HYATT HOTELS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(amounts in millions of dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

(Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Hyatt Hotels Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively "Hyatt Hotels Corporation") provide hospitality and other services on a worldwide basis through the development, ownership, operation, management, franchising, and licensing of hospitality and wellness-related businesses. We develop, own, operate, manage, franchise, license, or provide services to a portfolio of properties, consisting of full service hotels, select service hotels, resorts, and other properties, including branded spas and fitness studios, timeshare, fractional, and other forms of residential, vacation, and condominium ownership units. At September 30, 2019, (i) we operated or franchised 434 full service hotels, comprising 151,995 rooms throughout the world, (ii) we operated or franchised 453 select service hotels, comprising 64,500 rooms, of which 390 hotels are located in the United States, and (iii) our portfolio included 6 franchised all-inclusive Hyatt-branded resorts, comprising 2,403 rooms, and 3 destination wellness resorts, comprising 410 rooms. At September 30, 2019, our portfolio of properties operated in 63 countries around the world. Additionally, through strategic relationships, we provide certain reservation and/or loyalty program services to hotels that are unaffiliated with our hotel portfolio and which operate under other tradenames or marks owned by such hotel or licensed by third parties.

As used in these Notes and throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, (i) the terms "Hyatt," "Company," "we," "us," or "our" mean Hyatt Hotels Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, (ii) the term "properties" refers to hotels, resorts, and other properties, including branded spas and fitness studios, and residential, vacation, and condominium ownership units that we develop, own, operate, manage, franchise, or to which we provide services or license our trademarks, (iii) "Hyatt portfolio of properties" or "portfolio of properties" refers to hotels and other properties that we develop, own, operate, manage, franchise, license, or provide services to, including under the Park Hyatt, Miraval, Grand Hyatt, Alila, Andaz, The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, Destination, Hyatt Regency, Hyatt, Hyatt Ziva, Hyatt Zilara, Thompson Hotels, Hyatt Centric, Caption by Hyatt, Joie de Vivre, Hyatt House, Hyatt Place, tommie, Hyatt Residence Club and Exhale brands, (iv) the term "worldwide hotel portfolio" includes our full and select service hotels, and (v) the term "worldwide property portfolio" includes our wellness and all-inclusive resorts, branded spas and fitness studios, and residential, vacation, and condominium ownership units in addition to our worldwide hotel portfolio.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information or footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. As a result, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (the "2018 Form 10-K").

We have eliminated all intercompany accounts and transactions in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We consolidate entities under our control, including entities where we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

Management believes the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are all of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adopted Accounting Standards

Leases—In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 ("ASU 2016-02"), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to record lease contracts on the balance sheet by recognizing a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability with certain practical expedients available. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make fixed minimum lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of fixed minimum lease

Table of Contents

payments over the lease term, including optional periods for which it is reasonably certain the renewal option will be exercised.

In July 2018, the FASB released Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-11 ("ASU 2018-11"), Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, providing entities with an additional optional transition method. The provisions of ASU 2016-02, and all related ASUs, are effective for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted.

We adopted ASU 2016-02 utilizing the optional transition approach under ASU 2018-11 and applied the package of practical expedients beginning January 1, 2019. As a result of utilizing the optional transition method, our reporting for periods prior to January 1, 2019 continue to be reported in accordance with Leases (Topic 840).

We elected the following additional practical expedients: (i) for office space, land, and hotel leases, we do not separate the lease and nonlease components, which primarily relate to common area maintenance and utilities, (ii) we combine lease and nonlease components for those leases where we are the lessor, and (iii) we exclude all leases that are twelve months or less from the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

For leases in place upon adoption, we used the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 in determining the incremental borrowing rate ("IBR"). For the initial measurement of the lease liabilities for leases commencing on or after January 1, 2019, the IBR at the lease commencement date was applied.

For operating leases, the adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in the initial recognition of ROU assets of $512 million and related lease liabilities of $452 million on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at January 1, 2019. Upon adoption, we reclassified $103 million of intangibles, net related to below market leases and $49 million of deferred rent and other lease liabilities to the operating ROU assets. The net tax impact upon adoption was insignificant. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not significantly impact our accounting for finance leases or for those leases where we are the lessor. Additionally, the adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not materially affect our condensed consolidated statements of income or our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

The impact on our condensed consolidated balance sheet upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 was as follows:

Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software—In August 2018, the FASB released Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15 ("ASU 2018-15"), Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The provisions of ASU 2018-15 are to be applied using a prospective or retrospective approach and are effective for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We early adopted ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis which did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Future Adoption of Accounting Standards

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses—In June 2016, the FASB released Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 ("ASU 2016-13"), Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing impairment model for most financial assets from an incurred loss impairment model to a current expected credit loss model, which requires an entity to recognize allowances for credit losses equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows the entity does not expect to collect. ASU 2016-13 also requires credit losses relating to available-for-sale ("AFS") debt securities to be recognized through an allowance for credit losses. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach and are effective for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.

While we continue to evaluate the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13, we do not expect a material impact upon adoption related to receivables at our owned and leased properties, AFS debt securities, and debt repayment guarantees. We are continuing to evaluate other potential impacts on our condensed consolidated financial statements, including the impact on our remaining receivables, held-to-maturity ("HTM") debt securities, and financing receivables.

Contract Balances

Our contract assets were $2 million and insignificant at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. At September 30, 2019, the contract assets were included in receivables, net. As our profitability hurdles are generally calculated on a full-year basis, we expect our contract asset balance to be insignificant at year end.

Contract liabilities are comprised of the following:



	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Deferred revenue related to the loyalty program	$	657	$	596
Advanced deposits	77		81
Initial fees received from franchise owners	39		35
Deferred revenue related to system-wide services	11		7
Other deferred revenue	91		111
Total contract liabilities	$	875	$	830

Ending balance, September 30	$	875		$	765

Revenue recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of each year was $80 million and $81 million, respectively. Revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of each year was $318 million and $299 million, respectively. This revenue primarily relates to the loyalty program, which is recognized net of redemption reimbursements paid to third parties, and advanced deposits.

Revenue Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Contracted revenue expected to be recognized in future periods was approximately $130 million at September 30, 2019, of which we expect to recognize approximately 20% as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.

We did not estimate revenues expected to be recognized related to our unsatisfied performance obligations for the following:


•	Deferred revenue related to the loyalty program and revenue from base and incentive management fees as the revenue is allocated to a wholly unperformed performance obligation in a series;


•	Revenues related to royalty fees as they are considered sales-based royalty fees;


•	Revenues received for free nights granted through our co-branded credit cards as the awards are required to be redeemed within 12 months; and


•	Revenues related to advanced bookings at owned and leased hotels as each stay has a duration of 12 months or less.

4. DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES

Equity Method Investments

Equity method investments were $229 million and $233 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $8 million of gains in equity losses from unconsolidated hospitality ventures on our condensed consolidated statements of income resulting from sales activity related to certain equity method investments within our owned and leased hotels segment. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we received $2 million and $25 million of sales proceeds, respectively.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $6 million and $7 million of impairment charges, respectively, primarily related to one unconsolidated hospitality venture in equity losses from unconsolidated hospitality ventures on our condensed consolidated statements of income as the carrying value was in excess of fair value. The fair value was determined to be a Level Three fair value measure, and the impairment was deemed other-than-temporary.

Table of Contents

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized $1 million and $11 million of net gains, respectively, in equity losses from unconsolidated hospitality ventures on our condensed consolidated statements of income resulting from sales activity related to certain equity method investments within our owned and leased hotels segment. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we received $7 million and $17 million of sales proceeds, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we completed an asset acquisition of our partner's interest in certain unconsolidated hospitality ventures in Brazil for a net purchase price of approximately $4 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized $16 million of impairment charges related to these investments in equity losses from unconsolidated hospitality ventures on our condensed consolidated statements of income as the carrying value was in excess of fair value. The fair value was determined to be a Level Three fair value measure, and the impairment was deemed other-than-temporary.

