Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, N.J., USA Announces Second-Quarter 2025 Financial Results
RAHWAY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, N.J., USA (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2025. "Earlier this month, we were pleased to announce our pending acquisition of Verona Pharma, which augments our portfolio and pipeline and is another example of acting decisively when science and value align,' said Robert M. Davis, chairman and chief executive officer. 'Today, we announced a multiyear optimization initiative that will redirect investment and resources from more mature areas of our business to our burgeoning array of new growth drivers, further enable the transformation of our portfolio, and drive our next chapter of productive, innovation-driven growth. With these actions, I am confident that we are well positioned to generate near- and long-term value for our shareholders and, most importantly, deliver for our patients.' Financial Summary For the second quarter of 2025, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) earnings per share (EPS) assuming dilution was $1.76 and non-GAAP EPS was $2.13. GAAP and non-GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2025 include a charge of $0.07 per share for an upfront payment to Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Hengrui Pharma) upon closing of a license agreement. Non-GAAP EPS excludes acquisition- and divestiture-related costs, costs related to restructuring programs, and income and losses from investments in equity securities. Non-GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2025 also excludes tax benefits primarily resulting from favorable audit adjustments. Non-GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2024 also excludes a tax benefit due to a reduction in reserves for unrecognized income tax benefits, resulting from the expiration of the statute of limitations for assessments related to the 2019 federal tax return year. Year-to-date results can be found in the attached tables. Second-Quarter Sales Performance The following table reflects sales of the Company's top products and significant performance drivers. Second-Quarter Expense, EPS and Related Information The table below presents selected expense information. GAAP Expense, EPS and Related Information Gross margin was 77.5% for the second quarter of 2025 compared with 76.8% for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the favorable impact of product mix, partially offset by higher restructuring costs and inventory write-offs. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 3% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower administrative, restructuring and promotional costs. Research and development (R&D) expenses were $4.0 billion in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 16% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $200 million charge for an upfront payment made in the second quarter of 2025 for a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, increased clinical development spending, higher compensation and benefit costs, and higher restructuring costs. Other (income) expense, net, was $7 million of income in the second quarter of 2025 compared with $42 million of expense in the second quarter of 2024. The effective tax rate of 11.4% for the second quarter of 2025 includes a 2.9 percentage point favorable impact due to tax benefits primarily resulting from favorable audit adjustments. GAAP EPS was $1.76 for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $2.14 for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease reflects increased operating expenses driven by higher restructuring costs and research and development spending, a charge related to the closing of a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, unfavorable tax impacts, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange. Non-GAAP Expense, EPS and Related Information Non-GAAP gross margin was 82.2% for the second quarter of 2025 compared with 80.9% for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the favorable impact of product mix, partially offset by higher inventory write-offs. Non-GAAP SG&A expenses were $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 2% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower administrative and promotional costs. Non-GAAP R&D expenses were $4.0 billion in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 15% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $200 million charge for an upfront payment made in the second quarter of 2025 for a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, increased clinical development spending, and higher compensation and benefit costs. Non-GAAP other (income) expense, net, was $54 million of expense in the second quarter of 2025 compared with $108 million of expense in the second quarter of 2024. The non-GAAP effective tax rate was 15.0% for the second quarter of 2025. Non-GAAP EPS was $2.13 for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $2.28 for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease reflects increased operating expenses driven by higher research and development spending, a charge related to the closing of a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net income and EPS is provided in the table that follows. Planned Acquisition of Verona Pharma On July 9, 2025, the Company furthered its science-led business development strategy by announcing an agreement under which the Company, through a subsidiary, will acquire Verona Pharma plc (Verona Pharma) for $107 per American Depository Share, each of which represents eight Verona Pharma ordinary shares, for a total transaction value of approximately $10 billion. Through the acquisition, the Company will add Ohtuvayre, a first-in-class selective dual inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 and 4 (PDE3 and PDE4), to its growing cardio-pulmonary pipeline and portfolio. