NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Company Overview

        Interval Leisure Group, Inc., or ILG, is a leading global provider of membership and leisure services to the vacation industry. ILG consists of two operating segments. Membership and Exchange offers leisure and travel-related products and services to owners of vacation interests and others primarily through various membership programs, as well as related services to resort developer clients. Management and Rental provides hotel, condominium resort, timeshare resort and homeowners association management, and rental services to both vacation property owners and vacationers.

        On February 28, 2012, we acquired all of the equity of Vacation Resorts International, or VRI, a non-developer provider of resort and homeowners association management services to the shared ownership industry. VRI was consolidated into our financial statements as of the acquisition date with its assets and results of operations primarily included in our Management and Rental operating segment.

        The Membership and Exchange operating segment consists of Interval International Inc.'s businesses, referred to as Interval, and the membership and exchange related line of business of Trading Places International, or TPI, and VRI. The Management and Rental operating segment consists of Aston Hotels & Resorts, LLC and Maui Condo and Home, LLC, referred to as Aston, and the management and rental related line of business of VRI and TPI.

Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of ILG's management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Seasonality

        Revenue at ILG is influenced by the seasonal nature of travel. The Membership and Exchange businesses recognize exchange and Getaway revenue based on confirmation of the vacation, with the first quarter generally experiencing higher revenue and the fourth quarter generally experiencing lower revenue. The Management and Rental businesses recognize rental revenue based on occupancy, with the first and third quarters generally generating higher revenue and the second and fourth quarters generally generating lower revenue. The timeshare and homeowners' association management part of this business does not experience significant seasonality.

NOTE 2—SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        Our significant accounting policies were described in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in our significant accounting policies for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Accounting Estimates

        ILG's management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. They also impact the reported amount of net earnings during any period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

        Significant estimates underlying the accompanying consolidated financial statements include: the recovery of long-lived assets as well as goodwill and other intangible assets; purchase price allocations of business combinations; the determination of deferred income taxes including related valuation allowances; the determination of deferred revenue and membership costs; and the determination of stock-based compensation. In the opinion of ILG's management, the assumptions underlying the historical consolidated financial statements of ILG and its subsidiaries are reasonable.

Earnings per Share

        Basic earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Treasury stock is excluded from the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities are common stock equivalents that are freely exercisable into common stock at less than market prices or otherwise dilute earnings if converted. The net effect of common stock equivalents is based on the incremental common stock that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of common stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs") using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents are not included in diluted earnings per share when their inclusion is antidilutive. The computations of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders do not include approximately 0.8 million stock options and RSUs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and 0.9 million and 1.0 million stock options and RSUs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would have been antidilutive to earnings per share.

        In connection with the spin-off, stock options to purchase ILG common stock were granted to non-ILG employees for which there is no future compensation expense to be recognized by ILG. As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, 0.9 million of stock options remained outstanding.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        With the exception of those discussed below, there are no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements since the recent accounting pronouncements described in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K that are of significance, or potential significance, to ILG based on our current operations. The following summary of recent accounting pronouncements is not intended to be an exhaustive description of the respective pronouncement.

        In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-10, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate, ("OIS")) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)" ("ASU 2013-10)"). ASU 2013-10 ratified the Task Force's consensus to allow the Fed Funds effective swap rate to serve as a benchmark interest rate in the United States, which was previously defined in ASC 815 as either (1) a rate on direct obligations of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (UST) or (2) the LIBOR swap rate. ASU 2013-10 does not add to the disclosure requirements in ASC 815-10-50; however, in order to comply with the required disclosures related to fair value in ASC 820 a separate process for determining the fair value hierarchy of derivatives when the OIS rate is an input may be required. The ASU is required to be applied prospectively for qualifying new or re-designated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. We do not currently anticipate the adoption of this guidance, as of the effective date, will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures; however, we will continue to assess through the effective date the future impact, if any, of this new accounting update to our consolidated financial statements.

        In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment ("CTA") upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)" ("ASU 2013-05"). ASU 2013-05 applies to the release of the CTA into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a

ASU 2013-04 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this ASU is fixed at the reporting date. The ASU requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangements among its co-obligors as well as any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. ASU 2013-04 also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of those obligations. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 (and interim periods within those years), and shall be applied retrospectively, with early adoption permitted.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

        In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2013-02"). ASU 2013-02 adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss ("AOCI"), including (1) disaggregating and separately presenting changes in AOCI balances by component and (2) presenting significant items reclassified out of AOCI either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or as a separate disclosure in the notes to the financial statements. It does not amend any existing requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in the financial statements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012 (and interim periods within those years), and shall be applied prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures.

        In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU 2013-01"). ASU 2013-01 clarifies the offsetting disclosure requirements in ASU 2011-11, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU 2011-11").

The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those years. Retrospective application is required for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2013-01 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures.

        In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, "Technical Corrections and Improvements" ("ASU 2012-04"). ASU 2012-04 makes certain technical corrections, clarifications and conforming fair value amendments to the FASB Accounting Standard Codification (the "Codification") that affects various Codification topics. The amendments in this ASU are effective upon issuance, except for amendments that are subject to transition guidance, which became effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures.

        In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11 that creates new disclosure requirements about the nature of an entity's rights of setoff and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. The ASU is designed to make financial statements that are prepared under GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods therein, with retrospective application required. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures.

NOTE 3—GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

        Pursuant to FASB guidance as codified within ASC 350, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other," goodwill acquired in business combinations is assigned to the reporting unit(s) expected to benefit from the combination as of the acquisition date. ILG determined our Membership and Exchange and Management and Rental operating segments are individual reporting units which are also individual reportable segments of ILG pursuant to ASC 280, Segment Reporting ("ASC 280"). ILG tests goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of October 1, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment based on either a qualitative assessment or a two-step impairment test, as more fully described in Note 2 of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. When performing the two-step impairment test, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded.

        As of October 1, 2012, we reviewed the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets of each of our two reporting units. Goodwill assigned to the Membership and Exchange and Management and Rental reporting units as of that date was $483.5 million and $22.3 million, respectively. We performed a qualitative assessment on both our reporting units and concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value exceeded its carrying value and, therefore, a two-step impairment test was not necessary. As of September 30, 2013, we did not identify any triggering events

NOTE 5—LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

Credit Facility

        On June 21, 2012, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement") which, among other things (1) provides for a $500 million revolving credit facility, (2) extends the maturity of the credit facility to June 21, 2017, (3) provides for an interest rate on borrowings, commitment fees and letter of credit fees based on our consolidated leverage ratio, and (4) may be increased to up to $700 million, subject to certain conditions. As of September 30, 2013, there was $190 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility. Any principal amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are due at maturity. The interest rate on the Amended Credit Agreement is based on (at our election) either LIBOR plus a predetermined margin that ranges from 1.25% to 2.25%, or the Base Rate as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement plus a predetermined margin that ranges from 0.25% to 1.25%, in each case based on our consolidated leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2013, the applicable margin was 1.50% per annum for LIBOR revolving loans and 0.50% per annum for Base Rate loans. The revolving credit facility has a commitment fee on undrawn amounts that ranges from 0.25% to 0.375% per annum based on our consolidated leverage ratio and as of September 30, 2013, the commitment fee was 0.275%.

        Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, all obligations under the revolving credit facility are unconditionally guaranteed by ILG and certain of its subsidiaries. Borrowings are further secured by (1) 100% of the voting equity securities of ILG's U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the equity in our first-tier foreign subsidiaries and (2) substantially all of our domestic tangible and intangible property.

Restrictions and Covenants

        The Amended Credit Agreement has various financial and operating covenants that place significant restrictions on us, including our ability to incur additional indebtedness, incur additional liens, issue redeemable stock and preferred stock, pay dividends or distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock, prepay, redeem or repurchase debt, make loans and investments, enter into agreements that restrict distributions from our subsidiaries, sell assets and capital stock of our subsidiaries, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and consolidate or merge with or into or sell substantially all of our assets to another person.

        The Amended Credit Agreement requires us to meet certain financial covenants regarding the maintenance of a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of consolidated debt, less credit given for a portion of foreign cash, over consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, of 3.50 through December 31, 2013 and 3.25 thereafter. Additionally, we are required to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA over consolidated interest expense, as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, of 3.0. As of September 30, 2013, ILG was in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of all applicable financial and operating covenants and our consolidated leverage ratio and consolidated interest coverage ratio under the Amended Credit Agreement were 1.00 and 33.30, respectively.