The following table presents summarized financial information for all unconsolidated hospitality ventures in which we hold an investment accounted for under the equity method:



	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,

Marketable Securities

We hold marketable securities with readily determinable fair values to fund certain operating programs and for investment purposes. Additionally, we periodically transfer available cash and cash equivalents to purchase marketable securities for investment purposes.

Marketable Securities Held to Fund Operating Programs—Marketable securities held to fund operating programs, which are recorded at fair value and included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, were as follows:



	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018

Our captive insurance companies hold marketable securities which are classified as AFS debt securities and are invested in U.S. government agencies, time deposits, and corporate debt securities. We classify these investments as current or long-term, based on their contractual maturity dates, which range from 2019 through 2024.

Marketable Securities Held for Investment Purposes—Marketable securities held for investment purposes, which are recorded at fair value and included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, were as follows:



	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
Interest-bearing money market funds	$	202		$	14
Common shares of Playa N.V. (Note 9)	95			87

Less: current portion of marketable securities held for investment purposes included in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments	(239		)	(114		)
Marketable securities held for investment purposes included in other assets	$	95		$	87

We hold common shares of Playa Hotels & Resorts N.V. ("Playa N.V.") which are accounted for as an equity security with a readily determinable fair value as we do not have the ability to significantly influence the operations of the entity. The fair value of the common shares is classified as Level One in the fair value hierarchy as we are able to obtain market available pricing information. The remeasurement of our investment at fair value resulted in $1 million of unrealized gains and $14 million of unrealized losses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, and $8 million of unrealized gains and $14 million of unrealized losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (see Note 19). We did not sell any shares of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Other Investments

HTM Debt Securities—At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we held $56 million and $49 million, respectively, of investments in HTM debt securities, which are investments in third-party entities that own certain of our hotels and are recorded within other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The securities are mandatorily redeemable between 2020 and 2025. The amortized cost of our investments approximates fair value. We estimated the fair value of our investments using internally developed discounted cash flow models based on current market inputs for similar types of arrangements. Based upon the lack of available market data, our investments are classified as Level Three within the fair value hierarchy. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on the selection of appropriate discount rates. Fluctuations in these assumptions could result in different estimates of fair value.

Equity Securities Without a Readily Determinable Fair Value—At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we held $9 million of investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, which represent investments in entities where we do not have the ability to significantly influence the operations of the entity. These investments are recorded within other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Due to ongoing operating cash flow shortfalls in the business underlying an equity security during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized a $22 million impairment charge for our full investment balance in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (see Note 19) as the carrying

value was in excess of the fair value. The fair value was determined to be a Level Three fair value measure. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the entity in which we held our investment disposed of its assets.

6. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

Acquisitions

Land—During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we acquired $15 million of land through an asset acquisition from an unrelated third party to develop a hotel in Austin, Texas and subsequently signed a purchase and sale agreement to sell the land and related construction in progress. At September 30, 2019, these assets are classified as held for sale within our owned and leased hotels segment on our condensed consolidated balance sheet, and the sale closed subsequent to September 30, 2019.

Two Roads Hospitality LLC—During the year ended December 31, 2018, we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Two Roads Hospitality LLC ("Two Roads") in a business combination for a purchase price of $405 million. The transaction also included potential additional consideration including (i) up to $96 million if the sellers completed specific actions with respect to certain of the acquired management agreements within 120 days from the date of acquisition and (ii) up to $8 million in the event of the execution of certain potential new management agreements related to the development of certain potential new deals previously identified and generated by the sellers or affiliates of the sellers within one year of the closing of the transaction. One of the sellers is indirectly owned by a limited partnership affiliated with the brother of our Executive Chairman.

We closed on the transaction on November 30, 2018 and paid cash of $415 million, net of $37 million cash acquired. Cash paid at closing was inclusive of a $36 million payment of the aforementioned additional consideration and $4 million of other purchase price adjustments. Related to the $68 million of potential additional consideration, we recorded a $57 million contingent liability in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018, which represented our estimate of the remaining expected consideration to be paid.

Net assets acquired were determined as follows:



Cash paid, net of cash acquired	$	415
Cash acquired	37
Contingent consideration liability	57
Net assets acquired at December 31, 2018	$	509
Post-acquisition working capital adjustments	(2		)
Net assets acquired at September 30, 2019	$	507

As it relates to the $57 million contingent consideration liability recorded at December 31, 2018, of which $4 million remains at September 30, 2019, the following occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:


•	The sellers completed the aforementioned specific actions with respect to certain management agreements, and we paid $24 million of additional consideration to the sellers.


•	For those management agreements where the specific actions were not completed or payment is no longer probable, we released $2 million and $29 million of the contingent liability to other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively (see Note 19).

The acquisition includes management and license agreements for operating and pipeline hotels primarily across North America and Asia under five hospitality brands. Our condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 reflect preliminary estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values, which are classified as Level Three in the fair value hierarchy, are based on information that was available as of the date of acquisition and estimated using discounted future cash flow models and relief from royalty method, including revenue projections based on the expected contract terms and long-term growth rates.

During 2019, the estimated fair values of assets and liabilities were revised as we refined our analysis of contract terms and renewal assumptions which affected the underlying cash flows in the valuation. This resulted in a $34 million reduction in intangibles, net with an offsetting increase in goodwill on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2019. We continue to evaluate the underlying inputs and assumptions used in our valuation and accordingly, these estimates are subject to change during the one year measurement period.

(1) Includes intangibles attributable to the Destination, Alila, and Thompson brands.

(2) Amortized over useful lives of 1 to 19 years, with a weighted-average useful life of approximately 12 years.

(3) The goodwill, of which $152 million is tax deductible, is attributable to the growth opportunities Hyatt expects to realize by expanding into new markets and enhancing guest experiences through a distinctive collection of lifestyle brands and recorded in the Americas management and franchising segment.

(4) Includes $13 million of prior year tax liabilities relating to certain foreign filing positions, including $4 million of interest and penalties. We recorded an offsetting indemnification asset which we expect to collect under contractual arrangements.

(5) See Note 8 for impairment discussion.

Hyatt Regency Phoenix—During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we completed an asset acquisition of Hyatt Regency Phoenix from an unrelated third party for a purchase price of approximately $139 million, net of $1 million of proration adjustments. Assets acquired and recorded in our owned and leased hotels segment consist primarily of $136 million of property and equipment. The purchase of Hyatt Regency Phoenix was designated as replacement property in a like-kind exchange (see "Like-Kind Exchange Agreements" below).

Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa—During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we completed an asset acquisition of Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa from an unrelated third party for a net purchase price of approximately $120 million. Assets acquired and recorded in our owned and leased hotels segment consist primarily of $119 million of property and equipment. The purchase of Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa was designated as replacement property in a like-kind exchange (see "Like-Kind Exchange Agreements" below).

Dispositions

Hyatt Regency Atlanta—During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we sold Hyatt Regency Atlanta to an unrelated third party for approximately $346 million, net of closing costs and proration adjustments, and accounted for the transaction as an asset disposition. We entered into a long-term management agreement for the property upon sale. The sale resulted in a $272 million pre-tax gain which was recognized in gains on sales of real estate on our condensed consolidated statements of income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. The operating results and financial position of this hotel prior to the sale remain within our owned and leased hotels segment.

Land and Lease Assignment—During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we sold the property adjacent to Grand Hyatt San Francisco and assigned the related Apple store lease to an unrelated third party for approximately $115 million, net of closing costs and proration adjustments, and accounted for the transaction as an asset disposition. The sale resulted in a $101 million pre-tax gain which was recognized in gains on sales of real estate on our condensed consolidated statements of income during the three and nine months ended

Table of Contents

September 30, 2019. The operating results and financial position of this property prior to the sale remain within our owned and leased hotels segment.