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Ohtuvayre in June 2024 for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adult patients. It is the first novel inhaled mechanism for the treatment of COPD in more than 20 years. The transaction is anticipated to close in the fourth quarter of 2025. Pipeline and Portfolio Highlights In the second quarter, the Company continued to advance its broad and diverse pipeline with multiple regulatory and clinical milestones. In oncology, the FDA approved KEYTRUDA as part of a therapy regimen for the treatment of certain adult patients with resectable locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), based on results from the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-689 trial. This approval is the first perioperative anti-PD-1 treatment regimen for adults with resectable locally advanced HNSCC whose tumors express PD-L1 (CPS ≥1). In addition, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) in Japan approved WELIREG as monotherapy for the treatment of adults with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease-associated tumors, and for adults with unresectable or metastatic RCC that has progressed after chemotherapy. At the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting, the Company announced new research across more than 25 types of cancer in multiple treatment settings. Data were presented for several candidates, including MK-1084, an investigational oral selective KRAS G12C inhibitor, and from the Company's pipeline of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). The Company also presented data from Phase 3 trials evaluating new combination regimens with KEYTRUDA, and longer-term data for studies of KEYTRUDA and WELIREG, with the KEYTRUDA studies including people with earlier stages of cancer. The Company announced results from the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-B96 trial (also known as ENGOT-ov65) evaluating KEYTRUDA plus chemotherapy, which met its primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) for the treatment of patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer whose tumors express PD-L1 and in all comers, as well as a secondary endpoint of overall survival (OS) in patients whose tumors express PD-L1. In addition, a pre-specified interim analysis of the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-937 study found that compared to placebo, KEYTRUDA did not show a statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint of recurrence-free survival for certain patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Also, a pre-specified interim analysis of the Phase 3 LEAP-014 trial found that KEYTRUDA plus Lenvima, in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy, did not show a statistically significant improvement in its primary endpoint of OS compared to KEYTRUDA plus chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In vaccines and infectious diseases, the Company received FDA approval of ENFLONSIA for the prevention of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) lower respiratory tract disease in newborns and infants who are born during or entering their first RSV season. ENFLONSIA is the first and only RSV preventive option administered to infants using the same dose regardless of weight. The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) also recommended ENFLONSIA for the prevention of RSV in infants younger than 8 months of age born during or entering their first RSV season. In addition, the Company announced initiation of the MOBILIZE-1 Phase 3 trial evaluating V181, an investigational single-dose quadrivalent vaccine for the prevention of dengue disease. In addition, the FDA accepted a New Drug Application (NDA) for doravirine/islatravir, an investigational, once-daily, oral, two-drug regimen for the treatment of adults with virologically suppressed HIV-1 based on the Phase 3 MK-8591A-051 and MK-8591A-052 trials. The FDA set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of April 28, 2026. The Company also announced the initiation of the EXPrESSIVE Phase 3 trials for MK-8527, its investigational once-monthly oral candidate for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). In cardiovascular disease, the Company announced positive topline results from Phase 3 CORALreef HeFH and CORALreef AddOn, the first two of three Phase 3 clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of enlicitide decanoate, an investigational, oral proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor being evaluated for the treatment of adults with hyperlipidemia already on lipid-lowering therapies, including at least a statin. In both trials, enlicitide demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. If approved, it would be the first marketed oral PCSK9 inhibitor. In addition, the FDA granted priority review for a new supplemental Biologics License Application for WINREVAIR seeking approval to update the U.S. product label based on compelling results from the Phase 3 ZENITH trial. The FDA has set a PDUFA date of Oct. 25, 2025. The Company also provided an update on the Phase 3 HYPERION study evaluating WINREVAIR in