SECOND QUARTER 2008 OPERATING RESULTS

Revenues for the second quarter of 2008 were $1.1 billion, up 3% compared to the second quarter of 2007. The Company also reported EBITDA growth in each of its three business units during the second quarter of 2008, compared to the second quarter of 2007.

Net income for the second quarter of 2008 was $98 million or $0.55 diluted earnings per share, compared to $96 million or $0.52 diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2007.

Excluding $4 million in after-tax net benefit from the resolution of, and adjustment to, certain legacy items, adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2008 would have been $94 million, or $0.53 adjusted diluted earnings per share, an 8% increase compared to $89 million, or adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.49 in the second quarter of 2007. Adjusted net income in the second quarter of 2007 excluded $4 million in after-tax separation and related costs and $11 million in after-tax net benefit from the resolution of, and adjustment to, certain legacy items.

On May 1, 2008, the Company provided second quarter EPS guidance of $0.46-$0.48, which assumed $25-$35 million in percentage-of-completion (POC) related deferred revenue. Actual results included $5 million in POC related deferred revenue.

BUSINESS UNIT RESULTS

Lodging (Wyndham Hotel Group)

Revenues increased 8% to $200 million in the second quarter of 2008 compared with the second quarter of 2007, reflecting higher international revenues, incremental property management reimbursable revenues and increased revenue generated by the Company's loyalty program.

System-wide RevPAR increased 1.4% in the second quarter of 2008, reflecting strong international growth of 15.2%, or 8.4% in constant currency, and a decline in domestic RevPAR of 3.7%. Comparable RevPAR increased 0.6% over the prior year period.

Property management reimbursable revenues were $26 million and marketing/reservation revenues, including Wyndham Rewards revenues, were $77 million in the second quarter of 2008, compared to $22 million and $75 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2007; these items contribute little, if any, EBITDA.

Second quarter 2008 EBITDA grew to $62 million compared to $59 million in the second quarter of 2007.

As of June 30, 2008, the Company's hotel system consisted of approximately 6,560 properties and 551,500 rooms, of which 20% were international, with a development pipeline of approximately 930 hotels and approximately 109,000 rooms, of which 50% were new construction and over 40% were international.

Vacation Exchange and Rentals (Group RCI)

Revenues increased to $314 million in the second quarter of 2008, a 9% increase compared with the second quarter of 2007, reflecting growth in the average number of members and an increase in the average net price per vacation rental, including favorable currency translations. In constant currency, revenues increased 4% compared to the second quarter of 2007.

Vacation rentals revenues were $153 million, up 12% compared to the second quarter of 2007, or a 3% increase in constant currency. These results reflect a 15% increase in the average net price per vacation rental, or 5% in constant currency, primarily due to favorable mix, and the conversion of an existing Landal park from franchised to a managed property. The gains in the average net price per vacation rental were partially offset by a 2% decline in rental transaction volume which we believe is due to customers booking their vacations closer to the actual travel dates.

Annual dues and exchange revenues were $119 million, up 2% compared to the second quarter of 2007, or a 1% increase in constant currency. The increase was primarily driven by a 5% increase in the average number of members, partially offset by a 3% decrease in the average revenue per member.

Other ancillary revenues were $42 million, up 17% compared to the second quarter of 2007. The increase was primarily due to an adjustment recorded during the second quarter of 2007 that reduced Asia Pacific consulting revenue by $5 million and EBITDA by $6 million.

Second quarter 2008 EBITDA was $54 million, compared to second quarter 2007 EBITDA of $49 million. In constant currency, EBITDA increased $5 million compared to the second quarter of 2007.

Vacation Ownership (Wyndham Vacation Ownership)

Gross Vacation Ownership Interest sales were $532 million for the second quarter of 2008, up 2% compared to the second quarter of 2007. This increase was primarily driven by a 3% increase in tour flow.

Consumer finance revenues increased $16 million to $104 million in the second quarter of 2008, up 18% compared to the second quarter of 2007, reflecting continued growth in the portfolio due to higher gross VOI sales.

Reported revenues were $621 million in the second quarter of 2008, down 1% compared to the second quarter of 2007, reflecting a higher provision for loan losses. Deferred revenue under the POC method of accounting was $5 million during both the 2008 and 2007 periods.

EBITDA for the second quarter of 2008 was $112 million, compared to $100 million in the second quarter of 2007, which included $5 million of separation and related costs.