Hyatt Regency Mexico City—During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we sold the shares of the entity which owns Hyatt Regency Mexico City, an investment in an unconsolidated hospitality venture, and adjacent land, a portion of which will be developed as Park Hyatt Mexico City, ("HRMC transaction") to an unrelated third party for approximately $405 million and accounted for the transaction as an asset disposition. We entered into long-term management agreements for the properties upon sale. We received $360 million of proceeds and issued $46 million of unsecured financing receivables which were repaid in full during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (see Note 5). The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $240 million which was recognized in gains on sales of real estate on our condensed consolidated statements of income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. In connection with the disposition, we recognized a $21 million goodwill impairment charge in asset impairments on our condensed consolidated statements of income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The assets disposed represented the entirety of the related reporting unit and therefore, no business operations remained to support the related goodwill, which was therefore impaired. The operating results and financial position prior to the sale remain within our owned and leased hotels segment.

Grand Hyatt San Francisco, Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort, and Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa—During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we sold Grand Hyatt San Francisco, Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort together with adjacent land, and Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa to an unrelated third party as a portfolio for approximately $992 million, net of closing costs and proration adjustments, and accounted for the transaction as an asset disposition. We entered into long-term management agreements for the properties upon sale. The sale resulted in a $531 million pre-tax gain which was recognized in gains on sales of real estate on our condensed consolidated statements of income during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The operating results and financial position of these hotels prior to the sale remain within our owned and leased hotels segment. Although we concluded the disposal of these properties did not qualify as discontinued operations, the disposal was considered to be material. Pre-tax net income attributable to the three properties was $15 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Land Held for Development—A wholly owned subsidiary held undeveloped land in Los Cabos, Mexico. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an unrelated third party invested in the subsidiary in exchange for a 50% ownership interest resulting in derecognition of the subsidiary. Our remaining interest was recorded at a fair value of $45 million as an equity method investment.

Like-Kind Exchange Agreements

Periodically, we enter into like-kind exchange agreements upon the disposition or acquisition of certain properties. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, the proceeds from the sales are placed into an escrow account administered by a qualified intermediary and are unavailable for our use until released. The proceeds are recorded as restricted cash on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and released (i) if they are utilized as part of a like-kind exchange agreement, (ii) if we do not identify a suitable replacement property within 45 days after the agreement date, or (iii) when a like-kind exchange agreement is not completed within the remaining allowable time period.

In conjunction with the sale of the property adjacent to Grand Hyatt San Francisco during the three months ended September 30, 2019, $115 million of proceeds were held as restricted for use in a potential like-kind exchange.

In conjunction with the sale of Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, $221 million of proceeds were held as restricted for use in a potential like-kind exchange. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, $198 million of these proceeds were utilized to acquire Hyatt Regency Phoenix and Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa and the remaining $23 million were released.

7. LEASES

Lessee—We primarily lease land, buildings, office space, spas and fitness centers, and equipment. We determine if an arrangement is an operating or finance lease at inception. For our hotel management agreements, we apply judgment in order to determine whether the contract is accounted for as a lease or management agreement based on the specific facts and circumstances of each agreement. In evaluating whether an agreement constitutes a lease, we review the contractual terms to determine which party obtains both the economic benefits and control of the assets. In arrangements where we control the assets and obtain the economic benefits, we account for the contract as a lease.

Certain of our leases include options to extend the lease term by 1 to 99 years. We include lease extension options in our operating ROU assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the options. The range of extension options included in our operating ROU assets and lease liabilities is approximately 1 to 20 years. Our lease agreements do not contain any significant residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

As our leases do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, we use our estimated IBR to determine the present value of our lease payments and apply a portfolio approach. We apply judgment in estimating the IBR including factors related to currency risk and our credit risk. We also give consideration to our recent debt issuances as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics when determining our IBR.

Our operating leases may include the following terms: (i) fixed minimum lease payments, (ii) variable lease payments based on a percentage of the hotel's profitability measure, as defined in the lease, (iii) lease payments equal to the greater of a minimum or variable lease payments based on a percentage of the hotel's profitability measure, as defined in the lease, or (iv) lease payments adjusted for changes in an index or market value. Future lease payments that are contingent are not included in the measurement of the operating lease liability or in the future maturities table below.

Total lease expense related to short-term leases and finance leases was insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. A summary of operating lease expense is as follows:



	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,

10. DEBT

Long-term debt, net of current maturities, was $1,612 million and $1,623 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Senior Notes—During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we issued $400 million of 4.375% senior notes due 2028, at an issue price of 99.866% (the "2028 Notes"). We received $396 million of net proceeds from the sale of the 2028 Notes, after deducting $4 million of underwriting discounts and other offering expenses. We used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2028 Notes to redeem our 6.875% senior notes due 2019 (the "2019 Notes"), and the remainder was used for general corporate purposes. Interest on the 2028 Notes is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2019.

The 2028 Notes, together with our $250 million of 5.375% senior notes due 2021 (the "2021 Notes"), $350 million of 3.375% senior notes due 2023 (the "2023 Notes"), and $400 million of 4.850% senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"), are collectively referred to as the "Senior Notes."

Debt Redemption—During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we redeemed all of our outstanding 2019 Notes, of which there was $196 million of aggregate principal outstanding, at a redemption price of approximately $203 million, which was calculated in accordance with the terms of the 2019 Notes and included principal and accrued interest plus a make-whole premium. The $7 million loss on extinguishment of debt was recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (see Note 19).

Revolving Credit Facility—During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we refinanced our $1.5 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders, extending the maturity of the facility to January 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had $180 million of borrowings and repayments on our revolving credit facility. The weighted-average interest rate on these borrowings was 3.46% at September 30, 2019. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had no balance outstanding. At September 30, 2019, we had $1.5 billion available on our revolving credit facility.

Fair Value—We estimated the fair value of debt, excluding finance leases, which consists of our Senior Notes, bonds, and other long-term debt. Our Senior Notes and bonds are classified as Level Two due to the use and weighting of multiple market inputs in the final price of the security. We estimated the fair value of other debt instruments using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market inputs for similar types of arrangements. Based upon the lack of available market data, we have classified our revolving credit facility and other debt instruments as Level Three. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on the selection of appropriate discount rates. Fluctuations in these assumptions will result in different estimates of fair value.

(2) Excludes $12 million of capital lease obligations and $16 million of unamortized discounts and deferred financing fees.

Interest Rate Locks—At September 30, 2019, we had outstanding interest rate locks with $275 million notional value and mandatory settlement dates of 2021. The interest rate locks hedge a portion of the risk of changes in the benchmark interest rate associated with long-term debt we anticipate issuing in the future. The outstanding derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges and deemed highly effective both at inception and at September 30, 2019.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $13 million and $30 million of pre-tax losses, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized $3 million and $2 million of pre-tax gains, respectively, in unrealized gains (losses) on derivative activity on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $34 million and $4 million of liabilities related to these derivative instruments, respectively, recorded in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimated the fair values of interest rate locks, which are classified as Level Two in the fair value hierarchy, using discounted cash flow models. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on forward and discount curves.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we settled interest rate locks with $225 million notional value upon issuance of the 2028 Notes.

12. INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 were 26.9% and 7.7%, respectively. The effective income tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 were 25.0% and 21.2%, respectively. Our effective tax rate increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to the low effective tax rate on the HRMC transaction in 2018.

We are currently under field exam by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for tax years 2015 through 2017. U.S. tax years 2009 through 2011 are before the U.S. Tax Court concerning the tax treatment of the loyalty program. Additionally, U.S. tax years 2012 through 2014 are pending the outcome of the issue currently in U.S. Tax Court. If the IRS' position to include loyalty program contributions as taxable income to the Company is upheld, it would result in an income tax payment of $188 million (including $44 million of estimated interest, net of federal tax benefit) for all assessed years that would be partially offset by a deferred tax asset. As future tax benefits will be recognized at the reduced U.S. corporate income tax rate, $67 million of the payment and related interest would

have an impact on the effective tax rate, if recognized. We believe we have an adequate uncertain tax liability recorded in connection with this matter.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various commitments, guarantees, surety bonds, and letter of credit agreements, which are discussed below:

Commitments—At September 30, 2019, we are committed, under certain conditions, to lend or provide certain consideration to, or invest in, various business ventures up to $395 million, net of any related letters of credit, including a commitment to purchase land and a hotel under construction in Portland, Oregon from the developer for a remaining purchase price of approximately $140 million upon substantial completion of construction.