Debt Issuance Costs

        In connection with entering into the Amended Credit Agreement, we incurred $3.9 million of lender and third-party debt issuance costs. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, total unamortized debt issuance costs on outstanding debt were $2.9 million, net of $0.6 million of accumulated amortization, and $3.5 million, net of $0.4 million of accumulated amortization, respectively, which were included in "Other non-current assets" in our consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs are amortized to "Interest expense" on a straight-line basis for our Amended Credit Agreement.

NOTE 6—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

        In accordance with ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement," ("ASC 820") the fair value of an asset is considered to be the price at which the asset could be sold in an orderly transaction between unrelated knowledgeable and willing parties. A liability's fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices in active markets

Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable

Level 3—Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the company to develop its own assumptions

        As part of an acquisition in November 2010, we are obligated to pay contingent consideration in an amount ranging from zero up to a total of $5.0 million to the former owners during the three year period subsequent to the acquisition should the company meet certain earnings targets. In our determination of the fair value of this contingent consideration, we utilize a probability-weighted income approach, which includes certain significant inputs not observable in the market, such as a discount rate of 18.5% as well as actual and estimated probability-weighted cash flows pertaining to the periods subject to the contingent consideration. We believe these inputs represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

        As of September 30, 2013, the fair value of the remaining contingent consideration was $1.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million from December 31, 2012, of which $0.5 million is due to revisions to the estimated earnings used in our calculation of the fair value of the contingent consideration and $0.2 million is due to the accretion of interest. The revision to estimated earnings and the accretion of interest have been reflected in "General and administrative expense" and "Interest expense", respectively, in our consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The total contingent consideration of $1.9 million is included in "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" in our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2013.

NOTE 6—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

        As a measure of sensitivity, a downward and upward change of 10% to all of the aforementioned Level 3 inputs would have resulted in a change ranging from zero to $0.1 million (favorable) to the estimated contingent consideration liability as of September 30, 2013. There have been no transfers of inputs used in measuring fair value between the three tiers within the fair value hierarchy since December 31, 2012.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

        The estimated fair value of financial instruments below has been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies, as applicable. There have been no changes in the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

        The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value as they are redeemable at par upon notice or maintained with various high-quality financial institutions and have original maturities of three months or less. Under the fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1). As of December 31, 2012, the financing receivable was presented in our consolidated balance sheets within "Other non-current assets" and pertained to a secured real estate related loan issued to a third party in 2012 with an original maturity in 2015. During the first quarter 2013, the loan was repaid in full at 100% of the original principal amount plus accrued interest. The carrying value at December 31, 2012 of this financing receivable approximated fair value through inputs inherent to the originating value of the loan, such as interest rates and ongoing credit risk accounted for through non-recurring adjustments for estimated credit losses as necessary (Level 2). The stated interest rate on this loan was comparable to market rate. Interest was recognized within our "Interest income" line item in our consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

        The carrying value of the outstanding balance under our $500 million revolving credit facility approximates fair value as of September 30, 2013 through inputs inherent to the debt such as variable interest rates and credit risk (Level 2).

        ILG has 300 million authorized shares of common stock, par value of $.01 per share. At September 30, 2013, there were 59.1 million shares of ILG common stock issued, of which 57.4 million are outstanding with 1.7 million shares held as treasury stock. At December 31, 2012, there were 58.6 million shares of ILG common stock issued, of which 56.9 million were outstanding with 1.7 million shares held as treasury stock.

        ILG has 25 million authorized shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, none of which are issued or outstanding as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The Board of Directors has the authority to issue the preferred stock in one or more series and to establish the rights, preferences, and dividends.

Dividends Declared

        In May and August 2013, our Board of Directors declared quarterly dividend payments of $0.11 per share paid in June and September 2013, respectively, of $6.3 million each.

        In November 2013, our Board of Directors declared a $0.11 per share dividend payable December 18, 2013 to shareholders of record on December 4, 2013.

Stockholder Rights Plan

        In June 2009, ILG's Board of Directors approved the creation of a Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, adopted a stockholders rights plan and declared a dividend of one right for each outstanding share of common stock held by our stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 22, 2009. The rights attach to any additional shares of common stock issued after June 22, 2009. These rights, which trade with the shares of our common stock, currently are not exercisable. Under the rights plan, these rights will be exercisable if a person or group acquires or commences a tender or exchange offer for 15% or more of our common stock. The rights plan provides certain exceptions for acquisitions by Liberty Interactive Corporation (formerly known as Liberty Media Corporation) in accordance with an agreement entered into with ILG in connection with its spin-off from IAC/InterActiveCorp (IAC). If the rights become exercisable, each right will permit its holder, other than the "acquiring person," to purchase from us shares of common stock at a 50% discount to the then prevailing market price. As a result, the rights will cause substantial dilution to a person or group that becomes an "acquiring person" on terms not approved by our Board of Directors.

Share Repurchase Program

        Effective August 3, 2011, ILG's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $25.0 million, excluding commissions, of our outstanding common stock. Acquired shares of our common stock are held as treasury shares carried at cost on our consolidated financial statements. Common stock repurchases may be conducted in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of all repurchase transactions are contingent upon market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. This program may be modified, suspended or terminated by us at any time without notice.

        There were no repurchases of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2012 and the nine months ended September 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, the remaining availability for future repurchases of our common stock was $4.1 million.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

        Pursuant to final guidance issued by the FASB in February of 2013, entities are required to disclose additional information about reclassification adjustments within accumulated other comprehensive income/loss, referred to as AOCL for ILG, including (1) changes in AOCL balances by component and (2) significant items reclassified out of AOCL in the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, there were no significant items reclassified out of AOCL, and the change in AOCL pertains to current period foreign currency translation adjustments as disclosed in our accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

NOTE 8—BENEFIT PLANS

        Under a retirement savings plan sponsored by ILG, qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, participating employees may contribute up to 50.0% of their pre-tax earnings, but not more than statutory limits. ILG provides a discretionary match under the ILG plan of fifty cents for each dollar a participant contributed into the plan with a maximum contribution of 3% of a participant's eligible earnings, subject to Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") restrictions. Matching contributions for the ILG plan were approximately $0.4 million and $1.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and approximately $0.4 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Matching contributions were invested in the same manner as each participant's voluntary contributions in the investment options provided under the plan.

        Effective August 20, 2008, a deferred compensation plan (the "Director Plan") was established to provide non-employee directors of ILG an option to defer director fees on a tax-deferred basis. Participants in the Director Plan are allowed to defer a portion or all of their compensation and are 100% vested in their respective deferrals and earnings. With respect to director fees earned for services performed after the date of such election, participants may choose from receiving cash or stock at the end of the deferral period. ILG has reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to this plan, of which 41,180 share units were outstanding at September 30, 2013. ILG does not provide

matching or discretionary contributions to participants in the Director Plan. Any deferred compensation elected to be received in stock is included in diluted earnings per share.

NOTE 9—STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

        On May 21, 2013, ILG adopted the Interval Leisure Group, Inc. 2013 Stock and Incentive Plan to replace the ILG 2008 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan. Both plans provide for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards. RSUs are awards in the form of phantom shares or units, denominated in a hypothetical equivalent number of shares of ILG common stock and with the value of each award equal to the fair value of ILG common stock at the date of grant. Each RSU is subject to service-based vesting, where a specific period of continued employment must pass before an award vests. We grant awards subject to graded vesting (i.e. portions of the award vest at different times during the vesting period) or to cliff vesting (i.e., all awards vest at the end of the vesting period). In addition, certain RSUs are subject to attaining specific performance criteria.

        ILG recognizes non-cash compensation expense for all RSUs held by ILG's employees. For RSUs to be settled in stock, the accounting charge is measured at the grant date as the fair value of ILG common stock and expensed as non-cash compensation over the vesting term using the straight-line basis for service awards and the accelerated basis for performance-based awards with graded vesting. Certain cliff vesting awards contain performance criteria which are tied to anticipated future results of operations in determining the fair value of the award, while other cliff vesting awards with performance criteria are tied to the achievement of certain market conditions. This value is recognized as expense over the service period, net of estimated forfeitures, using the straight-line recognition method. The expense associated with RSU awards to be settled in cash is initially measured at fair value at the grant date and expensed ratably over the vesting term, recording a liability subject to mark-to-market adjustments for changes in the price of the respective common stock, as compensation expense.

