Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (NYSE: BXG) ("Bluegreen" or the
“Company") reported today its financial results for the quarter and
year ended December 31, 2020.
Fourth Quarter 2020
Highlights:
- Net income attributable to shareholders was $7.0 million in the
current year fourth quarter compared to $10.6 million in the prior
year quarter.

million in the prior year quarter.

Cabela’s stores, including 10 new Cabela’s locations;
- had reactivated the Choice Hotels call transfer program;
- had reopened all of its resorts (resort occupancy rates for the
fourth quarter of 2020 at resorts with sales centers was
approximately 71%, compared to 80% in the fourth quarter of
2019);
- and reopened all but two of its VOI sales centers.
- Average sales volume per guest (“VPG”) increased 8% in the
current year quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.
- The Company completed a private offering and sale of
approximately $131.0 million of VOI receivable-backed notes in

- Total revenue decreased to $521.1 million in 2020 from $740.2
million in 2019.
- System-wide sales of VOIs decreased to $367.0 million in 2020
from $619.1 million in 2019.
- Free cash flow increased to $70.8 million in 2020, an increase
of 54% from $46.1 million in 2019.
Alan B. Levan, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
of Bluegreen, commented, “We continue to be encouraged by the
results of our ongoing focus on safely reopening our resorts and
our sales and marketing operations after closing substantially all
of these operations in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19
pandemic. We are very pleased with the pace of the rebound in our
fourth quarter system-wide sales of VOIs, which at $112.2 million
increased 7.6% from our system-wide sales of $104.3 million in the
third quarter of 2020. In addition, our total revenue in the fourth
quarter increased 4.6% from the third quarter of 2020. We believe
that these were positive developments not only because they were
achieved despite the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, but
also because the fourth quarter typically is a seasonally lower
volume quarter than the third quarter. We believe that our
consistent strategy for the past 27 years of having a primarily
“drive-to” network of resorts has helped us achieve good levels of
occupancy despite the pandemic, achieving a 71% total occupancy
rate in the fourth-quarter 2020 at our resorts with sales centers,
compared to 80% during the same period last year. Further, the
Company posted its second quarter of consecutive profitability
post-pandemic, generating $19.8 million in consolidated adjusted
EBITDA attributable to shareholders and $7.0 million in net income
attributable to shareholders in the fourth quarter. While there
continues to be challenges ahead, these results are indicative of
what we hope to continue to deliver through the “Bluegreen Renewal”
initiative. Launched in fourth quarter of 2019, Bluegreen Renewal
is a Company-wide initiative with the goal of revitalizing our
sales and revenue growth and better managing our expenses. We
believe that these initiatives have helped us navigate the ongoing
COVID-19 pandemic and believe that this focus on growth and expense
management positions us to profitably grow in the future after the
impact of the pandemic subsides. However, it goes without saying
that this continues to be an unprecedented event in the United
States, and it is currently impossible to predict the duration or
severity of the pandemic or if and when the economy and our
business will return to pre-pandemic levels.”
Mr. Levan continued, “As discussed in more detail in a separate
press release, starting in the fourth quarter of 2019 and
throughout 2020, we have redesigned and enhanced our sales and
marketing infrastructure as part of the Bluegreen Renewal
initiative investing in refreshing the physical appearance of our
sales centers and marketing materials throughout the Company and
our strategy includes pursuing a regional focus with each region
led by senior vice presidents, each of whom have over 20 years of
timeshare sales and marketing experience. In addition, we relocated
our national sales leadership to Knoxville, TN, a central hub to
Bluegreen’s sales and marketing footprint, headed by
industry-veteran, Dusty Tonkin, as Bluegreen’s Executive Vice
President, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. Most importantly, we
believe this strategy has made Bluegreen more agile to take
advantage of opportunities for sales and marketing expansion in
each region as market conditions allow.”