Performance Guarantees—Certain of our contractual agreements with third-party hotel owners require us to guarantee payments to the owners if specified levels of operating profit are not achieved by their hotels.

Our most significant performance guarantee relates to four managed hotels in France that we began managing in the second quarter of 2013 ("the four managed hotels in France"), which has a term of seven years and less than one year remaining. This guarantee has a maximum cap, but does not have an annual cap. The remaining maximum exposure related to our performance guarantees at September 30, 2019 was $252 million, of which €180 million ($196 million using exchange rates at September 30, 2019) was related to the four managed hotels in France.

We had $13 million and $47 million of total net performance guarantee liabilities at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which included $4 million and $25 million recorded in other long-term liabilities and $9 million and $22 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively.

Additionally, we enter into certain management contracts where we have the right, but not an obligation, to make payments to certain hotel owners if their hotels do not achieve specified levels of operating profit. If we choose not to fund the shortfall, the hotel owner has the option to terminate the management contract. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no amounts recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to these performance test clauses.

Debt Repayment and Other Guarantees—We enter into various debt repayment and other guarantees in order to assist property owners and unconsolidated hospitality ventures in obtaining third-party financing or to obtain more favorable borrowing terms. Included within debt repayment and other guarantees are the following:



Property description	Maximum potential future payments		Maximum exposure net of recoverability from third parties		Other long-term liabilities recorded at September 30, 2019		Other long-term liabilities recorded at December 31, 2018		Year of guarantee expiration

Other (2), (5)	10		5		2		19		2022
Total	$	444	$	267	$	33	$	51

(1) Debt repayment guarantee is denominated in Indian rupees and translated using exchange rates at September 30, 2019. We have the contractual right to recover amounts funded from an unconsolidated hospitality venture, which is a related party. We expect our maximum exposure to be $85 million, taking into account our partner's 50% ownership interest in the unconsolidated hospitality venture. Under certain events or conditions, we have the right to force the sale of the properties in order to recover amounts funded.

(2) We have agreements with our unconsolidated hospitality venture partners, the respective hotel owners, or other third parties to recover certain amounts funded under the debt repayment guarantee; the recoverability mechanism may be in the form of cash, financing receivable, or HTM debt security.

(3) If certain funding thresholds are met or if certain events occur, we have the ability to assume control of the property. With respect to properties in Brazil, this right only exists for the residential property.

(4) In conjunction with the debt repayment guarantees, we are subject to completion guarantees whereby the parties agree to substantially complete the construction of the project by a specified date. In the event of default, we are obligated to complete construction using the funds available from the outstanding loan. Any additional funds paid by us are subject to partial recovery in the form of cash. At September 30, 2019, the maximum potential future payments for the property in Massachusetts and the property in Oregon are $13 million and $12 million, respectively. After consideration of recoverability from third parties, our maximum exposure is insignificant for both the property in Massachusetts and the property in Oregon at September 30, 2019.

(5) At December 31, 2018, other-long term liabilities included a debt repayment guarantee for a hotel property in Washington State. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the debt was refinanced, and we are no longer a guarantor. As a result, we recognized a $15 million release of our debt repayment guarantee liability in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (see Note 19).

At September 30, 2019, we are not aware of, nor have we received notification that hotel owners are not current on their debt service obligations where we have provided a debt repayment guarantee.

Guarantee Liabilities Fair Value—We estimated the fair value of our guarantees to be $112 million and $128 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Based upon the lack of available market data, we have classified our guarantees as Level Three in the fair value hierarchy.

Table of Contents

Insurance—We obtain commercial insurance for potential losses for general liability, workers' compensation, automobile liability, employment practices, crime, property, cyber risk, and other miscellaneous coverages. A portion of the risk is retained on a self-insurance basis primarily through U.S.-based and licensed captive insurance companies that are wholly owned subsidiaries of Hyatt and generally insure our deductibles and retentions. Reserve requirements are established based on actuarial projections of ultimate losses. Reserves for losses in our captive insurance companies to be paid within 12 months are $40 million and $38 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and are classified within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, while reserves for losses in our captive insurance companies to be paid in future periods are $79 million and $78 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and are included in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Collective Bargaining Agreements—At September 30, 2019, approximately 22% of our U.S.-based employees were covered by various collective bargaining agreements, generally providing for basic pay rates, working hours, other conditions of employment, and orderly settlement of labor disputes. Certain employees are covered by union-sponsored, multi-employer pension and health plans pursuant to agreements between us and various unions. Generally, labor relations have been maintained in a normal and satisfactory manner, and we believe our employee relations are good.

Surety Bonds—Surety bonds issued on our behalf were $46 million at September 30, 2019 and primarily relate to workers' compensation, taxes, licenses, construction liens, and utilities related to our lodging operations.

Letters of Credit—Letters of credit outstanding on our behalf at September 30, 2019 were $286 million, which relate to our ongoing operations, hotel properties under development in the U.S., collateral for estimated insurance claims, and securitization of our performance under our debt repayment guarantees associated with the hotel properties in India and the residential property in Brazil, which are only called upon if we default on our guarantees. The letters of credit outstanding do not reduce the available capacity under our revolving credit facility (see Note 10).

Capital Expenditures—As part of our ongoing business operations, significant expenditures are required to complete renovation projects that have been approved.

Other—We act as general partner of various partnerships owning hotel properties that are subject to mortgage indebtedness. These mortgage agreements generally limit the lender's recourse to security interests in assets financed and/or other assets of the partnership(s) and/or the general partner(s) thereof.

In conjunction with financing obtained for our unconsolidated hospitality ventures, certain managed hotels, and other properties, we may provide standard indemnifications to the lender for loss, liability, or damage occurring as a result of our actions or actions of the other unconsolidated hospitality venture partners, respective hotel owners, or other third parties.

As a result of certain dispositions, we have agreed to provide customary indemnifications to third-party purchasers for certain liabilities incurred prior to sale and for breach of certain representations and warranties made during the sales process, such as representations of valid title, authority, and environmental issues that may not be limited by a contractual monetary amount. These indemnification agreements survive until the applicable statutes of limitation expire or until the agreed upon contract terms expire.

We are subject, from time to time, to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, and environmental matters, as well as commitments under contractual obligations. Many of these claims are covered under our current insurance programs, subject to deductibles. Although the ultimate liability for these matters cannot be determined at this point, based on information currently available, we do not expect the ultimate resolution of such claims and litigation to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we received a notice from the Indian tax authorities assessing additional service tax on our operations in India. We appealed this decision and do not believe a loss is probable, and therefore, we have not recognized a liability in connection with this matter. At September 30, 2019, our maximum exposure is not expected to exceed $18 million.

Share Repurchase—During 2018 and 2017, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $750 million and $1,250 million, respectively, of our common stock. These repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, at prices we deem appropriate and subject to market conditions, applicable law, and other factors deemed relevant in our sole discretion. The common stock repurchase program applies to our Class A and Class B common stock. The common stock repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares of common stock and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased 3,829,427 shares of common stock. The shares of common stock were repurchased at a weighted-average price of $73.08 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $280 million, excluding related insignificant expenses. The shares repurchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 represented approximately 4% of our total shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we entered into the following accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") program with a third-party financial institution to repurchase Class A shares:



	Total number of shares repurchased (1)	Weighted-average price per share		Total cash paid
May 2018 ASR	2,481,341	$	80.60	$	200
(1) The delivery of shares resulted in a reduction in weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we repurchased 8,560,012 shares of common stock, including settlement of the May 2018 ASR and 244,260 shares representing the settlement of an ASR program entered into during the fourth quarter of 2017 ("November 2017 ASR"). The shares of common stock were repurchased at a weighted-average price of $78.42 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $674 million, excluding related insignificant expenses. The aggregate purchase price includes $20 million of shares delivered in the settlement of the November 2017 ASR in 2018, for which payment was made during 2017. The shares repurchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 represented approximately 7% of our total shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2017.