recently diagnosed adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In the study, WINREVAIR added on top of background therapy within 12 months after initial diagnosis of PAH demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in the risk of clinical worsening events when compared to placebo. Further, the MHLW in Japan approved sotatercept for the treatment of adults with PAH under the trademark AIRWIN. It is the first activin signaling inhibitor therapy for PAH approved in Japan. In the Animal Health business, the FDA approved BRAVECTO QUANTUM, an injectable formulation of BRAVECTO for dogs for the treatment and persistent killing of fleas and ticks. In addition, the European Commission (EC) approved NUMELVI tablets for dogs, a once-daily, second-generation Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, indicated for the treatment of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis including atopic dermatitis and treatment of clinical manifestations of atopic dermatitis. Notable recent news releases on the Company's pipeline and portfolio are provided in the table that follows. Visit the News Releases section of the Company's website to read the releases*. New Multiyear Optimization Initiative, Which Includes a Restructuring Program The Company launched a new multiyear optimization initiative to enable the transformation of its portfolio by generating an expected $3.0 billion in annual cost savings from productivity actions, which will be fully reinvested to support new product launches and its pipeline across multiple therapeutic areas. In July 2025, as part of this initiative, the Company approved a new restructuring program, in which it expects to eliminate certain administrative, sales and R&D positions. The Company will, however, continue to hire employees into new roles across strategic growth areas of the business. In addition, the Company will reduce its global real estate footprint and continue to optimize its manufacturing network, aligning the geography of its global manufacturing to its customers and reflecting changes in the Company's business. The Company anticipates cumulative pretax costs related to the program to be approximately $3.0 billion. For the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded charges in its GAAP results of $649 million related to this restructuring program. The Company expects the actions under the restructuring program to result in annual cost savings of approximately $1.7 billion, which will be substantially realized by the end of 2027. This restructuring program is part of the multiyear optimization initiative expected to achieve $3.0 billion in annual cost savings by the end of 2027. Manufacturing and R&D Investment The Company continued to make long-term investments in its U.S. manufacturing and R&D capabilities. This includes the start of construction for a $1.0 billion, 470,000-square-foot state-of-the-art biologics center of excellence in Wilmington, Delaware, which will serve as a launch and commercial production facility and the primary U.S. manufacturing site for KEYTRUDA. In addition, the Company announced an $895 million expansion of its Animal Health manufacturing facility in De Soto, Kansas; the 200,000-square-foot facility will increase capacity for Animal Health vaccines and biologic products. Full-Year 2025 Financial Outlook The following table summarizes the Company's full-year financial outlook. The Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP other (income) expense, net, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, given it cannot predict with reasonable certainty the amounts necessary for such a reconciliation, including intangible asset impairment charges, legal settlements, and income and losses from investments in equity securities either owned directly or through ownership interests in investment funds, without unreasonable effort. These items are inherently difficult to forecast and could have a significant impact on the Company's future GAAP results. The Company now expects full-year 2025 sales to be between $64.3 billion and $65.3 billion, including a revised negative impact of foreign exchange of approximately 0.5% at mid-July 2025 exchange rates. The Company now expects its full-year non-GAAP effective income tax rate to be between 15.0% and 16.0%. The Company now expects its full-year non-GAAP EPS to be between $8.87 and $8.97, including a revised negative impact of foreign exchange of approximately $0.15 per share. This revised non-GAAP EPS range continues to reflect the impacts of a one-time charge of $200 million (recorded in the second quarter of 2025) for an upfront payment made in connection with the closing of a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma and the one-time charge of $300 million (to be recorded in the third quarter of 2025) related to a payment to LaNova for the completion of the technology transfer for MK-2010, which will impact EPS by approximately $0.16 in the aggregate. In 2024, non-GAAP EPS of $7.65 was negatively impacted by a net charge of $1.28 per share related to certain asset acquisitions, licensing agreements and collaborations. The financial outlook does not include the anticipated impact of the announced acquisition of Verona Pharma. Consistent with past practice, the financial outlook does not assume additional significant potential business development transactions. The $200 million of costs previously included in the Company's financial outlook related to the impact of tariffs is unchanged pending the outcome of additional potential government actions.