        Shares underlying RSUs are not issued or outstanding until vested. In relation to our quarterly dividend, unvested RSUs are credited with dividend equivalents, in the form of additional RSUs, when dividends are paid on our shares of common stock. Such additional RSUs are forfeitable and will have the same vesting dates and will vest under the same terms as the RSUs in respect of which such additional RSUs are credited. Given such dividend equivalents are forfeitable, we do not consider them to be participating securities and, consequently, they are not subject to the two-class method of determining earnings per share.

        Under the ILG 2013 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan, the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance as of adoption is 4.1 million shares, less one share for every share granted under any prior plan after December 31, 2012. As of September 30, 2013, ILG has 3.3 million shares available for future issuance under the 2013 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan.

        During the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, the Compensation Committee granted approximately 657,000 and 586,000 RSUs, respectively, vesting over three to four years, to certain officers and employees of ILG and its subsidiaries. Of these RSUs granted in 2013 and 2012, approximately 300,000 and 130,000 cliff vest in three years and approximately 58,000 and 73,000 of these RSUs, respectively,

are subject to performance criteria that could result between 0% and 200% of these awards being earned either based on defined EBITDA or relative total shareholder return targets over the respective performance period, as specified in the award document.

        For the 2013 and 2012 RSUs subject to relative total shareholder return performance criteria, the number of RSUs that may ultimately be awarded depends on whether the market condition is achieved. We used a Monte Carlo simulation analysis to estimate a $29.61 for 2013 and $17.34 for 2012 per unit grant date fair value for these performance based RSUs. This analysis estimates the total shareholder return ranking of ILG as of the grant date relative to two peer groups approved by the Compensation Committee, over the remaining performance period. The expected volatility of ILG's common stock at the date of grant was estimated based on a historical average volatility rate for the approximate three-year performance period. The dividend yield assumption was based on historical and anticipated dividend payouts. The risk-free interest rate assumption was based on observed interest rates consistent with the approximate three-year performance measurement period.

        Non-cash compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $2.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, non-cash compensation expense related to RSUs was $7.8 million and $8.7 million, respectively. At September 30, 2013, there was approximately $17.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to RSUs, which is currently expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.9 years.

        The amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of income is reduced by estimated forfeitures, as the amount recorded is based on awards ultimately expected to vest. The forfeiture rate is estimated at the grant date based on historical experience and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods for any changes to the estimated forfeiture rate from that previously estimated. For any vesting tranche of an award, the cumulative amount of compensation cost recognized is at least equal to the portion of the grant-date value of the award tranche that is actually vested at that date.

        Non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to equity awards is included in the following line items in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):

        In connection with the acquisition of Aston by ILG in 2007, a member of Aston's management purchased a noncontrolling interest in Aston and, additionally, was granted non-voting restricted common equity. This award was granted on May 31, 2007 and was initially measured at fair value, which was amortized over the vesting period. This award vests ratably over four and a half years, or earlier based upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events. These shares are subject to a put right by the holder and a call right by ILG, which became exercisable for the first time in the first quarter of 2013 for a period of 60 days subsequent to the filing of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and is exercisable annually thereafter.

        The value of these shares upon exercise of the put or call is equal to their fair market value, determined by negotiation or arbitration, reduced by the accreted value of the preferred interest that was taken by ILG upon the purchase of Aston. The initial value of the preferred interest was equal to the acquisition price of Aston. The preferred interest accretes at a 10% annual rate. Upon exercise of the put or call, the consideration payable can be denominated in ILG shares, cash or a combination thereof at ILG's option. An additional put right by the holder and call right by ILG would require, upon exercise, the purchase of these non-voting common shares by ILG immediately prior to a registered public offering by Aston, at the public offering price. As of September 30, 2013, the estimated redemption value of this redeemable interest is lower than the current carrying value on our consolidated balance sheet. Consequently, pursuant to the applicable accounting guidance, no adjustment to the balance of this noncontrolling interest was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

NOTE 10—INCOME TAXES

        ILG calculates its interim income tax provision in accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes." At the end of each interim period, ILG makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of a change in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, or judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

NOTE 10—INCOME TAXES (Continued)

        The computation of the annual expected effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income (or loss) earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or ILG's tax environment changes. To the extent that the estimated annual effective tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in tax expense for the current quarter.

        A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided when it is more likely than not that certain deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income or the reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We consider the history of taxable income in recent years, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies to make this assessment.

        For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, ILG recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $13.0 million and $41.6 million, respectively, which represents effective tax rates of 43.1% and 39.9% for the respective periods. These tax rates are higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to state and local income taxes partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the effective tax rate increased due to income taxes associated with the effect of changes in tax laws in certain states and other income tax items, the most significant of which related to the effect of changes in tax laws in the U.K, as discussed further below, that were enacted during the third quarter of 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the effective tax rate increased due to the shift in the projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed between the various jurisdictions and the effect of changes in tax laws in certain states and in the U.K. that were enacted during the third quarter of 2013. However, this increase was partially offset by the U.S. tax consequences of foreign operations and the decrease during the first quarter of 2013 in unrecognized tax benefits associated with the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes.

        For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, ILG recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $0.6 million and $14.9 million, respectively, which represents effective tax rates of 80.5% and 37.0% for the respective periods. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily attributable to reduced income before income taxes, driven by the loss on the extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of the Interval Senior Notes, which magnified the impact of other income tax items, the most significant of which related to the effect of changes in tax laws in the U.K., as discussed further below, that were enacted during the third quarter of 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the tax rate was higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to state and local income taxes partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the effective tax rate decreased due to other income tax items, the most significant of which related to the tax impact of ILG's redemption of the Interval Senior Notes offset by the effect of changes in tax laws in the U.K., that were enacted during the third quarter of 2012.

NOTE 10—INCOME TAXES (Continued)

        As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, ILG had unrecognized tax benefits of $1.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of which $1.2 million and $0.7 million, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate. There were no material increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for the three months ended September 30, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the unrecognized tax benefits increased by a net amount of approximately $1.0 million, primarily attributable to an increase recorded during the first quarter of 2013 of approximately $1.1 million related to state income tax items offset by approximately $0.2 million recorded during the first quarter of 2013 related to the decrease in unrecognized tax benefits as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes. The increase of $1.1 million for state income tax items did not have an overall impact on the effective tax rate as it is entirely offset by a related state refund claim filed during the first quarter of 2013.

        ILG recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. There were no material accruals for interest for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, interest and penalties decreased by approximately $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2013 as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes. As of September 30, 2013, ILG had accrued $0.4 million for interest and penalties.

        ILG believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $1.3 million within twelve months of the current reporting date due primarily to binding technical advice expected to be issued by state taxing authorities on state income tax items and the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes. An estimate of other changes in unrecognized tax benefits cannot be made, but is not expected to be significant.

        ILG has routinely been under audit by federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. Income taxes payable include amounts considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year returns; however, the amount paid upon resolution of issues raised may differ from the amount provided. Differences between the reserves for tax contingencies and the amounts owed by ILG are recorded in the period they become known. Under the Tax Sharing Agreement, IAC indemnifies ILG for all consolidated tax liabilities and related interest and penalties for the pre-spin period.

        The IRS has completed its review of IAC's consolidated tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2001 through 2009, which includes our operations from September 24, 2002, our date of acquisition by IAC, until the spin-off in August 2008. On August 28, 2013, the Joint Committee of Taxation completed its review and approved the audit settlement. Various IAC consolidated tax returns that include our operations, filed with state and local jurisdictions, are currently under examination, the most significant of which are California, New York and New York City for various tax years beginning with 2006. No other open tax years are currently under examination by the IRS or any state and local jurisdictions.

NOTE 10—INCOME TAXES (Continued)

        During 2012, the U.K. Finance Act of 2012 was enacted, which further reduced the U.K. corporate income tax rate to 24%, effective April 1, 2012 and 23%, effective April 1, 2013. The impact of the U.K. rate reduction to 24% and 23%, which reduced our U.K. net deferred tax asset and increased income tax expense, was reflected in the reporting period when the law was enacted. During the third quarter of 2013, the U.K. Finance Act of 2013 was enacted which further reduced the U.K. corporate income tax rate to 21%, effective April 1, 2014 and 20%, effective April 1, 2015. The impact of the U.K. rate reduction to 21% and 20% has been reflected in the current reporting period. It reduced our U.K. net deferred tax asset and increased income tax expense by approximately $0.6 million. The change in the corporate tax rate initially negatively impacts income tax expense as the future benefit expected to be realized from our U.K. net deferred tax assets decreases; however, going forward, the lower corporate tax rate will decrease income tax expense and favorably impact our effective tax rate.