The shares of Class A common stock repurchased on the open market were retired and returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares, while the shares of Class B common stock repurchased were retired and the total number of authorized Class B shares was reduced by the number of shares retired during the three months ended September 30, 2019 (see Note 16). At September 30, 2019, we had $388 million remaining under the share repurchase authorization.

15. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

As part of our Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"), we award Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs"), Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs"), and Performance Share Units ("PSUs") to certain employees. Compensation expense and unearned compensation presented below exclude amounts related to employees of our managed hotels and other employees whose payroll is reimbursed, as this expense has been and will continue to be reimbursed by our third-party hotel owners and is recognized within revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties and costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties on our condensed consolidated statements of income. Stock-based compensation expense included in selling, general, and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statements of income related to these awards was as follows:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
SARs	$	1	$	1	$	11	$	10
RSUs	2		2		13		14
PSUs	1		2		4		4
Total	$	4	$	5	$	28	$	28

SARs—During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we granted 643,989 SARs to employees with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $17.11. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we granted 504,760 SARs to employees with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $21.18.

The performance period applicable to such PSUs is a three year period beginning January 1, 2019 and ending December 31, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we granted 89,441 PSUs to our executive officers, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $82.10.

Our total unearned compensation for our stock-based compensation programs at September 30, 2019 was $2 million for SARs, $17 million for RSUs, and $10 million for PSUs, which will primarily be recognized in stock-based compensation expense over a weighted-average period of three years with respect to SARs and RSUs and two years with respect to PSUs.

16. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In addition to those included elsewhere in the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, related-party transactions entered into by us are summarized as follows:

Legal Services—A partner in a law firm that provided services to us throughout the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 is the brother-in-law of our Executive Chairman. We incurred $2 million of legal fees with this firm during each of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. We incurred $5 million of legal fees with this firm during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $2 million and insignificant amounts due to the law firm, respectively.

Equity Method Investments—We have equity method investments in entities that own properties for which we receive management or franchise fees. We recognized $5 million of fees for each of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. We recognized $15 million of fees for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. In addition, in some cases we provide loans (see Note 5) or guarantees (see Note 13) to these entities. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, we recognized $1 million and $2 million of income related to these guarantees, respectively. We recognized income related to these guarantees of $3 million and $5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $13 million and $17 million of receivables due from these properties, respectively. Our ownership interest in these unconsolidated hospitality ventures varies from 24% to 50%. See Note 4 for further details regarding these investments.

Table of Contents

Other Services—The brother of our Executive Chairman is affiliated with a limited partnership which has ownership interests in hotels from which we recorded management and franchise fees of $2 million and $4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. At both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had insignificant receivables due from these properties.

Class B Share Conversion—During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, 950,161 shares and 1,207,355 shares of Class B common stock were converted on a share-for-share basis into shares of our Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share. The shares of Class B common stock that were converted into shares of Class A common stock were retired, thereby reducing the shares of Class B common stock authorized and outstanding.

Class B Share Repurchase—During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased 677,384 shares of Class B common stock for a weighted-average price of $74.21 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50 million. The shares repurchased represented approximately 1% of our total shares of common stock outstanding prior to the repurchase. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we repurchased 2,427,000 shares of Class B common stock for a weighted-average price of $78.11 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $190 million. The shares repurchased represented approximately 2% of our total shares of common stock outstanding prior to the repurchase. The shares of Class B common stock were repurchased in privately negotiated transactions from trusts or limited partnerships owned indirectly by trusts for the benefit of certain Pritzker family members or private charitable organizations affiliated with certain Pritzker family members and were retired, thereby reducing the shares of Class B common stock authorized and outstanding by the repurchased share amount.

17. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our reportable segments are components of the business which are managed discretely and for which discrete financial information is reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to assess performance and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. Our CODM is our President and Chief Executive Officer. We define our reportable segments as follows:

•

Owned and leased hotels—This segment derives its earnings from owned and leased hotel properties located predominantly in the United States but also in certain international locations and for purposes of segment Adjusted EBITDA, includes our pro rata share of the Adjusted EBITDA of our unconsolidated hospitality ventures, based on our ownership percentage of each venture. Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany expenses related to management fees paid to the Company's management and franchising segments, which are eliminated in consolidation. Intersegment revenues relate to promotional award redemptions earned by our owned and leased hotels related to our co-branded credit cards and revenues earned under the loyalty program for stays at our owned and leased hotels and are eliminated in consolidation.

•

Americas management and franchising—This segment derives its earnings primarily from a combination of hotel management and licensing of our portfolio of brands to franchisees located in the United States, Latin America, Canada, and the Caribbean. This segment's revenues also include the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties as well as revenues from residential management operations. These costs relate primarily to payroll costs at managed properties where the Company is the employer, as well as costs associated with reservations, sales, marketing, technology, and the loyalty program operated on behalf of owners of managed and franchised properties. The intersegment revenues relate to management fees earned from the Company's owned and leased hotels and are eliminated in consolidation.

•

ASPAC management and franchising—This segment derives its earnings primarily from a combination of hotel management and licensing of our portfolio of brands to franchisees located in Southeast Asia, Greater China, Australia, South Korea, Japan, and Micronesia. This segment's revenues also include the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties. These costs relate primarily to reservations, sales, marketing, technology, and the loyalty program operated on behalf of owners of managed and franchised properties. The intersegment revenues relate to management fees earned from the Company's owned hotel and are eliminated in consolidation.


•	EAME/SW Asia management and franchising—This segment derives its earnings primarily from a combination of hotel management and licensing of our portfolio of brands to franchisees located in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India, Central Asia, and Nepal. This segment's revenues also include the

Table of Contents

reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties. These costs relate primarily to reservations, sales, marketing, technology, and the loyalty program operated on behalf of owners of managed and franchised properties. The intersegment revenues relate to management fees earned from the Company's owned and leased hotels and are eliminated in consolidation.

Our CODM evaluates performance based on owned and leased hotels revenues, management, franchise, and other fees revenues, and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, as we define it, is a non-GAAP measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation plus our pro rata share of unconsolidated hospitality ventures Adjusted EBITDA based on our ownership percentage of each venture, adjusted to exclude interest expense; provision for income taxes; depreciation and amortization; amortization of management and franchise agreement assets constituting payments to customers ("Contra revenue"); revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties; costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties; equity earnings (losses) from unconsolidated hospitality ventures; stock-based compensation expense; gains (losses) on sales of real estate; asset impairments; and other income (loss), net.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This quarterly report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include statements about the Company's plans, strategies, financial performance, the amount by which the Company intends to reduce its real estate asset base, and the anticipated time frame for such asset dispositions, prospects, or future events and involve known and unknown risks that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results, performance, or achievements may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "could," "expect," "intend," "plan," "seek," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "likely," "will," "would," and variations of these terms and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us and our management, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the factors discussed in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K; general economic uncertainty in key global markets and a worsening of global economic conditions or low levels of economic growth; the rate and the pace of economic recovery following economic downturns; levels of spending in business and leisure segments as well as consumer confidence; declines in occupancy and average daily rate; limited visibility with respect to future bookings; loss of key personnel; hostilities, or fear of hostilities, including future terrorist attacks, that affect travel; travel-related accidents; natural or man-made disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, wildfires, oil spills, nuclear incidents, and global outbreaks of pandemics or contagious diseases or fear of such outbreaks; our ability to successfully achieve certain levels of operating profits at hotels that have performance tests or guarantees in favor of our third-party owners; the impact of hotel renovations and redevelopments; risks associated with our capital allocation plans and common stock repurchase program and other forms of shareholder capital return, including the risk that our common stock repurchase program could increase volatility and fail to enhance shareholder value; our intention to pay a quarterly cash dividend and the amounts thereof, if any; the seasonal and cyclical nature of the real estate and hospitality businesses; changes in distribution arrangements, such as through internet travel intermediaries; changes in the tastes and preferences of our customers; relationships with colleagues and labor unions and changes in labor laws; the financial condition of, and our relationships with, third-party property owners, franchisees, and hospitality venture partners; the possible inability of third-party owners, franchisees, or development partners to access capital necessary to fund current operations or implement our plans for growth; risks associated with potential acquisitions and dispositions and the introduction of new brand concepts; the timing of acquisitions and dispositions, and our ability to successfully integrate completed acquisitions with existing operations; failure to successfully complete proposed transactions (including the failure to satisfy closing conditions or obtain required approvals); our ability to successfully execute on our strategy to expand our management and franchising business while at the same time reducing our real estate asset base within targeted timeframes and at expected values; declines in the value of our real estate assets; unforeseen terminations of our management or franchise agreements; changes in federal, state, local, or foreign tax law; the impact of changes in the tax code as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and uncertainty as to how some of those changes may be applied; increases in interest rates and operating costs; foreign exchange rate fluctuations or currency restructurings; lack of acceptance of new brands or innovation; general volatility of the capital markets and our ability to access such markets; changes in the competitive environment in our industry, including as a result of industry consolidation, and the markets where we operate; our ability to successfully grow the World of Hyatt loyalty program; cyber incidents and information technology failures; outcomes of legal or administrative proceedings; and violations of regulations or laws related to our franchising business. These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake or assume any obligation to update publicly any of these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions, or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying Notes, which appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Executive Overview

We provide hospitality and other services on a worldwide basis through the development, ownership, operation, management, franchising, and licensing of hospitality and wellness-related businesses. We develop, own, operate, manage, franchise, license, or provide services to a portfolio of properties consisting of full service hotels, select service hotels, resorts, and other properties, including branded spas and fitness studios, and timeshare, fractional, and other forms of residential, vacation and condominium ownership units.

At September 30, 2019, our worldwide hotel portfolio consisted of 887 full and select service hotels (216,495 rooms), including:


•	399 managed properties (121,785 rooms), all of which we operate under management and hotel services agreements with third-party property owners;


•	427 franchised properties (71,070 rooms), all of which are owned by third parties that have franchise agreements with us and are operated by third parties;


•	29 owned properties (13,737 rooms) (including 1 consolidated hospitality venture), 1 finance leased property (171 rooms), and 6 operating leased properties (2,071 rooms), all of which we manage; and


•	23 managed properties and 2 franchised properties owned or leased by unconsolidated hospitality ventures (7,661 rooms).

Our worldwide property portfolio also included:


•	3 destination wellness resorts (410 rooms), all of which we own and operate;


•	6 all-inclusive resorts (2,403 rooms), all of which are owned by a third party in which we hold common shares and which operates the resorts under franchise agreements with us;


•	16 vacation ownership properties under the Hyatt Residence Club brand and operated by third parties;


•	32 residential properties, which consist of branded residences and serviced apartments. We manage all of the serviced apartments and those branded residential units that participate in a rental program with an adjacent Hyatt-branded hotel; and


•	39 condominium ownership properties for which we provide services for the rental programs or homeowners associations (including 1 unconsolidated hospitality venture).

Our worldwide property portfolio also included branded spas and fitness studios, comprised of managed and leased locations. Additionally, through strategic relationships, we provide certain reservation and/or loyalty program services to hotels that are unaffiliated with our hotel portfolio and which operate under other tradenames or marks owned by such hotel or licensed by third parties.

We report our consolidated operations in U.S. dollars. Amounts are reported in millions, unless otherwise noted. Percentages may not recompute due to rounding, and percentage changes that are not meaningful are presented as "NM". Constant currency disclosures throughout Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are non-GAAP measures. See "—Non-GAAP Measures" for further discussion of constant currency disclosures. We manage our business within four reportable segments as described below:


•	Owned and leased hotels, which consists of our owned and leased full service and select service hotels and, for purposes of segment Adjusted EBITDA, our pro rata share of the Adjusted EBITDA of our unconsolidated hospitality ventures, based on our ownership percentage of each venture;


•	Americas management and franchising ("Americas"), which consists of our management and franchising of properties located in the United States, Latin America, Canada, and the Caribbean;


•	ASPAC management and franchising ("ASPAC"), which consists of our management and franchising of properties located in Southeast Asia, Greater China, Australia, South Korea, Japan, and Micronesia; and


•	EAME/SW Asia management and franchising ("EAME/SW Asia"), which consists of our management and franchising of properties located in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India, Central Asia, and Nepal.

Table of Contents

Within corporate and other, we include the results of Miraval and Exhale, Hyatt Residence Club license fees, results from our co-branded credit card, and unallocated corporate expenses. The results of our owned Miraval resorts are reported in owned and leased hotels revenues and owned and leased hotels expenses on our condensed consolidated statements of income. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 17 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for further discussion of our segment structure.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, we returned $133 million of capital to our shareholders through share repurchases and $20 million through our quarterly dividend payment.

Our financial performance for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 reflects an increase in net income attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation of $59 million compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Consolidated revenues increased $141 million or 13.1% ($146 million or 13.6%, excluding the impact of currency), during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The increases in management, franchise, and other fees, other revenues, and revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties of $15 million, $18 million, and $128 million, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018, were primarily driven by the acquisition of Two Roads. Management, franchise, and other fees also increased due to new and ramping hotels, while owned and leased hotels revenues decreased $20 million primarily due to transaction activity.

Our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 decreased $12 million, compared to the third quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA for our owned and leased hotels segment decreased $15 million primarily due to transaction activity. The impact of the acquisition of Two Roads was insignificant inclusive of $8 million of integration related expenses. See "—Segment Results" for further discussion. See "—Non-GAAP Measures" for an explanation of how we utilize Adjusted EBITDA, why we present it, and material limitations on its usefulness, as well as a reconciliation of our net income attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation to EBITDA and a reconciliation of EBITDA to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.

System-wide RevPAR was flat during the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, as strong transient demand at full service properties in the Americas and EAME/SWA was offset by weakened performance at Americas select service properties and ASPAC full service properties.

The decreases in owned and leased hotels expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year, were driven by decreases in comparable owned and leased hotels expense primarily due to net favorable currency impacts of $4 million and $13 million, respectively, as well as decreases in non-comparable owned and leased hotels expense due to dispositions, partially offset by acquisitions. See "—Segment Results" for a discussion of the non-comparable owned hotels activity.

Other direct costs. Other direct costs increased $20 million and $80 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to expenses incurred from the residential management operations acquired as part of Two Roads and the growth of our co-branded credit card program.

See "—Non-GAAP Measures" for further discussion of Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses increased during the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to $8 million of integration costs related to the acquisition of Two Roads. The increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, was driven by $27 million of expenses from the acquisition of Two Roads inclusive of $18 million of integration related costs.

related to the sales of Grand Hyatt San Francisco, Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort, and Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa.

Asset impairments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $9 million and $13 million of impairment charges, respectively, related to Two Roads management agreement intangibles for contracts that terminated or will terminate in the near-term. We may recognize further impairment charges in future periods if additional agreements terminate. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized a $21 million impairment charge related to goodwill associated with the HRMC transaction. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for further details.

Other income (loss), net. Other income (loss), net increased $34 million and $126 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year.