Travel + Leisure Co. Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE:TNL), a leading leisure travel company, today reported second quarter 2025 financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Highlights and outlook include: Net income of $108 million, $1.62 diluted earnings per share, on net revenue of $1.02 billion Adjusted EBITDA of $250 million and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.65 (1) Vacation Ownership revenue of $853 million, a 6 percent increase year-over-year Volume per guest (VPG) of $3,251, a 7 percent increase year-over-year, on a 3 percent increase in tours Expects third quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $250 million to $260 million and reaffirms full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $955 million to $985 million Returned $107 million to shareholders through $37 million of dividends and $70 million of share repurchases 'Thanks to the exceptional work of the entire Travel + Leisure Co. team, we delivered another strong quarter. We saw healthy year-over-year growth in VOI sales, with gains in both tour flow and volume per guest. Our VPG performance remains strong as we ended the quarter above the high end of our guidance range,' said Michael D. Brown, President and CEO of Travel + Leisure Co. 'Our multi-brand strategy continued to gain momentum in the first half of the year. We announced three exciting new projects: a Margaritaville Vacation Club resort in Orlando, a new Sports Illustrated Resorts location in Nashville, and the launch of our new Asia based Accor Vacation Club in Indonesia. These developments underscore the strength of our brand partnerships and our ability to grow and diversify our vacation ownership portfolio.' (1) This press release includes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted diluted EPS, Adjusted free cash flow, Gross VOI sales and Adjusted net income, which are measures that are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. ('GAAP'). See "Presentation of Financial Information" and the tables for the definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are presented in this press release only on a non-GAAP basis because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation is available without unreasonable effort. Expand Business Segment Results Vacation Ownership $ in millions Q2 2025 Q2 2024 % change Revenue $853 $807 6 % Adjusted EBITDA $218 $206 6 % Expand Vacation Ownership revenue increased 6% to $853 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. Net vacation ownership interest (VOI) sales increased 7% year over year despite a higher provision rate. Gross VOI sales increased 8% driven by a 7% increase in VPG and a 3% increase in tours. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA was $218 million compared to $206 million in the prior year period driven by the revenue growth. Travel and Membership $ in millions Q2 2025 Q2 2024 % change Revenue $166 $177 (6) % Adjusted EBITDA $55 $62 (11) % Expand Travel and Membership revenue decreased 6% to $166 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. This was driven by a 7% decrease in transaction revenue due to lower exchange transactions. Transactions were impacted by an increasing mix of exchange members with a club affiliation who have a lower transaction propensity. Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA decreased 11% to $55 million compared to the same prior year period. This decrease was driven by a higher mix of travel club transactions, which generate lower margins, partially offset by cost savings resulting from the strategic restructuring at the end of 2024. Balance Sheet and Liquidity Net Debt — On June 25, 2025, the Company refinanced its $1.0 billion revolving credit facility extending maturity from October 2026 to June 2030, and among other things, reducing pricing spreads on borrowings and letters of credit at all pricing levels by 25 basis points. As of June 30, 2025, the Company's leverage ratio for covenant purposes was 3.4x. The Company had $3.6 billion of corporate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2025, which excluded $2.0 billion of non-recourse debt related to its securitized notes receivables portfolio. Timeshare Receivables Financing — During the second quarter of 2025, the Company renewed its $600 million USD timeshare receivables conduit facility, extending the end of the commitment period from September 2025 to August 2027 and making certain other amendments, including to the advance rate. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company closed on a $300 million term securitization transaction with a weighted average coupon of 5.10% and a 98% advance rate. Cash Flow — For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $353 million compared to $221 million in the prior year period. Adjusted free cash flow was $123 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $112 million in the same period of 2024 due to a decrease in cash utilization for working capital items, partially offset by higher net payments on non-recourse debt. Share Repurchases — During the second quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 1.5 million shares of common stock for $70 million at a weighted average price of $46.75 per share. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $303 million remaining in its share repurchase authorization. Dividend — The Company paid $37 million ($0.56 per share) in cash dividends on June 30, 2025 to shareholders of record as of June 13, 2025. Management will recommend a third quarter dividend of $0.56 per share for approval by the Company's Board of Directors in August 2025. Outlook The Company is providing guidance for the third quarter 2025: Adjusted EBITDA of $250 million to $260 million Gross VOI sales of $650 million to $680 million VPG of $3,200 to $3,250 The Company is providing guidance for the 2025 full year: Adjusted EBITDA of $955 million to $985 million Gross VOI sales of $2.4 billion to $2.5 billion VPG of $3,200 to $3,250 (vs. prior outlook of $3,050 to $3,150) This guidance is presented only on a non-GAAP basis because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is available without unreasonable effort, primarily due to uncertainties relating to the occurrence or amount of these adjustments that may arise in the future. Where one or more of the currently unavailable items is applicable, some items could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to GAAP reported results. Conference Call Information Travel + Leisure Co. will hold a conference call with investors to discuss the Company's results and outlook today at 8:00 a.m. ET. Participants may listen to a simultaneous webcast of the conference call, which may be accessed through the Company's website at or by dialing 877-733-4794 ten minutes before the scheduled start time. For those unable to listen to the live broadcast, an archive of the webcast will be available on the Company's website for 90 days beginning at 12:00 p.m. ET today. Presentation of Financial Information Financial information discussed in this press release includes non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted diluted EPS, Adjusted free cash flow, gross VOI sales and Adjusted net income, which include or exclude certain items, as well as non-GAAP guidance. The Company utilizes non-GAAP measures, defined in Table 7, on a regular basis to assess performance of its reportable segments and allocate resources. These non-GAAP measures differ from reported GAAP results and are intended to illustrate what management believes are relevant period-over-period comparisons and are helpful to investors when considered with GAAP measures as an additional tool for further understanding and assessing the Company's ongoing operating performance by adjusting for items which in our view do not necessarily reflect ongoing performance. Management also internally uses these measures to assess our operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and in evaluating or making selected compensation decisions. Exclusion of items in the Company's non-GAAP presentation should not be considered an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Full reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the reported periods appear in the financial tables section of the press release. The Company may use its website as a means of disclosing information concerning its operations, results and prospects, including information which may constitute material nonpublic information, and for complying with its disclosure obligations under SEC Regulation FD. Disclosure of such information will be included on the Company's website in the Investor Relations section at Accordingly, investors should monitor that Investor Relations section of the Company website, in addition to accessing its press releases, its submissions and filings with the SEC, and its publicly noticed conference calls and webcasts.

