Bluegreen Vacations Holding Corporation Completes $172 Million Securitization of Vacation Ownership Receivables
Bluegreen Vacations Holding Corporation (NYSE: BVH) (OTCQX: BVHBB) (the “Company” or “Bluegreen Vacations”), announced today the completion of a private offering and sale of approximately $172.0 million of vacation ownership interest (“VOI”) receivable-backed Notes (the "2022-A Term Securitization").
The 2022-A Term Securitization consisted of the issuance of three tranches of VOI receivable-backed Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) as follows: approximately $71.0 million of Class A Notes, approximately $56.5 million of Class B Notes, and approximately $44.5 million of Class C Notes. The interest rates on the Class A Notes, Class B Notes and Class C Notes are 4.12%, 4.61% and 5.35%, respectively, which blends to an overall weighted average note interest rate of approximately 4.60%. The gross advance rate for this transaction was 88.3%. The Notes mature in September 2037. A portion of the proceeds from the Notes sale received at closing were used to pay down certain of the Company’s receivable-backed debt facilities. The remainder of the proceeds will be used primarily for general corporate purposes.
“We are pleased to complete this securitization in a challenging capital markets and interest rate environment. This securitization, along with our previously completed renewal and extension of our corporate facility, positions us well for continued growth in our business. Our use of proceeds to pay down certain of our other receivable-backed debt facilities is expected to provide us with availability under those facilities to support our current and post-pandemic initiatives and operations,” commented Ray Lopez, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of Bluegreen Vacations.
The transaction was completed in reliance upon Rule 144A and Regulation S as a private placement of securities not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities law. All of such securities having been sold, this announcement of their sale appears as a matter of record only. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. (“KeyCM”) and BofA Securities acted as joint bookrunners and co-lead managers and Truist Securities acted as co-manager with all being the initial purchasers of the Notes. KeyCM also acted as structuring agent for the transaction.
