Note 9: Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we consolidated 4 variable interest entities (“VIEs”), respectively, that issued non-recourse debt backed by pledged assets consisting primarily of a pool of timeshare financing receivables which is without recourse to us. We are the primary beneficiaries of these VIEs as we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect their economic performance. We are also the servicer of these timeshare financing receivables and we are required to replace or repurchase timeshare financing receivables that are in default at their outstanding principal amounts. Additionally, we have the obligation to absorb their losses and the right to receive benefits that could be significant to them. Only the assets of our VIEs are available to settle the obligations of the respective entities.

Our condensed consolidated balance sheets included the assets and liabilities of these entities, which primarily consisted of the following:
