Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (NYSE: HGV) announces the board’s approval for the repurchase of an additional $200 million shares under the company’s Share Repurchase Program announced in November 2018, bringing the total funds allocated to the repurchase program to $400 million.

“In the first quarter of 2019, we completed the initial $200 million authorization of our stock repurchase program, demonstrating our ongoing focus on delivering shareholder value while maintaining the financial flexibility to continue making the necessary investments in our business,” says Mark Wang, president and CEO of Hilton Grand Vacations. “Today’s $200 million follow-on authorization is indicative of our balance sheet strength and also reinforces our capital allocation strategy as detailed at our year-end 2018 investor day.”

The timing and amounts of any repurchases under the repurchase program will depend on certain factors, including, but not limited to, market conditions and prices; available funds; and alternative uses of capital. The repurchase program may be carried out through open-market purchases, block trades or other transactions. Hilton Grand Vacations expects to fund the repurchase program through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, receivables funding and bank facilities.
