Hilton Grand Vacations Announces Pricing of Senior Secured Notes

Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (NYSE:HGV) (“HGV” or “the Company”) has priced an offering of $900 million aggregate principal amount of new 6.625% senior secured notes due 2032 (the “notes”) to be issued by its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, LLC and Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, Inc. (the “Offering”). To the extent the Offering closes concurrently with the Acquisition (as defined below), the notes will be issued by Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower LLC and Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Inc. (together, the “surviving issuers”) instead of Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, LLC and Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, Inc.

The notes will mature on Jan. 15, 2032. The Offering is expected to close on Jan. 17, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions.

The private Offering is part of the financing for the Company’s proposed acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Bluegreen Vacations Holding Corporation (“BVH”) and is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). To the extent the Offering does not close concurrently with the Acquisition, Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, LLC and Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, Inc., which were created solely to issue the notes and for other financing transactions related to the Acquisition, will deposit the gross proceeds of the Offering into a segregated escrow account until the date that certain escrow release conditions are satisfied. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, LLC and Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Escrow, Inc. will merge with and into Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower LLC and Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower Inc., respectively, each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and, to the extent the Offering does not close concurrently with the Acquisition, the escrow proceeds will be released. The surviving issuers will thereupon assume the obligations under the notes. To the extent the Offering closes concurrently with the Acquisition, the surviving issuers will issue the notes, and the escrow provisions described above will not apply. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, the notes will be guaranteed by Hilton Grand Vacations Inc., Hilton Grand Vacations Parent LLC, also a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and certain of Hilton Grand Vacations Borrower LLC’s existing and future subsidiaries (collectively, the “guarantors”). The notes and the related guarantees will be secured on a first-priority basis by substantially all assets of the surviving issuers and the guarantors, which assets also secure the Company’s senior secured credit facilities, subject to certain exceptions.

On Nov. 6, 2023, HGV announced it would acquire BVH for $75 per share in an all-cash transaction, representing total consideration of approximately $1.5 billion, inclusive of net debt.

Upon the closing of the Acquisition and release of the net proceeds of the Offering from the escrow account (if applicable), HGV intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to (i) finance the consummation of the Acquisition, (ii) repay certain outstanding indebtedness and (iii) pay related fees, costs, premiums and expenses in connection with these transactions.

The notes and related guarantees have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption. The notes are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act or, outside the United States, to persons other than “U.S. persons” in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the notes and related guarantees and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