Provision for income taxes	(148		)	(194		)	46			24.0	%
Effective tax rate	25.0		%	21.2		%				(3.8	)%

The increase in the effective tax rate during the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, is primarily due to a low effective tax rate on the HRMC transaction in 2018, which was based on the local country tax laws unique to the transaction. Income tax expense increased primarily due to an increase in income before taxes driven by the gain on the sale of Hyatt Regency Atlanta in 2019.

The increase in the effective tax rate during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, is primarily due to the aforementioned low effective tax rate on the HRMC transaction in 2018. Income tax expense decreased primarily due to a decrease in income before taxes driven by the gain on the portfolio sale of Grand Hyatt San Francisco, Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort, and Hyatt Coconut Point Resort and Spa in 2018.

Total segment revenues	$	1,364	$	1,428	$	(64	)	(4.5	)%	$	(15	)

Comparable owned and leased hotels revenues were flat for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, resulting from modest growth within the United States, most notably in the New York City market, which benefited from improved group and banquet revenues, offset by decreased group revenues within the Orlando market. Additionally, improved performance in certain international markets was offset by net unfavorable currency impacts.

The decrease in non-comparable owned and leased hotels revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year, was driven by:


•	the dispositions of Hyatt Regency Mexico City, which occurred in the third quarter of 2018, and Hyatt Regency Atlanta, which occurred in the third quarter of 2019,


•	partially offset by the acquisition of Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa, which occurred in the third quarter of 2018.

The decrease in comparable owned and leased hotels revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, was driven by decreased group and banquet revenues, particularly within the Orlando market, and improved performance in certain international markets, offset by net unfavorable currency impacts.

The decrease in non-comparable owned and leased hotels revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, was driven by:


•	the aforementioned disposition of Hyatt Regency Mexico City and the dispositions of Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort, Grand Hyatt San Francisco, and Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa, which occurred in the first quarter of 2018,


•	partially offset by the acquisitions of Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa and Hyatt Regency Phoenix, which both occurred in the third quarter of 2018.

Comparable RevPAR at our owned and leased hotels during the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, was primarily impacted by improved transient business in a resort location outside of the United States, offset by decreased group demand in certain United States markets despite modest favorability from the shift in timing of the Jewish holidays.

The increase in comparable RevPAR at our owned and leased hotels during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in prior year, was also impacted by improved group business in certain European markets.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we removed one property from the comparable owned and leased hotels results as the hotel was sold.

Owned and leased hotels Adjusted EBITDA. The decreases in Adjusted EBITDA at our owned and leased hotels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year, were driven primarily by non-comparable owned and leased hotels, which decreased $11 million and $21 million, respectively, due to the aforementioned transaction activity. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year, which included a $2 million net unfavorable currency impact, was also driven by the aforementioned decreases in revenues at our comparable owned and leased hotels.

Pro rata share of unconsolidated hospitality ventures Adjusted EBITDA. Our pro rata share of Adjusted EBITDA from our unconsolidated hospitality ventures decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily driven by the sale of our ownership interest in an unconsolidated hospitality venture in 2018.

Management, franchise, and other fees increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily driven by a $6 million and $22 million increase in management fees, respectively, related to the acquisition of Two Roads and recently opened hotels. Franchise fees increased $4 million and $10 million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily attributable to new and ramping hotels. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, was partially offset by $8 million of legal settlement proceeds received in 2018 related to a franchise agreement termination for an unopened property.

Other revenues increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, due to revenues from the residential management operations acquired as part of Two Roads.

The increases in revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year, were driven by higher reimbursements for payroll and related costs primarily as a result of the acquisition of Two Roads.

United States managed group revenue booked in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 for stays in 2019 is lower as compared to 2018, while United States managed group revenue booked in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 for stays in future years is higher as compared to 2018.

Comparable full service hotels RevPAR increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increases were primarily driven by improved transient demand at certain resort locations outside of the United States and modest growth in the United States, primarily related to transient demand. The three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, was also favorably impacted by the aforementioned shift in timing of the Jewish Holidays.

Comparable select service hotels RevPAR decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 due largely to supply growth in the United States outpacing demand as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, no properties were removed from the comparable Americas full service system-wide hotel results. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, one property that left the chain was removed from the comparable Americas select service system-wide hotel results.

Management, franchise, and other fees increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily driven by increased management fees related to new hotels, due in part to the acquisition of Two Roads. The nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, also included a $2 million net unfavorable currency impact.

The increases in revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year, were driven by the overall growth of our third-party owned full and select service portfolio.

The decrease in comparable full service RevPAR during the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily driven by decreased performance in Greater China, including political unrest in Hong Kong and lower ADR in Macau.

The increase in comparable full service RevPAR during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year, was driven by strong demand in certain markets within Southeast Asia and improved ADR in Japan, partially offset by the aforementioned decreased performance in Greater China.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, one property that left the chain was removed from the comparable ASPAC full service system-wide hotel results. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, two properties that left the chain were removed from the comparable ASPAC full service system-wide hotel results, and no properties were removed from the comparable ASPAC select service system-wide hotel results.

The increases in comparable full service RevPAR during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year, were driven by increased performance in certain European markets, including one hotel in France that benefited from the completion of a renovation and in the United Kingdom, and Southwest Asia. The increases were partially offset by lower ADR in Russia which benefited from hosting the FIFA World Cup in 2018.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, no properties were removed from the comparable EAME/SW Asia full service system-wide hotel results. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, one property that left the chain was removed from the comparable EAME/SW Asia select service system-wide hotel results.

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") and EBITDA

We use the terms Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA throughout this quarterly report. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, as we define them, are non-GAAP measures. We define consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation plus our pro rata share of unconsolidated hospitality ventures Adjusted EBITDA based on our ownership percentage of each venture, adjusted to exclude the following items:


•	interest expense;


•	provision for income taxes;


•	depreciation and amortization;


•	amortization of management and franchise agreement assets constituting payments to customers ("Contra revenue");


•	revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties;


•	costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties;


•	equity earnings (losses) from unconsolidated hospitality ventures;


•	stock-based compensation expense;


•	gains (losses) on sales of real estate;


•	asset impairments; and


•	other income (loss), net.

We calculate consolidated Adjusted EBITDA by adding the Adjusted EBITDA of each of our reportable segments and eliminations to corporate and other Adjusted EBITDA.

Our board of directors and executive management team focus on Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance and compensation measure both on a segment and on a consolidated basis. Adjusted EBITDA assists us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operations both on a segment and on a consolidated basis. Our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker, also evaluates the performance of each of our reportable segments and determines how to allocate resources to those segments, in significant part, by assessing the Adjusted EBITDA of each segment. In addition, the compensation committee of our board of directors determines the annual variable compensation for certain members of our management based in part on consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, segment Adjusted EBITDA, or some combination of both.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it provides investors the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our operating performance and making compensation decisions and facilitates our comparison of results before these items with results from other companies within our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries and among companies within the same industry. For instance, interest expense and provision for income taxes are dependent upon company specifics, including capital structure, credit ratings, tax policies, and jurisdictions in which they operate, and therefore, can vary significantly across companies. Depreciation and amortization, as well as Contra revenue, are dependent on company policies including how the assets are utilized as well as the lives assigned to the assets. We exclude revenues for the reimbursement of costs and costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties which relate to the reimbursement of payroll costs and for system-wide services and programs that we operate for the benefit of our hotel owners as contractually we do not provide services or operate the related programs to generate a profit over the terms of the respective contracts. Over the long term, these programs and services are not designed to impact our economics, either positively or negatively. Therefore, we exclude the net impact when evaluating period-over-period changes in our operating results. We exclude stock-based compensation expense to remove the variability amongst companies resulting from different compensation plans companies have adopted. Finally, we exclude other items that are not core to our operations.

