital expenditures, was $(2. 9) million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in free cash flow was primarily attributable to the $20.0 million payment to Bass Pro in June 2019, partially offset by decreased spending on the acquisition and development of inventory in the 2019 period.
Dividend
On July 30, 2019, Bluegreen's Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.17 per share. The dividend is payable on August 27, 2019 to shareholders of record as of the close of trading on August 13, 2019.

BLUEGREEN VACATIONS CORPORATION
DEFINITIONS
Principal Components Affecting our Results of Operations
Principal Components of Revenue
Fee-Based Sales. Represent sales of third-party VOIs where we are paid a commission.
JIT Sales. Represent sales of VOIs acquired from third parties in close proximity to when we intend to sell such VOIs.
Secondary Market Sales. Represent sales of VOIs acquired from HOAs or other owners, typically in connection with HOA maintenance fee defaults. This inventory is generally purchased at a greater discount to retail price compared to developed VOI sales and JIT sales.
Developed VOI Sales. Represent sales of VOIs in resorts that we have developed or acquired (not including inventory acquired through JIT and secondary market arrangements).
Financing Revenue. Represents revenue from the financing of VOI sales, which includes interest income and loan servicing fees. This also includes fees from certain third-party developers for providing mortgage servicing of loans granted by them to purchasers of their VOIs.
Resort Operations and Club Management Revenue. Represents recurring fees from managing the Vacation Club and transaction fees for certain resort amenities and certain member exchanges. We also earn recurring management fees under our management agreements with HOAs for day-to-day management services, including oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance, and certain accounting and administrative functions.
Other Fee-Based Services. Represents revenue earned from various other services that produce recurring, predictable and long-term revenue, such as title services.
Principal Components of Expenses
Cost of VOIs Sold. Represents the cost at which our owned VOIs sold during the period were relieved from inventory. In addition to inventory from our VOI business, our owned VOIs also include those that were acquired by us under JIT and secondary market arrangements. Compared to the cost of our developed VOI inventory, VOIs acquired in connection with JIT arrangements typically have a relatively higher associated cost of sales as a percentage of sales while those acquired in connection with secondary market arrangements typically have a lower cost of sales as a percentage of sales as secondary market inventory is generally obtained from HOAs at a significant discount to retail price. Cost of VOIs sold as a percentage of sales of VOIs varies between periods based on the relative costs of the specific VOIs sold in each period and the size of the point packages of the VOIs sold (primarily due to offered volume discounts, and taking into account consideration of cumulative sales to existing owners). Additionally, the effect of changes in estimates under the relative sales value method, including estimates of projected sales, future defaults, upgrades and incremental revenue from the resale of repossessed VOI inventory, are reflected on a retrospective basis in the period the change occurs. Cost of sales will typically be favorably impacted in periods where a significant amount of secondary market VOI inventory is acquired or actual defaults and equity trades are higher and the resulting change in estimate is recognized. While we believe that there is additional inventory that can be obtained through the secondary market at favorable prices to us in the future, there can be no assurance that such inventory will be available as expected.
Net Carrying Cost of VOI Inventory. Represents the maintenance fees and developer subsidies for unsold VOI inventory paid or accrued to the HOAs that maintain the resorts. We attempt to offset this expense, to the extent possible, by generating revenue from renting our VOIs and by utilizing the inventory in our sampler programs. We net such revenue from this expense item.
Selling and Marketing Expense. Represents costs incurred to sell and market VOIs, including costs relating to marketing and incentive programs, tours, and related wages and sales commissions. Revenue from vacation package sales are netted against selling and marketing expenses.
Financing Expense. Represents financing interest expense related to our receivable-backed debt, amortization of the related debt issuance costs and other expenses incurred in providing financing and servicing loans, including administrative costs associated with mortgage servicing activities for our loans and the loans of certain third-party developers. Mortgage servicing activities include, amongst other things, payment processing, reporting and collection services.
Resort Operations and Club Management Expense. Represents costs incurred to manage resorts and the Vacation Club, including payroll and related costs and other administrative costs to the extent not reimbursed by the Vacation Club or HOAs.
General and Administrative Expense. Primarily represents compensation expense for personnel supporting our business and operations, professional fees (including consulting, audit and legal fees), and administrative and related expenses.
Key Business and Financial Metrics and Terms Used by Management
Sales of VOIs. Represent sales of our owned VOIs, including developed VOIs and those acquired through JIT and secondary market arrangements, reduced by equity trade allowances and an estimate of our provision for loan losses. In addition to the factors impacting system-wide sales of VOIs, sales of VOIs are impacted by the proportion of system-wide sales of VOIs sold on behalf of third-parties on a commission basis, which are not included in sales of VOIs.
System-wide Sales of VOIs. Represents all sales of VOIs, whether owned by us or a third party immediately prior to the sale. Sales of VOIs owned by third parties are transacted as sales of VOIs in our Vacation Club through the same selling and marketing process we use to sell our VOI inventory. We consider system-wide sales of VOIs to be an important operating measure because it reflects all sales of VOIs by our sales and marketing operations without regard to whether we or a third party owned such VOI inventory at the time of sale. System-wide sales of VOIs is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to sales of VOIs or any other measure of financial performance derived in accordance with GAAP or to any other method of analyzing our results as reported under GAAP.
Guest Tours. Represents the number of sales presentations given at our sales centers during the period.
Sale to Tour Conversion Ratio. Represents the rate at which guest tours are converted to sales of VOIs and is calculated by dividing the number of sales transactions by the number of guest tours.
Average Sales Volume Per Guest ("VPG"). Represents the sales attributable to each guest tour at our sales locations and is calculated by dividing VOI sales by guest tours. We consider VPG to be an important operating measure because it measures the effectiveness of our sales process, combining the average transaction price with the sale-to-tour conversion ratio.
Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings, or net income (loss), before taking into account interest income (excluding interest earned on VOI notes receivable), interest expense (excluding interest expense incurred on debt secured by our VOI notes receivable), income and franchise taxes, loss (gain) on assets held for sale, depreciation and amortization, amounts attributable to the non-controlling interest in Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations (in which we own a 51% interest), and items that we believe are not representative of ongoing operating results, including $39.1 million of expenses incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 in connection with the Bass Pro Settlement. For purposes of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, no adjustments were made for interest income earned on our VOI notes receivable or the interest expense incurred on debt that is secured by such notes receivable because they are both considered to be part of the operations of our business.
We consider our total Adjusted EBITDA and our Segment Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of our operating performance, and it is used by us to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by companies, lenders, investors and others 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. Adjusted 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.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity, including cash flow, derived in accordance with GAAP, or to any other method or analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. The limitations of using Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool include, without limitation, that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (i) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (ii) our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness (other than as noted above); (iii) our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; (iv) historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; or (v) the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations or performance. Further, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. In addition, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to definitions of Adjusted EBITDA or other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