        Subsequent to September 30, 2013, we received the expected favorable binding technical advice issued by a state taxing authority on state income tax items. This advice will allow us to decrease our unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, and additionally will lower state income taxes and favorably impact our effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2013 and going forward.

NOTE 11—SEGMENT INFORMATION

Segment Information

        Pursuant to FASB guidance as codified in ASC 280, an operating segment is a component of a public entity (1) that engages in business activities that may earn revenues and incur expenses; (2) for which operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess its performance; and (3) for which discrete financial information is available. We also considered how the businesses are organized as to segment management, and the focus of the businesses with regards to the types of products or services offered. ILG consists of two operating segments which are also reportable segments. Membership and Exchange offers leisure and travel-related products and services to owners of vacation interests and others mostly through various membership programs, as well as related services to resort developer clients. Management and Rental provides hotel, condominium resort, timeshare resort and homeowners association management, and vacation rental services to both vacation property owners and vacationers.

NOTE 12—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

        In the ordinary course of business, ILG is a party to various legal proceedings. ILG establishes reserves for specific legal matters when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable. ILG does not establish reserves for identified legal matters when ILG believes that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is not probable. Although management currently believes that an unfavorable resolution of claims against ILG, including claims where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, will not have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of ILG, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management's view of these matters may change in the future. ILG also evaluates other contingent matters, including tax contingencies, to assess the probability and estimated extent of potential loss. See Note 10 for a discussion of income tax contingencies.

        Other items, such as certain purchase commitments and guarantees are not recognized as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements but are required to be disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements. These funding commitments could potentially require our performance in the event of demands by third parties or contingent events. At September 30, 2013, guarantees, surety bonds and letters of credit totaled $23.1 million, with the highest annual amount of $12.7 million occurring in year one. The total includes maximum exposure under guarantees of $19.8 million, which primarily relates to the Management and Rental segment's hotel and resort management agreements of Aston, including those with guaranteed dollar amounts, and accommodation leases supporting the

management activities of Aston, entered into on behalf of the property owners for which either party may terminate such leases upon 60 days prior written notice to the other party. In addition, certain of the Management and Rental segment's hotel and resort management agreements of Aston provide that owners receive specified percentages of the revenue generated under its management. In these cases, the operating expenses for the rental operations are paid from the revenue generated by the rentals, the owners are then paid their contractual percentages, and the Management and Rental segment either retains the balance (if any) as its management fee or makes up the deficit. Although such deficits are reasonably possible in a few of these agreements, as of September 30, 2013, future amounts are not expected to be significant, individually or in the aggregate.

        The purchase obligations primarily relate to future guaranteed purchases of rental inventory, operational support services and membership fulfillment benefits. Aston also enters into agreements, as principal, for services purchased on behalf of property owners for which it is subsequently reimbursed. As such, Aston is the primary obligor and may be liable for unreimbursed costs. As of September 30, 2013, amounts pending reimbursements are not significant.

European Union Value Added Tax Matter

        In 2009, the European Court of Justice issued a judgment related to Value Added Tax ("VAT") in Europe against an unrelated party. The judgment affects companies who transact within the European Union ("EU"), specifically providers of vacation interest exchange services, and altered the manner in which the Membership and Exchange segment accounts for VAT on its revenues as well as to which EU country VAT is owed. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, ILG had an accrual of $2.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively, representing the net exposure of any VAT reclaim refund receivable and accrued VAT liabilities related to this matter. The net change of $1.6 million in the accrual from December 31, 2012 primarily relates to a decrease in the change in estimate primarily to update the periods for which the accrued VAT liabilities are due and to refine the VAT accrual calculation for certain other countries, including $0.5 million in payments, and the effect of foreign currency remeasurements. The change in estimate resulted in favorable adjustments to our consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate outcome and settlement of these VAT liabilities, it is reasonably possible that future costs to settle these VAT liabilities may range from $2.9 million up to approximately $4.2 million based on quarter-end exchange rates. ILG believes that the $2.9 million accrual at September 30, 2013 is our best estimate of probable future obligations for the settlement of these VAT liabilities. The difference between the probable and reasonably possible amounts is primarily attributable to the assessment of certain potential penalties.

MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW

General Description of our Business

        ILG is a leading global provider of membership and leisure services to the vacation industry. We operate in two operating segments: Membership and Exchange and Management and Rental. Membership and Exchange offers leisure and travel- related products and services to owners of vacation interests and others primarily through various membership programs, as well as related services to resort developer clients. Management and Rental provides hotel, condominium resort, timeshare resort and homeowners association management, and rental services to both vacation property owners and vacationers.

Membership and Exchange Services

        Interval, the principal business comprising our Membership and Exchange segment, has been a leader in the membership and exchange services industry since its founding in 1976. As of September 30, 2013, Interval's primary operation is the Interval Network, a quality global vacation ownership membership exchange network with:

    a large and diversified base of participating resorts consisting of approximately 2,800 resorts located in over 75 countries, including both leading independent resort developers and branded hospitality companies; and

    approximately 1.8 million vacation ownership interest owners enrolled as members of the Interval Network.

        Interval typically enters into multi-year contracts with developers of vacation ownership resorts, pursuant to which the resort developers agree to enroll all purchasers of vacation interests at the applicable resort as members of an Interval exchange program. In return, Interval provides enrolled purchasers with the ability to exchange the use and occupancy of their vacation interest at the home resort (generally for a period of one week) for the right to occupy accommodations at a different resort participating in an Interval exchange network. Through Interval's Getaways, members may rent resort accommodations for a fee without relinquishing the use of their vacation interest. In addition, Interval offers sales, marketing and operational support, consulting and back-office services, including reservation servicing, to certain resort developers participating in the Interval Network, upon their request and for additional consideration.

        The Membership and Exchange segment earns most of its revenue from (i) fees paid for membership in the Interval Network and (ii) Interval Network transactional and service fees paid primarily for exchanges, Getaways, reservation servicing, and related transactions collectively referred to as "transaction revenue."

Management and Rental Services

        We also provide management and rental services to hotels as well as condominium and timeshare resorts and their homeowners associations through Aston, Vacation Resorts International, or VRI, and Trading Places International, or TPI. Such vacation properties and hotels are not owned by us. Aston is based in Hawaii and concentrates largely on hotel and condominium resort management primarily in Hawaii, as well as vacation property rental and related services (including common area and owner association management services for condominium projects). TPI provides property management, vacation rental and homeowners association management services to timeshare resorts in the United States, Canada and Mexico. On February 28, 2012, we acquired VRI, a non-developer provider of resort and homeowners association management services to the shared ownership industry.

31


        As of September 30, 2013, the businesses that comprise our Management and Rental segment provided management and rental services at over 200 vacation properties, resorts and club locations in North America as well as more limited management services to certain additional properties.

        Revenue from the Management and Rental segment is derived principally from fees for hotel, condominium resort, timeshare resort and homeowners association management and rental services. Management fees consist of a base management fee and, in some instances for hotels or condominium resorts, an incentive management fee which is generally a percentage of operating profits or improvement in operating profits. Service fee revenue is based on the services provided to owners including reservations, sales and marketing, property accounting and information technology services either internally or through third party providers. A majority of Aston's hotel and condominium resort management agreements provide that owners receive either specified percentages of the revenue generated under our management or guaranteed dollar amounts. In these cases, the operating expenses for the rental operation are paid from the revenue generated by the rentals, the owners are then paid their contractual percentages or amounts, and the Management and Rental segment either retains the balance (if any) as its management fee or makes up the deficit.

International Revenue

        International revenue increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 by 2.0% and 0.2%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012. As a percentage of our total revenue, international revenue remained relatively consistent at 17.5% in the three months ended September 30, 2013 and decreased in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to 18.0%, from 18.8% in the same period in 2012. The decrease in international revenue as a percentage of total revenue is largely attributable to the February 2012 acquisition of VRI which operates entirely in the United States.

Other Factors Affecting Results

Membership and Exchange

        The consolidation of resort developers driven by bankruptcies and the lack of receivables financing has resulted in a decrease in the flow of new members from point of sale to our exchange networks. While access to receivables financing has recovered, financing standards for consumers remain higher than those required several years ago. Additionally, a high proportion of sales by developers are to their existing owners, which does not result in new members to the Interval Network.

