Hilton Grand Vacations Completes ¥9.5188 Billion Term Securitization
ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (NYSE:HGV) announces today the completion of a ¥9.5188 billion securitization of timeshare loans through Hilton Grand Vacations Japan Trust 2025-1 ('the Trust' or 'SMRAI'). One class of Notes were issued by the Trust, bearing a rating of AAA by Standard & Poor's. The Note has a coupon rate of 1.41%. 'This achievement represents the culmination of decades of effort, underscoring not only the strength of our industry-leading presence in Japan but also the power of our team's ability to collaborate and deliver results on a global scale,' said Mark Wang, CEO of Hilton Grand Vacations. 'I want to extend my congratulations to everyone involved in bringing this landmark deal to life.' HGV has nearly 75,000 members in Japan and currently operates two world-class properties across the country: The Beach Resort Sesoko, a Hilton Club, which opened in October 2021, and The Bay Forest Odawara, a Hilton Club, which opened in 2018. The company's latest addition, Tradimo Kyoto Gojo, a Hilton Grand Vacations Club, anticipated to be completed in the first quarter of 2026, will feature 63 modern one-bedroom timeshare units. This new property will be ideally located in the historic Kyoto tourism and business district. 'This deal marks an exciting milestone as it builds on our financing business optimization strategy and demonstrates our ability to execute novel and complex cross-border transactions,' said Dan Mathewes, president and chief financial officer of Hilton Grand Vacations. 'Although modest in scale to start, this deal unlocks access to highly cost-effective capital. As the program grows, it offers a source of inexpensive capital and creates a unique opportunity to generate highly accretive returns through share repurchases coupled with inexpensive financing.' Proceeds of the issuance, net of fees, will be used for general corporate purposes. MUFG served as the Structuring Lead Manager and Bookrunner. Greenberg Traurig, LLP (Tokyo), and Alston and Bird LLP represented HGV as issuer counsel.

Hilton Grand Vacations Named One of Nation's Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces by Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption
Vacation-ownership company leads Hotel and Travel Industry in adoption benefits category for sixth consecutive year ORLANDO, Fla., June 09, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (NYSE:HGV), the premier vacation ownership and experiences company, has yet again been ranked among the top 100 companies on Dave Thomas Foundation's "Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces" list, which honors organizations that support its employees in building their families through adoption and foster care. For the sixth consecutive year, HGV leads in the hotel and travel industry on the Foundation's "Best By Industry" list. "It's an incredible honor to be recognized once again by the Dave Thomas Foundation for our exceptional adoption assistance benefits," said Mark Wang, CEO of Hilton Grand Vacations. "This award underscores our unwavering commitment to supporting our team members at every stage of life. Our adoption assistance and parental leave programs exemplifies our family-first culture and our dedication to helping team members achieve their personal goals and dreams outside of work." The company offers corporate, hourly and resort-based team members an adoption assistance benefit of up to $10,000 per child to help offset the cost of adoption. HGV also provides 12 weeks of paid parental leave for all eligible U.S. team members who have been with the company for 90 days. The parental leave program applies to birth and adoptive mothers and fathers, as well as team members who have a child via surrogacy. "We know that these benefits can play a role in a family's decision to grow through foster care or adoption," said Rita Soronen, president and CEO of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. "The organizations recognized this year demonstrate that these supports are not optional perks — they are essential elements of a workplace that values and strengthens families." The Foundation partnered with RTI International, an independent, nonprofit research institute, to survey employers across the U.S. and score participants based on three criteria: financial reimbursement, paid leave and the percentage of employees eligible for those benefits. In addition to the 100 Best and Adoption Advocates lists, the Foundation ranks employers by size, industry, paid leave, foster care benefits and impact.
