Discussion of Results ? Fourth Quarter 2011 Consolidated Operating Results
Consolidated revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $99.5 million, an increase of 6.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2010.
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was $9.0 million, an increase of $2.6 million from $6.4 million for the same period of 2010. Net income growth for the 2011 period reflects an increase in pre-tax income of $2.9 million primarily resulting from higher gross profit of $3.6 million and interest income of $0.3 million, partly offset by increases in other operating expenses of $1.2 million. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.16 compared to diluted EPS of $0.11 for the same period of 2010.
Adjusted EBITDA was $33.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, compared to $30.0 million for the same period of 2010.
Discussion of Results ? Full Year 2011 Consolidated Operating Results
Consolidated revenue for the full year ended December 31, 2011 was $428.8 million, an increase of 4.7% from $409.4 million for 2010.
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $41.1 million or $0.71 of diluted EPS, compared to $42.4 million or $0.73 for the same period of 2010. The decrease in net income and EPS reflects lower Membership and Exchange segment pre-tax income of $3.9 million primarily resulting from lower gross profit at Interval, partly offset by a $1.0 million increase in pre-tax income from our Management and Rental segment. The decrease in gross profit at Interval is largely due to an increase in the cost of Getaway sales as a result of changes in inventory mix.
Business Segment Results
Membership and Exchange
The Membership and Exchange segment is predominantly comprised of Interval International (Interval) which provides membership and leisure/vacation services to the individual members of its exchange networks and affinity groups, as well as related services to developers of vacation ownership resorts. As of December 31, 2011, the Interval Network includes over 2,600 resorts located in more than 75 countries.
Membership and Exchange segment revenue for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2011, was $79.4 million and $349.4 million, respectively. For the full year 2011, Interval Network membership fee and transaction revenue were $129.5 million and $192.3 million, respectively, representing a decrease of 0.3% and an increase of 0.7%, respectively, over the prior year. Year-over-year, average revenue per member increased slightly to $42.05, or 4.0%, in the fourth quarter and increased to $182.71, or 0.7%, for the full year, primarily reflecting increased pricing and a shift in membership mix.
At December 31, 2011, the Membership and Exchange segment had approximately two million members enrolled in its various membership programs, including the Interval Network, Trading Places International (TPI), and other private label programs. The Interval Network had approximately 1.8 million active members, a decrease of 1.3% from December 31, 2010.
Membership and Exchange Adjusted EBITDA was $31.3 million and $143.2 million in the fourth quarter and full year 2011, respectively, representing an increase of 10.4% and a decrease of 1.7% over the segment?s Adjusted EBITDA of $28.3 million and $145.8 million in the fourth quarter and full year 2010, respectively.
Throughout 2011, Interval renewed strategic agreements with key clients and affiliated 71 new vacation ownership resorts in domestic and international markets. In 2011, over 80% of all new affiliations were located in non-US locations.
Management and Rental
The Management and Rental segment, as of December 31, 2011, consisted primarily of Aston Hotels & Resorts, LLC and Maui Condo and Home, LLC (Aston) and the management and rental business of TPI.
Management and Rental segment revenue for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2011, was $20.1 million and $79.4 million, respectively, including $8.2 million and $32.4 million of management fee and rental revenue (defined below).
Year-over-year, management fee and rental revenue grew by 30.2% for the fourth quarter and 42.9% for the full year ended December 31, 2011. The improvement was primarily driven by the inclusion of revenue from TPI for a full year and an increase in revenue per available room (?RevPAR?) at Aston. Aston RevPAR for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $111.82 compared to $99.79 for the same period in 2010 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $111.43 compared to $95.79 in 2010, resulting from both a higher average daily rate and improved occupancy rates.
Management and Rental segment Adjusted EBITDA was $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of 26.1% from the prior year period. Management and Rental segment Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2011 was $7.8 million, an increase of 35% from Adjusted EBITDA of $5.8 million for the same period in 2010.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
As of December 31, 2011, ILG?s cash and cash equivalents totaled $195.5 million, compared to $180.5 million as of December 31, 2010. As of December 31, 2011, the Company?s total debt outstanding was $340.1 million, net of unamortized discount, compared to $357.6 million as of December 31, 2010.
For the full year 2011, ILG?s capital expenditures totaled $13.0 million, or 3.0% of revenue. Net cash provided by operating activities was $95.9 million and free cash flow was $82.9 million.

The Board of Directors of Interval Leisure Group has authorized a regular quarterly dividend of $0.10 per outstanding share of the Company?s common stock. The dividend is payable April 18, 2012, to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 2, 2012.
Presentation of Financial Information
ILG management believes that the presentation of non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) financial measures, including, among others, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, serves to enhance the understanding of ILG?s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to and not as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, Adjusted EBITDA (with certain additional add-backs) is used to calculate compliance with certain financial covenants in ILG?s credit agreement. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve the transparency of our disclosures, provide meaningful presentations 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 measures may also be useful in comparing our results to those of other companies; however, our calculations may differ from the calculations of these measures used by other companies. More information about the non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations of GAAP results to the non-GAAP measures, is available in the financial tables that accompany this press release.