        Our 2013 results to-date continue to be negatively affected by a shift in the percentage mix of our membership base from traditional, direct renewal members to corporate members. Our corporate developer accounts enroll and renew their entire active owner base which positively impacts our retention rate, however, these members tend to have a lower propensity to transact with us. Membership mix as of September 30, 2013 included 60.5% traditional and 39.5% corporate members, compared to 62.3% and 37.7%, respectively, as of September 30, 2012. Consequently, where possible, we structure our corporate membership arrangements to include reservation servicing and/or other revenue streams to mitigate the anticipated lower transaction propensity.

Management and Rental

        Our Management and Rental segment results are susceptible to variations in economic conditions, particularly in its largest market, Hawaii. According to the Hawaii Tourism Authority, visitor arrivals by air in Hawaii increased 2.2% and 4.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in visitors correlates with an overall increase of 11.2% and 11.8% in revenue per available room ("RevPAR") in Hawaii for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012. The increases in RevPAR in Hawaii were driven by higher average daily rates.

32


        As of the latest forecast (August 2013), the Hawaii Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism forecasts increases of 4.3% in visitors to Hawaii and 5.3% in visitor expenditures in 2013 over 2012.

Business Acquisitions

        On February 28, 2012, we acquired VRI, a non-developer provider of resort and homeowners association management services to the shared ownership industry. VRI was consolidated into our financial statements as of the acquisition date and the financial effect of this acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements; however, the year-over-year comparability for the nine month period ending September 30, 2013 was affected as further discussed in our Results of Operations section.

        In August 2013, Interval Leisure Group and its subsidiary, VRI Europe Limited, entered into a definitive agreement with CLC World Resorts and Hotels. On November 4, 2013, VRI Europe Limited purchased the European shared ownership resort management business of CLC, for approximately £56 million (or approximately $90 million) in cash (subject to adjustment for working capital, actual 2013 results and other specified items) and issuance to CLC of shares totaling 24.5% of VRI Europe Limited. In connection with this arrangement, ILG has agreed to issue a convertible secured loan for approximately $15 million to CLC which matures in five years with interest payable monthly.

Outlook

        The vacation ownership industry remains in a period of transition that resulted in the bankruptcy, restructuring and consolidation of developers as well as continued modifications to their business models. We expect additional consolidation and reorganizations within the industry. Additionally, we anticipate continued margin compression and increased competition in our membership and exchange business.

        For the Management and Rental segment, we expect Aston's RevPAR to continue to show year-over-year improvement as its largest market, Hawaii, continues its tourism recovery and benefits from increases in airlift into the island chain; however, increases in the cost of a Hawaiian vacation may negatively impact visitor arrivals and temper growth. Additionally, our completion of the VRI Europe transaction will affect the year-over-year comparability of our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 and, to a lesser extent, the fourth quarter of 2013. The VRI Europe transaction also will affect international revenue as a percentage of total revenue

Total revenue

        Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased $2.0 million, or 1.7%, from the comparable period in 2012. Membership and Exchange segment revenue increased $0.5 million, or 0.6%, and Management and Rental segment revenue increased $1.4 million, or 4.6%, in the quarter compared to 2012.

Membership and Exchange

        Membership and Exchange revenue increased $0.5 million, or 0.6%, in the third quarter of 2013 compared to 2012. This increase is primarily driven by an increase in other revenue of $1.4 million, partly offset by lower transaction and membership fee revenue of $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Other revenue consists primarily of revenue generated from non-Interval Network activities. The increase in other revenue for the current period is primarily attributable to transaction activity and other membership programs outside of the Interval Network, coupled with an increase in sales of marketing materials primarily for point-of-sale developer use.

        The drop in transaction revenue is a result of lower revenue from exchanges and Getaways of $1.0 million, partly offset by an increase in other transaction related fees and reservation servicing revenue of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Lower transaction revenue from exchanges and Getaways was due to a 3.2% decrease in related transaction volume, partly offset by a 2.1% increase in average fee per transaction. The contraction in transaction volume is related to the continued shift in percentage mix of the membership base from traditional to corporate, which reduced transaction propensity, as well as, less inventory available for use in Getaways.

        Total active members in the Interval Network at September 30, 2013 decreased 2.2% to approximately 1.82 million members as compared to approximately 1.86 million members at September 30, 2012. Overall Interval Network average revenue per member was $44.06 for the third quarter of 2013, an increase of 1.2% over prior year average revenue per member of $43.54.

34


Management and Rental

        The increase of $1.1 million, or 7.2%, in management fee and rental revenue was primarily driven by higher fee income earned from managed hotel and condominium resort properties at Aston of $0.8 million, or 11.4%, in the third quarter of 2013. This increase was driven by a year-over-year increase of 8.2% in RevPAR to $145.53 attributable to a 9.9% higher average daily rate, partly offset by a 1.5% drop in occupancy rates during the quarter compared to the prior year.

        Pass-through revenue represents reimbursed compensation and other employee-related costs directly associated with managing properties that are included in both revenue and expenses and that are passed on to the property owners or homeowners association without mark-up. Pass-through revenue increased $0.3 million, or 2.2%, during the quarter compared to prior year is due to an increase in average operational headcount resulting primarily from the addition of new Aston properties under management.

Total revenue

  $ 379,020     4.5 % $ 362,602  
               

        Revenue for the first nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $16.4 million, or 4.5%, from the comparable period in 2012. Membership and Exchange segment revenue increased $7.5 million, or 2.7%, in the period compared to the prior year and Management and Rental segment revenue increased $8.9 million, or 10.4%, from 2012.

Membership and Exchange

        Membership and Exchange revenue increased $7.5 million, or 2.7%, in first nine months of 2013 compared to 2012. This increase is primarily driven by increases in membership fee revenue of $4.8 million and other revenue of $2.2 million, coupled with a rise in transaction revenue of $0.5 million. The increase of $4.8 million in membership fee revenue in 2013 compared to 2012 is mainly a result of a correction of an immaterial prior period understatement of membership revenue amounting to $4.1 million during the second quarter of 2013, coupled with greater adoption of Platinum and Club Interval products.

        The rise in transaction revenue is mainly related to higher other transaction related fees and reservation servicing revenue of $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively, partly offset by a drop in revenue from exchanges and Getaways of $0.4 million. Lower transaction revenue from exchanges and

35


Getaways was caused by a decrease in transaction volume of 1.4%, partly offset by a rise of 1.8% in average fee per transaction. Lower transaction volume is related to the continued shift in percentage mix of the membership base from traditional to corporate, which reduced transaction propensity.

        The increase in other revenue for the current period is primarily attributable to transaction activity and other membership programs outside of the Interval Network, coupled with higher sales of marketing materials primarily for point-of-sale developer use. Overall Interval Network average revenue per member was $145.48 in 2013, which was higher by 3.2% over the prior year period.

Management and Rental

        The increase of $6.7 million, or 16.2%, in management fee and rental revenue includes $4.6 million of incremental VRI management fee revenue subsequent to our February 2012 acquisition. Fee income earned from managed hotel and condominium resort properties at Aston increased $1.9 million, or 9.3%, in the first nine months of 2013 driven by a year-over-year increase of 11.3% in RevPAR to $146.74 attributable to an 11.9% higher average daily rate during the current nine month period compared to prior year.

        The increase in pass-through revenue of $2.3 million, or 5.0%, in the first nine months of 2013 is related to our acquisition of VRI and an increase in average operational headcount resulting primarily from the addition of new Aston properties under management.

        Cost of sales consists primarily of compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in servicing members of the Membership and Exchange segment and providing services to property owners and/or guests of the Management and Rental segment's managed vacation properties, as well as cost of rental inventory used primarily for Getaways included within the Membership and Exchange segment.

        Cost of sales in the third quarter of 2013 increased $0.3 million from 2012, consisting of an increase of $0.3 million from our Management and Rental segment, partly offset by a decrease of $0.1 million from our Membership and Exchange segment. Overall gross margin of 64.8% remained relatively consistent year-over-year.

36


        Gross margin for the Membership and Exchange segment in the third quarter of 2013 improved by 25 basis points to 76.4% when compared to the prior year. Cost of sales for this segment in the current quarter was relatively in line with the prior year, decreasing $0.1 million, or 0.5%.