In addition to GAAP financial measures, the Company provides Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted diluted EPS to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods, by adjusting for certain items which in our view do not necessarily reflect ongoing performance.

Expand Table 7 Definitions Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share: A non-GAAP measure, defined by the Company as Adjusted net income divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is useful to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods. Adjusted EBITDA: A non-GAAP measure, defined by the Company as net income from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (excluding consumer financing interest), early extinguishment of debt, interest income (excluding consumer financing revenues) and income taxes, each of which is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation costs, separation and restructuring costs, legacy items, transaction and integration costs associated with mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures, asset impairments/recoveries, gains and losses on sale/disposition of business, and items that meet the conditions of unusual and/or infrequent. Legacy items include the resolution of and adjustments to certain contingent assets and liabilities related to acquisitions of continuing businesses and dispositions, including the separation of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and Avis Budget Group, Inc. (ABG), and the sale of the vacation rentals businesses. Integration costs represent certain non-recurring costs directly incurred to integrate mergers and/or acquisitions into the existing business. We believe that when considered with GAAP measures, Adjusted EBITDA is useful to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods. We also internally use these measures to assess our operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and in evaluating or making selected compensation decisions. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income/(loss) or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP and our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA Margin: A non-GAAP measure, represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods. Adjusted Free Cash Flow: A non-GAAP measure, defined by the Company as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less property and equipment additions (capital expenditures) plus the sum of proceeds and principal payments of non-recourse vacation ownership debt, while also adding back cash paid for transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures, separation adjustments associated with the spin-off of Wyndham Hotels, and certain adjustments related to COVID-19. TNL believes adjusted FCF to be a useful operating performance measure to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash for uses other than capital expenditures and, after debt service and other obligations, its ability to grow its business through acquisitions and equity investments, as well as its ability to return cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. A limitation of using Adjusted free cash flow versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities as a means for evaluating TNL is that Adjusted free cash flow does not represent the total cash movement for the period as detailed in the consolidated statement of cash flows. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion: A non-GAAP measure, defined by the Company as Adjusted free cash flow as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA. We use this non-GAAP performance measure to assist in evaluating our operating performance and the quality of our earnings as represented by adjusted EBITDA, and to evaluate the performance of our current and prospective operating and strategic initiatives in generating cash flows from our earnings performance. This measure also assists investors in evaluating our operating performance, management of our assets, and ability to generate cash flows from our earnings, as well as facilitating period-to-period comparisons. Adjusted Net Income: A non-GAAP measure, defined by the Company as net income from continuing operations adjusted to exclude separation and restructuring costs, legacy items, transaction and integration costs associated with mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures, amortization of acquisition-related assets, debt modification costs, impairments, gains and losses on sale/disposition of business, and items that meet the conditions of unusual and/or infrequent and the tax effect of such adjustments. Legacy items include the resolution of and adjustments to certain contingent assets and liabilities related to acquisitions of continuing businesses and dispositions, including the separation of Wyndham Hotels and ABG, and the sale of the vacation rentals businesses. Adjusted Net Income is useful to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods. Average Number of Exchange Members: Represents the average number of paid members in our vacation exchange programs who are considered to be in good standing, during a given reporting period. Free Cash Flow (FCF): A non-GAAP measure, defined by TNL as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less property and equipment