Mr. Levan concluded, “We are also pleased to report the
continuing rebound in our vacation package sales despite the
COVID-19 pandemic. We sold over 43,000 vacation packages in the
fourth quarter, compared to approximately 55,000 in the fourth
quarter of 2019. We’ve recommenced our marketing operations at 98
Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s stores, including opening marketing
kiosks at 10 new Cabela’s stores, and anticipate operating
marketing kiosks in over 120 Bass Pro and Cabela’s store locations
by the end of 2021. The Bass Pro/Cabela’s vacation package program
now exceeds pre-pandemic volumes in the aggregate, and we look
forward to the growth in VOI sales that we hope will follow from
the growth in package sales. We also value our relationship with
Choice Hotels and the historically successful call-transfer program
with Choice. While this program continues to run at volumes
commensurate with lower travel due to COVID-19, we believe that
volumes of vacation packages sold through this program will return
to historical levels as travel recovers.”

System-wide sales of VOIs
System-wide sales of VOIs were $112.2 million during the three
months ended December 31, 2020. As discussed above, all of the
Company’s VOI sales centers were temporarily closed on March 23,
2020. By the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company reopened all but
two of its VOI sales centers and one of those two VOI sales centers
was consolidated into another sales center due to local occupancy
restrictions. System-wide sales of VOIs depend on the number of
guests who attend a timeshare sale presentation, with each such
guest counted as a “tour” that the Company can potentially convert
into a sale of a VOI. The number of guest tours is driven by the
number of existing owner guests the Company has staying at a resort
with a sales center and the number of new guest arrivals that agree
to attend a sales presentation. As a result of the COVID-19
pandemic, the number of guests and owners willing to travel
decreased significantly, which lowered the number of completed
tours. As a result, the sales mix for the fourth quarter of 2020
was heavily weighted toward sales to existing owners at 63% of
system-wide sales of VOIs.
Fee-based sales commission
revenue
Fee-based sales commission revenue was $25.3 million,
approximately 65% of third-party VOI sales during the current
fourth year quarter. Third-party VOI sales were 35% of system-wide
sales during the quarter, which was lower than is typical.
Third-party VOI sales which are more often made at sales centers
selling to new prospects were more significantly impacted by the
COVID-19 pandemic.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses were 55% of system-wide sales of
VOIs during the current year fourth quarter as compared to 53%
during the prior year quarter. As of December 31, 2020, the Company
had recommenced marketing operations at 88 Bass Pro and Cabela’s
locations and marketing operations commenced at 10 additional
Cabela’s stores, for a total of 98 Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s
stores. These stores sell vacation packages to drive marketing
guests to sales offices in the future. In addition, the Company
restarted its call transfer marketing program with Choice Hotels,
although the volume of packages sold through continue to be
adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
During the fourth quarter of 2020 we sold 43,632 vacation
packages, compared to 54,898 vacation packages sold in the fourth
quarter of 2019. This decrease reflects lower vacation package
sales through the Choice program and other programs that were
reduced or terminated, partially offset by an increase of 7% in
vacation package sales through the Bass Pro and Cabela’s channel.
The active pipeline of frontline vacation packages decreased to
121,915 at December 31, 2020 from 134,619 at September 30, 2020 and
169,294 at December 31, 2019, based on new vacation package sales
during the quarter and net of vacation packages used or expired.
Historically, approximately 42% of vacation packages resulted in a
timeshare tour at one of Company’s resorts with a sales center
within twelve months of purchase. In addition to the active
pipeline discussed above, the Company also has a pipeline of
vacation packages from customers who have already toured but
purchased an additional vacation package and over 100,000 vacation
packages that were purchased over 12 months prior to December 31,
2020. The Company has several programs in place to attempt to
reactivate those vacation packages to promote future travel and in
turn potential future VOI sales.
As recently announced, Bluegreen returned as the entitlement
sponsor for The Bluegreen Vacations Duel At DAYTONA, a pair of
150-mile qualifying races for the DAYTONA 500 at Daytona
International Speedway. Bluegreen believes that this sponsorship
and other aspects of its relationship with NASCAR provide
Bluegreen’s owners with experiences at NASCAR races that will be a
driver of additional upgrade sales as well as to provide the
Company an opportunity to introduce its resorts and destinations to
NASCAR fans.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses varies based on the amount of
financed, non fee-based sales during the period and changes in our
estimates of future notes receivable performance for existing and
newly originated loans. The provision for loan losses as a
percentage of gross sales of VOIs was 18% during the fourth quarter
of 2020 compared to 19% during the 2019 quarter. The provision for
new loans generated during the fourth quarter of 2020 was 24%,
which was consistent with the prior year quarter.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material adverse impact on
unemployment in the United States and economic conditions in
general and the impact may continue for some time. The Company
believes that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have an impact
on the collectability of its VOI notes receivable. Accordingly, the
Company increased its estimate of defaults for the 2021 year based
on its historical experience, forbearance requests received from
its customers, and other factors, including, but not limited to,
the seasoning of the notes receivable and FICO scores of the
customers; however there is no assurance that the allowance for
loan losses will prove to be adequate.