        Cost of sales for our Management and Rental segment was relatively consistent with the prior period, increasing by $0.3 million, or 1.6%, as a result of higher pass-through expenses. Gross margin for this segment increased by 195 basis points to 33.8% in the third quarter of 2013 compared to 2012. Our Management and Rental segment has lower gross margins than our Membership and Exchange segment largely due to the effect of pass-through revenue. Excluding the effect of pass-through revenue, gross margin for this segment increased by 232 basis points to 67.8% during the quarter compared to the prior year.

Overall gross margin of 65.2% remained relatively consistent year-over-year.

        Gross margin for the Membership and Exchange segment in the first nine months of 2013 was relatively consistent when compared to the prior year. Cost of sales for this segment increased $0.3 million, or 0.4%, primarily due to an increase of $1.0 million in purchased inventory expense, partly offset by lower costs pertaining to our membership fulfillment activities. The increase in purchased inventory expense was due to a higher proportion of purchased inventory utilized during 2013, coupled with an increase in the average cost per unit of this purchased inventory.

        The increase of $3.7 million in cost of sales from the Management and Rental segment was primarily attributable to an increase of $2.3 million in segment pass-through revenue and of $1.2 million in other incremental expenses related to the additional two months of VRI's results included in the 2013 period, as well as higher compensation and other employee related costs. Gross margin for this segment increased by 260 basis points to 33.4% in the first nine months of 2013 compared to 2012. Excluding the effect of pass-through revenue, gross margin for this segment increased by 195 basis points to 66.2% during 2013 compared to the prior year.

        Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of advertising and promotional expenditures and compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in sales and sales support functions. Advertising and promotional expenditures primarily include printing costs of directories and magazines, promotions, tradeshows, agency fees, marketing fees and related commissions.

        Selling and marketing expense in the third quarter of 2013 was lower by $0.3 million, or 2.5%, when compared to the prior year. The year-over-year decrease in sales and marketing expenses relates largely to a shift in the timing of an industry tradeshow and lower marketing related commissions incurred during the quarter. As a percentage of total revenue and total revenue excluding pass-through revenue, sales and marketing expense decreased 46 and 53 basis points, respectively, during the third quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year.

        General and administrative expense in the third quarter of 2013 increased $0.8 million from 2012. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher professional fees of $1.4 million primarily related to accounting and legal services provided largely in connection with the purchase of 75.5% of the European shared ownership resort management business of CLC. In addition, general and administrative expense reflects an unfavorable year-over-year net change of $0.8 million in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration related to an acquisition. These increases were partly offset by lower health and welfare insurance expense principally resulting from a drop in self-insured claim activity during 2013 compared to prior year.

        General and administrative expense in the first nine months of 2013 increased $2.9 million from 2012, primarily due to incremental expenses of $1.8 million in the 2013 period from the addition of VRI, higher professional fees of $2.9 million, and an unfavorable year-over-year net change of $1.2 million related to the estimated fair value of contingent consideration for an acquisition. These cost increases were partly offset by lower overall compensation and other employee related costs of $3.1 million, excluding VRI incremental expenses.

        The $2.9 million increase in professional fees primarily related to accounting and legal services provided largely in connection with the purchase of 75.5% of the European shared ownership resort management business of CLC, as well as to certain IT initiatives.

        The $3.1 million decrease in overall compensation and other employee-related costs, excluding incremental VRI expense, was primarily due to a decrease of $1.2 million in non-cash compensation expense mainly relating to certain awards vesting fully during the third quarter of 2012 through the first quarter of 2013, which was partially offset by the incremental expense related to new awards granted in the first quarter of 2013. Additionally, lower overall compensation reflects higher capitalized internal labor costs of $1.1 million pertaining to internally developed software, and $2.2 million of lower health and welfare insurance expense primarily resulting from a drop in self-insured claim activity during 2013 compared to prior year. These decreases were partly offset by higher salary and incentive related compensation.

        As a percentage of total revenue and total revenue excluding pass-through revenue, general and administrative expense during the first nine months of 2013 was in-line with the prior year.

        Amortization expense of intangibles for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 decreased $4.7 million and $15.1 million, respectively, from the comparable period in 2012 primarily due to certain intangible assets related to the acquisition by IAC of our Interval International business in 2002 being fully amortized by the end of the third quarter of 2012, partly offset by the incremental amortization expense in the nine month period of 2013 pertaining to intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of VRI in February 2012.

        Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, over the comparable 2012 period largely due to additional depreciable assets being placed in service subsequent to September 30, 2012. These depreciable assets pertain primarily to software and related IT hardware.

        Operating income in the third quarter of 2013 increased $5.8 million from the comparable period in 2012 as a result of the $5.8 million incremental contribution from our Membership and Exchange segment. Operating income from our Management and Rental segment was flat with the third quarter of 2012.

        Operating income for our Membership and Exchange segment increased $5.8 million to $29.2 million in the third quarter compared to prior year. This increase was primarily driven by $4.6 million of lower amortization expense of intangibles and by an increase in revenue that resulted in higher gross profit of $0.6 million, largely due to an increase in transaction activity and other membership programs outside of the Interval Network, as well as a decrease in other operating expenses.

        Operating income for our Management and Rental segment came in at $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2013, which is in-line with the prior year. Operating income in the quarter was negatively impacted by $1.2 million of higher professional fees during the period largely related to the purchase of 75.5% of the European shared ownership resort management business of CLC. This increase in general and administrative expense was offset by stronger gross profit contribution on a quarter-over-quarter basis.

        Operating income for our Membership and Exchange segment increased $23.4 million to $102.5 million in the nine month period compared to prior year. The rise in operating income was driven primarily by $14.8 million of lower amortization expense of intangibles, a drop of $1.7 million in general and administrative expense mainly resulting from lower overall compensation and employee related costs, coupled with stronger year-over-year gross profit contribution.

        The increase in operating income of $0.6 million in our Management and Rental segment is primarily due to the incremental contribution from VRI and improved operating results at Aston during the current nine month period. These increases were partly offset by higher professional fees largely related to the purchase of 75.5% of the European shared ownership resort management business of CLC and an unfavorable year-over-year net change of $0.6 million related to the estimated fair value of contingent consideration for an acquisition.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization

        Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA) is a non-GAAP measure and is defined in "ILG's Principles of Financial Reporting." Prior period amounts have been recasted to conform to the current period definition of Adjusted EBITDA.

        Adjusted EBITDA of $35.3 million from our Membership and Exchange segment grew by $1.6 million, or 4.9%, compared to the prior year. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA is primarily driven by an increase in transaction activity and other membership programs outside of the Interval Network, as well as lower general and administrative expenses after adjusting for acquisition related and restructuring costs.

        Adjusted EBITDA from our Management and Rental increased by 37.4% to $5.6 million in the third quarter of 2013 from $4.1 million in 2012. The year-over-year growth in adjusted EBITDA for this segment is driven by stronger gross profit contribution in the quarter, largely as a result of an increase in RevPAR at Aston.

        Adjusted EBITDA of $117.2 million from our Membership and Exchange segment grew by $5.2 million, or 4.7%, compared to the prior year. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA is primarily driven by stronger revenue during the first nine months of 2013, largely due to the positive contributions from our Platinum and Club Interval products and higher transaction revenue from the Interval Network, as well as an increase in transaction activity and other membership programs outside of the Interval Network. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA in the period benefitted from lower sales and marketing costs, partly related to a shift in the timing of an industry tradeshow, as well as a decrease in compensation and employee-related costs within general and administrative expense.

        Adjusted EBITDA from our Management and Rental segment rose by $3.2 million in the first nine months of 2013 to $14.2 million from $11.0 million in 2012. The growth in adjusted EBITDA in this segment is primarily driven by the incremental contribution from VRI in the 2013 period together with delivering higher gross profit on a year-over-year comparable basis, in addition to improvement in Aston's RevPAR during the year. These drivers of adjusted EBITDA were partly offset by higher professional fees incurred for services provided in connection with the property management infrastructure at Aston.

Interest expense in the third quarter of 2013 relates to interest and amortization of debt costs on our amended and restated revolving credit facility entered into on June 21, 2012. Lower interest expense in the third quarter of 2013 is primarily due to lower average balance outstanding and interest rate under the revolving credit facility compared to the senior notes.

Interest expense in the first nine months of 2013 relates to interest and amortization of debt costs on our amended and restated revolving credit facility entered into on June 21, 2012.