Other Items

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2008 was $18 million, unchanged from the second quarter of 2007. Interest income for the quarter was $3 million, up $1 million from the comparable prior year period. Depreciation and amortization increased $5 million to $46 million reflecting increased capital investments over the past two years.
Balance Sheet Information as of June 30, 2008:

  • Cash and cash equivalents of approximately $240 million compared to approximately $210 million at December 31, 2007
  • Vacation ownership contract receivables, net, of $3.1 billion compared to $2.9 billion at December 31, 2007

OPERATING STATISTICS

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Lodging

Number of Rooms: Represents the number of rooms at lodging properties at
the end of the period which are either (i) under franchise and/or
management agreements, (ii) properties affiliated with Wyndham Hotels and
Resorts brand for which we receive a fee for reservation and/or other
services provided or (iii) properties managed under the CHI Limited joint
venture.

Average Occupancy Rate: Represents the percentage of available rooms
occupied during the period.

Average Daily Rate (ADR): Represents the average rate charged for renting
a lodging room for one day.

RevPAR: Represents revenue per available room and is calculated by
multiplying average occupancy rate by ADR. Comparable RevPAR represents
RevPAR of hotels which are included in both periods.

Royalty, Marketing and Reservation Revenues: Royalty, marketing and
reservation revenues are typically based on a percentage of the gross room
revenues of each hotel. Royalty revenue is generally a fee charged to each
franchised or managed hotel for the use of one of our trade names, while
marketing and reservation revenues are fees that we collect and are
contractually obligated to spend to support marketing and reservation
activities. Marketing and reservation fees are also included in Table 4
within Marketing, Reservation and Wyndham Rewards Revenues.

Vacation Exchange and Rentals

Average Number of Members: Represents members in our vacation exchange
programs who pay annual membership dues. For additional fees, such
participants are entitled to exchange intervals for intervals at other
properties affiliated with our vacation exchange business. In addition,
certain participants may exchange intervals for other leisure-related
products and services.

Annual Dues and Exchange Revenue Per Member: Represents total revenues
from annual membership dues and exchange fees generated for the period
divided by the average number of vacation exchange members during the
period.

Vacation Rental Transactions: Represents the gross number of transactions
that are generated in connection with customers booking their vacation
rental stays through us. In our European vacation rentals businesses, one
rental transaction is recorded each time a standard one-week rental is
booked; however, in the United States, one rental transaction is recorded
each time a vacation rental stay is booked, regardless of whether it is
less than or more than one week.

Average Net Price Per Vacation Rental: Represents the net rental price
generated from renting vacation properties to customers divided by the
number of rental transactions.

Vacation Ownership

Gross Vacation Ownership Interest Sales: Represents gross sales of
vacation ownership interests (including tele-sales upgrades, which are a
component of upgrade sales) before deferred sales and loan loss
provisions.

Tours: Represents the number of tours taken by guests in our efforts to
sell vacation ownership interests.

Volume per Guest (VPG): Represents revenue per guest and is calculated by
dividing the gross vacation ownership interest sales, excluding tele-sales
upgrades, which are a component of upgrade sales, by the number of tours.

General

Constant Currency: Represents comparison eliminating the effects of
foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods.

Note: Full year amounts may not foot across due to rounding.
(a) Information includes the acquisitions of Wyndham Hotels and Resorts
(October 2005) and Baymont Inn & Suites (April 2006) from their
acquisition dates forward. Therefore, the data is not presented on a
comparable basis.
(b) Numbers include affiliated hotels from the fourth quarter of 2006
forward.
(c) Marketing and reservation revenues represent fees we receive from
franchised and managed hotels that are to be expended for marketing
purposes or the operation of a centralized, brand-specific reservation
system. These fees are typically based on a percentage of the gross
room revenues of each hotel. Marketing and reservation fees are also
included in the above table within royalty, marketing and reservation
revenues. Wyndham Rewards revenues represent fees we receive relating
to our loyalty program.
(d) Primarily represents payroll costs in our hotel management business
that we incur and pay on behalf of property owners and for which we
are reimbursed by the property owners.
(e) Represents the revenue that is deferred under the percentage of
completion method of accounting. Under the percentage of completion
method of accounting, a portion of the total revenue from a vacation
ownership contract sale is not recognized if the construction of the
vacation resort has not yet been fully completed. This revenue will
be recognized in future periods in proportion to the costs incurred as
compared to the total expected costs for completion of construction of
the vacation resort. Positive amounts represent the recognition of
previously deferred revenues.
(f) Represents provision for estimated losses on vacation ownership
contract receivables originated during the period. Beginning January
1, 2006, the Company recorded such provision as a contra revenue to
vacation ownership interest sales on the Consolidated and Combined
Statements of Income, as required by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing
Transactions." Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company recorded such
provision, net of estimated inventory recoveries, as a separate
expense line item on the Combined Statements of Income and thus 2005
amounts are not comparable to 2006, 2007 and 2008 amounts.