The Company continues to monitor and address the activity of
so-called third-party timeshare exit firms and aggressively pursue
its previously announced “zero tolerance strategy” in an effort to
protect Bluegreen’s timeshare owners against the unscrupulous
actions of these firms. Some of these firms have increased their
activities during the COVID-19 pandemic and the Company will
continue to consider appropriate courses of action regarding this
industry-wide issue. As previously announced, Bluegreen and the
bankruptcy trustee for American Resort Management Group (“ARMG”),
one of the so-called timeshare exit firms, ultimately entered into
a court-approved settlement in connection with Bluegreen’s suit
against ARMG which allowed 100% of Bluegreen’s claims against ARMG
in an amount in excess of one million dollars. Bluegreen and the
Trustee consider this matter a victory for the timeshare owners. In
this regard, Bluegreen has agreed to work with the timeshare owners
defrauded by ARMG to take back or process transfers of their
timeshare interests. Bluegreen has also agreed to subordinate its
claims against ARMG to the claims against ARMG by the timeshare
owners, who have sought refunds of the fees paid to ARMG.
Net Carrying Cost of Inventory
Net carrying cost of inventory increased $2.3 million or 45% in
the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019,
primarily due to decreased rentals of developer inventory,
decreased sampler stays due to decreased travel associated with the
COVID-19 pandemic and increased maintenance fees and developer
subsidies associated with our increase in VOI inventory as a result
of reduced sales during the period.
General and Administrative
Expense
General and Administrative Expense related to the Company’s
sales and marketing operations decreased $1.5 million or 15% as
compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to steps
taken by the Company to mitigate costs during this period of
reduced sales.
Financing Revenue, net of Financing
Expense
Interest income on VOI notes receivable decreased 3.7% to $19.3
million in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth
quarter of 2019, primarily reflecting lower notes receivable
balances as a result of lower VOI sales due to the COVID-19
pandemic. Interest expense on receivable-backed notes payable
decreased 17.7% to $4.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020
compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower
outstanding receivable-backed debt balances and a lower
weighted-average cost of borrowings due to lower market interest
rates.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, resort operations and management
club revenue increased by $1.7 million, or 4%, to $43.7 million
from $42.0 million in the prior year quarter, due to an increase in
cost reimbursement revenue while not impacting segment adjusted
EBITDA. Net of cost reimbursement revenue, resort operations and
club management revenues decreased 4% as a result of decreases in
revenues from our Traveler Plus program, other owner programs,
resort retail operations and third-party rental commissions
largely, Bluegreen believes, as a result of lower activity due to
the COVID-19 pandemic. However, segment adjusted EBITDA increased
7% to $16.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from $14.9
million in the comparable prior year period, driven primarily by
lower costs incurred during the fourth quarter of 2020 costs due to
steps taken to reduce costs in the first quarter of 2020 and lower
Traveler Plus program costs, costs of other owner programs and
costs of resort retail operations.
Corporate and Other
Adjusted EBITDA related to Corporate and Other decreased 7% to
$(18.7) million in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to $(20.2)
million in the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to steps taken
in the first quarter of 2020 to reduce costs.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of December 31, 2020, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents
totaled $203.7 million. Excluding receivable-backed notes payable,
the Company’s net debt-to-EBITDA ratio as of December 31, 2020 was
0.16.