Income Tax Provision

For the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012

        For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, ILG recorded income tax provisions for continuing operations of $13.0 million and $0.6 million, respectively, which represent effective tax rates of 43.1% and 80.5%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the tax rate is higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to state and local income taxes partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the effective tax rate further increased due to income taxes associated with the effect of changes in tax laws in certain states and other income tax items, the most significant of which related to the effect of changes in tax laws in the U.K, as discussed further below, that were enacted during the third quarter of 2013. The higher effective tax rate for the period ended September 30, 2012, was primarily attributable to reduced income before income taxes, driven by the loss on the extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of the senior notes, which magnified the impact of other income tax items, the most significant of which related to the effect of changes in tax laws in the U.K that were enacted during the third quarter of 2012.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012

        For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, ILG recorded income tax provisions for continuing operations of $41.6 million and $14.9 million, respectively, which represent effective tax rates of 39.9% and 37.0%, respectively. These tax rates are higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to state and local income taxes partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the effective tax rate is higher than the prior year period primarily due to the shift in the projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed between the various jurisdictions and the effect of changes in tax laws in certain states and in the U.K. that were enacted during the third quarter of 2013. Additionally, the 2012 period benefitted from the one-time permanent difference attributable to ILG's ability to redeem the senior notes.

        As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, ILG had unrecognized tax benefits of $1.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of which $1.2 million and $0.7 million, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate. There were no material increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for the three months ended September 30, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the unrecognized tax benefits increased by a net amount of approximately $1.0 million, primarily attributable to an increase recorded during the first quarter of 2013 of approximately $1.1 million related to state income tax items offset by approximately $0.2 million recorded during the first quarter of 2013 related to the decrease in unrecognized tax benefits as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes. The increase of

44


$1.1 million for state income tax items did not have an overall impact on the effective tax rate as it is entirely offset by a related state refund claim filed during the first quarter of 2013.

        ILG recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. There were no material accruals for interest for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, interest and penalties decreased by approximately $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2013 as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes. As of September 30, 2013, ILG had accrued $0.4 million for interest and penalties.

        ILG believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $1.3 million within twelve months of the current reporting date due primarily to binding technical advice expected to be issued by state taxing authorities on state income tax items and the expiration of the statute of limitations related to foreign taxes. An estimate of other changes in unrecognized tax benefits cannot be made, but is not expected to be significant.

        ILG has routinely been under audit by federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. Income taxes payable include amounts considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year returns; however, the amount paid upon resolution of issues raised may differ from the amount provided. Differences between the reserves for tax contingencies and the amounts owed by ILG are recorded in the period they become known. Under a Tax Sharing Agreement, IAC indemnifies ILG for all consolidated tax liabilities and related interest and penalties for the pre-spin period.

        During 2012, the U.K. Finance Act of 2012 was enacted, which further reduced the U.K. corporate income tax rate to 24%, effective April 1, 2012 and 23%, effective April 1, 2013. The impact of the U.K. rate reduction to 24% and 23%, which reduced our U.K. net deferred tax asset and increased income tax expense, was reflected in the reporting period when the law was enacted. During the third quarter of 2013, the U.K. Finance Act of 2013 was enacted which further reduced the U.K. corporate income tax rate to 21%, effective April 1, 2014 and 20%, effective April 1, 2015. The impact of the U.K. rate reduction to 21% and 20% has been reflected in the current reporting period. It reduced our U.K. net deferred tax asset and increased income tax expense by approximately $0.6 million. The change in the corporate tax rate initially negatively impacts income tax expense as the future benefit expected to be realized from our U.K. net deferred tax assets decreases; however, going forward, the lower corporate tax rate will decrease income tax expense and favorably impact our effective tax rate.

        Subsequent to September 30, 2013, we received the expected favorable binding technical advice issued by a state taxing authority on state income tax items. This advice will allow us to decrease our unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, and additionally will lower state income taxes and favorably impact our effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2013 and going forward.

FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        As of September 30, 2013, we had $103.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, including $94.9 million of U.S. dollar equivalent or denominated cash deposits held by foreign subsidiaries which are subject to changes in foreign exchange rates. Of this amount, $61.8 million is held in foreign jurisdictions, principally the U.K. Earnings of foreign subsidiaries, except Venezuela, are permanently reinvested. Additional tax provisions would be required should such earnings be repatriated to the U.S. Cash generated by operations is used as our primary source of liquidity. Additionally, we are also exposed to risks associated with the repatriation of cash from certain of our foreign operations to the United States where currency restrictions exist, such as Venezuela and Argentina, which limit our ability to immediately access cash through repatriations. These currency restrictions had no impact on our overall liquidity during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and, as of September 30, 2012, the respective cash balances were immaterial to our overall cash on hand.

        We believe that our cash on hand along with our anticipated operating future cash flows and availability under our $500 million revolving credit facility, which may be increased to up to $700 million subject to certain conditions, are sufficient to fund our operating needs, quarterly cash dividend, capital expenditures, development and expansion of our operations, debt service, investments and other commitments and contingencies for at least the next twelve months. However, our operating cash flow may be impacted by macroeconomic and other factors outside of our control.

Cash Flows Discussion

        Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $89.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $64.1 million in the same period of 2012. The increase of $25.2 million from 2012 was principally due to lower interest paid as well as higher cash receipts and lower net cash expenses in 2013 compared to 2012, partly offset by an increase in income taxes paid primarily related to higher actual pre-tax book income in 2013.

        Net cash used in investing activities of $1.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 primarily related to capital expenditures of $9.3 million principally pertaining to IT initiatives and to the acquisition of certain property management contracts and other assets by our management and rental segment, partially offset by the early repayment of an existing loan receivable totaling $9.9 million. Net cash used in investing activities of $42.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily related to the VRI acquisition, net of cash acquired, of $40.0 million, disbursements totaling $9.5 million for additional investments in loans receivable and capital expenditures of $10.4 million principally pertaining to IT initiatives, all partially offset by payments totaling $17.0 million received on an existing loan.

        Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure and is defined in "ILG's Principles of Financial Reporting." For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, free cash flow was $80.0 million and $53.7 million, respectively. The change is mainly a result of the variance in net cash provided by operating activities as discussed above.

        Net cash used in financing activities of $84.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 primarily related to principal payments of $70 million on our revolving credit facility, $12.6 million of dividends paid, and withholding taxes on the vesting of restricted stock units. These uses of cash were partially offset by excess tax benefits from stock-based awards and the proceeds from the exercise of stock options. In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net cash used in financing activities of $89.4 million was primarily due to the redemption of our senior notes, principal payments of $56.0 million on the term loan, of which we paid $51.0 million from cash on-hand in June 2012 to fully extinguish the term loan, cash dividends totaling $17.0 million, payments of debt issuance costs of $3.9 million in connection with entering into our amended and restated credit agreement in June 2012, and withholding taxes on the vesting of restricted stock units. These uses of cash were partially offset

46


by the $290.0 million drawn on our revolving credit facility to fund the redemption, and proceeds from excess tax benefits from stock-based awards and the exercise of stock options.

        On June 21, 2012, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement which, among other things (1) provides for a $500 million revolving credit facility, (2) extends the maturity of the credit facility to June 21, 2017, (3) provides for an interest rate on borrowings, commitment fees and letter of credit fees based on ILG and its subsidiaries' consolidated leverage ratio, and (4) may be increased to up to $700 million, subject to certain conditions. As of September 30, 2013, $190 million of borrowings were outstanding under the revolving credit facility, with $310 million available to be drawn.

        Any principal amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are due at maturity. The interest rate on the amended credit agreement is based on (at our election) either LIBOR plus a predetermined margin that ranges from 1.25% to 2.25%, or the Base Rate as defined in the amended credit agreement plus a predetermined margin that ranges from 0.25% to 1.25%, in each case based on our consolidated leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2013, the applicable margin was 1.50% per annum for LIBOR revolving loans and 0.50% per annum for Base Rate loans. The revolving credit facility has a commitment fee on undrawn amounts that ranges from 0.25% to 0.375% per annum based on our consolidated leverage ratio and as of September 30, 2013, the commitment fee was 0.275%.

        The revolving credit facility has various financial and operating covenants that place significant restrictions on us, including our ability to incur additional indebtedness, to incur additional liens, issue redeemable stock and preferred stock, pay dividends or distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock, prepay, redeem or repurchase debt, make loans and investments, enter into agreements that restrict distributions from our subsidiaries, sell assets and capital stock of our subsidiaries, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and consolidate or merge with or into or sell substantially all of our assets to another person. The revolving credit facility requires us to meet certain financial covenants regarding the maintenance of a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of consolidated debt, less credit given for a portion of foreign cash, over consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), as defined in the amended credit agreement, of 3.50 through December 31, 2013 and 3.25 thereafter. Additionally, we are required to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA over consolidated interest expense, as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, of 3.0. As of September 30, 2013, ILG was in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of all applicable financial and operating covenants and our consolidated leverage ratio and consolidated interest coverage ratio under the amended credit agreement were 1.00 and 33.30, respectively.