additions (capital expenditures) plus the sum of proceeds and principal payments of non-recourse vacation ownership debt. TNL believes FCF to be a useful operating performance measure to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash for uses other than capital expenditures and, after debt service and other obligations, its ability to grow its business through acquisitions and equity investments, as well as its ability to return cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. A limitation of using FCF versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities as a means for evaluating TNL is that FCF does not represent the total cash movement for the period as detailed in the consolidated statement of cash flows. Gross Vacation Ownership Interest Sales: A non-GAAP measure, represents sales of vacation ownership interests (VOIs), including sales under the fee-for-service program before the effect of loan loss provisions. We believe that Gross VOI sales provide an enhanced understanding of the performance of our vacation ownership business because it directly measures the sales volume of this business during a given reporting period. Leverage Ratio: The Company calculates leverage ratio as net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement. Net Debt: Net debt equals total debt outstanding, less non-recourse vacation ownership debt and cash and cash equivalents. Tours: Represents the number of tours taken by guests in our efforts to sell VOIs. Travel and Membership Revenue per Transaction: Represents transaction revenue divided by transactions, provided in two categories; Exchange, which is primarily RCI, and Travel Club. Travel and Membership Transactions: Represents the number of exchanges and travel bookings recognized as revenue during the period, net of cancellations. This measure is provided in two categories; Exchange, which is primarily RCI, and Travel Club. Volume Per Guest (VPG): Represents Gross VOI sales (excluding telesales and virtual sales) divided by the number of tours. The Company has excluded non-tour sales in the calculation of VPG because non-tour sales are generated by a different marketing channel. We believe that VPG provides an enhanced understanding of the performance of our Vacation Ownership business because it directly measures the efficiency of its tour selling efforts during a given reporting period.

The Big Beautiful Bill may have just quietly boosted Big Tech earnings
Part of Trump's tax bill could give Big Tech a boost to earnings. The bill allows upfront expensing of R&D costs, enhancing cash flow for software firms. Microsoft, Oracle, and Salesforce are some of the biggest beneficiaries, Morgan Stanley said. President Donald Trump's new tax bill hands businesses major tax perks, but it's especially generous to Big Tech — and it could deliver an earnings boost that's not yet been priced in by the market. Specifically, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act's research and development (R&D) expensing guidelines will create a "cash flow tailwind" for software companies, Morgan Stanley said this week. Previously, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act required companies to spread out domestic R&D costs over the course of five years starting in 2022. But now, the new tax bill allows companies to expense those R&D costs upfront, restoring a more favorable tax treatment that lowers companies' taxable income. And to make the deal even sweeter, the new tax bill allows for retroactive deductions of previously deferred R&D costs, allowing companies to claim tax savings from previous years all at once. There's an additional accounting wrinkle: According to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the rulebook that companies follow when reporting earnings to Wall Street, R&D expense must be expensed immediately even if the costs are being paid over the period of five years, as was the case under the previous legislation. This discrepancy means companies actually paid more in taxes up front than their GAAP incomes would suggest, creating a deferred tax asset that allowed companies to take a tax deduction in later years. Now, with the One Big Beautiful Bill, companies can take advantage of those deferred tax assets earlier and deduct R&D costs immediately going forward. "The option to expense over two years, or to remain on the five-year amortization schedule, is more attractive for companies where full accelerated expensing in the first year would put them in a net loss position for tax purposes," Keith Weiss, technology equity analyst at Morgan Stanley, wrote on Tuesday. Software companies in particular stand to be big beneficiaries of the provision in the bill, as they spend heavily on R&D to develop new products. Microsoft has spent an average of $27 billion a year on R&D over the last three years. Others, like Oracle, Salesforce, and Adobe, have spent between $3.5 to $8 billion annually. They also have significant deferred tax assets that they can leverage to boost their free cash flow next year. According to Morgan Stanley, Microsoft could see a 4% boost to its free cash flow margin. Oracle and Salesforce are projected to benefit by around 6%. The biggest software winner on an incremental basis is Okta, which Morgan Stanley expects to receive a margin boost of nearly 12%.
