FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following table shows the carrying values and the estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments, determined in accordance with the authoritative guidance for disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The table excludes Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Accounts and contracts receivable, deposits included in Other assets, Accounts payable, Advance deposits, Accrued liabilities, and derivative instruments, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.
_________________________ (1)Prior period amounts have not been adjusted to reflect our adoption of ASU 2020-06 under the modified retrospective method. See “Footnote 2” “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for information on our adoption of ASU 2020-06. Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable
We estimate the fair value of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have been securitized using a discounted cash flow model. We believe this is comparable to the model that an independent third party would use in the current market. Our model uses default rates, prepayment rates, coupon rates, and loan terms for our securitized vacation ownership notes receivable portfolio as key drivers of risk and relative value to determine the fair value of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3. Due to factors that impact the general marketability of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized, as well as current market conditions, we bifurcate our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable at each balance sheet date into those eligible and not eligible for securitization using criteria applicable to current securitization transactions in the asset-backed securities (“ABS”) market. Generally, vacation ownership notes receivable are considered not eligible for securitization if any of the following attributes are present: (1) payments are greater than 30 days past due; (2) the first payment has not been received; or (3) the collateral is located in Asia or Europe. In some cases, eligibility may also be determined based on the credit score of the borrower, the remaining term of the loans and other similar factors that may reflect investor demand in a securitization transaction or the cost to effectively securitize the vacation ownership notes receivable. The table above shows the bifurcation of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized into those eligible and not eligible for securitization based upon the aforementioned eligibility criteria. We estimate the fair value of the portion of our vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized that we believe will ultimately be securitized in the same manner as vacation ownership notes receivable that have been securitized. We value the remaining vacation ownership notes receivable that have not been securitized at their carrying value, rather than using our pricing model. We believe that the carrying value of these particular vacation ownership notes receivable approximates fair value because the stated, or otherwise imputed, interest rates of these loans are generally consistent with current market rates and the reserve for these vacation ownership notes receivable appropriately accounts for risks in default rates, prepayment rates, discount rates, and loan terms. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3. Other Assets Other assets include $76 million of COLI policies acquired on the lives of certain participants in the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Deferred Compensation Plan that are held in a rabbi trust. The carrying value of the COLI policies is equal to their cash surrender value (Level 2 inputs). Securitized Debt We generate cash flow estimates by modeling all bond tranches for our active vacation ownership notes receivable securitization transactions, with consideration for the collateral specific to each tranche. The key drivers in our analysis include default rates, prepayment rates, bond interest rates, and other structural factors, which we use to estimate the projected cash flows. In order to estimate market credit spreads by rating, we obtain indicative credit spreads from investment banks that actively issue and facilitate the market for vacation ownership securities and determine an average credit spread by rating level of the different tranches. We then apply those estimated market spreads to swap rates in order to estimate an underlying discount rate for calculating the fair value of the active bonds payable. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3. Senior Notes We estimate the fair value of our senior notes using quoted market prices as of the last trading day for the quarter; however these notes have only a limited trading history and volume, and, as such, this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which these notes could be retired or transferred. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 2. Term Loan We estimate the fair value of our Term Loan (as defined in Footnote 16 “Debt”) using quotes from securities dealers as of the last trading day for the quarter; however this loan has only a limited trading history and volume, and as such this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the Term Loan could be retired or transferred. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3. Convertible Notes We estimate the fair value of our convertible notes using quoted market prices as of the last trading day for the quarter; however these notes have only a limited trading history and volume, and as such this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the convertible notes could be retired or transferred. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 2. The 2022 Convertible Notes (as defined in Footnote 16 “Debt”) matured on September 15, 2022, and were repaid in full during the third quarter of 2022. See Footnote 16 “Debt” for further information on our convertible notes. Non-Interest Bearing Note Payable The carrying value of our non-interest bearing note payable issued in connection with the acquisition of vacation ownership units located in Bali, Indonesia approximates fair value. We concluded that this fair value measurement should be categorized within Level 3.