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not substitutes for net income attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation, net income, or any other measure prescribed by GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA. Although we believe that Adjusted EBITDA can make an evaluation of our operating performance more consistent because it removes items that do not reflect our core operations, other companies in our industry may define Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. As a result, it may be difficult to use Adjusted EBITDA or similarly named non-GAAP measures that other companies may use to compare the performance of those companies to our performance. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of the income generated by our business. Our management compensates for these limitations by reference to our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA supplementally. See our condensed consolidated statements of income in our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report.

See below for a reconciliation of net income attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation to EBITDA and a reconciliation of EBITDA to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses

Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses, as we define it, is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses exclude the impact of deferred compensation plans funded through rabbi trusts and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses assist us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operations, both on a segment and consolidated basis. See "—Results of Operations" for a reconciliation of selling, general, and administrative expenses to Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Constant dollar currency

We report the results of our operations both on an as-reported basis, as well as on a constant dollar basis. Constant dollar currency, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the effects of movements in foreign currency exchange rates between comparative periods. We believe constant dollar analysis provides valuable information regarding our results as it removes currency fluctuations from our operating results. We calculate constant dollar currency by restating prior-period local currency financial results at the current period's exchange rates. These restated amounts are then compared to our current period reported amounts to provide operationally driven variances in our results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance our business primarily with existing cash, short-term investments, and cash generated from our operations. As part of our business strategy, we use net proceeds from dispositions to support our acquisitions and new investment opportunities. When appropriate, we borrow cash under our revolving credit facility or from other third-party sources and may also raise funds by issuing debt or equity securities as necessary. We maintain a cash investment policy that emphasizes preservation of capital. We believe that our cash position, short-term investments, and cash from operations, together with borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility and our access to the capital markets, will be adequate to meet all of our funding requirements and capital deployment objectives for the foreseeable future.

We may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase additional amounts of our outstanding equity and/or debt securities through cash purchases and/or exchanges for other securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or an accelerated share repurchase transaction. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Recent Transactions Affecting our Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, various transactions impacted our liquidity. See "—Sources and Uses of Cash."

Table of Contents

We define net debt as total debt less the total of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. We consider net debt and its components to be an important indicator of liquidity and a guiding measure of capital structure strategy. Net debt is a non-GAAP measure and may not be computed the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table provides a summary of our debt to capital ratios:



	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
Consolidated debt (1)	$	1,623		$	1,634
Stockholders' equity	3,756			3,670
Total capital	5,379			5,304
Total debt to total capital	30.2		%	30.8		%
Consolidated debt (1)	1,623			1,634
Less: cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments	(723		)	(686		)
Net consolidated debt	$	900		$	948
Net debt to total capital	16.7		%	17.9		%

(1) Excludes approximately $564 million and $528 million of our share of unconsolidated hospitality venture indebtedness at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, substantially all of which is non-recourse to us and a portion of which we guarantee pursuant to separate agreements.

Capital Expenditures

We routinely make capital expenditures to enhance our business. We classify our capital expenditures into maintenance and technology, enhancements to existing properties, and investment in new properties under development or recently opened. We have been and will continue to be prudent with respect to our capital spending, taking into account our cash flow from operations.



	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018
Maintenance and technology	$	54	$	47
Enhancements to existing properties	90		97
Investment in new properties under development or recently opened	100		51
Total capital expenditures	$	244	$	195

The increase in investment in new properties under development or recently opened is primarily driven by continued renovation spend at Miraval properties and the development of a hotel in Philadelphia in 2019.

Senior Notes

The table below sets forth the outstanding principal balance of our Senior Notes at September 30, 2019. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually.



	Principal amount
2021 Notes	$	250
2023 Notes	350
2026 Notes	400
2028 Notes	400
Total Senior Notes	$	1,400

We are in compliance with all applicable covenants under the indenture governing our Senior Notes at September 30, 2019.

Revolving Credit Facility

We had no balance outstanding on our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements."

We are in compliance with all applicable covenants under the revolving credit facility at September 30, 2019.

Table of Contents

Letters of Credit

We issue letters of credit either under the revolving credit facility or directly with financial institutions. We had $286 million and $277 million in letters of credit issued directly with financial institutions outstanding at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These letters of credit had weighted-average fees of approximately 101 basis points and a range of maturity of up to approximately three years at September 30, 2019.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We have disclosed those estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our 2018 Form 10-K. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, we added a critical accounting estimate as detailed below.

Incremental Borrowing Rate and Accounting for Leases

In determining the present value of our operating ROU assets and lease liabilities, we estimate an IBR by applying a portfolio approach based on lease terms. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements."

At September 30, 2019, our operating lease liabilities are $428 million. A 1% decrease in our estimated IBR would increase our operating lease liabilities by approximately $40 million.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. In certain situations, we seek to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates by entering into financial arrangements to provide a hedge against a portion of the risks associated with such volatility. We continue to have exposure to such risks to the extent they are not hedged. We enter into derivative financial arrangements to the extent they meet the objectives described above, and we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. At September 30, 2019, we were a party to hedging transactions, including the use of derivative financial instruments, as discussed below.

Interest Rate Risk

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes due to our borrowing activities. Our objective is to manage the risk of interest rate changes on the results of operations, cash flows, and the market value of our debt by creating an appropriate balance between our fixed and floating-rate debt. We enter into interest rate derivative transactions from time to time, including interest rate swaps and interest rate locks, in order to maintain a level of exposure to interest rate variability that we deem acceptable.

At September 30, 2019, we had outstanding interest rate locks that hedge a portion of the risk of changes in the benchmark interest rate associated with long-term debt we anticipate issuing in the future. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements." At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we did not hold any interest rate swap contracts.

The following table sets forth the contractual maturities and the total fair values at September 30, 2019 for our financial instruments materially affected by interest rate risk:



	Maturities by Period
	2019		2020		2021		2022		2023		Thereafter		Total carrying amount (1)			Total fair value
Fixed-rate debt	$	—	$	5	$	255	$	5	$	356	$	958	$	1,579		$	1,685

Foreign Currency Exposures and Exchange Rate Instruments

We transact business in various foreign currencies and utilize foreign currency forward contracts to offset our exposure associated with the fluctuations of certain foreign currencies. The U.S. dollar equivalents of the notional amounts of the outstanding forward contracts, the majority of which relate to intercompany transactions, with terms of less than one year, were $234 million and $210 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

We intend to offset the gains and losses related to our third-party debt and intercompany transactions with gains or losses on our foreign currency forward contracts such that there is a negligible effect on net income. Our exposure to market risk has not materially changed from what we previously disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the effects of these derivative instruments resulted in $9 million and $14 million of net gains, respectively, recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the effects of these derivative instruments resulted in $3 million and $11 million of net gains, respectively, recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income. We offset the gains and losses on our foreign currency forward contracts with gains and losses related to our intercompany loans and transactions, such that there is a negligible effect to net income.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. We are in the process of integrating Two Roads into our internal control over financial reporting processes.

Except as described above, there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. We implemented various internal controls related to our accounting for leases under the new accounting standards upon adoption. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of the new standards.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims, workers' compensation and other employee claims, intellectual property claims, and claims related to our management of certain hotel properties. Most occurrences involving liability, claims of negligence, and employees are covered by insurance, in each case, with solvent insurance carriers. We recognize a liability when we believe the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

In March 2018, a putative class action was filed against the Company and several other hotel companies in federal district court in Illinois, Case No. 1:18-cv-01959, seeking an unspecified amount of damages and equitable relief for an alleged violation of the federal antitrust laws. In December 2018, a second lawsuit was filed against the Company by TravelPass Group, LLC, Partner Fusion, Inc., and Reservation Counter, LLC in federal district court in Texas, Case No. 5:18-cv-00153, for an alleged violation of federal antitrust laws arising from similar conduct alleged in the Illinois case and seeking an unspecified amount of monetary damages. The Company disputes the allegations in these lawsuits and will defend its interests vigorously. We currently do not believe the ultimate outcome of this litigation will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

At September 30, 2019, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in response to Item 1A to Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