Dividends

        In May and August 2013, our Board of Directors declared quarterly dividend payments of $0.11 per share paid in June and September 2013, respectively, of $6.3 million each.

        In November 2013, our Board of Directors declared a $0.11 per share dividend payable December 18, 2013 to shareholders of record on December 4, 2013.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

        We have funding commitments that could potentially require our performance in the event of demands by third parties or contingent events. At September 30, 2013, guarantees, surety bonds and letters of credit totaled $23.1 million. The total includes maximum exposure under guarantees of $19.8 million, which primarily relates to the Management and Rental segment's hotel and resort management agreements of Aston, including those with guaranteed dollar amounts, and accommodation leases supporting the Aston management activities, entered into on behalf of the property owners for which either party may terminate such leases upon 60 days prior written notice to the other. In addition, certain of the Management and Rental segment's hotel and resort management

47


agreements of Aston provide that owners receive specified percentages of the revenue generated under Aston management. In these cases, the operating expenses for the rental operations are paid from the revenue generated by the rentals, the owners are then paid their contractual percentages, and the Management and Rental segment either retains the balance (if any) as its management fee or makes up the deficit. Although such deficits are reasonably possible in a few of these agreements, as of September 30, 2013 amounts are not expected to be significant, individually or in the aggregate. Aston also enters into agreements, as principal, for services purchased on behalf of property owners for which it is subsequently reimbursed. As such, Aston is the primary obligor and may be liable for unreimbursed costs. As of September 30, 2013, amounts pending reimbursements are not significant.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates which are based on historical experience and on various other judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. We have discussed those estimates that we believe are critical and required the use of significant judgment and use of estimates that could have a significant impact on our financial statements in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies in the interim period.

ILG'S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

Definition of ILG's Non-GAAP Measures

        Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is defined as net income excluding, if applicable: (1) interest income and interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation expense, and (4) amortization expense of intangibles.

        Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) goodwill and asset impairments, (3) acquisition related and restructuring costs, (4) other non-operating income and expense and (5) the impact of correcting prior period items.

        Non-GAAP net income is defined as net income attributable to common stockholders excluding the impact of correcting an immaterial prior period net understatement in the current year-to-date financials and excluding the prior year non-cash loss on extinguishment of our indebtedness, net of tax.

        Non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS) is defined as non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period for basic EPS and, additionally, inclusive of dilutive securities for diluted EPS.

        Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.

        Our presentation of above-mentioned non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. We believe these measures are useful to investors because they represent the consolidated operating results from our segments, excluding the effects of any non-cash expenses. We also believe these non-GAAP financial measures improve the transparency of our disclosures, provide a meaningful presentation of our results from our business operations, excluding the impact of certain items not related to our core business operations and improve the period-to-period comparability of results from business operations. These non-GAAP measures have certain limitations in that they do not take into account the impact of certain expenses to our statement of operations; including non-cash compensation for adjusted EBITDA. We endeavor to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measures presented by also providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure.

        We report these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to results reported pursuant to GAAP. These measures are among the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. We believe that investors should have access to the same set of metrics that we use in analyzing our results. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We provide and encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures which are discussed below.

Pro Forma Results

        We will only present EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA on a pro forma basis if we view a particular transaction as significant in size or transformational in nature. For the periods presented in this report, there are no transactions that we have included on a pro forma basis.

Items That Are Excluded From ILG's Non-GAAP Measures (as applicable)

        Amortization expense of intangibles is a non-cash expense relating primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets of the acquired company, such as customer relationships, purchase agreements and resort management agreements are valued and amortized over their

50


estimated lives. We believe that since intangibles represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition, they were part of transaction costs.

        Depreciation expense is a non-cash expense relating to our property and equipment and is recorded on a straight-line basis to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives.

        Non-cash compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants of restricted stock units. These expenses are not paid in cash, and we will include the related shares in our future calculations of diluted shares of stock outstanding. Upon vesting of restricted stock units, the awards will be settled, at our discretion, on a net basis, with us remitting the required tax withholding amount from our current funds.

        Goodwill and asset impairments are non-cash expenses relating to adjustments to goodwill and long-lived assets whereby the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the related assets, and are infrequent in nature.

        Acquisition related and restructuring costs are transaction fees, costs incurred in connection with performing due diligence, subsequent adjustments to our initial estimate of contingent consideration obligations associated with business acquisitions, and other direct costs related to acquisition activities. Additionally, this item includes certain restructuring charges primarily related to workforce reductions and estimated costs of exiting contractual commitments.

        Other non-operating income and expense consists principally of foreign currency translations of cash held in certain countries in currencies, principally U.S. dollars, other than their functional currency, in addition to any gains or losses on extinguishment of debt.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

        We conduct business in certain foreign markets, primarily in the United Kingdom and other European Union markets. Our foreign currency risk primarily relates to our investments in foreign subsidiaries that transact business in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. This exposure is mitigated as we have generally reinvested profits in our international operations. As currency exchange rates change, translation of the income statements of our international businesses into U.S. dollars affects year-over-year comparability of operating results.

        In addition, we are exposed to foreign currency risk related to transactions and/or assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency. Historically, we have not hedged currency risks. However, our foreign currency exposure related to EU VAT liabilities denominated in euros is offset by euro denominated cash balances.

        Furthermore, in an effort to mitigate economic risk, we hold U.S. dollars in certain subsidiaries that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.

        Operating foreign currency exchange for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 resulted in a net gain of $0.1 million and a net loss of $25,000, respectively, attributable to foreign currency remeasurements of operating assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. Operating foreign currency exchange for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 resulted in net losses of $0.1 million in each period.

54


        Non-operating foreign exchange for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 resulted in net losses of $0.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, attributable to cash held in certain countries in currencies other than their functional currency. Non-operating foreign exchange for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 resulted in a net gain of $1.2 million and a net loss of $2.1 million, respectively.

        The unfavorable fluctuations in the third quarter of 2013 were principally driven by U.S. dollar positions held at September 30, 2013 affected by the weaker dollar compared to the Columbia peso and the British pound. The unfavorable fluctuations in the third quarter of 2012 were principally driven by U.S. dollar positions held at September 30, 2012 affected by the weaker dollar compared to the Mexican peso. The favorable fluctuations in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were principally driven by U.S. dollar positions held at September 30, 2013 affected by the stronger dollar compared to the Colombian and Mexican pesos and the Egyptian pound. The unfavorable fluctuations in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were principally driven by U.S. dollar positions held at September 30, 2012 affected by the weaker dollar compared to the Mexican and Colombian pesos.

        Our operations in international markets are exposed to potentially volatile movements in currency exchange rates. The economic impact of currency exchange rate movements on us is often linked to variability in real growth, inflation, interest rates, governmental actions and other factors. These changes, if material, could cause us to adjust our financing, operating and hedging strategies. A hypothetical 10% weakening/strengthening in foreign exchange rates to the U.S. dollar for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 would result in an approximate change to revenue of $0.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively. There have been no material quantitative changes in market risk exposures since December 31, 2012.

Interest Rate Risk

        We are exposed to interest rate risk through borrowings under our June 21, 2012 amended credit agreement which bears interest at variable rates. The interest rate on the amended credit agreement is based on (at our election) either LIBOR plus a predetermined margin that ranges from 1.25% to 2.25%, or the Base Rate as defined in the amended credit agreement plus a predetermined margin that ranges from 0.25% to 1.25%, in each case based on ILG's leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2013, the applicable margin was 1.50% per annum for LIBOR revolving loans and 0.50% per annum for Base Rate loans. During the third quarter of 2013, we had at least $190 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility; a 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in an approximate change to interest expense of $0.5 million for the current quarter. While we currently do not hedge our interest rate exposure, this risk is somewhat mitigated by variable interest rates earned on our cash balances.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

        We monitor and evaluate on an ongoing basis our disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting in order to improve our overall effectiveness. In the course of this evaluation, we modify and refine our internal processes as conditions warrant.

        As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and

55


reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

        As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, we, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, also evaluated whether any changes occurred to our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such control. Based on that evaluation, there have been no material changes to internal controls over financial reporting.
