Wyndham Destinations completes $450 Million term securitization

Wyndham Destinations, Inc. announced today that it has completed a term securitization transaction involving the issuance of $450 million of asset-backed notes. Sierra Timeshare 2019-2 Receivables Funding LLC issued approximately $188 million of Class A Notes, approximately $116 million of Class B Notes, approximately $101 million of Class C Notes, and approximately $45 million of Class D Notes. The Class A Notes have a coupon of 2.59%, the Class B Notes have a coupon of 2.82%, the Class C Notes have a coupon of 3.12%, and the Class D Notes have a coupon of 4.54% for an overall weighted average coupon of 2.96%. The advance rate for this transaction was 98%.

“Our second offering of 2019 was very well received by the market,” said Michael Hug, the chief financial officer of Wyndham Destinations. “The combination of strong demand and a lower benchmark rate allowed us to upsize the transaction by $50 million to $450 million while tightening the transaction by 61 basis points when compared to our last Sierra transaction in March of 2019. The coupon of 2.96% was the lowest since the Sierra 2016-3 issuance.”

Sierra Timeshare 2019-2 Receivables Funding LLC is an indirect subsidiary of Wyndham Destinations. The transaction was completed in reliance upon Rule 144A and Regulation S as a placement of securities not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities law. All of such securities having been sold, this announcement of their sale appears as a matter of record only.