Subject to eligible collateral and the terms of the facilities,
the Company had approximately $292.0 million of availability under
its receivable-backed purchase and credit facilities, and corporate
credit line as of December 31, 2020. During 2020, the Company
repaid the $60.0 million previously drawn down in March 2020 under
its line-of credit as a precautionary measure to provide the
Company liquidity due to COVID-19. Further, in October 2020, the
Company completed a private offering and sale of approximately
$131.0 million of VOI receivable-backed Notes (the "2020-A Term
Securitization"). As a result of the 2020-A Term Securitization,
availability under the Company’s receivable-backed purchase and
credit facilities and corporate credit line increased $82.1 million
as of October 8, 2020, subject to eligible collateral and the terms
of the facilities, as applicable.
Free cash flow, which the Company defines as cash flow from
operating activities less capital expenditures, was $70.8 million
for 2020, compared to $46.1 million for 2019. The increase in free
cash flow was primarily due to a decrease in the settlement
payments made to Bass Pro pursuant to the agreement entered into in
June 2019. The Company paid Bass Pro a $20.0 million initial
settlement payment in June 2019, as compared to a $4.0 million
settlement installment payment made to Bass Pro in January 2020. In
addition, income tax payments decreased $23.1 million, spending on
the acquisition and development of inventory decreased $22.5
million and the purchase of property and equipment decreased $16.8
million during 2020 as compared to 2019. These increases in free
cash flow were partially offset by lower cash sales and down
payments from customers associated with the closure of VOI sales
centers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
The Company refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures in
this press release, including system-wide sales of VOIs, adjusted
EBITDA attributable to shareholders and free cash flow. Please see
the supplemental tables and definitions attached herein for
additional information and reconciliation of such non-GAAP
financial measures.

with the Bluegreen Renewal initiative, including that the
initiative and expenses associated therewith, including with
respect to sales centers and marketing activities, may not result
in increased sales or revenues or otherwise in the benefits
anticipated; the risk that the improvement in operating results in
the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2020
may not be maintained or continue; the risk that vacation package
sales may not convert to tours and/or VOI sales at anticipated or

BLUEGREEN VACATIONS CORPORATION
DEFINITIONS
Principal Components Affecting our Results of
Operations
Principal Components of Revenues
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 maintenance fee
defaults. This inventory is generally purchased at a greater
discount to retail price compared to developed VOI sales and VOIs
purchased by us for sale as part of our JIT sales activities.
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. We
also earn fees from providing mortgage servicing to certain
third-party developers relating to VOIs sold by them.
Resort Operations and Club Management Revenue. Represents
recurring fees from managing the Vacation Club and transaction fees
for Traveler Plus and other member services. 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 is typically favorably impacted in
periods where a significant amount of secondary market VOI
inventory is acquired and 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 is no assurance that such inventory will be
available.
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 through utilizing them 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, among 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
uncollectible VOI notes receivable. In addition to the factors
impacting system-wide sales of VOIs (as described below), 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 guest tours by number of VOI sales transactions.
Average Sales Volume Per Guest (“VPG”). Represents the sales
attributable to tours 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.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to
Shareholders. We define EBITDA as earnings, or net income, 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 and depreciation and amortization. We define
Adjusted EBITDA as our EBITDA, adjusted to exclude amounts of loss
(gain) on assets held for sale, and other items that we believe are
not representative of ongoing operating results. Accordingly, we
exclude certain items such as severance charges net of employee
retention tax credits, incremental costs associated with the
COVID-19 pandemic, and amounts accrued or incurred in connection
with the Bass Pro settlement in June 2019. We define Adjusted
EBITDA Attributable to Shareholders as our Adjusted EBITDA
excluding amounts attributable to the non-controlling interest in
Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations (in which we own a 51% interest). For
purposes of the EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Attributable to Shareholders calculations for each period
presented, 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 ordinary operations of our
business.
We consider our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA
Attributable to Shareholders and Segment Adjusted EBITDA to be
indicators of our operating performance, and they are used by us to
measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and
expand our business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by
companies, lenders, investors and others because they exclude
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. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA Attributable to Shareholders also exclude 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.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to
Shareholders are not recognized terms 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 EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to
Shareholders as an analytical tool include, without limitation,
that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to
Shareholders do 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 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to Shareholders do not
reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. In addition,
our definition of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA Attributable
to Shareholders may not be comparable to definitions of Adjusted
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to Shareholders or other
similarly titled measures used by other companies.
